Achromatic Full Stokes Polarimetry Metasurface for Full-Color Polarization Imaging in the Visible Range.

Metasurfaces provide an ultrathin platform for compact, real-time polarimetry. However, their applications in polychromatic scenes are restricted by narrow operating bandwidths that causes spectral information loss. Here, we demonstrate full-color polarization imaging using an achromatic polarimeter consisting of four polarization-dependent metalenses. Leveraging an intelligent design scheme, we achieve effective arbitrary phase compensation and multiobjective matching with a limited database. This system provides broadband achromaticity across wavelengths from 450 to 650 nm, resulting in a relative bandwidth of approximately 0.364 for full Stokes imaging. Experimental reconstruction errors for wavelengths of 450, 550, and 650 nm are 7.5%, 5.9%, and 3.8%, respectively. Performance is evaluated based on both achromatic bandwidth and crosstalk, with our design achieving three times the performance of the current state-of-the-art. The full-color, full-polarization imaging capability of the device is further validated with a customized object. The proposed scheme advances polarization imaging for practical applications.

Polarization Independent Dynamic Beam Steering based on Liquid Crystal Integrated Metasurface.

Digital Micromirror Devices, extensively employed in projection displays offer rapid, polarization-independent beam steering. However, they are constrained by microelectromechanical system limitations, resulting in reduced resolution, limited beam steering angle and poor stability, which hinder further performance optimization. Liquid Crystal on Silicon technology, employing liquid crystal (LC) and silicon chip technology, with properties of high resolution, high contrast and good stability. Nevertheless, its polarization-dependent issues lead to complex system and low efficiency in device applications. This paper introduces a hybrid integration of metallic metasurface with nematic LC, facilitating a polarization-independent beam steering device capable of large-angle deflections. Employing principles of geometrical phase and plasmonic resonances, the metallic metasurface, coupled with an electronically controlled LC, allows for dynamic adjustment, achieving a maximum deflection of ± 27.1°. Additionally, the integration of an LC-infused dielectric grating for dynamic phase modulation and the metasurface for polarization conversion ensures uniform modulation effects across all polarizations within the device. We verify the device's large-angle beam deflection capability and polarization insensitivity effect in simulations and propose an optimization scheme to cope with the low efficiency of individual diffraction stages.

An Electrochemically Programmable Metasurface with Independently Controlled Metasurface Pixels at Optical Frequencies.

Metasurfaces have revolutionized optical technologies by offering powerful, compact, and versatile solutions to control light. Conducting polymers, characterized by their conjugated molecular structures, facilitate charge transport and exhibit interesting electrical, optical, and mechanical properties. Integrating conducting polymers with optical metasurfaces can unlock new opportunities and functionalities in modern optics. In this work, we demonstrate an electrochemically programmable metasurface with independently controlled metasurface pixels at optical frequencies. Electrochemical modulation of locally conjugated polyaniline on gold nanorods, which are arranged on addressable electrodes according to the Pancharatnam-Berry phase design, enables dynamic control over the metasurface pixels into programmable configurations. With the same metasurface device, we showcase diverse optical functions, including dynamic beam diffraction and varifocal lensing along and off the optical axis. The synergy between flat optics and conducting polymer science holds immense potential to enhance the performance and function versatility of metasurfaces, paving the way for innovative optical applications.

Gut microbiome, and immune cells mediated effect on depression: A two-step, two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis.

