ObjectiveTo explore the effect and mechanism of Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4) ligand LPS-mediated inhibition hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication in Bewo cells.MethodsFirst of all,2 μg 1.3-fold HBV recombinant vector pcDNA3.1 ( + )-HBV1.3 were transfected into Bewo cells,after 12 h,the cells were treated with LPS for 3 d.To observe the kinetics of IFN-β and TNF-α expression in Bewo cells,the Bewo cells were exposed to TLR4 ligand LPS.And the effect of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate ( PDTC),an inhibitor of NF-κB,on LPS-induced cytokines was also observed.The HBsAg,HBeAg and HBV DNA level in the culture supernatant were detected by Microparticle Enzyme Immunoassay (MEIA) and fluorescence quantitative PCR,respectively,and the expression of IFN-β,TNF-α,TRIF and MyD88 was detected by ELISA and RT-PCR,respectively.ResultsCompared with control group,LPS could significantly suppress HBV replication in Bewo cells ( P ＜0.01 ),and it could induce the production of TNFα in Bewo cells ( P ＜ 0.05 ),in time-and dose-dependent manners.PDTC strongly inhibited LPS and induced TNF-α production,but had no much effect on IFN-β in Bewo cells ( P ＜ 0.001 ).Compared with control group,the mRNA levels of MyD88 were significantly induced by LPS in the Bewo cells transfected with this recombinant vector( P ＜ 0.001 ).ConclusionsTLR4 ligand LPS could significantly suppress HBV replication by inducing TNF-α production in Bewo cells mainly via the MyD88/ NF-κB signal pathway.

In 1970′s a prevailing hypothesis postulated herpes simplex virus in cervical cancer aetiology,but Hausen has made seminal observations that identify novel human papilloma viruses as key contributors to cervical cancer and hybridization technique of nucleic acid has proven it.After the discovery of human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) by Sinossi and Montagnier,they held the evolutional history of HIV.The article objectively evaluates the role in the discovery of HIV,played by Gallo.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection has always been one of the most important public health issues in mainland China, causing a huge disease burden. It often takes decades for the chronic process of malignant transformation from HBV infection to different stages of liver diseases. Mutations associated with virus survival are eventually selected by the chronic infection process and under the immune pressure of host. These selected HBV mutations further promote the malignant transformation of liver diseases. A large amount of somatic mutations are produced in the HBV-related chronic inflammatory micro-environment, and those survival-related mutations will then be selected. The selected HBV mutations and host somatic mutations work together to promote the malignant transformation, which can be termed as an evolutionary process of “mutation-selection-adaptation”. In addition, genetic variations of individual hosts also play an important role in HBV related disease progression. For example, single-nucleotide polymorphisms of STAT pathway and HLA can interact with important HBV mutations and therefore affect HBV-related disease progression.

Hair follicle (HF), one of the skin appendages, has received a lot of attention to be a new target and pathway for drug delivery. The development of hair follicle targeted drug delivery system (HFTDDS) through percutaneous permeation is particularly important for skin diseases derived from HF such as acne, hair loss, and folliculitis for their on-site action. This review describes the structure and physiological function of HF, the microenvironment of HF, and factors affecting HF permeation. Multiple nanoformulations used to improve the HF permeation and technologies to characterize the HF permeation were introduced. The latest advance of HFTDDS based on nanoformulations were systematically summarized and analyzed in the treatment of acne and hair loss. Finally, the challenges of formulating HFTDDS were discussed. The review is expected to provide some ideas and references for developing delivery systems for treating skin diseases derived from HF.

Abstract On May 30 2022, Changsha Center for Disease Control and Prevention received a report of multiple cases of fever from a kindergarten. A field epidemiology investigation, laboratory testing, and control and prevention work were immediately conducted. A total of 76 cases were reported, and all were students, with an attack rate of 9.93%. The onset of illness was peaked between May 18 and June 8. The main clinical symptoms were fever, cough and sore throat, and all the cases were mild. There were 39 cases tested positive for human adenovirus (HAdV) nucleic acid or antigen, and 7 nucleic acid positive specimens were identified as HAdV-7 through virus isolation, culture and genotyping. The field epidemiology investigation and laboratory testing results concluded that it was a clustered outbreak caused by HAdV-7 infection. The main reason for the spread of the outbreak might be that the kindergarten failed to report it in time. High student density, poor classroom ventilation, lax morning and afternoon inspections, non-standard daily disinfection, and the prevalence of HAdV outbreaks in the community were also associated. Kindergartens should improve its infectious disease prevention and control mechanism, strictly follow the reporting regulations, implement the three early measures, standardize disinfection work, and enhance daily ventilation to avoid similar outbreaks in the future.

Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of human mitochondrial transcription termi-nation factor-3 ( hMTERF3) in non-small cell lung cancer ( NSCLS) and to analyze its clinicopathological significance. Methods The paraffin block samples used in this study included 65 cases of NSCLC and 32 cases of normal alveolar epithelial tissues. We determined the expressions of hMTERF3 in NSCLC and normal alveolar epithelial tis-sues by immunohistochemistry, calculate the survival rate using the Kaplan-Meier method, and analyzed the risk factors affecting the prognosis of NSCLC using the Cox Proportional Hazard Model. Results In the 65 cases of NSCLC, 31 ( 47. 69%) showed positive expression of hMTERF3. The total survival time was significantly shor-ter in the patients with a high than in those with a low hMTERF3 ex-pression ([30.39±3.35] vs [57.61±7.12] mo, P<0.05). The riskfactors affecting the prognosis of NSCLC included positive expression of hMTERF3 (HR=3.302, 95% CI:1.598-6.905) and lymph node metastasis (HR=4.052, 95% CI: 1.212-12.398). Conclusion hMTERF3 is overexpressed in NSCLC. Highly expressed hMTERF3 and lymph node metastasis reduce the survival time of NSCLC patients, suggesting that hMTERF3 may be a potential bio-marker for the prognosis of NSCLC.
