Objective:Mutations in the CX(connexin)26 gene (GJB2), encoding the gap\|junction protein. Connexin 26, have been shown to be the major cause of non\|syndromic recessive deafness. Among these mutations, the CX 26 cDNA (35delG) mutation accounts for the majority of this kind of deafness are European and America, but it does not present in China. Therefore, we intend to investigate the mutation hot spot of connexin 26 in China deafness populations. Mathods:The mutation of 233delC was detected by the technique of PCR\|RFLP and analyzed by directly sequencing protocols in 219 patients with kinds of deafness and 50 individuals with normal hearing. Results: The frequency of the 233delC mutation was 47/219(21.5%) in the Chinese population. No mutation was found in group with normal hearing and dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss. The mutation frequency for 233delC was 4 in 15 patients (26.7%) with genetic prelingual deafness and 10 in 50 patients(20.0%) with drug\|deafness. Conclusion: The 233delC mutaion had a high frequency in Chinese population with hearing loss, especially congenital deafness. Our data indicated that specific combinations of GJB2 mutation exist in different populations.

This study is to investigate the effect of the effective components group of Xiaoshuantongluo (XECG) on neuronal injury induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) in primary cortical cultures isolated from SD rat cortex at day 3 and the possible mechanism. Cells were divided into control group, OGD model group and XECG group (1, 3 and 10 mg x L(-1)). The cell viability was assessed with MTT assay and the LDH release rate was measured by enzyme label kit. The cell apoptosis was analyzed using Hoechst staining. RT-PCR was applied to detect the mRNA levels of JAK2 and STAT3. Western blotting was used to detect the expressions of Bcl-2, Bax, p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 proteins. Results showed that XECG resulted in an obvious resistance to oxygen-glucose deprivation-induced cell apoptosis and decrement of cell viability, decrease the cell LDH release rate. XECG could adjust the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins and increase Bcl-2/Bax ratio, up-regulate the expression of p-JAK2 and p-STAT3. In conclusion, XECG could protect against the neuronal injury cells exposed to OGD, which may be relevant to the promotion of JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway, and impact the expression of Bax and Bcl-2.
