Human cytomegalovirus(HCMV)infection is quite prevalent in population. HCMV triggers important disorders in pregnant women,immune-compromised individuals and organ-transplant patients. For dec-ades,more and more scholars believe that NK cells are important immune cells against HCMV. The activity of NK cells largely depends on the balance between the signals transducted by inhibitory receptors and activatory re-ceptors,therefore the study of NK receptors is of great importance. It may be helpful to the basic research and clinical treatment of HCMV infection. Here,this paper reviews the changes and the molecular mechanism of NK receptors in the control of HCMV infection.

Objective:To establish an ion chromatography method for the determination of methane sulfonic acid in betahistine me-sylate and evaluate the uncertainty in the measurement. Methods: An ion chromatographic column IonPac AS11-HC ( 25 mm × 4. 0 mm,5 μm) was used with 12 mmol·L-1 NaOH as the eluent and an electrical conductivity detector with the suppressor of 30 mV. Results:The results showed that methane sulfonic acid could be detected without any interference. The calibration curve was linear within the range of 10-30 μg·ml-1(r=0.999 9)and the LOQ was 0.116 μg·ml-1. The average recovery was 100.8% (RSD=1. 2%, n=9). Based on the results of experiments, the influencing factors of uncertainty in the measurement were quantitatively eval-uated. The expanded uncertainty was obtained. Conclusion:The method is simple, accurate and selective. It can be used for the de-termination of methane sulfonic acid in betahistine mesylate. Based on the evaluation of uncertainty, the analysis can help reduce the uncertainty in the measurement and improve the accuracy and reliability of the determination.

Objective To study the pathogenic etiology between nasopharyngeal aspirates (NPA) and bronchoalveolar lavage lfuid (BALF) in children with lower respiratory infection. Methods Multiple pathogen in NPA and BALF from 210 cases with lower respiratory tract infection was detected. Seven common respiratory virus (respiratory syncytial virus, adenovirus, in-lfuenza virus A, inlfuenza virus B, parainlfuenza 1, parainlfuenza 2, parainlfuenza 3) were detected by direct immunolfuorescence assay. MP, CP and HBoV were detected by lfuorescence quantitative PCR.HRV and hMPV were detected by RT-PCR. Aspirates were cultured for bacteria. The results of pathogen detection in secretions of upper and lower respiratory tract were analyzed. Results Total positive detection rate of NPA and BALF in 210 cases was 91.9%(193/210), which is higher than that in NPA 75.2%(158/210) and that in BALF 85.2%(179/210). Bacteria detection rate in NPA was 13.3%(28/210), and 8.6%(18/210) in BALF, without signiifcant difference (P=0.118). Bacteria detection rate in NPA and BALF was of poor consistency (Kappa=0.262). Virus detection rate in NPA was 24.3%, which is higher than that in BALF15.2%. BALF-MP detection rate was 77.6%(163/210), signiifcantly higher than that in NPA 53.3%(112/210). There are 95.5%(107/112) cases with positive results in NPA-MP detec-tioncan also be detected in the BALF-MP. MP copies in BALF were signiifcantly higher than that in NPA (4.28×106 vs. 1.31×105), and its positive rate in NPA was still higher than that in BALF. MP detection rate in NPA in children with clinical course of longer than two weeks was much lower than those with clinical course of two weeks or less. Conclusions The pathogen detection of virus and MP in NPA can be used as a reference for lower respiratory tract infection. The joint detection of NPA and BALF can improve the detection power. The sensitivity of virus detection in NPA is higher than that in BALF. NPA pathogen detection of virus and MP is of great important evidence-based medicine in the diagnosis of lower respiratory infection. MP detection rate and its copies in BALF are signiifcantly higher than that in NPA. BALF detection is the supplement of pathogen diagnosis in severe or refractory lower respiratory infections.

