Marburg virus (MARV) is a lethal virus that causes fatal hemorrhagic fever.It belongs to the Filoviridae family which also includes Ebola virus.MARV is similar to Ebola virus in structure and infection mechanism.Moreover,the diseases caused by them have similar clinical symptoms.However,researches on MARV are less than those on Ebola virus.In this review,we focus on the viral structure,especially the structure of MARV glycoprotein (GP) which determines its infectivity,functions of MARV GP as well as protective antibodies and vaccines against this protein.

Objective To explore the pathological changes of lung, expression of the relevant inflammatory factors and oxidative stress markers of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats undergoing autologous orthotopic liver transplantation (AOLT). Methods Thirty SD rats were randomized into sham group and AOLT group. The pathological changes of lung, expression of the relevant inflammatory mediators and oxidative stress markers were detected . Results ( 1 ) Compared with the sham group , the pathological scores of lung tissue in AOLT group increased significantly and reached its peak at 8 h after surgery. Then the pathological scores decreased to the level of sham within 24 h to 48 h after surgery; (2)The relative expression of inflammatory mediators including TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-8 increased significantly and reached its peak at 8 h after surgery in AOLT group. Then decreased to the level of sham group within 24 h to 48 h after surgery; (3)The change trends of MDA and H2O2 were similar to inflammatory mediators.The relative SOD expression decreased significantly and touched the nadir at 8h after surgery and then increased. Conclusion The pathological changes of lung expression, the relevant inflammatory mediators and oxidative stress markers of rats underwent AOLT were consistent.

Objective To study the effects of a miRNA family member,let-7e,on the LPS-induced expression of TNF-α in primary monocytes and the possible mechanism.Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated form human blood sample by using density gradient centrifugation for further isolation of primary monocytes.Flow cytometry analysis was used to measure the purity of isolated primary monocytes.The efficiencies of transfection were evaluated by qRT-PCR and immunofluorescence assay after transfecting the primary monocytes with let-7e mimic or miRNA mimic negative control (NC) for 24 h,36 h and 48 h.To screen out the optimal stimulation time,ELISA was performed to detect the concentrations of TNF-α in the supernatants of cell culture after stimulating the primary monocytes with 1 mg/L of LPS for 0 h,1 h,3 h,6 h and 12 h,respectively.ELISA and qRT-PCR were used to measure the expression of TNF-α in the transfected cells with the interference of LPS.Western blot assay was used to detect the level of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) in let-7e mimic-transfected primary monocytes and the levels of NF-κB p65,ADP-ribosylation factor GTPase-activating protein 1 (ARFGAP1) and Arfaptin2 in the siEZH2-transfected monocytes.Results More than 70％ of the isolated cells were CD14+ cells.The miRNA mimics could transfect the primary monocytes effectively and the transfection rate was about 70％.High levels of let7e were detected in let-7e mimic-transfected primary monocytes 24 hours after the transfection.High levels of TNF-α were observed in the primary monocytes after stimulated with LPS for 12 h,which was considered as the optimal LPS stimulation time.Results of the ELISA indicated that let-7e mimic significantly inhibited the LPS-induced expression of TNF-α in primary monocytes at both mRNA and protein levels.Western blot assay showed that the levels of EZH2 in the let-7e mimic transfected primary monocytes were significantly lower than that in mimic NC transfected primary monocytes.Silenced expression of EZH2 significantly inhibited the expression of NF-κB p65 in nucleus as well as the expression of ARFGAP1 and Arfaptin2.Conclusion let-7e mimic significantly inhibited the LPS-induced expression of TNF-α in primary monocytes.It is possible that Let-7e regulates the expression of NF-κB p65,ARFGAP1 and Arfaptin2 by targeting EZH2 directly to inhibit the expression of TNF-α.

Objective To assess the efficacy,side effects and perinatal outcome of nifedipine compared with other antihypertensives for treating severe preeclampsia in pregnant women. Methods Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that comparing nifedipine with other antihypertensives for severe preeclampsia were searched in PubMed,EMBase,Cochrane library,CNKI and VIP database etc( till January 2012).The quality of the included RCTs was evaluated,and Meta-analvsis was performed with Rev Man 5.1software.Results Nine trials were included,involving 386 women in the nifedipine group,and 378 women in other antihypertensives group.Compared with other antihypertensives,nifidepine was associated with greater effective control of blood pressure ( OR =2.65,95％ CI:1.65 -4.25,P ＜0.01 ).There was no clear difference in the time needed to control blood pressure ( W.M D =- 3.64,95％ CI:- 10.90 - 3.61,P =0.32 ).Nifedipine could prolong gestation better than other antihypertensives ( WMD =5.14,95％ CI:3.29-6.99,P ＜0.01 ).There were no clear differences in maternal side effects headache (P =0.28),palpitation ( P =0.06 ),and nausea vomiting ( P =0.28 ).No noticeable difference was found between the two groups in the Apgar score at five minutes ( WMD =- 0.21,95％ CI:- 0.32 - 0.91,P =0.72),neonatal respiratory distress syndrome ( OR =1.24,95％ CI:0.57 - 2.67,P =0.59 ),or perinatal deaths ( OR =0.49,95％ CI:0.22 - 1.11,P =0.09 ).Conclusion Nifedipine is associated with greater effective control of blood pressure and prolongation of gestation,with no additional neonatal respiratory distress syndrome or perinatal deaths,compared with other antihypertensives for women with severe preeclampsia.
