OBJECTIVES: To investigate the genetic causes of hearing loss with enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA) in two children from unrelated two Chinese families. METHODS: Sanger sequencing of all coding exons in SLC26A4 (encoding Pendrin protein) was performed on the two patients, their sibling and parents respectively. To predict and visualize the potential functional outcome of the novel variant, model building, structure analysis, and in silico analysis were further conducted. RESULTS: The results showed that the proband from family I harbored a compound heterozygote of SLC26A4 c.1174A>T (p.N392Y) mutation and c.1181delTCT (p.F394del) variant in exon 10, potentially altering Pendrin protein structure. In family II, the proband was identified in compound heterozygosity with a known mutation of c.919-2A>G in the splice site of intron 7 and a novel mutation of c.1023insC in exon 9, which results in a frameshift and translational termination, consequently leading to truncated Pendrin protein. Sequence homology analysis indicated that all the mutations localized at high conservation sites, which emphasized the significance of these mutations on Pendrin spatial organization and function. CONCLUSION: In summary, this study revealed two compound heterozygous mutations (c.1174A>T/c.1181delTCT; c.919- 2A>G/c.1023insC) in Pendrin protein, which might account for the deafness of the two probands clinically diagnosed with EVA. Thus this study contributes to improve understanding of the causes of hearing loss associated with EVA and develop a more scientific screening strategy for deafness.

Objective Preliminarily discussing the effects of VEGF and SOX2 on metastasis and progno-sis of squamous cell lung carcinoma(SCLC).Methods Using immunohistochemical method to detect 47 cases of pulmonary squamous cell carcinoma and 30 cases of para-carcinoma tissue in the expression of VEGF and SOX2, using statistical methods to analyze the expression of VEGF and SOX2 and the relationship between clinical parame-ters and its relationship with prognosis. Results The positive expression rates of VEGF,SOX2 in SCLC tissues were higher than adjacent normal tissues.There was a significant correlation between VEGF and SOX2 expression. VEGF expression was associated with lymph node metastases and TNM stage.SOX2 expression was associated with tumor differentiation and lymph node status.Survival analysis indicated that VEGF(+)/SOX2(+)patients had the worst prognosis.Furthermore,multivariate analysis suggested that tumor diameter and lymph node metastases were independent prognostic factors for SCLC. Conclusion The expression of VEGF was positively correlated with lymph node metastasis and clinical stage,the expression of SOX2 was positively correlated with tumor differentia-tion degree and lymph node metastasis,and high expression of VEGF and SOX2 may indicate lung squamous can-cer patients with poor prognosis.

Objective Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (poly IC) plays an important role in the central nervous system damage and repair.This study was to investigate the effect of poly IC on inflammatory response after spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury (SCIRI) in rats.Methods A total of 72 healthy adult male SD rats were equally randomized into a sham-operation, an ischemia-reperfusion (IR), and a poly IC group.The abdominal cavities of the rats were cut open and closed again in the sham-operation group and SCIRI models were established in the IR and poly IC groups by clamping the abdominal aorta, followed by reperfusion 60 minutes later and intraperitoneal injection of saline (0.1 mL) and poly IC (1.25 μg/g), respectively.At 6, 24, and 48 hours after modeling, BBB scores were obtained and the contents of TNFα, IL-1β and IFN-β were measured by ELISA.At 48 hours, the expressions of NF-κB and IL-10 were determined by immunohistochemistry, the area of ischemic necrosis in the spinal cord tissue was calculated by TTC staining, and its morphological changes were observed under the optical microscope.Results At 48 hours after modeling, the BBB scores were significantly lower in the IR and poly IC groups than in the sham-operation group (3.80±0.75 and 9.40±0.49 vs 20.00±0.00, P<0.01), though higher in the poly IC than in the IR group (P<0.01).The rats of the IR group showed extensive degenerated neurons in the gray substance of the spinal cord, with scattered foci of bleeding and blood coagulation, while those of the poly IC group exhibited fewer necrotic neurons and basically normal nuclear morphology, though with a few swelling cells.The ischemic necrosis area of the spinal cord tissue was significantly reduced.The expression of NF-κB was decreased while that of IL-10 increased markedly.Compared with the IR group, the poly IC group showed a significant increase in the expression of IFNβ (117.23±6.06 vs 55.65±4.02, P<0.01) and a remarkably decrease in the expressions of TNFα (190.45±4.16 vs 201.82±2.18, P<0.01) and IL-1β (39.27±2.48 vs 50.59±1.47, P<0.01) at 48 hours.Conclusion Poly IC can protect the spinal cord and reduce inflammatory response after spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Objective To study the effects of abiotic elicitors methyl jasmonate (MeJA) and salicylic acid (SA) on the alkaloids accumulation and related enzymes metabolism inPinellia ternata suspension cell cultures. Methods Using the leaf petioles-derived suspension cell cultures as the study object, the culture duration, concentrations of MeJA and SA were determined to get the optimal alkaloids accumulation, and the activities of metabolic enzymes IMP dehydrogenase and sAMP synthase were also measured.Results A 9-fold of dried biomass and a 3-fold of alkaloids accumulation were observed inP. ternata suspension cell cultures after culture for 21 d. Both MeJA and SA could significantly promote the accumulation of alkaloids inP. ternata suspension cells. 150 μmol/L MeJA enhanced alkaloids content (4.7 mg/gDW) by 3.6 folds in comparison with control group, whereas 50 μmol/L SA showed a 2.5-fold increase. Meanwhile, 100 μmol/L MeJA and 50 μmol/L SA promoted the increase in IMP dehydrogenase activity by 3.0 and 3.7 fold respectively, and 150 μmol/L MeJA and 100 μmol/L SA showed the increase by 2.6 and 4.4 fold respectively.Conclusion Proper adding exogenous MeJA and SA can promote the accumulation of alkaloids inPinellia ternata suspension cell cultures.
