Objective To establish a simple and rapid new method for DNA extraction of FTA bloodstain samples.Methods Genomic DNA was extracted from FTA bloodstains of 1.2mm diameter by FTA-DNA direct extraction and FTA routine method respectively,and their genotypes were analyzed using ABI IdentifilerTM kit in 10?l and 25?l of reaction volume respectively.Results For 25?l of reaction volume,all DNA extracted by two different methods was successfully genotyped.For 10?l of reaction volume,however,the typing success rate of DNA extracted by FTA routine method was significantly lower than those by FTA-DNA direct extraction procedure.Using FTA routine method,the value of RFU ranged from 100 to 2000,and the peak imbalance result from preferential amplification of the smaller allele was a common phenomenon.Moreover,allelic dropout occurred in approximately nineteen percent of samples,and this was not obviously improved even if performed by automatic DNA workstation.However,using FTA-DNA direct extraction procedure,the typing results were similar to those in 25?l of reaction volume,and better results can be obtained using automatic DNA workstation.Conclusion The FTA-DNA direct extraction method is simple and rapid,and can be used to automatic establishment of DNA database with FTA bloodstains.

AIM: To further investigate the immunologic mechanism of myasthenia gravis(MG). METHODS: Acetylcholine receptor antibodies(AchRab) and presynaptic membrane antibodies (PsMab) was determined by ELISA in 285 cases of MG patients. Tumor necrosis factor- alpha(TNF-?) and RBC-C3b receptor rosette rate(RBC-C3bRR)and RBC-IC rosette rate (RBC-ICR)was determined in 202 patients with MG. Furthermore, the peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets was examined in 104 cases MG patients. RESULTS: The positive rates of the AchRab and PsMab in MG were very significantly higher than that of control.The positive rate of PsMab in patients with negative AchRab was very significantly higher than that of patients with the positive AchRab.In 202 MG patients, the TNF-? was significantly higher, but the RBC-C3bRR was significantly lower than those of control, while the RBC-ICR has no significant change. CONCLUSION: MG is an autoimmune disease with damaged postsynaptic membrane by the AchRab, and some patients with both the AchRab and PsMab could manifest disfunction in the postsynaptic and presynaptic membrane. While the patients who just has the PsMab maybe damaged only in the presynaptic membrane. Other body fluid immune or/and cell immune mechanism may be involved in MG patients without AchRab and PsMab.

Objective To investigate the gene expressions of IL-1 and TNF-? in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) and lung tissues in mice with pulmonary fibrosis(PF) at various periods and to study the effects of cytokines on pulmonary fibrosis.Methods Forty male mice were randomly divided into two groups:experimental group(n=30) and control group(n=10),and poured respectively by bleomycin solutions and saline and killed on the 3rd,7th,14th,28th and 56th day.RT-PCR method was used to analyse the mRNA expressions of IL-1 and TNF-?.Results ① The expressions of IL-1 mRNA and TNF-? mRNA in BALF in experimental group were higher than those in control group(P

Thirty cases of pituitary stalk interruption syndrome were divided into normal height (group 1) and short stature (group 2).There was no significant difference in growth hormone or insulin-like growth factor-Ⅰ levels between two groups(P＞0.05).Expected height and body mass index in group 1 were higher than those in group 2,while testosterone,cortisol,and FT4 were lower.Height were positively correlated with age,expected height,birth weight,and body mass index.The height of patients with pituitary stalk interruption syndrome depended on both genetic factors and the hormones from pituitary-target gland.

With the development of the medicine industry and the expansion of global commu-nication and cooperation , more and more Chinese higher vocational college students who major in pharmaceutical management and administration are aware of the demands and are trying to master English for Specific Purpose (ESP) for their better future development. The necessity, course orienta-tion, curriculum design and teaching method for opening ESP course in pharmaceutical management and administration major of higher vocational college were studied in this paper.

Objective To study the value of using endoscopy iodine staining combined detecting the expression of p53, survivin and telomerase in the diagnosis of early esophageal carcinoma and precancerous lesions. Methods Three hundred patients who received routine gastrescopy and had high risk of esophageal carcinoma were examined by the iodine dyeing on their esophageal mucosa with 2. 5% Lugol solu-tion. Multiple biopsies were taken from the unstained or light-stained areas when their diameters were over 5mm for pathology diagnosis. The expression of p53, survivin and telomerase were detected by immunohistochemical staining. Results With the Lugol staining method, the incidences of light, moderate and high grade dysplasia and early esophageal carcinoma were 16. 3% ,9. 7% ,3.7% and 4. 3% respectively. The expression of p53, survivin and telomerase were related and the unstained were related to the expression of p53, survivin and telomerase in dysplasia and early esophageal carcinoma. Using endoscopy iodine staining combined testing p53, survivin and telomerase showed sensitiv-ity of 100%, specificity of 92. 3% and accuracy of 91.8% to diagnose of early esophageal carcinoma and high grade dysplasia. Conclusion Lugol solution chromoendscopy combined assay of p53, survivin and telomersse might be useful in the diagnosing early esophageal carcino-ma and precancerous lesion.

To investigate the chemical constituents of A. barbadensis, aqueous extract of the plant was subjected to preparative medium pressure liquid chromatography (MPLC). The chemical structures were mainly determined by spectroscopic evidences (UV, IR, HR-MS, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HSQC, 1H-1H COSY and HMBC) and chemical methods. A new O, O, O-triglucosylated naphthalene derivative, together with two known 6-phenyl-2-pyrone derivatives and four 5-methylchromones, were isolated and identified as 1-((3-((4- O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-beta-D-xylopyranosyloxymethyl)-1-hydroxy-8-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyloxy)naphthalene-2-y])-ethanone (1), 10-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl aloenin (2), aloenin B (3), aloesin (4), 8-C-glucosyl-(R)-aloesol (5), 8-C-glucosyl-7-O-methyl-(S)-aloesol (6), and isoaloeresin D (7). Compound 1 is a novel naphthalene derivative and named as aloveroside B, compounds 2-3 are isolated from this Aloe species for the first time.

Objective To explore the value of endothelial dysfunction assessment in predicating major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients.Methods A prospective cohort study included 136 end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients from Jan 1,2009 to Dec 31,2011 was conducted.Endothelial function was assessed by flowmediated dilation (FMD) of brachial artery.Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate survival rate.The survival difference between the two groups was compared by the log-rank test.Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression was used to determine the independent risk factors of MACCE.Results In the follow-up period,18 patients in low FMD (FMD≤2.7％) group occurred MACCE,and 13 patients in high FMD (FMD ＞ 2.7％) group occurred MACCE.Compared with high FMD group,MACCE-free survival rate in the low FMD group had a significantly decreased (x2=4.190,P=0.041).Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that higher level of total cholesterol,lower FMD,longer PD time and higher levels of hs-CRP were all independent predictors of MACCE.Conclusion Reduced brachial artery FMD is an independent risk factor of MACCE,and the application of FMD contributes to the risk stratification of cardiac and cerebrovascular disease in PD patients.
