HIV-1 B''亚型R5或R5/X4嗜性毒株在GHOST细胞的感染性分析

目的分析我国HIV-1B′亚型R5或R5／X4嗜性毒株在GHOST细胞的感染性。方法采用传统的共培养方法从HIV-1感染者PBMC中分离并培养病毒，用表达CD4和趋化因子受体CCR5或CXCR4的GHOST细胞系，测定毒株的辅助受体利用情况，使用相同病毒量即2mg的HIV-1 p24分别感染表达不同受体的GHOST细胞系，通过流式细胞仪检测分析绿色荧光蛋白（GFP）的表达反映病毒感染细胞的能力。结果35例B′亚型毒株利用CCR5受体，占22例（62．85％），双嗜性即CCR5／CXCR4均阳性占13例（37．15％）。GHOST-R5／X4细胞的感染性分析结果显示，R5／X4双嗜性毒株的感染性明显高于CD4〉200／μl的R5毒株的感染性（P〈0．05）；R5／X4毒株与CD4≤200／μl的R5毒株感染性比较差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）；CD4〉200／μl的R5毒株与CD4≤200／μl的R5毒株感染性比较差异有统计学意义（P〈0．05）；GHOST-CCR5细胞感染性分析结果显示：R5／X4双嗜性毒株的感染性明显下降，与CD4〉200／μl的R5毒株的感染性比较差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）。利用相同剂量的双嗜性毒株分别感染R5、X4或R5／X4的GHOST细胞系，显示双嗜性毒株可同时利用CCR5和CXCR4辅助受体，但69．23％的R5／X4毒株以CCR5受体为主，30．77％的R5／X4毒株以CXCR4受体为主。结论HIV-1B′亚型R5／X4病毒不仅有更广泛的宿主细胞嗜性，而且在GHOST-R5／X4细胞中感染性明显提高。持续使用CCR5受体的毒株在疾病进展的过程中虽然辅助受体的利用是一样的，但病毒感染细胞的能力增加。

Application of a noninvasive oral fluid test for detection of treponemal IgG in a predominantly HIV-infected population

The performance of a time-resolved fluorescence immunoassay (TRFIA) for detection of treponemal IgG from oral fluid specimens has been assessed in a predominantly HIV-infected population. Serological investigation is the method of choice for confirming clinical suspicion of syphilis; however, in the primary stage of disease, direct detection of treponemes in lesion fluid or Treponema pallidum DNA is recommended because of the reduced sensitivity of serological tests. There may be occasions when blood for serological investigation is difficult to obtain due to individual patient preference or logistical necessity to improve participation in screening initiatives, particularly in outreach situations. Collection of oral fluid for detection of treponemal antibody may prove an attractive alternative and, with this in mind, an oral fluid assay for detection of treponemal IgG was developed. Time-resolved fluorescence was used to detect treponemal IgG extracted from commercially available oral fluid collection devices. Paired serum and saliva samples were obtained from 210 individuals, 101 of whom were diagnosed with syphilis on the grounds of medical examination confirmed by serological testing. Oral fluid specimens from 14 subjects were rejected because they contained insufficient control antibody or were inhibitory. The population tested was predominantly men who have sex with men, many of whom were HIV infected. The overall sensitivity and specificity of the oral fluid assay was 95.8 and 86.1%, respectively, based on the 5th percentile of the positive results, and 93.7 and 91.1%, respectively, based on a cutoff derived by mixture model analysis. For individuals with primary syphilis, the optimum sensitivity of the oral fluid assay was 87.5%, whereas in those with disease classified as secondary syphilis and early latent syphilis, the sensitivity of the oral fluid assay was 100 and 94.7%, respectively. The oral fluid assay is a useful alternative to serological testing in certain situations, and further development of this technology to enable detection of treponemal IgM should increase its sensitivity for detecting cases of primary syphilis.     

