DOG1是一种敏感和特异性的胃肠道间质瘤的标记物

胃肠道间质瘤（GIST）是胃肠道最常见的间叶性肿瘤，大多数含有受体酪氨酸激酶基因c-KIT或PDGFRA的活化突变。GIST的诊断主要依赖于免疫组化KIT／CD117蛋白的表达，然而有4％～15％的GIST不表达CD117，导致诊断困难。DOG1是应用基因表达谱技术发现的一种高度表达于GIST的基因，作者采用2种新的鼠单克隆DOGI抗体（DOG1．1和DOG1．3），

Maternal genetic polymorphisms in CYP1A1, GSTM1 and GSTT1 and the risk of hypospadias

Hypospadias is one of the most common congenital anomalies. Increased exposure to environmental factors (endocrine-disrupting chemicals and smoking) or maternal endogenous estrogen may cause hypospadias because male sexual differentiation is dependent on normal androgen homeostasis. Moreover, interactions between genetic factors and cigarette smoking and other chemicals have been suggested. It has been demonstrated that the CYP1A1 metabolizes not only environmental chemicals but also estrogens, and glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) are detoxification enzymes that protect cells from toxicants by conjugation with glutathione. In this study, to investigate the association of CYP1A1 (MspI), GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms with hypospadias, a case-control study of 31 case mothers who had boys with hypospadias and 64 control mothers was performed in Japan. These polymorphisms were investigated by PCR-based methods using DNA from peripheral lymphocytes. We found that the heterozygous CYP1A1 and heterozygous and homozygous CYP1A1 were less frequent in the case mothers than in the control mothers [adjusted odds ratio (OR)=0.17, 95% confidence interval (CI)=0.04-0.74, OR = 0.28, 95% CI = 0.08-0.97, respectively]. We found no effect of maternal smoking on the hypospadias risks among the gene polymorphisms. The results suggest that mothers with the CYP1A1 MspI variant allele may have a decreased risk for hypospadias.     

NDE1 and NDEL1: Multimerisation,alternate splicing and DISC1 interaction

Nuclear Distribution Factor E Homolog 1 (NDE1) and NDE-Like 1 (NDEL1) are highly homologous mammalian proteins. However, whereas NDEL1 is well studied, there is remarkably little known about NDE1. We demonstrate the presence of multiple isoforms of both NDE1 and NDEL1 in the brain, showing that NDE1 binds directly to multiple isoforms of Disrupted in Schizophrenia 1 (DISC1), and to itself. We also show that NDE1 can complex with NDEL1. Together these results predict a high degree of complexity of DISC1-mediated regulation of neuronal activity.     

HLA-DRB1, -DQA1, -DQB1, -DPA1 and -DPB1 genes in Japanese multiple sclerosis patients

Japanese MS patients and controls were examined for the distribution of HLA-DRB1, -DQA1, -DQB1, -DPA1 and -DPB1 alleles using in vitro amplification of genomic DNA and probing with sequence-specific oligonucleotides. No significant difference in frequency of the examined alleles was observed among the two groups. This is in contrast to Norwegian MS patients, where an association to a combination of certain DQA1 and DQB1 alleles has previously been demonstrated.     

AhR途径,CYP1A1、CYP1B1,雌激素代谢及作用过程中的调节

多环芳烃和多卤化烃是环境中广泛分布的有害物质,可通过与细胞芳烃受体结合,从而影响外来化合物代谢酶系如细胞色素氧化酶P450 1A1、1B1的表达,并通过这些酶的催化作用调控雌激素的代谢及作用,进而部分决定了雌激素对机体的作用效应。上述复杂的过程可受到多种因素的影响。

Glutathione-s-transferase M1 and T1 polymorphisms and associations with type 1 diabetes age-at-onset

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by pancreatic beta cell destruction involving auto-reactive T-cells, pro-inflammatory cytokines, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and loss of insulin. Monozygotic twin studies show a 20–60% concordance with T1D indicating there may be an environmental component to the disease. Glutathione (GSH) is the major endogenous antioxidant produced by the cell. GSH participates directly in the neutralization of free radicals and plays a role in the immune response. Glutathione-s-transferases (GSTs) conjugate GSH to free-radicals or xenobiotics. GST activity depletes GSH levels and may either detoxify or enhance the toxicity of a compound. Glutathione-s-transferase mu 1 (GSTM1) and glutathione-s-transferase theta 1 (GSTT1) have polymorphic homozygous deletion (null) genotypes resulting in complete absence of enzyme activity. GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes in Caucasian populations have frequencies of approximately 40–60% and 15–20%, respectively. GST null genotypes have been associated with susceptibility to cancer and protection against chronic pancreatitis. The aim of this study was to investigate associations with GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms in a group T1D patients and control subjects 0–35 years old who participated in the Combined Swedish Childhood Diabetes Registry and Diabetes Incidence Study (1986–1988). Results show that the presence of the GSTM1 and not the null genotype (OR, 2.13 95% CI, 1.23–3.70, p-value, 0.007, Bonferroni corrected p-value, 0.035) may be a susceptibility factor in T1D 14–20 years old. These results suggest that the GSTM1 null genotype is associated with T1D protection and T1D age-at-onset and that susceptibility to T1D may involve GST conjugation.     

