The continuing discoveries of novel classes of RNA modifications in various organisms have raised the need for improving sensitive, convenient, and reliable methods for quantifying RNA modifications. In particular, a subset of small RNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs) and Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), are modified at their 3'-terminal nucleotides via 2'-O-methylation. However, quantifying the levels of these small RNAs is difficult because 2'-O-methylation at the RNA 3'-terminus inhibits the activity of polyadenylate polymerase and T4 RNA ligase. These two enzymes are indispensable for RNA labeling or ligation in conventional miRNA quantification assays. In this study, we profiled 3'-terminal 2'-O-methyl plant miRNAs in the livers of rice-fed mice by oxidative deep sequencing and detected increasing amounts of plant miRNAs with prolonged oxidation treatment. We further compared the efficiency of stem-loop and poly(A)-tailed RT-qPCR in quantifying plant miRNAs in animal tissues and identified stem-loop RT-qPCR as the only suitable approach. Likewise, stem-loop RT-qPCR was superior to poly(A)-tailed RT-qPCR in quantifying 3'-terminal 2'-O-methyl piRNAs in human seminal plasma. In summary, this study established a standard procedure for quantifying the levels of 3'-terminal 2'-O-methyl miRNAs in plants and piRNAs. Accurate measurement of the 3'-terminal 2'-O-methylation of small RNAs has profound implications for understanding their pathophysiologic roles in biological systems.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNAs that function as post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression. The deregulated expression of miRNAs is associated with a variety of diseases, including breast cancer. In the present study, we found that miR-495 was markedly up-regulated in clinical breast cancer samples by quantitative real time-PCR (qRT-PCR). Junctional adhesion molecule A (JAM-A) was predicted to be a potential target of miR-495 by bioinformatics analysis and was subsequently verified by luciferase assay and Western blotting. JAM-A was found to be negatively correlated with the migration of breast cancer cells through loss-of-function and gain-of-function assays, and the inhibition of JAM-A by miR-495 promoted the migration of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells. Furthermore, overexpression of JAM-A could restore miR-495-induced breast cancer cell migration. Taken together, our findings suggest that miR-495 could facilitate breast cancer progression through the repression of JAM-A, making this miRNA a potential therapeutic target.

In order to analyze the genotype of RhD-negative blood donors with immune antibodies in Harbin, the voluntary blood donors from 1 April 2008 to 30 september 2011 were detected serologically to determine the RhD-negative donors. The blood donors confirmed to be RhD negative were detected to screen the immune antibodies, the samples with immune antibodies were analyzed by PCR-SSP and DNA sequencing to detect RhD genotype. The results showed that the 12 cases of the immune antibodies (0.95%) were screened out from 1265 cases of RhD-negative donors, among which 9 cases showed anti-D-antibody, 3 cases showed anti-(D+C) antibody; 10 cases were RhD-negative, 2 cases were RHD 711D(el)C. It is concluded that RhD negative and RHD 711D(el)C are easy to be immunized to produce the immune antibodies; RhD-negative population, especially women should be highly aware of avoiding mis-transfusion of RhD-positive blood, and also avoiding multiple pregnancies resulting in newborn's hemolytic disease.

Objective To study hepatic blood flow exclusion for the resection of liver tumors involving hepatic hilar region. Methods The clinical data of 16 cases of liver tumors involving hepatic hilar region from January 2005 to March 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. Liver tumors were resected by the technique combining hepatic portal control ( Pringle's maneuver) and normothermie total hepatic vascular exclusion (NHVE). The relation of liver tumors to major vessels, episodes and durations of hepatic blood flow exclusion, intraoperative blood loss and blood transfusion, postoperative complications were analyzed. Results The technique combining Pringle's maneuver and NHVE was used in 16 cases. The mean episodes and durations of Pringle's maneuver were (3.8±1.6) min and (46.6±28.8) min, respectively. The mean episodes and durations of NHVE were (1.6±0.4) min and (23.5±8.2) min, respectively. The mean amount of intraoperativ blood loss was (1250±320) ml, blood transfusion (860±245) ml. Major hepatic vessel injuried were repaired intraoperatively including inferior vena cave in 4 cases, main hepatic veins in 2 cases and portal veins in 2 cases. The serum alanine transaminase(ALT) and bilirubin raised in different degrees after operation, and recovered gradually to normal level. There was no postoperative mortality and serious postoperative complications. Conclusions Alternative use of hepatic blood flow exclusion combining Pringle maneuver and NHVE reduces the time of total hepatic vascular exclusion, improves safety for resection of liver tumors involving hepatic hilar region.
