Chinese urban migrants' sense of place: Emotional attachment,identity formation,and place dependence in the city and community of Guangzhou

In this paper, we study urban migrants' sense of place in Guangzhou, China, focusing on the structural relations between place attachment, identification and dependence as the three key place dimensions. Through both quantitative structural equation modelling and qualitative analysis of in‐depth interviews data, our research suggests that migrants' sense of place demonstrates complex relationships between the three registers of emotional attachment, identity formation and functional dependence. The construction of sense of place is also related to the personal experiences of living as urban ‘outsiders’. Our research also reveals a striking difference between the city and community levels in terms of the ways in which migrants' sense of place is constructed. Urban migrants tend to exploit the functional utilities of microscopic urban spaces to meet their demands for recreation, education and socialisation. On the other hand, their sense of place to the city is largely compromised by their attachment to the hometown and conditioned by their personal identification to the city.

Arachidonic acid immunoregulation in lambs persistently infected with border disease virus

To evaluate arachidonic acid-related immunoregulatory mechanisms during long-term persistent pestivirus infection, we measured plasma contents of leukotriene C4 (LTC4), prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) and their plasma fatty acid (FA) precursor, arachidonic acid (AA), in six lambs with congenital border disease (BD). Significantly elevated average plasma LTC4 during the first half year of life was associated with increased PDG2 when compared to uninfected control lambs. Significantly elevated total plasma esterified AA stores suggest an effective BDV-mediated prostenoid immunostimulation. However, at 1 yr old, prostenoid secretion had fallen to normal (LTC4) or below normal (PGD2) levels. In contrast, there remained significantly elevated plasma esterified AA, present as available substrate for formation of these anti-viral immunoregulatory agents. These results suggested that preventing mobilization of AA from lipid stores for effective immune responses may be a viral strategy of BD virus that is associated with long term border disease effects.     

传染性支气管炎病毒结构蛋白免疫鸡对CD4+CD8+T淋巴细胞亚群的影响

为了比较传染性支气管炎病毒3种主要结构蛋白免疫鸡后对CD4+、CD8+T淋巴细胞亚群的不同影响.本试验以pVAX1载体为携带工具,制备分别含有IBV主要结构蛋白基因的质粒免疫健康雏鸡,采用流式细胞仪(FACS)对免疫鸡外周血中CD4+、CD8+T淋巴细胞数进行检测.结果显示:各试验组间,携带N蛋白基因的质粒在免疫后3周内CD4+T淋巴细胞数和CD8+T淋巴细胞数均高于其他组,且差异极显著(P＜0.01).由此可见,IBV的N蛋白可明显诱导CD8+T淋巴细胞的CTL免疫作用和CD4+T淋巴细胞的辅助性免疫作用,其细胞免疫原性高于S1蛋白和M蛋白.     

马立克氏病病毒编码的类白细胞介素8研究进展

马立克氏病(Marek's disease,MD)是由马立克氏病病毒(MDV)引起的一种淋巴细胞增生性肿瘤疾病，病毒的许多成分参与了致肿瘤过程。最近的研究结果发现，MDV编码一种类似于白细胞介素-8的产物，称之为病毒性白介素-8（VIL-8)。这种vIL8与人类IL-8在结构上十分相似，但它对异嗜细胞的趋化作用微弱，而对外周血单核细胞有很好的趋化性，且在MDV溶细胞感染中起重要作用。vIL-8是否能象人类IL-8具有激活单核细胞、增强其吞噬作用、增进毛细血管增生和肿瘤生成等功能尚有待探索，本文就有关vIL-8的作用及作用机制进行了讨论。     

副溶血弧菌VP-5的分离鉴定及其与鲈鱼免疫信号通路相互关系研究

为探讨福建省漳州市盛明养殖场鲈鱼的致病菌及其与鲈鱼免疫信号通路的相互关系,从而可以预防和治疗该疾病。解剖患病鲈鱼肝脏组织后划线培养分离纯化了致病菌VP-5。显微镜观察该致病菌VP-5形态为球杆状,弧形,有单鞭毛,运动活跃,革兰阴性菌。在VITEK-32全自动微生物分析仪鉴定后,该致病菌对酪氨酸、葡萄糖、甘露醇等反应阳性,对蔗糖,阿拉伯糖和棉子糖等反应阴性。分析了该致病菌16SrRNA和tdh1基因序列,发现其与副溶血弧菌的亲缘关系非常接近。综合后鉴定致病菌VP-5为副溶血弧菌。并研究了副溶血弧菌VP-5侵染鲈鱼后寄主免疫信号通路基因cd63/cxcr4/il-8的表达水平差异。鲈鱼腹腔注射感染副溶血弧菌VP-5,感染后0-96h解剖鲈鱼肝脏组织和表皮组织。采用Trizol试剂盒抽提鲈鱼总RNA,反转录后生成cDNA。利用实时荧光定量PCR技术对鲈鱼免疫信号通路基因cd63/cxcr4/il-8表达水平进行测定。鲈鱼受到副溶血弧菌VP-5感染后,免疫信号通路基因cd63/cxcr4/il-8在鲈鱼肝脏组织的表达量12h和24h时与对照组相比较差异显著(P<0.05);在表皮组织的表达量在24h和36h时与对照组相比较差异显著(P<0.05)。证实鲈鱼肝脏组织免疫信号通路基因的表达与副溶血弧菌VP-5的感染正相关,相对于表皮组织反应更快。因此鲈鱼的免疫信号通路基因cd63/cxcr4/il-8积极反应于致病菌,这些基因的快速表达会引发鲈鱼自身免疫应答,增强其抵抗致病菌的能力。

Cytokine response of porcine cell lines to Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium and its hilA and ssrA mutants

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is a facultative intracellular bacterium which can infect and colonize pigs. After contact with enterocytes and macrophages, S. Typhimurium induces production of cytokines thus triggering the innate immune response. In this study we evaluated the cytokine response of two porcine cell lines, IPI-2I and 3D4/31, of epithelial or macrophage origins, respectively, to the wild-type S. Typhimurium and its hilA and ssrA mutants. We observed that the 3D4/31 cell line essentially did not respond to S. Typhimurium infection when a medium with foetal calf serum was used. However when the 3D4 cell line was incubated overnight in the presence of porcine serum, it efficiently responded to the wild-type strain and the ssrA mutant but not to the noninvasive hilA mutant as measured by mRNA quantification of TNF-alpha, IL-8 and GM-CSF by the real-time RT-PCR. In IPI-2I, all the cytokines were also induced by the wild-type S. Typhimurium and the ssrA mutant although the induction of TNF-alpha was lower than that induced by the wild-type strain. The hilA mutant was unable to induce any of the cytokines tested. The ssrA mutant can therefore be considered as more suitable for further vaccine development as the stimulation of innate immune response is important for animal protection against a challenge with virulent strains.
