Objective To study the respiratory tract virus infection in dengue fever patients in Guangzhou. Methods Totally 280 patients with dengue fever in 2014 and 32 patients from May to December 2015 were select-ed as group A and group B respectively. The distribution of clinical symptoms and signs ,age and onset time of the 2 groups were compared. Simultaneously ,other respiratory viruses in all patients were detected. Results In group B,the incidence of fever,bone pain,myalgia/body weight fatigue,anorexia,diarrhea,rash diagnosed and hemorrhage was higher than that in group A. The incidence difference of headache,bone pain,myalgia/body weight fatigue,anorexia and rash in 2 groups indicated no statistical significance(P > 0.05)but the incidence of anorexia was significantly different(P<0.05). In group A,there were a larger proportion of patients aged from 21to 30(28.57%)and from 31 to 40(25.36%)while in group B,there were a larger proportion of patients aged from 41 to 50 (19.69%) and from 51 to 65 (25.00%). There was no significant difference in the distribution of other age groups(P > 0.05)except that of 51 ~65 years in 2 groups(P < 0.05). In 2014,the peak inci-dence of dengue fever was in October (64.29%),followed by November (28.21%) and in 2015 ,October was the peak incidence of dengue fever (84.38%),followed by November (12.49%). The incidence in 2 groups in October was significantly different (P < 0.05). In 280 cases of group A ,positive rate of 9 respiratory virus was 30.36%(85/280) and there were 38 cases with MP (44.71%) and 24 with LP1 (27.24%);in 32 cases of group B ,positive rate of 9 respiratory virus was 32.50%(11/32) and there were 4 with MP (36.36%) and 3 LP1(27.27%). The detection rate of other viruses indicated no significant difference(P > 0.05). Conclusions The incidence of dengue fever is different in Guangzhou area at different time. The patients present different clinical symptoms and signs. Analysis of different pathogenic characteristics provides important basis for clinical treatment of dengue fever.

To construct recombinant reporter plasmids containing different Alpha gene segments and Alpha1-TFEB fusion gene and to evaluate the promoter activity of the Alpha gene. Methods:Promoter regions of the Alpha gene were predicted using a software Primer 0.5. Five Alpha gene segments with different lengths and a normal TFEB gene promoter (pTFEB) were amplified via polymerase chain reaction, and recombinant reporter plasmids containing different Alpha gene segments and a normal TFEB gene pro-moter were constructed. Liposome transfection was used to transfect these vectors into the human embryo kidney 293T cells. The pro-moter activity of the Alpha gene was evaluated via luciferase assay. Meanwhile, the recombinant Alpha1-TFEB plasmid was construct-ed and transfected into the 293T cells. The TFEB expression of the recombinant Alpha1-TFEB plasmid was then detected via Western blot. Results: Recombinant reporter plasmids containing different Alpha gene segments and pTFEB were constructed successfully. Compared with the luciferase activity of pGL3-Basic, that of the groups with Alpha1, Alpha2, Alpha3, Alpha4 and Alpha5 significantly increased (P<0.01). The luciferase activity also increased significantly in the groups with Alpha1, Alpha2 and Alpha5 compared with that of the pTFEB group (P<0.01). The TFEB expression of the pGL3-Enhancer-Alpha1-TFEB was significantly higher compared with that of the pGL3-Enhancer group. Conclusion:In t(6;11) translocation RCC, the Alpha gene has a strong promoter activity and it en-hances TFEB expression. The strongest promoter activity region is in Alpha5 with a sequence from 643 bp to 693 bp.

