Objective To evaluate the inhibitory effect of highly selective M4 receptor antagonist MT3 on the form deprivation myopia in guinea pigs and its potential mechanism. Methods Thirty?two healthy male guinea pigs were ran?domly divided into three groups:control group, form deprivation group, and form deprivation + MT3 group, 8 animals in each group. Refraction was measured by retinoscopy after cycloplegia before and after the experiment. The ocular biological dimensions were measured by A?scan ultrasound. RT?PCR was used to detect the relative expression of TGF?β2 mRNA in the retina and choroid. Results Compared with the right eyes of control group, the right eyes of form deprivation + MT3 group developed relative myopia of -1?44 ± 0?50 D (right?left eye) (P =0?001). The vitreous chamber depth and axial length of the right eyes were significantly prolonged by 0?10 ± 0?02 mm and 0?14 ± 0?07 mm (P<0?001, P<0?001), respectively, but the increases of myopia and axial length were significantly smaller than that of the form deprivation group (P<0?001, P<0?001, P<0?001). Down?regulation of relative mRNA expression of TGF?β2 in retina and choroid was found in the form deprivation group (P<0?001, P =0?014) compared with the right eyes of the control group, while up?regulation of relative mRNA expression of TGF?β2 in retina and choroid was found in the form deprivation + MT3 group ( P<0?001, P<0?001). Conclusions MT3 can inhibit the development of form deprivation myopia in guinea pigs, which may play an important role by the regulation of TGF?β2 mRNA level in the retina and choroid.

Objective Detecting the level of IDO and KYN in ulcerative colitis (UC) patients; using ROC curve to discuss their value in the diagnosis of patients with active UC. Methods 60 cases of UC group, 18 cases of dis-ease control group and 20 cases of healthy control group were included in the study. Immunohistochemical staining methods were used to detect the expression of IDO in colonic mucosa of UC, enzyme-linked immunosorbent (ELISA) methods were used to detect the serum levels of IDO, KYN and CRP, and the value with ROC curve method was analyzed. Results ① There was a positive correlation between IDO level and IDO expression (P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between KYN level and IDO expression (P<0.05). ②The levels of IDO and KYN in UC group were higher than those of disease control group and health control group (P<0.05). ③The levels of IDO and KYN in patients with active UC were significantly higher than that in patients with catabasis UC (P<0.01), and the levels increased with severity of inflammation. ④ The levels of IDO and KYN in active UC were positively related to disease activity and CRP levels (P<0.05). ⑤The IDO,KYN and CRP area under ROC curve were 0.976, 0.856 and 0.864;best cut-off point were 53.66 U/L, 2.34 nmol/L and 1.75 mg/ml;sensitiv-ity were 90.5%, 78.65% and 100.0%; specifity were 94.4%, 83.3% and 61.1%; Youden index were 0.839 2, 0.619 0 and 0.611 1. Conclusion The levels of IDO and KYN in serum can be used as an important index to judge the severity of UC. They have important value in the diagnosis of active UC . The value of IDO is higher than KYN and CRP.

Objective Knowing the BRCA gene mutational condition of high risk triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous and acquiring the differences of clinical and pathologic characteristics between person with BRCA gene mutation and person without it by means of BRCA gene mutation testing for 30 cases of TNBC in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous.Methods The objects of this study were 30 cases of high risk TNBC from Xinjiang.All the coded sequences of BRCA1/2 gene were amplified by means of extracting genomic DNA from peripheral venous blood.BRCA1/2 gene mutation analysis were prescreened through DHPLC.Then,the result was verified by DNA sequencing.The clinical and pathologic characteristics between person with BRCA gene mutation and person without it of 30 high risk TNBC cases were contrastively analysed.Results In all the 30 cases of BRCA gene mutation testing for TNBC in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous,there were 5 cases of pathogenic mutations of BRCA gene (5/30,16.7 %); 4 cases of BRCA 1 mutation (4/30,13.3 %); 1 case of BRCA 2 mutation (1/30,3.3 %); and there was no mutation to be found in 25 cases of BRCA gene of TNBC (25/30,83.3 %).As compared with person without gene mutation,who with it had the characteristics of earlier of TNM,the difference was statistically significant (P =0.040).Conclusion Since the rate of BRCA1 gene mutation of high risk TNBC is higher.It is suggested that the BRCA gene of every patients with high risk TNBC should be tested.Comparing with person with BRCA gene mutation and person without it,there might have differences on clinical pathological characteristics features.Therefor,individualized treatment should be taken into consideration.

BACKGROUND: It is found reported that polymorphism of Fok 1 restriction endonuclease cut site on exon 2 of 5' end start codon of 5' end start codon (SC), which affected the structure of VDR amino acids,and was relative related to bone mineral density(BMD).OBJECTIVE: To analyze the association between Vitamin D receptor gene (Fok 1) polymorphisms and osteoporosis in the elderly men.DESIGN: case-controlled trialstudy.SETTING: Institute of Gerontology, Chinese PLA General Hospital and Department of Endocrinology,Second Artillery General Hospital of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 26 elderly men with osteoporosis at out-patients clinic of Chinese PLA General Hospital and Department of Endocrinology,Second Artillery General Hospital of Chinese PLA from January 2002 to June 2002 were selected involved as osteoporosis case group,with and the average age of was (70±5) years, and BMD in osteoporosis group was 2.0-2.5 SD lower than 2.0-2.5 SD of the peak of BMD. Totally 66 healthy men with average age of (70±5)years were selected as control group during at the same time. All the subjects signed the informed consent,who were Beijing inhabitants of Han nationality, and there was no blood relationship among them.METHODS:VDR-Fok1 genotypes in both groups were detected with by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP),and distributiondistribution of VDR-Fok 1 genotypes were analyzedanalyzed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: distribution Distribution of VDR-Fok1genotypes in both each groups.RESULTS: Totally 66 healthy elderly men and 26 elderly men with osteoporosis entered analysis of results. The frequencies of FF, Ff and ff genotype were found to be 42%, 42% and 15% in control group, and 15%,50%,35% in osteoporosis group, respectively,and there was significantly different between two groups(x2=12.078,P < 0.01).Frequency of allele were significantly different between control group and osteoporosis group (64%,36% vs 40%,60%, x2=8.232,P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: There is a significant difference in the frequency distrinution of VDR gene start codon polymorphism between healthy elderly men and those with osteoporosis.
