The systemic anaphylaxis murine model was induced by the injection of oval albumin (OVA)in aluminum hydroxide gel adjuvant. The death rate varied with the mouse species: 40-90% in Swiss and 69% in average,no death in C57BL/6 and 615 but some symptoms. developed. Swiss mice was adopted in this experiment.90% of mice pretreated with Lx remained living after allergen challenge,but only 20% in normal control. For elucidation the possible mechanism of Lx action,the study was carried out on detection of anti-OVA IgE specific antibody and histamin concentration in lung tissues. Passive cutaneous anaphylaxis(PCA)titers for anti-OVA IgE antibody in serum ranged from undilution to 160 in control group and not detectable in group pretreated with Lx. In addition, after absorption of PCA positive sera with anti-IgG antibody.the PCA activity was not affected. Histamin content was 1.54?0.24?g/ml in Lx treated mice caopared to 2.69?0.67?g/ml in control group(p

BACKGROUND: Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are involved in the formation of various tissues including bone, cartilage, tendon, and ligament. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) promotes angiogenesis by increasing the permeability and migration of endothelial cells.OBJECTIVE: To construct a co-expressing vector of human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) and vascular endothelial growth factor 165 (VEGF165), and observe the expression of BMP2 and VEGF165 in human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs).DESIGN: Observation control trail.SETTING: Department of Plastic Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Luzhou Medical College and Plastic Surgery Hospital of Peking Union Medical College, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences.MATERIALS: The MSCs derived from the healthy adult volunteers of marrow donors. pIRES-EGFP-hVEGF165 containing total length of cDNA sequence of human VEGF165 gene was provided by Dr. Cheng Ting from Plastic Surgery Hospital of Peking Union Medical College. pSP65-hBMP2 containing total length of cDNA sequence of human BMP2 gene was provided by Dr. Guo Ximin from the Academy of Military Medical Sciences. Enkaryotic expression vector pIRESneo (Clontech Company) Pyrobest DNA Polymerae, restriction enzyme, DNA ligase and plasmid extraction kit, DNA Fragment Purification Kit (TaKaRa Company), LiorfectamineTM liposome transfection kit, DMEM medium, trypase, TRIzoIRNA extraction kit (Gibco BRL), Omniscript RT kit (Qiagen), TaqplusDNA polymerase (Promega), PMSF, leupeptin, aprotinin, chymostatin (Sigma), protease inhibitor, PVDF membrane (Amersham-Pharmacia Biotech), rabbit anti-human BMP2 antibody and VEGF monoclonal antibody (Santa Cruz Company), goat anti-rabbit lgG-peroxydase (Wuhan Boster), G418 (Ameresco Company in U.S).METHODS: The experiment was conducted in the Affiliated Hospital of Luzhou Medical College and the Plastic Surgery Hospital, Peking Union Medical College, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between June 2005 and April 2006.hBMP2 and hVEGF165 cDNA were directional cloned into multiple clone sites of the eukaryotic expression vector pIRESneo. The recombinant plasmid was identified by restrictive enzyme Xho Ⅰ/Bgl Ⅱ digestion analysis and DNA sequencing. Liposome-mediated gene transfer method was used to transfect hBMSCs. For observation, the transfected cells were divided into IRES-hBMP2-VEGF165 group, pIRES-hBMP2 group, pIRES-VEGF165 group and empty vector group, which were transfected with pIRES-hBMP2-VEGF165, pIRES-hBMP2, pIRES-VEGF165 and pIRES-neo. Meanwhile, the same number nontransfected cells were selected as blank control group. The reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Weszern blot were employed to observe the expression and secretion of hBMP2 and hVEGF165 gene and protein.expression vector hBMP2 and hVEGF165 gene sequence were the same as reported after restrictive enzyme EcoRI and Bgl Ⅱ digestion analysis and pIRES-BMP2 gene sequencing, which showed that the recombinant plasmid pIRES-hBMP2-VEGF165 highly expressed hBMP2-mRNA and VEGF165-mRNA, but the non-transfected or transfected with pIRES-hBMP2-VEGF165 or pIRES-hBMP2 secreted a great quantity of hBMP2, but that non-transfected or transfected with pIRES-VEGF165 or empty vector secreted only little.CONCLUSION: The co-expressing vector of hBMP2 and hVEGF165 can be expressed stably in hBMSCs.

Objective To study the effect of low-dose FK778 in preventing chronic renal al- lograft rejection in rats.Methods The rat model of chronic renal allograft rejection was established by using micro-surgery technique.The recipients were divided into two groups.The recipients in the study group were treated with FK778 at a dose of 5mg?kg~(-1)?d~(-1)dissolved in carboxymethylcellulose by means of gavage and the controls were treated with carboxymethylcellulose.Urinary protein con- centrations were measured every 4 weeks for 24 weeks.On 24th week after operation,the rats were killed and the kidney grafts were taken out for histological and immunohistological examinations as well as quantitative real-time RT-PCR analysis.Results After 24 weeks of treatment,proteinuria, the severity of chronic rejection,glomeruIosclerosicytes and monocytes/macrophages in the study group were significantly milder than in control group.And the expression of TGF-?mRNA and PDGF-B mRNA was significantly reduced in the study group as compared with that in the control group.Conclusion Low-dose of FK778 might prevent the rats from chronic renal allograft rejection.

Objective Genotype data of nine CODIS STR loci were gathered to examine the features of population differentiation and gene flow of seven Xinjiang minorities.Methods Heterozygosity,Nei's coefficient of genetic differentiation,Nei's genetic distance and Wright's F-statistics were calculated. Statistical tests using exact method were performed to measure the level of differentiation.Phylogenetic trees were constructed by Mega;AMOVA was processed by Arlequin.R-matrix model had been applied to describe the patterns of gene flow.Results It shows that average genetic heterogeneity for each population was above 0.7 with genetic differentiation coefficient below 2%.Statistical tests for population differentiation were significant for most of the loci.Phylogenetic analysis and AMOVA showed that all populations were divided into three main groups.The R-matrix analysis reflected that Uygur,Kirgiz and Ozbek had more amounts of gene flow than other populations,while the pattern of Hui was more isolated.Conclusion The seven minorities in Xinjiang are independent populations,while the level of differentiation is at average.The relationship in evolution is not far from each other,with wide gene flow.

Objective: To study the preventive actions of ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide(GLP) against kidney damage induced by cisplatin. Methods : Female Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal saline(NS) group, cisplatin(CDDP) group, GLP group, CDDP+GLP group. The changes of Scr, BUN, MDA, SOD were measured and renal structure was observed after 5 days by injecting drugs. Results : The contents of serum Scr and BUN of CDDP group were significantly highter than that of NS group. The activity of RBC SOD reduced and the contents of serum MDA increased. The contents of renocortical tissue MDA increased and the activity of SOD declined in renocortical tissue. The contents of serum Scr and BUN of GLP+CDDP group were significantly lower than that of CDDP group. The activity of RBC SOD increased and the contents of serum MDA declined. The concents of renocortical tissue MDA declined and the activity of SOD increased in renocortical tissue. The pathological slice indicated that renal structure was significantly improved. Conclusion : GLP may reduce cisplatin nephrotoxicity and its mechanism may be correlative with that GLP inhibited the blood and renocortical tissue lipid peroxidation increasing.
