Herpes Simplex Virus 1 Infection Alters the mRNA Translation Processing in L-02 Cells

HSV-1 infection-mediated regulation of mRNA translation in host cells is a systematic and complicated process. Investigation of the details of this mechanism will facilitate understanding of biological variations in the viral replication process and host cells. In this study, a comparative proteomics technology platform was applied by two-dimension electrophoresis of HSV-1 infected normal human L-02 cell and control cell lysates. The observed protein spots were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively by the PDQuest software package. A number of the different observed protein spots closely associated with cellular protein synthesis were identified by matrix-assisted laser-desorption ionization-time of flight-mass spectrometry （MALDI-TOF-MS）. The expression levels of the RPLP1 protein, which is required for mRNA translation, and KHSRP protein, which is involved in rapid decay of mRNA, were up-regulated, whereas the expression level of RNP H2, which is involved in positive regulation on the mRNA splicing process, was down-regulated. All of these results suggest that HSV-1 infection can influence cellular protein synthesis via modulation of cellular regulatory proteins involved in RNA splicing, translation and decay, resulting in optimisation of viral protein synthesis when cellular protein synthesis is shut off Although there is need for further investigations regarding the detailed mechanisms of cellular protein control, our studies provide new insight into the targeting of varied virus signaling pathways involved in host cellular protein synthesis.     

细胞MEK1/2蛋白及其相关通路在单纯疱疹病毒Ⅱ型（HSV-2）复制中的作用

基于细胞Raf/MEK/ERK信号通路与病毒复制的关系,应用Western印迹检测 p-ERK1/2蛋白的表达、用终点滴定法测定病毒增殖量（TCID_５０）,以及观察感染细胞的细胞病变效应（CPE）等,揭示单纯疱疹病毒Ⅱ型(HSV-2)复制与 ERK通路的关系. 结果表明,HSV-2的复制可引起细胞ERK通路的活化;用U0126预先抑制ERK通路的活化,或用特异性siRNA敲减MEK1/2基因的表达可显著地抑制病毒复制.提示ERK信号通路以及MEK1/2蛋白对HSV-2的复制具有重要的作用.该研究对进一步阐明细胞ERK通路各激酶蛋白在病毒复制中的作用机制、寻找抗病毒作用靶标等奠定了良好的基础.     

PCR在猴B病毒与猴病毒8型鉴别中的应用

目的为了使BV147与SA8相区别,并进一步分析BV147基因结构特点.方法用PCR方法扩增BV147DNA,并对扩增片段进行克隆测序.结果该序列与美国BVE2490株部分基因(UL27)相对应位置的核苷酸同源性为99.54%,与SA8相对应位置的核苷酸同源性为89.91%.结论进一步证明了新分离物为B病毒.     

病毒裂癌:肿瘤生物治疗研究的新热点

病毒只有在特定细胞内借助细胞的翻译机器和能量才能复制,但是很多病毒在复制过程中会造成宿主细胞的病理效应(CPE),包括细胞的肿胀、裂解和死亡,有利于病毒的释放和扩散.根据病毒的这一特性,人们近半个世纪前曾试图"以毒攻毒",即用病毒裂解癌细胞.曾经试过一些病毒,如狂犬病毒、腺病毒、副粘病毒、新城疫病毒和麻疹病毒等[1,2],但由于疗效不好,病毒裂癌治疗一度停滞不前.     

单纯疱疹病毒2型疫苗的研究进展

单纯疱疹病毒2型(herpes simplex virus type 2,HSV-2)是人类疱疹病毒家族中α家族成员,可引起多年龄段的人群生殖器疱疹及其他疱疹疾病。由于该病毒具有复杂的基因结构及感染病理,其感染至今尚无有效的治疗方法。该病毒可抑制机体免疫系统,在神经细胞潜伏感染,具有重激活特性,因此,其疫苗的研制亦需要复杂的技术,且面临重重的挑战。     

单纯疱疹病毒Ⅰ型免疫逃避机制——ICP47抑制抗原加工相关转运蛋白

病毒侵入宿主后的感染过程除导致相应的病理学结果外,还能引发机体非特异性、特异性抗病毒免疫反应清除病原体。在特异性免疫反应中,机体能否对“异已”抗原进行有效识别,在很大程度上是通过抗原呈递细胞实现的。抗原呈递细胞APC(包括树突状细胞DC、巨噬细胞、B细胞等)能捕捉、