FoxO1在小鼠感染流感病毒H1N1中的作用及机制

目的探讨叉头盒转录因子O1（forkhead box O1,FoxO1）在小鼠抵抗流感病毒H1N1感染中发挥的作用及机制。方法用琼脂糖凝胶电泳鉴定小鼠的基因型后,将小鼠分为2组:条件性敲除NKp46⁺细胞中FoxO1基因的Foxo1^△NK组小鼠,以及对照组WT小鼠;2组小鼠使用滴鼻法同1天感染流感病毒H1N1,每天记录小鼠体质量及2组小鼠的死亡情况;在2组小鼠体质量及状态差异明显的第10天取样,HE染色法观察肺组织病理;Luminex液相芯片技术检测肺组织匀浆上清中36种细胞因子的表达情况;流式细胞术检测肺组织免疫细胞的比例变化。结果与WT组相比,感染流感病毒后Foxo1^△NK组小鼠死亡率增加,体质量下降更加严重;肺组织病理显示炎症反应减弱;肺组织匀浆上清中的细胞因子表达水平下降,ENA-78、IFN-α、IL-4、IL-5显著降低;肺组织免疫细胞中CD3⁺NKp46⁺NKT细胞比例显著下降。结论 FoxO1基因的缺失加重了小鼠流感感染进程,可能是通过抑制依赖FoxO1基因调控...     

Identification of two new HLA-DRB1 alleles,DRB1*1138 and DRB1*1344

Two new HLA-DRB1 alleles have been identified by sequencing based typing (SBT). HLA-DRB1*1138 and DRB1*1344 were discovered after following up ambiguous results involving unusual alleles after DRB1 generic typing.     

Distinct Kinetics Features of LFA-1 and Mac-1 in Neutrophil Activation

LFA-1 and Mac-l, two [32 integrin members constitutively expressed on neutrophils, mediate leukocyte recruitment cascade by binding to the same ligand of ICAM-1. The slow rolling and firm adhesion of leukoeytes rely on LFA-1 while the cell crawling is dependent on Mac-1. We hypothesized that their distinct roles were likely attributed to the differences in the binding kinetics or in the diverse responses of outside-in and inside-out signaling. In this study, we compared the ICAM-1 binding features between soluble or membrane-expressed LFA-1 and Mac-1 with different affinity conformations using optical trap technique. Our data indicate that the affinity up-regulation from wide type （WT） to high affinity （HA） is off-rate dependent for LFA-1 but on-rate dependent for Mac-1. The structural bases of this new finding were found to be consistent with our previous simulations. These results furthered our understanding on their function differences under shear flow.     

Circulatinglong non-coding RNA FEZF1-AS1 and AFAP1-AS1 serve as potential diagnostic biomarkers for gastric cancer

BackgroundGrowing evidence indicates that two long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), FEZ family zinc finger 1 antisense RNA 1 (FEZF1-AS1) and Actin filament associated protein 1 antisenseRNA1 (AFAP1-AS1), are highly expressed in different cancers, including gastric cancer (GC). However, the expression pattern and clinical utility of these two lncRNAs are still unknown.MethodsSerum expression levels of FEZF1-AS1 andAFAP1-AS1 were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). CEA and CA19-9 were detected by ARCHITET I2000 SR. Analyses were all performed using SPSS software version 20.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, USA). P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.ResultsDetection of serum FEZF1-AS1 and AFAP1-AS1 showed both of them were up-regulated in GC patients compared with the normal controls (p < 0.0001), and high serum expression levels were correlated with tumor size, tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage and lymph node metastasis. Besides, the area under the ROC curve (AUC) demonstrated the two lncRNAs had higher diagnostic utility than CEA and CA19-9. Furthermore, when combined the two lncRNAs as a model, it yielded an AUC of 0.866, and the combination of the model, CEA and CA19-9 could observably improve diagnostic sensitivity to 95.5 %. What’s more, circulating FEZF1-AS1 and AFAP1-AS1 were significantly decreased after the GC patients underwent the operation (both p < 0.001).ConclusionOur study indicated that serum FEZF1-AS1 and AFAP1-AS1 had better sensitivity and efficiency for the diagnosis of GC and the combination of the two lncRNAs might be used as a potential prognostic indicator in GC.
