为了解河北省石家庄市健康儿童中肠道病毒带毒情况及血清型构成,对2010~2012年石家庄市的3个县区1 223例0~6岁的健康儿童及406名监护人(健康成人)采集咽拭子和粪便标本进行核酸检测鉴定肠道病毒血清型,并进行分子流行病学分析,为肠道病毒感染相关疾病的防控和治疗提供基础资料。1 223名健康儿童的标本检测结果中,肠道病毒(Enterovirus,EV)阳性的283例,阳性率为23.14%(283/1 223)。其中,以非肠道病毒71型非柯萨奇病毒A组16型的EV(Other-Enterovirus,other-EVs)阳性为主,占EV阳性的62%(175/283),而引起手足口病常见的EV病原体肠道病毒71型(Enterovirus A71,EV71)和柯萨奇病毒A组16型(Coxsackievirus A16,CVA16)阳性率较低,分别占19%(55/283)和18%(51/283);将结果为other-EVs阳性的175名健康儿童的标本全部进行病毒分离鉴定,共分离到25株病毒,分离率为14.29%(25/175),其中柯萨奇病毒B组5型(Coxsackievirus B5,CVB5)分离率最高,为40%(10/25)、柯萨奇病毒B组13型(Coxsackievirus B3,CVB3)分离率为24%(6/25)、埃可病毒21型(Enteric cytopathic human orphan virus 21,ECHO21)分离率为16%(4/25)、其他EV株分离率为20%(5/25)。提示,应加强对CVB3和CVB5等other-EVs的监测。     

2008～2009年青岛地区手足口病病原学的调查分析

本研究对2008～2009年青岛地区手足口病的病原学进行调查研究。首先对HFMD病例的咽拭子标本直接进行病毒核酸的提取,然后采用多重荧光逆转录-聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)方法对总肠道病毒(Enterovirus,EV)、肠道病毒71型(Enterovirus Type 71,EV71)和柯萨奇病毒A组16型(Coxsackievirus Group A 16,CVA16)进行检测,对EV阳性而EV71和CVA16均阴性的标本采用半巢式反转录PCR进行肠道病毒VP1基因部分序列的扩增和序列分析以鉴定其血清型别。结果提示2008～2009年青岛地区手足口病的主要病原为EV71和CVA16,无论轻症和重症病例,EV71的比例都大于CVA16。2008年共获得5个(8株)其它血清型,分别是柯萨奇病毒(Cox-sackievirus,CV)的A5、A6、A10、A12及埃可病毒9(Echovirus 9,E9),血清型分布比较分散、均匀。2009年共获得3个其它血清型(13株),分别是CVA9、CVA12及CVB2,CVA12所占比例较大(11/13),分布比较集中。CVA12成为2009年青岛地区HFMD病原中除EV71和CVA16外,新的较为流行的病原。     

EV71的受体研究进展

手足口病(Hand-foot-mouth disease,HFMD)是一种临床表现为手、足、口腔等部位的疱疹及中枢神经系统并发症的婴幼儿疾病,其病原体以柯萨奇病毒A16型(Coxsackievirus A16,CoxA16)和人肠道病毒71型(Human enterovirus 71,EV71)最为常见。2008年中国卫生部将HFMD列入丙类传染病目录。近年来,引起手足口病的主要病原体为     

2009年上海市手足口病流行病学和病原学特征

本研究对上海市手足口病(Hand-foot-and-mouth disease,HFMD)的流行病学和病原学特征进行了分析。从国家疾病监测信息报告管理系统获取上海市2009年HFMD的流行病学数据;采用荧光定量RT-PCR方法对来自上海15个区县的799例HFMD进行肠道病毒(Enterovirus,EV)核酸检测;对部分肠道病毒71型(Enterovirus71,EV71)的VP1区和部分其它EV的VP4区序列进行测定和分析。采用Office excel软件进行简单数据统计分析,用BioEdit和MEGA软件进行病毒基因特征分析,通过BLAST服务器的在线比对进行EV型别鉴定。分析显示:上海市18个区县均有病例报告,地区分布无显著特点;小于6岁的婴幼儿期为疾病高发年龄段;4～7月为发病高峰期;EV71和柯萨奇病毒A16(Coxsackie virus A16,CA16)为主要病原,不同地区、不同月份的病原构成各不相同,CA16为轻症病例的主要病原,EV71则为重症病例的主要病原;基于VP1区序列分析,上海EV71毒株与C4a亚型毒株具有最近的亲缘性和最高的同源性;2株其它肠道病毒经鉴定属于CA2和CA10型。结果表明:EV71和CA16为2009年上海HFMD流行的主要病原,EV71属于C4a亚型;除EV71和CA16外,还存在小部分其它EV(如:CA2和CA10)引起的HFMD。     

肠道病毒71型分子流行病学研究进展

肠道病毒71型(Enterovirus type 71,EV71),自1974年首次报道以来,在世界范围内引起多次爆发与流行。EV71感染主要引起患者手足口病(hand,foot and mouth disease,HFMD),在临床上与柯萨奇病毒A16(Coxsakie A16,CA16)感染所引起的手足口病难以区别,但EV71还能够引起多种与神经系统相关的疾病。近年来,EV71病毒的流

