Biological and genetic variability is a prominent feature of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) strains, especially in tropism, syncytium formation, and replicative capacity. To determine whether there were variable host cell effects on HIV replication in monocytes, three different strains of low-passage-number monocytotropic blood isolates of HIV and the laboratory-adapted strain Ba-L were inoculated into panels of adherent monocytes drawn from 44 different donors, and peak extracellular HIV p24 antigen titers were compared. The clinical HIV strains showed patterns of either moderate or low-level replication in most donor monocytes (20 to 4,000 pg/ml). However, within this range there was marked variation in peak titers in most donors. HIV type 1 Ba-L replicated in all donor monocytes to much higher levels with less variability (30 to 40 ng/ml). Furthermore, replication of 21 clinical blood-derived strains of HIV in blood monocytes and monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) from pairs of identical twins and age-matched unrelated donors (URD) of the same sex were compared. In all of the seven pairs of identical twins, the kinetics of replication (measured by extracellular HIV p24 antigen) of panels of four clinical HIV type 1 isolates in monocytes were similar within pairs. However, marked and significant differences in kinetics of HIV production occurred within 10 of the 12 unrelated donor pairs (P = 0.0007). The remaining two URD pairs showed similar kinetic patterns, but only one pair had the same HLA-DR genotype. Similar results were observed with monocytes/MDMs obtained from a second bleed of the same donor. Hence, discordant patterns of HIV replication kinetics between URD monocyte pairs contrasted with concordant patterns in identical twin monocytes. These data strongly suggest a host cell genetic effect on productive viral replication in monocytes and MDMs. So far, no consistent genetic linkage of HIV replication pattern with HLA-DR genotype has been observed. 相似文献

大雾岭保护区穿山甲冬季生境选择 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
1999年12月至2001年2月,对大雾岭自然保护区穿山甲冬季栖息地的选择进行了研究,结果表明对林型选择的先后次序为针阔混交林、灌木丛、常绿阔叶林、针叶林;最偏爱针阔混交林,最不喜爱针叶林.多选择陡坡(30~ 60°);干扰源距离较远(>1 000 m),干扰程度小;林下草灌层盖度高(81% ~ 100%),隐蔽程度好; 阳坡或半阴半阳坡;中低海拔(760 ~ 1 500 m);中下坡位;水源距离较近(<500 m);乔木郁闭度适中(31% ~ 70%)的生境.较少选择上坡位,林下草灌层中低(0 ~ 50%),乔木郁闭度偏高(71%~ 100%)或偏低(0~ 30%),阴坡的生境.对洞口设置的要求是多朝南,而且要求隐蔽条件好,多数为全隐蔽或半隐蔽;最不喜爱将洞口设置在裸露、隐蔽程度差的生境,强力避免洞口向北.坡度、干扰源距离和林下草灌层盖度是影响穿山甲冬季栖息地选择的关键环境因子. 相似文献

AIDS patients often contain HIV-1-infected mast cells (MCs)/basophils in their peripheral blood, and in vivo-differentiated MCs/basophils have been isolated from the blood of asthma patients that are HIV-1 susceptible ex vivo due to their surface expression of CD4 and varied chemokine receptors. Because IL-16 is a ligand for CD4 and/or an undefined CD4-associated protein, the ability of this multifunctional cytokine to regulate the development of human MCs/basophils from nongranulated progenitors residing in cord or peripheral blood was evaluated. After 3 wk of culture in the presence of c-kit ligand, IL-16 induced the progenitors residing in the blood of normal individuals to increase their expression of chymase and tryptase about 20-fold. As assessed immunohistochemically, >80% of these tryptase(+) and/or chymase(+) cells expressed CD4. The resulting cells responded to IL-16 in an in vitro chemotaxis assay, and this biologic response could be blocked by anti-IL-16 and anti-CD4 Abs as well as by a competitive peptide inhibitor corresponding to a sequence in the C-terminal domain of IL-16. The additional finding that IL-16 induces calcium mobilization in the HMC-1 cell line indicates that IL-16 acts directly on MCs and their committed progenitors. IL-16-treated MCs/basophils also are less susceptible to infection by an M/R5-tropic strain of HIV-1. Thus, IL-16 regulates MCs/basophils at a number of levels, including their vulnerability to retroviral infection. 相似文献

