2009年全国其他感染性腹泻报告病例分析

目的了解我国2009年其他感染性腹泻的流行特点和病原学信息,提出改善建议,为更好的控制其他感染性腹泻病的流行提供数据支持。方法收集中国疾病控制信息系统"疾病监测信息报告管理系统"中2009年其他感染性腹泻的病例报告,对其流行病学及病原学信息进行描述性统计分析。结果 2009年全国共报告655 965例其他感染性腹泻病例,其中≤5岁儿童分别占报告总病例的50.38%和死亡病例的70.0%。实验室确诊病例占报告病例数的5.04%,其中病毒性感染占92.79%,细菌性感染占6.92%。结论≤5岁的散居儿童应为其他感染性腹泻的重点监测人群。其他感染性腹泻报告病例中约有95%为临床诊断病例。我国其他感染性腹泻的病原学诊断率及病原学诊断结果的报告率亟待提高。     

植物气味化合物与斜纹夜蛾性信息素的协同作用

为提高现有性信息素对雄蛾的引诱活性, 本研究通过大量的田间试验探索植物气味化合物与斜纹夜蛾Spodoptera litura性信息素（顺9, 反11-十四碳二烯乙酸酯∶顺9, 反12-十四碳二烯乙酸酯=10∶1）的协同作用机制。从斜纹夜蛾寄主植物和花的气味化合物中, 选择9种有代表性的化合物, 并以一定剂量分别加入到斜纹夜蛾性信息素诱芯中, 在田间测试对雄蛾的引诱活性。结果表明: 在测试的9种植源性化合物中, 发现一定剂量(每个诱芯加入0.4 mg)的苯乙醛(PAA), 具有显著提高斜纹夜蛾性信息素的引诱作用, 而高剂量的苯乙醛则强烈抑制性信息素的引诱活性; 此外, 其他各种浓度的测试化合物或混合物对性信息素则没有统计上显著的增效作用。不同剂量的苯乙醛单个化合物及各种植物气味化合物组成的混合物对斜纹夜蛾也有微弱的引诱作用。苯乙醛必须要与性信息素的完整组分(以10∶1比例混合的顺9, 反11-十四碳二烯乙酸酯和顺9反, 12-十四碳二烯乙酸酯)混合才能起作用, 缺少顺9, 反12-十四碳二烯乙酸酯则没有引诱活性。本研究证明, 苯乙醛作为理想的性信息素诱芯增效剂, 可应用于建立更理想的斜纹夜蛾性信息素诱杀技术, 对性诱害虫防治和测报具有应用价值。     

Metabolic profiling of in vitro micropropagated and conventionally greenhouse grown ginger (Zingiber officinale)

Ginger is an important medicinal and culinary herb, known worldwide for its health promoting properties. Because ginger does not reproduce by seed, but is clonally propagated via rhizome division and replanting, it is susceptible to accumulation and transmittance of pathogens from generation to generation. In addition, such propagation techniques lead to slow multiplication of particularly useful stocks. We have developed an in vitro propagation method to alleviate these problems. Metabolic profiling, using GC/MS and LC-ESI-MS, was used to determine if chemical differences existed between greenhouse grown or in vitro micropropagation derived plants. Three different ginger lines were analyzed. The constituent gingerols and gingerol-related compounds, other diarylheptanoids, and methyl ether derivatives of these compounds, as well as major mono- and sesquiterpenoids were identified. Principal component analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis revealed chemical differences between lines (yellow ginger vs. white ginger and blue ring ginger) and tissues (rhizome, root, leaf and shoot). However, this analysis indicated that no significant differences existed between growth treatments (conventional greenhouse grown vs. in vitro propagation derived plants). Further statistical analyses (ANOVA) confirmed these results. These findings suggest that the biochemical mechanisms used to produce the large array of compounds found in ginger are not affected by in vitro propagation.     

Estimation of Cellobiohydrolase I Activity by Numerical Differentiation of Dynamic Ultraviolet Spectroscopy

1,4-β-D-glucan cellobiohydrolase I (CBH I),p-nitrophenyl β-D-cellobioside,p-nitrophenol andcellobiose show distinct ultraviolet spectra,allowing the design of an assay to track the dynamic process ofp-nitrophenyl β-D-cellobioside hydrolysis by CBH I.Based on the linear relationship between p-nitrophenolformation in the hydrolysate and its first derivative absorption Curve of AUC340_400_(nm)(area under the curve),a new sensitive assay for the determination of CBH I activity was developed.The dynamic parameters ofcatalysis reaction,such as Vm and k_(cat),can all be derived from this result.The influence of β-glucosidase andendoglucanase in crude enzyme sample on the assay was discussed in detail.This approach is useful foraccurate determination of the activity of CBHs.     

