目的　比较肥胖患者急性期标志 -血清C 反应蛋白 (CRP)水平的变化并探讨与代谢综合征的关系。方法　选择 15 3例肥胖患者和 4 7例正常体重者 ,测定血清CRP水平 ,同时检测体重指数 (BMI)、腰围 (W )、腰臀比 (WHR)、血压、糖脂代谢参数、空腹胰岛素 (FIN)、胰岛素原 (PI)、胰岛素原 /胰岛素比值 (P/I) ,并对导致血清CRP改变的因素进行相关分析研究。结果　 ( 1)肥胖组血清CRP高于体重正常组 (P <0 .0 0 1) ,单纯肥胖组与肥胖伴糖代谢异常组之间无明显差异 (P =0 .4 13 ) ;( 2 )肥胖组相关分析显示血清CRP与W、WHR、SBP、TG、PI、HOMA IR、P/I呈正相关 ;( 3 )矫正年龄和BMI后 ,血清CRP与SBP、WHR和RI仍存在相关性 ,与其他变量的相关性消失。结论　 1、肥胖患者血清CRP水平明显高于非肥胖者 ,与SBP、TG、HOMA IR呈正相关 ,提示肥胖患者血清CRP水平升高与代谢综合征、胰岛素抵抗有密切关系 ;( 2 )血清CRP水平与P/I也呈正相关 ,提示血清CRP升高与 β 细胞功能缺陷可能也有一定关系 ;( 3 )BMI、WHR、SBP和PI是血清CRP升高的主要相关因素

Folding and function of the myelin proteins from primary sequence data.

To explain how the myelin proteins are involved in the organization and function of the myelin sheath requires knowing their molecular structures. Except for P2 basic protein of PNS myelin, however, their structures are not yet known. As an aid to predicting their molecular folding and possible functions, we have developed a FORTRAN program to analyze the primary sequence data for proteins, and have applied this to the myelin proteins in particular. In this program, propensities for the secondary structure conformations as well as physical-chemical parameters are assigned to the amino acids and the pattern of these parameters is examined by calculating their average values, autocorrelation functions and Fourier transforms. To compare two proteins, their sequences are aligned using a unitary scoring matrix, and homologies are searched by plotting a two-dimensional map of the correlation coefficients. Comparison of the corresponding myelin basic proteins (MBP) and P0 glycoproteins (P0) for rodent and shark showed that the conserved residues included most of the amino acids which were predicted to form the alpha or beta conformations, while the altered residues were mainly in the hydrophilic and turn or coil regions. In both rodent and shark the putative extracellular domain of P0 glycoprotein displayed consecutive peaks of beta propensity similar to that for the immunoglobulins, while the cytoplasmic domain showed alpha-beta-alpha folding. To trace the immunoglobulin fold along the P0 sequence, we compared the beta propensity curve of P0 with that of the immunoglobulin M603, whose three-dimensional structure has been determined. We propose that the flat beta-sheets of P0 are orientated parallel to the membrane surface to facilitate their homotypic interaction in the extracellular space. An extra beta-fold in the extracellular domain of shark P0 compared with rodent P0 was found, and this may result in a greater attraction between the apposed extracellular surfaces and may account for a smaller extracellular space as measured by x-ray diffraction. A computer search of the myelin protein sequences for functional motifs revealed sites for N-glycosylation, phosphorylation, nucleotide binding, and certain enzyme activities. We note especially that there are potential nucleotide binding sites in proteolipid protein (PLP), MBP and 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase (CNP). This is consistent with the experimental observations that PLP acts like an ionophore or proton channel when reconstituted into planar lipid bilayers, MBP binds GTP, and CNP catalyzes in vitro the hydrolysis of 2',3'-nucleotides into corresponding 2'-nucleotides.     

牛骨形态发生蛋白的提取及异位诱导成骨的研究
