2.The Linkage of DNA Replication, Repair and Recombination in E. coli
Progress in Biochemistry and Biophysics 2006;0(07):-
The investigations on the interactive relationships of DNA replication, damage repair and recombination have been locating in the frontline and becoming one of the hotspots in today's life science research. More and more studies show that the processes of DNA replication, damage repair and recombination are both independent and interdependent in the molecular level. These pathways coordinate and conform each other through interactions of many critical proteins in the pathways, by which DNA molecules, known as genetical materials, can be well maintained in cell and faithfully transferred through cellular generations. By using E. coli as a model system, the recent progresses and the possible rules underlying E. coli DNA replication, repair and recombination have been analyzed. As it is believed that the researches on E. coli DNA replication, repair and recombination may be capable of providing clues to the eukaryotic research based on the universal conservations of the critical proteins in the pathways.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of fluoxetine (FLX) on the expressions of BDNF and Bcl-2 in the hippocampus, the amygdala and the prefrontal cortex of conditioned fear (CF) model mice. Forty eight mice were randomly divided into three groups, normal control group, CF stress group and FLX-pretreated CF group. The FLX-pretreated CF group was given FLX (10 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)) for 7 days before CF stress. After CF stress model was established, all mice were given behavioral experiments to test whether FLX impaired or improved the auditory and contextual fear conditioning. Then mice were sacrificed. The expressions of BDNF and Bcl-2 were detected by Western blotting. The results showed that the freezing time of FLX-pretreated CF group was significantly lower than that of CF group; FLX pretreatment up-regulated the expression of Bcl-2 in the hippocampus at 1 d after CF stress (P < 0.001), but no significant differences was observed at 7 d; BDNF significantly increased in the hippocampus at 7 d (P < 0.001), but no differences at 1 d; the expressions of BDNF and Bcl-2 in the amygdala and the prefrontal cortex were of no obvious differences between CF group and FLX-pretreated CF group at 1 d or 7 d after CF stress. Parallel to these changes, pretreatment with FLX could affect histopathologic changes induced by CF stress. Furthermore, the results indicated that FLX pretreatment could protect against CF stress-induced neurological damage via the activation of BDNF and Bcl-2 in hippocampus.

Aim To investigate the effect of ASX (trans-astaxanthin)on the expressions of NF-κB p65 , iNOS and TNF-αin the hippocampus and the prefron-tal cortex of chronic alcohol mice.Methods 40 mice were randomly divided into control group,7 d,14 d, 21 d,28 d alcohol-treated group,the mice were given alcohol preference testing on day of 6,13,20,27. Mice were subjected to alcohol withdrawal for one day after testing.In order to determine the exact time point of cognitive memory impairment in mice after alcohol consumption,they were given morris water maze test after alcohol preference testing. The other 40 mice were randomly divided into control group, alcohol group and ASX group (20,40,80 mg·kg-1 ).After chronic ASX administration, mice were given one probe trial of 60 s in which the platform was removed from the pool to evaluate escape latency,the number of times the animal crossed the previous location of the platform,time spent in the target quadrant,and swim-ming speed.The expressions of NF-κB p65 ,iNOS and TNF-αwere detected by western blotting after behav-ioral testing.Results The mice showed an obvious al-cohol-related phenomenon on 2 1 and 28 days after al-cohol treatment,and escape latency significantly in-creased,entries in target quadrant and duration in tar-get quadrant significantly decreased with increasing drinking days and withdrawal times.The results also suggested that 2 1 days chronic ASX treatment reversed this learning deficit.Moreover,the expression of NF-κB p65 ,iNOS and TNF-αin the hippocampus were significantly increased after 2 1 d alcohol treatment (P<0.001),and pretreatment with ASX (40,80 mg· kg-1 ) could obviously inhibit these changes (P <0.001);Parallel to these changes in the hippocam-pus,the level of NF-κB p65 ,iNOS and TNF-αwere also increased in the prefrontal cortex (P<0.001 ), however,only ASX (80 mg · kg-1 ) administration could inhibit the increase (P<0.05 ).Conclusion These results indicate that ASX pretreatment can pro-tect against alcohol-induced memory impairment via the inhibition of NF- κB p65 ,iNOS and TNF-αexpres-sions in hippocampus and prefrontal cortex.

Objective To investigate the effective administration model for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in the community. Methods In a prospective study, the 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed in 4 713 resident pregnant women over 20 years old who received antenatal care in a general hospital or a special hospital from Sep. 2011 to Aug. 2012. Five hundred and thirty-three pregnant women were diagnosed as GDM, 198 patients who labored in a general hospital were enrolled in thegroup A , and the rest who labored in a special hospital were enrolled in the group B. 198 cases with non-GDM were enrolled in the group C. Results The incidence of GDM during this study period was 11.3%. The maternal age , gestationl weeks and OGTT results of patients in the three groups were significantly different (P < 0.05). With the increase of maternal age of pregnant women, the blood glucose increased while the gestationl weeks descreased. No significant differencees were shown in prevalence of polyhydramnios, hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy, premature labor, macrosomia , fetal growth restriction and neonatal asphyxia among the three groups (P > 0.05). However, significant differences were found in the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage and cesarean section. The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage increased significantly in the patients of group B (χ2= 7.156, v = 2, P = 0.028). The incidence of cesarean section increased significantly in the patients of group A (χ2= 63.592, v = 2, P = 0.000). Conclusion Establishing an effective administration model for gestational diabetes mellitus in the community could control the incidence of GDM associated complications.
