霍奇金淋巴瘤组织中H／RS细胞与其背景细胞的微切割及其IgH基因重排检测

目的 从基因水平探讨霍奇金淋巴瘤(HL)组织中H／RS细胞(Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg cells)是否起源于B细胞、H／RS细胞的克隆性以及与背景淋巴细胞的相互关系。方法 对33例经典霍奇金淋巴瘤(cHL)石蜡刮片组织进行IgH基因重排分析，并对其中6例重排阳性的病例经B细胞特异性激活蛋白(BSAP)免疫标记，将标记阳性的H／RS细胞和背景淋巴细胞进行微切割后进一步行IgH基因重排分析。结果 16例石蜡刮片组织IgH基因重排阳性。对6例经BSAP标记的cHL成功进行了微切割，其中19管H／RS细胞中，有14管出现重排阳性，细胞数目不同的各管阳性率无显著性差异(P=0．290)；12管背景淋巴细胞有2管出现重排阳性，H／RS细胞与背景淋巴细胞的阳性率有显著性差异(P=0．002)。结论 支持H／RS细胞来源于B细胞的理论，认为部分背景淋巴细胞可能具有瘤性增生活性，参与H／RS细胞的前体细胞组成。     

Recapitulation of fast skeletal muscle development in zebrafish by transgenic expression of GFP under the mylz2 promoter.

A 1,934-bp muscle-specific promoter from the zebrafish mylz2 gene was isolated and characterized by transgenic analysis. By using a series of 5' promoter deletions linked to the green fluorescent protein (gfp) reporter gene, transient transgenic analysis indicated that the strength of promoter activity appeared to correlate to the number of muscle cis-elements in the promoter and that a minimal -77-bp region was sufficient for a relatively strong promoter activity in muscle cells. Stable transgenic lines were obtained from several mylz2-gfp constructs. GFP expression in the 1,934-bp promoter transgenic lines mimicked well the expression pattern of endogenous mylz2 mRNA in both somitic muscle and nonsomitic muscles, including fin, eye, jaw, and gill muscles. An identical pattern of GFP expression, although at a much lower level, was observed from a transgenic line with a shorter 871-bp promoter. Our observation indicates that there is no distinct cis-element for activation of mylz2 in different skeletal muscles. Furthermore, RNA encoding a dominant negative form of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A was injected into mylz2-gfp transgenic embryos and GFP expression was significantly reduced due to an expanded slow muscle development at the expense of GFP-expressing fast muscle. The mylz2-gfp transgene was also transferred into two zebrafish mutants, spadetail and chordino, and several novel phenotypes in muscle development in these mutants were discovered.

Results of speech perception and speech production training for three prelingually deaf patients using a multiple-electrode cochlear implant.

Five studies were conducted to measure changes in the perception and production of selected speech targets, with training, in three prelingually deaf patients. The two adults and one adolescent were implanted with the Cochlear (Nucleus) multiple-electrode prosthesis. The studies were perception and production of nasal consonants; perception of syllable-final consonants; perception and production of alveolar consonants; auditory-visual perception of alveolar consonants; and perception and production of vowels. Perceptual data were collected in the audition (implant)-alone condition, except for the auditory-visual perception of alveolar consonants where the audition-alone, vision-alone, and auditory-visual conditions were used. Speech perception data in the audition-alone condition were also collected from four postlingually deaf adult implant patients, without training, to indicate differences between the two classes of patients. The three prelingually deaf patients generally showed some improvements in speech production. In perception, improvements were recorded only for individual patients in some studies. The performance of the adolescent was better than that of the two adults in all cases. The perceptual performance of the postlingually deaf patients was superior to that of the prelingually deaf patients in all cases.     

环氧化酶-2基因启动子甲基化及表达与胃黏膜病变的关系

目的 探讨环氧化酶2(COX-2)基因启动子区甲基化水平和蛋白表达与胃黏膜病变的关系,并对其相关的影响因素进行研究.方法 以1201例患有不同胃黏膜病变的高危人群为研究对象,采用免疫组织化学方法榆测COX-2表达,用亚硫酸氢钠-变性高效液相色谱(DHPLC)对COX-2启动子甲基化率进行定量分析,采用13C尿素呼气实验(13C-UBT)对幽门螺旋杆菌(H priori)感染状况进行测定.结果 COX-2甲基化率中位数随胃黏膜病变的加重逐渐升高,在浅表性胃炎和慢性萎缩性胃炎(SG/CAG)、肠上皮化生(IM)及不确定性异型增生和异璎增生(Ind DYS/DYS)病变中分别为10.6%、11.8%、13.8%,各病变组之间差异有统计学意义(X2=8.312,P=0.016).分层分析显示,在H pylori感染阴性病例中,COX-2甲基化率仍随病变加重明显升高,在SG/CAG、IM、Ind DYS/DYS病变中其中位数分别为8.8%、10.6%、14.1%(X2=6.629,P=0.036).进一步分析发现,COX-2甲基化率随着COX-2表达强度的增强而降低,由COX-2弱阳性表达的13.3%降至强阳性表达的7.6%(X2=10.400,P=0.015).结论 COX-2启动子甲基化水平与胃黏膜病变程度及H pylori感染状况密切相关,并与COX-2表达强度呈负相关,说明COX-2启动子区异常甲基化可能在胃黏膜病变的演变过程中起重要作用.

Point mutation in the parkin gene on patients with Parkinson’s disease

Summary To investigate the distribution of possible novel mutations from parkin gene in variant subset of patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) in China and explore whether parkin gene plays an important role in the pathogenesis of PD, 70 patients were divided into early-onset group and late-onset group; 70 healthy subjects were included as controls. Genomic DNA from 70 normal controls and from those of PD patients were extracted from peripheral blood leukocytes by using standard procedures. Mutations of parkin gene (exon 1–12) in all the subjects were screened by PCR-single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP), and further sequencing was performed in the samples with abnormal SSCP results, in order to confirm the mutation and its location. A new missense mutation Gly284Arg in a patient and 3 abnormal bands in SSCP electrophoresis from samples of another 3 patients were found. All the DNA variants were sourced from the samples of the patients with early-onset PD. It was concluded that Parkin point mutation also partially contributes to the development of early-onset Parkinson’s disease in Chinese.
