Abstract: A set of primers and probes for simultaneous detection of Cymbidium mosaic virus (CymMV), Odontoglossum ringspot virus (ORSV), and Cymbidium ringspot virus (CymRSV) and a method for detecting CymMV, ORSV, and CymRSV, along with a method for their detection, are disclosed. The method involves designing multiplex real-time quantitative PCR detection primers and probes for CymMV, ORSV, and CymRSV and applying these primers and probes to the real-time quantitative PCR simultaneous detection of CymMV, ORSV, and CymRSV. It allows for faster detection of CymMV, ORSV, and CymRSV, taking only one-third of the time compared to uniplex real-time quantitative PCR technology, thereby reducing testing costs by approximately ? to ½ for each sample. The primers and probes are highly specific and sensitive, with a sensitivity as low as 1 to 10 copies. It provides an efficient and feasible detection method for early detection and prevention of CymMV, ORSV, and CymRSV.

Abstract: Provided is an Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist (IL-1RN) protein or a variant or analogue thereof, and a fusion protein comprising the following three-parts: the Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist protein or a variant or analogue thereof, a domain for half-life extension and an optional tumor necrosis factor receptor 2, and the preparation method and use thereof. The above-mentioned protein mutant and fusion protein have the effects of extended half-life, improved affinity with interleukin-1 receptor and superior biological activity, and find use in the field of treatment and prevention of inflammatory-associated diseases.

Abstract: Provided is a fusion polypeptide as an antagonist for IL4 and IL13. Also provided is a pharmaceutical composition comprising the fusion polypeptide and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
