Objective To investigate the mechanism of automatic processing of cartoon facial expressions by using event-related potential(ERP).Methods Sixteen healthy volunteers (7 males and 9 females) were recruited for this study.The subjects were instructed to mentally count green faces (targets) and ignore the red ones (non-targets) including standard neutral expressions and deviant emotional expressions.Thirty two channels electroencephalogram (EEG) was recorded by Neuroscan Nuamps System.The amplitudes of mismatch negativity (MMN) were analyzed.Results (1) MMN1:the amplitudes were(-0.570 ± 0.076) μV (TP7/TP8),(-0.840 ±0.119) μV(A1/A2) ,(-1.199 ±0.105)μV(T5/T6) ,(-1.184 ±0.102)μV(O1/O2).There was a significant main effect of site (F(3,45) = 8.340, P ＜ 0.05 ) and an interaction of orientation × hemisphere (F(1,15) =11.977, P＜0.05).( 2 ) MMN2: the amplitudes were (-0.469 ± 0.126 ) μV ( TP7/TP8 ), (-1.014 ± 0.255 ) μV(A1/A2) ,(-1.071 ±0.182)μV(T5/T6), (-0.915 ±0.178)μV (O1/O2).There was a significant main effect of orientation (F(1,15) = 7.232, P ＜ 0.05 ) and interactions of orientation × type (F(1,15) = 6.458, P ＜ 0.05 )and orientation × hemisphere(F(1,15) = 11.907, P＜0.05 ).Conclusion Cartoon emotional faces elicit expressionrelated MMN indexing automatic processing.The MMN amplitude is right-lateralized and larger for negative than positive expression.

In order to gain the strain which has high growth vigor and whose biomass concentration satisfy further fermentation to produce arachidonic acid, we took the yield of microbes olein and arachidonic acid as evaluative index, adopted twice ultraviolet mutation, determined the time of ultraviolet irradiation by single factor expriment, and then the content of the arachidonic acid was measured by GC. The results of this experiment showed that the power of viltalight lamp was 20 W, exposure distance was 30 cm and exposure time was 80 s, lethality of spores of Mortierella isabellina was 76.4%. After twice ultraviolet mutation and repeatedly screen, a mutation of Mortierella isabellina Z80s2-109 whose arachidonic acid concentration in biomass were 3.77 times of the control strains was obtained and genetic stability.

Objective To investigate the risk factors,clinical prediction and intrapartum management of shoulder dystocia in non-macrosomia.Methods Totally 7 811 cases of vaginal delivery were retrospectively reviewed from Juanary 2009 to December 2013 in Shengjing Hospital.Shoulder dystocia was found in 11 cases (0.14％,11/7 811),including 1 case of macrosomia and l0 cases of non-macrosomia (shoulder dystocia group).Each non-macrosomia shoulder dystocia case was matched with 10 cases of normal delivery in the same week,which were selected randomly as the control group.The tendency and risk factors of shoulder dystocia in macrosomia and non-macrosomia were analyzed,and the following data between the two groups were compared,including the height of uterus fundus,abdominal circumference of the pregnant woman,the increasing of body mass index(BMI),fetal biparietal diameter (BPD),fetal femur length (FL),duration of every stage of labor,birth weight of the newborn,head circumference and chest circumference of the newborn,Apgar score.Results (1) There were 213 macrosomias among the 7 811 vaginal deliveries,with the incidence of 2.73％ (213/7 811).Only 1 shoulder dystocia was macrosomia (0.46％,1/213); while the other 10 cases were non-macrosomia (0.13％,10/7 598).(2) From 2009 to 2013,the macrosomia happened by 24 cases (2.32％,24/1 034),42 cases (3.61％,42/1 164),46 cases (2.60％,46/1 772),62 cases (3.01％,62/2 060),39 cases (2.19％,39/1781),respectively.The incidence of macrosomia had no significant difference among these 5 years (P＞0.05).The shoulder dystosia occurrence without macrosia in these 5 years were 1 case (0.10％,1/1 034),3 cases (0.26％,3/1 164),2 eases (0.11％,2/1 172),2 cases (0.10％,2/2 060),2 cases (0.11％,1/1 781),respectively.The incidence of shoulder dystocia without macrosomia had no significant difference among these 5 years (P＞0.05).(3) In the should dystocia group,5 cases were complicated with premature rupture of membrane (5/10),4 cases were mother≥ 35 years old (4/10),3 cases were multipara(3/10),3 cases had gestational diabetes mellitus(3/10),3 cases were occiput posterior during the first stage of labor(3/10),3 cases had prolonged second stage of labor (3/10) and 6 cases had routine lateral incision (6/10).In the control group,3 cases were complicated with premature rupture of membrane(3/10); 1 case was mother≥35 years old (1/10); 2 cases were multipara(2/10),3 cases had gestational diabetes mellitus (3/10),1 case had prolonged second stage (1/10) and 7 cases had routine lateral incision (7/10).(4) There were no significant difference in the height of uterus fundus,BMI,BPD,FL,and duration of the first stage of labor between the shoulder dystocia group and the control group (P＞0.05).Compared with the control group,the increasing of BMI [(6.8±3.1) vs (4.8± 1.4) kg/m2],the time of the second stage of labor[(86±65) vs (38±28) minutes] and abdominal circumference[(108±8) vs (101±7) cm] were significantly higher in the shoulder dystosia group (P＜0.05).(5)There were significant difference in the chest circumference of the newborn [(34.0±1.6) vs (32.2±1.9) cm] and the ratio of chest circumference to head circumference of the newborn [(0.99±0.03) vs (0.97±0.03)] between the two groups(P＜0.05).The 1-minute Apgar score of the newborn (7.4±2.8) was significantly lower than the control group (10.0±0.0) (P＜0.01).Clavicular fracture occurred in 3 newborns and brachial plexus injury occurred in 4 newborns in the shoulder dystosia group.Conclusion It is difficult to predict shoulder dystocia in non-macrosomia.Shoulder dystocia of non-macrosomia could be predicted by measurement of the head circumference,chest circumference,the ratio of chest circunfference to head circumference by using prenatal ultrasound.The risk factors may complicated with premature rupture of membrane,abnormal occiput position during the first stage of labor and prolonged second stage of labor.

