MacELISA、RPHI和IFAT用于流行性出血热早期诊断的比较

比较了IgM捕获ELISA(MacELISA)、反向间接血凝抑制试验(RPHI)和间接免疫荧光抗体试验(IFAT)检测流行性出血热(EHF)病人血清特异性抗体的结果。MacELISA对急性期血清IgM抗体的阳性检出率与RPHI对总抗体的阳性检出率相近,两法都具有较高的敏感性。而IFAT检测IgG抗体的阳性率则较低。总抗体滴度(RPHI)与IgG抗体滴度(IFAT)相关(r=0.542,P<0.01),而与IgM抗体滴度(MacELISA)无明显相关(r<0.1)。但进一步研究发现,3日内血清IgM抗体滴度与总抗体滴度(RPHI)存在相关关系(r=0.701,P<0.01),表明IgM抗体可能也与发病初期RPHI的较高的阳性检出率有关。本工作表明,MacELISA作为一种早期诊断方法具有高度的特异性和敏感性,而RPHI操作简便、快速、敏感性高,但存在一定的非特异性。研究还发现,流行区临床诊断为EHF的病人,IFAT(IgG)和RPHI检测均阳性,而MacELISA(IgM)阴性,提示用RPHI进行血清学诊断时,检查双份血清是必要的。     

内蒙地区发热患者血清中冠状病毒抗体的检测

目的分析内蒙地区发热患者中冠状病毒的感染情况。方法以SARS冠状病毒感染Vero细胞涂片为冠状病毒抗原片,用间接免疫荧光法分别检测55例发热患者和68例正常人血清中冠状病毒的IgG、IgM抗体。结果发热患者血清中冠状病毒IgG抗体和IgM抗体阳性率分别为29.1%(16/55)和10.9%(6/55),而正常人血清中只检测到2.9%(2/68)的IgG抗体,且未检测到IgM抗体,2组患者的IgG和IgM抗体阳性率比较差异均有显著性;随机选取7例患者的IgG阳性血清进行SRAS冠状病毒的特异性抗体封闭实验,结果有6例血清仍为阳性,有1例血清转为阴性,说明冠状病毒IgG抗体阳性血清中85.7%为普通冠状病毒特异性,14.3%为SARS冠状病毒特异性。结论普通冠状病毒是内蒙地区发热患者的主要病原体之一,部分患者还存在SARS冠状病毒的既往感染。

41例新型冠状病毒肺炎患者血清抗体检测分析

目的比较新型冠状病毒肺炎(corona virus disease 2019, COVID-19)不同临床分型患者血清中新冠病毒(SARS-CoV-2)特异性IgM和IgG抗体的差异和不同时期的浓度变化,并以抗体水平变化判断核酸复阳是否为二次感染。方法选取2020年2—3月南华大学附属南华医院收治的41例COVID-19患者,共收集其患病15-65天血清标本126份;作为对照,同时选取91例发热门诊核酸检测阴性患者采集血清各1份。采用化学发光免疫分析法(chemiluminescence immunoassay, CLIA)检测血清中新冠病毒IgM和IgG抗体水平,经组间t检验和Mann-Whitney U检验对抗体浓度变化进行统计学分析。结果无症状感染者IgM和IgG抗体平均浓度高于阴性对照组,低于普通型和重型患者,差异均具有统计学意义(P0.05);普通型患者IgM和IgG抗体浓度均低于重型患者,IgM抗体差异有统计学意义(P0.05),但IgG抗体差异没有统计学意义(P=0.06);COVID-19患者急性期的IgM和IgG抗体浓度均高于康复期,差异均有统计学意义(P0.05)。复阳后,患者体内IgM和IgG抗体浓度没有增加,持续下降。结论 COVID-19患者的SARS-CoV-2 IgM和IgG抗体浓度,依无症状感染、普通型、重症型患者临床类型逐次升高,康复期逐渐降低,但大部分体内仍存在较高水平的IgG抗体。核酸复阳之后的SARS-CoV-2 IgM和IgG抗体浓度并未增高,说明未发生二次感染。     

捕捉法ELISA检测脊髓灰质炎IgA抗体方法的建立与应用

建立了一种检测脊髓灰质炎(简称脊灰)IgA抗体的捕捉法ELISA(Aac-ELISA)。方法敏感,快速,特异,用于检测144份脊灰可疑病人的血清,IgA抗体检出率为77.8％(112/144).而这些血清的IgM抗体检出率为65.2％(94/144)。如同时检测IgM和IgA抗体,则阳性率可达91.7％(132/144)。麻痹后1～3天内IgA的检出率为76.5％(13/17),4～7天内为95％(19/20)。最长检出IgA的一例可疑病人,其血清收集于病后第59天。本方法在一部分16天后可疑病人IgM阴性血清中查出IgA阳性,故可以作为查IgM抗体诊断方法的补充,尤其适用于诊断感染后未能及时收到血清标本,IgM已经转阴而IgA抗体仍为阳性的病人。     

