2.cDNA-AFLP Reveals Variation of Sequence Region trnF-ndhJ in Cytoplasmic Male Sterile Chinese Cabbage-pak-choi
Progress in Biochemistry and Biophysics 2006;0(05):-
By means of cDNA amplified fragment length polymorphism(cDNA-AFLP) technique, a fragment P1708 was amplified from Polima cytoplasmic male sterile Chinese cabbage-pak-choi (Brassica campestris L. ssp. chinenesis Makino, syn, B. rapa L. ssp. chinenesis) 'Bpol97-05A'. RT-PCR showed that this fragment was specifically expressed in male sterile material. Sequencing and BLAST search in GenBank database indicated that P1708 had 100% homolog with chloroplast ndhJ-trnF gene region except a 54 bp insertion. Gene specific primer pairs were synthesized according to ndhJ-trnF gene region and two fragments about 1 900 bp were amplified respectively using genomic DNA templates of Polima cabbage and male fertile oilseed rape. The sequencing results showed that the gene region ndhJ-trnF of Polima cabbage contained two 54 bp repeats and some variation sites. The repeat part shared the same sequence as trnF gene except three bases at 5′ ends. For the insertion of 108 bp sequence, a new open reading frame was created.

7.Prevention and treatment of carbapenem-resistant enterobacteriaceae infection in neonates
Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2021;28(2):92-97
Carbapenem-resistance is an emerging problem in Chinese neonatal intensive care units.Carbapenem-resistant enterobacteriaceae(CRE)can hydrolyze almost all β-lactam antibiotics including carbapenems by producing carbapenemase.There are three groups of carbapenemases, namely Amber A, B and D groups, which have different hydrolytic activities to specific β-lactam antibiotics.Currently, Chinese NICUs have been facing high colonization and infection rates of CRE, with high fatality rate and rapid transmission.The treatment of neonatal CRE infections is extremely difficult.The limited choice of antibiotics, the lack of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data and the uncertainty of the optimal dose and interval bring great challenges to the effective therapy of neonatal CRE infections.The main antimicrobial agents for CRE in adults and children include carbapenems, ceftazidime/averbactam, fosfomycin, polymyxin, aztreonam, etc., but there are few studies in neonates.Once infants are colonized or infected by CRE, decolonization and treatment are very difficult.Therefore, strict implementation of infection control and neonatal antimicrobial stewardship programs to reduce CRE production, transmission and infection, are the most important measures to cope with the prevalence of CRE.

OBJECTIVE: To review the outcomes of experiments about vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and the effect of it on bone formation, and to make sure whether VEGF can promote bone formation or not.DATA SOURCES: Electronic data searches were performed to obtain data from the databases of http://www.ncbi. nlm. nih. gov/pubmed and http://www. zglckf.com. DATA SELECZION: Nearly 30 articles about VEGF and the role of VEGF affecting bone formation were selected, regardless of the randomized design,blind method involved in or not.DATA EXTRACTION: These researches proved the structures, biologic properties and expression of VEGF and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor(VEGFR), and showed that VEGF plays an important role in endochondral ossification by promoting angiogenesis, bone turnover and preventing apoptosis of chondrocyte. In intramembranous ossification, absence of cartilage, osteoblasts are likely producing, and responding to, VEGF. VEGF also acts to recruit and activate osteoclasts as well as stimulate osteoblast chemotaxis, differentiation and matrix mineralization. It is debatable whether local application of exogenous VEGF can promote bone repair or not. However, in certain situation such as ischemia, the increase of VEGF locally may promote bone repair.DATA SYNTHESIS: Compared with the control group, VEGF can promote osteogenesis, bone formation and remodeling through the effect of VEGF on endochondral ossification and intramembranous ossification.CONCLUSION: One possible advantage of local VEGF therapy may be its ability to couple angiogenesis with bone formation and remodeling. If we can ultimately apply VEGF to treat osteonecrosis, bone defect and nonunion, we will find a new therapy for these diseases.

BACKGROUND: Icari n as one of the main components of Epimedium has an inhibitory effect on osteoclasts.. OBJECTIVE: To further investigate the influence of icariin on the root absorption of the maxil ary first molar at mesial part during orthodontic treatment in rats. METHODS: Orthodontic root resorption models were established in the left maxil a of rats. Local injection of 200 mg/kg icari n (icari n group) or normal saline (positive control group) was administrated into the left first molar buccal periosteum. The right maxil a of rats served as negative control group that was treated with neither appliance nor drug injection. The mesial distance between bilateral first molars and the contralateral maxil ary incisor was measured before and after the appliance was placed. Mesial surface of the mesial root of bilateral maxil ary first molars was observed using scanning electron microscope. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Mesial movement of the maxil ary molars in the icari n group was significantly less than that in the positive control group (P < 0.05). Under the scanning electron microscope, smal absorption lacunae were scattered in the icari n group, while the positive control group showed a large amount of absorption lacunae and they were interconnected into a sheet, showing a stark contrast with the smooth root surface of the negative control group. It is indicated that icari n can inhibit root resorption caused by orthodontic treatment, while reducing the amount of mesial movement of the molar under corrective force.
