Novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is the pathogen of COVID-19. Some severe cases may suffer from respiratory failure or even death, which poses a great challenge to global public health. 2019-nCoV proteins not only participate in virus proliferation, but also play an important role in antagonizing host innate immune response, especially interferon response. In this paper, 2019-nCoV proteins involved in regulating host interferon response and the complex interaction between 2019-nCoV and interferons were summarized, aiming to provide a theoretical reference for the prevention and control of COVID-19.

Objective To investigate the significance and characteristics of T lymphocyte subsets and co-stimulatory CD28 in peripheral blood of patients with primary biliary cirrhosis. Methods Tri-colour flow-cytometry was used to detect the levels of T lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood in 98 patients with primary biliary cirrhosis and 30 age and gender matched healthy controls. Results Compared to control group the percentage of CD4+ T increased and CD8+ T lymphocyte decreased in the PBC group. The CD4+/CD8+ ratio in the PBC group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). And the percentage of CD4+CD28- T cells and CD8+CD28- T cells increased, too (P<0.05). Conclusion There are immunological abnormalities in PBC and the expression of co-stimulator CD28 is significantly decreased. CD8+CD28-T lymphocytes may have immune regulatory effect in PBC.

OBJECTIVE:To study the influence of butylphthalide on the pharmacokinetics of aspirin in rats. METHODS:20 rats were randomly divided into control group(vegetable oil 0.4 ml/rat+aspirin 10 mg/kg)and trial group(butylphthalide 80 mg/kg+aspirin 10 mg/kg) intragastrically,once a day,for consecutive 10 days. Blood samples were collected before the last medication and 10,20,40,60,120,240,360,480,600 and 720 min after medication,0.2 ml each time. The blood concentration of drugs was determined by HPLC,and pharmacokinetics parameters were calculated by DAS 2.0 software. RESULTS:Main pharmacokinet-ic parameters of aspirin in control group vs. trial group were as follows as cmax of (28.68 ± 6.08) vs. (29.33 ± 4.25)μg/ml;t1/2 of (2.48±0.67)vs.(1.60±0.36)h;AUC0-720 min of(188.71±24.29)vs.(140.31±15.08)μg·h/ml;CL/F of(0.05±0.01)vs.(0.07± 0.01)L/(h·kg);there were significant differences in t1/2,AUC0-720 min and CL/F(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Butylphthalide has no significant effect on the absorption and distribution of aspirin in rats,but can strengthen its metabolism and elimination.

Objective To study the association between three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP; rs2241766,rs1501299 and rs12495941) variants of the adiponectin gene (ADIPOQ) and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in PCOS family trios.Methods A total of 224 unrelated PCOS probands,their biological parents were recruited.Anthropometric variables such as waist circumference (WC),hip circumference (HC),height and weight were measured in all subjects during the first visit to the outpatient department.Body mass index (BMI) and waist-hip ratio (WHR) were calculated.Serum fasting glucose (FBG),fasting insulin (FINS),total cholesterol (TC),triglycerides (TG),low-density lipoprotein and highdensity lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) levels were measured.PCOS patients were divided into two groups based on BMh group A (BMI＜25 kg/m2) and group B (BMI≥25 kg/m2).Parents of PCOS patients were accordingly categorized into group C,D (fathers) and group E,F (mothers).The transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) was used to analyze the association between three SNP of ADIPOQ and PCOS.Results (1) A significant positive association was detected between SNP rs1501299 and PCOS (x2=7.093,P=0.008).However we failed to find significant overtransmission of the other two SNP rs2241766 and rs12495941 from parents to PCOS offsprings (x2=1.620,P=0.203; x2=0.713,P=0.398).(2) Linkage disequilibrium (LD) was analyzed in the subjects,rs1501299 and rs2241766 were in weak LD (r2=0.063,D'=0.621).(3) The levels of WC,HC,WHR,testosterone,TG,HDL and FINS were significantly differences between obese and lean PCOS patients (P＜0.05).While in fathers we only found WC,HC,TC levels being statistically different (P＜ 0.05).Mothers of obese PCOS patients had increased levels of FINS compared with mothers of lean PCOS patients (P＜0.05).The genotype frequencies of the three SNP were not different in obese and lean PCOS patients and their parents (P＞0.05).Conclusions TDT confirms that SNP rs1501299 in the ADIPOQ is significantly associated with the risk of PCOS in the Chinese Han population.The three SNP of the ADIPOQ were not associated with the obesity of PCOS.
