Objective:To analyze the protective effect of a respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine based on bacterial outer membrane vesicle (OMV) in mice.Methods:The pre-fusion protein (preF) of RSV was linked to the surface of OMV through the transmembrane protein cytolysin A (ClyA) to form the nanovaccine OMV-preF. The morphological characteristics of OMV and OMV-preF were observed under a transmission electron microscope. OMV-preF was intramuscularly injected into BALB/c mice and the elicited humoral and cellular immune responses were evaluated. The protective effect of OMV-preF was assessed by challenging the immunized mice with RSV Long strain. One-way analysis of variance and Tukey test were used for statistical analysis.Results:The results showed that preF was stably expressed in OMV, and both OMV-preF and OMV exhibited a double-layer vesicle structures under the microscope. OMV-preF could significantly activate the cellular and humoral immune responses in mice, causing a significant increase in CD8 + T cells and CD19 + B cells as well as a significant increase in the serum level of specific IgG. The neutralizing antibodies produced in the immunized mice could significantly inhibit the replication of RSV Long strain in vivo. Conclusions:The nanovaccine OMV-preF can induce high-level humoral and cellular immune responses, and the antibodies produced following immunization can effectively inhibit viral replication. This study provides a new strategy for RSV subunit vaccines.

Objective:To isolate and culture WU polyomavirus (WUPyV), and to analyze the genome-wide evolutionary patterns, homology and population dynamics.Methods:Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the nasopharyngeal aspirate samples of hospitalized children with respiratory tract infection in Beijing Friendship Hospital during 2020 to 2022. Primary human airway epithelial cells cultured at the air-liquid interface were used to isolate and culture WUPyV. Whole genome sequence of the isolated strain was obtained by Sanger sequencing. For phylogenetic and evolutionary dynamics analysis, the whole genome was compared with the published whole genome sequences in GenBank database.Results:The detection rate of WUPyV was 4.7% (31/659) during 2020 to 2022, and a clinical strain BJ0593 of WUPyV type Ⅲc was successfully isolated. The homology of the whole genome and gene fragments of WUPyV was high. The average evolutionary rate of VP2 gene was about 1.256×10 -4 substitution/site every year, and the population dynamics of WUPyV tended to be flat in the last decade. Conclusions:This study successfully isolated a clinical WUPyV type Ⅲ strain for the first time, which provided the basis for further investigation on the molecular evolution and pathogenicity of WUPyV.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of three laboratory routine disinfection methods on influenza virus inactivation.Methods:The physical method of ultraviolet irradiation and two chemical methods of ethanol and "84 disinfectant" were used to inactivate the influenza virus respectively. After disinfecting the virus samples at different times or concentrations, MDCK cells were inoculated and the inactivation effect of influenza virus was identified by observing cytopathic effect (CPE).Results:When the influenza virus was irradiated by ultraviolet light for ≥1 min, treated with 75% ethanol for 0.25-32 min, the effective chlorine concentration of "84 disinfectant" was ≥400 mg/L, and the influenza virus was disinfected at room temperature for ≥1 min, no virus infectivity could be detected under the three conditions.Conclusions:The condition of inactivating influenza virus by routine disinfection methods in laboratory was explored, which provided reference data for establishing the protection specifications and the emergency treatment plans for influenza virus laboratories.

Objective:
To express envelope protein of ZIKA virus in baculovirus expression system.
Methods:
Full-length E gene of ZIKA virus was obtained by DNA synthesis and inserted into vector pFastBac1. The constructed recombinant baculovirus transfer vector pFB1-E was transformed to competent DH10Bac cells. The obtained skeleton plasmid rBacmid-E was transfected to sf9 cells, and the constructed recombinant baculovirus rBac-E was determined for titer, for insertion of E gene by PCR, and for expression of E protein by IFA and Western blotting.
Results:
PCR proved that skeleton plasmid rBacmid-E was constructed correctly. The titer of rBac-E of passage 3 was 2.58×105pfu/ml. The genome of infected cells virus was extracted, the gene band at length of 3 830 bp was observed after PCR amplification. Indirect immunofluorescence of the infected cells showed the specific green fluorescence, 55×103specific band was determined by Western blotting identification in the cell pellet of the infected recombinant baculovirus rBac-E.
Conclusions
The recombinant baculovirus with E gene of ZIKA virus was successfully constructed, which laid a foundation of further study on the function of E protein and the vaccine of ZIKA virus.
