不同样本前处理方法对高通量测序检测HBV、HCV、TTV结果的影响

目的:探索不同样品前处理方法对于不同类型病毒检测的效果。方法:分别将携带乙肝病毒(双链环状DNA病毒)、丙肝病毒(单正链RNA病毒)、TTV(Torque teno virus)(单链环状DNA病毒)的血清等比例混合,模拟混合感染,然后分别采用多重置换扩增(MDA)和随机锚定PCR扩增并进行高通量测序,同时以原始样品(未扩增)直接高通量测序作为对照。结果:原始样品(未扩增)直接测序,产出的数据大部分为人类的序列;MDA方法中绝大部分数据为TTV、乙肝病毒;随机锚定PCR扩增方法中绝大部分数据为乙肝病毒。结论:MDA方法适合扩增环状病毒,随机锚定PCR扩增适合含量高的病毒,不做任何处理直接高通量测序检测病毒效果最差。本研究可为指导不同类型病原体如何选择扩增方案提供借鉴。     

基于多重置换扩增技术的RNA病毒基因组扩增方法研究

为了便于新发或罕见病毒性传染病的筛查检测,本研究利用多重置换扩增技术,以负链RNA病毒—发热伴血小板减少综合征病毒和正链RNA病毒—登革病毒为模拟样本探索临床样本中RNA病毒基因组非特异性扩增方法。研究中通过梯度稀释的RNA病毒模拟样本中可能存在的不同丰度的病原体,样本核酸依次加工成单链cDNA、双链cDNA、T4DNA连接酶处理后的双链cDNA以及添加外源辅助RNA后合成并连接的双链cDNA形式,然后进行Phi29DNA聚合酶等温扩增,使用荧光定量PCR方法比较各种方法对RNA病毒核酸扩增的影响。结果显示,对于不同类型的RNA病毒模拟标本,多重置换扩增对于单链及双链cDNA的扩增效果有限,而双链cDNA经DNA连接酶处理后的扩增能达到6×103倍;在cDNA合成过程中加入外源辅助RNA,模拟样本中病毒基因组的扩增可达2×105倍,尤其是对含有低丰度病原体的模拟样本扩增效果的改善更为明显。本研究摸索建立了基于多重置换扩增技术的RNA病毒基因组扩增方法,能够对样本中低丰度RNA病毒基因组实现有效扩增,可满足开展多种病原体筛查检测的需求。     

随机聚合酶链反应检测未知病毒方法学的建立

目的 探索并建立一种用于快速检测未知病毒的分子生物学方法。 方法 分别以乙型肝炎病毒（hepatitis B virus, HBV）、丙型肝炎病毒（hepatitis C virus, HCV）为假定的未知DNA、RNA病毒,验证随机聚合酶链反应（polymerase chain reaction, PCR）检测未知病毒的可行性。分离HBV、HCV的阳性血清,去除宿主DNA后,提取病毒核酸。锚定随机引物经Klenow酶处理（模板为DNA）或反转录酶作用（模板为RNA）退火至模板,随后用锚定特异引物对模板进行非特异性扩增。扩增产物经纯化后克隆、测序,最后与BLAST进行比对。结果 经BLAST比对证实,插入序列中有HBV和HCV的基因组片段,在病毒拷贝数为1&;#61620;106拷贝/ml时,被检测克隆的阳性率约为15%。目前我们利用本法能达到的检测低限大致为1&;#61620;104拷贝/ml。 结论 成功建立了一种基于随机PCR的未知病毒检测方法,其优点在于不依赖病毒的细胞培养及其核酸序列信息。此种方法的建立为快速诊断不明原因疾病和新发传染病病原体提供了新的思路。

On the origin of the Hirudinea and the demise of the Oligochaeta

The phylogenetic relationships of the Clitellata were investigated with a data set of published and new complete 18S rRNA gene sequences of 51 species representing 41 families. Sequences were aligned on the basis of a secondary structure model and analysed with maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood. In contrast to the latter method, parsimony did not recover the monophyly of Clitellata. However, a close scrutiny of the data suggested a spurious attraction between some polychaetes and clitellates. As a rule, molecular trees are closely aligned with morphology-based phylogenies. Acanthobdellida and Euhirudinea were reconciled in their traditional Hirudinea clade and were included in the Oligochaeta with the Branchiobdellida via the Lumbriculidae as a possible link between the two assemblages. While the 18S gene yielded a meaningful historical signal for determining relationships within clitellates, the exact position of Hirudinea and Branchiobdellida within oligochaetes remained unresolved. The lack of phylogenetic signal is interpreted as evidence for a rapid radiation of these taxa. The placement of Clitellata within the Polychaeta remained unresolved. The biological reality of polytomies within annelids is suggested and supports the hypothesis of an extremely ancient radiation of polychaetes and emergence of clitellates.     

