Objective: To investigate the genetic basis of RhD-negative phenotype in the blood donor population of Nantong City. Methods: RHD genotyping was performed on 386 randomly selected RhD-negative donor samples (from a total of 676 RhD-negative donors identified between January 20, 2023, and June 28, 2024) using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and the inconclusive results were confirmed by nucleotide sequencing. Results: Ten RHD allele types were identified: The complete deletion variant RHD 01N.01 was predominant (64.25%, 248/386); followed by RHD 01EL.01 (19.69%, 76/386). RHD 01N.03, RHD 01N.04, RHD 01N.16 and RHD 01EL.32 were frequently observed., RHD 01EL.02, RHD 01EL.08, RHD 01EL.37 and RHD 01N.25 were rare, and two exon deletion variants remained uncharacterized. The phenotypic distribution of RhD-negative blood donors was ccee (55.44%)>Ccee(31.09%)>ccEe(5.96%)>CCee(5.44%)>CcEe(1.81%)>CcEE(0.26%), and the antigen distribution trend was e(99.74%)>c(94.56%)>C(38.60%)>E(8.03%). A correlation was observed between RHD genotypes and RhCE phenotypes. Conclusion: The Nantong blood donor population exhibits unique RHD gene polymorphisms. Integrating RhCE serological phenotyping with RHD genotyping is essential for ensuring transfusion safety.

Sheep pox is widespread worldwide and is the most severe animal pox virus infection. This study aimed to identify the key microRNAs (miRNAs) differentially expressed in the exosomes of sheep poxvirus-infected cells and their target genes and related pathways and provide a theoretical basis for an in-depth understanding of the molecular mechanisms of sheep poxvirus-infected cells. In this study, the differentially expressed miRNAs were verified by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), and the target genes of miRNAs were predicted and analyzed by bioinformatics. The qPCR results showed that the expression trends of oar-miR-21, oar-miR-10b, oar-let-7f, oar-let-7b, and oar-miR-221 were consistent with the sequencing results. The Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes results showed that differentially expressed miRNAs were mainly involved in the immune system processes of the Arf6 downstream pathway. The target genes Reactome pathways were mainly enriched in the RAC1 GTPase cycle, CDC42 GTPase cycle, RHO GTPase cycle, RHOV GTPase cycle, and post-transcriptional silencing of small RNAs. The transcription factors SP4, NKX6-1, MEF2A, SP1, EGR1, and POU2F1 that may be connected to sheep pox virus (SPPV)-infected cells were discovered by transcription factor annotation screening. In conclusion, this study screened for differentially expressed miRNAs in SPPV-infected cells and performed a series of bioinformatic analyses of their target genes to provide a theoretical basis for the molecular mechanism of sheep pox virus infections of cells. The data can be used as basic information in future studies on the defense mechanisms against poxvirus infections.

Objective:To explore the relationship between the long-term dynamic change in alanine aminotransferase(ALT) level and metabolic associated fatty liver disease(MAFLD).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 6 864 subjects who underwent four consecutive physical examinations from 2017 to 2020 in a cohort study of physical examination population in Henan Province. The relation between ALT level and the shift of MAFLD risk was analyzed using a multi-state Markov model, and the bidirectional relationship between ALT level and MAFLD was explored using a random intercept cross-lagged model.Results:Multi-state Markov model after adjusting for confounding factors showed that the risk of MAFLD in ALT Q2, Q3, Q4 group was gradually higher than that in Q1 group; Compared with health status, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and MAFLD status gradually increased the risk of ALT shifting from normal to abnormal. The random intercept cross-lagged model after adjusting for confounding factors showed that there was a significant positive bidirectional relationship between MAFLD and ALT level. The cross-lag effect of MAFLD→ALT level was 0.083(95% CI 0.078-0.087), and the cross-lag effect of ALT→MAFLD was 0.044(95% CI 0.039-0.050). And with the extension of time, the cross-lag effect gradually decreased. Conclusions:There is a significant bidirectional relationship between the long-term dynamic change of ALT level and MAFLD. The occurrence of MAFLD is more likely to increase the risk of elevated ALT level, emphasizing the need for enhanced early prevention and treatment of MAFLD.
