Article Abstract

Objective: To establish a kind of simple method for identifying mumps virus gene: one-step reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, RT-PCR).

Methods: To design primer in both sides of SH gene, and then to do the sensitivity and specificity test for the RT-PCR method.

Results: At least 10(0.7) TCID50 mumps virus can be detected by this method. 5 strains of mumps virus can be detected and 4 strains of non-mumps virus including measles and rubella virus can't be detected by this method.

Conclusions: The one-step RT-PCR method is a rapid and simple method for identifying mumps virus gene.

Mumps virus infection triggers early pro-inflammatory responses and impairs Leydig and Sertoli cell function in an ex vivo human testis model.

Study Question: What is the direct effect of mumps virus (MuV) replication within the human testis on the tissue innate immune responses and testicular cell functions?

Summary Answer: MuV induces an early pro-inflammatory response in the human testis ex vivo and infects both Leydig cells and Sertoli cells, which drastically alters testosterone and inhibin B production.

What Is Known Already: Despite widespread vaccination efforts, orchitis remains a significant complication of MuV infection, especially in young men, which potentially results in infertility in up to 87% of patients with bilateral orchitis. Our understanding of MuV pathogenesis in the human testis has been limited by the lack of relevant animal models, impairing the development of effective treatments.

SUMO-modified Tripartite Motif Protein 28 (TRIM28; KAP1) plays a crucial role in repressing endogenous retroelement (ERE) transcription. We previously provided evidence that loss of SUMO-modified TRIM28 triggered by influenza A virus (IAV) infection promotes activation of host antiviral immunity via a mechanism involving derepression of EREs and production of immunostimulatory RNAs. While the IAV NS1 protein might limit consequences of such activation via its dsRNA-binding activity, we hypothesized that other human pathogenic viruses could have evolved more direct strategies to counteract this potential ERE-based defense system.

Mumps is a vaccine-preventable disease. Following Beijing's implementation of a three-dose MMR vaccination strategy, incidence rates declined significantly. However, the current 21-d quarantine period lacks evidence-based support, resulting in low compliance and conflicts between healthcare providers and patients.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by the destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells, resulting in lifelong insulin dependence. While genetic susceptibility-particularly human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II alleles-is a major risk factor, accumulating evidence implicates viral infections as potential environmental triggers in disease onset and progression. This narrative review synthesizes current findings on the role of viral pathogens in T1DM pathogenesis.

Objective: This study evaluated trends in population immunity against measles, rubella, mumps, and varicella in Suqian City (2005-2024) using serological surveys (2019-2024) and incidence data, incorporating participants with known/unknown vaccination statuses to explore immunity dynamics amid evolving policies, and inform public health planning.

Methods: Serum samples from 541 (2019) and 506 (2024) healthy participants were analyzed for virus-specific IgG antibodies using ELISA. Disease incidence data were obtained from China's National Notifiable Disease Reporting System.