BACKGROUND: The gut microbiota (GM) plays an important role in the development of immune-related diseases, and the immune response is one of the pathomechanisms of depression (Dep); whether the effect of GM on Dep is mediated by immune cells (ImC) is unclear. OBJECTIVE: ImC may mediate the effect of GM on Dep. Our aim is to identify and quantify the role of immune characteristics as potential mediators. METHODS: Pooled statistics for GM (n = 7738) and ImC (n = 3757) were obtained from publicly available genome-wide association studies (GWAS), and for Dep (n = 47,696) from the Finnish database R10. We used a mediated Mendelian randomization (MR) study to investigate the causal relationship between GM and Dep and the mediating role of ImC between GM and Dep associations. RESULTS: The results showed that the genetically predicted GM was significantly correlated with both ImC as well as Dep. MR analysis identified five microbiomes that had significant causal effects on Dep (Methionine biosynthesis III, PWY-6737-Starch degradation V, Parasutterella excrementihominis, Parasutterella, and Lysine biosynthesis I). In addition, five of the 26 ImC trait significantly associated with GM were most closely associated with Dep (T cell %lymphocyte、CD28-CD127-CD25++CD8br AC、CD28-CD8br AC、CD27 receptor on peripheral blood plasma cells (CD27 on PB/PC) and CD11b receptor on mononuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells (CD11b on Mo MDSC)). This mediated MR illustrates the causal role of methionine biosynthesis III on Dep (IVW: OR = 1.08, 95%CI [1.04,1.14], P = 0.001). And there was no strong evidence for a causal effect of depression on methionine biosynthesis III. In the B cell group, the proportion of CD27 on PB/PC mediated was 7.88 %(95%CI [-0.04,0.03]) of the total effect. This study further suggests that Dep patients should actively seek immunologic intervention therapy. CONCLUSION: This MR study found that GM may play a causal role in Dep by mediating ImC. Our findings will help to understand the pathogenic mechanism of GM in Dep and the risk of immune mediation.

A retrospective study of Parkinson's disease in Southwest China 2021-2024: An age-based approach.

BACKGROUND: Globally, Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the common neurodegenerative diseases in the elderly with increasing morbidity and disability, and its clinical pathogenesis is not clear. OBJECTIVE: To compare the differences in disease severity and blood biomarkers levels and their correlation between patients with early-onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD) and late-onset Parkinson's disease (LOPD). METHODS: A total of 342 patients diagnosed with PD were retrospectively collected. PD patients were categorized into EOPD (24 patients) and LOPD (318 patients) according to the age of onset of the disease. The Hoehn-Yahr (HY) staging was used to assess the severity of the disease in PD patients. Subjective rating scales such as the Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) were used to assess the motor and non-motor functions of the patients. The differences of objective blood biomarkers such as triglyceride (TG) between the two groups were investigated. The correlation between them and PD was explored by logistic analysis. RESULTS: Percentage of EOPD group with HY staged as intermediate to late and Scales for Outcomes in Parkinson's Disease-Autonomic (SCOPA-AUT), Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's disease Rating Scale-III (MDS-UPDRS-III), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score and TG, non-high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (N-HDL-C), homocysteine (HCY), apolipoprotein B (Apo-B), free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels were lower than those in the LOPD group (P < 0.05); and the proportion of HY staged as early stage, Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Fatigue severity scale (FSS) scores and the levels of vitamin B12 were higher than those in the LOPD group (P < 0.05). The results of Multifactorial Logistic regression analysis showed that N-HDL-C [OR = 1.409, 95 % CI (1.063, 1.868)], Apo-B [OR = 0.797, 95 % CI (0.638, 0.997)], Vitamin B12 [OR = 0.992, 95 % CI (0.987, 0.998)] and hs-CRP [OR = 1.124, 95 % CI (1.070, 1.182)] were independent factors affecting the severity of PD, with significant differences between groups (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: N-HDL-C, Apo-B, Vitamin B12, and hs-CRP levels play an important role in the progression of PD.

Optical vectorial-mode parity Hall effect: a case study with cylindrical vector beams.

The vectorial optical field (VOF) assumes a pivotal role in light-matter interactions. Beyond its inherent polarization topology, the VOF also encompasses an intrinsic degree of freedom associated with parity (even or odd), corresponding to a pair of degenerate orthogonal modes. However, previous research has not delved into the simultaneous manipulation of both even and odd parities. In this study, we introduce and validate the previously unexplored parity Hall effect for vectorial modes using a metasurface design. Our focus lies on a cylindrical vector beam (CVB) as a representative case. Through the tailored metasurface, we effectively separate two degenerate CVBs with distinct parities in divergent directions, akin to the observed spin states split in the spin Hall effect. Additionally, we provide experimental evidence showcasing the capabilities of this effect in multi-order CVB demultiplexing and parity-demultiplexed CVB-encoded holography. This effect unveils promising opportunities for various applications, including optical communication and imaging.

