Novel multi-probe RNase protection assay set for detection of endotoxin associated receptors gene expression

Objective: To construct the multi-probe ribonuclease protection assay (RPA) template set to be used for detecting expression patterns of MD-2, TLR4, CD14 mRNAs in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Methods : The designed cDNA fragments of the three genes were generated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)using specific primers and directionally cloned into EcoR I and Hind III sites of expression plasmid pSP72 containing the T7/ promoter, the linearized plasmids was used as template to synthesize anti-sense RNA probes. Then we extracted total RNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and detected the dynamic expression patterns of the three genes with RPA method. Results: The proper sequence and orientation of the template set were confirmed by sequencing and the template set was successfully used to assay TLR4, MD-2 and CD14 mRNAs in human PBMC. The results showed that the three detected genes decreased transiently 1-3 hours after 100 ng/ml LPS stimulation. Conclusions: These new RPA multi-probe set provided valuable tool for the simultaneous quantitative determination of expression of TLR4, CD14 and MD-2 mRNAs in both constitutive and inducible types.

目的：探讨儿童甲亢患者糖代谢紊乱的特点。方法：用SUPER GLUCOCARD^TM血糖仪和放射免疫方法检测29例甲亢患儿餐前、餐后60min、120min血糖和餐前、餐后60min胰岛素、C肽、胰高糖素、皮质醇及T3、T4、TSH、TGA、TMA（其中10例糖耐量减低为甲亢1组，另19例糖耐量正常为甲亢2组），并与20例健康儿童进行比较。结果：（1）34．5％甲亢患儿出现糖代谢紊乱，病程大于1年和小于1年糖代谢紊乱发生率为50％，9％（P＜0．05）。（2）甲亢1组餐后60min胰岛素、胰岛素／血糖、胰岛素／胰高糖素显著升高（P＜0．05）。结论：甲亢儿童存在糖代谢紊乱现象，表现为葡萄糖耐量减低和胰岛素拮抗，其发生与病程有关，病程较长，发生率较高。糖代谢紊乱可能与自身免疫、胰岛β细胞功能受损及胰岛素拮抗有关。     

A method for creating an enormous medical knowledge base

Using a high-density knowledge representation method designed by us, we have developed the Enormous Knowledge Base of Disease Diagnosis Criteria (EKBDDC). It contains diagnostic criteria of 1001 diagnostic entities and describes nearly 4000 items of diagnostic indicators. It is the core of a huge medical project—Electronic Brain Medical Erudite (EBME). This enormous knowledge base was implemented initially on a low-cost popular microcomputer, which can aid in prompting of typical disease and in teaching of diagnosis. This knowledge base will be constantly expanded and adapted to the need of diagnosing of atypical diseases. By means of a software interface it will be connected with the international medical information systems. We have also explored an assembling technique of medical knowledge base. To test the behavior of EBME we performed a series of trials with a total of 815 cases. The diagnostic accordance rates were 89.7, 89.4, and 85%, respectively. It demonstrated that this system should be improved before clinical application.     

改良以聚羟基乙酸为支架同种异体组织工程化塑形软骨的构建

OBJECTIVE: To improve the method for constructing allogeneic molded cartilage by means of tissue engineering techniques. METHODS: The chondrocytes from the rib and articular cartilage of infant rabbits were harvested by type II collagenase digestion, followed by in vitro cell culture for 3 to 4 passages. The chondrocytes were then prepared into cell suspension and seeded onto C -and O -shaped pre-molded polyglycolic acid (PGA) scaffolds form chondrocyte-PGA composites, which were subsequently cultured in vitro for 7 to 10 d before implanted subcutaneously into adult rabbits. Improvement was made upon conventional shaping and implantation procedures. Morphological observation and cartilage regeneration assessment were conducted at different time points following the implantation, in comparison with the observation by conventional shaping and implantation methods. RESULTS: During in vitro cell culture, the rate of viable chondrocytes in the final cell suspension was (92+/-2)% after well-controlled prolongation of digestion trypsin, similar to the viable cell rate (93+/-2) % by traditional procedures (P>0.05). Gross observation found milk-white, newly generated cartilage which had good flexibility 4 weeks after implantation, and after 8 weeks and later, the cartilage took on the color of porcelain-white. Histological examination showed a few inflammatory cells around the newly generated immature cartilage 4 weeks after implantation, and the inflammation abated when the newly generated cartilage acquired similar histological properties to that of the original cartilage 8 weeks postoperatively and later. After 16 weeks, no blood vessel or capillaries were visible within the new cartilage. CONCLUSION: The chondrocyte viability is not affected when the cells are treated with well-controlled prolonged digestion with trypsin during in vitro cell culture. Improved PGA scaffolds shaping and the implantation procedure facilitate the regeneration of the cartilage after the implantation of the composites.

降钙素基因相关肽对犬冠脉流量及冠状动脉的作用

本研究通过整体及离体灌流实验观察到重庆冠脉狭窄时，犬冠脉流量（ＣＢＦ），平均动脉压（ＭＡＰ）明显减小，而心率（ＨＲ）则增加。狭窄３０ｍｉｎ后由冠状动脉注射降钙素基因相关肽（ＣＧＲＰ）０．３μｇ／ｋｇ后，ＣＢＦ、ＭＡＰ和ＨＲ可恢复正常水平。同时，缺血犬的离体冠状动脉对ＣＧＲＰ的反应也出现改变。大冠脉舒张反应明显降低，而小冠脉的舒张反应与正常相比，无明显改变，这可能与缺血后大冠脉的内皮细胞容易损伤有关。同时也提示:急性心肌缺血时，冠脉流量的减少，主要由于小冠状动脉收缩所致。
