荧光偏振检测HBV DNA C区BCP双突变

目的：建立简便、灵敏的HBV DNA序列中BCP双突变点的检测方法．方法：采用终点终止法和偏振光检测技术进行点突变的检测．首先对HBV C区基因进行PCR扩增，然后用特异探针与扩增产物中待测核苷酸的下游序列杂交，使探针的3’端可以在DNA聚合酶的催化下，依据其互补链上的待测核苷酸连接上一个标有特定荧光素的ddNTP，然后检测该3’端带有荧光素的探针，根据检测到的荧光素种类和偏振光的强度可以判定待测点是何种核苷酸．结果：该方法可以检测出HBV基因序列中BCP双突变核苷酸类型以及检测1个拷贝的模板，并且可以从BCP野性株DNA序列中检出5％BCP双突变DNA序列．结论：该技术可以检测血清中HBV DNA C区BCP双突变．     

Perinatal lung development following maternal exposure to methylmercuric chloride

Mercury ingested from dietary sources has potent neurotoxic and teratogenic effects. Initial studies have shown that mercury may also affect fetal lung development. Since these pulmonary effects may play a role in subsequent neonatal morbidity and mortality due to compromising of the development of the lung, mercury effects in fetal and neonatal lung were investigated. Methylmercuric chloride (MMC), 1,000 ppm (15 mg/kg of body weight), was administered via an intragastric tube to timed-pregnant Swiss/Webster mice on day 9 of gestation. Lungs from fetuses on gestational day 18 and from neonates on days 1, 5, or 10 after birth were studied. Significant changes in MMC-exposed lungs compared to controls occurred at postnatal day 1. At this time, lung weight per gram body weight increased, phospholipid content per gram of lung or per microgram of DNA decreased, while DNA per gram of lung increased. Methylmercury appears to have delayed lung maturation. Cuboidal epithelial cells in alveolar tubules contained conspicuous glycogen deposits, and differentiation of alveolar type II cells was adversely affected. These results suggest that prenatal exposure to methylmercury may be detrimental to lung development, specifically to the initiation of surfactant synthesis, by delaying the normal pattern of maturation of the alveolar type II cells within the lungs.

Applications of DNA Flow Cytometry and Fluorescence In situ Hybridization Using a Chromosome-specific DNA Probe on Paraffin-embedded Tissue Sections of Primary Malignant Melanomas

We have applied DNA flow cytometric analysis to paraffin-embedded tissue sections of primary malignant melanomas. Conventionally, flow cytometric analysis of paraffin-embedded tissue sections has been done by the method of Hedley et al. We added ultrasound treatment to the method of Hedley et al. and a lower value of coefficient of variation was shown. Furthermore, a new technique, fluorescence in situ hybridization with a chromosome-specific repetitive DNA probe, was used for the analysis of chromosomal numerical aberrations in the same paraffin-embedded tissue sections. The DNA flow cytometric analysis showed that in 8 cases six primary malignant melanomas were of the aneuploid pattern and two cases of lentigo maligna (melamona in situ) were of the diploid pattern. By fluorescence in situ hybridization, the two cases with the diploid pattern had spots/nucleus of 1.28 and 1.12, and those with the aneuploid pattern had spots/nucleus from 2.01 to 2.27. Only one nodular melanoma in an aneuploid case showed spots/nucleus of 1.71. These data indicate that fluorescence in situ hybridization with chromosome-specific repetitive DNA probes can serve as a cytogenetic tool for the analysis of interphase nuclei of solid human tumors and may be useful for the study of tumor cell heterogeneity.     

用DNAG C含量和DNA同源性测定法鉴定米克戴德军团菌

本文采用热变性温度法和液相复性速率法对—轻型特征及血清学反应相似米克戴德军团菌(Lm)的菌株进行了测定,结果表明该菌与标准Lm(C DC株)的DNA G Cmol％相差3.45％,与标准Lm(C DC株)的DNA同源性达81.99％,根据伯杰细菌鉴定手册(1984),可判定该菌株与标准Lm(C DC株)为遗传型一致的类群,即从遗传学角度证明该菌为Lm。

DNA限制性内切酶分析应用于伴放线放线杆菌的鉴定和分型

本文用限制性内切酶分析(REA)作伴放线放线杆菌(Aa)的鉴定和分型研究,提取Aa染色体DNA,井分别用BamHI、HindⅢ,Sal Ⅰ和Xho Ⅰ消化,作琼脂糖凝胶电泳。结果显示,Aa和嗜沫嗜血杆菌的DNA片段图谱明显不同;分属于两种不同血清型的两株Aa菌株,其DNA片段图谱也明显不同。这表明,REA可用于Aa菌的鉴定和分型,在所用的4种酶中,以Sal Ⅰ和Xho Ⅰ消化的DNA片段图谱差异最明显。     

煤焦沥青烟雾提取物的细胞毒性和遗传毒性研究

采用人外周血淋巴细胞非程序DNA合成(UDS)试验和人胚肺成纤维细胞转化试验,测试了煤焦沥青烟雾提取物(ECTPF)对人体细胞的细胞毒性和遗传毒性。UDS试验结果表明,ECTPF可使淋巴细胞UDS值明显增加,并有剂量一反应关系。引起半数淋巴细胞死亡的浓度(LC50)为33.8μg/ml。细胞转化试验表明,ECTPF能诱发人胚肺成纤维细胞明显的形态学转化,且转化细胞具有部分恶性转化细胞的特性。引起半数人胚肺成纤维细胞生长抑制的浓度为41.3μg/ml。实验结果提示,ECTPF是一种具有细胞毒性和遗传毒性的物质。
