By skin prick test,three kinds of mite allergens(Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus,Dermatophagoides farinae,Blomia tropicalis)were tested in a group of asthma children in Jinhua area from Oct 2005 to Sep 2006.The pos-itive rate to allergen from D.pteronyssinus and D.farinae was 80.6% and 77.8% respectively,higher than that of Blomia tropicalis(61.1%)(?2=21.39,P

OBJECTIVETo study the acute effects of dimethoate on the muscarinic-receptors(M1, M2) in the brain of rats.

METHODS24 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 4 groups randomly. They were administered subcutaneously with 0, 25, 50, 100 mg/kg dimethoate, respectively. Brains were removed after 48 hours of administration. Radioligand binding assay was used to determine the density and affinity of M1 and M2 receptors.

RESULTSRats in the treated group showed low density of M1 and M2 receptors compared with the control rats. The brain M1 receptor density of the rats in the highest dosage group was significantly lower than that in the control group while brain M2 receptors density had a decrease trend with increasing dosage, but the difference showed no significance. However, there were no differences of the affinity of both M1 and M2 among different treated groups. Correlation analysis showed there is positive relationship between cholinesterase activity and density of M1 receptors(r = 0.583, P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONM1 and M2 receptors density decreased with the increasing dosage of dimethoate. It is suggested that the alleviating of cholinergic symptoms may be due to the decrease of M1 and M2 receptors in rat brain.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the PLCE1 gene and children with primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS) in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Methods:This study was a retrospective study, a case-control study was used to select 155 cases of PNS in Guangxi Zhuang children attending the Affiliated Hospital of Youjiang Medical University for Nationalities from January 2017 to January 2021 (PNS group), and 100 healthy Guangxi Zhuang children who were physically examined during the same period (healthy control group). Genotyping of PLCE1 SNP rs3765524, and rs2274223 were performed using the second-generation gene sequencing technology, and their correlation with the development of PNS was analyzed. Logistic regression analysis was used for correlation analysis, and Chi- square test or Fisher′ s exact probability method was used for comparison between groups. Results:(1)Compared with the healthy control group, PLCE1 rs3765524 was correlated with the risk of PNS in children of PNS group, and the TT genotype may reduce the risk of PNS in the co-dominant model ( OR=0.435, 95% CI: 0.238-0.794, P=0.007). There were no significant differences in the genotype of PLCE1 rs2274223 and the frequency of allele distribution between PNS group and healthy control group (all P>0.05). (2) A strong linkage disequilibrium existed at PLCE1 SNP rs3765524 and rs2274223.(3) There were no significant differences in the frequency of the distribution of haplotypes AC, AT and GT between PNS group and healthy control group (all P>0.05). Conclusions:PLCE1 SNP rs3765524 is correlated with the risk of PNS in children in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, and the TT genotype may be a protective factor for PNS in children in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.

【Objective】 To study the effect of air inlet modes on the temperature variation, fluctuation, uniformity and coefficient of variation(CV), so as to evaluate the stability and uniformity of the temperature field in refrigerated warehouse for blood. 【Methods】 The temperature changes of blood refrigerated warehouse under different modes of air inlet during compressor operation were analyzed. The stability of the temperature field in the storehouse was evaluated by the changes, fluctuation, uniformity, CV and deviation of temperature at each testing point. 【Results】 The average value of temperature in the storehouse, adopting air inlet via straight blow, was (4.98±0.92)℃, while that of air inlet via micro-hole mode was(4.15±0.25)℃, with significant differences between each other(P<0.05). As to the CV of temperature, air inlet via straight blow was significantly different from that via micro hole(P<0.01). The fluctuation, uniformity and deviation of temperature created by straight blow and micro hole were 1.85±1.11 vs 0.49±0.38, 1.00±0.68 vs 0.47±0.37, and 0.61±0.45 vs 0.27±0.21, respectively, with significant differences between each other(P<0.01). 【Conclusion】 Compared with straight blow, the mean temperature created by micro hole was closer to the median value (4℃) of the temperature range, i. e.(4±2)℃, during blood storage. Otherwise, micro hole demonstrated a smaller CV of temperature, and superior performance in fluctuation, uniformity and deviation of the temperature at the testing points, which was conducive to ensure the stability of storehouse temperature field.

Objective:To analyze the mutation sites and characteristics of phospholipase CE1( PLCE1) gene in children with primary nephrotic syndrome(PNS) in Zhuang, Guangxi, China, so as to explore the expression status of PLCE1 protein in peripheral blood of PNS patients. Methods:(1)Blood samples of 154 Zhuang children with PNS and 98 healthy children of Zhuang nationality from July 2015 to September 2017 in Affiliated Hospital of Youjiang Medical College for Nationalities were collected to sequence PLCE1 gene with FastTarget target gene capture method in the combination with next generation sequencing.Based on the comparison between mutation results and information from the database, the pathogenicity, phenotype and distribution characteristics of these mutation sites were discovered and appraised.(2)The concentration of PLCE1 protein in serum samples were measured by enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay, then the data of PNS group and healthy control group were compared and analyzed statistically with SPSS 25.0. Results:(1)A total of 18 low-frequency mutations of PLCE1 were observed, 5 of them(c.670C>T, c.578T>C, c.923G>T, c.4916C>T, and c. 5927_5929del) were found only in the PNS group, and 3 of them occurred in both PNS group and healthy control group: c.176C>T, c.389T>C, and c. 4304C>T.Five newly discovered mutations (c.923G>T, c.958T>A, c.1151C>T, c.2341A>G, and c. 3592G>C)were discovered and only c. 923 G>T is pathogenic mutation of PLCE1.(2)The concentration of PLCE1 protein in healthy control group was 414.65 (231.20, 729.81) ng/L and the level of PLCE1 in PNS group was 237.84 (116.14, 535.85) ng/L, ( Z=-3.212, P<0.001), and the value of PNS group was lower than that in the healthy control group. Conclusions:(1)As a new pathogenic mutation of PLCE1, c.923G>T was found.(2)The phenotype of PLCE1 gene mutation in Zhuang children with PNS was diverse, and they may differ by race and region.(3) PLCE1 protein of serum may act as a protective protein to guarantee various life activities of cells by participating in multiple signal transduction pathways.
