NLRP3-dependent pyroptosis exacerbates coxsackievirus A16 and coxsackievirus A10-induced inflammatory response and viral replication in SH-SY5Y cells.

Coxsackievirus A16 (CV-A16) and coxsackievirus A10 (CV-A10), more commonly etiological agents of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD), are capable of causing severe neurological syndromes with high fatalities, but their neuropathogenesis has rarely been studied. Mounting evidence indicated that pyroptosis is an inflammatory form of cell death that might be widely involved in the pathogenic mechanisms of neurotropic viruses. Our study was designed to examine the effects of NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis in CV-A16- and CV-A10-induced inflammatory neuropathologic formation. In this work, it was showed that SH-SY5Y cells were susceptible to CV-A16 and CV-A10, and meanwhile their infections could result in a decreasing cell viability and an increasing LDH release as well as Caspase1 activation. Moreover, CV-A16 and CV-A10 infections triggered NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis and promoted the release of inflammatory cytokines. Additionally, activated NLRP3 accelerated the pyroptosis formation and aggravated the inflammatory response, but inhibited NLRP3 had a dampening effect on the above situation. Finally, it was further revealed that NLRP3 agonist enhanced the viral replication, but NLRP3 inhibitor suppressed the viral replication, suggesting that NLRP3-driven pyroptosis might support CV-A16 and CV-A10 production in SH-SY5Y cells. Together, our findings demonstrated a mechanism by which CV-A16 and CV-A10 induce inflammatory responses by evoking NLRP3 inflammasome-regulated pyroptosis, which in turn further stimulated the viral replication, providing novel insights into the pathogenesis of CV-A16 and CV-A10 infections.

Sialic acids as attachment factors in mosquitoes mediating Japanese encephalitis virus infection.

The role of Culex mosquitoes in the transmission of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is crucial, yet the mechanisms of JEV infection in these vectors remain unclear. Previous research has indicated that various host factors participate in JEV infection. Herein, we present evidence that mosquito sialic acids enhance JEV infection both in vivo and in vitro. By treating mosquitoes and C6/36 cells with neuraminidase or lectin, the function of sialic acids is effectively blocked, resulting in significant inhibition of JEV infection. Furthermore, knockdown of the sialic acid biosynthesis genes in Culex mosquitoes also leads to a reduction in JEV infection. Moreover, our research revealed that sialic acids play a role in the attachment of JEV to mosquito cells, but not in its internalization. To further explore the mechanisms underlying the promotion of JEV attachment by sialic acids, we conducted immunoprecipitation experiments to confirm the direct binding of sialic acids to the last α-helix in JEV envelope protein domain III. Overall, our study contributes to a molecular comprehension of the interaction between mosquitoes and JEV and offers potential strategies for preventing the dissemination of flavivirus in natural environments.IMPORTANCEIn this study, we aimed to investigate the impact of glycoconjugate sialic acids on mosquito infection with Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV). Our findings demonstrate that sialic acids play a crucial role in enhancing JEV infection by facilitating the attachment of the virus to the cell membrane. Furthermore, our investigation revealed that sialic acids directly bind to the final α-helix in the JEV envelope protein domain III, thereby accelerating virus adsorption. Collectively, our results highlight the significance of mosquito sialic acids in JEV infection within vectors, contributing to a better understanding of the interaction between mosquitoes and JEV.

MST1/2 exerts a pivotal role in inducing neuroinflammation and Coxsackievirus-A10 replication by interacting with innate immunity.

Coxsackievirus-A10 (CV-A10), responsible for the hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) pandemic, could cause serious central nervous system (CNS) complications. The underlying molecular basis of CV-A10 and host interactions inducing neuropathogenesis is still unclear. The Hippo signaling pathway, historically known for a dominator of organ development and homeostasis, has recently been implicated as an immune regulator. However, its role in host defense against CV-A10 has not been investigated. Herein, it was found that CV-A10 proliferated in HMC3 cells and promoted the release of inflammatory cytokines. Moreover, pattern recognition receptors (PRRs)-mediated pathways, including TLR3-TRIF-TRAF3-TBK1-NF-κB axis, RIG-I/MDA5-MAVS-TRAF3-TBK1-NF-κB axis and TLR7-MyD88-IRAK1/IRAK4-TRAF6-TAK1-NF-κB axis, were examined to be elevated under CV-A10 infection. Meanwhile, it was further uncovered that Hippo signaling pathway was inhibited in HMC3 cells with CV-A10 infection. Previous studies have been reported that there exist complex relations between innate immune and Hippo signaling pathway. Then, plasmids of knockdown and overexpression of MST1/2 were transfected into HMC3 cells. Our results showed that MST1/2 suppressed the levels of inflammatory cytokines via interacting with TBK1 and IRAK1, and also enhanced virus production via restricting IRF3 and IFN-ß expressions. Overall, these data obviously pointed out that CV-A10 accelerated the formation of neuroinflammation by the effect of the Hippo pathway on the PRRs-mediated pathway, which delineates a negative immunoregulatory role for MST1/2 in CV-A10 infection and the potential for this pathway to be pharmacologically targeted to treat CV-A10.

