Objective To investigate the alterations in skeletal muscle function and mass in an experimental mouse model of high-intensity exercise in a hot and humid environment.Methods Twenty-four male C57BL/6J mice(7～8 weeks old,weighing 21.30±0.67 g)were randomly assigned to a control group(CON group),a normal temperature and humidity exercise group(NE group),and a high temperature and humidity exercise group(HE group),with 8 mice in each group.The HE group was subjected to a high-temperature simulation chamber,maintaining a temperature of 37～39℃and humidity of 70%～80%,for a 60-minute exercise intervention at a 10° incline and 80%of maximum velocity(12 min of exercise followed by 8 min of rest,for 3 cycles).The CON group did not exercise,while the NE group exercised in the same manner in a normal temperature and humidity environment.The overall condition of the mice was evaluated by monitoring their body weight and analyzing their body composition.Their serum creatinine and urea levels were detected using an automated biochemical analyzer.After exercise,skeletal muscle function in the mice of each group was assessed by measuring their grip strength and exhaustion time.The skeletal muscle contractility and resistance to fatigue were evaluated using an in situ/in vivo/ex vivo muscle testing system.HE staining was employed to observe the morphological and structural changes in the skeletal muscles,and the average cross-sectional area and diameter of the muscle fibers were analyzed.Genes related to protein synthesis(Eif4ebp1,p70S6k)and breakdown(Foxo3,Fbxo32,Trim63)and heat stress-related genes(Hsf-1,Hspa1a,Hsp90aa)were quantified using RT-qPCR.Results ① Compared with the CON and NE groups,the HE group exhibited significant decreases in body weight(P<0.01)and lean body mass(P<0.05),an upward trend of creatinine level(P<0.05),and increases in the urea content(P<0.01).② The mice in the HE group had notably reduced grip strength(P<0.001),diminished skeletal muscle contraction,and weakened resistance to fatigue(P<0.05)than the CON and NE groups.③ The HE group demonstrated a reduction in the average cross-sectional area of muscle fibers(P<0.05)and a decrease in average fiber diameter(P<0.05),with particular up-regulation of Fbxo32,Trim63 and Eif4ebp1(P<0.01)and down-regulation of p70S6k(P<0.05)in comparison to the NE and CON groups.④ The expression levels of heat stress-related genes were higher in the HE group than the CON and NE groups(P<0.05).Conclusion High-intensity exercise in a hot and humid environment can lead to a decline in skeletal muscle function and mass in mice,potentially due to the disturbance of skeletal muscle protein synthesis and degradation triggered by excessive heat stress.

Lung cancer is one of the most prevalent malignancies with the highest morbidity and mortality rates worldwide. In recent years, with the development of immune-oncology research and several therapeutic antibodies have reach the clinic, many breakthroughs have been made in immunotherapy. The advent of immunotherapy has revolutionized the treatment of NSCLC, but the response and durable clinical benefit are only observed in a small subset of patients. Therefore, strategies to screen the potential beneficial population and improve the efficacy of immunotherapy remain an essential topic. In the current article, the author review the biomarkers that have potential to better predict responders to immunotherapy and to provide ideas for the clinical application of immunotherapy.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of using combined lumbar pelvis fixation device in the treatment of old vertical unstable fracture dislocation of posterior pelvic ring.Methods:Data of 7 patients with old vertical unstable fracture dislocation of posterior pelvic ring admitted and followed up from January 2017 to April 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 4 males and 3 females with an average age of 42.4 years old (range, 22-73 years old). There were 3 cases of traffic injury, 3 cases of falling injury and 1 case of tumble injury. According to Tile classification for pelvic fractures, there were 5 cases of type C1, 1 case of type C2 and 1 case of type C3. The average time from fracture to surgery was 5.4 weeks (range, 3-10 weeks). Among the 7 patients, 4 patients' posterior ring fractures were fixed by combined lumbar pelvic triangle fixation, and 3 patients' posterior ring fracture were fixed by combined lumbar pelvic fixation. 4 patients' anterior ring injury were not treated, 2 patients' anterior ring injury were treated by closed cannulated screw and internal fixation, and 1 patient's anterior ring injury was fixed by INFIX and cannulated screw. Every patient's operating time, intraoperative blood loss, length of incision and times of X-ray fluoroscopy were recorded. Pelvic X-ray and CT scan were taken postoperatively to observe the condition of reduction and screw position. Postoperative fracture reduction quality was assessed by Matta radiological criteria and Majeed criteria was used at the final follow-ups to evaluate the degree of functional recovery after pelvic fracture.Results:The average operating time of 7 patients was 143 min (range, 96-205 min); the intraoperative average blood loss was 579 ml (range, 300-1 650 ml); the average length of incisions was 12.9 cm (range, 9-15 cm) and the average time of X-ray fluoroscopy was 27 times (range, 15-52 times). Postoperative X-ray and CT scan showed that the displacements of the posterior rings were reset well and all the hollow screws were located accurately and firmly. Postoperative radiation quality was evaluated according to Matta radiological criteria, and there were 4 cases of excellent, 2 cases of good and 1 case of fair, with an excellent and good rate of 85.7% (6/7). Seven patients had good fracture union. The average followed up time for all 7 patients was 12 months (range, 6-16 months). At the last follow-up, imaging examination showed good reduction of the sacroiliac joint, and the reduction of anterior and posterior rings were not lost. The healing time was 14.2 weeks (range, 12-20 weeks). Majeed score: postoperative 4.90±6.64 points (range, 48-58 points), postoperative 3 months 71.40±7.32 points (range, 67-75 points), postoperative 6 months 84.90±8.14 points (range, 68-96 points), the difference was statistically significant ( F=0.614, P=0.004). Majeed score 6 months after operation showed that 5 cases were excellent, 1 case was good and 1 case was fair, and the excellent and good rate was 85.7% (6/7). Conclusion:Using combined lumbar pelvis fixation device in the treatment of old vertical unstable fracture dislocation of posterior pelvic ring has good reduction quality, high fixed strength and good postoperative effect.

