Objective To confirm that if the integrality of NF has effect on the shape and distribution of NLY. Methods using SABC monocolon antibody immunohistochemistry,electron microscopy,immunocytochemistry, and enzymocytochemistry to observe the disorder of NF-H and the changes of distribution and shape of NLY after vanadate treated. Results When the integrality of NF was damaged, the proteins of NF gathered towards nuclear accompany with the similar movements of NLY, meanwhile the shape of NLY also changed into round from thread-like shape.Conclusion Through different ways we used, vanadate can over-phosphate NF proteins and destroy the assemble ability. Whether NF has a complete structure is important to the shape and distribution of NLY, which will be changed when the structure of NF is disorganized.

Objective To investigate the effect of celastrol on space learning capability and expressions of beta-amyloid (Aβ) 40 and Aβ42 in hippocampus in APPswe/PS1dE9 double transgenic mouse after partial hepatolobectomy.Methods The 3-month-old APPswe/PS1dE9 double transgenic mice (n =96) were randomly divided into three groups according to the random number table method.Surgery group (group S, partial hepatolobectomy;n =32), celastrol group (group C, injections of dimethyl sulphoxide/DMSO and celastrol for 3 days before undergoing partial hepatectomy, on the surgery day, and for a further 4 days after surgery;n =32), and DMSO group (group D, injections of DMSO for 3 days before undergoing partial hepatectomy, on the surgery day, and for a further 4 days after surgery;n =32).Eight mice were selected randomly in each group and were Morris-water maze trained for continuous 5 days.Theirs learning and memory abilities were evaluated at 1,3, 7 and 14 d after surgery, respectively.Hippocampus was collected and the changes of β40 and Aβ42 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) at the time set in advance in each group.Results The average escape latency of group C was significantly shorter than groups S and D at 3, 7 and 14 d after partial hepatectomy (P ＜ 0.05).Times of passing through the platform groups S and D were significantly less than group C (P ＜ 0.05).The expressions of Aβ40/Aβ42 in group C were lower than group S and group D at 1, 3, 7 and 14 d after partial hepatectomy (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Through decreasing the expressions of Aβ40 and Aβ42 in hippocampus,celastrol improves the space learning capability in APPswe/PS1dE9, the double transgenic mouse after partial hepatolobectomy.

AIM: To delineate the specific mutation responsible for retinitis pigmentosa(RP)in a Yi pedigree, and to analyze the correlation of RHO gene mutation with clinical phenotype.METHODS:A comprehensive clinical evaluation was conducted on the proband diagnosed with RP and other familial members, complemented by a thorough ophthalmic examination. Peripheral blood samples were obtained from the proband and familial members, from which genomic DNA was extracte. Subsequent whole exome sequencing(WES)was employed to identify the variant genes in the proband. The identified variant gene was validated through Sanger sequencing, then an in-depth analysis of the mutation genes was carried out using genetic databases to ascertain the pathogenic mutation sites. Furthermore, an exhaustive analysis was performed to delineate the genotype and phenotype characteristics.RESULTS:The RP pedigree encompasses 5 generations with 42 members, including 19 males and 23 females. A total of 13 cases of RP were identified, consisting of 4 males and 9 females, which conforms to the autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. The clinical features of this family include an early onset age, rapid progression, and a more severe condition. The patients were found to have night blindness around 6 years old, representing the earliest reported case of night blindness in RP families. The retina was manifested by progressive osteocytoid pigmentation of the fundus, a reduced visual field, and significantly decreased or even vanished a and b amplitudes of ERG. The combined results of WES and Sanger sequencing indicated that the proband had a heterozygous missense mutation of the RHO gene c.1040C>T:p.P347L, where the 1 040 base C of cDNA was replaced by T, causing codon 347 to encode leucine instead of proline. Interestingly, this mutation has not been reported in the Chinese population.CONCLUSION:This study confirmed that the mutant gene of RP in a Yi nationality pedigree was RHO(c.1040C>T). This variant leads to the change of codon 347 from encoding proline to encoding leucine, resulting in a severe clinical phenotype among family members. This study provides a certain molecular, clinical, and genetic basis for genetic counseling and gene diagnosis of RHO.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the characteristics of 24-hr ambulatory electrocardiography (DCG) of children with myocarditis and to study the clinical value of DCG in the diagnosis of childhood myocarditis.

METHODS24-hr DCG findings, including abnormal DCG rate, and number, grade and distribution of ventricular premature beat (PVC), as well as heart rate variability, from 59 children with myocarditis were retrospectively reviewed and compared with those detected in 41 children without heart disease.

