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 determine the mutation spectrum of the PAH gene in PKU children in Ningxia, six exons of PAH gene were sequenced in each of the 30 phenylketonuria (PKU) children. Methods 30 children diagnosed as PKU by the neonatal sereening and/or GC/MS analysis in Ningxia were enrolled in this study. Meanwhile, 30 normal children were served as controls. The exons 3、5、6、7、11 and 12 of the PAH gene were ampliifed by polymerase chain reaction. The amplicons were analyzed by single strand conformation polymorphism and sequencing. Results Mutations were identiifed for 51 of 60 alleles in this study, representing a mutation detection rate of 85%. A total of 16 different causative mutations were detected, including 8 missense mutations (R 241 C、R 243 Q、R 252 Q、G 257 V、R 359 K、R 408 Q、R 413 P、Q 419 R), 3 splicing mutations (IVS 4-1 G?>?A、Y 204 C、IVS 7+2 T?>?A), 3 nonsense mutations (R 111 X、Q 160 X、Y 356 X), 1 synonymous mutation (V 399 V) and 1 deletion (N 183 del). R 243 Q ( 18 . 3%) had the highest frequency of PAH mutations, and then Y 204 C ( 11 . 7%)、IVS 4-1 G?>?A ( 10 . 0%)、R 111 X ( 6 . 7%) and IVS 7+2 T?>?A ( 6 . 7%). For the ifrst time in China, two novel mutations, deletion mutation N 183 del (C. 547-549 delGAA) in exon 6 and missense mutation R 359 K (C. 1078 G?>?A) in exon 11 , were identiifed in PKU children. Two silent mutations, V 245 V (C. 735 G?>?A) and Q 232 Q (C. 696 A?>?G), were observed in PKU children and the controls, but there were no signiifcant difference between them (P?>?0 . 05 ). Conclusions The most common mutations were missense and R 243 Q had the highest frequency of mutation. The identiifcation of 2 novel mutations expands the spectrum of Chinese PAH mutations.