Utilizing network pharmacology, molecular docking, and animal models to explore the therapeutic potential of the WenYang FuYuan recipe for cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury through AGE-RAGE and NF-κB/p38MAPK signaling pathway modulation.

BACKGROUND: Stroke is a debilitating condition with high morbidity, disability, and mortality that significantly affects the quality of life of patients. In China, the WenYang FuYuan recipe is widely used to treat ischemic stroke. However, the underlying mechanism remains unknown, so exploring the potential mechanism of action of this formula is of great practical significance for stroke treatment. OBJECTIVE: This study employed network pharmacology, molecular docking, and in vivo experiments to clarify the active ingredients, potential targets, and molecular mechanisms of the WenYang FuYuan recipe in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury, with a view to providing a solid scientific foundation for the subsequent study of this recipe. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Active ingredients of the WenYang FuYuan recipe were screened using the traditional Chinese medicine systems pharmacology database and analysis platform. Network pharmacology approaches were used to explore the potential targets and mechanisms of action of the WenYang FuYuan recipe for the treatment of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. The Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion/Reperfusion 2 h Sprague Dawley rat model was prepared, and TTC staining and modified neurological severity score were applied to examine the neurological deficits in rats. HE staining and Nissl staining were applied to examine the pathological changes in rats. Immunofluorescence labeling and Elisa assay were applied to examine the expression levels of certain proteins and associated factors, while qRT-PCR and Western blotting were applied to examine the expression levels of linked proteins and mRNAs in disease-related signaling pathways. RESULTS: We identified 62 key active ingredients in the WenYang FuYuan recipe, with 222 highly significant I/R targets, forming 138 pairs of medication components and component-targets, with the top five being Quercetin, Kaempferol, Luteolin, ß-sitosterol, and Stigmasterol. The key targets included TP53, RELA, TNF, STAT1, and MAPK14 (p38MAPK). Targets related to cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury were enriched in chemical responses, enzyme binding, endomembrane system, while enriched pathways included lipid and atherosclerosis, fluid shear stress and atherosclerosis, AGE-RAGE signaling in diabetic complications. In addition, the main five active ingredients and targets in the WenYang FuYuan recipe showed high binding affinity (e.g. Stigmasterol and MAPK14, total energy <-10.5 Kcal/mol). In animal experiments, the WenYang FuYuan recipe reduced brain tissue damage, increased the number of surviving neurons, and down-regulated S100ß and RAGE protein expression. Moreover, the relative expression levels of key targets such as TP53, RELA and p38MAPK mRNA were significantly down-regulated in the WenYang FuYuan recipe group, and serum IL-6 and TNF-a factor levels were reduced. After WenYang FuYuan recipe treatment, the AGE-RAGE signaling pathway and downstream NF-kB/p38MAPK signaling pathway-related proteins were significantly modulated. CONCLUSION: This study utilized network pharmacology, molecular docking, and animal experiments to identify the potential mechanism of the WenYang FuYuan recipe, which may be associated with the regulation of the AGE-RAGE signaling pathway and the inhibition of target proteins and mRNAs in the downstream NF-kB/p38MAPK pathway.

High-performance, large-area flexible SERS substrates prepared by reactive ion etching for molecular detection.

In the realm of molecular detection, the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique has garnered increasing attention due to its rapid detection, high sensitivity, and non-destructive characteristics. However, conventional rigid SERS substrates are either costly to fabricate and challenging to prepare over a large area, or they exhibit poor uniformity and repeatability, making them unsuitable for inspecting curved object surfaces. In this work, we present a flexible SERS substrate with high sensitivity as well as good uniformity and repeatability. First, the flexible polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrate is manually formulated and cured. SiO2/Ag layer on the substrate can be obtained in a single process by using ion beam sputtering. Then, reactive ion etching is used to etch the upper SiO2layer of the film, which directly leads to the desired densely packed nanostructure. Finally, a layer of precious metal is deposited on the densely packed nanostructure by thermal evaporation. In our proposed system, the densely packed nanostructure obtained by etching the SiO2layer directly determines the SERS ability of the substrate. The bottom layer of silver mirror can reflect the penetrative incident light, the spacer layer of SiO2and the top layer of silver thin film can further localize the light in the system, which can realize the excellent absorption of Raman laser light, thus enhancing SERS ability. In the tests, the prepared substrates show excellent SERS performance in detecting crystalline violet with a detection limit of 10-11M. The development of this SERS substrate is anticipated to offer a highly effective and convenient method for molecular substance detection.

