Cytogenetic and molecular cytogenetic studies of a case of interstitial deletion of proximal 15q

A 4-month-old child with multiple anomalies was determined to have an interstitial deletion of chromosome 15, i.e., del(15) (q12q14). The deletion appears not to be a typical deletion of 15q12 such as seen in Angelman and Prader-Willi syndromes, but appears to be more distal, involving either loss of all of 15q12 and part of 15q14, or part of 15q12 and most of 15q14. In either case, 15q13 is missing. Fluorescent in situ hybridization with probes for 15 centromere (D15Z), pericentromeric satellite sequences (D15Z1), and chromosome 15 painting probes shows the deleted chromosome to involve only 15 and no other acrocentric chromosome. Hybridization with probes for the AS and PWS loci (D15S11 and GABAB3, Oncor) show both sites to be intact in the deleted 15. The case is compared with two other reports with overlapping interstitial deletions of proximal 15q, neither of which shows typical features of Angelman or Prader-Willi syndromes.     

骨折愈合塑形的力学机理I^＊——骨表面再造理论的应用

深入探讨长骨骨折愈合塑形阶段的力学机理,采用骨表面再造理论与有限元结合的方法。我们选取用应变能密度作为力学激励的骨表面再造理论,有限元分析采用三维的空间模型,利用我们编制的长骨表面再造系统“BRSS97”对长骨骨折愈合塑形阶段的三种类型：外骨痂型、骨内缺损型和骨外缺损型的力学机理进行研究。结果表明：骨痂可以完全吸收,骨缺损可以恢复,三种情况下骨均可以恢复到正常状态。由此说明长骨骨折愈合塑形过程就是骨材料对力学激励的适应过程。     

The generation and characterization of a cell line derived from a sporadic renal angiomyolipoma: use of telomerase to obtain stable populations of cells from benign neoplasms

Angiomyolipomas are benign tumors of the kidney derived from putative perivascular epithelioid cells, that may undergo differentiation into cells with features of melanocytes, smooth muscle, and fat. To gain further insight into angiomyolipomas, we have generated the first human angiomyolipoma cell line by sequential introduction of SV40 large T antigen and human telomerase into human angiomyolipoma cells. These cells show phenotypic characteristics of angiomyolipomas, namely differentiation markers of smooth muscle (smooth muscle actin), adipose tissue (peroxisome proliferator-activator receptor gamma, PPARgamma), and melanocytes (microophthalmia, MITF), thus demonstrating that a single cell type can exhibit all of these phenotypes. These cells should serve as a valuable tool to elucidate signal transduction pathways underlying renal angiomyolipomas.     

慢性乙肝患者NK,ADCC活性及其对IFN—α,IFN—γ的反应

本文用Hela细胞乳酸脱氢酶释放法测定了42例慢性乙肝病人外周血NK、ADCC活性及其对IFN-α100U/ml、500U/ml及IFN-γ500U/ml预处理4小时后的反应。结果显示,病人PBL NK,ADCC活性与正常对照有显著差别,经IFNs处理后,其NK或/和ADCC活性均有不同程度的升高反应,从而提示了IFNs在慢性肝病治疗中的重要作用。     

空肠弯曲菌HSP43诱导自身免疫机理──分子模拟和抗原优势

我们曾发现空肠弯曲菌４３ｋＤ热休克蛋白（ＨＳＰ４３）能诱导小鼠产生自身免疫应答，本文则进一步分析了这种诱导作用的机理。二株针对ＨＳＰ６０保守区序列的单克隆抗体ＩＩＨ９和ＭＬ－３０不但能结合人及小鼠细胞中ＨＳＰ６０家族成员，而且也能结合ＨＳＰ４３，表明ＨＳＰ４３、人及小鼠ＨＳＰ６０三者均属同一家族成员，具有序列上的高度同源性。小鼠用空肠弯曲菌免疫后出现了针对１０种菌体蛋白的抗体，其中最早被诱导的抗体是针对ＨＳＰ４３的，并且该种抗体在随后８０ｄ观察期间内保持了较高活性，表明ＨＳＰ４３是优势抗原。本文结果提示，ＨＳＰ４３较易被免疫系统识别而产生应答，通过和宿主ＨＳＰ６０高度序列同源性而可能呈现分子模拟，从而诱导自身免疫损伤。     

6024例分娩的方式选择与新生儿结局

目的探讨阴道分娩和剖宫产对新生儿的风险。方法对6024例妊娠的分娩方式、剖宫产指征以及新生儿结局回顾性分析。结果剖宫产率为35.3%,其指征主要是头盆不称、社会因素、宫内窘迫、臀位等。分娩新生儿6016例,其中因各种疾患转儿科822例,占13.5%。主要转科原因为早产儿低体重、窒息、高胆红素血症和吸入综合症,各疾病发病率与分娩方式无关。结论剖宫产没有增加新生儿的风险,仍是解决难产的重要手段,但应严格控制手术指征。     

拇指背动脉岛状皮瓣再造拇指的解剖学研究

作者在18只尸体手标本上,对拇指背动脉进行了显微解剖研究,发现该动脉出现率较恒定,起始部血管外径平均为0.63mm,动脉可解剖长度为7.2cm,血管分布范围包括第一掌骨背侧、部份鱼际区及拇指近节背桡侧5×10cm 的皮肤。以拇指背动脉及与其相连的桡动脉远段为蒂,可以游离成一个理想的岛状皮瓣,适用于拇指再造及邻近的组织缺损修复。     

Approaches to functional genomics: potential of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization--time of flight mass spectrometry combined with separation methods for the analysis of DNA in biological samples

MALDI-TOF MS has potential as a valuable technique in DNA mapping studies and may well be complementary to other approaches to DNA analysis such as gel electrophoresis and sequencing. This study used 2,6-dihydroxyacetophenone (DHAP) mixed with diammonium hydrogen citrate (DAHC) as the matrix. In addition, recent technical advances such as time lag focussing (TLF) and better selection of matrices (such as 3-hydroxypicolinic acid (3 HPA) and picolinic acid (PA)) extended the range of DNA fragments that can be studied by this approach. The following samples were investigated: Poly-T mixture (dT 15, 19, 20, 25, 74 and 75), plasmid pBR322 derived oligonucleotides (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 19, 20 and 50 nucleotides long) and DNA fragments of 25, 36 and 37 base pairs corresponding to a fragment in the restriction map for the gene corresponding to the hexon protein of Adenovirus 2 and 5. The results were contrasted with similar analyses performed by ion-paired reversed-phase HPLC coupled to on-line electrospray mass spectrometry.
