Objective To understand the genetic characteristics of Enterovirus 71 ( EVT1 ) circu-lating strains of Guangdong province in 2008. Methods We isolated an EV71 strain from the fatal case of the hand, foot and mouth disease during an epidemic of Guangdong in 2008. Its complete genome was se-quenced and analyzed comparatively. Results The results showed that the full length of EV71 GDFS-3 ge-nome( not including poly A tail ) is 7405 bp. No insertion or deletion is detected in the coding region. There are several insertions and deletions in 5'and 3'UTR. Phylogenetic analysis of GDFS-3 and reference strains showed GDFS-3 strain shares the highest nueleotide homology with TW984 strain(96.0% ) but low homology with SIN5865, MS and BrCr( about 81.0% ). GDFS-3 strain also shares the highest amino acid homology with TW984 strain(99.0% ). It clustered with reference strains of CA subgenotype in the phylogenetie tree. The nucleotide identity with CA reference strains is 91.0% -95.0%. Conclusion The phylogenetic analysis based on the entire genome demonstrates that GDFS-3 strain has the nearest genetic relationship with TW984 strains ( isolated in 2004). GDFS-3 may belong to the same subgenogroup ( CA ) with Taiwan predominant strains. Otherwise,Some mutations in 5'UTR of EV71 may play the very important role in heightened viru-lence.

Objective To study the epidemic and genetic characteristics of coxsackievirus A6 ( CVA6) strains isolated in Guangdong province.Methods Enterovirus strains positive for neither entero-virus A71 ( EV71) nor CVA16 were isolated from Guangdong province during 2008 to 2013 to screen CVA6 isolates by real-time PCR.The entire sequences of viral genes encoding VP1 of CVA6 positive samples were amplified and sequenced.The phylogenetic analysis was performed to analyze the full-length gene sequences encoding VP1 of CVA6 isolates and sequences downloaded from GenBank by using DNAStar6.0 and MEGA5.2 software packages.Results CVA6 strains accounted for 61.4%of the 1672 non-EV71 and non-CVA16 enterovirus strains isolated in Guangdong province during year 2008 to 2013.The positive rates were respectively 10.5%(4/38), 66.7%(34/51), 36.2% (81/224), 63.0% (182/289), 62.3% (325/522) and 73.0%(400/548) from 2008 to 2013 and the differences among different years were significant (χ2=133.79, P<0.01).The CVA6 isolates could be classified into four clusters in the phylogenetic tree, designated A, B, C and D (including D1, D2 and D3 subgenogroups) genogroups.The four clusters shared nucleotide diversity ranging from 15.5% to 23.1%.The CVA6 strains isolated in Guangdong province shared 88.7%-100.0% homologies in nucleotide and 95.7%-100.0% in amino acid.Subtype D2 strains circulated during 2008 to 2012 and subtype D3 strains circulated during 2009 to 2013.Conclusion CVA6 strains were the predominant enterovirus strains among non-EV71 and non-CVA16 enterovirus strains circula-ted in Guangdong province from year 2008 to 2013.The CVA6 isolates could be classified into A, B, C and D genogroups based on the sequence analysis of VP1 region.Subgroups D2 and D3 isolates were identified and the subgroup D3 isolates were the prevalent strains in Guangdong.

Objective:To evaluate the immunogenicity of an experimental SARS-CoV inactivated vaccine.Methods:The virus suspension of F69 strain was inactivated with 0.4% formaldehyde and purified,then used as the immune antigen combined with Freund′s adjuvant.Eight adult New Zealand rabbits were immunized 4 times with this vaccine.12 sets of rabbit serum were sampled from the third day to 74th day after first immunization.Titers of specific IgG antibody and neutralizing antibody were determined by indirect ELISA and micro-cytopathic effect neutralizing test.Results:Rapid and potent humoral immune responses were induced by F69 inactivated vaccine in all eight immunized rabbits.Both specific IgG antibody and neutralizing antibody all peaked just with 2 vaccinations,with the maximum titer of 1∶81 920 and 1∶20 480 respectively about 6 weeks after first immunization.Across neutralizing reaction existed between F69 and Z2-Y3 strains.Conclusion:F69 inactivated vaccine owns strong immunogenicity.Similar antigenic epitopes exist between the F69 strain and Z2-Y3 strain,which ensured the cross neutralizing reaction.

