Isolation and characterization of marine luminous bacteria from shallow coastal waters of Taiwan.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Marine luminous bacteria were isolated and identified from samples in shallow coastal waters of Taiwan during the relatively warm seasons. METHODS: Identification of the luminous isolates was performed based on differences of phenotypic and genotypic characteristics together with data from phylogenetic analysis. RESULTS: Twenty seven strains of marine luminous bacteria were isolated. They were divided into five types based on differences of phenotypic characteristics. However, they could be clustered into only two genotypes according to the analysis of restriction patterns of polymerase chain reaction-amplified 16S rRNA genes digested with various restriction enzymes. The characterization data together with the 16S rRNA gene-based phylogenetic analysis revealed that the isolates included in phenotype I (seven isolates) could be Photobacterium leiognathi, and those included in phenotypes II-V (twenty isolates) might be classified as Vibrio harveyi. However, phylogeny based on gyrB sequences indicated that phenotypes II-V could be classified into two species, V. harveyi and Vibrio campbellii. CONCLUSION: Culturable luminous bacteria in the shallow coastal waters of Taiwan during the sampling period are dominated by V. harveyi/campbellii and P. leiognathi, and the former species appeared to be more prevalent and numerous than the latter species in general.

Heterologous expression of rat testis GABA_A receptor P3t variant in Chinese hamster ovary cells

Aim: To study the characteristics and possible retention function of specific sequence in the 5'-end of rat testis GABAA receptor β 3t variant. Methods: Rat testis GABAA receptor β 3t variant cDNA was cloned and inserted into two eukaryotic expression vectors of pEGFP-Nl and pEGFP-Cl respectively, which have EGFP reporter gene. The recombinant plasmids were transfected into Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells with the calcium phosphate co-precipitation method. Fluorescence microscope and laser confocal microscope were used to analyze the transfected cells. ConA-Texas-Red was used to label cell endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and study the located area of rat testis β 3t variant in the CHO cells. Results: When the rat testis β 3t variant express in CHO cells, there were two expression pattern, the even and the concentrated expression pattern. Although rat brain β 3 can reach cell membrane, the rat testis β 3t variant can't target to the cell membrane. It may be retained in the ER of CHO cells. Conclusion:     

影响脐血IgE值因素的研究

目的　本研究对影响脐血IgE值的可疑因素进行分析 ,探讨影响儿童食物过敏的可疑因素。方法　选取孕期妇女 10 5名及其所生婴儿 ,采用标准问卷调查获取资料 ,对影响脐血IgE的因素进行分析。 结果　母亲的过敏性疾病史、父亲过敏性疾病史中的皮炎表现型、孕期妇女过敏性疾病发作史、有过敏史妇女孕后期摄入过量的牛奶和鸡蛋均与脐血IgE值的上升有关 ,且上述 5个因素对脐血IgE水平的影响依次降低。 结论　母亲的过敏性疾病史和父亲过敏性疾病史中的皮炎表现型是导致新生儿脐血IgE值升高的主要危险因素 ;同时 ,妊娠期加强对有过敏史妇女的保护 ,防止过敏性疾病的复发 ,在孕后期控制有过敏史妇女牛奶、鸡蛋等大分子食物致敏原的摄入 ,有助于降低脐血IgE值。     

老年人尸检中前列腺腺癌的发生情况

目的　探讨老年人尸检前列腺腺癌的发生情况。　方法　采用光镜和免疫组化方法 ,观察 150例老年人 (62～ 10 2岁 )尸检前列腺标本的组织病理形态。　结果　 150例标本中原发前列腺腺癌 3 2例 (2 1.3 % ) ,其中前列腺临床癌 4例 (2 .7% ) ;前列腺潜伏癌 2 8例 (18.7% ) ,高分化 16例(57.1% ) ,中分化 10例 (3 5.7% ) ,低分化 2例 (7.1% )。潜伏癌中有高级别前列腺上皮内瘤 (HGPIN )者 9例 ,在高分化癌中占 3 1.2 % (5/ 16) ,中分化癌中占 40 .0 % (4/ 10 ) ,低分化癌中未发现 ;潜伏癌中发现有非典型腺瘤性增生 (AAH)者 2例。　结论　 60岁以上前列腺潜伏癌的发生率是欧美国家的1/ 2左右 ,绝大多数潜伏癌分化程度为高 中分化 ,HGPIN与前列腺癌有密切关系     

对病人讲真话与保密的伦理思考

医生对病人讲真话是一种义务，也是尊重病人自主权的表现，但是，在中国的传统文化背景下，对某些病人保密而仅对家其家属讲真话，这与对病人讲真话发生了矛盾，也与病人的自主权发生了冲突。然而，这种矛盾和冲突，可以得到伦理的辩护，也可以得到中国现行法律的支持，尽管如此，也应该逐渐改变。