Bioinformatics identification of potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for ischemic stroke and vascular dementia.

Ischemic stroke and vascular dementia, as common cerebrovascular diseases, with the former causing irreversible neurological damage and the latter causing cognitive and memory impairment, are closely related and have long received widespread attention. Currently, the potential causative genes of these two diseases have yet to be investigated, and effective early diagnostic tools for the diseases have not yet emerged. In this study, we screened new potential biomarkers and analyzed new therapeutic targets for both diseases from the perspective of immune infiltration. Two gene expression profiles on ischemic stroke and vascular dementia were obtained from the NCBI GEO database, and key genes were identified by LASSO regression and SVM-RFE algorithms, and key genes were analyzed by GO and KEGG enrichment. The CIBERSORT algorithm was applied to the gene expression profile species of the two diseases to quantify the 24 subpopulations of immune cells. Moreover, logistic regression modeling analysis was applied to illustrate the stability of the key genes in the diagnosis. Finally, the key genes were validated using RT-PCR assay. A total of 105 intersecting DEGs genes were obtained in the 2 sets of GEO datasets, and bioinformatics functional analysis of the intersecting DEGs genes showed that GO was mainly involved in the purine ribonucleoside triphosphate metabolic process，respiratory chain complex，DNA-binding transcription factor binding and active transmembrane transporter activity. KEGG is mainly involved in the Oxidative phosphorylation, cAMP signaling pathway. The LASSO regression algorithm and SVM-RFE algorithm finally obtained three genes, GAS2L1, ARHGEF40 and PFKFB3, and the logistic regression prediction model determined that the three genes, GAS2L1 (AUC: 0.882), ARHGEF40 (AUC: 0.867) and PFKFB3 (AUC: 0.869), had good diagnostic performance. Meanwhile, the two disease core genes and immune infiltration were closely related, GAS2L1 and PFKFB3 had the highest positive correlation with macrophage M1 (p < 0.001) and the highest negative correlation with mast cell activation (p = 0.0017); ARHGEF40 had the highest positive correlation with macrophage M1 and B cells naive (p < 0.001), the highest negative correlation with B cell memory highest correlation (p = 0.0047). RT-PCR results showed that the relative mRNA expression levels of GAS2L1, ARHGEF40, and PFKFB3 were significantly elevated in the populations of both disease groups (p < 0.05). Immune infiltration-based models can be used to predict the diagnosis of patients with ischemic stroke and vascular dementia and provide a new perspective on the early diagnosis and treatment of both diseases.

Asymptotic dispersion engineering for ultra-broadband meta-optics.

Dispersion decomposes compound light into its monochromatic components, which is detrimental to broadband imaging but advantageous for spectroscopic applications. Metasurfaces provide a unique path to modulate the dispersion by adjusting structural parameters on a two-dimensional plane. However, conventional linear phase compensation does not adequately match the meta-unit's dispersion characteristics with required complex dispersion, hindering at-will dispersion engineering over a very wide bandwidth particularly. Here, we propose an asymptotic phase compensation strategy for ultra-broadband dispersion-controlled metalenses. Metasurfaces with extraordinarily high aspect ratio nanostructures have been fabricated for arbitrary dispersion control in ultra-broad bandwidth, and we experimentally demonstrate the single-layer achromatic metalenses in the visible to infrared spectrum (400 nm~1000 nm, NA = 0.164). Our proposed scheme provides a comprehensive theoretical framework for single-layer meta-optics, allowing for arbitrary dispersion manipulation without bandwidth restrictions. This development is expected to have significant applications in ultra-broadband imaging and chromatography detection, among others.

Topologically optimized concentric-nanoring metalens with 1 mm diameter, 0.8†NA and 600†nm imaging resolution in the visible.