Robustly and Intrinsically Stretchable Ionic Gel-Based Moisture-Enabled Power Generator with High Human Body Conformality.

Direct harvesting of energy from moist air will be a promising route to supply electricity for booming wearable and distributed electronics, with the recent rapid development of the moisture-enabled electricity generator (MEG). However, the easy spatial distortion of rigid MEG materials under severe deformation extremely inconveniences the human body with intense physical activity, seriously hindering the desirable applications. Here, an intrinsically stretchable moisture-enabled electricity generator (s-MEG) is developed based on a well-fabricated stretchable functional ionic gel (SIG) with a flexible double-network structure and reversible cross-linking interactions, demonstrating stable electricity output performance even when stretched up to 150% strain and high human body conformality. This SIG exhibits ultrahigh tensile strain (∼600%), and a 1 cm × 1 cm SIG film-based s-MEG can generate a voltage of ∼0.4 V and a current of ∼5.7 µA when absorbing water from humidity air. Based on the strong adhesion and the excellent interface combination of SIG and rough fabric electrodes induced by the fabrication process, s-MEG is able to realize bending or twisting deformation and shows outstanding electricity output stability with ∼90% performance retention after 5000 cycles of bending tests. By connecting s-MEG units in series or parallel, an integrated device of "moisture-powered wristband" is developed to wear on the wrist of humans and drive a flexible sensor for tracking finger motions. Additionally, a comfortable "moisture-powered sheath" based on s-MEGs is created, which can be worn like clothing on human arms to generate energy while walking and flexing the elbow, which is promising in the field of wearable electronics.

Correction for 'Kirigami-enabled stretchable laser-induced graphene heaters for wearable thermotherapy' by Junyu Chen et al., Mater. Horiz., 2024, 11, 2010-2020, https://doi.org/10.1039/D3MH01884A.

Triterpenoids and triterpenoid saponins from Vitex negundo and their anti-inflammatory activities.

Seven undescribed polyoxygenated ursane-type triterpenoids (vitnegundins A-G), three undescribed triterpenoid saponins (vitnegundins H-J), and 17 known ones were isolated from an EtOH extract of the aerial parts of Vitex negundo L. The structures of the undescribed compounds were established by extensive spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations of vitnegundins A, B, and E were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Vitnegundins B-D are pentacyclic triterpenoids possessing rare cis-fused C/D rings and vitnegundins C-H represent undescribed ursane-type triterpenoids with 12,19-epoxy moiety. In the biological activity assay, vitnegundin A, vitnegundin E, and swinhoeic acid displayed inhibitory effects against LPS-induced NO release in BV-2 microglial cells, with IC50 values of 11.8, 44.2, and 19.6 µM, respectively.

Kirigami-enabled stretchable laser-induced graphene heaters for wearable thermotherapy.

Flexible and stretchable heaters are increasingly recognized for their great potential in wearable thermotherapy to treat muscle spasms, joint injuries and arthritis. However, issues like lengthy processing, high fabrication cost, and toxic chemical involvement are obstacles on the way to popularize stretchable heaters for medical use. Herein, using a single-step customizable laser fabrication method, we put forward the design of cost-effective wearable laser-induced graphene (LIG) heaters with kirigami patterns, which offer multimodal stretchability and conformal fit to the skin around the human body. First, we develop the manufacturing process of the LIG heaters with three different kirigami patterns enabling reliable stretchability by out-of-plane buckling. Then, by adjusting the laser parameters, we confirm that the LIG produced by medium laser power could maintain a balance between mechanical strength and electrical conductivity. By optimizing cutting-spacing ratios through experimental measurements of stress, resistance and temperature profiles, as well as finite element analysis (FEA), we determine that a larger cutting-spacing ratio within the machining precision will lead to better mechanical, electrical and heating performance. The optimized stretchable heater in this paper could bear significant unidirectional strain over 100% or multidirectional strain over 20% without major loss in conductivity and heating performance. On-body tests and fatigue tests also proved great robustness in practical scenarios. With the advantage of safe usage, simple and customizable fabrication, easy bonding with skin, and multidirectional stretchability, the on-skin heaters are promising to substitute the traditional heating packs/wraps for thermotherapy.

