Breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1) is a tumor suppressor gene, whose encoded proteins play an important role in cell-cycle regulation, DNA damage repair, induction of apoptosis in damaged cells and the maintenance of genomic stability. Some foreign studies reported the down-regulation of BRCA1 expression in initial treatment leukaemia, and this result may have clinical implications for surveillance of therapy and prognosis .In this review, the construction features, biological characteristics of BRCA1 and the expression of BRCA1 in lenkaemia and lymphoma were covered.

ObjectiveTo study the effect and clinical meaning and pathogenic of extinction on cerebral cortex lesion. MethodsTactile extinction to classical extinction test(simple stimuli)and modified Quality extinction test(QET)were used. ResultsThe positive rate of ex-tinction using modified QET was higher than that of simple stimuli; left cortex lesion could result in extinction both in the contralateral side andthe ipsilateral side;left frontal sites lesion caused ipsilateral extinction. Conclusion: The modified QET was more sensitive than simplestimuli; modified QET showed extinction has competiting and restricting effect at 2 different levels, the mechanism of extinction is correlatedto competition and adventage restraint of diplo-hand cerebral hemisphere and liaise correliation fiber of diplo-hand cerebral hemisphere; thehighesttthe positive rate of extinction was observed in left parietal lesions.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of breast cancer suscepterbility gene 1 (BRCA1) in leukemia.Methods Fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase PCR was used to investigate the expression of BRCA1 in 18 patients with ALL-L2 (13 denovo ALL patients,5 relapsed ALL patients),20 patients with CML-CP and 15 normal controls.Results The mRNA expression of BRCA1 in denovo patients with ALL was lower than that in normal control,with statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05).The mRNA level of BRCA1 in ALL patients in CR was higher compared with before to cure, with statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05),but lower than that in normal control,without statistical significance(P ＞ 0.05).The mRNA expression of BRCA1 in patients with relapsed ALL was lower than that in normal control with statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05), and lower than that in denovo patients with ALL, without statistical significance (P ＞ 0.05).The mRNA level of BRCA1 showed no difference in CML-CP patients compared with normal control (P ＞ 0.05). Conclusion The different expression of BRCA1 in leukemia indicates that he has closely relationship with the prognosis of leukemia and guides the clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To evaluate the value of evoked potentials (EP) in diagnoses of minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) for liver cirrhotic patients without overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE). Methods A blind and self control study was conducted in 114 liver cirrhotic patients without OHE. All patients were tested for MHE by the number connection test-A(NCT-A), digit symbol test (DST), visual evoked potentials (VEP), brain-stem auditoru evoked potentials (BAEP), short latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP), P300 auditory event-related potentials (P300ERP). MHE was identified when the NCT-A or/and DST was abnormal. The positive rate was compared among VEP, BAEP, SSEP and P300ERP for their reliability and validity in diagnosis of MHE. Results Of 114 patients, 60 patients were found with MHE (52. 6%), which was positively correlated with Child-Pugh classifications (r=0. 278, P = 0. 003). The positive rate was found 17.5% in VEP, 29.8% in BAEP, 38. 6% in SSEP and 57. 0% in P300ERP. There was no significant difference in diagnosis of MHE between P300ERP and NCT-A+DST (X2 =0. 432,P = 0. 511). The sensitivity of VEP, BAEP, SSEP or P300ERP for diagnosis of MHE was 13. 3%, 41. 7%, 46. 7% or 73. 3%, respectively, whereas the specificity was 77. 8%, 83. 3%, 70. 4% or 61. 1 %, respectively. The receiver operating characteristic curve revealed that the best sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of MHE was P300EERP (area under the curve was 0. 672, 95%CI 0. 572 * 0. 773). The agreement of NCT-A+DST with VEP, BAEP, SSEP or P300ERP was 43. 9%, 61. 4%, 57. 9% or 67. 5%. Conclusions P300ERP is a sensitive and specific method for the diagnosis of MHE. which can serve as a supplement but not instead of NCT-A+DST.

