Objective To perform fetal karyotyping by percutaneous umbilical blood sampling guided by color Doppler ultrasonography in fetuses with congenital cardiac anomalies. Methods Fetal blood samples obtained by color Doppler ultrasound-guided cordocentesis in 56 fetuses with cardiac abnormalities detected by fetal echocardiography were taken for karyotyping.Fetuses were monitored post operation. Results The procedures were successfully performed in all cases and no procedure-related complications occurred.Six cases with abnormal karyotypes, 1 trisomy 21,2 trisomy 18,1 trisomy 13,1 trisomy AO and 1 cases 47XYY were identified and pre-operation ultrasonography detected multiple system anomalies besides cardiac anomalies in them. Conclusions Color Doppler ultrasonography facilitated percutaneous umbilical blood sampling by clear umbilical vein imaging and shortening the operation time.Abnormal karyotypes in fetuses with cardiac anomalies seemed to be related with multiple system anomalies.

Background and purpose:It has been confirmed that homozygous deletion of p16/p15 gene and its co-deletion of p16/p15 genes were related to the occurrence, progress and prognosis of epithelial ovarian cancer. However, the mono-deletion and co-deletion of the genes has been detected with tissue but not in serum DNA of the epithelial ovarian cancer. In this article, we studied the relationship between homozygous deletion of p16/p15 gene and its co-deletion of p16/p15 genes in serum DNA of the epithelial ovarian cancer.Methods:Primers were used to amplify exon 2 of p16 and exon 2 of p15 gene by polymerase chain reaction. Homozygous deletions of the p16, p15 and co-deletion of p16/p15 genes were studied in either serum DNA of 165 patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, their counterpart lymphocytes DNA, serum DNA of 25 benign ovarian cyst or of 15 health donors.Results:The homozygous deletion rates of either p15 or p16 gene were 27.9%(46/165)and 27.3%(45/165)serum DNA in the patients with epithelial ovarian cancer respectively, while the co-deletion rate of p16/p15 genes was 24.2% (40/165). However, the deletions of p15/p16 genes and its co-deletion were not found in serum DNA of the counterpart lymphocytes,25 benign ovarian cyst and 15 health donors (The P values were 0.000、0.000 and 0.000 respectively). The deletions of either p15 or p16 gene for the patients with stage Ⅰ~Ⅱ were 14.3%(5/35) and 11.4%(4/35), 33.3%(25/75) and 32.0%(24/75) for the patients with stage Ⅲ, 29.1%(16/55) and 30.9% (17/55) for stage Ⅳ, respectively. Although there was no significant differences among the groups, the deletion of p15 and p16 genes in the patients with advanced stage were higher than that with early stage. The deletion was not found to be associated with histopathology of epithelial ovarian cancer.Conclusions:Homozygous deletions of the p16, p15 genes and its co-deletion of p15/p16 genes were commonly found in the serum DNA of epithelial ovarian cancer and might be associated with clinical stage of the disease. It was suggested that detection with serum DNA may be used as a micro-invasive approach and the deletion of genes might served as biological markers for the development and prognosis of the patients with epithelial ovarian cancer.

Objective To establish a time resolved fluoroimmunoassay (TRFIA) method for detecting Glypican 3 (GPC3) and to explore the diagnostic value of serum GPC3 for hepatic carcinoma (HCC). Methods Microplate coated with anti-GPC3 monoclonal antibody 7C8 and GP9 labeled with Eu3+ were used to establish TRFIA kit. The serum concentrations of GPC3 in 41 HCC patients and 44 chronic hepatitis (CH) patients were quantitatively analyzed. AFP was detected by with lowest limit of 2.06 μg/L. The CV of inter and intra assay were 12.25% and 12.91%, respectively. The average serum concentration of GPC3 in HCC patients was (86.68±110.39) μg/L (median: 56.98 μg/L). But in CH patients it was only (14.77±29.48) μg/L, which was significantly lower than that in HCC (Wilcoxon W=1335.00, Z=-4.99, P<0.001). With diagnostic cut-off value set at 42.94 μg/L, the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of TRFIA GPC3 for HCC were 58.5% (24/41) and 95.5%(42/44) respectively. The diagnostic sensitivity of AFP was 46.3% (19/41) in 41 HCC patients, and was raised to 78.0% (32/41) when combined with GPC3. Conclusions Serum GPC3 assay by TRFIA is established and it could increase the diagnostic sensitivity for HCC when combined with AFP.