尿素解离法降低新型冠状病毒IgM和IgG检测结果假阳性的效果评价

探讨引起新型冠状病毒(SARS-CoV-2)免疫球蛋白M(IgM)和免疫球蛋白G(IgG)抗体检测结果假阳性的干扰因素,改良检测方法,完善实验室检测方案。本研究收集2020年1月2日至2020年3月5日就诊于川北医学院附属医院及南充市中心医院的门诊及住院患者血清样本共74份,其中19例为SARS-CoV-2核酸检测确诊阳性,10例为其他呼吸道病毒IgM抗体阳性,10例肝炎病毒抗体IgM阳性,20例类风湿因子IgM阳性,15例抗核抗体阳性。采用胶体金免疫层析法(试剂A、试剂B)分别对研究对象血清进行SARS-CoV-2 IgM和IgG抗体检测,并对结果为SARS-CoV-2 IgM或SARS-CoV-2 IgG阳性的病例进行分析,发现造成检测结果假阳性的可能因素。再采用合适浓度的尿素对检测为阳性结果的血清及3例SARS-CoV-2 IgM阳性的COVID-19早期患者血清进行解离,解离后分别重新测定SARS-CoV-2 IgM、IgG抗体。采用SPSS19.0统计软件对数据进行统计学分析。结果显示,19例COVID-19确诊患者血清中,试剂A检出SARS-CoV-2 IgM、IgG抗体阳性数为15例及18例,试剂B检出SARS-CoV-2 IgM、IgG抗体阳性数均为12例;20例类风湿因子IgM阳性患者血清中,试剂A检出SARS-CoV-2 IgM、IgG抗体阳性数为16例及14例;15例高滴度ANA阳性患者血清中,试剂B检出4例SARS-CoV-2 IgG抗体阳性。尿素解离浓度为2 mol/L时,试剂A检出的RF-IgM阳性血清中的16例SARS-CoV-2 IgM抗体有14例转阴,14例SARS-CoV-2 IgG抗体有13例转阴,而试剂A在COVID-19确诊患者血清中检出的SARS-CoV-2 IgM、IgG抗体均未出现阴转;尿素解离浓度为4 mol/L时,试剂B检出的ANA阳性血清中的4例SARS-CoV-2 IgG抗体全部转阴,而在COVID-19确诊患者血清中检出的的SARS-CoV-2 IgM、IgG抗体均未出现阴转。另外,经过尿素解离后,试剂A和试剂B在3例COVID-19早期患者血清中检出的SARS-CoV-2 IgM抗体也都未出现阴转。本研究提示,IgM型类风湿因子易造成试剂A检测血清SARS-CoV-2 IgM、IgG结果的假阳性;高滴度的ANA抗体也会引起试剂B检测血清SARS-CoV-2 IgG结果的假阳性。对检测结果假阳性的样本,采取尿素解离方案,能有效降低检测过程中假阳性发生的概率;尿素解离法对COVID-19患者发病早期标本检测灵敏度的影响尚待进一步深入研究。     

肺炎支原体IgG类抗体亲和力检测的实验研究与临床应用

目的探讨肺炎支原体IgG类抗体亲和力检测在肺炎支原体感染诊断中的意义。方法用被动颗粒凝集试验(PPA)和间接免疫荧光法(IFA)检测儿童上呼吸道感染者血清IgM类抗体水平,同时用IFA法检测其IgG类抗体的亲和力,并对检测结果进行相关性分析和一致性检验。结果在IgM类抗体检测上PPA法检出阳性率(60/120)高于IFA法(49/120),两法检测结果缺乏一致性。而IFA法检测IgG类抗体阳性的97例中,有22例检出低亲和力IgG类抗体,其中20例同时检出IgM类抗体,两法检测结果具有显著的相关性(P<0.001)和较好的一致性(0.7>Kappa>0.4)。结论肺炎支原体低亲和力IgG类抗体检测有与IgM类抗体检测类似的早期诊断价值,可与IgM类抗体联合检测用于区分近期感染、感染后复发或再次感染。     

嗜肺军团菌和弯曲杆菌在间接荧光抗体试验中的血清学交叉反应

50名培养证实弯曲杆菌胃肠炎的患者血清中作了嗜肺军团菌抗体检查。间接免疫荧光试验检测有10名患者(20％)出现阳性滴度(≥16)。36份急性期患者血清只有1份检测到抗体,而14份在症状出现10天以上获得的血清中却有10份(71％)有抗体。所有阳性血清均含有特异性IgM抗体而特异性IgG或IgA未能在任何标本中检测到。从42例类似沙门氏菌胃肠炎病人血清中未能检测到军团菌抗体。这些结果显示在嗜肺军团菌和弯曲杆菌之间有血清学交叉反应。     

大学新生戊型肝炎病毒现/近期隐性感染的筛查

为了解大学新生戊型肝炎病毒(HEV)现/近期隐性感染的状况,探讨引起隐性感染与急性戊型肝炎(HE)的HEV毒株间有无差异,本实验利用ELISA一步法检测了正常大学新生血清标本中抗-HEV IgM,对抗-HEV IgM阳性者检测抗-HEV IgG,并进行HEV逆转录-巢式PCR(RT-nPCR). 结果2223份血清中抗-HEV IgM阳性18份,阳性率0.8%,P/N值在2.0~3.0之间.17份标本抗-HEV IgM、IgG同时阳性,1份抗-HEV IgM单独阳性,但用RT-nPCR检测抗-HEV IgM阳性标本, HEV RNA均阴性.提示正常大学新生中存在HEV现/近期隐性感染,应注意感染者作为传染源的可能性;HEV隐性感染时,产生的抗体滴度或亲和力较低,病毒血症时间短,病毒滴度低,或毒株的基因序列与引起急性HE的毒株的序列有一定差异.     

