CYP2D6 is an important drug-metabolizing enzyme. The polymorphism of CYP2D6 leads to metabolism difference and the different reactions of drugs in the individuals and different races are normal phenomenon in clinical medication. CYP2D6*10 is an important subtype in Asian people and 51.3% Chinese are classified with this subtype. To obtain recombinant active CYP2D6*1/CYP2D6*10 in baculovirus system by optimizing coexpression with CYPOR, and detect their activity to catalyze dextromethorphan, three recombinants pFastBac-CYP2D6*1, pFastBac-CYP2D6*10 and pFastBac-CYPOR were constructed and transformed into DH10Bac cell to obtain the recombinant Bacmid-CYPOR, Bacmid-CYP2D6*1 and Bacmid-CYP2D6*10. And then the recombinant CYP2D6*1 and CYP2D6*10 virus were obtained by transfecting Sf9. Then homogenate protein activity was determined with dextromethorphan as substrate. The multiple of infection (MOI) and its ratio of recombinant CYP2D6 virus to CYPOR virus were adjusted by detecting the activity of the homogenate protein. The Km and Vmax are 26.67 +/- 2.71 micromol x L(-1) (n=3) and 666.7 +/- 56.78 pmol x nmol(-1) (CYP2D6) x min(-1) (n=3) for CYP2D6*1 to catalyze dextromethaphan. The Km and Vmax are 111.36 +/- 10.89 micromol x L(-1) (n=3) and 222.2 +/- 20.12 pmol x nmol(-1) (CYP2D6) x min(-1) (n=3) for CYP2D6*10 to catalyze dextromethorphan. There is significant difference between CYP2D6*1 and CYP2D6*10 for Vmax and Km (P < 0.01). The clearance ratio of CYP2D6*1 is 25.0 and the clearance ratio of CYP2D6*10 is 2.0. The expressed CYP2D6*1 and CYP2D6*10 are useful tools to screen the metabolism profile of many xenobiotics and endobiotics in vitro, which are benefit to understand individual metabolism difference.
2.Application study of MATRICS consensus cognitive battery in first-episode schizophrenia patients
China Modern Doctor 2015;(21):14-17,20
Objective To explore the characteristics of cognitive function in patients with the first-episode and chronic schizophrenia. Methods 83 cases of first-episode schizophrenia patients, 77 cases of chronic schizophrenia patients and 75 healthy volunteers from January 2013 to June 2014 were selected. MATRICS consensus cognitive battery (MCCB) test was conducted on them and their cognitive profile patterns and characteristics of cognitive function impairment were analyzed. Results Compared with the healthy control group, the first-episode schizophrenia patients and chronic schizophrenia patients got hurt in psychomotor speed, attention, working memory, verbal learning and memory, visual learning and memory, reasoning and problem solving ability, social cognition and other areas in the MCCB (P<0.05). There were differences in comparing working memory and social cognition of the first-episode schizophrenia patients and chronic schizophrenia patients (P<0.05). Conclusion The first-episode schizophrenia patients get less injury than chronic schizophrenia patients in the working memory and social cognition. Whether first-episode schizophrenia pa-tients or chronic schizophrenia patients, they are impaired compared with the normal population in cognitive function.

Objective To assess the value of small bowel computed tomography ( CT ) scan combined with single balloon enteroscopy ( SBE) for the diagnosis and treatment of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome ( PJS) . Methods CT scan was performed in cases that were clinically suspected or proved PJS for the number, size, location and relative acute complications of polyps in the small intestine. Single balloon enteroscopy was used to resect small intestinal polyps according to CT findings. The number of observed polyps in diagnosis, numbers of resected polyps, procedure duration and complications in endoscopic therapy were analysed. Results Polyps were found in the small intestine in all patients. There were 68 polyps whose diameter was 1-4 cm. Nine SBE procedures were completed in these patients. The mean procedure time was 120 min. A total of 65 polyps were detected by SBE with 95. 59% concordance to CT results. A total of 52 polyps were resected under endoscopy, the largest diameter of which was 4 cm. No complications were observed after SBE. Conclusion Combination of small bowel CT scan and SBE is safe and effective for diagnosis and treatment of PJS patients, which is worth recommendation.

Objective To analyze the clinical, imaging characteristics and NOTCH3 mutations of cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with the subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) in Henan, China.Methods CADASIL patients diagnosed by gene or biopsy in People′s Hospital of Zhengzhou University between 2012-2016 were recruited.Clinical and imaging features of these patients were analyzed retrospectively.The distribution of NOTCH3 gene mutations hotspots was described in Henan region at the same time.Results There were 37 patients from 19 families who were diagnosed as CADASIL by genetic testing or biopsy, 27 of whom had symptoms of CADASIL.Two families were confirmed by pathological examination and 17 by genetic testing.Of these 17 families, 13 mutations were found.Mutations in exon 11 were found in eight families, in exon 4 were detected in four families, and in exon 13 were found in two families.Mutation in exons 3, 8 and 20 was detected in one family respectively.Most patients presented with stroke and several presented with cognitive decline.Twelve patients had been attacked by risk factors.Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed on 22 patients.White-matter lesions were distributed in brain stem, basal ganglia, subcortical, temporal pole, external capsule.There were 19 patients with white-matter lesions in temporal pole and seven in capsula externa, showed as a high signal in T2WI.Conclusions CADASIL patients can be associated with risk factors.T2WI hyperintensities in the anterior temporal lobe were more common than that in the capsular external.Exon 11 and exon 4 were the hotspots for the NOTCH3 mutation in Henan patients.