Objective To explore the correlation between mental health and social support of the seven countries peacekeeping soldiers,and provide theoretical guidance for the peacekeeping soldiers to improve the mental health status.Methods Through random cluster sampling,1143 peacekeeping soldiers were investigated with Chinese Military Mental Health Scale (CMMHS) and Social Support Scale (SSS).Results The total score of CMMHS and depression factor((61.06 ± 3.99),(10.11 ± 1.67)) of the suicidal ideation peacekeeping soldiers were significantly higher than the no-suicidal ideation peacekeeping soldiers ((59.97 ± 3.73),(8.97 ± 1.81))(P ＜ 0.05),CMMHS total score and each factors of the seven countries peacekeeping soldiers were significantly higher than the Chinese soldiers norms (P ＜ 0.05),and the total scores ((28.50 ± 1.69)) of the social support of the suicide idea peacekeeping soldiers was lower than the no-suicidal ideation peacekeeping soldiers ((28.92 ±1.78)) (P＜0.05).The obsessive-compulsive factor,anxiety factor,depression factor,phobic anxiety factor,somatization factor,neurastheria factor and interpersonal sensitivity factor of CMMHS were the risk factors arise the mental diseases of the peacekeeping soldiers,especially the depression factor(OR =27.00,x2 =439.46,P ＜ 0.05).The CMMHS total score and each factors had obvious negative correlation with social support scores(r =-0.199 ～0.434,P ＜ 0.05).Analysis of multiple stepwise back displayed that the age,gender,education and social support were main factors of influencing mental health of the seven-country peacekeeping soldiers (age:t =2.428,educational level:t =-3.310,social support:t =1.990,P =0.047 ～ 0.01).Conclusion The suicidal ideation has close relationship with peacekeeping soldiers' psychological disease,and the mental health of the peacekeeping soldiers is influenced by the age,gender,education level,and especially by social support.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN)+ ribavirin (RBV) treatment in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC),and to evaluate the predictors of treatment response.Methods One hundred and thirty CHC patients treated with PEG-IFN a-2a 180 μg weekly or PegIFNα-2b 80 μg weekly plus RBV 900-1200 mg/d for 48 weeks in Guangdong Province were enrolled.The clinical data including age,gender,body mass index (BMI),spleen index (SPI),the diameter of portal vein (PV),hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype,HCV RNA level were collected at baseline,week 4,12,24,48 of treatment and week 24 of follow-up.Patients obtained sustained virological response (SVR) were compared to those with non-sustained virological response (NSVR).The related factors of SVR were analyzed.The data were compared by t test,chi square test or Logistic regression.Results The total SVR rate was 84％ (109/130),among which rapid virological response ( RVR ),early virological response ( EVR ),and end-of-treatment virological response (ETVR) were 21％ (27/130),72％ (94/130) and 93％ (121/130),respectively.HCV genotype was determined in 70 patients and the SVR rate was 82 ％ (45/55) in the genotype 1 patients and 87％ (13/15) in the genotype non-1 patients.Age,baseline HCV RNA,BMI and SPI were all negatively associated with SVR rate (regression coefficient＜0,all OR＜1,all P＜0.05),while EVR and total cumulative treatment dose of RBV were positively associated with SVR rate (regression coefficient＞0,both OR＞ 1,both P＜0.05).However,RVR,PV and total cumulative treatment doses of PEG-IFN were not associated with SVR rate (P＞0.05).Conclusions The SVR rate of PEG-IFN plus RBV combined treatment is high in CHC patients and more than 80％ of patients can be cured.However,the SVR rates are lower in patients elder than 35 years,with previous treatment failure history,baseline HCV RNA＞6 × 105 IU/mL,BMI＞26 kg/m2,SPI＞40 cm2,or the total cumulative treatment doses of RBV less than 80 ％ of standard dose.

Objective To evaluate the effect of high-level spinal cord injury(SCI)on the expression of mitochondrial voltage-dependent anion channel 2(VDAC2)in rat cardiomyocytes.Methods Forty-eight pathogen-free healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 200-250 g,were divided into 2 groups(n=24 each)using a random number table:sham operation group(group S)and high-level SCI group(group H).The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal chloral hydrate and subjected to SCI using the modified Allen weight-drop method in group H.The spinal cord was only exposed in group S.At 6,12,24 and 48 h after SCI(T1-4),6 rats in each group were randomly selected and sacrificed,and myocardial specimens were collected from the cardiac apex for microscopic examination of the cell morphology(with a transmission electron microscope) and for determination of cell apoptosis(by TUNEL assay),expression of Bax,Bcl-2 and VDAC2 protein and mRNA in cardiomyocytes(by Western blot and real-time polymerase chain reaction,respectively).The apoptosis rate and ratios of Bax/Bcl-2 protein and mRNA were calculated.Results Compared with group S,the apoptosis rate and ratios of Bax/Bcl-2 protein and mRNA were significantly increased at T1-4,the expression of VDAC2 protein and mRNA was significantly down-regulated at T2-4(P<0.05 or 0.01),and the pathologic changes of cardiomyocytes were aggravated in group H.Conclusion The mechanism of myocardial damage is related to down-regulation of mitochondrial VDAC2 expression in cardiomyocytes and promotion of cell apoptosis in rats with high-level SCI.

Objective To construct the eukaryotic expression vector of PRDX3 labeled with FLAG tag and to study its localization in human tongue cancer cell line SCC15.Methods PRDX3 gene was obtained from the breast library by PCR and cloned into PCDH vector to construct PCDH-FLAG-PRDX3.The plasmid was transiently transfected into 293T cells and the expression was detected by Western blot.Subcellular localization was detected by cellular immunofluorescence.Results The result of double digestion and sequencing showed that PCDH-FLAG-PRDX3 eukaryotic expression vector was constructed.The expression of FLAG-PRDX3 in human 293T cells was positively confirmed by Western blotting.In human tongue cancer cell line SCC15, the result of cellular immunofluorescence showed FLAG-PRDX3 was located in the cytoplasm rather than in the nucleus.Conclusion PRDX3 eukaryotic expression vector labeled with FLAG tag is constructed successfully, which is located in cytoplasm in human SCC15 cells.Construction and identification of PRDX3 could shed light on the function and mechanism of PRDX3 in tongue cancer.
