猪卵透明带单克隆抗体的研制

用热溶猪卵透明带抗原免疫BALB/C 小鼠,取其脾细胞和SP2/O 细胞融合产生的杂交瘤。用间接免疫荧光和ELISA 方法筛选,经四次克隆化后,获得三株分泌猪卵透明带单克隆抗体杂交瘤细胞株(LPD_8,LPC_4,LPD_2)。通过间接免疫荧光试验,其中二株单克隆抗体(LPD_8,LPC_4)与人卵透明带有交叉反应。但它们在猪与人卵透明带上呈现的荧光部位有明显的不同,LPD_8位于整个透明带上,而LPC_4只见于透明带外层。LPD_2荧光位于透明带内层且与人卵无交叉反应。我们认为这种差别是由于抗原决定簇的不同所致。     

二氧化硅活化巨噬细胞中早期生长反应因子-1及其信号转导通路的研究

目的 探讨早期生长反应因子(Egr-1)及其信号转导在矽肺发生发展中的作用。方法用细胞免疫荧光、原位杂交方法检测二氧化硅(SiO2)刺激后Egr-1的表达定位,用报道质粒及EMSA检测其活性改变;用激酶活性分析法检测si0：刺激巨噬细胞后ERK1／2活性改变,进一步用激酶抑制剂初步探讨SiO2活化Egr-1的信号转导通路。结果SiO2刺激RAW264．7细胞短时间Egr-1核蛋白表达及转录因子明显增加;且在处理后30～60min,Egr-1核蛋白结合活性明显升高(为未处理组的20倍);在刺激后15min ERK1／2活性开始升高,30min达高峰(活性为对照组的29倍)而后渐降至基础水平;进一步用激酶阻断发现,Egr-1 mRNA及蛋白表达均减少。结论SiO2能激活巨噬细胞中Egr-1,且此过程可能由ERK1／2、p38介导,提示SiO2-ERK1／2、p38-Egr-1通路可能在矽肺发生发展过程中起重要作用。     

Thymocyte and peripheral blood T lymphocyte subpopulation changes in piglets following in utero infection with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus

Piglets infected in utero with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) are born severely immunocompromised. In this article we more closely examine the effects of in utero PRRSV infection on circulating and thymic T cell populations. Numbers of CD4+, CD8+, and dual-positive lymphocytes were quantitated in circulation and in the thymus during the 2 weeks following birth. At birth we found that the number of circulating lymphocytes was suppressed by 60%. Lymphocyte numbers were also suppressed by 42% at day 7, but by day 14 the number of lymphocytes had rebounded and was actually 47% greater than controls. At birth and day 7, a drop in the number of CD4+ cells could partially explain the suppression we observed, while the rebound in total lymphocyte numbers seen at day 14 was due to a nearly fourfold increase in the number of circulating CD8+ cells. As a result, the normal CD4+:CD8+ ratio of between 1.4 and 2.2 for neonatal pigs was reduced to 0.1-0.5. The thymuses of infected piglets were found to be 50% smaller than those of control pigs and were characterized by cortical involution and severe cortical depletion of thymocytes. Analysis of the population of thymocytes revealed that double-positive thymocytes were suppressed to a greater degree than either single positive subpopulation. In addition, we show that the number of thymocytes undergoing apoptosis was increased twofold in piglets infected with PRRSV. Taken together, these results help explain the dramatic immunosuppression observed in neonatal animals infected in utero with PRRSV.

Characterization of the UL4 gene product of herpes simplex virus type 2

Summary.  We have identified the herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) UL4 gene product using a rabbit polyclonal antiserum raised against a recombinant 6xHis-UL4 fusion protein expressed in Escherichia coli. The antiserum reacted specifically with a 27-kDa protein in HSV-2 186-infected cell lysates. The protein was not detectable in the presence of the viral DNA synthesis inhibitor, suggesting that the UL4 gene was expressed as a γ₂ gene. Indirect immunofluorescence studies localized the UL4 protein within the nucleus as discrete punctate forms at late times postinfection. However, when expressed in the absence of other viral proteins, the UL4 protein was limited to the cytoplasm, indicating that an interaction with one or more other virus-induced proteins was responsible for the nuclear localization during infection. Subnuclear fractionation studies showed that the protein was released from the nuclear structure of infected cells by high salt treatment. Moreover, the UL4 protein was detected in purified virions and light particles. Received December 24, 1997 Accepted February 4, 1998
