The hepatitis B virus (HBV) remains to be a global health threat since the chronic HBV infection may lead to liver cirrhosis or cancer.Current antiviral therapies with nucleoside analogues can inhibit the replication of HBV,but do not disrupt the already existing HBV cccDNA.The newly developed clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-CRISPR-associated 9 (Cas9) system is a powerful tool to target cellular genome DNA for gene editing.In order to investigate the possibility of using CRISPR/Cas9 system to disrupt the HBV DNA templates,we designed eight gRNAs that target the conserved regions of different HBV genotypes,which could significantly inhibit HBV replication both in vitro and in vivo.Moreover,the HBV-specific gRNA/Cas9 could inhibit the replication of HBV of different genotypes in cells and the viral DNA is significantly reduced by single gRNA/Cas9 and cleared by combination of different gRNAs/Cas9.

登革是由蚊媒传播的病毒感染引起的疾病,每年在热带和亚热带地区可造成约3.9亿新增感染病例.目前尚未有批准上市的登革疫苗及抗病毒特效药.相比于传统疫苗,重组多肽疫苗在安全性、免疫反应均衡性以及疫苗改造的灵活性等方面更具优势.登革病毒的包膜蛋白(E蛋白)是登革病毒表面最主要的抗原靶点,因此基于E蛋白的多肽疫苗表现出良好的应用前景.
Prion疾病是一类由朊蛋白错误折叠所引起的可传染的致死性神经退行性疾病,在许多哺乳动物和人身上都有发生,包括疯牛病、羊瘙痒症和人克雅氏病.其发生机制通常认为是错误折叠的病理状态朊病毒蛋白prpSc诱导细胞正常状态朊蛋白prpC转变为prpSc,朊病毒prpSc的积累会导致神经退行性疾病的发生.我们在体外研究了锌离子是如何影响朊蛋白的错误折叠的.
