OBJECTIVE:To observe therapeutic efficacy and side effect of perospirone in the treatment of elderly depression. METHODS:64 elderly patients with depression were randomly divided into paroxetine combined with perospirone group (drug combination group) and paroxetine group (single drug group) with 32 patients in each group. Both groups were given paroxetine 20-40 mg/d,and drug combination group was additionally given perospirone 4-8 mg/d. HAMD and CGI-SI were adopted to evalu-ate therapeutic efficacy after 8 weeks treatment,and side effect was evaluated with TESS scale;those were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:After 8 weeks treatment,the effective rate of drug combination group and single drug group were 75.0% and 50.0%;there was statistical significance(P<0.05). There was statistically significant difference in HAMD and CGI-SI scores be-tween two groups(P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Small-dose of perospirone can improve therapeutic efficacy of paroxetine in the treatment of elderly depression with less side effect and good safety.

Objective: To clone the full length cDNA encoding diketide CoA synthase (DCS) gene which plays an important role in curcumin biosynthesis pathway in Amomum villosum, and to provide the basis for the further studies on biosynthesis and gene regulation of curcumin. Methods: According to the annotation of root transcriptome of A. villosum, primers were designed and cDNA of DCS gene was cloned from A. villosum by PCR. Results: The complete coding sequence of DCS gene was 1 170 bp and it encoded a protein of 389 amino acids. The deduced DCS amino acid sequence exhibited 96% identity to the DCS of Curcumae Longae and 66%-69% identity to the chalcone synthase (CHS) of Narcissus tazetta. Phylogenetic analysis on the amino acid sequence of DCS with those of other plants showed that DCS was closely related to Curcumae Longae. Conclusion: The DCS gene is cloned from A. villosum for the first time. This research lays a foundation for studying the gene expression pattern and regulatory functions of DCS in curcumin biosynthesis.

Since the information supplied by the paternity testing of alleged parents was less than that of standard triplet parentage testing,so the paternity index (PI) calculating methods of standard triplet parentage testing was not suitable for calculating the PI value of alleged parents.In order to establish a more precise method for calculating PI value of alleged parents with STR typing results,the first thing is to summarize the standard triplet PI calculating formulas according to the Essen Mller theory.These formulas are 1/p,1/2p,1/p+q,1/2p+2q.This article reports a new PI calculating method in case of paternity testing of alleged parents.Compared with other methods,the new method for calculating Y value either considering random man and random female or considering the alleged father(mother)and random female(man).

Objective The purpose of this paper is to study PGM1 genotyping by PCR RFLP.Method 300 unrelated individuals of Han were genotyped using PCR RFLP. The target amplificaton products of extron 4 and 8 of PGM1 gene were digested by Bgl II and Nla III respectively.The digested DNA fragments were typed by PAGE.Result This PGM1 RFLP system can discriminate 9 genotypes with Dp of 0 7450 in Han population.Compared with conventional PAGIEF, 1+2- and 1-2+ cant be differentiated and the rare genotypes also cant be detected by this method.The advantage of this method was PGM1 genotyping successfully in bloodstains stored for 25 years and with 0 1ng genomic DNA.PGM1 RFLP method is useful for forensic identification.

The study is aimed to investigate the effect of plant growth regulators on yield and quality of the Salvia miltiorrhiza. The plant growth regulators was spraying on Salvia plants in July or August in field experiment, then the yield, ingredient content and the antioxidant activity were determined. The results showed that plant growth regulator 'Zhuanggenling' could increase the yield of Salvia with root-planting by 38.45%. Plant growth regulator 'Duoxiaozuo' could increase the yield of Salvia with seedling planting by 14.19%. Both plant growth regulator significantly reduced the antioxidant activity of Salvia in vitro, but they had no significant effect on active ingredient contents.
