Circular RNA(circRNA)represents a unique class of closed-loop structured non-coding RNAs involved in various biological processes such as cell proliferation,differentiation,and apopto-sis.They play a significant role in the development of numerous diseases,and also serve as poten-tial biomarkers and therapeutic targets.To explore the impact of circRNA on viral replication,this study performed an omics measurement and analysis of circRNA differential expression in MC38 cells infected with HY12 enterovirus.It was found that,following HY12 virus infection,the ex-pressionlevels of 570 circRNAs were upregulated,while 381 circRNAs were downregulated.A-mong the upregulated circRNAs,the significantly upregulated circRNA mmu_circ_0001083 was selected for further investigation into its association with HY12 infection and its impact on viral replication.The results indicated that after HY12 virus infection,the expression of host circRNA mmu_circ_0001083 significantly increased,and its expression level was dependent on the virus dos-age and time.Compared to normal MC38 cells infected with the HY12 virus,cells with knocked down expression of circRNA mmu_circ_0001083 showed reduced expression of the 2C protein and significantly lower viral titers.Conversely,after HY12 virus infection in MC38 cells with overexpressed circRNA mmu_circ_0001083,there was an increase in the expression of the 2C pro-tein and a significant rise in viral titers.These results suggest that the upregulation of host cir-cRNA mmu_circ_0001083 is significantly positively correlated with the replication of HY12 virus,meaning mmu_circ_0001083 plays a positive regulatory role in the replication of HY12.This find-ing lays a foundation for future in-depth studies on the regulatory mechanisms of circRNA on viral replication.

Objective:To explore the functional changes of brain network node information integration and separation in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and its correlation with clinical symptoms.Methods:Fifty-six patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD group) and fifty-six healthy controls (control group) matched in gender, age and years of education were enrolled. All participants accepted resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging scans of the whole brain. Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale(Y-BOCS) was used to assess patients′ clinical symptoms. Based on graph theory and independent-sample t-test, the differences in functional network topological properties of nodes between the two groups were analyzed. Partial correlation analysis was used to discuss the relationship between the values of these properties and clinical symptoms. Results:Compared with the control group, the OCD group showed decreased global efficiency and increased shortest path length of the left superior temporal gyrus rostral area and right posterior central gyrus trunk region(both P<0.001, FDR corrected); decreased local efficiency( P=0.002, uncorrected) and clustering coefficient( P<0.001, FDR corrected) of the left inferior frontal gyrus dorsal region. Further analysis showed that the score of the global efficiency of the left superior temporal gyrus rostral area was positively correlated with the score of obsessive thoughts sub-scale ( r=0.390, P=0.005). The score of the shortest path length of the left superior temporal gyrus rostral area was negatively correlated with the obsessive thoughts sub-scale ( r=-0.359, P=0.010) in the OCD group. Conclusion:OCD patients have abnormal information integration and separation functions in the frontoparietal network(inferior frontal gyrus, posterior central gyrus) and abnormal information integration functions in the superior temporal gyrus rostral area. Higher global efficiency and shorter the shortest path length of the superior temporal gyrus rostral area suggest more obsessive thoughts in OCD patients.

【Objective】 To investigate the effect of leukocyte-depleted suspended red blood cells (lds-RBCs) storaged for different time on blood transfusion effect of patients with hematologic diseases and malignant tumors, as well as to evaluate the storage quality of lds-RBCs in blood stations. 【Methods】 Seven hospitals (4 tertiary-A hospitals and 3 secondary-A hospitals), applying for blood from our blood center, were selected. Blood transfusion cases (medical record) and related data (indicators) of patients with blood diseases and malignant tumors in those hospitals from December 2018 to May 2019 were collected, including disease diagnosis (type) before transfusion, demographic characteristics, date of solo transfusion of lds-RBCs, units of lds-RBCs [(1~2)U/bag, 1 U=200 mL whole blood], different storage duration (1~5 weeks) (bar code), and hemoglobin (Hb) 48 h before and after transfusion. The efficacy of lds-RBCs (storaged for different time) transfusion in patients with hematologic diseases and malignant tumors was evaluated by statistical analysis. 【Results】 A total of 3 557 patients with hematologic diseases and malignant tumors were enrolled in this study. No significant changes were noticed in transfusion efficacy by blood transfusion unit, gender and previous transfusion history (P > 0.05). The effective rate of lds-RBCs in patients with blood diseases and malignant tumors, stratified by storage duration, i. e. storaged for >1~2 weeks, >2~3 weeks, >3~4 weeks and more than >4~5 weeks, was 78.77% vs 77.68% vs 75.06% vs 70.37%, and 79.32% vs 76.73% vs 72.79% vs 67.65%, respectively(P<0.05), with lds-RBCs of 4-5 storage weeks presenting the lowest transfusion efficacy in both groups of patients. 【Conclusion】 The storage time of most lds-RBCs supplied by our center is moren than 3 weeks, and the transfusion effect of lds-RBCs stored for 5 weeks needs further observation. In order to ensure and improve the efficacy of blood transfusion, evidence-based medicine and information management are needed to help the clinical gasp the advantageous time of blood products and shorten the storage-to-transfusion time of red blood cells.