The Distribution of Attention Across Auditory Input Channels: An Assessment Using the Human Evoked Potential

In order to determine the extent to which distraction disrupts performance when attention is divided, the distribution of attention across five auditory input channels was assessed using the N1 component of the human auditory evoked potential. In addition, the possibility that methylphenidate (Ritalin) affects the distribution of attention across input channels was tested. Sixteen subjects performed a tone discrimination task under conditions of focused attention and divided attention, both with and without the presence of stimuli interposed between the points to be attended. The subjects performed in two sessions during which they received either methylphenidate (10 mg) or a placebo in a double-blind design. The results showed that the interposed stimuli were receiving some attention resulting in a disruption of performance. Methylphenidate did not affect the distribution of attention as reflected in the N1 wave. The data are interpreted as showing that: 1) distraction plays a major role in producing performance deficits observed with divided attention; and 2) methylphenidate does not appreciably affect the distribution of attention across input channels.     

Comparison of LightCycler-based PCR,COBAS amplicor CMV monitor,and pp65 antigenemia assays for quantitative measurement of cytomegalovirus viral load in peripheral blood specimens from patients after solid organ transplantation

In order to evaluate the LightCycler-based PCR (LC-PCR) as a diagnostic assay technique, a classical pp65 antigenemia assay and the commercially available COBAS Amplicor CMV Monitor (CACM) assay were compared to the LC-PCR assay for the detection and quantitation of cytomegalovirus (CMV) load in 404 parallel specimens of peripheral blood from 66 patients after solid organ transplantation. A good correlation existed among these three assays (r congruent with 0.6, P < 0.0001). The LC-PCR assay was the most sensitive (54% of specimens positive) compared to the CACM (48.6%) and the pp65 antigenemia (26%) assays. The LC-PCR assay detected all samples found positive by using both the CMV pp65 antigenemia assay and the CACM assay. The LC-PCR also had the widest dynamic range (from 250 to 10(7) DNA copies/ml of plasma). No cross-reactions were found among CMV and Epstein-Barr virus, varicella-zoster virus, or herpes simplex virus in the LC-PCR by using amplification with specifically designed primer pairs. Precision, expressed as the coefficient of variation, was <3% with standard DNA from cell cultures and between 6.55 and 14.1% with clinical specimens in repeat LC-PCR runs. One run of the LC-PCR took half of the time required for the semiautomated CACM procedure. Because of its sensitivity, specificity, cost-effectiveness, and simplicity, the LC-PCR assay could replace the pp65 antigenemia and the CACM assays as the preferred technique for the surveillance, diagnosis, and monitoring of response of CMV diseases in high-risk populations.

Parkin基因启动子区-258T/G多态性与广西地区散发性帕金森病的相关性分析

Objective To investigate the association between the-258T/G polymorphism.in the pro-moter of parkin gene and the risk for sporadic parkinson's disease (SPD) in Guangxi Province, and in relationto the age of onset, of PD patients. Methods PCR-RFLP and sequence analysis were used to determine thegenotype of-258T/G polymorphism between all patients and healthy controls. Results The G allele was morecommon in patients than controls (55.20%:43.33% ,x2=6.898, P<0.05, OR=1.61, 95% CI: 1.13 ～2.30). The frequency of GG genotype was higher in patients than in controls (28.00 %: 18.33%, x2=7.159, P<0.05, OR=2.75, 95% CI : 1.31 ～ 5.77). The frequency of TG + GG genotype was higher in pa-tients than in controls (82.40%:68.33%, x2=6.551, P<0.05, OR=2.17.95%CI: 1.20 ～3.93). Afterbeing stratified by onset age, the frequencies of the G allele and GG genotype were significantly higher in pa-tients with onset age over 50 years than those in controls respectively. On the other hand, the frequency was notsignificantly different between the younger onset PD patients and the controls. Conclusion The parkin promot-er-258T/G polymorphism might be a risk factor for PD in Guangxi Province, and the G allele was increasedwith increasing age.
