Objective:Based on the high-throughput detection technique of multiplex PCR combined with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry, constructing the characteristic SNP profiles of different strains, and establishing a rapid, accurate and highly sensitive method for the diagnosis of bloodstream infection pathogens.Methods:Seven kinds of pathogens such as common Escherichia coli were selected as target. The multiple PCR reaction conditions was optimized, and the characteristic peaks of each target bacteria were detected by MALDI-TOF MS to establish the joint detect system. Common primer pairs and central homo-sequence primer pairs were designed to analyse the formation of primer dimer. Using simulated bacterial infection blood samples with detection system to determine specificity and sensitivity. One hundred and fifty blood samples from suspected bacteremia patients were collected from June to September 2020 in a hospital in Beijing, and the identification results were compared to traditional identification method of clinical application that are using χ 2 test. Results:The cycle threshold (Ct) value of the central homo-sequence primers that were designed were more than 38, with a delay of 6-10 cycles. The joint mass spectrometry detection system could detect seven kinds of bacteria divided into two groups at the same time. The target bacteria can be detected specific product of the peak, and the clinical strains other than the target strains only had primer peaks. All maps had non-specific miscellaneous peaks. The sensitivity of Escherichia coli could reach 50 CFU/ml, and the detection limit of other bacteria was 100 CFU/ml. The detection results of 150 patients showed that 46 cases were positive by traditional method. The positive rate was 30.67% (46/150), including two cases of mixed infection. Forty-eight cases were positive by mass spectrometry, and the positive rate was 32.0% (48/150), including three cases of mixed infections. The negative coincidence rate was 100% (101/101). The comparison of the two methods showed that the P=0.625>0.01, the Kappa=0.938, the sensitivity and specificity was 97.82%(45/46) and 97.11%(101/104), respectively. There was no significant difference between the two methods, and the results of nucleic acid mass spectrometry could also be used in clinic. Conclusions:The established detection system can not only quickly and accurately detect seven common pathogens causing bloodstream infection, and effectively shorten the time needed for traditional culture and identification, but also can detect multiple bacterial mixed infections at the same time to make up for the possibility of missed detection. Besides, the method can also be used to identify other bacteria.

Objective To reveal the mechanisms of immunological infertility,the method of coimmunoprecipitation(CO-IP) and liquid chromatogram mass/mass (LC-MS/MS) was used to screen sperm membrane proteins which interacting with antisperm antibodies (ASA).Methods This study was designed as a case-control.The disease group including 56 serum samples from 521 cryptogenic infertile patients were screened ASA positive by ELISA and conformed with mixed antiglobulin reaction(MAR).The controls were 31 serum samples which ASA is negative and already possessed healthy offspring.All subjects were enrolled from September 2015 to December 2015 in China PLA General Hospital.Spermatozoa samples from 48donors with normal sperm parameters were from January 2016 to April 2016 in China PLA General Hospital.The purified human sperm membrane proteins were then mixed with serum from disease group (positive for ASA) and control group (not containing ASA).The binding proteins of antisperm antibodies were enriched using CO-IP assay.The immunoprecipitates were separated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyactylamide gel (SDS-PAGE),then the binding proteins were cut from the gel and analyzed by LC-MS/MS after the enzymolysis.These proteins could bc idcntified as definition,biological function (s) and subccllular localization with Uniprot database.Results The serum samples from infertile persons (39 females and 17males) were screened ASA positive by ELISA and conformed with MAR.The healthy controls (17 females and 14 males) were ASA-negative in ELISA.Forty proteins that interact with ASA were obtained from the study and these could be divided into three groups:11 antigens detected by control serum samples only,14antigens recognised by both infertile patients and control sera,and 15 antigens specific for patients with ASA.These 15 proteins are Sperm Cation channcl protein 1,Sperm Cation channel protein 3,Sperm Cation channel protein 4,Sperm associated antigen 9,Apolipoprotein A-I,Dynein heavy chain 14,Cylicin-2,Izumo sperm-egg fusion protein 4,Thioredoxin domain-containing protein 2,IQ domain-containing protein H,IQ domain-containing protein F1,Spermatogenesis-associated protein 5,Spermatogenesis-associated protein 5-like protein 1,Sperm acrosome membrane-associated protein 1,E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RNF 114.Conclusion Fifteen proteins discovered with CO-IP technology and LC-MS/MS analysis could be referred as male immunoinfertility-related antigens and they may hold the great importance in revealing the secret of immunological infertility.

Objective To investigate the expressions of leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and regulated upon activation,normal T cell expressed and secreted factor (RANTES) in mice with bloodstream infection by 4 different single pathogen and provide research basis for the early diagnosis of bacteriogenous bloodstream infection.Methods CD-1 (ICR,Institute of Cancer Research) mouse models of bloodstream infection with the standard strains of Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus),Enterococcus faecalis (E.faecalis),Escherichia coli (E.coli) and Klebsiella pneumonia(K,pneumoniae) were established.The serum samples were collected at the 0.5,1,3,6,12,24 and 48 hours after infection and the concentrations of LIF and RANTES in mouse serum of experimental groups and control were detected by Luminex liquid chip system.Results The median lethal dose (LD50) of S.aureus,E.faecalis,E.coli and K.pneumoniae were 8.1 × 108/mL,9.6 × 108/mL,8.1 × 108/mL and 1.1 × 109/mL,respectively.The concentration of serum LIF was significantly increased in 1 hour after infection.The peak concentrations of LIF in the four groups were (51.6±5.0),(73.2±20.8),(7.3 ±0.9)and (6.1 ± 1.2) pg/mL respectively,and the differences were statistically significant compared with the control group (P ＜ 0.01).The concentrations of RANTES in E.faecalis group,E.coli group and K.pneumoniae group were increased after infection for 1 hour and increased significantly after infection for 3 hours.The increased concentrations of RANTES in E.coli group and K.pneumoniae group were more than those in S.aureus group and E.faecalis group.The peak concentrations of RANTES in S.aureus group,E.faecalis group,E.coli group and K.pneumoniae group were (1 929.0-± 25.2),(1 218.1 ± 227.4),(55.7 ± 10.0) and (179.2 ± 9.2)pg/mL,and the differences were statistically significant compared with the control group (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The concentrations of LIF and RANTES increased obviously in 1 h after the bacteria entered bloodstream.After 2 days of infections,the levels of LIF and RANTES in E.coli group and K.pneumoniae group were significantly higher than those in S.aureus group and the E.faecalis group.Combined detections of LIF and RANTES may be of certain values to differentiate the infections caused by the pathogens between gram positive and gram negative bacteria.
