Objective: To define the mechanism by which swine TRIM25 restricts vesicular stomatitis virus replication. Methods: Porcine 3D4/21 cells with TRIM25 overexpression or knockdown were infected with vesicular stomatitis virus. Viral replication was quantified by immunoblotting, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, and 50% tissue culture infectious dose assays. Type I interferon signaling was assessed by transcript quantification, interferon-beta and interferon-stimulated response element reporter assays, and co-immunoprecipitation.Viral RNA binding was tested by RNA immunoprecipitation. Results: TRIM25 overexpression reduced viral RNA and infectious titers, whereas TRIM25 knockdown increased replication (p < 0.01). TRIM25 increased interferon-beta and interferon-stimulated gene expression and enhanced interferon-beta and interferonstimulated response element promoter activity (p < 0.01). Mechanistically, TRIM25 promoted Lys63-linked ubiquitination of RIG-I and increased phosphorylation of TANK-binding kinase 1 and interferon regulatory factor 3. TRIM25 also bound vesicular stomatitis virus genomic RNA, and binding required the C-terminal region. Conclusions and Relevance: Porcine TRIM25 restricts vesicular stomatitis virus replication by amplifying type I interferon signaling and directly binding viral RNA.

OBJECTIVE To explore the epidemiological characteristics of common allergens among children with al-lergic rhinitis(AR)in a children's specialized hospital of Beijing.METHODS A total of 2120 children who met the diagnostic criteria of AR and were treated in otolaryngology department of Beijing Jingdu Children's Hospital from 2021 to 2023 were recruited as the research subjects.The specific immunoglobulin E(sIgE)of allergens was de-tected by western blot quantitative assay.The positive rates of the allergens were statistically analyzed according to the age,sex and years.The epidemiological characteristics and changing trends were observed.RESULTS The pos-itive rate of allergens was 47.78％among the 2120 children,in whom multiple allergies polysensitization were pre-dominant;the positive rate of allergens and polysensitization rate were the highest among the population aged be-tween 1 and 7 years old.The inhalational allergens were dominant,and the positive rate of the Candida group was highest.The positive rates of inhalant allergens and ingested allergens reached the peak at the age of 1-7 and then declined with age;milk and egg white were the two types of predominant ingested allergens in childhood.Among the 2120 children,there were significant differences in the positive rates of allergens between the male and the fe-male,and the positive rates of the male were higher than those of the female(P＜0.001).The positive rates of al-lergens generally showed upward trends during the 3 years,the positive rates of the inhalant allergens such as mugwort,cat hair and dog dandruff ascended by a large margin,and the positive rates of the ingested allergens such as milk,egg white and egg yolk showed remarkable rising trends.CONCLUSIONS The causes of AR are complicated.There are a variety of factors affecting the allergen test.The epidemiological characteristics of the al-lergens among the AR children are observed from multiple perspectives,which may provide references for preven-tion and treatment of the children with AR.

Objective:To explore the evaluation value of blood routine derived indicators[derived neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(dNLR),red blood cell distribution width to platelet ratio(RPR)]combine with serum C-reactive protein(CRP)and procalcitonin(PCT)detection for the clinical outcomes of children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP).Methods:149 children with MPP who were admitted to our hospital from April 2022 to August 2024 were included,they were divided into good prognosis and poor prognosis groups based on their clinical outcomes 28 d after admission.The blood routine derived indicators,serum CRP,and PCT levels between the good prognosis group and the poor prognosis group were compared.The influencing factors of clinical outcomes in children with MPP were analyzed by Multiple logistic regression analysis,the value of blood routine derived indicators,serum CRP,and PCT testing alone and in combination to evaluate the clinical outcomes of children with MPP were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves.Results:Among 149 children with MPP,113 had good prognosis and 36 had poor prognosis 28 d after admission,with a poor prognosis incidence rate of 24.16％(36/149).dNLR,RPR,CRP,and PCT levels in the poor prognosis group were higher than those in the good prognosis group(P＜0.05).Univariate analysis showed that,the clinical outcome of children with MPP was related to pleural thickening,pleural effusion,severity disease and peak body temperature(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed:Pleural thickening,pleural effusion,severity disease was severe,elevated dNLR,elevated RPR,elevated CRP and elevated PCT were risk factors for poor prognosis in children with MPP(P＜0.05).The area under the Curve(AUC)of dNLR,RPR,CRP and PCT combined to predict the prognosis of children with MPP was higher than that evaluated by the four indicators alone.Conclusion:Pleural thickening,pleural effusion,severe disease severity,elevated dNLR,elevated RPR,elevated CRP and elevated PCT are risk factors for poor prognosis in children with MPP.Moreover,the combined evaluate value of dNLR,RPR,CRP,and PCT is relatively high.

Objective To investigate the effects of sufentanil on proliferation,invasion,migration,and apoptosis of thyroid cancer cells,and analyze whether its mechanism is related to the AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK)-silent information regulator 1(SIRT1)-peroxisome proliferat or activator receptor gamma coactivator 1α(PGC-1α)signaling pathway.Methods The human thyroid cancer cell line(TPC-1)was separated into a control group,L,M,H-sufentanil groups,and H-sufentanil+AICAR group.TPC-1 cell activity,apoptosis,invasion,migration,and expression of proteins were detected using CCK-8 assay,flow cytometry,Transwell assay,scratch assay,and Western blot,respectively.Results Compared with the control group,the absorbance value,invasion number,scratch healing rate,cleaved-Caspase-3,programmed cell death 1 ligand 1,B lymphoblastoma-2,p-AMPK/AMPK,SIRT1,and PGC-1αprotein levels in L,M,and H-sufentanil groups were reduced;the apoptosis rate and Bax protein level were increased(P＜0.05).AICAR treatment reversed the effect of H-sufentanil on the above indicators(P＜0.05).Conclusion Sufentanil may inhibit the AMPK-SIRT1-PGC-1α signaling pathway,thereby inhibiting the proliferation and invasion migration of thyroid cancer cells,and promoting cell apoptosis.

