Abstract:
【Objective】 To map a comprehensive description of microbiome presented in healthy blood donations in Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, and detect the potential pathogens and its prevalence. 【Methods】 A total of 1 299 blood samples were randomly selected from healthy blood donors in Liangshan Prefecture. Total nucleic acids were extracted and sequenced by high-throughput sequencing, and the microbiome was determined by metagenomics analysis. Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and ELISA assays were used to detect antibodies against HSV DNA and HSA in each sample. The prevalence of HSV in healthy blood donors was compared in terms of gender, age, occupation, education level, and frequency of donation. 【Results】 3.49GB data were obtained from DNA pool through high-throughput sequencing. After filtering the data of human genome, the DNA sequences annotated as bacteria, parasites / fungi and viruses were 213 057, 10 623 and 15 reads, respectively. A total of 2.79GB data were obtained from cDNA pool, after filtering the data of human genome, the fragments annotated as bacteria, parasites / fungi and viruses were 4 105 600, 18 446 and 0 reads, respectively. The prevalence of IgG and / or IgM antibodies against herpes simplex virus type 1 and 2 were 8.62% (112 / 1 299) and 18.32% (238/1 299), and that of nucleic acid was 0.77 ‰ (1/1 299). 【Conclusion】 The microbiome of healthy blood donors in Liangshan Prefecture and the potential pathogens were identified in this study. Regional specificity of HSV infections emerged in Liangshan Prefecture. Considering the collaboration between HSV-2 and HIV infection, epidemiological investigation of HSV-2 infection should be conducted preferentially among different populations in Liangshan Prefecture and other HIV high prevalence areas in order to benefit the prevention and control of HIV.
