Objective To investigate the relation ship between the changes of platelet parameters and intracranial hemorrhage in premature children with low birth weight. Methods 73 premature children with low birth weight were selected as research subjects and divided into PIVH group (35 cases) and non PIVH group (38 cases) according to intracranial hemorrhage or not,and 20 normal newborns were selected as controls. The neonatal platelet parameters of three groups were detected and compared. Results There were 35 cases of 73 premature children with low birth weight occurred intracranial hemorrhage, the incidence rate was 47. 9%. The gestational age and birth weight of PTVH group were (29.3 ± 1.2) weeks and (1 653.0 ± 182. 1) g and which were significantly lower than the non PIVH group( all P ＜0.05) ; the asphyxia rate of PIVH group was 60.0% and which was significantly higher than the non PIVH group(P＜0.05). The PLT and PCT of PIVH group were (187.52 ±52.03) × 109/L and (0.127 ± 0.05) % and which were significantly lower than the control group (all P ＜ 0. 05) ; The PLT and PCT of non PIVH group were(223.48 ±42.15) × 109/L and (0. 189 ±0. 06)% and which were significantly lower than the control group(all P＜0. 05) ; The PLT and PCT of PIVH group were significantly lower than the non PIVH group(all P ＜ 0.05) ; while the MPV and PDW among the three groups had no significant difference ( all P ＞ 0. 05 ). Conclusion The abnormal decrease of PLT and PCT should be involved in the pathogenesis of intracranial hemorrhage in premature children with low birth weight, clinical attention should be paid to the monitoring of platelet parameters in premature children so as to alert and minimize its incidence.

AIM: To explore the effects of aflatoxin G 1(AFG 1 )on proliferation and TNF-? secretion of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells(HPBM) in vitro. METHODS: The effects of AFG 1 on proliferation of HPBM were analysed with flow cytometric (FCM) DNA analysis and MTT bioassay, while that on TNF-? secretion was detected with ELISA. RESULTS: FCM analysis revealed that 6 h after treatment, proliferation index(PI) of 1000 ?g/L AFG 1 treated HPBM was significantly higher than that of control. 24 h after AFG 1 treatment, stimulating effects on proliferation was found in HPBM treated with AFG 1 at 200 ?g/L and 1 000 ?g/L.Regression analysis showed that PI was postively correlated with the concentrations of AFG 1 in the concentration range from 0 to 1 000 ?g/L( r=0. 5122 and 0.5119 respectively,P

AIM: To explore the effects of sterigmatocystin (ST) on IL-4 expression and secretion of murine spleen cells in vitro. METHODS: The secretion and expression of IL-4 in murine spleen cells were studied with ELISA and semi-quantitative RT-PCR method after ST pretreatment at five different dosages (0.125 mg/L, 0.25 mg/L, 0.5 mg/L, 1 mg/L, 2 mg/L) for 2 h and 12 h, respectively. RESULTS: Semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed that the expression of IL-4 mRNA in ST 0.125, 0.25 and 0.5 mg/L treated groups were higher than that in control group, especially in ST 0.5 mg/L group ( P

AIM: To explore the effect of deoxynivalenol on apoptosis and proliferation of mouse thymocytes in vivo. METHODS: Effect of deoxynivalenol at different concentrations on apoptosis and proliferation of mouse thymocytes in vivo were studied with animal experiment, electron microscopic observation, DNA agarose gel electrophoresis and flow cytometric analyses. RESULTS: FCM analysis showed that the apoptosis rates of the thymocytes in DON groups (0 5 mg/kg, 1 mg/kg, 2 mg/kg, 4 mg/kg and 8 mg/kg) were significantly higher than that in control ( P

AIM: To explore the effects of sterigmatocystin (ST) on IL-2 and IFN-? expression and secretion in murine spleen cells in vitro. METHODS: The secretion and expression of IL-2 and IFN-? in murine spleen cells after ST pretreatment at five different dosages (0.125 mg/L, 0.25 mg/L, 0.5mg/L, 1mg/L, 2mg/L) were studied with ELISA and semi-quantitative RT-PCR method, respectively. RESULTS: Pretreatment of murine spleen cells in vitro with ST at five different dosages affected the IL-2 and IFN-? secretion at protein level and expression at mRNA level of the treated cells. The effects varied dependently to the ST dosage. At relatively lower dosages, ST induced the expression of IL-2 and IFN-? in murine spleen cells, while at relatively higher dosages, inhibitory effects were found, with the most significant inhibitory effects seen in ST 1 mg/L group. CONCLUSION: ST affected the secretion and expression of IL-2 and IFN-? in treated murine spleen cells. At relatively lower dosage, ST induced IL-2 and IFN-? secretion and expression, while at relatively higher dosages, inhibitory effects appeared.

Objective To explore the effects of deoxynivalenol (DON) on apoptosis of human gastric carcinoma cell line SNU in vitro. Methods SNU cells were treated with DON at different concentrations (50, 100, 1000, 2000 μg/L) for 12 hours, and then cells were harvested for cell apoptosis by flow cytometric (FCM) DNA analysis and the expression of Bax, Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 at protein level with FCM and Western blotting. Results FCM results showed that the apoptosis rates of SNU cells in DON treatment groups were all higher than that in control, especially in DON 1000 μg/L and 2000 μg/L groups (P<0.05). In the concentration range from 50 to 2000 μg/L, a significant concentration-depended response correlation could be found between apoptosis rate and DON concentration (r =0.940, P <0.01). FCM and Western blotting showed Bax and Caspase-3 expression in often SNU cells DON treatment for 12 hours were up-regulated while that of Bcl-2 was down-regulated. Conclusion DON can induce apoptosis of SNU cells in vitro in dose-dependent manner, and possible mechanisms of apoptosis induction effects may be up-regulation of the expression of Bax and down-regulation of that of Bcl-2 and activation of the key enzyme of apoptosis Caspase-3.

Objective To study the clinical characteristics and genetic cause of a Chinese family affected with paroxysmal kinesigenic dystonia(PKD).Methods The detailed clinical data and the blood samples of the affected patients with PKD and their relatives were collected.After genomic DNA was extracted from blood leukocytes,target linkage analysis Was performed using multiplex PCR by microsatellite marker's located in the reported critical region on chromosome 16.All exons and flanking regions of SCNN1G and ITGAL genes were amplified by PCR-sequence.Results In this three-generation 12 member family,5 individuals have been diagnosed as PKD.Target linkage analysis suggested the disease gene linked to chromosome 16.between D16S3396 and D16S3057 with two-point LOD score of 1.47 at recombination fraction(θ)=0.0.All affected individuals shared a common haplotype which co-segregated with the phenotype.Except for 8 reported SNPs,no pathologic sequence variants were found in candidate genes SCNN1G and ITGAL.Conclusions The studied family is genetically linked to the reported critical locus of PKD on chromosome 16.SCNN1G and ITGAL were ruled out as the causative genes for the studied pedigree.Further genetic analysis in this family may reveal new genetic cause responsible for PKD.
