精神分裂症患者G72基因表达水平的研究

目的 本工作旨在检测精神分裂症（Schizophrenia）患者外周淋巴细胞中G72基因的表达情况，进而探讨G72基因的表达与精神分裂症的相关关系。 方法 工作在56例精神分裂症患者和84名年龄性别相匹配的对照中进行，在新鲜外周血样本中抽提总RNA，反转录成cDNA，基因表达量的检测在ABI Prism7900HT型序列监测系统上进行，采用TaqMan的方法对患者及对照组样本的mRNA进行定量，采集的荧光数据经SDS2.1软件自动处理，每个样本作三次平行检测，取平均值作为该样本的最终定量。数据应用SPSS统计软件进行处理，对组间基因表达水平的差异采用独立样本的T检验，调用本实验室G72基因单核苷酸多态性（SNPs）资料，用单因素方差分析的方法分析SNP与基因表达水平的关联性。结果 1.检测得到G72基因在对照组中的表达量为0.0586±0.0114amol/ng cDNA, 在精神分裂症患者组中的表达量为0.0498±0.0121amol/ng cDNA。2.经显著性检验， G72基因的表达水平在病例和对照组间差异无统计学意义，t=-0.512，df138，P=0.609，95%CI:-4.258~2.506。3.单因素方差分析结果显示，rs947267位置上的SNP与该基因的表达水平无相关，F=0.355，df2，χ2=0.703；而rs2181953位置上的SNP与G72基因表达水平相关联，F=6.275，df2，χ2=0.004。A/A基因型的患者基因表达水平显著高于其他基因型。结论：精神分裂症患者G72基因的表达量总体上较正常人并无显著变化，但rs2181953位置上的基因型会影响精神分裂症患者该基因的表达。

白三烯C_4对大鼠胃粘膜微循环的影响及其在急性胃粘膜损伤中的作用

探讨了静注白三烯C_4(0.1ng·100g~(-1))对胃粘膜微循环的影响及其在急性胃粘膜损伤中的作用。实验由Wistar系雄性大鼠,实验前禁食24hr,饮水不限。发现:1.胃粘膜表层毛细血管口径迅速变细,部分消失,集合细静脉口径亦变细;10分钟时集合细静脉明显淤血和出血。2.氢气清除法证明,胃粘膜血流量明显减少,注后第15分钟时由注前1.230±0.093(M±SE)降至0.521±0.079ml·min~(-1)·100g~(-1)(P<0.01)。3.反射光谱法证明,胃粘膜局部表层微循环血液量(△Er)和Hb氧饱和度(F),均有不同程度下降。4.静注白三烯C_4(0.1ng·100g~(-1))及盐酸灌胃(0.2N1ml)均未见明显胃粘膜损伤,两者并用则损伤明显加重。结果表明,外源性白三烯C_4可引起严重胃粘膜微循环障碍,是诱发溃疡形成的重要因素之一。

心室晚电位的时间－频率表示法的进一步改进

在心室晚电位的研究中，我们引入了信号的时间一频率表示法，并根据晚电位的具体特性用Ｗｉｇｎｅｒ分布法（维格纳分布）把信号表示为在时间及频率空间中的能量分布。由于Ｗｉｇｎｅｒ分布的优异性质使我们有可能更准确表示出心室晚电位的存在。但当输入信号是两个信号的线性叠加时，Ｗｉｇｎｅｒ分布的结果会出现一个交叉项，相当于引入干扰。针对此不足，作者介绍改进方案，消除部分交叉项，收到较好的效果，并给出一些仿真及应用实例。

Antifouling blood purification membrane composed of cellulose acetate and phospholipid polymer

The ideal surface of an artificial blood purification membrane needs hemocompatibility and durability of high performance; it should not adsorb any proteins or cells but should still have high permeability in the desired range of solute size. To improve the anti-fouling property of cellulose acetate (CA) membranes, a CA membrane blended with poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC)-co-n-butyl methacrylate (BMA)) (PMB30) was designed as a blood purification membrane. The polymer solutions for preparing the membrane were prepared using a solvent mixture composed of N, N-dimethylformamide, acetone, 2-propanol or water. The CA and CA/PMB30 blend membranes with an asymmetric and porous structure were prepared by a phase inversion process.The characteristics of the CA/PMB30 blend membrane, such as structural properties, mechanical properties, and solute permeability were examined with attention to changes in the preparation conditions of the membrane. The CA/PMB30 blend membrane had good water and solute permeability and a sharp molecular weight cut-off property. Moreover, the amount of proteins adsorbed on the CA/PMB30 blend membrane surface was less than that of the original CA membrane and a conventional polysulfone membrane. Adhesion and activation of platelets on the CA/PMB30 blend membrane were reduced compared with that on a CA membrane. In addition, the CA/PMB30 blend membrane showed good permselectivity and an antifouling property during a long time ultrafiltration experiment with protein solutions.     

Contribution of the twin arginine translocation system to the virulence of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O157:H7 is a major food-borne infectious pathogen. In order to analyze the contribution of the twin arginine translocation (TAT) system to the virulence of E. coli O157:H7, we deleted the tatABC genes of the O157:H7 EDL933 reference strain. The mutant displayed attenuated toxicity on Vero cells and completely lost motility on soft agar plates. Further analyses revealed that the ΔtatABC mutation impaired the secretion of the Shiga toxin 1 (Stx1) and abolished the synthesis of H7 flagellin, which are two major known virulence factors of enterohemorrhagic E. coli O157:H7. Expression of the EDL933 stxAB₁ genes in E. coli K-12 conferred verotoxicity on this nonpathogenic strain. Remarkably, cytotoxicity assay and immunoblot analysis showed, for the first time, an accumulation of the holotoxin complex in the periplasm of the wild-type strain and that a much smaller amount of StxA₁ and reduced verotoxicity were detected in the ΔtatC mutant cells. Together, these results establish that the TAT system of E. coli O157:H7 is an important virulence determinant of this enterohemorrhagic pathogen.