Aim To investigate the effects of echina-coside ( ECH ) on the learning and memory capacities and brain level of oxygen free radicals of rats with de-mentia induced by amyloid β-peptide. Methods Six-ty Sprague Dawley rats, weighing (300±10) g, were randomly divided with 10 rats pergroup into 6 groups:sham operated group, model, ECH high dose (40 mg ·kg-1·d-1), ECH middle dose (20 mg· kg-1· d-1), ECH low dose (10 mg·kg-1·d-1) and Hup A (Huperzine A, 0. 02 mg·kg-1·d-1) group. Mor-ris maze tests were conducted for evaluating the learn-ing and memory ability. Content of malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO) and activities of superox-ide dismutase ( SOD) and NO synthase ( NOS) in the hippocampus and cortex were detected. ResultsAβ25-35 induced significant learning and memory im-pairment in the rats. Compared with the rats in model group, those treated with ECH at different doses all manifested alleviation of learning and memory impair-ment ( P<0 . 01 , P<0 . 05 ) . Cotents of MDA of ECH treatment group were obviously decreased, while SOD activities were obviously increased, and significantly reduced the release of NO and NOS in the hippocam-pus and cortex brain tissue ( P <0 . 01 , P <0.05 ) . Conclusion ECH can enhance the learning and mem-ory ability in rats with AD, which is presumably relat-ed to accelerating the cleaning of oxygen free radicals and reducing oxidative stress in brain of AD rats.

Aim To investigate the influence of echi-nacoside ( ECH ) on monoaminergic neurotransmitter extracellular of the hippocampus and cerebral cortex in rat model of Alzheimer′s disease ( AD) , and ultimately to provide a theoretical basis for ECH′s improving the ability of learning and memory. Methods 60 male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups with 10 rats in each group : sham operation group, model, ECH groups of low, medium and high doses (10, 20, 40μg ·g-1 ·d-1 ) , and Hup A ( Huperzine A, 0. 02 μg· g-1·d-1) group. The AD rat model was established by abdominal cavity injection with D-galactose and uni-laterally injected with amyloid beta-protein fragment 25-35 ( Aβ25-35 ) into the right hippocampus. Morris wa-ter maze test was used to study the animals′ ability of spatial learning and memory. The synchronous dual-probe dual-channel brain microdialysis sampling tech-nology was applied to collect dialysates from different encephalic areas continuously, and combined with HPLC electrochemical detection were used to measure the extracellular levels of norepinephrine ( NE) , dopa-mine (DA), 5-serotonin (5-HT). Results 1. Com-pared with the sham operation group, the mean escape latency of the model group was significantly prolonged ( P<0. 05 ) , and the time that rats were in the plat-form quadrant was significantly shortened ( P<0. 05 );on the contrary, compared with the model group, the mean escape latency of ECH groups were significantly shortened ( P<0. 05 ) , and the time that rats were in the platform quadrant was significantly extended ( P<0. 05). 2. Compared with the sham operation group, the contents of NE,DA and 5-HT were significantly de-creased in the model group ( P <0. 05 ) . However, compared with the model group , ECH could improve the concentrations of NE, DA, 5-HT in the hippocam-pus and cerebral cortex, and these monoamine levels of the brain regions were restored to near control. Con-clusion ECH can effectively improve the ability of learning and memory of rats with AD, giving a rise to the monoamine neurotransmitter both in hippocampus and cortex, exerting a positive effect on treatment of cognitive dysfunction . The ECH low dose group is sig-nificantly lower than the ECH groups of medium and high doses and Hup A group in improving the ability of learning and memory.