氮沉降背景下土壤微生物对入侵植物乌桕叶绿素荧光特征的影响

植物入侵会造成入侵地生态系统功能和稳定性的破坏。与原产地种源相比,入侵种源植物在生理学特性方面有所不同,使其在资源利用和抵抗环境胁迫具有较强的竞争优势。叶绿素荧光特性与植物光合作用效率密切相关,对植物生长具有重要作用。氮沉降加剧是全球变化的一个重要因子,土壤微生物对植物吸收利用土壤养分至关重要。通过施用细菌抑制剂（链霉素）和真菌抑制剂（扑海因）选择性抑制的土壤微生物活性,开展乌桕盆栽实验,在模拟氮沉降背景下,研究不同微生物群落如何影响入侵乌桕叶绿素荧光特性,有助于理解入侵植物的进化特征和入侵机制,为有效防控入侵植物并降低其对生态系统危害提供理论依据。以原产地地和入侵地两个种源乌桕（Triadica sebifera）为研究对象,在氮沉降条件下,通过调控土壤细菌和真菌,探讨两个种源乌桕叶绿素荧光参数差异。结果显示：氮沉降显著增加乌桕相对叶绿素含量（SPAD）、光系统II的最大量子产率（F_v/F_m）、非光化学猝灭（NPQ）和半饱和光强（I_k）。入侵种源乌桕比原产地具有较低SPAD。氮沉降与细菌抑制剂共同作用显著增强了F_v/F_m、NPQ和I_k,显著减弱了光能利用率（α）和SPAD。细菌抑制剂减缓了本地种源乌桕α,真菌抑制剂促进本地种源乌桕I_k,抑制入侵种源乌桕I_k,细菌和真菌抑制剂可显著降低原产地乌桕α。氮沉降与生物抑制剂可显著作用于乌桕叶片SPAD。氮沉降、土壤微生物和不同乌桕种源可共同作用于光系统Ⅱ实际光合量子产率Y（Ⅱ）,α和潜在最大相对电子传递速率（ETR_max）。因此,氮沉降与生物抑制剂对乌桕叶绿素荧光特性具有协同作用,入侵种源乌桕对土壤微生物控制的响应不明显,在微生物控制条件下依然具有较强的适应能力,因而具有较强的入侵能力。     

Preparation and Efficacy of Newcastle Disease Virus DNA Vaccine Encapsulated in PLGA Nanoparticles

Background

Although the Newcastle disease virus (NDV) inactivated vaccines and attenuated live vaccines have been used to prevent and control Newcastle disease (ND) for years, there are some disadvantages. Recently, newly developed DNA vaccines have the potential to overcome these disadvantages. The low delivery efficiency, however, hindered the application of DNA vaccines for ND in practice.

Methodology/Principal Findings

The eukaryotic expression plasmid pVAX1-F (o) DNA that expressed the F gene of NDV encapsulated in PLGA nanoparticles (pFNDV-PLGA-NPs) were prepared by a double emulsion-solvent evaporation method and optimal preparation conditions of the pFNDV-PLGA-NPs were determined. Under the optimal conditions, the pFNDV-PLGA-NPs were produced in good morphology and had high stability with a mean diameter of 433.5±7.5 nm, with encapsulation efficiency of 91.8±0.3% and a Zeta potential of +2.7 mV. Release assay in vitro showed that the fusion gene plasmid DNA could be sustainably released from the pFNDV-PLGA-NPs up to 93.14% of the total amount. Cell transfection test indicated that the vaccine expressed and maintained its bioactivity. Immunization results showed that better immune responses of SPF chickens immunized with the pFNDV-PLGA-NPs were induced compared to the chickens immunized with the DNA vaccine alone. In addition, the safety of mucosal immunity delivery system of the pFNDV-PLGA-NPs was also tested in an in vitro cytotoxicity assay.

Conclusions/Significance

The pFNDV-PLGA-NPs could induce stronger cellular, humoral, and mucosal immune responses and reached the sustained release effect. These results laid a foundation for further development of vaccines and drugs in PLGA nanoparticles.