Increased kynurenine pathway metabolism has been implicated in the aetiology of the AIDS dementia complex (ADC). The rate limiting enzyme for this pathway is indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO). We tested the efficacy of different strains of HIV-1 (HIV1-BaL, HIV1-JRFL and HIV1-631) to induce IDO in cultured human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM). A significant increase in both IDO protein and kynurenine synthesis was observed after 48 h in MDM infected with the brain derived HIV-1 isolates, laboratory adapted (LA) HIV1-JRFL, and primary isolate HIV1-631. In contrast, almost no kynurenine production or IDO protein was evident in MDM infected with the high replicating macrophage tropic LA strain, HIV1-BaL. The induction of IDO and kynurenine synthesis by HIV1-JRFL and HIV1-631 declined to baseline levels by day-8 post-infection. Together, these results indicate that only selected strains of HIV-1 are capable of inducing IDO synthesis and subsequent oxidative tryptophan catabolism in MDM. 相似文献

The present study describes the size at first sexual maturity, fecundity, length–weight (LWRs) and length–length relationships (LLRs) of the pool barb, Puntius sophore, using data obtained from different geographical locations in Bangladesh. A total of 905 specimens were caught by traditional fishing gear from March 2010 to February 2011. Additionally, a total of 121 females were collected from a commercial catch of the Padma River during June–July 2011 to estimate size at first maturity and to determine fecundity. Total length (TL), fork length (FL) and standard length (SL) were measured with digital slide calipers. Individual body weights (BW) were determined for all specimens, and gonad weights (GW) from 121 females were weighed to an accuracy of 0.001 g. The female gonadosomatic index (GSI) was calculated as [GSI (%) = (GW/BW) × 100]. Female size at first maturity was estimated using GSI and TL as indicators, and estimated as 5.00 cm TL in the Padma River. Specimens larger than 5.00 cm TL were used to determine fecundity. Mean total fecundity was 5300 ± 2700, ranging from 1580 to 16590. A positive exponential correlation was recorded between total fecundity and total length (r2 = 0.421). Relative fecundity ranged from 466 to 4036 (mean 1100 ± 580) in the Padma River. The LWR of pooled data for sexes combined was estimated as BW = 0.0155 TL2.98 as ancova revealed no significant differences in LWRs between rivers (P > 0.05). All LLRs were highly correlated (r2 > 0.983; P < 0.001), and ancova analyses further indicated that LLRs did not differ between rivers (P > 0.05). These results will help in further studies on the population assessment of the species. 相似文献

This study describes the size at first sexual maturity, length–weight relationships (LWR) in relation to size at first sexual maturity, and Fulton’s condition factor (KF) of Eutropiichthys vacha in the Ganges River, northwestern Bangladesh. Sampling was done using traditional fishing gear including cast nets, square lift nets and conical traps during January and April, and July to December 2010. For each individual, total length (TL) was measured to the nearest 0.01 cm, and total weight (BW) was determined to the nearest 0.01 g. The gonadosomatic index (GSI) was calculated by the equation, GSI (%) = (Gonad weight in g/BW) × 100. The size at first sexual maturity of males and females was estimated by the relationship between gonadosomatic index and total length. A total of 583 specimens (289 males; 294 females) ranging from 8.30 to 27.00 cm TL and 3.16 to 159.50 g BW were analyzed. Sizes at first sexual maturity for male and female E. vacha were 13.15 and 14.00 cm TL, respectively. The analysis of covariance (ancova ) revealed significant differences in slope and intercept between early and late phases for males (F = 4.532, P < 0.001) and females (F = 21.984, P < 0.001). The KF was not significantly correlated with TL for males (rs = 0.052; P = 0.378), but was highly correlated for females (rs = ?0.165; P = 0.005). This study establishes a strong base for monitoring changes in length at first sexual maturity attributable to high fishing pressures or other reasons within the Ganges and associated river ecosystems. 相似文献
