Objective To study the effect of social isolation( SI) on the exploratory behavior and working memory in mice. Methods The Kunming mice of postnatal 21 days were divided into the control group,SI 2 weeks group,SI 2 weeks gregarious group,SI 4 weeks group and SI 8 weeks group,according to randomized design with ten animals each. All isolated mice were isolated for 2, 4 and 8 weeks respectively, the gregarious group were housed under normal grouped housing enviroment after isolation until adult, the mice with the relative same age were control groups. All animals were measured for exploratory behavior and working memory by performing open field and T?maze after the treatment. Results In the open field,compared to the relative control group,the central area of the total time in the SI 4 weeks group(0.07±0.04) was less than the control (0.10±0.04) obviously. The central area percentage of total time in SI 8 weeks group (0.64±0.12) were more than the control (0.43±0.08). In the T?maze,the alteration times in SI 2 weeks group (first day (5.92±0.79),second day (6.67±1.3),third day (7.42±1.08),fourth day (8.17±1.27)) were less than the control (first day (6.80±1.14); second day (7.60± 0.84);third day (8.30±0.95);forth day (9.20±1.32)). However,the alteration times of gregarious group showed no obvious change. Both the alteration times of SI 4 weeks (8.18±1.99) in the second day and that of SI 8 weeks (8.29±3.04) in the forth day were more than the control (6.60±2.11) and (7.80±2.53) respectively.Conclu?sions Working memory of SI 2 weeks rats decrease,which can be improved by the resocialization.SI 4 weeks and 8 weeks rats show the decreasing exploring ability and increasing anxiety and work memory.

This study sought to clone Chinese Banna minipig inbred-line (BMI) alpha1,3-galactosyltransferase (alpha1,3-GT) gene and construct its recombinant eukaryotic expression vector. Total RNA was isolated from BMI liver. Full length cDNA of alpha1,3-GT gene was amplified by RT-PCR and cloned into pMD18-T vector to sequence. Subsequently, alpha1,3-GT gene was inserted into pEGFP-N1 to construct eukaryotic expression vector pEGFP-N1-GT. Then the reconstructed plasmid pEGFP-N1-GT was transiently transfected into human lung cancer cell line A549. The expression of alpha1,3-GT mRNA in transfected cells was detected by RT-PCR. FITC-BS-IB4 lectin was used in the direct immunofluorescence method, which was performed to observe the alpha-Gal synthesis function of BMI alpha1,3-GT in transfected cells. The results showed that full length of BMI alpha1,3-GT cDNA was 1116 bp. BMI alpha1,3-GT cDNA sequence was highly homogenous with those of mouse and bovine, and was exactly the same as the complete sequence of those of swine, pEGFP-N1-GT was confirmed by enzyme digestion and PCR. The expression of alpha1,3-GT mRNA was detected in A549 cells transfected by pEGFP-N1-GT. The expression of alpha-Gal was observed on the membrane of A549 cells transfected by pEGFP-N1-GT. Successful cloning of BMI alpha1,3-GT cDNA and construction of its eukaryotic expression vector have established a foundation for further research and application of BMI alpha1,3-GT in the fields of xenotransplantation and immunological therapy of cancer.
