OBJECTIVEHypospadias is one of the most commonly seen urogenital congenital malformations in males and to identify its etiological factors.

METHODSA hospital-based case-control study was conducted, with 107 hypospadias cases. Two matched controls per case were randomly selected. Both cases and controls were face to face interviewed with a uniformed questionnaire. Conditional logistic regression model was used for univariable and multivariate analysis on SAS 6.12 to estimate odds ratios (OR) and 95 per cent confidence internals (95% CI).

RESULTSData from multiple conditional logistic regression analysis showed that hypospadias was positively associated with maternal history of spontaneous abortion (OR = 3.87, 95% CI: 1.60 - 9.39), with threatened abortion in the first or second trimester (OR = 3.57, 95% CI: 1.31 - 9.64), with common cold accompanied fever in the first trimester (OR = 7.63, 95% CI: 2.50 - 23.24), with maternal drug (antibiotic, analgesiscs) exposure during the second trimester (OR = 16.46, 95% CI: 3.46 - 78.21), with paternal exposure to pesticides occupationally (OR = 3.70,95% CI: 1.49 - 9.16), with neonatal low birth weight (OR = 12.62, 95% CI: 2.97 - 53.67), but was negatively associated with maternal diet supplemented with protein in the first trimester (OR = 0.33, 95% CI: 0.15 - 0.74).

CONCLUSIONSThe risk factors of hypospadias seemed to include maternal history of spontaneous abortion, threatened abortion in the first or second trimester, maternal common cold accompanied fever in the first trimester, maternal drug exposure during the second trimester, paternal occupational exposure to pesticides, neonatal low birth weight. However, maternal diet supplemented with protein probably acted as the protective factor for neonatal hypospadias in the first trimester.

Objective To extract the loci of murine MHC gene and construct plasmids.Methods The RNA of mice was extracted and reversely transcribed into cDNA.By using nested PCR,the products were connected with T vector,cloned,and sequenced.Subsequently,the genes were digested by endonucleases,connected with expression vector,and sequenced again to choose the correct clones.Results After the nested PCR,the products were approved by sequencing.After being connected with the vectors,they were approved again by sequencing and the correct clones were chosen.Conclusion All of the loci of the MHC gene can be obtained by nested PCR.The plasmids from the correct clone can be used in the further experiments of transferring the gene to mitigate the transplantation rejection.

OBJECTIVETo develop a safe and effective lentivirus vaccine model and provide insights into the development of other lentivirus vaccines.

METHODSIn this study, a construct of pGPT was made by deleting env gene in the infectious Equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) molecular clone of WU57. Since the overlaping of EIAV Rev gene with env gene, there was no Rev gene in the construct of pGPT. For compensation of Rev function, the construct of pGPTC was made by inserting 4 copies of constitutive RNA transport elements (CTEs) from Mason-Pfizer monkey virus into the construct of pGPT. In addition, a construct designated pTEB expressing EIAV Env protein was made while env gene-minus viruses were made by co-transfection of pGPT/pTEB or pGPTC/pTEB into 293 cells. Western blot was used to identify the development of recombinant virus particles. Then immunofluorescence assay was used to evaluate the infectivity of recombinant virus particles in vitro.

RESULTSEIAV proteins expression was detected in the supernatant of transfected 293 cells by Western blot within pGPTC/pTEB transfected cells. However, no evidence of EIAV proteins expression was observed within pGPT/pTEB transfected cells. EIAV proteins expression was detected in the first round but not in the second round infected EK cells with EIAV(GPTC) by immunofluorescence assay.

CONCLUSIONRev/RRE was necessary for expression of viral structural proteins; CTEs from Mason-Pfizer monkey virus was functionally interchangeable with EIAV Rev/RRE to help RNAs transportation out of nucleus to express structural proteins and EIAV particles were produced in the transfected 293 cells. A live EIAV recombinant virus with single round infection had been developed.
