Accurate determination of HIV-1 proviral burden and viral load is very useful in prognosis of HIV-1 infected patients and in assessment of drug for therapy of AIDS patients. In order to establish a quantitative method in detecting HIV-1 proviral burden and viral load, 8E5 cell line and a recombinant RNA constructs were used as the HIV-1 proviral DNA and viral RNA external references, respectively. The PCR products were labeled with the fluorescent DNA dye SYBR green. The amount of burden or load was measured by GeneAmp 5700 Sequence Detection System. Using this method, the HIV-1 proviral burdens in PBMC of patient and in cell suspension treated with the compounds AZT, GL and WT were measured. HIV-1 viral loads in supernatant of the cell culture treated with the above compounds were also determined. The therapeutic indices (TIs) of the compounds calculated based on the inhibition of virus induced syncytial formation, and inhibitionn of proviral burdens and viral loads were compared, and their TIs successively increased. The fluorescent real time quantitative PCR possesses very good specificity, sensitivity and duplication. TI value of a drug based on inhibition of proviral burden in cell culture, and the proviral burden in PBMC of patient may be useful in evaluating a drug on eradicating provirus from resting and memory CD4 T cells.

Abstract: Mycobacterium senegalense is one of the major pathogens causing bovine farcy, and reports of its infection in human are rare. Here is a report on a woman who had been taking hormones and immunosuppressants for a long time for SLE and underwent abdominal soft tissue infection with Mycobacterium senegalense after abdominal liposuction, to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment. The patient, female, 32 years old, has a history of SLE for more than 2 years, and currently takes "methylprednisolone, hydroxychloroquine, and mycophenolate mofetil" regularly. Nine months before the patient was admitted to the hospital, she once performed abdominal, waist and buttock liposuction in a medical beauty institution. One month after the operation, several masses gradually appeared on the abdominal wall, accompanied by tenderness, one of the masses had obvious fluctuation on palpation and purulent fluid could be drawn out. The location of the abdominal wall mass was consistent with the insertion site of the liposuction needle. After the onset of the disease, the patient went to the medical beauty institution for puncture of the abdominal wall mass, and 5 mL of purulent fluid was pierced and sent for bacterial culture, and cultured "Mycobacterium Senegalense", after 3 days of treatment with "cephalosporin" antibiotics (specifically unknown), the symptoms did not improve, so she went to the second affiliated hospital of hainan medical college. After completing the relevant examinations during the hospitalization in our hospital, in order to clarify the etiology, another abdominal puncture to extract pus was performed, the mycobacterial culture + identification results: Mycobacterium senegalense. Consistent with the out-of-hospital results, the diagnosis of Mycobacterium senegalense infection was confirmed. After 3 months of treatment with "cefoxitin, azithromycin, amikacin, and levofloxacin", the patient's abdominal wall soft tissue infection was cured. Trauma or invasive procedures can lead to skin, muscle, or bone infection with nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), which can manifest as chronic painless nodules that progress to purulent folliculitis and abscesses. NTM infection should be suspected when the patient's wound has been exposed to water, there is a history of surgery, and empirical anti-infection is ineffective. This is the first case of Mycobacterium senegalense infection caused by medical beauty, which tell people that they should be cautious when choosing medical aesthetic projects and medical aesthetic institutions.