Objective To investigate the variance levels of plasma soluble leukocyte differentiation antigens CD40 (sCD40) and soluble CD40 ligand (sCD40L) in preeclamptic patients with renal damage and its relationship. Methods A total of 63 pregnant women attended the Department of Obstetrics, Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University Medical College between August 2008 and June 2010. In the present study included 28 pregnant women with mild preeclampsia and 35 patients with severe preeclampsia. Thirty matched normotensive pregnant women were enrolled in the study as the control group. Expression of sCD40 and sCD40L were determined by ELISA. At the same time, the blood routine, C reaction protein ( CRP),urine routine, 24 hours urine protein excretion, and serum uric acid (UA), creatinine (Cr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were measured. The correlation analysis was performed between the sCD40/sCD40L and the blood biochemical indexes in 3 groups. Results ( 1 ) The median levels of CRP in severe preeclampsia (10. 8 mg/L)and mild preeclampsia group(7. I mg/L)are significantly higher than that of control group (3. 3 mg/L,P < 0. 05 ); The level of CRP in severe preeclampsia group was also higher than that of mild preeclampsia group ( P < 0. 05 ). The median gestational age at delivery in severe preeclampsia ( 32. 5 weeks)was significantly less than that of mild preeclampsia group ( 37. 2 weeks) and normal group ( 38. 6 weeks,P < 0. 05). However no significant differences were observed between mild preeclampsia group and normal group ( P >0. 05 ). The platelet count in severe preeclampsia ( 132 × 109/L) was significantly less than those of mild preeclampsia group (212 × 109/L) and normal group ( 216 × 109/L, P < 0. 01 ), but no significant differences were observed in blood platelet amount between mild preeclampsia group and normal group ( P >0. 05 ). There was no significant difference in hemoglobin level and white blood cell in three groups ( P >0. 05). (2) The sCD40 plasma concentration in severe, mild preeclampsia and normal group was 133.6,126. 5 and 90. 7 ng/L, respectively. The sCD40 L plasma concentrations were 12. 5, 10. 4 and 4. 4 ng/L respectively in the 3 groups. 24 hours urinary protein quantitative was 4. 5 g/d,0. 8 g/d and 0 in the 3 groups respectively. And the UA level was 486 μ mol/L,289 μmol/L and 162 μmol/L. In the above three groups,the monitoring indicators were significantly higher in women with severe preeclampsia group compared with mild preeclampsia and control groups (P < 0. 01 ), and there were also higher in mild preeclampsia group than that in control groups ( P < 0. 01 ). The level of plasma Cr ( 89 μmol/L) and BUN ( 5. 32 mmol/L) in severe preeclampsia group were higher than those of mild preeclampsia group (66 μmol/L and 4. 49mmol/L) and control group ( 57 μmol/L and 3.32 mmol/L, P < 0. 05 ). There was no significant difference between mild preeclampsia group and normal group (P > 0. 05 ). (3) The correlation analysis indicated that the level of sCD40 has a positive correlation with 24 hours urinary protein quantitative( r = 0. 434, P < 0. 05 ),also significant positive correlation( r =0. 536,0. 528 ,P < 0. 01 ) between the level of sCD40 and UA or CRP in women with preeclampsia. There was no significant correlation between the level of sCD40 and systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, delivery gestational age, Cr, BUN, and platelet count(r =0. 135,0. 183, -0. 133,0. 190,0. 167, -0. 221 ,all P >0. 05 ). There were positive correlation between the level of sCD40L and 24 hours urine protein excretion, either UA or CRP( r =0. 591,0. 445,0. 539 ,all P <0. 01 ). No significant correlation was found between sCD40 L and systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure,delivery gestational age, Cr, BUN, and platelet count( r =0. 178,0. 212, -0. 292,0. 144,0. 135, -0. 273,all P >0. 05). There was significant positive correlation between plasma sCD40 and sCD40L ( r =0. 707 ,P <0. 01 ). There was no relationship between the level of sCD40, sCD40L and the blood biochemical indexes in normotensive pregnant women ( P > 0. 05 ). Conclusions The plasma concentrations of sCD40 and sCD40 L are significantly higher in pregnant women with preeclampsia compared with the control, which may be involved in the development of preeclampsia and contribute to the kidney damage. The variance levels of sCD40 and sCD40L may be also related to the severity of preeclampsia.
