Objective To assess the prevalence of the A to G mutation at position 3243 of the mitochondrial tRNALeu(UUR) gene in type 2 diabetes in a Chinese population. Methods We screened 716 randomly selected, unrelated patients with type 2 diabetes for the mutation with a PCR-RFLP technique. Results Three individuals with this mutation were identified, representing approximately 0. 4％ of the type 2 patients screened. Further screening of first degree relatives of these 3 patients identified another 4 affected carriers. In comparison with type 2 diabetic patients without the mutation, these 7 carriers of the mt3243 mutation had:①an earlier onset of diabetes (38. 0±10.1 yr vs 53. 4±10.0 yr, P ＜0. 001) ;②lower BMI (19.5±2.0 vs 24. 9±10. 9, P ＜0. 0001) ;and ③ lower post-challenge insulin levels (Area under the curve of insulin levels during the OGTT, 2946± 1647.2 vs 7469±6647.7, P ＜ 0. 01). In addition, we screened the same 716 patients with type 2 diabetes, as well as 181 controls with normal glucose tolerance,for a newly described mt 3316 G→A mutation. This mutation was found in 16 patients with type 2 diabetes (2.20％) and 5 controls (2.7％). Therefore, the frequency of the mutation was not different between patients and controls.Moreover, clinical characteristics such as age of onset of diabetes, BMI, and insulin levels were not different between diabetic patients with the mt3316 mutation and those without it. Concision The mt3316 G→ A mutation is a polymorphism unrelated to diabetes.

Based on the gene sequence of AIV matrix protein 2(M2) and two cytotoxic T-lymphocyte epitopes derived from nucleoprotein,the prokaryotic expression vector pET-3M2e-NP1-NP2 was constructed.The target gene was expressed in the solvable form in BL21(DE3) when induced with 1.0 mmol/L IPTG and Western blot analysis showed that the expression product had good immunogencity.Purified fusion protein was mixed with various amount of adjuvant,including Freund's,Vash oil and chitosan,and then immunized 20-day-old chicken by intramuscular injection and boosted 3weeks later.Blood samples were collected weekly following the primary vaccination.The anti-M2e antibody was detected with ELISA method with the synthesized peptide as coated antigen;the neutralizing ability of anti-serum was evaluated on MDCK cell line and chick embryo,the CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocyte amounts in peripheral blood of immunized chicken was measured by flow cytometry.Results showed that the fusion protein can induce immunological reaction,and the antibody can bind with the viral M2 protein that expressed on the surface of MDCK cells.Flow cytometry result showed that CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocyte in peripheral blood increased obviously following immunization(P

M2e gene of three copies for H5N1 subtype AIV was synthesized and fused with human mycobacterium tuberculosis hsp70 gene.The fused gene was cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector to get pET-3M2e and pET-3M2e-hsp70.Recombinant protein r3M2e and r3M2e-hsp70 were successfully expressed induced with IPTG and purified with Ni2+-NTA collumn.Following that,the immunity of the recombinant protein was analysized with Western blot.20-day-old AIV non-immunized chickens were vaccined with r3M2e and r3M2e hsp70,at the same time,Trx and KLH-M2e inoculated chickens were served as vector and positive controls.Two weeks after the primary vaccination,every group was boosted with the same vaccine as in the primary vaccination.The humoral immunity of the vaccined chickens was evaluated with antibody detection against M2e,cytopathic suppression test,and indirect fluorescence assay.The cellular immunity was estimated according to lymphocyte subtype analysis with flow cytometry and M2e specific cytokine detection.Four weeks after the boost vaccine,all groups were challenged with 100EID50 AIV of H9N2 subtype,and the virus from swabs was detected with Real-time PCR.Results indicated that r3M2e hsp70 vaccined chicken developed the better humoral and cellular immune response,also,made a better performance compared with r3M2e vaccined group in virus challenge.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and results of the application of both expanded cutaneous flap and temporoparietal fascia flap in total ear reconstruction with Medpor framework.Methods The main procedures consisted of three stages:stage Ⅰ-skin expansion,stage Ⅱ auricle formation that consisted of orientation of Medpor implant and creation of coverage for the implant by both expaned skin flap and temporoparietal fascia flap,and stage Ⅲ-treatment of residual ear and recontruction of auricular lobule. Results Twenty-two ears in 22 unilateral microtia patients were constructed using Medpor implants covered with both expanded cutaneous flap and temporoparietal fascia flap over the last three years,and they were accepted as pleasing by the patients.Conclusions Application of both expanded cutaneous flap and temporoparietal fascia flap can assure no extrusion of Medpor implant in ear reconstruction.Further more,the two layers of transferred tissues will not affect the profile details of the reconstructed ear.And because the skin covering the framework and fascia is derived from frommastoid region,the appearance and profile of the reconstructed auricle is true to nature and close to that of the opposite one.