Objective To construct the recombinant rAAV2-hGAD65 vector and detect its function both in vitro and in vivo. Methods The cDNA of human glutamic acid decarboxylase 2 (hGAD65) gene, which was one of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) synthetase, cloned by the method of RT-PCR, was subcloned into the adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector and formed the recombinant vector of AAV-hGAD65 (rAAV2-hGAD65). The recombinant vector was packaged by the AAV Helper-Free System and its titer was detected. The primary fibroblast, cultured from the rat lung, was transfected by the rAAV2-hGAD65. The expression of the hGAD65 in fibroblast was detected by immunohistochemical method and the level of GABA in the media was assayed by high performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC). In vivo, the hGAD65 was detected by immunohistochemical method in STN and the concentration of the GABA in the reticular part of substantia nigra (SNr) was assayed by HPLC after the rAAV2-hGAD65 was injected into the subthalamic nucleus (STN) by the stereotaxic method. Results The sequence of hGAD65 cDNA was in accordance with that in the Genebank. The amino acid sequence of hGAD65 had no mutation and the titer of rAAV2-hGAD65 was reached 4.5 ×10~(11) per milliliter. The efficiency of infection to the rat primary firoblasts was 80%, and the concentration of GABA in the media of fibroblasts was (45.66±6.07)nmol/L per liter. In vivo, hGAD65 could be detected in STN, and the concentrateion of the GABA in the SNr was increased from (5.66±1.07)nmol/g to (12.66±2.59)nmol/g.Conclusion The cDNA of hGAD65 was cloned by RT-PCR and the recombinant vector of rAAV2-hGAD65 was constructed. The AAV can infect the primary fibroblast in vitro and the hGAD65 can catalyse the glutamic acic to GABA. In vivo, the concentration of GABA in the SNr was heighten after the rAAV2-hGAD65 was injected into the STN.

The theory of "equal stress on bones and muscles" emphasizes that "the tendons bind to the bones, the bones are stretched, the bones are connected, and the bones are fractured. The relationship between bone and soft tissues are important, which is the law of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the treatment of orthopedic diseases. For patients with lumbar disc herniation, the percutaneous intervertebral foraminal technology remodels the disordered internal biological balance of the spine under pathological conditions. Among them, two common clinical minimally invasive approaches under endoscopy are paid attention to soft tissue protection, and active and appropriate functional exercises after surgery, which have become a typical manifestation of the theory of "equal stress on bones and muscles" in modern spinal orthopedic surgery.

Objective: To analyze the genetic characterization of glycoprotein M(gM.),glycoprotein L(gL) of varicella zoster virus. Methods: According to the program of "Ministry of Science and Technology of China" , Based on the 12 suspected VZV patients monitored in Beijing (1 case), Shanghai (5 cases), Jilin (2 cases), Qinghai (1 case), Guangdong (2 case) and Sichuan (case) in 2007-2015. A total of 12 Vesicle fluid and throat swab samples were collected. Positive samples were identified by Agarose gel electrophoresis and two glycoprotein genes were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Nucleotide sequences were determined and analyzed by PCR amplification of VZV positive specimens V-OKA-BK of the domestic varicella attenuated live vaccine and the Varilrix-1 of the imported attenuated live vaccine. Nucleotide sequences of VZV positive specimens, vaccine strains (V-OKA-BK, varilrix-1) and GenBank foreign wild strains (41 strains), parent strains (P-oka), vaccine strains (V-oka, Varilrix, Varivax) were compared using BioEdit and MEGA 5.0. Results: 12 specimens were VZV positive. Compared with the vaccine strains and the parent strains, the GM gene of 1 positive specimen had radical mutation at 86686 sites, which resulted in amino acid mutation, 5 positive specimens had base mutation at 87844 sites, and 30 strains of foreign wild strains had the same variation at 87 844 sites. 1 positive specimens of gL gene in 101245 sites had base mutation, and led to amino acid mutation, 6 positive specimens at 101624, 101625, 101626 sites had base of loss and the foreign wild strains in these 3 sites had the same variation. Compared with the vaccine strains, the nucleotide and amino acid homology of gM of 12 VZV positive specimens were 99.2%-100% and 98.2%-100%, respectively, and gL of those were 99.3%-100% and 98.6%-100%, respectively. Compared with 41 strains of foreign wild strains, homology of gM's nucleotides and amino acid were 99.3%-100% and 98.5%-100%, respectively; 99.1%-100% and 98.6%-100% for gL. The results of phylogenetic analysis showed that 7 VZV positive samples were on the same branch with 4 vaccine strains and p-oka strain. Based on gL, 12 VZV positive samples were on the same branch as the vaccine strains and p-oka strain. Conclusion This study demonstrates that the genes of gM, gL are highly conserved and remain stable immunogen, which may be involved in the attenuation of VZV and need to be further researched.
