溴氰菊酯对白纹伊蚊（Aedesalbopictus）C6／36细胞株的细胞遗传学效应

本研究选择１０μｇ／ｍｌ、２０μｇ／ｍｌ、４０μｇ／ｍｌ浓度的溴氰菊酯处理白纹伊蚊Ｃ６／３６细胞，以ＭＭＣ作为阳性对照物，观察溴氰菊酯处理２４ｈ后对Ｃ６／３６细胞染色体畸变率和姐妹染色单体互换（ＳＣＥ）频率的影响。结果显示，三个浓度的溴氰菊酯对Ｃ６／３６细胞染色体畸变率均没有显著影响（Ｐ＜０．０５）；溴氰菊酯浓度在４０μｇ／ｍｌ时可诱导Ｃ６／３６细胞ＳＣＥ频率轻度增高（Ｐ＞０．０５），而溴氰菊酯浓度在１０μｇ／ｍｌ、２０μｇ／ｍｌ时，对Ｃ６／３６细胞ＳＣＥ频率没有诱导作用。表明溴氰菊酯对Ｃ６／３６细胞的遗传学效应较弱     

Haemophilia A and haemophilia B: molecular insights

This review focuses on selected areas that should interest both the scientist and the clinician alike: polymorphisms within the factor VIII and factor IX genes, their linkage, and their ethnic variation; a general assessment of mutations within both genes and a detailed inspection of the molecular pathology of certain mutations to illustrate the diverse cause–effect relations that exist; a summary of current knowledge on molecular aspects of inhibitor production; and an introduction to the new areas of factor VIII and factor IX catabolism. An appendix defining various terms encountered in the molecular genetics of the haemophilias is included, together with an appendix providing accession numbers and locus identification links for accessing gene and sequence information in the international nucleic acid databases.     

A HIGH FREQUENCY OF INHERITED DEFICIENCY OF COMPLEMENT COMPONENT C4 IN DARWIN ABORIGINES

Abstract A high frequency of serum complement component C4A deficiency may explain the higher prevalence and greater severity of systemic lupus erythematosus reported in Australian Aborigines. Inherited deficiencies of serum complement components C4A, C4B, and C2 were examined in two Australian Aboriginal populations from Darwin and Alice Springs and compared with the prevalence of complement deficiencies in white Australian blood donors. The frequency of C4A deficiency alleles was 29% in Darwin Aborigines compared with 12% in Alice Springs and 17% in Canberra blood donors. Partial C4B deficiency was also higher in Darwin Aborigines than in the other populations. Inherited deficiency of serum complement component C2 was not observed.

肝细胞癌SCT表现和相关基因表达的初步研究

目的　探讨肝细胞癌细胞中nm2 3 H1基因和C erbB 2基因的表达和其与SCT表现的关系。方法　对 3 6例经手术病理证实且行螺旋CT动、静脉双期增强扫描的肝细胞癌病例 ,观察其SCT表现特征 ,如包膜、子灶、门静脉癌栓、肝门淋巴结转移、肿瘤的大小和强化特征。用免疫组织化学的方法检测癌组织中nm2 3 H1基因和C erbB 2基因的表达情况。结果　肝细胞癌细胞中 ,nm2 3 H1阳性 2 1例 ,阳性率为 5 8.3 % ,转移高危组 (子灶、门脉癌栓、肝门淋巴结转移 )nm2 3 H1基因的表达低于转移低危组 (P <0 .0 5 ) ;C erbB 2基因阳性 2 2例 ,阳性率为 71.1% ,C erbB 2基因的表达在中等大小肝癌组表达高于小肝癌组和大肝癌组 (P <0 .0 5 )。结论　肝细胞癌的SCT表现与nm2 3 H1和C erbB 2基因的表达有一定关系     

PTEN基因蛋白在胆囊癌组织中表达的研究

目的 :探讨抑癌基因PTEN蛋白在胆囊癌组织中的表达情况及其临床病理意义。方法 :应用免疫组化对 2 8例胆囊腺癌 ,4例胆囊鳞癌及其相应癌旁组织中PTEN蛋白进行检测 ,并结合患者的临床病理资料进行分析。结果 :PTEN蛋白在 32例癌旁组织中全都呈阳性表达 ,而癌组织中PTEN阳性表达率仅 34.4 %。胆囊癌组织中PTEN蛋白阳性表达与患者性别、年龄及组织类型无明显相关性 ,但与组织分化程度明显相关。结论 :PTEN蛋白在胆囊癌组织中阳性表达率较低 ,说明该基因失活可能在胆囊癌发生发展中起重要作用。PTEN阳性表达对胆囊癌患者的预后有一定意义     

MMP-9和TIMP-1表达失衡与乳腺癌浸润、转移的相关性
