To construct a recombinant fowl adenovirus 4(FAdV-4)expressing the Cap protein of goose astrovirus genotype 2(GoAstV-2),the expression cassette of Cap gene was inserted into the natural 1 966 bp deletion region of the FAdV-4 genome in the infectious clone p15A-cm-FAdV4-HNJZ.The resulted recombinant plasmid p15A-cm-FAdV4-HNJZ-Cap/GoAstV-2 was linearized with restriction enzyme and transfected into chicken hepatoma cell line(LMH)to rescue the recombinant FAdV-4 expressing the Cap protein of GoAstV-2,rF Ad V4-Cap/GoAstV-2.After 15 passages in LMH cells,the recombinant rFAdV4-Cap/GoAstV-2 was identified by PCR using primers flanking the insertion site of the Cap gene expression cassette and using viral genome DNA extracted from rFAdV4-Cap/GoAstV-2 infected LMH cells as template.LMH cells were in-fected with 15th passage rFAdV4-Cap/GoAstV-2 and indirect immunofluorescence was performed with a polyclonal antibody against Cap protein as the primary antibody.Western blot was carried out with lysates of rFAdV4-Cap/GoAstV-2 infected LMH cells.The in vitro replication dynamic of the 15th passage of the rFAdV4-Cap/GoAstV-2 was also investigated in LMH cells.The results demonstrated that the Cap gene of GoAstV-2 was presented in the genome of the recombinant vi-rus rF AdV4-Cap/Go Ast V-2,and could be expressed stably.The prepared recombinant virus in this study will lay a foundation for developing inactivated bivalent vaccine candidate against co-in-fection of FAdV-4 and GoAstV-2 in goose.

Respiratory microbiome is extensively involved in human life activities and affects lung health and disease states through metabolism and immune regulation. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing and other methods, it is obvious that the diversity and the changes in the structure of respiratory microbiome and the dominant proliferation of pathogens are strongly related to the occurrence, development and clinical prognosis of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). The mechanism by which respiratory microbiota promotes the clearance of pathogens may include the following aspects: ① pre-stimulating innate immune system to increase the number of immune effector cells; ② regulating pattern recognition receptor (PRR) to moderately promote the production of cytokines; ③ inducing the differentiation of neutrophils into specific subtypes and increasing the expression of antimicrobial genes; ④ producing free fatty acids and organic compounds that are capable of positively modulating the immune system. In conclusion, intervention of microbiome is beneficial to VAP patients. Therefore, this review illustrates the changes of respiratory flora in VAP and its effect on host immunity. At the same time, based on the review of the adjuvant treatment of VAP with probiotics, we put forward the prospect of respiratory commensal bacteria as a new clinical probiotic, in order to deepen the clinical understanding of the role of respiratory flora in VAP, and then provide new ideas for the evaluation of treatment and prognosis.
