Article Abstract
Aim: To express G2 fragment of M segment and 0.7 kb fragment of S segment and several CTL epitopes of S segment in adenovirus expression system and investigate the immunological properties of hantaan virus chimeric gene.
Methods: The recombinant adenovirus was constructed and the recombinant adenovirus was obtained after transfecting HEK293 cells. The titer of it was determined and the expressed product was detected by IFA and ELISA. Further, BALB/c mice were vaccinated by the recombinant adenovirus and the immune response was tested by ELISA, microcell-culture neutralizing experiment, T lymphocyte proliferation test (MTT assay) and cell-mediated cytotoxicity assay.
Results: The recombinant adenovirus AG2S0.7CTL1, AG2S0.7CTL2 were constructed successfully and the titer of it was about 10¹⁰-10¹¹ pfu/mL. The expressed protein could be recognized by the hantaan virus NP-specific mAb and glycoprotein G2-specific mAb. The recombinant adenovirus containing CTL epitopes could elicit effectively the cellular immune response aimed to the NP and GP of hantaan virus in BALB/c mice.
Conclusion: The recombinant adenovirus containing CTL epitopes could induce the higher cellular immune response than the group that not containing CTL epitopes.

The chimpanzee adenovirus-vectored vaccine developed by the University of Oxford (ChAdOx1 nCoV-19) showed good stability when stored in refrigerator. However, the vaccine manufacturer prefers its transportation in frozen condition. Data regarding the stability of the vaccine after exposure to repeated freezing processes have not been explored yet.

Many adenovirus (AdV) species have been isolated from human and non-human primates. Here we describe the isolation of a new AdV from a western lowland gorilla held captive in a zoo. Analysis of the genome sequence demonstrated that this virus is a member of the Mastadenovirus genus, but markedly distinct from all previously described species.

Three Experiments were conducted to explore whether zrt/irt-like protein 3 (ZIP3) and ZIP5 were directly involved in zinc (Zn) absorption as Zn proteinate with moderate chelation strength (ZnP M) in broiler primary duodenal epithelial cells. In Experiment 1, siRNAs against ZIP3 or ZIP5 were transfected into cells, and the most effective siRNA was selected. In Experiment 2, with or without the most potent siRNA, cells were exposed to a basal medium without Zn (Control) or added with 400 umol/L of Zn as Zn sulfate (ZnS) or ZnP M for 120 min.

In this millennium, Marburgvirus (MARV) outbreaks with very high mortality but still small case numbers (< 400) were observed with increasing frequency in Africa. Ecologists identified Egyptian Rousettus bats (ERB) as viral reservoir species causing occasional zoonotic spillover events, mostly in humans intruding into their cave habitats as miners or tourists. So far only short human-to-human transmission chains have been documented.

Dendritic cells (DCs) serve a pivotal and diverse role in the modulation of transplant immunity, wherein alterations in their maturation state influence the balance between promoting immunotolerance and exacerbating inflammatory responses. Recent studies have revealed a spectrum of novel mechanisms through which absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) regulates the functions of immune cells. However, the impact of AIM2 on the regulatory functions of dendritic cells in alloimmunity has not been thoroughly investigated.
