Objective To study the double restriction fluorescent labeling (DRFL) method for fluorescent labeling of trace DNA samples and its effect in enhancing the pathogen detection sensitivity of microarray assays. Method SARS-CoV RNA samples were reversely transcribed and then further amplified with the restriction display (RD)-PCR and fluorescently labeled by conventional restriction labeling directly with Cy-universal primer and the novel double labeling with Cy-universal primer and CydNTP. The labeled samples were applied to the microarray with the viral probes, processed and analyzed. Results Compared with the conventional method, DRFL labeling resulted in 3. 5835 times higher fluorescent intensity of all the SARS probes on average, even though increased fluorescent intensities for different probes varied considerably. Conclusion Signal to noise ratio can be enhanced by the DRFL method which improves the sensitivity of microarray technology in trace pathogen detections.

Objective To evaluate the effect of direct percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) in early stage in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) by acoustic densitometry (AD) technique Methods 40 patients with AMI were divided into 2 groups: 18 patients with direct PTCA (group A),22 patients with medical treatment (group B) The results of 2 D echocardiography and AD examination were studied on both groups at 7 days after admission Results There was no statistical difference in routine echocardiography between the two groups The results of AD examination showed: cyclic variation of integrated backscatter (CVIB) in group A was (4 2?1 3)dB, it was significantly higher than that in group B (2 5?2 4)dB ( P 0 05) Conclusion AD technology can reflect the changes of tissue characteristics in reperfused myocardia early It is a new technology for evaluating the effect of interventional therapy, predicting the improvement of cardiac function, and assessing the myocardia viability

Objective Based on the age of big data, the treatment mechanisms of Qishen-Yiqi(QSYQ) for myocardial infarction was focused. Methods All the data stemmed from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). For ensuring the efficacy genetic molecular, differentially expressed genes were discobered by Qlucore Omics Explorer (QOE). And then gene set enrichment analysis was performed by Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery online Gene Annotation system(DAVID) for showing the genes functions during bioprocess. In the end, the predicted genes and proteins interactions networks were demonstrated by Gene/protein interaction database (STRING). Results The main biological process involved up regulating the expression of some specil genes such as NFIL3, ARNTL, DBP, FGD4 and nuclear receptor genes like NR1D1, NR1D2 while using QSYQ treatment. In such case, BHLHE40/41 was regulated. Conclusion Traditional Chinese medicine, QSYQ, could influence the expression of genes of cytothesis, inflammatory and enzymatic activity as its effect of the molecular mechanism, in order to treat and cure the myocarditis infarction.

Objective To explore the effects of cotransplantation with osteoblasts on hematopoietic reconstitution in mice after bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Methods The typical model of syngeneic BMT was established. 18 Balb/c mice were used to prepare the bone marrow nuclear cells and osteoblasts for BMT. The 42 Balb/c mice were randomly divided into 3 group:normal group (6 mice, without any treatment), the single BMT group ( 18 mice, given 2 × 106 bone marrow nuclear cells/each mouse) and the cotransplantation group of HSC with osteoblaats (18 mice,given 2 × 106 bone marrow nuclear cells and osteoblasts/each mouse). The following factors were measured on day 7, 14, 21 after BMT: peripheral blood cells, bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMNC), the percentage of CD34+ cells in BMMNC (assayed by flow cytometry), the hematopoietic tissue changes (detected by HPIAS-1000 image analysis system) and micro vascular density (MVD) of bone marrow tissue (with immunohistochemistry). Results The levels of periphral WBC, RBC, PLT, BMMNC in the contransplantation group were higher than those in the single BMT group (P＜0. 01 or P＜0. 05). In the contransplantation group, the percentage of CD34+ cells in BMMNC, the hematopoietic tissue area and the MVD of bone marrow were also higher than the single BMT group on the 7th, 14th, 21st day after BMT(P＜0.01 or P＜0.05). Conclusion Cotransplantation with osteoblasts could significantly promote hematopoietic reconstruction in mice after BMT. Cotransplantation may represent a promising means of achieving higher engraftment rate after BMT.

