Objective:
: Baculovirus inhibitory of apoptosis repeat-containing 5 (BIRC5) is critically implicated in various types of tumors. However, the specific mechanisms by which it operates in glioma are yet to be fully understood.
Methods:
: The data sourced from The Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression Omnibus were merged and analyzed using the R software to investigate the relationship between BIRC5 expression and prognosis and diagnosis outcomes. This exploration was conducted utilizing various biological information repositories. The correlation between BIRC5 and immunity was obtained based on TIMER and TISIDB databases.
Results:
: Gliomas displayed a markedly elevated level of BIRC5 expression compared to adjacent tissues. Patients with glioma who exhibit elevated levels of BIRC5 experience poorer prognoses and shorter survival times. Subgroup classification further revealed that heightened expression of BIRC5 led to diminished overall survival. Analysis of logistic regression and COX indicated that expression of BIRC5 serves as a risk factor in glioma development. Functional enrichment pathways showed that the 72 hub genes related to BIRC5 were mainly closely related to nuclear division, spindle, tubulin binding, and cell cycle in glioma patients. BBIRC5 methylation suggested that BIRC5 might influence the immune response regulation and the tumor microenvironment within gliomas. BIRC5 is associated with many chemicals. Additionally, studies conducted using cell experiments and pathological sections have consistently shown that BIRC5 expression is higher in tumor cells compared to normal cells and tissues.
Conclusion
: BIRC5 holds promise as a valuable tool in the diagnosis, prognosis, and management of gliomas.

Objective To investigate the correlation between abdominal obesity and autoimmune thyroid disease in the view point of helper T cells and cytokines.Methods Clinical and laboratory data were collected from 108 pa-tients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis(HT)plus abdominal obesity and 122 patients of Hashimoto's thyroiditis without abdominal obesity who visited the People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and also from the control population.Abdominal circumference was measured,and patients in the HT patients were grouped according to whether they were abdominally obese or not.The thyroglobulin antibody(TgAb)and thyroid peroxidase antibody(TPOAb)were detected,and the ratio of helper T cells and related cytokines were detected by flow cytometry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results The abdominal circumference of the TgAb-positive group was higher than that of the TgAb-negative group(P<0.05).Correlation analysis suggested that abdominal circumference was significantly and positively correlated with TgAb and IL-4 but negatively correlated with Th1.After correcting for gender and age,and abdominal obesity and IL-4 were risk factors for TgAb antibody positivity OR=3.080(95%CI:1.022-9.284)and OR=1.296(95%CI:1.022-9.284),both with P<0.05.Conclusions Abdominal obesity may be an influential factor in TgAb antibody positivity,with larger abdominal circumference having higher TgAb antibody titers,lower Th1 levels,and higher IL-4 levels.Visceral adiposity may exacerbate autoimmune dam-age of thyroid tissue by disruption of helper T cell pathway.

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.

The NMGCF-19 strain is an E.coli strain isolated and identified in our laboratory from lambs manifesting severe diarrhea and meningitis.Previous analysis of the genome sequence of NMGCF-19 strain showed that the outer membrane protein A(ompA)gene was a potential viru-lent gene.In order to determine whether the ompA gene is associated with the pathogenicity of NMGCF-19 strain and the underlying mechanism,the NMGCF-19 strain with ompA knockout(NMGCF-19△ompA)was generated in this study using CRISPR/Cas9 technology and used to de-termine the role of ompA gene in mediating the encephalitis by NMGCF-19 infection and the un-derlying mechanism using the mouse model system.The results showed that the neuronal cell nec-rosis in the hippocampus in mice infected by NMGCF-19△ompA was significantly reduced and was not focal compared with that of mice infected with the wild-type NMGCF-19 strain.The number of bacteria in brain of mice infected by NMGCF-19 △ompA was significantly reduced in comparison to that of mice infected by NMGCF-19.Simultaneously,the mRNA and protein expression levels of the tight junction proteins ZO-1 and Occludin were both increased in mice infected by NMGCF-19 △ompA strain compared with the mice infected by NMGCF-19 strain.These results suggest that the ompA gene is a virulent gene and plays an important role in the invasion of the blood-brain barrier by NMGCF-19 strain in mice.

A recombinant enzyme-mediated nucleic acid amplification(RAA)technology combined with colloidal gold test strips was developed for the rapid detection of bovine enterovirus(BEV).Using the highly conserved BEV 5'UTR as the target sequence,the primers were designed and screened.Downstream primer labeled with biotin at the 5'end and the probe labeled with 6-FAM at the 5'end were used to establish the RT-RAA method.The test strips were assembled by using mouse-derived anti-6-FAM monoclonal antibody as the gold standard antibody,with a streptavidin encapsulated in the detection line and sheep anti-mouse IgG encapsulated in the quality control line.A RT-RAA-LFD method was established by combing RAA technique with the prepared later-al flow device test strips for the detection of bovine enterovirus nucleic acids.The specificity,sensi-tivity,repeatability,and clinical application of the method are also evaluated.The results showed that the optimal primer concentration of this method was 5 μmol/L,and the amplification of BEV nucleic acids was accomplished by reacting at 35 ℃ for 8 min with the lowest detection limit of 101 copies/μL.No cross-reactivity with bovine viral diarrhea virus,bovine parvovirus,and foot-and-mouth disease virus was observed.The efficacy for the prepared test strips was at least for 90 d kept at 4 ℃.Detection of 74 clinical samples yielded a similar result compared with RT-PCR method.The above results demonstrated that the BEV RT-RAA-LFD method established in this study has high sensitivity,specificity,and more convenient to use,which is suitable for clinical de-tection on-site and provides a new technical tool for the diagnosis and epidemiological investigation of BEV infection.

The multi-campus mode is an important way to give full play to the advantages of public hospitals and promote the expansion of high-quality medical resources and balanced regional layout. The authors summarized the practical experience of the Second Affiliated Hospital Zhejiang University School of Medicine in promoting multi-campus cultural integration, including vertical dimensional initiatives including raising cultural construction to a strategic level, improving the working mechanism of cultural construction, and building a distinctive cultural identity system; horizontal dimensional initiatives including creating equal status and intergroup cooperation conducive to cultural integration, building a variety of forms of the main cultural communication platform, and building a unified and diverse cross-campus communication bridge. Through cultural integration, the internal cohesion of the hospital was enhanced and the influence of the hospital brand was improved. The authors suggested that cultural integration should always be based on the principle of " seeking common ground while preserving minor differences" , focusing on the construction of systems and standards, and focusing on the construction of communication platforms.