Objective To explore the non-bacteria pathogens of acute laryngitis in children. Methods The clinical data and sputum sample were collected from 325 patients hospitalized due to acute laryngitis in consecutive 10 years from January 2006 to December 2015 . The multiple non-bacteria pathogens were detected and analyzed with clinical data. Seven types of respiratory viruses were detected by direct immunolfuorescence. Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP), Chlamydia pneumoniae (CP), and Boca virus (HBoV) were detected by lfuorescence quantitative PCR. The rhinovirus (HRV) and human metapneumovirus (hMPV) were detected by RT-PCR. Venous blood was collected within 24 h after hospitalization and 7-10 d after treatment. The MP antibody of IgG and IgM were detected by ELISA. Results The detection rate of non-bacteria pathogens was 46 . 2%in 325 children with acute laryngitis ( 150/325 ), including 76 cases ( 23 . 4%) of virus and 99 cases ( 30 . 5%) of MP. Virus detection rate in 1-3 year old children was obviously higher than in 0-1 year old children and over 3 years old children (χ2?=?9 . 527 , P=?0 . 009 ). With the increase of age, the detection rate of MP increased gradually (χ2?=?10 . 132 , P=?0 . 006 ). The detection rates of RSV and hBoV were higher in under 3-year-old children. The detection rates of virus in winter and spring were signiifcantly higher than those in summer and autumn (χ2?=?5.064, P=?0.024). The detection rates of MP in winter, spring, summer, and autumn was 13.1%, 25 . 0%, 38 . 2%, and 44 . 9%respectively, and the MP detection rates were increased gradually over seasons (χ2?=?4 . 438 , P=?0 . 035 ). The detection rate of RSV was higher in winter, and hBoV was higher in summer. Conclusion Acute laryngitis mainly occurred in children under 3-years-old children, and the detected non-bacteria pathogens were different among different ages and seasons. Virus was the major pathogens in young children, while MP was more common in older children.

Objective To explore the level of expression, clinical signiifcance of sB 7-H 3 in the bronchoalveolar lavage lfuid (BALF) of refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) pneumonia (RMPP) in children and the relationship between sB7-H3 and various cytokines. Methods The BALF of forty-three hospitalized children with RMPP (RMPP group) were collected for the diagnosis and treatment. Thirteen cases were lavaged only once and the other thirty cases had collected the BALF twice. The BALF of iffteen hospitalized children with bronchial foreign body were collected as control group. The expression levels of sB 7-H 3 , IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-36 in the BALF were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression levels of sB 7-H 3 , IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-36 in the BALF at the acute phase were compared with control group and the group after treatment. Analyzed the correlation between the level of sB 7-H 3 and IL-1β, IL-2 , IL-36 in the BALF of RMPP children at acute stage. Results The levels of sB 7-H 3 , IL-1β and IL-36 in the BALF of the ifrst lavage group were higher than those of single lavage group and control group (all P<0 . 05 ). The levels of sB 7-H 3 , IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-36 in the BALF of single lavage group were higher than those of control group (all P<0 . 05 ). The levels of sB 7-H 3 , IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-36 in the BALF of the second lavage group were lower than those of the ifrst lavage group (all P<0 . 05 ).The levels of sB 7-H 3 , IL-2 in the BALF of the second lavage group were higher than those in the control group (both P<0 . 05 ), but the levels of IL-1β, IL-36 in the BALF showed no difference between the second lavage group and the control group (both P>0 . 05 ). The levels of sB 7-H 3 had positive correlation with the levels of IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-36 (all P<0 . 001 ). Conclusions sB 7-H 3 may control the secretion of IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-36 , and participate in immune response and lung injury after MP infection, which may lead to occurrence and development of RMPP.

ObjectiveTo study the clinical characteristics and laboratory ifndings ofMycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) and EBV infection in children and provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.MethodsOne hundred and twenty two (122) hospitalized children with pathogen detection of MP and EBV double positive in hospitalized children with pneumonia from May 2013 to April 2014 (n=2213) were recruited as mixed infection group. In the mixed infection group, patients were further devided into high EBV mixed infection group if the EBV DNA copies were more than 1.0×104 copies/ml and the low EBV mixed infec-tion group when EBV DNA copies were less than 1.0×104 copies/ml. And another 45 hospitalized children with MP pneumonia were rectuited as control group. Clinical data and laboratory ifndings of all children were collected and analyzed.Results The mixed infection rate of MP and EBV was 5.51% (122/2213). As children getting older, the incidence of mixed infection was increased (χ2=84.08,P<0.001). And the mixed infection incidence in the lobar pneumonia group was signiifcantly higher than the bronchopneumonia group (χ2=37.44,P<0.001). The incidence of ALT and CK-MB elevated, lobar pneumonia, average fever days and hospitalization days in mixed infection with the high EBV copies group were signiifcantly higher than those in the low EBV copies group and the control group (bothP<0.05). The incidence of ALT and CK-MB elevated, average fever days and hos-pitalization days in mixed infection with the high EBV copies group were signiifcantly higher than those of the low EBV copies group and the control group (allP<0.05).ConclusionThe mixed infection of MP and EBV could aggravate the injury both in and out of the lung. Number of EBV copies plays an important role in the degree of injury both inside and outside the lung due to pneumonia with mixed infection of MP and EBV. When a patient with MP pneumonia complains with severe clinical symptoms and obvious injury outside the lung, EBV detection, especially quantitative detection of EBV DNA copies could be beneifcial for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