Objective To explore the effects of osteoblasts on the recovery of hematopoiesis and angiogenesis in acute irradiation injury mice.Methods The femurs of 18 male BALB/c mice were used to prepare the bone marrow osteoblasts, and the rest mice were divided into 3 groups as normal group, saline group and osteoblast group.The mice in normal group received no treatment, and the other two groups were received 6.0 Gy 60Co γ-ray irradiation.After irradiation each mouse of osteoblast group was administered with 2 × 106 osteoblasts through tail vein injection, and equal volume saline was given to each mouse of saline group by the same way.The following factors were measured at 7, 14, 21 d after irradiation, they were the counts of peripheral blood cells and bone marrow mononuclear cells ( BMMNC ) , the percentage of CD34 + cells in BMMNC, the histology changes and micro vascular density (MVD) of bone marrow tissue.Results The counts of peripheral blood cells, BMMNC and hematopoietic tissue area in osteoblast group were higher than those in saline group.The percentage of CD34 + cells in BMMNC and the MVD of bone marrow in osteoblast group were also higher than those in saline group at 7, 14, 21 d after irradiation ( t = 2.46 - 64.51, P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions Osteoblasts could significantly promote the recovery of hematopoiesis and angiogenesis in mice after acute irradiation injury.

BACKGROUND: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is characterized by the clonal expansion of hematopoietic stem cells. Without effective treat ment, individuals in the indolent, chronic phase (CP) of CML will undergo blast crisis (BC), the prognosis for which is poor. Therefore, it is important to clarify the mechanism underlying CML from a whole-genome perspec tive. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the gene expression profile of bone marrow mononuclear cells from CML with Applied Biosystems Expression Array System.DESIGN: Observation and controlled analysis.SETTING: Institute of Gene Engineering, Southern Medical University PARTICIPANTS: Samples of two cases of bone marrow (a chronic myeloid leukemia patient and a healthy person).METHODS: This experiment was conducted at the Institute of Gene Engineering, Southern Medical University from October 2004 to September 2005.The total RNAs were extracted and purified from bone marrow mononuclear cells derived from a CML patient and a healthy person. mRNAs were purified using an oligo (dT)-cellulose mRNA purification kits and labeled using reverse transcription, in vitro transcription (RT-IVT), then hybridized with microarray. Gene expression differentiation of the bone marrow mononuclear cells were examined by ABI 1700 Chemiluminescent Microarray Analyzer. Reproducibility of microarray results was assessed by comparing data sets obtained from the same sample and analyzed by two different arrays.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①Assessment of quality of total RNA and labled cRNA. ②Reproducibility of microarray. ③ Hybridization of array.④Results of semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction RESULTS: ①Using statistical data analysis tools, we identified 6 706 genes that were up- or down-regulated in CML patient compared with the healthy person. In these genes, we found that 17 genes were up-regulated while 51 genes were down-regulated among 68 genes closely related to CML. ②most differentially expressed genes in C/EBPalpha mediated path way and CD40L signaling pathway had reduced expression. ③Good repro ducibility of microarray was confirmed by analysis of correlation and detection concordance in technical replicates. The correlation coefficient of the detectable probe in technical replicates was 0.991 for the CML patient and 0.988 for the healthy person. ④The results of semi-quantitative RT-PCR experiments supported the reliability of our microarray analysis.CONCLUSION: By comparing expression patterns of CML with those of the healthy person, we identified a large number of genes that, were up- or down-regulated in CML patients. These data should provide useful information for finding candidate genes whose products might serve as molecular targets for treatment of CML patients.

Objective In the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML-M2a), the first CCR (continuous complete remission) has been one of the most critical indicators to the prognosis of the patients. Using microarray approaches, gene expression profiles have been studied in patients with different CCR, in order to find out the genes relevant to the progresses of the AML. Methods Bone marrow mononuclear cells were collected and used as different experimental groups respectively. Group A composed of three AML patients with CCR<6 months, while group B composed of three AML patients with CCR>12 months. mRNAs were purified and labeled with Cy3 and Cy5 respectively, which were used to hybridize against the Agilent human 1B 60mer oligonucleotide microarrays. Results In the 20173 genes tested, 21 genes were found expressed differentially between these two groups. Of these differentially expressed genes, 10 genes were up-regulated while 11 genes were down-regulated in group A. Conclusion Through microarray studies, 21 genes including APP were found to be differentially expressed in AML patients whom were treated with standard chemotherapy. Theses genes can be early indicators for the diagnosis as well as prognosis of the refractory AML.
