By using rice SSRP, RAPD and AFLP molecular markers, the genome of rice transgenic line "Minghui 63-Xa21" was analyzed. 32 SSRP primers, 42 RAPD primers and 8 AFLP primers could produce obvious PCR bands in the analysis of at least 12 individual plants selected randomly from "Minghui 63-Xa21" T3 generation. Totally 550 PCR bands, equivalent to 550 genomic sites, were detected. Different individual plants of the transgenic homozygous line displayed almost the same PCR pattern. Compared with the control "Minghui 63", no difference was found in their PCR patterns. This indicated that the introduction of Xa21 into the genome of "Minghui 63" did not change these 550 genome sites and their heredity. Very few variant PCR bands were observed in some individual plants from both "Minghui 63-Xa21" and "Minghui 63". However, the variant percentage was equivalent between the transgenic line and the non-transgenic control line.

Objective To investigate interaction effect of hyperglycemia and hyperuricemia on the patients with abnormal alanine aminotransferase(ALT). Methods From March to November 2018, 5 223 cases with complete and suitable data were enrolled in the physical medical examination in Yichang, Hubei Province of China. The metabolic characteristics of the two groups (508 ALT anomaly cases and 513 normal cases) were compared and analysed, Logistic regression model was used to study the independent effects of risk factors, and the interaction between risk factors was analyzed by additive model and multiplicative model. Results Levels of uric acid, triglyceride, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol, fasting blood glucose, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, body mass index, aspartate aminotransferase were significantly higher than that of the control group(all P<0.05). After adjusting some confounding factors, multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that risk of abnormal ALT was 5.62 times higher in subjects with hyperglycemia and hyperuricemia than in subjects without them(95% CI:1.65-19.73, P=0.004). Interaction analysis of risk factors for abnormal ALT showed that there was no multiplicative interaction between hyperglycemia and hyperuricemia, but with additive interaction, the synergy index was 3.02, the relative excess risk due to interaction was 3.09, the attributable proportion due to interaction was 54.98% and pure factor attribution interaction was 66.87%. Conclusions There are several abnormal metabolic indices in individuals with abnormal ALT. The positive interaction between hyperglycemia and hyperuricemia are among the important risk factors for abnormal ALT patients. They can significantly increase the risk of illness.

The dominant gene Xa21 with broad-spectrum and high resistance to Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) was transferred into C418, an important restorer line of japonica hybrid rice in China using double right-border (DRB) T-DNA binary vector through Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. 17 transgenic lines were Xa21-positive with high resistance to the race P6 of Xoo through PCR analysis and resistance identification, among the total 27 independent primary transformants (T0) obtained. The subsequent analysis of the T1 progenies of these 17 T0 lines through PCR-assisted selection and resistance investigation showed that four Xa21 transgenic T0 lines could produce selectable marker-free (SMF) progenies. The frequency of primary transformants producing SMF progenies was 15%. In addition, PCR analysis also revealed these SMF progenies did not contain vector backbone sequence, and they were named as SMF and vector backbone sequence-free (SMF-VBSF) Xa21 transgenic plants. The further molecular and phenotypic analysis of the T2 and T3 progenies testified the homozygous SMF-VBSF Xa21 transgenic plants were obtained with high resistance to Xoo.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of resveratrol on the levels of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of premature infants exposed to hyperoxia.
METHODSPeripheral blood and isolated PBMCs from premature infants (gestational age<32 weeks) without oxygen supplement were collected and were randomly assigned into four groups: control, air+resveratrol, hyperoxia, and hyperoxia+resveratrol. The PBMCs were cultured in vitro for 48 hours, then the ROS content in PBMCs was measured by laser scanning confocal microscopy. Malondialdehyde (MDA) content in the medium was measured by the whole spectrum spectrophotometer. SIRT1 positioning was assessed by immunofluorescence. SIRT1 expression levels in PBMCs were measured by Western bolt.
RESULTSCompared with the control group, the level of SIRT1 in the air+resveratrol group increased significantly (P<0.05). The levels of ROS and MDA and the SIRT1 transposition rate in the hyperoxia group increased significantly, while the expression level of SIRT1 decreased significantly compared with the control group (P<0.05). The levels of ROS and MDA and the SIRT1 transposition rate decreased significantly (P<0.05), and the expression level of SIRT1 increased significantly in the hyperoxia+resveratrol group (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONSResveratrol can increase SIRT1 expression in PBMCs and inhibit SIRT1 shuttle from nucleus to cytoplasm in order to increase the ability of antioxidative stress in premature infants exposed to hyperoxia, thereby reducing the oxidative stress injury in premature infants.
