Sustained delivery and expression of plasmid DNA based on biodegradable polyester, poly(D,L-lactide-co-4-hydroxy-L-proline).

Gene expression mediated by a non-viral vector usually lasts only a few days. The objective of this study was to synthesize and characterize a non-toxic, polymeric gene carrier, poly(D,L-lactide-co-4-hydroxy-L-proline) (PLHP) for sustained gene delivery. The copolymer was synthesized by ring-opening polymerization of D,L-lactide (DLLA) with N-cbz-4-hydroxy-L-proline (HP) in the presence of stannous octoate (Sn(Oct)(2)). The resulting copolymer was characterized by (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Degradation of PLHP was examined by monitoring the medium pH change and molecular weight (MW) of the remaining polymer. It showed a rapid initial degradation and followed by a slower degradation for about 30 days at 37 degrees C. The cytotoxicity of copolymer was significantly lower than polyethylenimine (PEI) and poly-L-lysine hydrochloride (PLL) by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The plasmid DNA (pDNA)-loaded microspheres based on the copolymer were prepared by a water-oil-water (w/o/w) solvent evaporation emulsion method. The release profile of pDNA from PLHP microspheres showed an initial burst release, and then a slower and continuous release for about 18 days at 37 degrees C. Gene transfer efficiency of PLHP/pDNA delivery system showed a sustained activity (over a week) when compared with PEI and PLL, and can be further improved by the addition of cationic liposomes. The results suggest that PLHP is a promising candidate for long-term gene delivery with good biocompatibility and biodegradability.     

新基因Tctex5在雄鼠生殖细胞中的表达

目的探讨雄鼠生殖细胞中是否有Tctex5基因的表达。方法从三株体外培养的雄鼠生殖细胞CRL-1715、CRL-2053和CRL-2196细胞株中提取总RNA和蛋白，采用RT-PCR和Western blot分别从mRNA和蛋白质水平分析基因产物的表达。结果Tctex5基因在CRL-1715、CRL-2053、CRL-2196三株细胞中都有高表达。结论Tctex5基因作为一个未知功能的基因，在雄鼠生殖细胞中有丰富的表达，可能参与了精子发生的功能调节，作为男性正常生育的。个新的标志物，它可能在精子发生中扮演了一个重要的角色，该基因在雄性生殖细胞中的发现可能会对男性不育的诊断与治疗提供新的途径。     

保留脊柱后方韧带复合体腰椎管扩大术的基础研究与临床应用

目的评价保留脊柱后方韧带复合体腰椎管扩大术临床疗效及生物力学特征。方法取8个新鲜腰骶椎标本，根据处理方法，分为3组。A组：8个完整腰骶椎标本进行生物力学测定；B组：A组测试后，切除L3-5 3个全椎板，保留后方韧带复合体，即为保留脊柱后方韧带复合体的腰椎管扩大术（改良术式）；C组：B组测试后，将保留的韧带复合体切除，即为传统术式。3组均行轴向压缩实验、三点弯曲实验及扭转实验。2000年6月-2006年6月，收治309例腰椎管狭窄症患者，行保留脊柱后方韧带复合体腰椎管扩大术。其中男152例，女157例；年龄20～80岁，平均57．2岁。病程3个月～41年。单纯腰椎管狭窄症55例；腰椎管狭窄合并腰椎间盘突出症254例，其中合并L4、5椎间盘突出105例，L4～S1椎间盘突出56例，L5、S1椎间盘突出86例，L2、3高位腰椎间盘突出7例。术后采用JOA下腰痛手术疗效评分标准、患者手术满意度及影像学观察进行疗效评定。结果轴向压缩实验：前屈时，A、B组应变、应力、轴向位移均小于C组（P〈0．01）；轴向刚度大于C组（P〈0．01）。后伸时，A、B、C3组间上述指标差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）。三点弯曲实验：在相同弯矩下，挠度、倾角、弯曲刚度A、C组及B、C组比较，差异均有统计学意义（P〈0．01），A、B组间差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）。扭转实验：相同扭角条件，B组承载的扭矩大于C组（P〈0．01）；相同扭矩条件，B组扭角小于c组（P〈0．01），B组扭转刚度大于C组（P〈0．01）。临床应用结果：术中神经根牵拉伤7例；术后脑脊液漏5例，伤口感染4例，经处理后痊愈。309例均获随访，随访时间1～7年。根据JOA下腰痛评分标准，JOA评分平均改善率为86．0％；其中优163例，良112例，可34例，优良率89％。X线片未见椎体不稳。患者手术满意度为87％。结论保留脊柱后方韧带复合体腰椎管扩大术有利于保持脊柱的力学稳定性，疗效佳。     

Exogenous advanced glycosylation end products induce diabetes-like vascular dysfunction in normal rats: a factor in diabetic retinopathy

BACKGROUND. Diabetic retinopathy has been shown to be directly associated with the degree and duration of hyperglycemia, and advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs) have been implicated in this pathological process. The purpose of the experiments reported here was to study the effect of AGE deposition on retinal vascular damage which leads to diabetic retinopathy. METHODS. Intravenous injection of exogenous AGEs was used to treat wild-type non-diabetic Sprague-Dawley rats. One of the two retinal slides from each animal was treated using immunohistochemical staining to label retinal vascular AGE deposition, the other H&E staining for counting of capillary pericytes. The results were compared with the findings in untreated wild-type and diabetic controls and in rats treated with unmodified rat serum albumin (RSA). RESULTS. After 2 weeks of continuous treatment, AGEs were identified in the retinal vascular tissue of the AGE-RSA-injected group. The average number of retinal capillary pericytes per 10x100 microscope power field was 4.313+/-0.34 (mean +/- SD) in the AGE-RSA-injected group, compared with 5.798+/-0.481 in the control group ( P<0.01). CONCLUSION. These experiments demonstrate that AGEs, independent of other metabolic factors, can induce vascular change resembling that of diabetic retinopathy.
