Mosquito-borne viruses,a class of pathogens primarily transmitted by mosquitoes,present severe glo-bal epidemics and pose serious threats to human health.These viruses rely on specific mosquito species for transmi-ssion,and their clinical manifestations vary from mild symptoms to severe complications.Most viruses lack effective treatment agents and vaccines.This review systematically describes the mechanisms of the mosquito-borne virus in-fection transmission,encompassing two key stages:host infection and mosquito infection.During the host infection stage,saliva components of mosquito promote viral invasion and systemic spread within the host by disrupting host hemostasis process,directly interacting with the virus,altering host cell function,and regulating local immune re-sponse,ultimately targeting specific organs and causing disease.During the mosquito infection stage,the targeting of mosquito is regulated by metabolites from host's skin microbiome.Host blood components and mosquito's gut microbiome exert bidirectional regulation in the infection in mosquito's midgut.The viruses break through the mid-gut barrier to enter the hemolymph and further infect the salivary glands.These mechanisms reveal the viruses' adaptive strategies within the host-mosquito ecosystem and emphasize the importance of multifactorial regulation.Future research should focus on molecular interventions,microbial applications,and integrated prevention and con-trol strategies to reduce the risk of mosquito-borne viral transmission.

Objective:To investigate the expressions of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), aquaporin (AQP) and osteopontin (OPN) in renal injury induced by fluorosis in rats.Methods:According to body weight (80 - 100 g), forty-eight SD rats were divided into control group (normal saline), low fluoride group (10 mg/kg) and high fluoride group (20 mg/kg) by random number table, 16 rats in each group (half males and half females). The rats were exposed to fluoride by intraperitoneal injection of sodium fluoride. After the rats were treated with fluoride for 12 weeks, the rats were killed by femoral artery bloodletting and the renal tissue was taken. The contents of TGF-β1, AQP and OPN in serum of rats with fluorosis were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The expressions of TGF-β1, AQP and OPN in renal tissue of rats with fluorosis were analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and immunocytochemistry.Results:The serum levels of TGF-β1, AQP and OPN in high fluoride group [(26.42 ± 6.09), (378.60 ± 36.84) μg/L, (603.45 ± 64.32) pg/ml] were higher than those in control group [(2.41 ± 0.42), (157.41 ± 15.26) μg/L, (182.45 ± 30.63) pg/ml] and low fluoride group [(13.15 ± 3.26), (245.65 ± 23.21) μg/L, (359.47 ± 55.26) pg/ml, P < 0.05]. The levels of TGF-β1, AQP and OPN in low fluoride group were higher than those in control group ( P < 0.05). The expressions of TGF-β1, AQP and OPN mRNA in high fluoride group were higher than those in control group and low fluoride group ( P < 0.05), and the expressions of TGF-β1, AQP and OPN mRNA in low fluoride group were higher than those in control group ( P < 0.05). The positive expression scores of TGF-β1, AQP and OPN in high fluoride group were higher than those in control group and low fluoride group ( P < 0.05), and the positive expression scores of TGF-β1, AQP and OPN in low fluoride group were higher than those in control group ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:TGF-β1, AQP and OPN are highly expressed in the renal tissue of rats with fluorosis, which can be used as indicators to judge the damage of renal aggregation system caused by fluorosis.

Objective To investigate the correlation and predictive value between contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) and microvascular invasion (MVI) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods Total of 233 (162 male,71 female) patients treated from July 2013 to September 2016 at the Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital of Fujian Medical University were enrolled in this research.The mean age ± SD was 55.1 ± 11.6 years.MVI was positive in 85 patients and negative in 148 patients.All patients underwent CEUS examination within one week before operation.A quantitative analysis software was used to analyze the size,shape and volume of the tumors.The difference in the volume of the tumors before and after CEUS,the peak intensity of the tumors and the washout time of the tumors were recorded.This study aimed to analyze the influencing factors of MVI in HCC patients,and the predictive value of MVI.Results Compared with the MVI negative group,the MVI positive group had larger tumor diameters,higher proportions of middle/low differentiation,irregular shapes and rapid clearance,shorter clearance time and a larger difference in tumor volume before and after angiography (P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis after excluding collinearity showed that a large diameter of tumors,large difference in tumor volume before and after CEUS,and faster washout were influencing factors of MVI in HCC patients.The ROC curve was used to analyze the predictive value of tumor volume difference on MVI before and after angiography.The cut-off value was 2.195.The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 0.682,0.696,67.9％ and 72.8％,respectively.Conclusion Large diameter of tumors,large difference in volume of tumors before and after CEUS,and fast washout time were influencing factors of MVI in HCC patients.A quantitative analysis of CEUS could predict the presence of MVI.

