Aim: To study the effects of berberine( Ber) on the rapidly activating component( Ⅰ_(Kr)), the slowly activating component(Ⅰ_(Ks)) of the delayed rectifier potassium current and the inward rectifier potassium current(Ⅰ_(K1)) in cardiomyopathic guinea pig ventricular myocytes. Methods: After guinea pigs were ip L-thyroxine 0. 5 mg/kg for 10 d, their hearts were cardiomyopathic. Then whole cell patch-clamp recording technique was used to observe the effect of 30 μmol/L Ber on the Ⅰ_(Kr), Ⅰ_(Ks) and Ⅰ_(K1) in cardiomyopathic guinea pig ventricular myocytes. Results: In cardiomyopathic guinea pig ventricular myocytes, Ber 30 μmol/L markedly inhibited Ⅰ_(Kr) and Ⅰ_(Ks) by 22. 8% and 29. 5% at + 10 mV and + 80 mV, respectively. The effect of Ber on Ⅰ_(Ks) was greater than that on Ⅰ_(Kr). Ber 30 μmol/L also inhibited the inward component of Ⅰ_(K1) by 29. 1% at + 120 mV, but the reverse potential of Ⅰ_(K1) was unaffected. Ber( 1-300 μmol/L) was shown to inhibit Ⅰ_(Kr) and Ⅰ_(Ks) in a concentration-dependent manner. Their IC_(50), were 76. 74 μmol/L and 55. 37 μmol/L, respectively. Conclusion: Ber inhibited Ⅰ_(Kr),Ⅰ_(Ks) and Ⅰ_(K1) in cardiomyopathic guinea pig ventricular myocytes, which may be important in understanding the antiarrhythmic effects of this drug.

Objective Insulin resistance is a possible cause of polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).It is presumed that ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1(ENPP1) is associated with insulin resistance.The purpose of this study is to explore the expression of ENPP1 in granulosa cells of the ovary and its relationship with PCOS. Methods Twelve aliquots of follicular granulosa cells were isolated from 12 samples of the patients with PCOS and 22 aliquots from 22 samples of the patients without PCOS,respectively.ENPP1 expression was analyzed by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and in situ hybridization.The relative expression of ENPP1 mRNA was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(real-time PCR). Results ENPP1 was expressed in granulosa cells of the ovary.ENPP1 expression's 2~(-?Ct) in granulosa cells of PCOS was significantly higher than non-PCOS(1.67?0.89 vs.0.94?0.76,P=0.017).Conclusion ENPP1 expression plays a role in ovary function and may be closely associated with the development of PCOS.

OBJECTIVEThis study explores the effects of different fibrin glue combination modes on the survival, proliferation, and apoptosis of dental follicle cells (DFCs), as well as to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of fibrin glue as transplantation material.

METHODSThe membranes of surviving DFCs were marked using 3,3'-dioctadecyloxa carbocyanine perchlorate (DIO), and the cell number was counted by using ImageJ2x software. The apoptotic cells were marked with prodium iodide (PI).

RESULTSCompared with that of the 3D-2 and 2D-1 groups, the degradation speed of the 3D-1 group was the slowest. DFCs could survive and grow well in fibrinogen with a concentration of 15 mg · mL⁻¹ supplemented with thrombin with a concentration of 2 U · mL⁻¹. In particular, the 3D-1 combination mode was significantly conducive to cell proliferation and stretching.

CONCLUSIONFibrin glue can be used as an effective cell transplantation material. The different combination modes have certain effects on cell proliferation. The 3D-1 combination mode is more conducive to the survival and proliferation of DFCs than other modes.

Objective: To explore the influence factors of the degenerate oligonucleotide primered PCR(DOP-PCR). Methods: Genome DNA template from the mouse single oocyte or liver tissue were used to perform DOP-PCR. DOP-PCR was carried out with templates of different origin, different gradient dilution, with or without low melting point gel purified to wipe off the small fragment that might interfere with the following analysis, and then PCR of gene FTCD and CBS were carried out to evaluate the influence of these factors on the amplification efficiency and specificity. Results: Compared with genome DNA template from mouse liver, the template from single oocyte had the same efficiency and specificity but a minor yield and different gradient dilution of DNA template had no effect on the efficiency and specificity. Furthermore, there was a higher specificity in the low melting point gel-purified DOP-PCR product than in untreated ones. Conclusion: We have got a satisfactory result and increased specificity from DOP-PCR product purified with the low melting point gel. Single oocyte of mice could be used for further investigation of special genes detection by DOP-PCR and of an optimization in the yield of the products.
