从一名国内感染的艾滋病人分离人免疫缺陷病毒

从一名国内感染的艾滋病人采血，分离其外周血单核细胞。首先与正常的ＰＭＣｓ共培养，４周后检测其ＨＩＶ－１ｐ２４抗原达到峰值。用此时的细胞及其上清分别感染Ｊｕｒｋａｔ－ｔａｔ，ＣＥＭ，ＭＴ４细胞，可很快地在这三株细胞中检测到ＨＩＶ生长。ＨＩＶ在Ｊｕｒｋａｔ－ｔａｔ细胞中生长情况最好。同时用病人血清直接感染Ｊｕｒｋａｔ－ｔａｔ和ＭＴ４细胞，４周后检测其细胞上清ＨＩＶ－１Ｐ２４抗原为阳性，但ＯＤ值很低。用

树Ju免疫细胞体外感染Ⅰ型人免疫缺陷病毒的实验研究

至今可以感染Ⅰ型人免疫缺陷病毒（ＨＩＶ－１）的动物只有黑猩猩和长臂猿,这严重阻碍了ＨＩＶ－１的疫苗研究和治疗研究。因此,寻找新的可以感染ＨＩＶ－１的动物模型成为十分迫切的课题。已知树Ｊu对许多重要的医学病毒易感,为了探讨树Ｊu是否可以感染ＨＩＶ－１,利用不同辅助受体的５种ＨＩＶ－１病毒株。体外感染云南野生成年树Ju的淋巴细胞和单核／巨噬细胞;同时还用这些病毒感染人外周血淋巴细胞或单核细胞。然后用ＲＴ－ＰＣＲ、ＰＣＲ和流式细胞术分别进行了检测,用ＲＴ－ＰＣＲ方法未检测到感染上清中有病毒粒子的存在,用ＰＣＲ法未能发现树Ｊu的这些免疫细胞中有前病毒ＤＮＡ,用流式细胞术也未能在这些感染ＨＩＶ－１的树Ｊu细胞的表面检测到特异抗原;而感染ＨＩＶ－１的人免疫细胞均为阳性结果。实验结果表明树Ju的这些免疫细胞在体外未能感染上ＨＩＶ－１,可能的原因是树Ｊu的这些免疫细胞的ＨＩＶ－１受体（ＣＤ４）和辅助受体（ＣＣＲ５或ＣＸＣＲ４）与人的免疫细胞胞差别较大。

Curcuminoids as inhibitors of thioredoxin reductase: A receptor based pharmacophore study with distance mapping of the active site

Curcumin is the yellow pigment of turmeric that interacts irreversibly forming an adduct with thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), an enzyme responsible for redox control of cell and defence against oxidative stress. Docking at both the active sites of TrxR was performed to compare the potency of three naturally occurring curcuminoids, namely curcumin, demethoxy curcumin and bis-demethoxy curcumin. Results show that active sites of TrxR occur at the junction of E and F chains. Volume and area of both cavities is predicted. It has been concluded by distance mapping of the most active conformations that Se atom of catalytic residue SeCYS498, is at a distance of 3.56 from C13 of demethoxy curcumin at the E chain active site, whereas C13 carbon atom forms adduct with Se atom of SeCys 498. We report that at least one methoxy group in curcuminoids is necessary for interation with catalytic residues of thioredoxin. Pharmacophore of both active sites of the TrxR receptor for curcumin and demethoxy curcumin molecules has been drawn and proposed for design and synthesis of most probable potent antiproliferative synthetic drugs.     

A Unique Protease Cleavage Site Predicted in the Spike Protein of the Novel Pneumonia Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Potentially Related to Viral Transmissibility

正Dear Editor,In December 2019, a novel human coronavirus caused an epidemic of severe pneumonia(Coronavirus Disease 2019,COVID-19) in Wuhan, Hubei, China(Wu et al. 2020; Zhu et al. 2020). So far, this virus has spread to all areas of China and even to other countries. The epidemic has caused 67,102 confirmed infections with 1526 fatal cases     

Comparative morphology of the carpel in the Liliaceae: Hewardieae, Petrosavieae, and Tricyrteae

The young pistils in the melanthioid tribes, Hewardieae, Petrosavieae and Tricyrteae, are uniformly tricarpellate and syncarpous. They lack raphide idioblasts. All are multiovulate, with bitegmic ovules. The Petrosavieae are marked by the presence of septal glands and incomplete syncarpy. Tepals and stamens adhere to the ovary in the Hewardieae and the Petrosavieae but not in the Tricyrteae. Two vascular bundles occur in the stamens of the Hewartlieae and Tricyrtis latifolia. Ventral bundles in the upper part of the ovary of the Hewardieae are continuous with compound septal bundles and placental bundles in the lower part. Putative ventral bundles occur in the alternate position in the Tricyrteae and putative placental bundles in the opposite. position in the Petrosavieae. The dichtomously branched stigma in each carpel of the Tricyrteae is supplied by a bifurcated dorsal bundle.

Development of a Novel Reverse Transcription Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Method for Rapid Detection of SARS-CoV-2

In conclusion, the novel visual RT-LAMP assay is a simple, rapid, and sensitive approach for detection of SARS-CoV-2, and it is ready for application in primary care and community hospitals or health care centers, and even patients' own houses in response to the current SARS-CoV-2 epidemic because the assay does not require sophisticated equipment and skilled personnel. Furthermore, it is also ready to be used in fields for screening samples from wild animals and environments to facilitate the identification of potential intermediate hosts that mediate the cross-species transmission of SARS-CoV-2 from bats to humans.     

Perinatal Vertical Transmission of Chikungunya Virus in Ruili,a Town on the Border between China and Myanmar

正Dear Editor,Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), an arbovirus in the family of Togaviridae, genus Alphavirus, is transmitted by the A.aegyptii or A. albopictus mosquito, and causes disease in humans characterized by fever, rash, and arthralgia (Silva and Dermody 2017; Suhrbier 2019). It was first reported in 1953 in Tanzania, and caused only a few outbreaks and sporadic cases in Africa and Asia in last century. However, in the epidemic in 2004, CHIKV acquired mutations that conferred enhanced transmission by the A. albopictus mosquito(Schuffenecker et al. 2006). Since then, it has successively caused outbreaks in Africa, the Indian Ocean, South East Asia, the South America, and Europe (Zeller et al. 2016).