Objective To investigate the effects of ch1D1, an anti-CD86 chimeric antibody, on autoreactive B lymphocytes isolated from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus ( SLE) . Methods Flow cytometry analysis was performed to measure the expression of CD86 on the surface of B cells isolated from patients with SLE and to analyze the effects of ch1D1 on the activation of CD4+T cells. The method of magnetic bead sorting was used to separate B cells, NK cells and CD4+T cells from PBMC collected from healthy subjects and patients with SLE for subsequent experiments. Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cyto-toxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) that were mediated by ch1D1 were meas-ured with LDH release assay. Effects of ch1D1 on the secretion of auto-antibodies and the proliferation of CD 4+ T were detected by ELISA and 3 H -thymidine ( 3 H-TdR) incorporation assay, respectively. Results The levels of CD80 (68. 08±14. 28 vs 46. 10±12. 14, n=24, P<0. 000 1) and CD86 (44. 72±14. 90 vs 13. 99±10. 74, n=24, P<0. 000 1) expressed on the surface of B cells isolated from patients with SLE were significantly higher than those from the healthy subjects, suggesting the abnormal activation of B cells. Com-pared with the negative control group and the murine monoclonal antibody 1D1, ch1D1 was more effective in mediating the ADCC and CDC responses (P=0. 017 2, P=0. 038 8). Activated T cells significantly en-hanced the secretion of auto-antibodies by B cells isolated from patients with SLE. Compared with the nega-tive control group, the enhanced secretion of auto-antibodies was significantly inhibited by treatment with ch1D1 (P=0. 001 9). Moreover, ch1D1 significantly inhibited the proliferation and activation of CD4+T cells induced in patients with SLE (P=0. 002 4, P=0. 049 5). Conclusion ch1D1, the anti-CD86 chim-eric antibody, could effectively mediate the ADCC and CDC responses against autoreactive B cells isolated from patients with SLE, inhibit the secretion of auto-antibodies and suppress the proliferation and activation of auto-reactive CD4+T cells. It might be a potential immunotherapy agent for the treatment of SLE.

Objective To investigate the current prevalence of depressive disorder and the associated factors in pa?tients with essential hypertensive from cardiovascular divisions of tertiary general hospitals. Methods A Chinese version of Structured Clinical Interview for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (Fourth Edition) Axis I Disor?ders was conducted by five mental health professionals on 876 essential hypertensive outpatients at cardiovascular divi?sions of tertiary general hospital. Data on the socio-demographic and clinical characteristics of these hypertensive pa?tients were also collected. Results The current prevalence of depressive disorders among essential hypertensive outpa?tients of tertiary hospitals was 16.6%(145/876). Risk factors for depressive disorders in hypertensive patients included fe?male gender (OR=2.817, 95%CI:1.161~6.885), being 65-year-old and older (OR=1.747, 95%CI:1.118~2.688), non-marital status (OR=2.023, 95%CI:1.203~3.398), gradeⅢhypertension (OR=1.776, 95%CI:1.226~2.333) and car?diovascular diseases (OR=2.018, 95%CI:1.427~2.587). Conclusion Essential hypertensive outpatients, who receive med?ical services at cardiovascular divisions of tertiary general hospital, have high prevalence of depressive disorders. Clini?cians should pay more attention to the mental health of outpatients with essential hypertension.