Helicobacter pylori and immunotherapy for gastrointestinal cancer.

Helicobacter pylori infection is associated with the risk of gastrointestinal (GI) cancers; however, its impact on immunotherapy for GI cancers remains uncertain. In this study, we included 10,122 patients who underwent 13C-urea breath tests. Among 636 patients with Epstein-Barr virus-negative microsatellite-stable gastric cancer (GC) who were treated with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy, H. pylori-positive patients exhibited significantly longer immune-related progression-free survival (irPFS) compared with H. pylori-negative patients (6.97 months versus 5.03 months, p < 0.001, hazard ratio [HR] 0.76, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.62-0.95, p = 0.015). Moreover, the H. pylori-positive group demonstrated a trend of 4 months longer median immune-related overall survival (irOS) than the H. pylori-negative group. H. pylori-positive GC displayed higher densities of PD-L1+ cells and nonexhausted CD8+ T cells, indicative of a "hot" tumor microenvironment. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that H. pylori-positive GC shared molecular characteristics similar to those of immunotherapy-sensitive GC. However, H. pylori-positive patients with DNA mismatch repair-deficient (dMMR)/microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) colorectal adenocarcinoma and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) had shorter irPFS compared with H. pylori-negative patients (16.13 months versus not reached, p = 0.042, HR 2.26, 95% CI 1.13-4.50, p = 0.021 and 5.57 months versus 6.97 months, p = 0.029, HR 1.59, 95% CI 1.14-2.23, p = 0.006, respectively). The difference in irOS between H. pylori-positive and -negative patients had the same trend as that between dMMR/MSI-H colorectal adenocarcinoma and ESCC patients. We also identified a trend of shorter irPFS and irOS in H. pylori-positive liver cancer and pancreatic cancer patients. In summary, our findings supported that H. pylori infection is a beneficial factor for GC immunotherapy by shaping hot tumor microenvironments. However, in dMMR/MSI-H colorectal adenocarcinoma and ESCC patients, H. pylori adversely affects the efficacy of immunotherapy.

Eudesmane sesquiterpenoids with inhibitory effects on NO production from Artemisia princeps.

Five undescribed eudesmane methyl esters (1-5), three undescribed eudesmane-12,6-olides (6-8), and 21 known analogues (9-29) were isolated from the aerial part of Artemisia princeps Pamp. Their structures were established by detailed analysis of the NMR and HRESIMS data. The absolute configurations of 1-8 were determined based on single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and ECD calculations. Moreover, the inhibitory effects on LPS-induced NO production in BV-2 microglial cells of all the isolated compounds were assessed. Except for compounds 2, 4, 10, and 11, the others showed significant inhibitory activities, with IC50 values of 0.73-18.66 µM, wherein the potential structure-activity relationship was also discussed.

Selectively fractionate hemicelluloses with high molecular weight from poplar thermomechanical pulp by tetramethylammonium hydroxide.

Selective fractionation of hemicelluloses is of great significance for realizing high-value application of hemicelluloses and comprehensive utilization of lignocellulosic biomass. Tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) solvent has been confirmed as a promising solvent to selectively fractionate hemicelluloses from holocellulose. Herein, TMAH solvent was adopted to pretreat poplar thermomechanical pulp (PTMP) for the selective fractionation of hemicelluloses and enhancement of enzymatic hydrolysis performance of residues. The maximal hemicelluloses yield (65.0 %) and excellent cellulose retention rate (93.3 %) were achieved after pretreatment by the 25 wt% TMAH solvent, while the delignification was only 33.9 %. The hemicelluloses fractions could be selectively fractionated with high molecular weights (109,800-118,500 g/mol), the contents of Klason lignin in them were low (3.2-5.9 %), and the dominating structure of them was 4-O-methylglucurono-ß-D-xylan. Compared to the H2SO4 and NaOH methods, the hemicelluloses fractionated by TMAH method exhibited higher yields, more complete structures and higher molecular weights. Furthermore, the crystalline structure of cellulose practically remained stable, and the highest yield of enzymatic hydrolysis glucose was 57.5 %, which was 3.3 times of that of PTMP. The fractionation effectiveness of TMAH solvent was not significantly reduced after repeatedly recycling. This work demonstrated TMAH solvent could selectively fractionate hemicelluloses from PTMP and efficiently promote sustainable poplar-based biorefinery.

