This study was aimed at investigating the effects of demethylase fat mass and obesity-associated protein(FTO)and methyltransferase methyltransferase like protein 3(METTL3),key molecules in N6-methyladenosine(m6A)modification,on the replication and proliferation of Japanese encephalitis virus(JEV).Recombinant lentiviruses were generated by packaging the FTO and green fluorescent protein into lentiviral vectors.Neuro2a cells,a mouse neuroblastoma cell line,were infected with the lentivirus,and stable FTO-expressing cell lines were obtained through puromycin selection.Successful overexpression of FTO was confirmed through fluorescence microscopy,real-time quantitative PCR,and western blot analysis.When Neuro2a cells overexpressing FTO were infected with JEV,the overexpression of FTO decreased JEV replication in the cells,and increased the expression of interferon(IFN)and related molecules.Additionally,treatment of JEV-infected Neuro2a cells with the METTL3-specific inhibitor STM2457 resulted in a dose-dependent decrease in JEV replication and viral protein expression.These findings suggested that lowering m6A methylation levels inhibits JEV replication,thus shedding light on the regulatory role of methylation modification in JEV replication.

To investigate the application value of disposable subscope-assisted intestinal metal stent placement in the treatment for acute malignant colorectal obstruction, a retrospective analysis was conducted on the patients who underwent intestinal metal stent placement assisted by disposable subscope for acute malignant colorectal obstruction at the Digestive Endoscopy Center, Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University from June 2023 to July 2024. The technical success rate, clinical success rate, operation time, postoperative complications and first-stage surgical resection anastomosis rate of intestinal metal stent placement assisted by subscope were analyzed. Among the 16 included patients, there were 10 males and 6 females, with the age of 72.19±9.40 years. Obstruction occurred at the descending colon in 8 cases (50.00%), at the sigmoid colon in 6 cases (37.50%), at the rectosigmoid junction in 1 case (6.25%), and at the splenic flexure of the transverse colon in 1 case (6.25%). All 16 patients successfully underwent stent placement, with a technical success rate of 100.00% (16/16). Obstruction symptoms did not relieve in one patient (6.25%) after stent placement, resulting in a clinical success rate of 93.75% (15/16). The endoscopic operation time for the 16 patients was 37.8±13.9 minutes. No bleeding, perforation, stent displacement, or detachment occurred after the operation. Fourteen patients underwent subsequent surgical treatment, the first-stage surgical resection anastomosis rate was 71.43% (10/14). This preliminary study suggests that the disposable subscope-assisted intestinal metal stent placement for the treatment of acute malignant colorectal obstruction is safe and effective, with no radiation exposure.
