Objective To investigate the influence of neuro-specific DNA repair gene Nbn on the development of granular cells in hippocampus of monatal mouse. Methods The hippocampus development of postnatal mouse was evaluated by comparing the morphological differences of granular cells in hippocampus between the Nbn gene knockout mice (Nbn-CNS-Del) and the controls (Nbn-CNS-Ctr). Serial sections, immunohistochemistry and stereology methods were used to quantitatively analyze the development of granular cells in hippocampus of mice on the postnatal day 7, 14 and 21 (P7d, P14d and P21d). Results In Nbn-CNS-Ctr group, the granular layer in hippocampus manifested "C" in shape, the section area of granular layer was increased, and so was the cell body of granular cells in hippocampus during P7d to P21d; the inner arm granular cells in granular layer of hippocampus emerged on P7d, and most obvious changes occurred during P7d to P14d. While in Nbn-CNS-Del group, the granular layer in "C" shape were seen to form in most of the specimens during P7d to P21d, though they were sparsely distributed. Compared with that of the mice in Nbn-CNS-Ctr group, the development of granular layer in hippocampus of the mice in Nbn-CNS-Del group lagged obviously, and the sectional area of granular cells decreased significantly (P

In order to explore the effect of flipped classroom in theoretical teaching of biochemistry,lipids metabolism was selected to carry out four stages flipped classroom.The teaching effect of flipped classroom was evaluated by test and questionnaire survey of students.The results indicated that most undergraduate students could accept novel teaching method.However,the consciousness and the ability of students' independent learning need to be further improved.It also takes time for the students to adapt to the transition from traditional teaching to flipped c1assroom.In summary,the specificity of Biochemistry may limit the carrying out of flipped classroom to some extent.Therefore,which kind of teaching method is adopted depends on the biochemistry theoretical content.Our work may provide some references for further application of flipped classroom in biochemistry teaching.

Objective To explore clinical significance of subtemporal decompression in traumatic total anterior circulation infarcts(TTACI).Methods 24 TTACI cases accepted subtemporal decompression were analyzed including CT scan feature, pre operative observation to temporal superficial artery, operative cranial pressure classification and blood circulation in cortical small artery.Results Clinical symptom compared between before and after operation: good 4 cases, unchanged 14 cases, dead 6 cases. CT scan showed infarct areas became smaller in 4 cases, unchanged in 9 cases, larger in 2 cases three months after operation.Conclusion Subtemporal decompression cannot reduce the areas of infarcts and mortality, nor improve neurological function and promote quality of survivor.

Objective:To establish a DNA typing method for HLA-I antigens with medium resolution method by DNA chip technique.Methods:The chip was made with specific medium distinguish-typing probes designed according to gene frequency of HLA-I alleles from Northern Chinese. Unsymmetrical PCR was used to amplify HLA-I exon2,3,and then the PCR products labeled and hybridized with probes on the chip.Typing of HLA-I was certified by scanning the hybridizing signals of through a set of computer software.Results:HLA-I alleles were successfully typed in 30 clinical samples .This medium-distinguishing probes were able to discern 57 HLA-I alleles accurately.Conclusion:DNA typing of HLA-I by chip has been proven to be a high-resolution and high-specific method. It is able to check out the new alleles that can not be distinguished by other methods with the same resolution., and it is more intuitional and more suitable for clinical application .

Objective To discuss the value of medium resolution typing method for HLA-B antigens of Northern Chinese by DNA chip technique.Methods The chip was made with specific medium distinguish typing probes designed according to gene frequency of HLA-B alleles from Northern Chinese.Unsymmetrical PCR was used to amplify HLA-B exon 2 and 3, then labeled PCR products and hybridize with probes on the chip.Certified the typing of HLA-B by analysed and scanned the signals of hybridize through a set of computer software.Results HLA-B alleles were successfully typed in 30 clinical samples. This medium distinguish probes were able to discern 42 HLA-B alleles from the scope of HLA-B 7~83. Using it we can distinguish B14,73 and 82 three new alleles contrast to PCR-SSP methods.Conclusions DNA typing of HLA-B by chip was proven to be a high-resolution and high-specificity method. It is able to check out the multitudinous samples in one DNA chip and it is more suitable for clinical application.

Objective To investigate the effect of moderate static magnetic fields (SMF) on secretion of inflammato?ry factors tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) in human monocytic leukemic cell line THP-1. Methods THP-1 cells at logarithmic phase were divided into control group and magnetic treatment group. CCK-8 method was used to detect cell proliferation after THP-1 cells were exposed to 60 mT, 200 mT and 400 mT static magnetic fields at 18, 24 and 48 h. Then THP-1 cells were divided into control group, magnetic treatment group, LPS activation group and LPS+SMF treatment group. When magnetic treatment group and LPS+SMF treatment group were ex?posed to SMF at 18, 24 and 48 h, the levels of the cytokines TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 were determined by ELISA. Results (1) 60 mT, 200 mT and 400 mT SMF had no significant effects on cell proliferation in THP-1 cells (P>0.05). (2)THP-1 cells secreted more TNF-αand IL-6 in 24 h than 18 h in every group, while IL-8 didn′t change. Compared with 24 h, the secre?tion of TNF-αdecreased and IL-6 didn′t change, while IL-8 increased in 48 h. At three sampled time THP-1 cells of LPS activation group secreted more TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 than those of control group and magnetic treatment group. After magnetic treatment THP-1 cells of LPS+SMF treatment group secreted less TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 than those of LPS activation group (P<0.05). Conclusion Static magnetic field may have some inhibitory effects on release of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 from THP-1 cells, which can provide basic data for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.

Objective To investigate the expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor?2(HER?2)and Survivin protein in gastric cancer tissue,and explore its relationship with clinicopathological characteristics. Methods Immunohistochemistry assay was used for detection of HER?2 and Survivin protein expression in 70 gastric cancer biopsy samples. The relationship with the clinicoathological parameters in patients with gas?tric cancer was analyzed. Results The expression of HER?2 and Survivin protein was correlated with tumor differentiation ,TNM stage and lymph node metastasis(all P<0.05),but not with sex,age,the diameter of tumor. The correlation analysis of positive rate and the semi?quantitative pro?tein expression showed that the expression of Survivin and HER?2 was significantly positively related(all P<0.01). Conclusion The positive ex?pression of HER?2 and Survivin protein in gastric cancer correlates with tumor differentiation ,TNM stage and lymph node metastasis. HER?2 ex?pression significantly correlates with Survivin at the protein level in gastric cancer tissues.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of mild hypothermia on cells in the CA_1 region of the hippocampus in gerbils following global ischemia-reperfusion injury(IRI),and to explore their mechanism. Methods IRI models were established in 75 gerbils.Any changes in TUNEL positive cells and the expression of Bax and Cytochrome C were then observed in normothermic(N) ,hypothermic(H)and sham(S) groups through immu- nohistochemistry methods.Results In the H group(as compared with the N group)apoptotic cells in the CA_1 sub- field of the hippocampus significantly decreased.The expression of Bax and Cyt C at 3 h,6 h and 1 d were de- creased,and the expression fastigium was delayed.Conclusion Mild hypothermia can moderate and delay cell ap- optosis,and its mechanism might be related with reducing and delaying the expression of Bax and Cyt C released by mitochondria.