On the ontogeny of the haptor and the evolution of the Monogenea

Data on the ontogeny of the posterior haptor of monogeneans were obtained from more than 150 publications and summarised. These data were plotted into diagrams showing evolutionary capacity levels based on the theory of a progressive evolution of marginal hooks, anchors and other attachment components of the posterior haptor in the Monogenea (Malmberg, 1986). 5 + 5 unhinged marginal hooks are assumed to be the most primitive monogenean haptoral condition. Thus the diagrams were founded on a 5 + 5 unhinged marginal hook evolutionary capacity level, and the evolutionary capacity levels of anchors and other haptoral attachement components were arranged according to haptoral ontogenetical sequences. In the final plotting diagram data on hosts, type of spermatozoa, oncomiracidial ciliation, sensilla pattern and protonephridial systems were also included. In this way a number of correlations were revealed. Thus, for example, the number of 5 + 5 marginal hooks correlates with the most primitive monogenean type of spermatozoon and with few sensillae, many ciliated cells and a simple protonephridial system in the oncomiracidium. On the basis of the reviewed data it is concluded that the ancient monogeneans with 5 + 5 unhinged marginal hooks were divided into two main lines, one retaining unhinged marginal hooks and the other evolving hinged marginal hooks. Both main lines have recent representatives at different marginal hook evolutionary capacity levels, i.e. monogeneans retaining a haptor with only marginal hooks. For the main line with hinged marginal hooks the name Articulon-choinea n. subclass is proposed. Members with 8 + 8 hinged marginal hooks only are here called Proanchorea n. superord. Monogeneans with unhinged marginal hooks only are here called Ananchorea n. superord. and three new families are erected for its recent members: Anonchohapteridae n. fam., Acolpentronidae n. fam. and Anacanthoridae n. fam. (with 7 + 7, 8 + 8 and 9 + 9 unhinged marginal hooks, respectively). Except for the families of Articulonchoinea (e.g. Acanthocotylidae, Gyrodactylidae, Tetraonchoididae) Bychowsky's (1957) division of the Monogenea into the Oligonchoinea and Polyonchoinea fits the proposed scheme, i.e. monogeneans with unhinged marginal hooks form one old group, the Oligonchoinea, which have 5 + 5 unhinged marginal hooks, and the other group form the Polyonchoinea, which (with the exception of the Hexabothriidae) has a greater number (7 + 7, 8 + 8 or 9 + 9) of unhinged marginal hooks. It is proposed that both these names, Oligonchoinea (sensu mihi) and Polyonchoinea (sensu mihi), will be retained on one side and Articulonchoinea placed on the other side, which reflects the early monogenean evolution. Except for the members of Ananchorea [Polyonchoinea], all members of the Oligonchoinea and Polyonchoinea have anchors, which imply that they are further evolved, i.e. have passed the 5 + 5 marginal hook evolutionary capacity level (Malmberg, 1986). There are two main types of anchors in the Monogenea: haptoral anchors, with anlages appearing in the haptor, and peduncular anchors, with anlages in the peduncle. There are two types of haptoral anchors: peripheral haptoral anchors, ontogenetically the oldest, and central haptoral anchors. Peduncular anchors, in turn, are ontogenetically younger than peripheral haptoral anchors. There may be two pairs of peduncular anchors: medial peduncular anchors, ontogentically the oldest, and lateral peduncular anchors. Only peduncular (not haptoral) anchors have anchor bars. Monogeneans with haptoral anchors are here called Mediohaptanchorea n. superord. and Laterohaptanchorea n. superord. or haptanchoreans. All oligonchoineans and the oldest polyonchoineans are haptanchoreans. Certain members of Calceostomatidae [Polyonchoinea] are the only monogeneans with both (peripheral) haptoral and peduncular anchors (one pair). These monogeneans are here called Mixanchorea n. superord. Polyonchoineans with peduncular anchors and unhinged marginal hooks are here called the Pedunculanchorea n. superord. The most primitive pedunculanchoreans have only one pair of peduncular anchors with an anchor bar, while the most advanced have both medial and lateral peduncular anchors; each pair having an anchor bar. Certain families of the Articulonchoinea, the Anchorea n. superord., also have peduncular anchors (parallel evolution): only one family, the Sundanonchidae n. fam., has both medial and lateral peduncular anchors, each anchor pair with an anchor bar. Evolutionary lines from different monogenean evolutionary capacity levels are discussed and a new system of classification for the Monogenea is proposed.In agreeing to publish this article, I recognise that its contents are controversial and contrary to generally accepted views on monogenean systematics and evolution. I have anticipated a reaction to the article by inviting senior workers in the field to comment upon it: their views will be reported in a future issue of this journal.
