Journal of Third Military Medical University 2003;0(08):-
Objective To explore the lesion mechanism and the apoptosis related protein changes of kidney in rat suffered from obstructive jaundice. Methods Choledocho-ligation methods was used to create rat obstructive jaundice model. Six rats in the normal control group and thirty rats of experiment group were observed at day 1, 3, 6,10 and 14 after rat model establishment. HE staining for kidney pathological changes, TUNEL staining for cell apoptosis, SABC for apoptotic related proteins of survivin and bax, xanthine oxidase method for SOD activity and thiobarbiturate method for MAD content were carried out. Results Renal tubular epithelial cell necrosis, cell shedding and aggregation were the main pathological changes in the experiment group. In the experiment group, the apoptosis ratio increased significantly, and reached the peak of (25.2?2.8)% on postoperative day 14. The relative gray value of survivin in the experiment group decreased significantly and of bax increased significantly. The plasma SOD activity in the normal group was (193.6?23.5) U/L, but it in the experiment group decreased significantly. The plasma MDA content and the endotoxin level in the experiment group increased significantly. Conclusion Cell apoptosis is one of the lesion mechanisms of kidney in rats suffered from obstructive jaundice. The down-regulation of survivin and the up-regulation of bax may be the biological factor in the occurrence of apoptosis. The increasing of free radical and endotoxin are important factors in the kidney lesion.

A highly sensitive and selective DNA biosensor is described based on the fluorescence quenching ability of MoS2 nanosheet and exonucleaseⅢ( ExoⅢ) assisted dual-signal amplification. In this sensor, the fluorescence probes ( HP1 and HP2 ) cannot be degraded by Exo Ⅲdue to the 3 '-termini protrusion and thus are adsorbed on the surface of MoS2 nanosheets, which will result in the quenching of MoS2 nanosheets toward the probes and induce a low fluorescent signal. The presence of the target DNA leads to the desorption of probes on the surface of MoS2 nanosheets due to the hybridization toward probes, generating many fluorescent fragments by Exo Ⅲdigestion and inducing dual-signal amplification. This method can improve the sensitivity and detection limit compared with single amplification method, and shows excellent selectivity in the discrimination of single base mismatched targets. On the basis of the significantly high sensitivity, the developed biosensor can be potentially extended to detect various DNA targets with excellent sequence selectivity.