EV71和CA16研究进展综述

手足口病(hand-foot and mouth disease,HFMD)是一种全球性的传染病,其主要病原体为肠道病毒71型(enterovirus 71,EV71)和柯萨奇病毒A组16型(cosackievirus A 16,CA16)。EV71与CA16同属于小核糖核酸(ribonucleic acid,RNA)病毒科(Picornaviridae)肠道病毒属(Enterovirus)肠道病毒A型(Human enterovirus A)的成员,两者在病原学、感染和复制特征以及感染导致的临床症状和免疫反应有相似的方面,但也有明显不同的方面。现将对EV71和CA16相关的病原学、感染和复制特征以及临床症状和免疫反应研究进行综述。     

肠道病毒71型分子流行病学研究进展

肠道病毒71型(Enterovirus type71,EV71),自1974年首次报道以来,在世界范围内引起多次爆发与流行[1].EV71感染主要引起患者手足口病(hand,foot and mouth disease,HFMD),在临床上与柯萨奇病毒A16(Coxsakie A16,CA16)感染所引起的手足口病难以区别,但EV71还能够引起多种与神经系统相关的疾病[2].近年来,EV71病毒的流行在亚太地区呈上升趋势[3～5],其中最令人关注的是在该地区的EV71感染引起越来越严重的中枢神经系统症状.     

Exercise, dobutamine, and combined atropine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine compared

We compared the cardiovascular effects evoked in conscious dogs by 1) submaximal exercise; 2) infusion of dobutamine (40 micrograms X kg-1 X min-1); and 3) infusion of a combination of atropine (0.15 mg/kg), norepinephrine (0.19 micrograms X kg-1 X min-1), and epinephrine (0.05 micrograms X kg-1 X min-1). Myocardial O2 demand, as estimated by the double product (heart rate X systolic blood pressure), was similar during all three interventions. Cardiac output and heart rate increased significantly (P less than 0.05) during each of the three interventions. Arteriovenous O2 difference and total body O2 consumption, however, increased only during submaximal exercise. Although myocardial blood flow increased similarly during each of the three interventions, blood flow to skeletal muscle and the tongue increased only during exercise. Exercise and the combined infusion of atropine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine produced similar increases in blood flow to the diaphragm and similar decreases in blood flow to the stomach. These changes in blood flow were associated with appropriate changes in vascular resistance. Additionally, blood flow to the brain, kidney, adrenal glands, liver, and intestine did not change during any of the three interventions. Thus, in dogs, submaximal exercise, infusion of dobutamine, and infusion of a combination of atropine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine to evoke a given level of estimated myocardial O2 consumption produce similar increases in cardiac output, heart rate, and myocardial blood flow. In contrast, the changes in total body O2 consumption, arteriovenous O2 difference, regional blood flow, and regional vascular resistance that occur during each of these three interventions are different.     

Definitions,measurements, and classifications of stimuli,situations, and environments

A review is presented of issues relevant to the definition, measurement, and classification of stimuli, situations, and environments. Problems such as the lack of adequate definitions of concepts, error and bias in measurement procedures, confusion between measurement of a concept and measurement of its behavioral effects, and the lack of agreement among alternative measures are emphasized. It is suggested that concepts be defined in terms of objective characteristics while allowing for the study of the transactional relationship between organism and environment. The work of the ethologists in defining stimuli while studying their relationship to different organismic states and situational contexts is emphasized in this regard. Following Brunswik, it is also suggested that wherever possible there be a representative sampling of variables in natural settings. Note from the editors: From time to time, Human Ecology will publish a review article. Our first in this series is a review by a psychologist of basic definitional and conceptual problems in environmental studies.This paper was prepared while the author was a Visiting Research Fellow at the Educational Testing Service. The support of ETS and my colleagues in the Division of Psychological Studies is gratefully acknowledged. The review was also supported in part by a grant from the Rutgers University Research Council.

Synthesis,tautomerism, and antimicrobial,anti-HCV,anti-SSPE,antioxidant, and antitumor activities of arylazobenzosuberones

2-Dimethylaminomethylene-1-benzosuberone 1 was coupled with diazotized aniline derivatives to afford a series of the hitherto unreported 2-arylazo-1-benzosuberones 3a–i. The tautomeric structure and the effect of substituents on the tautomeric form (s) of the products 3a–i were discussed. Similar coupling of the enaminone 1 with diazonium salts of heterocyclic amines gave the respective fused azolotriazino-benzosuberones. Some of the newly synthesized compounds showed potent antimicrobial, anti-HCV, antioxidant, antitumor (as topoisomerase I inhibitors), and antimicrobial activities.     

Lipid,lipoprotein, and apolipoprotein models: past,present, and future

Mones Berman's untimely death on 12 August 1982 put an end to his work in the development of theoretical biology. Arguments are examined, and it is concluded that a formal theory of lipoprotein metabolism flourished and expanded under the guidance of Dr. Berman. Not many scientists in the field of biology spend a major portion of their energies on theoretical work xxx was outstanding because of his early decision to follow the theoretical path.     

Pericytes: developmental, physiological, and pathological perspectives, problems, and promises

Pericytes, the mural cells of blood microvessels, have recently come into focus as regulators of vascular morphogenesis and function during development, cardiovascular homeostasis, and disease. Pericytes are implicated in the development of diabetic retinopathy and tissue fibrosis, and they are potential stromal targets for cancer therapy. Some pericytes are probably mesenchymal stem or progenitor cells, which give rise to adipocytes, cartilage, bone, and muscle. However, there is still confusion about the identity, ontogeny, and progeny of pericytes. Here, we review the history of these investigations, indicate emerging concepts, and point out problems and promise in the field of pericyte biology.
