两例补体第8成份β亚基缺陷家系患者的进一步分子遗传基础研究

目的　在白人群体中 ,导致人类补体第 8成份 β亚基缺陷的分子基础主要是在编码 β亚基基因的第 9外显子上发生碱基 C→ T的突变 ,从而形成终止密码 ,导致 C8β亚基不能完全合成。国外学者在两例 C8β亚基完全缺失的患者家系研究中 ,发现这两例β亚基缺失个体只是第 9外显子上碱基 C→ T突变的杂合子 ,现进一步寻找这两例 C8β亚基完全缺失的分子遗传学机理。方法　对两例 C8β亚基完全缺失患者的 C8β编码基因的全部 11个外显子的 PCR扩增产物进行 DNA测序分析并与正常人 DNA序列进行对比。结果　两例完全性 C8β亚基缺失患者的蛋白质编码基因中 ,分别在第 3外显子的 2 98和 388位置发现了 C→T突变 ,同时对这两个突变位点的家系分析也证实 ,位于第 3外显子上的这两个突变位点是独立于第 9外显子的突变而遗传。结论　所发现的两个突变位点均能形成终止密码而导致 C8β亚基合成提前终止 ,因此这两例患者 C8β亚基完全缺失的分子遗传学机理是由于编码 C8β亚基的基因在第 3和第 9外显子上同时发生了点突变 ,进而形成终止密码造成 C8β亚基合成终止所致。     

Impedance plethysmography in the diagnosis of arterial and venous disease

The objective of this paper is to review the theoretical basis and clinical application of electrical impedance plethysmography in the noninvasive evaluation of peripheral arterial and venous disease. Theoretical, experimental and clinical studies have now demonstrated a direct relationship between electrical impedance changes and limb volume changes. Potential sources of error have also been identified. This has led to the development of clinical tests based on impedance plethysmography for the detection of peripheral arterial disease, venous insufficiency and venous outflow obstruction. Impedance plethysmography, using the method of venous occlusion, is presently the most commonly employed noninvasive method for the detection of deep venous thrombosis.     

Association of TNF-beta polymorphism with disease severity among patients infected with hepatitis C virus

The pathogenesis of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection remains unclear. Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) is alleged to contribute in the pathogenesis of chronic HCV infection. Single nucleotide polymorphism in TNF-alpha and -beta genes could influence the outcome of HCV infection. The aim was to study single nucleotide polymorphism in TNF-alpha promoter region and Nco I polymorphisms in the TNF-beta gene in patients with chronic hepatitis C. Fifty-two patients with histologically proven chronic hepatitis, who had raised ALT levels (>1.5 x ULN) and were HCV RNA positive, were studied. Genotyping of -308 promoter variant of TNF-alpha was performed by PCR with primers that incorporated an Nco I restriction site. For PCR typing of the TNF-beta Nco I restriction fragment length polymorphism, sequence specific primers were used. Polymorphism in the TNF-alpha G/G, G/A and A/A allele was not different between HCV patients and healthy controls. TNF-beta A/A allele was significantly more common (P = 0.02) in patients (28.8%) as compared to controls (12.8%), whereas no significant difference was observed for TNF-beta G/A and G/G alleles [corrected]. Nco I TNF-beta A/A was strongly associated with -308 TNF-alpha G/G (RR of HCV persistence = 4.9), indicating possible linkage between TNF-beta A/A and TNF-alpha G/G allele. Patients with severe hepatic fibrosis more frequently had the TNF-beta A/A allele as compared to patients with mild disease (P = 0.04). Immunogenetic factors, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms in TNF-beta (A/A allele), may affect the natural course of HCV infection, in particular, the disease progression. Larger studies including cytokine expression profiles are needed to fully understand the contribution of the polymorphisms described in the pathogenesis of chronic hepatitis C.     

Finite element solution of steady state temperature distribution in the human torso

A finite element model of the steady state temperature distribution in the human torso is developed. The torso is approximated by a circular cylinder of core surrounded by a layer of muscle and insulating layers of fat and skin. The model is simplified by neglecting longitudinal heat flow. The region occupied by a circular cross-section of the torso is discretized into a mesh of triangles and the boundary of the torso, that is, the skin surface, is consequently approximated by a polygon. The elliptic partial differential equation governing the steady state temperature distribution, together with the associated boundary conditions, are expressed in equivalent variational form. Linear basis functions are used and the resulting integral is minimized over the region bounded by the approximating polygon. Results for two numerical experiments are determined by solving systems of linear equations.
