SEROLOGICAL SURVEY OF A CAPTIVE MACAQUE COLONY IN CHINA FOR ANTIBODIES TO SIMIAN TYPE-D RETROVIRUSES

Sera from 510 macaques consisting of Macaca mulatta, Macaca assamensis, Macaca fascicularis, Macaca nemestrina, and Macaca arctoides were investigated for antibodies to simian AIDS type D retrovirus (SRV) by ELISA and Western blot with viral antigens purified from supernatants of SRV-1 infected cell cultures. Of these monkeys, 104 were seropositive by ELISA; only 23 were confirmed by Western blot. The true positive reaction to SRV was found in 15 of 463 (3.2%) M. mulatta and eight of eleven (72.7%) M. assamensis.

Pipeline Architecture and Parallel Computation-Based Real-Time Stereovision Tracking System for Surgical Navigation

This paper studies the development of a real-time stereovision system to track multiple infrared markers attached to a surgical instrument. Multiple stages of pipeline in field-programmable gate array (FPGA) are developed to recognize the targets in both left and right image planes and to give each target a unique label. The pipeline architecture includes a smoothing filter, an adaptive threshold module, a connected component labeling operation, and a centroid extraction process. A parallel distortion correction method is proposed and implemented in a dual-core DSP. A suitable kinematic model is established for the moving targets, and a novel set of parallel and interactive computation mechanisms is proposed to position and track the targets, which are carried out by a cross-computation method in a dual-core DSP. The proposed tracking system can track the 3-D coordinate, velocity, and acceleration of four infrared markers with a delay of 9.18 ms. Furthermore, it is capable of tracking a maximum of 110 infrared markers without frame dropping at a frame rate of 60 f/s. The accuracy of the proposed system can reach the scale of 0.37 mm RMS along the x- and y-directions and 0.45 mm RMS along the depth direction (the depth is from 0.8 to 0.45 m). The performance of the proposed system can meet the requirements of applications such as surgical navigation, which needs high real time and accuracy capability.

TRIM5α基因的分子进化及AIDS 免疫治疗相关腺病毒载体的构建

本文包括两方面的研究工作。第一部分对TRIM5α基因在灵长类动物中的分 子进化进行了详尽的研究，希望能从分子进化的角度认识该基因在灵长类动物抵 抗病毒感染尤其是在限制HIV-1 感染过程中所起的作用，并希望能够从中寻找适 合用于AIDS 基因治疗的基因。第二部分构建了艾滋病治疗性DC 疫苗相关的腺 病毒载体，包括表达HIV-1 gp120 基因、表达HIV-1 gp41 基因、表达HSP70 基 因以及仅表达绿色荧光蛋白基因的重组腺病毒，为利用HIV-1 抗原刺激的DC 免 疫治疗AIDS 的研究奠定了基础。 在长期的HIV-1 和AIDS 研究中，人们发现很多种旧大陆猴不能被HIV-1 感 染，而旧大陆猴中的平顶猴却对HIV-1 有易感性，并且对SIV 的感染也表现出较 其它旧大陆猴更为严重的症状，TRIM5α基因的发现解释了这一“历史之谜”。人 们发现旧大陆猴的TRIM5α基因具有很强的抗HIV-1 的功能，是旧大陆猴抵抗 HIV-1 感染必须的免疫因子；并且进一步证明TRIM5α是灵长类动物中普遍存在 的、具有抗多种逆转录病毒功能的天然免疫因子。我们通过对TRIM5α基因在灵 长类动物中的分子进化研究发现，证明该基因在进化过程中表现出很强的达尔文 正向选择作用，尤其是其负责识别逆转录病毒衣壳蛋白的SPRY 结构域。TRIM5 α基因表现出的正向选择很可能是灵长类动物在长期的进化过程中反复被病毒 感染的选择压力造成的，这也从另一个方面证明TRIM5α基因是一个普遍存在的、 具有抗病毒功能的天然免疫因子。对不同灵长类动物的TRIM5α基因序列分析发 现，该基因的序列变化很大，这可能是不同灵长类动物被HIV-1 感染后表现不同 症状的原因；基于密码子的中性检测证明，TRIM5α基因SPRY 结构域上第347、 354、552 位氨基酸表现出很强的正向选择，说明这些位点可能与其抗病毒功能 关系紧密。另外，我们发现平顶猴的TRIM5α基因与CypA 基因以一种新的方式 融合，这种融合方式不同于鹰猴中该基因与CypA 基因的融合，而且与具有较强抗HIV-1 功能的恒河猴的TRIM5α基因比较，平顶猴的TRIM5α基因在几个与其 抗病毒功能紧密相关的位点上的氨基酸也发生了变化，这可能是其被HIV-1 和 SIV 感染后表现出较其它旧大陆猴更为严重症状的原因。 将经过HIV-1 抗原刺激的DC 回输到HIV-1 感染者体内可以诱导产生较强的 抗HIV-1 细胞免疫反应，这种免疫反应理论上可以治疗AIDS，而且对HARRT 治 疗能够产生很好的协同作用；HSP70 蛋白可以提高DC 对抗原的加工和呈递。为 了检测经HIV-1 抗原刺激的DC 免疫治疗AIDS 的实际效果，同时检验通过HSP70 增强DC 对HIV-1 抗原的加工和呈递功能，发现并解决这一治疗方案存在的问题， 我们首先从HIV-1 的基因组及带有HSP70 基因的质粒上克隆了gp120、gp41 和 HSP70 基因，测序及序列分析证明所克隆的基因没有发生影响表达的突变。然后 我们分别构建了表达有关基因的重组腺病毒载体。在荧光显微镜下可以观察到感 染后的细胞内绿色荧光蛋白报告基因的表达，证明成功构建了四种重组腺病毒， 而PCR 扩增也证明在其中三种重组腺病毒的基因组上确实分别带有gp120、gp41、 HSP70 基因。同时我们还构建了不表达外源基因的重组腺病毒，作为未来实验中 的对照载体。未来的研究工作包括目的基因表达检测，重组腺病毒感染DC 及腺 病毒感染DC 功能分析等。
