    Abstract Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a type of difficult-to-cure arthralgia with a worldwide prevalence. It severely affects people's living standards. For a long time, bee venom has been used to treat RA and has shown good results. Melittin is the main active component of bee venom used for RA treatment, but the molecular mechanism of melittin in RA treatments remains unclear.
    Methods: Potential melittin and RA targets were obtained from relevant databases, and common targets of melittin and RA were screened. The STRING database was used to build the PPI network and screen the core targets after visualization. The core targets were enriched by Gene Ontology functional annotation and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway. Finally, the binding of melittin to target proteins was evaluated through simulated molecular docking, which verified the reliability of the prediction results of network pharmacology.
    Results: In total, 138 melittin targets and 5795 RA targets were obtained from relevant databases, and 90 common targets were obtained through intersection. Eighteen core targets, such as STAT3, AKT1, tumor necrosis factor, and JUN, were screened out. Enrichment analysis results suggested that melittin plays an anti-RA role mainly through tumor necrosis factor, interleukin-17, toll-like receptors, and advanced glycation end products-RAGE signaling pathways, and pathogenic bacterial infection. Molecular docking results suggested that melittin has good docking activity with core target proteins.
    Conclusion: RA treatment with melittin is the result of a multi-target and multi-pathway interaction. This study offers a theoretical basis and scientific evidence for further exploring melittin in RA therapy.

    Abstract As an enabler technique, data fusion has gained great attention in the context of Internet of things (IoT). In traditional settings, data fusion is done at the cloud server. So the data to be fused should be transferred from the sensor nodes to the cloud server before data fusion. Such an application mode of data fusion inherits disturbing concerns from the cloud computing framework, e.g., privacy-leaking, large latency between data capture and computation, excessive ingress bandwidth consumption. We take into account how to do temporal data fusion at the edge to bypass the above issues. We present a Gaussian process based temporal data fusion (GPTDF) method targeted for the problem of sequential online prediction at the edge. The GPTDF method fits the edge computing framework and thus inherits desirable properties from edge computing, such as privacy-preserving, low latency between data capture and computation, and tiny bandwidth consumption. Through a real-data experiment using archived traffic datasets from the Caltrans Performance Measurement System (PeMS), we demonstrate that the application of GPTDF can provide more timely and accurate real-time predictions at the network edge.

    Abstract The objective of this study was to construct a recombinant adenovirus for future CSFV vaccines used in the pig industry for the reduction of losses involved in CSF outbreaks. The Erns and E2 genes of classical swine fever virus (CSFV), which encode the two main protective glycoproteins from the "Shimen" strain of CSFV, were combined and inserted into the replication-defective human adenovirus type-5 and named the rAd-Erns-E2. Nine pigs were randomly assigned to three treatment groups (three pigs in each group) including the rAd-Erns-E2, hAd-CMV control and DMEM control. Intramuscular vaccination with 2×10(6) TCID(50) of the rAd-Erns-E2 was administered two times with an interval of 21 days. At 42 days post inoculation, pigs in all groups were challenged with a lethal dose of 1×10(3) TCID(50) CSFV "Shimen" strain. Observation of clinical signs was made and the existence of CSFV RNA was detected. Animals in the hAd-CMV and DMEM groups showed severe clinical CSF symptoms and were euthanized from 7 to 10 days after the challenge. However, no adverse clinical CSF signs were observed in vaccinated pigs after the administration of rAd-Erns-E2 and even after CSFV challenge. Neither CSFV RNA nor pathological changes were detected in the tissues of interest of the above vaccinated pigs. These results implied that the recombination adenovirus carrying the Erns-E2 genes could be used to prevent swine from classical swine fever.

Nine pigs were randomly assigned to three treatment groups (three pigs in each group) including the rAd-Erns-E2, hAd-CMV control and DMEM control. Intramuscular vaccination with 2×10⁶ TCID₅₀ of the rAd-Erns-E2 was administered two times with an interval of 21days. At 42days post inoculation, pigs in all groups were challenged with a lethal dose of 1×10³ TCID₅₀ CSFV “Shimen” strain. Observation of clinical signs was made and the existence of CSFV RNA was detected. Animals in the hAd-CMV and DMEM groups showed severe clinical CSF symptoms and were euthanized from 7 to 10days after the challenge.