Three new phenolic glycosides and a new lignan glycoside from Gaultheria leucocarpa var. yunnanensis.

Besides, compound 7 also represented significant DPPH radical scavenging activity with EC50 of 18.75 µM, comparable with vitamin C (EC50 = 15.77 µM).

Three new phenylpropanoid glucosides and a new tyramine-type alkamide from Piper puberulum.

Three new phenylpropanoid glycosides, piperpubelide (1), 1-propionyl-3-hydroxy-phenyl-4-O-ß-D-glucopyranoside (2), and 1-propionyl-4-hydroxy-phenyl-3-O-ß-D-glucopyranoside (3), a new tyramine-type alkamide, puberulumine L (4), together with thirteen known compounds (5-17) were isolated from Piper puberulum (Benth.) Maxim. Their structures were elucidated by analysis of spectroscopic data involving NMR, IR, UV, and HRESIMS data. Calculated and experimental ECD was used to confirm the configuration of compound 1. Compounds 14, 16, and 17 exhibited relatively positive DPPH radical scavenging activities, with corresponding EC50 of 10.23, 24.12, and 21.83 µM, respectively. In addition, compound 5 inhibited LPS-induced NO production in BV-2 microglia with an IC50 value of 18.05 µM.

Protein O-GlcNAcylation: The sweet hub in liver metabolic flexibility from a (patho)physiological perspective.

O-GlcNAcylation is a dynamic, reversible and atypical O-glycosylation that regulates various cellular physiological processes via conformation, stabilisation, localisation, chaperone interaction or activity of target proteins. The O-GlcNAcylation cycle is precisely controlled by collaboration between O-GlcNAc transferase and O-GlcNAcase. Uridine-diphosphate-N-acetylglucosamine, the sole donor of O-GlcNAcylation produced by the hexosamine biosynthesis pathway, is controlled by the input of glucose, glutamine, acetyl coenzyme A and uridine triphosphate, making it a sensor of the fluctuation of molecules, making O-GlcNAcylation a pivotal nutrient sensor for the metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids, lipids and nucleotides. O-GlcNAcylation, particularly prevalent in liver, is the core hub for controlling systemic glucose homeostasis due to its nutritional sensitivity and precise spatiotemporal regulation of insulin signal transduction. The pathology of various liver diseases has highlighted hepatic metabolic disorder and dysfunction, and abnormal O-GlcNAcylation also plays a specific pathological role in these processes. Therefore, this review describes the unique features of O-GlcNAcylation and its dynamic homeostasis maintenance. Additionally, it explains the underlying nutritional sensitivity of O-GlcNAcylation and discusses its mechanism of spatiotemporal modulation of insulin signal transduction and liver metabolic homeostasis during the fasting and feeding cycle. This review emphasises the pathophysiological implications of O-GlcNAcylation in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and hepatic fibrosis, and focuses on the adverse effects of hyper O-GlcNAcylation on liver cancer progression and metabolic reprogramming.

The tumor immune microenvironment remodeling and response to HER2-targeted therapy in HER2-positive advanced gastric cancer.