P53 gene (exon7～8) mutatins and p53 proteins and HPV 6，11，16，18-DNA were examined in 49 cervical carcinoma by immunohistochemistry, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) in order to investigate their role and mutual relation and clinical significance in the onco genesis of cervical carcinoma. The results showed that first, p53 proteins posit ive rate was 48.98％, and not outstandingly related to the differentiation and the invasive degree of cervical carcinoma(P＞0.05); the defects of P53 gene (exon7～8) were not found but P53 (exon7～8) mutations were detected in 7 of 49(14.29％) cervical carcinoma; then, HPV16-DNA positive rate was much higher than HPV6,11,18-DNA positive rate respectively(P＜0.001),and the different HPV-DNA was simultaneously tested in one cerv ical carcinoma; last, not all cases of P53 mutations had p53 proteins posi tive, but the cases of P53 mutations and p53 proteins negative certainly had HPV infections, and HPV positive cases were much more than its negative one in the cases of p53 proteins positive(P＜0.001). These results proved that the oncogenesis of cervical carcinoma is mainly associated with HPV16 infections, and second related to P53 (exon7～8) mutations. p53 proteins positive results from P53 mutations or/and HPV infections in cervical carc inoma.

The premembrane and envelope proteins (prM-E),which contains the mainly protective antigen related with virulence and tropism,are the primary structural protein of flavivirus.However,prM-E in ZIKV is rarely understood.We have analyzed the structure and biological effects of prM-E in ZIKV by bionformatics methods.The prM-E proteins virus-like particles of dengue virus was introduced in the present.Then,the prM-E proteins virus like particles of ZIKV was prospected.

Stent-assisted angioplasty of intracranial and extracranial arteries is a complex pathophysiologic process.Therefore,understanding of related factors is significant for guiding clinical treatment and reducing restenosis rate.Intravascular stent as a foreign body leads to platelet activation and aggregation,cytokine secretion,resulting in thrombosis and leukocyte aggregation at vessel injury site to produce cytokine and inflammatory reaction.In addition,the smooth muscle cells migrate to injury site and proliferate,leading to intimal hyperplasia,vessel wall reconstruction and intra-stent restenosis.Moreover,the restenosis following stenting is related to stent type and medicine supportive treatment.Drug-eluted stent with anti-inflammation and vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation can reduce body inflammation intensity and duration,and postoperative medicine supportive treatment can reduce incidence of intravascular restenosis.

