Objective To investigate the dynamic levels of autophagy after intimal injury of carotid artery. Meth-ods In this study ,40 male SD rats were randomly assigned to operated(n=20)and control groups(n=20). Balloon inju-ry was induced in the left carotid artery in operated groups .Rats in control groups just received carotid artery exposure without injury. Western blot was used to detect the levels of Beclin-1, LC3 and p62 at the third and seventh days. Immu-nofluorescence was used to examine the expression of Beclin-1 and LC3 at the third and seventh days. Results The ex-pression levels of Beclin-1 and LC3 were increased while the levels of P62 were decreased at the third and seventh days after carotid balloon injury. Beclin-1 and LC3 were present in neointima and medintima. The numbers of both Beclin-1 positive cells and LC3 positive cells were increased at the third and seventh days after carotid injury. The numbers of Be-clin-1 positive cells were 18.60 ± 1.34 in neointima and 6.40 ± 0.55 in medintima at third day, (27.6 ± 2.19 in neointima and 6.40±0.55 in medinitima at the seventh day,(all P=0.000,n=5). The numbers of LC3 positive cells were 10.60±1.52 in neointima and 3.00 ± 0.71 in medintima at third day, (P=0.000,n=5;at the seventh day 21.20 ± 2.49;3.00 ± 0.71,P=0.000,n=5). Conclusions This study domenstrates that autophagy was activated after carotid injury and the chang is dy-namic, which may contribute to neointima formation.

The risk factors of high trait anger of juvenile offenders were explored through question naire study in a youth correctional facility of Hubei province,China.A total of 1090 juvenile offenders in Hubei province were investigated by self-compiled social-demographic questionnaire,Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ),and State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory-Ⅱ (STAXI-Ⅱ).The risk factors were analyzed by chi-square tests,correlation analysis,and binary logistic regression analysis with SPSS 19.0.A total of 1082 copies of valid questionnaires were collected.High trait anger group (n=316) was defined as those who scored in the upper 27th percentile of STAXI-Ⅱ trait anger scale (TAS),and the rest were defined as low trait anger group (n=766).The risk factors associated with high level of trait anger included:childhood emotional abuse,childhood sexual abuse,step family,frequent drug abuse,and frequent internet using (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Birth sequence,number of sibling,ranking in the family,identity of the main care-taker,the education level of care-taker,educational style of care-taker,family income,relationship between parents,social atmosphere of local area,frequent drinking,and frequent smoking did not predict to high level of trait anger (P＞0.05).It was suggested that traumatic experience in childhood and unhealthy life style may significantly increase the level of trait anger in adulthood.The risk factors of high trait anger and their effects should be taken into consideration seriously.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the heterozygous genotype and molecular characteristics of Organophosphorus resistance associated with heterozygous Estbeta2 of esterase B2 gene from natural population of Culex pipiens complex.

METHODSGenomic DNA was extracted from natural populations of Culex pipiens complex in Hangzhou. The PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay was applied to type the resistance associated esterase gene. Estbeta2 of esterase B2 gene was identified by PCR-RFLP, and the genotyping for heterozygous Estbeta2 was carried out after restriction enzyme digesting by Bfm I endonuclease.

RESULTSThe DNA was isolated from 207 Culex pipiens respectively, while 156 PCR samples showed positive and the positive rate was 75.36% (156/207). The PCR-RFLP assay of esterase B2 gene revealed that the Estbeta2 was accounted about 28.20% (44/156) in 156 positive samples. There were two genotypes identified, namely homozygous Estbeta2 (90.90%, 30/33) and heterozygous Estbeta2 (9%, 3/33), heterozygous Estbeta2 was in existence of a hybrid form as which combined with Estbeta2 and a subtype (Estbeta2/Estbeta2(1)).

CONCLUSIONHeterozygous Estbeta2 of Organophosphorus resistance associated with esterase genotype was determined in natural population of Culex pipiens, and a genotyping method was established.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the genotypes , allele frequencies and dynamic distribution on resistance associated esterase genes of Culex pipiens complex in Hangzhou.

METHODSThe PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay was applied to type the resistance associated esterase genes, and dynamic surveillance on frequencies of the resistance associated esterase gene of natural population of Culex pipiens complex in Hangzhou during 2003-2005, and phenotype of the resistance associated esterase genes were detected by esterase starch gel electrophoresis technique.

RESULTSThe PCR-RFLP assay of esterase allele genes for three consecutive years disclosed four esterase genotypes, namely, the world-wide highly active homozygous Est beta 1(1) (50%-54%), homozygous Est beta 2 (29%-34%), heterozygous Est beta 1(1)/beta 2 (5%-10%) and Est beta N (3.13%) of a new homozygous genotype. The research of the resistance associated esterase genes phenotype in natural population of Culex pipiens complex in Hangzhou in 2005 with esterase starch gel electrophoresis technique revealed four major types, namely, Est beta 1(1) (61%), Est alpha 2/beta 2 (12%), Est alpha 8/beta 8 (7%) and sensitive phenotype (29%).

CONCLUSIONThere should be various resistance associated esterase genotypes in natural population of Culex pipiens complex in Hangzhou. During the period of 2003-2005, Est beta 1(1) was the major type; Est alpha 2/beta 2 was the second. Est beta N was a new esterase genotype detected in 2005 only with a mere percentage of 3.13%. As for its resistance to the new insecticide, a follow-up study should be needed. The molecular typing of the amplified esterase gene should be consistent with the resistance associated esterase genes phenotype.