Combination therapy with anti-HER2 agents and immunotherapy has demonstrated significant clinical benefits in gastric cancer (GC), but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we used multiplex immunohistochemistry to assess the changes of the tumor microenvironment in 47 advanced GC patients receiving anti-HER2 therapy. Additionally, we performed single-cell transcriptional sequencing to investigate potential cell-to-cell communication and molecular mechanisms in four HER2-positive GC baseline samples. We observed that post-treated the infiltration of NK cells, CD8+ T cells, and B lymphocytes were significantly higher in patients who benefited from anti-HER2 treatment than baseline. Further spatial distribution analysis demonstrated that the interaction scores between NK cells and CD8+ T cells, B lymphocytes and M2 macrophages, B lymphocytes and Tregs were also significantly higher in benefited patients. Cell-cell communication analysis from scRNA sequencing showed that NK cells utilized CCL3/CCL4-CCR5 to recruit CD8+ T cell infiltration. B lymphocytes employed CD74-APP/COPA/MIF to interact with M2 macrophages, and utilized TNF-FAS/ICOS/TNFRSR1B to interact with Tregs. These cell-cell interactions contribute to inhibit the immune resistance of M2 macrophages and Tregs. Our research provides potential guidance for the use of anti-HER2 therapy in combination with immune therapy.

Diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease via resting-state EEG: integration of spectrum, complexity, and synchronization signal features.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurogenerative disorder, making up 70% of total dementia cases with a prevalence of more than 55 million people. Electroencephalogram (EEG) has become a suitable, accurate, and highly sensitive biomarker for the identification and diagnosis of AD. Methods: In this study, a public database of EEG resting state-closed eye recordings containing 36 AD subjects and 29 normal subjects was used. And then, three types of signal features of resting-state EEG, i.e., spectrum, complexity, and synchronization, were performed by applying various signal processing and statistical methods, to obtain a total of 18 features for each signal epoch. Next, the supervised machine learning classification algorithms of decision trees, random forests, and support vector machine (SVM) were compared in categorizing processed EEG signal features of AD and normal cases with leave-one-person-out cross-validation. Results: The results showed that compared to normal cases, the major change in EEG characteristics in AD cases was an EEG slowing, a reduced complexity, and a decrease in synchrony. The proposed methodology achieved a relatively high classification accuracy of 95.65, 95.86, and 88.54% between AD and normal cases for decision trees, random forests, and SVM, respectively, showing that the integration of spectrum, complexity, and synchronization features for EEG signals can enhance the performance of identifying AD and normal subjects. Conclusion: This study recommended the integration of EEG features of spectrum, complexity, and synchronization for aiding the diagnosis of AD.

Ultralow-resistance electrochemical capacitor for integrable line filtering.

Electrochemical capacitors are expected to replace conventional electrolytic capacitors in line filtering for integrated circuits and portable electronics1-8. However, practical implementation of electrochemical capacitors into line-filtering circuits has not yet been achieved owing to the difficulty in synergistic accomplishment of fast responses, high specific capacitance, miniaturization and circuit-compatible integration1,4,5,9-12. Here we propose an electric-field enhancement strategy to promote frequency characteristics and capacitance simultaneously. By downscaling the channel width with femtosecond-laser scribing, a miniaturized narrow-channel in-plane electrochemical capacitor shows drastically reduced ionic resistances within both the electrode material and the electrolyte, leading to an ultralow series resistance of 39 mΩ cm2 at 120 Hz. As a consequence, an ultrahigh areal capacitance of up to 5.2 mF cm-2 is achieved with a phase angle of -80° at 120 Hz, twice as large as one of the highest reported previously4,13,14, and little degradation is observed over 1,000,000 cycles. Scalable integration of this electrochemical capacitor into microcircuitry shows a high integration density of 80 cells cm-2 and on-demand customization of capacitance and voltage. In light of excellent filtering performances and circuit compatibility, this work presents an important step of line-filtering electrochemical capacitors towards practical applications in integrated circuits and flexible electronics.

One-time fertilization of controlled-release urea with compound fertilizer and rapeseed cake maintains rice grain yield and improves nitrogen use efficiency under reduced nitrogen conditions.