Metalenses can achieve diffraction-limited focusing via localized phase modification of the incoming light beam. However, the current metalenses face to the restrictions on simultaneously achieving large diameter, large numerical aperture, broad working bandwidth and the structure manufacturability. Herein, we present a kind of metalenses composed of concentric nanorings that can address these restrictions using topology optimization approach. Compared to existing inverse design approaches, the computational cost of our optimization method is greatly reduced for large-size metalenses. With its design flexibility, the achieved metalens can work in the whole visible range with millimeter size and a numerical aperture of 0.8 without involving high-aspect ratio structures and large refractive index materials. Electron-beam resist PMMA with a low refractive index is directly used as the material of the metalens, enabling a much more simplified manufacturing process. Experimental results show that the imaging performance of the fabricated metalens has a resolution better than 600 nm corresponding to the measured FWHM of 745 nm.

Association of C-reactive protein gene polymorphisms with the risk of ischemic stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The heterogeneous, complex condition known as ischemic stroke (IS) is brought on by the interaction of a number of risk factors and genetic variables. The association between C-reactive protein (CRP) gene polymorphisms and IS has, however, been the subject of inconsistent findings. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to comprehensively address possible associations of CRP genes with the risk of IS. METHODS: A comprehensive literature search for all the published articles was performed in electronic databases including PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar from January 1, 1950 to June 30, 2022. Odds ratio (OR) with 95% Confidence interval (CIs) along with fixed/random effect models were used to calculate summary estimates. RESULTS: Twelve case-control studies totalling 3880 IS cases and 5233 controls were included for the association of CRP gene polymorphisms (rs1800947, rs1130864, rs3093059, rs2794521, and rs1205). Across all genotyping models, we discovered that rs1130864, rs3093059, rs2794521, and rs1205SNPs were not substantially related to IS risk. A trend for significant association for rs1800947 under dominant (OR = 1.19; 95% CI = 0.97 to 1.48), recessive (OR = 1.49; 95% CI = 0.71 to 3.14) and allelic model (OR = 1.21; 95% CI = 0.99 to 1.48) was observed. However, protective association for rs1130864 under dominant (OR = 0.80; 95% CI = 0.70 to 0.91) and rs3093059 under allelic model (OR = 0.18; 95% CI = 0.14 to 0.22) was found. CONCLUSION: Our thorough study revealed that the CRP gene variants rs1800947, rs1130864, rs3093059, rs2794521, and rs1205 could not be related to the risk of ischemic stroke. However, additional research must focus on the rs1800947 polymorphisms in a particular group.

Analysis of antiplatelet therapy adherence in patients with ischemic cerebral stroke.

BACKGROUND: The related factors affecting the adherence of ischemic cerebral stroke (ICS) patients to antiplatelet therapy have attracted much attention. METHODS: Patients with ICS (confirmed by CT or MRI) were enrolled from January 2020 to July 2021. The demographic data were retrospectively investigated and analyzed. The adherence calculation was as follows: Adherence = number of tablets taken/number of tablets needed to be taken. Adherence < 100% was defined as nonadherence. Severe nonadherence is defined as adherence ≤ 75%. RESULTS: A total of 229 patients with ICS were enrolled. We found no significant difference in the proportion of patients with nonadherence, while the proportion of severe nonadherence in the aspirin group was significantly higher (p < .001). Multivariable analysis indicated that medical insurance (odds ratio [OR] = 0.071, p < .001) and regular exercise (OR = 0.438, p = .015) were independent factors associated with adherence. In addition, only medical insurance (OR = 5.475, p < .001) and aspirin treatment (OR = 0.228, p < .001) were independent risk factors associated with severe nonadherence. We therefore constructed a nomogram plot and a model as follows: Adherence risk score = 3 × medical insurance + regular exercise. Patients were divided into low-risk and high-risk groups for adherence based on the median model score. A total of 13.3% of patients in the low-risk group were nonadherent patients compared with 53.4% in the high-risk group (p < .001). Similarly, 8.4% of patients in the low-risk group had severe nonadherence compared with 19.9% in the high-risk group (p = .022). Moreover, in low-risk patients, no significant difference was observed. In patients with high risk, aspirin-treated patients showed significantly decreased adherence compared with the other two groups. CONCLUSION: Medical insurance and regular exercise were independent factors for antiplatelet therapy adherence. For patients with high model scores, timely intervention is necessary.

