RNA interference is a very important mechanism for the regulation of gene expression, participates in defense against viral infections, and keeps jumping genes under control. RNA interference has been taken as a powerful "gene silence" method widely used in basic science to study the function of genes, and it may lead to novel therapies in the future.

Objective To explore the method for repair of total avulsion of 2~4 fingers and to find the best procedure. Methods The wrap-round flap with part toenail combind with the dorsal pedical flap to repair soft tissue defect of the dorsal of finger and part of the palmar of finger, the second simepulp flap to repair soft tissue defect of the palmar of finger,transfer of two tissues with one pedicle to repair total avulsion of 2~4 fingers. Results All of 9 composite transplants in 6 cases were survived,the received areas were primary healing in 8 finger,1 case repaired by the bilateral wrap-round flaps and second simepulp flaps for index and middle finger,the distal phalanx of middle finger necrosis because of dislocation of DIP,3 months later,injury healed after the necrosis of phalanx excised,but the nail and the nail bed were dead.Except 1 case which the grafted skin necrotized in the donor area of the big toe,the rest had primary healing.All cases were followed up 6~14 months,the activity of joints were: MP 0-70,PIP 0-40.The repaired pulps had excellent appearance,the nail was fine,1 finger's mail was atrophy and 1 finger's nail was defect.The donor area had good fountion without pain and edema,the grafted skin had normal color and the activity of joints were nomal. Conclusion The wrap-round flap with part toenail combined with the second simepulp flap is a good approach in treatment of the skin avulsion injury in the finger.

[Objective]To investigate the significance of the high-risk human papilloma virus (HPV)detection in the screening and diagnosis of cervical lesions.[Methods] The high-risk HPV DNA test results of 797 patients with cervical lesions who all accepted cytology and histopathology test were collected and analyzed retrospectively.[Results]The high-risk HPV DNA positive rates in cervicitis,cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN)Ⅰ,CIN Ⅱ,CIN Ⅲ and cervical cancer were 53.41%(188/352),70.91%(117/165),87.63%(85/97),97.90%(140/143),97.50%(39/40),respectively.The sensitivity and negative predictive value of the high-risk HPV DNA detection for CIN Ⅱ and more serious lesions were 96.66%(318/329),93.29%(153/164),respectively.The detection rate of CIN Ⅱ and more serious lesions in patients with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance(ASCUS)and positive high-risk HPV DNA was 30.03%(94/313),while the rate in patients with negative high-risk HPV DNA was 1.55%(2/129).[Conclusions] The more serious the cervical lesion is,the higher high-risk HPV DNA positive rate is.It is most closely related with CIN 11 and cervical cancer.The high-risk HPV DNA detection has high sensitivity and negative predictive value for CIN Ⅱ and more serious lesions.The high-risk HPV DNA detection has high negative predictive value in CIN Ⅱ and more serious lesions in ASCUS.

Objective To investigate the survival and differentiated situation of transplanted mesenchymal stem cells ( MSCs) transfected with Sonic hedgehog (SHH) gene after chronic myocardial infarction (MI).Methods MSCs were obtained from bone marrow of limb bones by density gradient centrifugation combined with attachment culture method .SHH gene was cloned and eukaryotic expression plasmid pcDNA 3.1-SHH was constructed .Then nucleofector TM was used to transfer SHH gene into MSCs and the expres-sions of mRNA and protein of SHH gene were detected in vitro .Myocardial infarction model was established by ligating the left anterior descending branch .A total of 150μl (3 ×106 ) of MSCs transferred with SHH gene was injected into ischemic area at the fourth week after MI model was set up .Brdu immunohistochemical staining and electron microscope examination were used to detect the survival and differentiation of MSCs with SHH in vivo at the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 8th week after MSCs SHH transplantation.Results It was con-firmed that SHH gene clone and the recombinant eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA 3.1-SHH construction were successful by gene se-quence analysis and double digestions with EcoR I and Bamh I .Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR) and West-ern-blot demonstrated that the expression of SHH mRNA was significantly increased in transfected MSCs compared with untransfected MSCs.Brdu immunohistochemical staining confirmed MSCs with SHH were survived from one to eight weeks in MI area after transplan -tation.Electron microscope examination showed that MSCs had the trend to be differentiated into myocardiac -like cells in MI area at the 4th and 8th week after transplantation .Conclusions The expression of SHH mRNA was significantly increased while MSCs were transfected with SHH gene , and MSCs SHH could survive and differentiate in good condition in the transplanted recipients .Those data provide the experimental basis for further transgenic cell therapy research of ischemic heart disease .

The systematic position of Fritillaria hupehensis has been in dispute. Phylogentic analyses were conducted on sequences of ITS, rpl16, matK sequences for species of F. hupehensis and allies. Lilium davidii was designed as outgroup. The analyses were performed using MP and ML methods. Conclusions could be achieved as follow. The topologies of MP and ML are consistent. The samples of F. hepehensis from different places form a supported clade with a strong bootstrap. And then form a strongly supported clade with F. anhuiensis, F. monantha. The results suggests that although F. hupehensis has a closet relation with the two ones, it exists some difference.

Objective To investigate the influence of tissue-specific growth hormone receptor (GHR)deficiency in type 1 diabetes in the mice at the gene level using pancreaticβcells combined with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetes model.Methods The experiment was divided into four groups:knockout mice group (LLc knockout group), using the homozygotes (LLc:LL+Cre) producted by pancreaticβ cell-specific expressed recombinant enzyme mice (RIP-Cre)and Cre-LoxP system modified GHR mice (Floxed,LL);LL control group, containing Floxed GHR allele homozygous mice (LL);LLc STZ group and LL STZ group (STZ was used for inducing type 1 diabetes model mice). The mice with feeding glucose≥25 mmol · L-1 were considered to be successful models.The Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT),pancreas tissue HE staining and immunohistochemistry were performed in the mice.Results The blood glucose of the mice in LL STZ group and LLc STZ group and LLc STZ group were increased after inj ection of STZ and the models achieved the diagnostic criteria for diabetes 1 6 d later.The results of GTT showed that compared with LLc control group and LLc knockout group, the blood glucose levels of the mice in LL STZ and LLc STZ groups were increased (P<0.05).There was no significant change of morphology and structure of islets between LL control group and LLc knockout group detected by HE staining. The immunohistochemistry results showed that the insulin level of the mice in LL STZ group was significantly reduced compared with LL control group;the insulin level of the mice in LLc STZ group was reduced compared with LLc control group.Conclusion Pancreaticβcell GHR gene knockout has no effect on the blood glucose and the function ofβcells in the mice with STZ-induced type 1 diabetes.