Viral-encoded microRNAs (miRNAs) have vital roles in the regulation of virus replications and host immune responses. The results of previous studies have indicated that miRNA clusters are involved in the replication and virulence of the pseudorabies virus (PRV), which may potentially lead to immune escape or facilitation of PRV replication. This study's previous research revealed that prv-miR-LLT11a was differentially expressed during PRV infection. The present study's results have demonstrated that prv-miR-LLT11a could significantly inhibit PRV replication. It was further determined that SLA-1 was the target gene of prv-miR-LLT11a, and simultaneously, that overexpression of prv-miR-LLT11a could downregulate the mRNA and protein levels of SLA-1 in a dose-independent manner. Furthermore, the present study also observed that prv-miR-LLT11a can downregulate TAP1 expression. Our findings provide a better understanding of the molecular mechanism involved in the effects of prv-miR-LLT11a on SLA-1 and TAP1 as well as its involvement in immune system evasion of PRV.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) inhibits the host typeⅠinterferon and cellular antiviral response, but its inhibition mechanism is unclear, and the roles of PEDV nonstructural proteins in regulating typeⅠinterferon responses have been seldom studied. To study the effect of nsp1 on typeⅠinterferon response, nsp1 gene was cloned into a eukaryotic expression vector pCAGGS. The expression of nsp1 in transfected cells was determined by Western blot and indirect immunofluorescence assay. The effects of nsp1 on the induction of typeⅠinterferon were evaluated by dual luciferase reporter gene assay, ELISA and VSV bioassay. Western blot and indirect immunofluorescence assay showed that nsp1 was highly expressed in transfected cells and PEDV-infected cells. Dual luciferase reporter gene assay results indicated that nsp1 strongly inhibited the IFN-β promoter activity, and the inhibitory effect was nsp1 dose-dependent. ELISA results showed that nsp1 significantly inhibited the expression of IFN-β in protein level. And VSV replication-inhibition bioassay revealed that nsp1 significantly inhibited typeⅠIFN antiviral activities induced by poly(I:C). Our results implied that nsp1 was a highly conserved protein of PEDV and exhibited antagonistic function on interferon promoter activity. The results have laid a foundation for further understanding the immune evasion mechanism of PEDV and for developing new effective vaccine against PEDV.

The influenza virus has evolved numerous mechanisms to overcome host defenses for its benefit. It can also manipulate the immune system to stop it monitoring and clearing the virus. Small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO)ylation is emerging as a key post-translational modification that plays an important part in virus replication. This brief review focuses on recent findings on the roles of SUMOylation during infection by the influenza virus. As such, it will aid understanding of the mechanism of action of infection by the influenza virus, and help to provide new strategies for anti-viral treatment.
