Objective To investigate the early MRI performance and the evolution of premature infants who developed into periventficular leucomalacia (PVL) eventually.Methods Twelve premature infants diagnosed as PVL by MRI in the department of neonatology in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from Jan 2010 to Dec 2013 were selected,all of the cases underwent conventional MRI and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) examination twice,the first examinations were finished in 2 to 7 days (mean 5.5 d) after birth and the second examinations were taken in 17 to 23 days(mean 20.3 d).Results The first examination showed:all cases performed high signal intensity of periventricular matter,including 6 diffuse and symmetrical,3 linear and 3 clustered high signal.However,only 5 of the 12 cases showed slightly high signal on T1 weighted image with low signal on T2 weighted image on conventional MRI,the other 7 cases showed no change;for the reexamination:foci of different numbers and sizes showed up in all cases,with the performance of low signal on T1 weighted image,high signal on T2 weighted image and low signal on DWI correspondingly.Conclusion DWI is superior to conventional MRI in finding and forecasting PVL;diffuse white matter damage have more probability to develop into PVL,severe local white matter damage such as multi-clustered and linear damage also can develop into PVL.

Objective To clone the 5′ non-coding region (NCR) of human interferon-?-inducible protein 10(IP-10), and to identify the transcriptional activity of IP-10 promoter induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Methods Genomic DNA of lymphocytes was isolated from the human blood. With above DNA as the template, the 5'NCR of human IP-10 was amplified by nest polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method. Then, the IP-10 promoter was cloned into luciferase reporter vector, pGL3. The recombined vector was transfected into HUVEC, and then the activity of the luciferase was determined after the cells were stimulated by LPS. Results Human IP-10 promoter was obtained and the pGL3/IP-10 was successfully constructed. Moreover, the activity of luciferase driven by human IP-10 promoter was observed to obviously increase in the HUVEC stimulated by LPS. Conclusion We successfully cloned human IP-10 promoter, constructed luciferase reporter vector driven by the human IP-10 promoter, and confirmed that high transcriptional activity of human IP-10 promoter was induced by LPS in HUVEC. The results supplied an experimental base for the further study of the transcriptional regulation of human IP-10.

Objective To explore gene polymorphism of the G/C genotype of-173G/C(rs755622)in the promoter of macrophage migration inhibitory factor(MIF)gene in male population,and thus to investigate the relationship between gene polymorphism of MIF and gout.Methods A total of 380 gout patients and 378 healthy controls were enrolled.The possible association between the polymorphism of MIF-173G/C and gout in Chinese were investigated and genotype frequencies and allelic frequencies were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers(PCR-SSP)method.Hardy-Weinberg was used to verify the representativeness of the samples.Comparisons between the groups were performed with x2 test.The gene polymorphism of MIF and gout was performed by t test.Results The frequencies of GG,GC,CC genotypes were 62.1％(236 cases),34.2％(130 cases)and 3.7％(14 cases),respectively among gout patients,while they were 66.5％(252 cases),29.8％(113 cases)and 3.7％(14 cases),respectively among the controls.There was no statistical difference in MIF-173G/C genotype frequencies between gout patients and controls(x2=1.713,P=0.425).The allele frequencies of G and C in gout cases were 79.2％(602 cases)and 20.8％(158cases),while the controls were 81.4％(617 cases)and 18.6％(141 cases),and no significant difference between them could be found(x2=1.148,P=0.302).Combine GG and GC of gout into GG+GC,the association analysis of the two groups showed that,mean age,leves of glucose,TG,TC,BUN,Cr and UA of the GG+GC group and the CC group were(51±13)and(50±15)t=0.369,P=0.712;(7.1±8.8)and(6.1±1.2)mmol/L,t=0.352,P=0.725;(2.3±1.6)and(2.9±3.4)mmol/L,t=-1.207,P=0.228;(5.3±1.2)and(5.7±1.4)mmol/L,t=-1.207,P=0.228;(5.8±2.9)and(6.2±2.2)mmol/L,t=-0.513,P=0.608;(92±52)and(84±17)μmol/L,t=0.537,P=0.592;(472±103)vs(557±154)μmol/L,t=-2.949,P=0.03 respectively;no significant difference was found in the two group.Moreover,no association between MIF-173G/C genotypes and risk factors for gout were detected in gout cases by t-test.Conclusion Results of the present study suggest that the G/C genotype of-173G/C in the promoter of MIF gene is not associated with gout in male population.

AIM: To construct prokaryotic expression vector of His-tagged human IP-10 for further study of its biological function in the inflammatory response. METHODS: The coding sequence of IP-10 lacking signal peptide was amplified from human lung cDNA library by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the fragment was cloned into pET-14b plasmid for the construction of His-tagged fusion protein expressing vector, pET-14b/IP-10. After being identified by enzyme digestion and sequencing, the recombinant vector was transformed into a strain of E. coli, BL21 (DE_3). The expression of His-tagged fusion protein was induced with IPTG and purified with Ni+-NTA affinity chromatography. Then the chemotactic activity of IP-10 was determined by transwell migration assay on THP-1 cells. RESULTS: The construction of pET-14b/IP-10 recombinant vector was proved by enzyme digestion and sequencing. The fusion protein IP-10, which was purified by a routine Ni+ affinity method, had an activity on the induction of cell migration of THP-1. CONCLUSION: We successfully construct IP-10 fusion protein expressing vector and get the fusion protein with high bioactivity, which provides essential materials for the future studies on IP-10.

OBJECTIVETo explore the characteristics of cell apoptosis and proliferation of corpus cavernosum smooth muscle (CCSM) cells in diabetic rats.

METHODSFrom a SD rat model of diabetes induced by a single dose of streptozotocin, CCSM cells were isolated for primary culture and identified using immunocytochemical assays for SMα-actin. The proliferation of CCSM cells was evaluated by WST-1 assay, and flow cytometry was used to detect the cells apoptosis. Real-time fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to analyze the relative expression of proliferation cell nucleus antigen (PCNA) and caspase-3 mRNA.

RESULTSThe proliferation rate of the primarily cultured CCSM cells from diabetic rats was significantly decreased and the apoptosis rate significantly increased compared with those of the cells from the control rats. The expression of PCNA mRNA was significantly lowered while caspase-3 mRNA significantly increased in the corpus cavernosum of the diabetic rats (P<0.001).

CONCLUSIONIn rats with persisted hyperglycemia, a higher apoptosis rate and a lower proliferation rate both contribute to the reduction of CCSM cells.

Neonatal tracheal intubation is not only an important anesthesiologist's skill of neonatal anesthesia,but also a necessary skill for a neonatologist.In the process of neonatal resuscitation and anaesthetic induction of tracheal intubation,it is important to complete the tracheal intubation and control the airway rapidly.Before neonatal tracheal intubation,it is an important task for the neonatologist and anesthesiologist to select the suitable anesthetic drugs and reasonable compatibility,and to make the vital signs stable during intubation in order to reduce adverse events.This paper reviews the types and compatibility of anaesthetic drug for neonatal intubation in recent year,in order to provide reference for clinical selection.
