Oncolytic Vaccinia Virus Carrying Aphrocallistes vastus Lectin (oncoVV-AVL) Enhances Inflammatory Response in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells

Aphrocallistes vastus lectin (AVL) is a C-type marine lectin derived from sponges. Our previous study demonstrated that oncolytic vaccinia virus carrying AVL (oncoVV-AVL) significantly enhanced the cytotoxicity of oncoVV in cervical cancer, colorectal cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma through the activation of Ras/ERK, MAPK/ERK and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways. In this study, the inflammatory response induced by oncoVV-AVL in a hepatocellular carcinoma cell (HCC) model was investigated. The results showed that oncoVV-AVL increased the levels of inflammatory cytokines including IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α through activating the AP-1 signaling pathway in HCC. This study provides novel insights into the utilization of lectin AVL in the field of cancer therapy.

PVX病毒载体介导2种马铃薯Y病毒科病毒VPg蛋白表达诱导烟草叶片系统坏死的研究

芜菁花叶病毒（Turnip mosaic virus, TuMV）和槟榔坏死环斑病毒（Areca plam necrotic ringspot virus, ANRSV）是马铃薯Y病毒科（Potyviridae）中分别可诱导十字花科作物和槟榔产生坏死病症的2种不同属病毒。VPg（Viral protein genome linked）作为与马铃薯Y病毒科病毒基因组5′端的结合蛋白,在病毒复制、翻译和运动等侵染过程中发挥重要作用。本研究利用In-Fusion克隆策略分别构建了可表达3′端融合Strep蛋白标签序列的ANRSV和TuMV VPg全长编码基因的马铃薯X病毒（Potato virus X, PVX）载体pPVX-VPg-AR和pPVX-VPg-Tu。通过农杆菌渗透注射接种本生烟（Nicotiana benthamiana）,利用RT-PCR、Strep蛋白标签亲和层析和Western blot等方法证明了PVX病毒载体能够介导VPg-AR和VPg-Tu蛋白在本生烟中系统表达,且发现这2种VPg蛋白的过量表达诱导本生烟叶片产生了不同程度的系统性坏死病症。进一步采用DAB和NBT染色,在产生坏死症状叶片中检测到大量活性氧（reactive oxygen species, ROS）的积累。因此,推测VPg可能是TuMV和ANRSV诱发植物病症产生的一个决定因子,为后续研究这2种病毒诱导症状形成机制奠定了基础。     

侵染广西番茄的番茄黄化曲叶病毒的分子鉴定

番茄黄化曲叶病毒病是番茄生产上的毁灭性病害,严重影响番茄产量及品质。2019年从广西百色市采集疑似番茄黄化曲叶病叶片样品,采用滚环扩增(RCA)及基因克隆等方法,获得了4个烟粉虱传双生病毒的全基因序列,4个分离物的全长序列分别为2 776、2 781、2 752、2 781 bp,均编码6个开放阅读框;核苷酸相似性比较发现,4个分离物彼此间的相似性均在90%以上,与已报道的番茄黄化曲叶病毒Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV)各分离物间的相似性也在91%以上;系统进化分析表明,TYLCV广西分离物BS-2和BS-4与TYLCV-Hunan、BS-1和BS-3与TYLCV-YN6553等分离物处于独立的小分支,说明TYLCV广西分离物与TYLCV-Hunan、TYLCV-YN6553具有较近的亲缘关系。本研究首次报道TYLCV在广西发生。     

河南省烟草病毒的小RNA测序检测

To identify viruses in Henan tobacco-planting areas, from 2015 to 2017 and 2019, 288 symptomatic tobacco samples were collected and then subjected to small RNA sequencing. Results showed that at least 7 viruses were detected from these samples which including four previously reported viruses, cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), potato virus Y (PVY) and tobacco vein banding mosaic virus (TVBMV). Other three viruses, wild tomato mosaic virus (WTMV), brassica yellows virus (BrYV), and cycas necrotic stunt virus (CNSV) were firstly detected in Henan province. However, tobacco etch virus (TEV) and tobacco ringspot virus (TRSV) were not detected from these samples. In addition, CMV, TMV, PVY, TVBMV, and BrYV were the dominant viruses infecting tobacco in Henan Province.     

烟草丛顶病毒RNA依赖RNA聚合酶(RdRp)介导的体外复制体系

通过重叠PCR扩增得到烟草丛顶病毒(Tobacco bushy top virus,TBTV)中国分离物RdRp的编码序列,构建以pMALC2X为基础载体的原核表达载体pMAL-TB-RdRp。0.5 mM IPTG诱导可特异性表达分子量约为120 kDa的MBP-RdRp融合蛋白。温度梯度实验显示,18℃下诱导表达的MBP-RdRp融合蛋白的可溶性比例较高,约17%;经亲和层析纯化的MBPRdRp可特异性识别TBTV正链和负链的3'末端序列,催化体外复制;对正负链的3'末端的体外复制效率存在差别,识别负链3'末端的体外复制效率明显高于正链3'末端。本研究创建的TBTV RdRp介导的体外复制体系为进一步研究TBTV基因组复制调控奠定了基础。

Identification of divergent variants of Grapevine virus A

Eight isolates of Grapevine virus A (GVA), which induced different symptoms in leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana, were recovered from various grapevines. The dsRNA patterns of two isolates, which consistently induced mild vein clearing (referred here as mild isolates of GVA) were similar, but different from those of other isolates of GVA. Analysis based on overall nucleotide (nt) sequence identity in the 3 terminal part of the GVA genome, comprising part of ORF3 (putative movement protein, MP), entire ORF4 (capsid protein, CP), entire ORF5 and part of 3 UTR, revealed that GVA isolates separate into three groups (I, II, III), sharing 91.0–99.8% nt sequence identity within groups and 78.0–89.3% nt sequence identity between groups. Mild isolates of the virus were group III and shared only 78.0–79.6% nt sequence identity with the other isolates. The comparison of predicted amino acid sequences for MP and CP revealed many amino acid alterations, revealing distinct local net charges of these proteins for mild isolates of the virus. Based on both conserved and divergent nt regions in the CP and ORF5, oligonucleotide primers were designed for the simultaneous RT-PCR detection of all GVA isolates and for the specific detection of the most divergent virus variants represented here by mild isolates of the virus.     

灰飞虱体内水稻条纹病毒的检测

为评价灰飞虱体内水稻条纹病毒检测方法的适用范围,利用已经制备的水稻条纹病毒(Rice stripe virus,RSV)的多克隆抗体SV21和单克隆抗体3B9,采用多孔板间接ELISA、DIBA和Western blotting等三种方法进行单头灰飞虱Laodelphax striatellus Fallén(SBPH)体内RSV检测。结果表明,检测灵敏度以多孔板间接ELISA最高,其次为DIBA,Western blotting最低;用单克隆抗体3B9检测灵敏度高于多克隆抗体SV21。RT-PCR、IC-RT-PCR和DB-RT-PCR三种方法中,RT-PCR对单头灰飞虱稀释到400倍可检测到病毒;IC-RT-PCR在多克隆抗体SV21稀释浓度大于500倍时检测不出RSV,单克隆抗体3B9稀释浓度大于800倍时检测不到RSV;DB-RT-PCR检测结果显示,单头灰飞虱在稀释400倍后均无阳性反应。
