19、astfed by infected mothers catch the virus. Tests show, though, that HIV is indeed present in breast milk, so these children are exposed to the virus multiple times daily for the first several months of their lives.Now, a group of scientists and doctors from Duke University has figured outwhy these
20、babies dont get infected. Human breast milk naturally contains a protein calledTenascin Cthat neutralizes HIV and, in most cases, prevents it from being passed from mother to child. Eventually, they say, the protein could potentially be valuable as an HIV-fighting tool for both infants and adults th
21、at are either HIV-positive or at risk of contracting the infection.The research, published inProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, was inspired byprevious workby other researchers showing that, both in tissue cultures (组织培养) and live mice, breast milk fromHIV-negativemothers was naturally
22、endowed withHIV-fighting properties. Scientists suggested that a few different proteins in the milk could potentially be responsible, but no one knew which one.As part of the study, the researchers divided breast milk into smaller fractions (部分) made up of specific proteins via a number of filters (
23、过滤) separating the proteins by size, electrical charge and othercharacteristicsand tested which of these fractions, when added to a tissue culture, prevented the cells from being infected by HIV. Eventually, theyfound that one particular protein was present in all the HIV-resistant fractions but in
24、none of the others: Tenascin C.Tenascin C works by blocking a key protein onHIVs envelopethat normally ties up to a receptor on a T cells membrane called CCR5. In doing so, Tenascin C prevents HIV from mixing with the T cell and injecting its RNA inside.Still, the researchers say that other natural
25、elements in milk might play a role in fighting HIV as well. “Its clearly not the whole story, because we do have samples that have low amounts of this protein but still have HIV-neutralizing activity,” the studys lead author Permar says.“So it may be actingin concert withother antiviral and antimicr
26、obial factors in the milk.”Whatever those other factors are, though, the finding vindicates (证明的正确) recent changes toUN guidelinesthatrecommend even HIV-positive mothers in resource-poor countries should breastfeed, if theyre taking anti-retroviral drugs to combat their own infection.The next steps,
27、 Permar says, are determining which area of Tenascin C is active and whether it can effectively prevent transmission in a live animal. If it works, it could potentially beincorporated(合并) into an HIV drug with broader applications. Its evenpossiblethat it could someday be adapted to reduce the risk
28、of HIV transmission in adults as well as infants.63. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A. The breast milk from an infected mother doesnt contain HIV at all.B. Its less likely for infants feeding on infected mothers breast milk to catch HIV.C. The possibilities of infants catching HIV have nothing
29、 to do with infected mothers.D. Children breastfed by infected mothers wont catch HIV though exposed to it frequently.64. Why did the researchers divide breast milk into smaller fractions?A. To find out Tenascin C.B. To make up specific proteins.C. To add them to a tissue culture.D. To test what pre

Although the situation has changed greatly in the past 20 or 30 years, there is still a sense, that girls arent as good at math, for instance, even though there is almost no evidence to support such a bel

Without making efforts to break them, we are limiting the potentials of our youth, both male and female. Providing the necessary resources