The aim of this study was to understand the internal genetic diversity and population history dynamics of ticks in Inner Mongolia,to provide data for designing effective vector control programs and revealing ticks'transmission mechanisms.From 2022 to 2023,the manual collection method was used to collect samples in Inner Mongolia.The 16S rDNA and COI gene sequences of ticks were used to identify Hyalomma marginatum,Haemaphysalis concinna,and Argas persicus,and analyze the sequence characteristics and genetic diversity within the populations.Base composition analysis indicated that the average A+T content of the 16S rDNA gene and CO I gene in the three ticks was significantly higher than that of C+G.Moreover,22 haplotypes of the COI gene and 12 haplotypes of the 16S rDNA sequence were identified in Hyalomma marginatum.Eleven haplotypes were identified according to the COI gene,and nine haplotypes were identified according to the16S rDNA sequence of Haemaphysalis concinna.Two haplotypes were identified on the basis of the COI gene,and six haplotypes were identified on the basis of the 16S rDNA sequence of Ar gas persicus.The minimum 16S rDNA haplotype diversity was 0.264 for Ar gas persicus and 0.579 for the other two species.The nucleotide diversity of the three tick species was less than 0.05.Tajima's val-ue and Fu's Fs value of the neutrality test were negative.Base saturation substitution analysis indicated that neither of the two genes in the three tick species reached saturation.The phylogenetic tree revealed that Hyalomma marginatum,Haema physalis concinna,and Ar gas persicus in Inner Mongolia independently aggregated into branches.In conclusion,the base content of Hyalomma marginatum,Haemaphysalis concinna,and Argas persicus genes in Inner Mongolia was consist-ent with the characteristics of insect mitochondrial DNA content.Furthermore,the three tick populations showed rapid evolu-tionary population expansion,and the phylogeny of three tick species showed independent aggregation into clades,with no pop-ulation isolation.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the threonine and tyrosine kinase(TTK)gene and eyelid basal cell carcinoma(BCC).Methods Bioinformatics methods were used to screen the core gene(namely,TTK)associated with the occurrence and development of BCC from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database.Surgically removed eyelid BCC tissue specimens(BCC cells were divided into BBC Grade Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ groups by tumor grade)and be-nign tumor tissue specimens(Control group)were collected from Ziyang Central Hospital for subsequent experiments.Cel-lular immunofluorescence assay(CIA)was used to detect the expression of the TTK gene in benign and malignant eyelid tumor cells.After knocking down TTK in BCC cells through transfection with lentiviruses(the cells transfected with LV-TTK-shRNA were taken as the TTK-shRNA group,and those transfected with LV-BBC-shRNA were taken as the BBC nega-tive control group),CIA was used to detect the expression of key proteins Bcl-2 and Bax in the apoptotic signaling pathway of each group of cells.Results The bioinformatics analysis showed that the TTK gene was the core gene associated with the occurrence and development of eyelid BCC.CIA detection results revealed that the fluorescence signal intensities in the tumor cytoplasm of Control,BCC Grade Ⅰ,Ⅱ,and Ⅲ groups were 1.03±0.07,1.28±0.11,1.58±0.13 and 1.92±0.17,respectively.The fluorescence signal intensity gradually increased,and the difference in fluorescence signal intensity among the four groups was statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Compared with that in the Control group(1.02±0.05),the cell fluorescence intensity was increased in the BCC negative control group(1.74±0.12)and decreased in the TTK-shRNA group(1.31±0.09)(P＜0.05).The difference in cell fluorescence intensity was significant among the Control,BCC nega-tive control and TTK-shRNA groups(all P＜0.05).The fluorescence intensity of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 was 1.04±0.12 in the Control group,2.12±0.23 in the BCC negative control group,and 1.43±0.15 in the TTK-shRNA group.The fluorescence intensity of the pro-apoptotic protein Bax was 1.02±0.08 in the Control group,0.64±0.11 in the BCC negative control group,and 1.47±0.16 in the TTK-shRNA group.After TTK knockdown,the expression level of BcL-2 in BCC cells decreased,and that of Bax increased.The fluorescence intensities of BcL-2 and Bax were significantly different among the Control,BCC negative control and TTK-shRNA groups(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The TTK gene plays a role in the regulation of eyelid BCC cell proliferation,and this effect is closely related to the PI3K-AKT-Bcl-2/Bax signaling path-way.

Abnormal lipid metabolism and renal ectopic lipid accumulation have been associated with the occurrence and development of kidney diseases,particularly in diabetic nephropathy.However,the drugs commonly used in clinic to treat hypercholesterolemia,such as statins,ezetimibe and proprotein convertase subtilisin/Kexin type 9(PCSK9)inhibitors,can effectively reduce the blood lipid level,but fail to delay the progress of kidney disease.In recent years,an increasing number of research studies have focused on the impact of free fat acids(FFA)metabolism on kidney function.The profiles and metabolism of fatty acids are altered in chronic kidney disease(CKD),and deregulated fatty acid metabolism contributes to further kidney damage.Furthermore,the role of FFA transporter in the progression of kidney diseases is gradually recognized.Therefore,this review summarizes the recent preclinical researches of fatty acid transporter fatty acid transport protein 2(FATP2)expressed in proximal renal tubular epithelial cells.
