Objective:To prepare and screen monoclonal antibodies against Herpes simplex virus-1(HSV-1),and develop a double antibody sandwich quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay( Q-ELISA) for detection of HSV-1 particle. This method was used to control the quality of viral particle in the developing and manufacturing process of HSV-1. Methods: BALB/c mice was immunized with HSV-1 to prepare monoclonal antibodies. A double antibody sandwich Q-ELISA was developed to determine concentration of HSV-1 particle,which was based on the neutralizing monoclonal antibody 1F6 as capture antibody,and 2B1 as HRP-conjugated antibody. The performance of the reagent was evaluated,including specificity,sensitivity,precision,accuracy and linear. And the relation between the amount of virus detected by this method and the virus titer was analyzed by regression analysis method. Results: The Q-ELISA for HSV-1 particle was developed. The quantitation scope was 0. 125-2 μg/ml, the coefficient correlation was 0. 995 5, the limit of detection was 0. 125 μg/ml, the recovery was between 85. 6% and 107. 1%, the variation coefficient was lower than 10%, and the reagent does not react with other samples except HSV-1 antigen. This method has a good correlation with virus titer. Conclusion:The Q-ELISA for HSV-1 particle was successfully developed,which provide a new approach for rapid and quantitative detection of HSV-1 antigen.

Monotropein is a compound classified into iridoid which is found in herbaceous plants Morindae officinalis. It possesses anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-osteoarthritic activities. Previous study indicates that monotropein may have the potential to combat cardiovascular disease, although the related mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we constructed the model of atherosclerosis by oxidized low density lipoprotein-induced vascular smooth muscle cells and LDLR –/–mice given high-fat diet to investigate the effects of monotropein on atherosclerosis.Our results showed that monotropein treatment significantly reduced the area of atherosclerotic plaques and necrotic cores in mice, inhibited the proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells, and reduced inflammatory responses and oxidative stress, which in turn alleviated atherosclerosis. In addition, we found that monotropein reduced the expression levels of P-NF-κB and P-AP-1. In conclusion, our data suggest that monotropein inhibited the proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells by mediating the activity of NF-κB, AP-1, reducing the level of inflammation and oxidative stress, and thus resisting the development of atherosclerosis. These findings demonstrate the efficacious therapeutic impact of monotropein on atherosclerosis and elucidate its specific target.
