27 kDa Fasciola gigantica Glycoprotein for the Diagnosis of Prepatent Fasciolosis in Cattle

An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using 27 kDa glycoprotein of Fasciola gigantica has been evaluated for its potential use in the diagnosis of bovine fasciolosis. Following experimental infection of rabbits, F. gigantica infection-induced antibodies were isolated and later used as ligands in affinity chromatography for isolation of infection-induced antibody-specific proteins. Among the five infection-specific proteins isolated, a glycoprotein of 27 kDa was later isolated by second-step purification using concanavalin A matrix. In crossbred cattle receiving different doses of infection (100, 200 and 400 metacercariae), the anti-27 kDa antibodies were detected as early as the 2nd week post infection. No direct correlation between initial dose, antibody response and fluke establishment was recorded. No cross-reaction was noted with the sera of goats experimentally infected with Paramphistomum epiclitum. ELISA with the 27 kDa glycoprotein could be a feasible diagnostic tool for the early detection of bovine fasciolosis.     

B亚群禽白血病病毒SDAU09C2株的TCID50与p27抗原之间的相关性研究

为了研究B亚群禽白血病病毒(ALV-B)的半数细胞培养物感染量(TCID₅₀)与p27抗原的酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)的S/P值之间的相关性,本试验将ALV-B SDAU09C2 株接种鸡胚成纤维细胞(CEF细胞),换维持液后连续10 d取样,检测10 d的TCID₅₀值与p27抗原的S/P值之间的相关性;同时,将该毒株在DF-1细胞系上传代至20代,取其中的第1、5、10、15和20代分别进行TCID₅₀滴度的测定和p27抗原检测。结果表明,在CEF细胞上接种的ALV-B SDAU09C2株连续10 d的TCID₅₀值与p27抗原之间存在显著的正相关(r=0.94002;P<0.0001);在DF-1细胞系上传的不同代数之间也呈显著正相关(r=0.96449;P=0.0080)。由此可推测ALV-B的TCID₅₀与p27抗原呈显著正相关,可以用ELISA法测得的p27抗原的S/P值来估测病毒的TCID₅₀值。     

Immunoregulatory effects of Taishan Pinus massoniana pollen polysaccharide on chicks co-infected with avian leukosis virus and Bordetella avium early in ovo

In recent years, co-infection of chicken embryos with immunosuppressive viruses and bacteria occurs with an annually increasing frequency. Consequently, studies on new and safe immunoregulators, especially plant polysaccharides, have become a popular topic in the poultry industry. In the present study, we selected 300 specific pathogen free embryonated eggs, which were injected with subgroup B avian leukosis virus (ALV-B) and Bordetella avium (B. avium) to establish an artificial co-infection model. The chicks that hatched from these co-infected embryonated eggs were treated with Taishan Pinus massoniana pollen polysaccharide (TPPPS). Results indicated that relevant indices in the co-infection group were significantly lower than that in B. avium-only group. Furthermore, pathogenicity of B. avium was exacerbated, with the chicks exhibiting decreased body weights. The TPPPS groups exhibited gradual improvements in immune function and developmental status. Therefore, in terms of improving immunologic function and production performance, TPPPS could be used as immunoregulator for immune responses.

森林草莓FveD27的表达特性和功能

【目的】新型植物激素独脚金内酯是调控植物分枝发育的关键因子,但独脚金内酯在草莓生长发育中的作用尚不清楚。揭示森林草莓（Fragaria vesca）中独脚金内酯生物合成关键基因DWARF27（D27）的表达特性及主要功能,探索FveD27在草莓分枝以及生长发育过程中的作用,为研究草莓植株构型奠定理论基础。【方法】本研究选用森林草莓作为试验材料,利用RT-PCR方法克隆FveD27的编码区序列,利用MEGA 6.0分析草莓FveD27与苹果、拟南芥等物种中D27的系统进化关系;构建FveD27与GFP的融合载体,利用注射烟草叶片的方法对FveD27进行亚细胞定位分析;通过qRT-PCR技术对FveD27在森林草莓不同器官的表达水平进行定量分析,同时构建FveD27启动子与GUS融合表达载体并通过农杆菌介导法将其转化到森林草莓中,利用GUS染色进一步分析FveD27的表达特性;构建FveD27过表达载体并通过农杆菌介导的叶盘法进行稳定遗传转化,获得FveD27过表达草莓株系。【结果】从森林草莓中克隆出编码区长度为789 bp的FveD27序列;烟草的亚细胞定位结果表明FveD27定位在叶绿体;FveD27在森林草莓组织器官中的表达量由高至低依次为幼叶、茎尖、叶柄、成熟叶、根;克隆出长度为1 670 bp的FveD27启动子序列,GUS活性分析结果显示转pFveD27::GUS融合基因草莓植株的幼叶和芽等部位GUS活性较强,而成熟叶与叶柄部位GUS活性较弱,根部几乎无GUS活性,GUS染色分析揭示的基因表达结果与qRT-PCR结果相符;构建了FveD27过表达载体并通过农杆菌介导获得了过表达FveD27的草莓转基因株系,表型调查结果表明过表达FveD27能够显著抑制新茎分枝的形成,同时增加花序数量。【结论】FveD27具有调控森林草莓新茎分枝发育、花序数量等功能。研究结果可为调控草莓新茎分枝数量和产量等提供新思路。

鸡卵泡颗粒层组蛋白H3K4me3和H3K27me3的表达研究

卵母细胞成熟过程受组蛋白H3K4me3(trimethylation of lysine 4 on histone 3)和H3K27me3(trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone 3)及其相关的甲基化和去甲基化酶的调控，因此考虑对鸡的卵泡发育也存在一定的影响。选取“苏禽3号”配套系第一母本为研究对象，采用Western blot法探究组蛋白H3K4me3和H3K27me3在鸡卵泡不同发育阶段颗粒层中蛋白的表达模式。结果表明：在苏禽3号卵泡颗粒层中，组蛋白H3K4me3在卵泡发育不同阶段表达模式呈降低→升高→降低→升高的波浪形趋势，波浪变化较为平缓，在F5、F2和F1 3个表达高点的表达量与SWF(small white follicle)、LWF(large white follicle)、SYF(small yellow follicle)和F3 4个表达低点的表达差异显著（P<0.05）。组蛋白H3K27me3在不同发育阶段表达模式亦呈波浪形表达趋势，波浪变化起伏较明显，在SWF、SYF和F33个表达高点的表达量与F5、F4、F1和F2 4个表达低点的表达差异显著（P<0.05）。相关性分析显示，组蛋白H3K4me3与H3K27me3在不同发育阶段卵泡颗粒细胞中的表达呈较强的负线性相关(R=-0.808，P=0.000)。结果提示：组蛋白H3K4me3和H3K27me3在不同发育阶段卵泡颗粒层中的表达具有组织差异性，呈负相关的动态修饰性，可能共同协调卵泡生长过程中各基因的表达与功能，研究结果为鸡繁殖性状调控机理提供了理论依据。
