Objective To evaluate the association between methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene (MTHFR) C677T polymorphism and diabetic kidney disease in Chinese population.Methods After searching the related literatures from PubMed,Medline,EMBASE databases and common Chinese journal literature databases,meta-analysis was performed to assess the association of MTHFR C677T polymorphism with diabetic kidney disease according to the principles of systematic review based on the recessive model and dominant model respectively.Fixed effect model (M-H) was used to pool odd ratio (OR) after heterogeneity test.The Begg and Egger analysis were conducted to evaluate the publication bias.Results 10 literatures including a total of 2018 cases were included in the metaanalysis.No significant heterogeneity was detected.Data were pooled by fixed effect model.The total OR was 2.41 (95%CI=1.85~3.13) and 2.33 (95%CI=1.82~2.98) in recessive and dominant models respectively.No obvious publication bias was observed by Begg and Egger analysis.Conclusions The T allele of C677T polymorphism in MTHFR gene is positively associated with diabetic kidney disease in Chinese population.

Objective To set up a new method,which is sensitive,low cost,rapid and suitable for clinical application for FTO gene rs9930506 variant genotyping basing on high resolution melting (HRM) platform,and to preliminarily put into practice in susceptibility analysis for metabolic syndrome (MS) in Beijing.Methods Unlabelled probe with C3-spacer block specific for rs9930506 variant has been designed according to the Refseq from GenBank.With LC-Green plus dye pre-mixed,we scanned the signal for the genotype analysis after PCR amplification and HRM reaction.Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and PCR-sequencing methods were designed as 2 control genotyping methods for the evaluation of accuracy and convenience.Afterwards,the HRM-based method was put into practice in metabolic syndrome patients (n =500) and control groups (n =500) for rs9930506 genotyping,and primarily study the association between rs9930506 and MS.Results All the 3 methods could genotype rs9930506 appropriately,although the 2 control methods seemed to be a little time-inefficient.The call rate of HRM-method was 100% and sampling accuracy reached 99.3% according to sequencing results.In the MS group,AA,AG and GG genotypes were found in 290,185 and 25 cases,respectively.And in the control group,those were found in 344,138 and 18 cases.No genotype distribution difference was detected between control group and HapMap-CHB data (P =0.520 ).The genotype distributions were all in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in each group.AA genotype of rs9930506 seemed to reduce the risk for MS( OR =0.626,95%CI =0.483-0.812).Conclusions The AA genotype of rs9930506 variant in FTO might be a protective factor for MS in Beijing population.The susceptibility related genotyping in clinical samples could be more rapid,precise and inexpensive with the development of HRM in genotyping.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association between the common variant rs1512268 single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP) of NKX3.1 gene and the risk of prostate cancer,and to explore its interaction with related risk factors.MethodsTotally 122 patients with prostate cancer and 105 age matched male people (prostatic specific antigen < 4 μg/L,without family history of prostate cancer) as control group were enrolled.Polymerase chain reaction - high resolution melting curve(PCR - HRM) combined with gene sequencing methods were used to determine the distribution of allele and genotype frequencies of the rs1512268 SNP.ResultsThe distributions of GG,AG,AA genotypes were 42 cases(33.4%),66 cases(54.1%),14 cases(11.5%) in patients with prostate cancer,and 45 cases(42.9%),51 cases(48.6%),9 cases(8.6%) in healthy control,respectively.There were no significant differences in the distribution of genotype(x2 =1.70,0.69,0.52) and allele frequency (x2 =1.575) between the two groups(P> 0.05).The different genotypes of rs1512268 of NKX3.1 gene were not associated with age,Gleason score,PSA levels and clinical stage of prostate cancer (P>0.05). Conclusions rs1512268 SNP of NKX3.1 gene is not obviously associated with prostate cancer and may be not the genetic risk factor in Chinese.

BACKGROUND:Kienb?ck disease lacks of suitable animal models, which are similar to the pathological process of avascular necrosis of human lunate bone.
OBJECTIVE:To establish a new animal model of Kienb?ck disease using medical TH adhesive embolism and to explore the rationality of model establishment.
METHODS:A total of 30 healthy adult New Zealand rabbits, male or female, were selected. Using self-control method, the rabbits were randomly assigned to experimental sides and control sides. By dril ing in the center of the lunate bone, 0.2 mL of medical TH glue was injected three times. An equal volume of physiological saline was injected into the center of the lunate bone on the control side. X-ray examination, general observation, Micro-CT measurement of bone, and tissue pathology detection were conducted at 4, 8 and 12 weeks.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Gross specimen, X-ray and histological results showed that ischemic necrosis of the lunate bone on the experimental side was visible at 8 weeks after model induction. The ischemic necrosis of the lunate bone became more typical at 12 weeks. Among the Micro-CT microscopic parameters of trabecular bone, trabecular bone density parameters bone volume fraction and the number of trabecular bone were significantly lower on the experimental side than those on the control side (P<0.05). Spatial parameters of trabecular bone significantly increased. Trabecular separation and structure model index on the experimental side were significantly greater than those on the control side. Results suggested that ischemic necrosis of the lunate bone appeared on the experimental side at 8 weeks after injection of medical TH glue. Rabbit models of ischemic necrosis of the lunate bone can be established at 12 weeks. Thus, alterations, which were similar to ischemic necrosis of human lunate bone, appeared, such as blood transportation damage in the lunate bone, trabecular bone fracture, and empty lacuna, when surrounding tissues were not obviously injured.

Objective:To investigate variety pattern of expression level of TCRV?subfamilies in mononuclear cell in spleen tissue of rats with dampness pathogenic factors and normal rats by using FQ-PCR technique. Methods:32 SD rats were divided into four groups: normal group, external dampness group, internal dampness group, external and internal dampness group. Observing period was 20 days. 3 Rats were randomly selected from each group in order to exam the TCRV? subfamilies expression level. Results:The expression of TCRV?1, TCRV?7, TCRV?9 and TCRV?13 in external dampness group were higher than those in normal group (P
