Objective To construct Nedd4 knockout bone marrow-derived macrophages(BMDM) cell line by CRISPR/Cas9 technology and to provide an effective tool for studying the function and mechanism of Nedd4 in macrophage.Methods First,three high-grade sgRNAs targeting Nedd4 gene exons were screened using the online tool before synthesized sgRNAs were inserted into the PX330 plasmid respectively.Secondly,the recombinant plasmids were transferred into BMDM cells and monoclonal cells were obtained by limiting dilution method.The protein levels of NEDD4 in monoclonal cells were detected by Western blotting.Finally,the DNA sequence of the monoclonal cells was confirmed by sequence analysis.Results One Nedd4 knockout BMDM cell line was obtained.The sequencing result showed that the Nedd4 gene had 16bp deletion mutation in this cell line.Conclusion The Nedd4 knockout BMDM macrophage cell line constructed by CRISPR/Cas9 technology will be a useful tool for studying the function and mechanism of Nedd4 in BMDM cells.

0.05). Conclusions In han-nationality people in Northern China, DRB1*04 is positively associated with Eales′ disease, suggesting that DRB1*04 may confer a major influence on Eales′ disease. Turbulence of immune function begotten by infect-agents attack may occur in the individuals with Eales′ disease due to the specific hereditary diathesis of HLA, which may cause the occurrence and development of Eales disease.

Objective To investigate the effect of over-expression of ROBO4 on permeability of human renal glomerular endothelial cells (HRGECs) in high glucose medium.Methods HRGECs infected with recombinant lentiviral vector ROBO4 were cultured in high glucose or low glucose medium in vitro.The protein levels of ROBO4 and ARF6 in each group were detected by Western blotting.The endothelial permeability was measured by the effiux of fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran (FITC-Dextran)permeated through the monolayer endothelial cells using Transwell cell model system.The cell viability after lentivirus transfection was measured by CCK8 assay.Results The transfection rate of lentiviruses in HRGECs reached 80％ 72h after,and obvious overexpression of ROBO4 protein was in transformed cells compared with the empty vector group (P＜0.05).The lentivirus-mediated ROBO4 transfection did not affect cell viability of HRGECs.Compared with the low glucose group,the expression of ROBO4 increased obviously after 12h,but declined after 24h (P＜0.05),and reached to minimun after 72h (P＜0.05).On the contrary,the expression of ARF6 increased after 12h,and the increase reached to the maximum after 72h (P＜0.05).Furthermore,the vascular permeability increased gradually after 24h,and reached to the maximum after 72h (P＜0.05) in high glucose group.Compared with the empty vector group,the over-expression of ROBO4 inhibited the expression of ARF6 significantly,and the FITC-Dextran permeability reduced obviously.Conclusion Over-expression of ROBO4 may significantly enhance the barrier functions of HRGEC in high glucose medium,and ROBO4 activation may be a potential therapeutic approach in diabetic nephropathy.

The improvement of electrophoresis for DNA fingerprinting has been carried out. The time of electrophoresis was shortened,and 1/3-1/2 of reagents were saved. The minimal amount of DNA samples for DNA analysis was 0.8?g. It is worthy to popularize and apply in practice.

Objective To investigate the relationship between killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors(KIR)and HLA by distribution of KIR gene in leukemia patients and their siblings who have same HLA-A/B/DR typing.Methods KIR genotypes were detected by PCR-SSP on 78 patients and their siblings who have same HLA-A/B/DR typing.Results There were 48.72%in 78 patients who had same KIR genotypes with their siblings while the 44.87%patients had different KIR genotypes with their siblings.There was no difference in frequency between patients and their siblings(P＞0.05).There were no differences in frequency among chronic myelocytic leukemia(CML),non acute lymphoblagtic leukemia(NALL)and acute lymphoblagtie leukemia(ALL)but the frequency of KIR2DS4 in CML was higher than others.Condusion The KIR gene and HLAⅠ antigen are heredity independently and relatively stable.The factor of disease has little effect on KIR gene.

G in exon 2. This results in an amino acid change from His to Asp at codon 74. Conclusion The novel allele has been confirmed as a new HLA allele and it is officially named HLA-A*0290 by WHO Nomenclature Committee for Factors of the HLA System in Oct. 2005.

Objective To evaluate the clinical feature of malignant ameloblastoma. Methods A review of 25 cases of malignant ameloblastoma was presented with respect to age, sex, primary site and times of recurrence, site and time of metastasis, results of follow up, pathological type. Results Male patients outnumbered female patients by 1.5 to1. The median age at which the primary tumor was first treated was 30.5 years. The primary sites were mandible(17), maxilla(5), tibia(1), rib(1), ulna(1). The most metastases were found in lung(80%), with cervical lymph nodes and liver each representing 24% and 12% of the metastatic sites. Other sites of metastasis included brain(1), femur(1), thoracic spine(1), spleen(1), myocardial(1), mediastinum(1). The median times of primary recurrence was 2.5 times. The median survival time after metastasis was 2 years. There were four pathological types which were follicular type(4), plexiform type(2), acanthomatous type(1), granular type(1). Conclusins Multiple recurrences developed in most of the 25 patients. The time between diagnosis of primary tumor and appearance of metastasis in 25 patients was long. The most frequent sites of metastasis was lung and cervical lymph nodes. Early adequate resection of the primary tumor to avoid repeated surgical intervention is advocated to prevent tumor spread.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of multi-functional fire needling plus auricular plaster therapy for moderate to severe acne vulgaris.Methods One hundred and fifty patients with moderate to severe acne vulgaris were randomly allocated to treatment and control groups, 75 cases each. Both groups were first given bloodletting at Ear apex and Helix 4. Then the treatment group received multi-functional fire needling plus auricular plaster therapy and the control group, auricular plaster therapy alone. The symptom and sign score was recorded in the two groups before and after treatment. The clinical therapeutic effects were compared between the two groups.Results There was a statistically significant pre-/post-treatment difference in the symptom and sign score in the two groups (P<0.01). There was a statistically significant post-treatment difference in the symptom and sign score between the two groups (P<0.05). The total efficacy rate and the cure and marked efficacy rate were 98.6% and 88.7%, respectively, in the treatment group and 93.2% and 60.8%, respectively, in the control group. There was a statistically significant difference in the cure and marked efficacy rate between the two groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Multi-functional fire needling plus auricular plaster therapy is an effective way to treat moderate to severe acne vulgaris.
