12、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。For decades, public health officials have puzzled over a surprising fact about HIV: Only about 10-20 percent of infants who are breastfed by infected mothers catch the virus. Tests show, though, that HIV is indeed present in breast milk, so these children are exposed to the
13、 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 babies dont get infected. Human breast milk naturally contains a protein calledTenascin Cthat neutralizes HIV and, in most cases, prevents it f
14、rom 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 that are either HIV-positive or at risk of contracting the infection.The research, published inProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, w
15、as inspired byprevious workby other researchers showing that, both in tissue cultures (组织培养) and live mice, breast milk fromHIV-negativemothers was naturallyendowed withHIV-fighting properties. Scientists suggested that a few different proteins in the milk could potentially be responsible, but no on
16、e 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 (过滤) separating the proteins by size, electrical charge and othercharacteristicsand tested which of these fractions, when added to a tissue cult
17、ure, prevented the cells from being infected by HIV. Eventually, theyfound that one particular protein was present in all the HIV-resistant fractions but in 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 membr
18、ane 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 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
19、of this protein but still have HIV-neutralizing activity,” the studys lead author Permar says.“So it may be actingin concert withother antiviral and antimicrobial factors in the milk.”Whatever those other factors are, though, the finding vindicates (证明的正确) recent changes toUN guidelinesthatrecommend
20、 even HIV-positive mothers in resource-poor countries should breastfeed, if theyre taking anti-retroviral drugs to combat their own infection.The next steps, Permar says, are determining which area of Tenascin C is active and whether it can effectively prevent transmission in a live animal. If it wo

Its evenpossiblethat it could someday be adapted to reduce the risk of HIV transmission in adults as well as infants.63. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A.