RESULTS86.4% of patients with myocarditis showed abnormal DCG, and compound arrhythmia was commonly seen, but only 46.3% showed abnormal DCG (P < 0.01) and single arrhythmia was predominant in the control group. The number and grade of PVC/24 hrs were not significantly different between the two groups. Compared with the control group, the average pattern PVC was predominant in the myocarditis group (84.6% vs 48.7%; P < 0.05). Monopeak pattern PVC was mostly seen (64.4%), followed by multiple-peak pattern (25.4%) and bi-peak pattern (8.4%) in the myocarditis group, which were significantly different from the control group: monopeak pattern 53.6%, bi-peak pattern 36.6% and multiple-peak pattern 7.3% (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONSThe 24-hr DCG characteristics of children with myocarditis are different from the normal controls, suggesting 24-hr DCG monitoring is useful to the diagnosis of childhood myocaditis.

Objective To investigate the structural and ultrastructural changes of the skin induced by micro-plasma radio-frequency technology,and to preliminarily discuss this novel technology mechanism.Methods Thirty guinea pigs were enrolled and randomly divided into three groups.They were radiated by different dose parameters 40 W,10 kJ; 60 W,10 kJ and 80 W,10 kJ.Every guinea pig's back was divided into two parts which was removed after immediately,one week and one month,and dermatopathology and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were performed.Results The different dose setting could make different skin change of immediately effect.When dose setting was 40 W,10 kJ,skin showed that epidermal cells were integrity and the superficial layer of dermis collagen tissue was light homogenization.When dose setting was 60 W,10 kJ,epidermal tissue showed focal emergence of fractional shape change and obvious homogenization.When dose setting was 80 W,10 kJ,epidermal showed complete vaporization loss or degeneration necrosis,and dermal superficial and middle layer of collagen tissue showed a large area of homogenization.Skin superficial collagen tissue's structure gradually showed dense and arranged in an orderly manner after one week and markedly thickened and arranged in compact manner after one month.TEM showed that epidermal cells were relatively complete,intercellular structure was normal,but the dermal collagen lost originally normal structure and cell structure disappeared and obviously showed massive apoptosis.A small amount of apoptosis was showed but collagen structure gradually restored after one month.Conclusions The novel micro-plasma radio-frequency has obvious dose effect to skin,and its main target tissues are dermal collagen tissue.It can stimulate skin collagen hyperplasia in certain degree.

Objectives To study the prevailing status of coal-burning type endemic fluorosis in Fuyuan County of Yunnan Province, and to provide a scientific basis for fluorosis control and prevention. Methods In 2013, five towns were selected from the villages and towns which the defluoridation stove project was implemented and by the end of 2007 defluoridation stove rate was higher than 95%(including 95%), and two natural villages were selected in each township to carry out the investigation. Dental fluorosis was examined of all children aged 8 to 12 of survey points. At least 20 people were selected in each village. At the same time, 20 copies of instant urine samples were collected from these children of half male and half female, and urinary fluoride was determined. Then five natural villages were sampled from all survey points, and permanent residents were divided into25-,35-,45-,55-and≥65groups according to age. Six people were selected from each group with male and female in half who were conducted examination of adult skeletal fluorosis by X-ray. Dental fluorosis diagnosis was based on theDental Fluorosis Diagnosis(WS/T 208-2011). Urinary fluoride determination was done in accordance withUrine-Determination of Fluoride-Ion Specific Electrode Method(WS/T 30-1996). Skeletal fluorosis diagnosis was carried out according to Diagnostic Criteria for Endemic Skeletal Fluorosis (WS 192-2008). Results A total of 556 children aged 8 to 12 were monitored, the detection rate of dental fluorosis was 41.55%(231/556), the dental fluorosis index was 0.78. The very mild, mild, moderate and severe proportions of children's dental fluorosis were 20.50%(114/556), 17.09%(95/556), 3.60%(20/556) and 0.36%(2/556), respectively, given priority to very mild. The prevalence of dental fluorosis in children was increased with increasing age (χ2=74.27, P<0.05). One hundred and ninety-three copies of child urine samples were tested, the geometric mean of urinary fluoride was 0.62 mg/L, and the urinary fluoride contents were between 0.10-2.93 mg/L. A total of 116 adults were examined, and the detection rate of skeletal fluorosis was 9.48%(11/116). Detected cases of skeletal fluorosis was given priority to mild (9 cases, accounted for 81.81%), more men cases [16.36% (9/55)] than those of women [3.28% (2/61), χ2 = 5.77, P< 0.05]. Conclusion The hazard of coal-burning type fluorosis has been reduced in Fuyuan County , the affect of defluoridation stove project is obvious.