Nitrogen (N) rate reduction and simplified fertilization can mitigate environmental impacts and reduce the involvement of manual labor in rice (Oryza sativa L.) production. Controlled-release urea (CRU) has been recommended as an effective alternative technique to conventional urea fertilization, and it can improve rice yield and N use efficiency (NUE) and reduce labor costs. However, the information on the effects of one-time fertilization with CRU on maintaining yield and improving NUE under reduced chemical N conditions is limited. In this study, controlled-release bulk blending fertilizer (CRF), consisting of CRU with release periods of 40 and 100 days, mixed with compound fertilizer, was applied as basal fertilizer. Increased ~20% plant density (ID) and rapeseed cake fertilizer (RC, increase 20% organic N) were combined with CRF, respectively. The N treatments with 20% chemical N reduction were as follows: reduced N fertilizer (RNF), CRF, CRF+ID, and CRF+RC. In addition, a conventional split fertilizer application with 300 kg ha-1 N was applied as the control (CK). Rice yield and its components, dry matter accumulation, N uptake, and NUE were investigated to evaluate whether one-time N fertilization realized stable yield and high NUE under reduced 20% chemical N conditions. Compared with CK, the CRF+RC treatment exhibited a comparable grain yield, while the other reduced N treatments (RNF, CRF, and CRF+ID) had a lower grain yield. Moreover, CRF+ID exhibited a higher rice grain yield than RNF or CRF under the same N level. Irrespective of exogenous organic N, CRF+RC exhibited significantly higher NUE than CK. The CRF+ID treatment showed a significantly higher N partial factor productivity (PFN) than CK but comparable N agronomic efficiency (NAE) and N recovery efficiency (NRE). Therefore, a one-time fertilizer application of CRF+RC maintained grain yield and improved the NUE while reducing the N rate and fertilization times, demonstrating its potential application in rice production.

Multistage coupling water-enabled electric generator with customizable energy output.

Constant water circulation between land, ocean and atmosphere contains great and sustainable energy, which has been successfully employed to generate electricity by the burgeoning water-enabled electric generator. However, water in various forms (e.g. liquid, moisture) is inevitably discharged after one-time use in current single-stage water-enabled electric generators, resulting in the huge waste of inherent energy within water circulation. Herein, a multistage coupling water-enabled electric generator is proposed, which utilizes the internal liquid flow and subsequently generated moisture to produce electricity synchronously, achieving a maximum output power density of ~92 mW m-2 (~11 W m-3). Furthermore, a distributary design for internal water in different forms enables the integration of water-flow-enabled and moisture-diffusion-enabled electricity generation layers into mc-WEG by a "flexible building blocks" strategy. Through a three-stage adjustment process encompassing size control, space optimization, and large-scale integration, the multistage coupling water-enabled electric generator realizes the customized electricity output for diverse electronics. Twenty-two units connected in series can deliver ~10 V and ~280 µA, which can directly lighten a table lamp for 30 min without aforehand capacitor charging. In addition, multistage coupling water-enabled electric generators exhibit excellent flexibility and environmental adaptability, providing a way for the development of water-enabled electric generators.

MicroRNA expression profile of human umbilical vein endothelial cells in response to coxsackievirus A10 infection reveals a potential role of miR-143-3p in maintaining the integrity of the blood-brain barrier.

Coxsackievirus A10 (CV-A10) has been one of the main etiologies of hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) epidemics in recent years and can cause mild to severe illness and even death. Most of these severe and fatal cases were closely associated with neurological impairments, but the potential mechanism of neuropathological injury triggered by CV-A10 infection has not been elucidated. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), implicated in the regulation of gene expression in a post-transcriptional manner, play a vital role in the pathogenesis of various central nervous system (CNS) diseases; therefore, they serve as diagnostic biomarkers and are emerging as novel therapeutic targets for CNS injuries. To gain insights into the CV-A10-induced regulation of host miRNA-processing machinery, we employed high-throughput sequencing to identify differentially expressed miRNAs in CV-A10-infected human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and further analyzed the potential functions of these miRNAs during CV-A10 infection. The results showed that CV-A10 infection could induce 189 and 302 significantly differentially expressed miRNAs in HUVECs at 24 and 72 hpi, respectively, compared with the uninfected control. Moreover, the expression of four selected miRNAs and their relevant mRNAs was determined to verify the sequencing data by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) methods. After that, gene target prediction and functional annotation revealed that the targets of these dysregulated miRNAs were mostly enriched in cell proliferation, signal transduction, cAMP signalling pathway, cellular response to interleukin-6, ventral spinal cord interneuron differentiation, negative regulation of glial cell differentiation, neuron migration, positive regulation of neuron projection development, etc., which were primarily involved in the processes of basic physiology, host immunity, and neurological impairments and further reflected vital regulatory roles of miRNA in viral pathogenicity. Finally, the construction of a miRNA-regulated network also suggested that the complex regulatory mechanisms mediated by miRNAs might be involved in viral pathogenesis and virus-host interactions during CV-A10 infection. Furthermore, among these dysregulated miRNAs, miR-143-3p was demonstrated to be involved in the maintenance of blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity.
