Objective:To explore avirulent strain-specific new genes or new functions of already known genes from Streptococcus mutans of serotype c.Methods:Twenty-six DNA fragments unique to avirulent strain of Streptococcus mutans were sequenced.The sequences of these presumptive avirulence DNA fragments were subjected to homology search through BLASTn and BLASTx in public database,and their putative biological functions were analyzed.Results:The size of the DNA fragments ranged from 113 bp to 776 bp.The average G+C content was 38.27%,similar to that of the gene-codingsequences in Streptococcus mutans strain UA159 whose genome sequences were just completed.Seven clones were picked repeatedly.Of the nineteen DNA fragments,eight potentially represented new DNA fragments were registered in GenBank.The remaining DNA fragments showed high homology to known genes of Streptococcus mutans strain UA159.Conclusions: The gene analysis and identification supply the groundwork for further study of gene functions of the avirulent strain of Streptococcus mutans serotype c.

Objective:To construct a suppression subtractive library of suppression-related genes from c serotype Streptococcus mutans (S.mutans). Methods:After being isolated from virulent and avirulent strain of S. mutans respectively, the intact and high-pure genomic DNAs were digested with restriction enzyme AluⅠ. The digested DNA of the avirulent strain ligated with an adaptor was used as tester DNA, and that of the virulent strain as driver DNA. Then the suppression subtractive hybridization(SSH) was carried out, the efficiency of ligation and subtraction were detected respectively. The subtracted fragments were inserted into vector pCR2.1 using T/A cloning kit and transformed into E. coli TOP10F' competent cells. The white colonies were selected to construct the suppression subtractive library. Results: Through electrophoresis of AluⅠ-digested DNAs, a smear ranged from 0.1 to 2.0 kb was observed. The ligation efficiency of tester DNA with adaptor was at least higher than 25 percent. The subtraction efficiency confirmed the success in enrichment of differential genes between virulent and avirulent strain of S. mutans. In the subtracted group, the appearance time of the 23S rRNA gene in both tester and driver DNA was later than that in the unsubtracted group by twelve cycles. It suggested that suppression subtractive hybridization happened indeed. Then the subtracted fragments were cloned and the suppression-related gene library between virulent and avirulent strain of S. mutans was constructed. Conclusions:The suppression subtracted library of suppression-related genes has been constructed.

To achieve the goal of continuous improvement, measures of multi-link management were adopted for antimicrobial use, including establishing and improving organizational frameworks and rules and regulations, conducting various forms of training for all workers and staff, formulating criteria that were based on the frontier theories and could be easily applied, taking effective measures of intervention, using scientific evaluation methods, and getting timely feedback. The measures have proved to be effective in practice.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of local mild hypothermia at different time on dopamine (DA) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) concentration in rabbits brain basal ganglion with bilirubin encephalopathy. MethodsThe model of bilirubin encephalopathy was established, and treated with mild hypothermia for different time. The DA and 5-HT in the basal ganglion were detected with fluorescence spectrophotometry. ResultsThe DA and the 5-HT decreased in the basal ganglion significantly after modeling (P<0.01), and increased when treated for 6 h, 12 h or 24 h (P<0.01). ConclusionLocal mild hypothermia can significantly reduce the disorder of DA and 5-HT during bilirubin encephalopathy. The longer the hypothermia, the better the effect is.

Voriconazole is a broad spectrum triazole antifungal agent, widely used in the prevention and treatment of invasive fungal diseases.Long-term use of voriconazole can induce periostitis and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, accounting for serious adverse effects on patients, which has been reported in increasing clinical cases.This review is to characterize the epidemiological and clinical manifestations of periostitis and squamous cell carcinoma induced by voriconazole, and to analyze the mechanisms of triggering periostitis and squamous cell carcinoma, so as to promote the rational use of voriconazole in clinics.

Objective To investigate the plasma levels of regulated upon activation normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES), eotaxin, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and leukotriene B4 (LTB4) in patients with chronic urticaria and their roles in the pathogenesis of chronic urticaria. Methods Forty-one patients with chronic urticaria were included into this study along with 20 normal human controls. Patients were graded into three groups, I.e. Mild group (n = 11), moderate group (n = 21) and severe group (n = 9), according to their symptom score. All patients were treated with mizolastine 10 mg per day for 4 weeks. ELISA was used to study the plasma levels of RANTES, eotaxin, TNF-α and LTB4 in normal controls and patients before and after treatment. Results The plasma levels of RANTES, eotaxin, TNF-α and LTB4 were (52.5 ± 10.2) g/L, (58.4 ± 16.1) g/L, (35.1 ± 9.6) ng/L and (109.4 ± 21.7) ng/L, respectively, in untreatedpatients with chronic urticaria, compared to (33.7 ± 9.4) g/L, (48.3 ± 13.6) g/L, (21.3 ± 8.9) ng/L and(77.8 ± 11.6) ng/L, respectively, in normal controls(P < 0.01, 0.05, 0.01, 0.01, respectively). Increased plasmalevels of RANTES, eotaxin, TNF-α and LTB4 were observed in patients with moderate or severe chronic urticaria compared with those with mild chronic urticaria (both P < 0.05), whereas there was no significant difference between patients with severe and mild chronic urticaria (P < 0.05). After treatment with mizolas-fine the plasma levels ofRANTES, eotaxin, TNF-α and LTB4 were (36.3 ± 8.9) g/L, (46.3 ± 10.2) g/L, (23.2 ± 7.5) ng/L and (83.1 ± 14.2) ng/L respectively, significantly lower than those in patients before treatment (all P < 0.01), but showed no difference from those in normal controls (all P > 0.05). Conclu-sions The plasma levels of RANTES, eotaxin, TNF-α and LTB4 are elevated in patients with chronic urticaria, and they exhibits a positive correlation tendency with disease activity. After treatment with mizolastine, a significant decrease is observed in the plasma levels of RANTES, eotaxin, TNF-α and LTB4, which hints that RANTES, eotaxin, TNF-α and LTB4 may play a certain role in the pathogenesis of chronic urticaria.

Objective To study the function of LSD1 in the development of neurons and the influence of LSD1 on mood and memory-related behavior in mice. Methods The LSD1(flox / flox) transgenic mice were crossed with Nestin?cre(Tg) transgenic mice, using Cre?LoxP recombination system, to generate LSD1 conditional knockout of neural stem cell ( LSD1?CKO) mice, LSD1(flox/ flox) Nestin?cre(Tg) mice, and LSD1(flox/ flox) mice as control. The neuron proliferation in LSD1?CKO mice was further detected by immunofluorescence staining. At the same time, the mood and memory?related behavior of LSD1?CKO mice were examined using several methods:sucrose preference test ( SPT) , forced swimming test ( FST) and novel?object recognition ( NOR) assay. Results In the LSD1 brain?specific CKO mice, the neuron proliferation rate in the hippocampus was significantly reduced ( P=0. 023 ) , the preference for sucrose was reduced ( P =0. 0075 ) , immobility duration during the forced swimming test was increased (P<0. 05), and LSD1?CKO mice also exhibits memory?decline (P=0. 0019) during the novel?object recognition test. Conclusions Depletion of LSD1 in mouse brain neural stem cells leads to significant reduction of the neuron proliferation in the hippocampus. LSD1?CKO mice show more negative emotions and memory impairment.
