Objective To identify hardly recognizable victims of an accident. Methods Tissues of muscle and cartilage were obtained from the dead bodies. Some of the tissues were checked by routine pathological microscopy. Genomic DNA was isolated from the tissues and subjected to STR profiling of 16 sites via multiple fluorescent PCR analysis with ABI’s AmpFLSTR Amplification Kit. Individual identification of the victims was carries out by matching the STR profiles of the victims with those of the parents. Results Routine pathological microscopy showed that the structure of some of the muscle tissues was totally destroyed, while the structure of all cartilage tissues was basically intact. Three patterns of genomic DNA isolated from victims’ muscle tissues could be seen in gel electrophoresis, i.e. basically undegraded, partially degraded and totally degraded. STR profiling failed due to the degradation of genomic DNA of some of the muscle tissues, while all samples of the cartilage genomic DNA could be used for STR typing. Conclusion Paternity identification based on STR genotyping was an effective way to identify victims of accidents, and cartilage tissue from the victims was the first choice for that purpose.

For obtaining new structural compounds with unique resistance profiles or novel mechanisms of action on HIV-1 from natural products, anti-HIV-1 drug screening models were used in vitro. Norcantharidin (NCTD), a derivative from cantharidin, was found to have inhibitory activities on HIV-1(IIIB) p24 antigen in lymphocyte lines MT-4, CEM and H9. It inhibited HIV-1 strain 018a (sensitive to zidovudine) from replicating with EC50 (50% effective concentration) of 14.9 micromol L(-1) and also inhibited HIV-1 strain 018c (resistant to zidovudine) from replicating with EC50 of 20.2 micromol L(-1) in primary lymphocytes peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Norcantharidin showed synergistic activity with zidovudine on HIV-1(IIIB) in MT-4 cells, the combination index was less than 0.3. But, it was not active on HIV-1 integrase, reverse transcriptase or protease in vitro. As the structure of norcantharidin is unique and different from that of all clinic drugs approved, it would be possible to obtain new and effective compounds against HIV-1 with low toxicities after modification of norcantharidin.

Objective To investigate molecular diagnostic method for hereditarymethemoblobinemia. Methods The cDNA coding sequence of NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase (b5R) from 3 patients with hereditary methemoglobinemia was analyzed by direct sequencing of RT-PCR products and the genomic DNA of b5R gene by PCR-restriction endonuclease digestion or PCR-sequencing. Results The b5R cDNA of patient A was T/C heterozygous at nucleotide 527 and G/A heterozygous at nucleotide 608. The b5R cDNA of patient B was G/A heterozygous at both nucleotide 170 and nucleotide 179. The b5R cDNA of patient C was G/A heterozygous at nucleotide 608 and C/T heterozygous at nucleotide 791. Result of genomic DNA analysis was in agreement with that of cDNA approach. Conclusion The method for molecular diagnosis of hereditary methemoglobinemia was established and 3 novel b5R gene mutations were identified in compound heterozygosity in 3 Chinese patients.

The effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) against various diseases urges more low cost,speed and sensitive analytical methods for investigating the phamacology of TCM and providing a theoretical basis for clinical use.The potential of second-order calibration method was validated for the quantification of two effective ingredients of Schisandra chinensis in human plasma using spectrofluorimetry.The results obtained in the present study demonstrate the advantages of this strategy for multi-target determination in complex matrices.Although the spectra of the analytes are similar and a large number of interferences also exist,second-order calibration method could predict the accurate concentrations together with reasonable resolution of spectral profiles for analytes of interest owing to its ‘second-order advantage'.Moreover,the method presented in this work allows one to simply experimental procedure as well as reduces the use of harmful chemical solvents.