Angular momentum holography via a minimalist metasurface for optical nested encryption.

Metasurfaces can perform high-performance multi-functional integration by manipulating the abundant physical dimensions of light, demonstrating great potential in high-capacity information technologies. The orbital angular momentum (OAM) and spin angular momentum (SAM) dimensions have been respectively explored as the independent carrier for information multiplexing. However, fully managing these two intrinsic properties in information multiplexing remains elusive. Here, we propose the concept of angular momentum (AM) holography which can fully synergize these two fundamental dimensions to act as the information carrier, via a single-layer, non-interleaved metasurface. The underlying mechanism relies on independently controlling the two spin eigenstates and arbitrary overlaying them in each operation channel, thereby spatially modulating the resulting waveform at will. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate an AM meta-hologram allowing the reconstruction of two sets of holographic images, i.e., the spin-orbital locked and the spin-superimposed ones. Remarkably, leveraging the designed dual-functional AM meta-hologram, we demonstrate a novel optical nested encryption scheme, which is able to achieve parallel information transmission with ultra-high capacity and security. Our work opens a new avenue for optionally manipulating the AM, holding promising applications in the fields of optical communication, information security and quantum science.

The Effect of Fabrication Error on the Performance of Mid-Infrared Metalens with Large Field-of-View.

Mid-infrared large field-of-view (FOV) imaging optics play a vital role in infrared imaging and detection. The metalens, which is composed of subwavelength-arrayed structures, provides a new possibility for the miniaturization of large FOV imaging systems. However, the inaccuracy during fabrication is the main obstacle to developing practical uses for metalenses. Here, we introduce the principle and method of designing a large FOV doublet metalens at the mid-infrared band. Then, the quantitative relationship between the fabrication error and the performance of the doublet metalens with a large FOV from four different fabrication errors is explored by using the finite-difference time-domain method. The simulation results show that the inclined sidewall error has the greatest impact on the focusing performance, and the interlayer alignment error deforms the focusing beam and affects the focusing performance, while the spacer thickness error has almost no impact on the performance. The contents discussed in this paper can help manufacturers determine the allowable processing error range of the large FOV doublet metalens and the priority level for optimizing the process, which is of significance.

Tunable Polarization-Multiplexed Achromatic Dielectric Metalens.

Tunable metasurfaces provide a compact and efficient strategy for optical active wavefront shaping. Varifocal metalens is one of the most important applications. However, the existing tunable metalens rarely serves broadband wavelengths restricting their applications in broadband imaging and color display due to chromatic aberration. Herein, an electrically tunable polarization-multiplexed achromatic metalens integrated with twisted nematic liquid crystals (TNLCs) in the visible region is demonstrated. The phase profiles at different wavelengths under two orthogonal polarization channels are customized by the particle swarm optimization algorithm and matched with the dielectric metaunits database to achieve polarization-multiplexed achromatic performance. By combining the broadband linear polarization conversion ability of TNLC, the tunability of varifocal achromatic metalens is realized by applying different voltages. Further, the electrically tunable customized dispersion-manipulated metalens and switchable color metaholograms are demonstrated. The proposed devices will accelerate the application of metasurfaces in broadband zoom imaging, AR/VR displays and spectral detection.

Advances of circRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Ischemic stroke (IS) is the most common type of stroke, and its pathophysiological process is more complex. In recent years, the key regulatory roles of non-coding RNA (miRNA, circRNA) and mRNA in the development of IS have attracted more attention. In the process of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury, circRNA can regulate nerves, blood vessels and immune system through miRNA/mRNA axis, so as to affect the neurovascular unit of IS. The combination of these noncoding RNAs and mRNAs can be used as non-invasive biomarkers and therapeutic tools for IS diagnosis, prognosis and brain injury. Therefore, it is very important to study the potential molecular mechanism, activation pathway and treatment methods of circRNA/miRNA/mRNA network in IS. This review will focus on the latest progress of circRNA/miRNA/mRNA regulatory network, we have also included some circRNAs, which does not mediate through a miRNA, so we also include circRNA -mRNA network. And explore the application prospect of these RNAs as potential therapeutic targets in the prevention and treatment of IS.