BACKGROUND: The role of inflammatory reaction and inflammatory factors and the mechanism of pathophysiology of restenosisfollowing the stent implantation remains controversial. OBJECTIVE: To observe the changes of platelet activation markers and correlated factors following carotid artery stenting in rabbits. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Observation experiment was performed at the Institute of Neurobiology of Henan University fromMarch to September 2008. MATERIALS: A total of 26 rabbits, male or female, weighing 2.1-2.9 kg, were included. The alloy stent was made of 90% platinumand 10% iridium with wire diameter of 0.13 mm and monofilament winding spiral structure. The alloy stent was submerged 100 g/Lgelatin solution, and made into protein-coated stent after dried. METHODS: Animals were anesthetized by sodium pentobarbital (30 mg/kg), and the right carotid artery was exposed. The stent was inserted in the proximal end after administration of aspirin and clopidogrel dual antiplatelet therapy. Penicillin was intravenously injected, 800 000 IU per day. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The platelet-activating factor (PAC-1 and CD62P) of peripheral blood, platelet-monocyte aggregates and interleukin (IL-6) immediately before and 0.5 hour, 6 days, 1 month and 6 months after implantation were determined.RESULTS: Twenty-six rabbits were included in the final analysis. The level of PAC-1, CD62P and platelet-monocyte aggregates at 0.5 hour, 6 days and 1 month after inserting were significantly elevated compared with the levels immediately before inserting (P

Objective To study the effects of eukaryotic expressive mature peptide LL-37 of human cationic antimicrobial peptide(hCAP-18) on the expressions of membrane molecules on dendritic cells(DCs).Methods By gene cloning,the eukaryotic expressive plasmid pcDNA4/Myc-His-LL-37 for the mature peptide LL-37 of hCAP-18 was constructed.Then they were transfected into HEK293 cell lines.After the cell lines were cultivated for 48 h,the supernatant was collected.Then the DCs from peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs) induced by rh-GM-CSF and rh-IL-4 were cultivated with the supernatant for 48h.The expressions of membrane molecules CD40 and HLA-DR on DCs were detected by flow cytometry(FCM).Results The eukaryotic expressive plasmid pcDNA4/Myc-His-LL-37 was constructed successfully and it expressed in eukaryotic cells HEK293.FCM results indicated that the expressions of CD40 and HLA-DR on the membrane of DCs which were stimulated by the supernatant produced by pcDNA4/Myc-His-LL-37 were higher than those in control group(P

BACKGROUND:As an important industrial solvent,benzene can cause DNA damage,chromosome aberrence,formation of DNA adducts and gene mutation. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of benzene on DNA and the mechanism,as well as the changes of antioxidase system it caused. DESIGN:Randomized case control study. SETTING:The Department of Clinical Laboratory of First Affiliated Hospital and Public Health College of Harbin Medical University. PARTICIPANTS:The experiment was completed in the Animal Centre in Public Health College,Harbin Medical University.Twenty-four healthy male mice of Kunming species weighed between 18 g to 22 g were chosen.The mice were provided by Experimental Animal Centre of Second Affiliated Hospital,Harbin Medical University. INTERVENTIONS:The mice were divided into control group,low dose benzene group and high dose benzene group.Inhaling benzene smoke method was used 4 hours per day to cause benzene poisoning to mice except those of the control group.The mice were executed two months later to separate marrow cells and peripheral lymphocytes and remove liver,spleen and brain to make homogenate. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) was used to assay the DNA damages of marrow cells and peripheral lymphocytes.Meanwhile,the contents of superoxide dismulase(SOD),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px) and malondialdehyde(MDA) in liver,spleen and brain tissues were also detected. RESULTS:The comet percentage of marrow cells and peripheral lymphocytes in two benzene poisoning groups were(83.56± 10.28),(92.54± 15.93)% ,and(41.27± 6.03)% ,(65.79± 11.62)% respectively which were much higher than those in control group[(4.13± 0.52)% ,(2.21± 0.31)% ](P< 0.01) and represented dose-response relationship.The SOD activity of liver homogenate and GSH-Px activity of high dose and low dose groups were (11 573.31± 1 938.72),(12 574.68± 1 938.72) nkat/g and (309.40± 82.85),(375.41± 55.18) nkat/g respectively which were much lower than those in control group [(16 668.67± 3 137.96),(588.62± 110.52) nkat/g] (P< 0.05).However, there was no significant difference between different dose groups. The GSH-Px activity in spleen homogenate in two experimental groups was(421.75± 124.02) and(523.10± 45.18) nkat/g respectively which was much lower than that of control group [(618.42± 57.01) nkat/g](P< 0.05) and there was significant difference between two groups (P< 0.05).In the brain homogenate of both benzene groups,the GSH-Px activity was(87.35± 19.84) and(95.02± 14.00) nkat/g respectively which was much lower than that of control group[(118.36± 7.67) nkat/g] (P< 0.05) and without difference between two groups.The MDA content in brain homogenate of high dose group was(3.99± 1.15) μ mol/mg which was much higher than that of control group [(2.58± 0.53) μ mol/g] (P< 0.05). CONCLUSION:Chronic benzene poisoning can cause DNA impairment of marrow cells and peripheral lymphocytes and reduce the activity of antioxidase.
