1.Study of genetic variation of the structural region of hepatitis C virus
Journal of Third Military Medical University 2001;23(3):296-299
Objective To study the role of the structural gene variation of hepatitis C virus(HCV) in the chronicity of HCV infection. Methods Serum samples from four HCV infection acquired during six-month follow up and four patients with chronic hepatitis C type were obtained. A 1-kb fragment containing the 3' half of core ,completed E1 and 5' half of E2/NS1 was amplified by nested reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). For each,30 cloned cDNAs were examined by a method that combined heteroduplex analysis (HAD) and a single-stranded conformational polymorphisim (SSCP)assay to optimize selection of clones with unique gel shift patterns (clonotypes )as a measure of the quasispecies complexity. Results There was obvious difference between the SSCP bands of cloned cDNAs representing core-E1 and E2 region,but more distinct difference between heteroduplex and the homoduplex of clones spanning E2 region which accurately reflected the degree of heterogeneity. Quasispecies complexity was higher in those with persistent viremia than those with acute viremia. Conclusion HCV persistence is associated with complex quasispecies in viral structural region.

Acta Nutrimenta Sinica 1956;0(03):-
Effects of different edible oils on lipid and lipld peroxidation and their correlation were studied in rats. The results showed: 1.The tea-seed oil and soybean oil exhibited a good potency of reducing serum TC and TG comparing with lard did. 2. The plasma LCAT activity in the lard feeding group (57.07 nmol/ml.h) was lower than that of groups consuming four different vegetable oils which produced similar LCAT activities (80.26-94.03 nmol/ml-h). 3. Lard increased liver lipid and promoted TG sediment in aorta, but lowered brain lipid level. 4. Of lipid peroxidation in serum, liver, heart and kidney, the rats fed lard exhibited a highest level, and tea-seed oil fed group was lower relatively soybean oil promoted tissue lipid peroxidation while rape-seed oil and Salad oil suppressed it. 5. After experiment, the SOD activity of erythrocyte increased in rats fed oils riched in monounsaturated fatty acid, and decreased in rats fed soybean oil and lard. 6. The results of linear correlation and regression analysis showed that there was a significant positive relationship between lipid peroxidation and lipid TC, TG) in serum and liver (P

Objective:To establish a tongue cancer cell line that stably overexpresses nm23-H1.Methods:The reconstructed plasmid, pCMV-BamH1-Neo-nm23-H1, was transfected into bacteria and amplified. The plasmid was identified by electrophoresis on a 10 g/L agarose gel and stained with ethidium bromide and then transfected to the cell line of Tca8113 by lipofectin strategy and was selected by G418 for 5 weeks. The stable expression of nm23-H1 was identified by immunofluorescence,Western-blotting and flow cytometer.Results:Restriction endonuclease Bam H1 examination showed that 986 bp of nm23-H1 was in pCMV-Bam-Neo vector. 5 weeks after transfection positive clones were obtained and the transfected cells were proliferated to confluent.Immunohistochemical examination,Western blot and flow cytometry showed that nm23-H1 expression was increased in the transfected cells.Conclusion:A tongue cancer cell line expressing nm23-H1 is established.

0 05).Conclusion The distribution frequency of bb type of VDR genotypes in Han populations of China was more prevalent,followed by Bb and bb types in turn.In the patients receiving long term glucocorticoid therapy,there is no significant difference in BMD between Bb and BB genotypes.The data suggest that the VDR genotypes may not be a means to identify patients at great risk of glucocorticoid induced osteoporosis,which await to be further confirmed with a large sample size.

Objective Study the effect of NMDA receptor antagonist GAPA on the [Ca 2+ ]i of the bilirubin precipitated brain tissue. Methods 10 ug/g of GAPA was administrated peritoneally to Gunn rat with bilirubin induced encephalopathy, brain tissue suspensions was prepared, Fura 2/AM was loaded. the neural cytosolic Ca 2+ was measured by flurescence imaging analysis. Results The concentration of neural cytosolic Ca 2+ in bilirubin precipitated brain tissue was significantly more than that in the control group; NMDA receptor antagonist GAPA could significantly decrease the cytosolic Ca 2+ overload. Conclusion Cytosolic Ca 2+ overload was found in the bilirubin precipitated brain tissue. NMDA receptor antagonist GAPA could prevent the cytosolic Ca 2+ overload in bilirubin induced brain tissue.

Recent studies have demonstrated that hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for stroke,which may cause vascular endothelial injury by multiple mechanisms,destroy blood coagulation and fibrinolytic systems,and influence on lipid metabolism.Methylenetetra hydrofolate reductase(MTHFR)is a key enzyme of homocysteine metabolic pathway in the human body.If it is insufficient or its activity decreases,it will directly result in the accumula tion of homocysteine in the human body,and callse hyperhomocysteinemia.Although a number of studies have found that MTHFR gene mutation is the main cause of MTHFR insufficient and its activity decrease,the correlation between MTHFR gene mutation and ischemic cerebral vascular disease is quite controversial now.This article reviews the relationship between MTHFR gene polymorphisms and ischemic stroke.