SLE患者血清中SARS-CoV抗体阳性原因分析

为了探讨严重急性呼吸综合征(SARS)冠状病毒(SARS-CoV)抗体测定在系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)患者中的假阳性问题,应用酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)和荧光定量RT-PCR技术检测了66例正常对照和31例SLE患者血清中SARS-CoV抗体的阳性率。结果,66例正常对照中,IgM抗体均阴性,IgG抗体的阳性率为3.0%(2/66);31例SLE患者中,IgM抗体和IgG抗体阳性率分别为29%(9/31)和58.1%(18/31),IgG抗体和IgM抗体同时阳性为22.6%(7/31)。经RTPCR检测,上述阳性病例均为阴性。结论:用非纯化抗原制备的ELISA试剂盒测定SLE患者的SARS-CoV抗体,可能出现假阳性,两种抗体同时测定可降低诊断的假阳性率,提高诊断的特异性。在SLE患者中出现假阳性的原因可能与包被的抗原有关。     

Entwicklungsgeschichte und Ultrastruktur von Pollenkitt und Exine bei nahe verwandten entomophilen und anemophilen Angiospermensippen derAlismataceae,Liliaceae, Juncaceae,Cyperaceae, Poaceae undAraceae

Some closely related members of the monocotyledonous familiesAlismataceae, Liliaceae, Juncaceae, Cyperaceae, Poaceae andAraceae with variable modes of pollination (insect- and wind-pollination) were studied in relation to the ultrastructure of pollenkitt and exine (amount, consistency and distribution of pollenkitt on the surface of pollen grains). The character syndromes of pollen cementing in entomophilous, anemophilous and intermediate (ambophilous or amphiphilous) monocotyledons are the same in principal as in dicotyledons. Comparing present with former results one can summarize: 1) The pollenkitt is always produced in the same manner by the anther tapetum in all angiosperm sub-classes. 2) The variable stickiness of entomophilous and anemophilous pollen always depends on the particular distribution and consistency of the pollenkitt, but not its amount on the pollen surface. 3) The mostly dry and powdery pollen of anemophilous plants always contains a variable amount of inactive pollenkitt in its exine cavities. 4) A step-by step change of the pollen cementing syndrome can be observed from entomophily towards anemophily. 5) From the omnipresence of pollenkitt in all wind-pollinated angiosperms studied one can conclude that the ancestors of anemophilous angiosperms probably have been zoophilous (i.e. entomophilous) throughout.

The IBD virus (IBDV), a nonenveloped virus belonging to the Birnaviridae family with a genome consisting of two segments of double-stranded RNA (segments A and B), targets B lymphocytes of bursa of Fabricious leading to immunosuppression. In Pakistan,poultry farming is the second biggest industry and IBD is the second biggest disease threating the poultry sector.However, there is limited genome information of IBDV     

Mink Circovirus Can Infect Minks,Foxes and Raccoon Dogs

正Dear Editor,Mink circovirus (MiCV), which is clustered in the genus Circovirus of the family Circoviridae, was first described in minks from farms in Dalian, China in 2013 (Lian et al.2014). The complete single-stranded circular genome of the virus is 1,753 nucleotides long and contains two major open reading frames (ORFs), designated ORF1 (Rep gene)and ORF2 (Cap gene)(Lian et al. 2014; Ge et al. 2018).Sequence analysis has shown that MiCV is most closely     

CypA Regulates AIP4-Mediated M1 Ubiquitination of Influenza A Virus

Cyclophilin A (CypA) is a peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase that interacts with the matrix protein (M1) of influenza A virus (IAV) and restricts virus replication by regulating the ubiquitin–proteasome-mediated degradation of M1. However,the mechanism by which CypA regulates M1 ubiquitination remains unknown. In this study, we reported that E3 ubiquitin ligase AIP4 promoted K48-linked ubiquitination of M1 at K102 and K104, and accelerated ubiquitin–proteasome-mediated degradation of M1. The recombinant IAV with mutant M1 (K102 R/K104 R) could not be rescued, suggesting that the ubiquitination of M1 at K102/K104 was essential for IAV replication. Furthermore, CypA inhibited AIP4-mediated M1 ubiquitination by impairing the interaction between AIP4 and M1. More importantly, both the mutations of M1 (K102 R/K104 R) and CypA inhibited the nuclear export of M1, indicating that CypA regulates the cellular localization of M1 via inhibition of AIP4-mediated M1 ubiquitination at K102 and K104, which results in the reduced replication of IAV.Collectively, our findings reveal a novel ubiquitination-based mechanism by which CypA regulates the replication of IAV.
