Functional study of the different haplotypes cDNA in the coding region of CⅡTA gene

Objective To study the function of 4 different haplotypes cDNA which are constructed by two non-homonymy single nueleotide polymorphism (SNP) sites C19170G (Leu45Val) and C30799G (Ala500Gly) in the coding region of human CⅡTA gene. Methods HeLa cells were transfeeted with eu-karyotic expression vectors containing four different haplotypes cDNA. C Ⅱ TA mRNA and HLA classⅡanti-gen (HLA-DR, DP, DQ) were respectively detected by RT-PCR and indirect cell immunofluoreseence tech-nique in the untransfected and transfeeted with four eukaryotic expression vectors and empty vectors HeLa cells. The quantity of HLA classⅡ antigen were analyzed by flow eytometry. Results No expression of CⅡTA mRNA and HLA class Ⅱ antigen were observed on original HeLa cells and empty vector transfected cells. CⅡTA mRNA expression was emerged, and the expression of HLA class Ⅱ antigen were observed in the HeLa cells transfected with eukaryotic expression vectors containing four different haplotypes cDNA. And there were not significantly different with the levels of HLA class Ⅱ antigen expression among HeLa cells transfected with eukaryotic expression vectors containing four different haplotypes cDNA ( P > 0.05 ). Con-dusion The SNP of Chinese at the sites C19170G(Leu45Val) and C30799G(Ala500Gly) in the coding site of C Ⅱ TA gene did not influence capability of CⅡTA trans-aetivating HLA class Ⅱgene expression.

Early effects of cis-dichlorodiammine platinum (II) on tumor progression and programmed death of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells

We studied the effects of cis-dichlorodiammine platinum (II) on different pathways of cell death in cultured Ehrlich ascites carcinoma in vitro and on subsequent growth of transplanted tumor in vivo. One-hour incubation with the cytostatic modulated apoptosis in cell culture. However, exposure of cell culture to a minimal effective concentration of cis-platinum(II)diammine dichloride promoted the growth of transplanted tumor.

Analysis of polyadenylated RNA from human heart mitochondria

Summary The content of the mitochondrial poly(A)-RNA fraction of human heart has been analyzed by electrophoresis through agarose slab gels in the presence of methyl mercury hydroxide and staining with ethidium bromide. It is possible to identify all the heavy strand coded mRNAs in the electrophoretic pattern. This pattern is qualitatively similar to that obtained from the mitochondria of cells cultured in vitro (HeLa cells), although differences in the relative amount of some components have been detected.     

TWO CASES OF ACQUIRED TOXOPLASMIC LYMPHADENITIS. Light and Electron Microscopic and Immunohistochemical Studies

We report two cases of acquired toxoplasmic lymphadenitis, one with toxoplasmic cysts and the organisms of Toxoplasma gondii and the other with the organisms only. These cysts and organisms were observed in paraffin-embedded sections, touch smears and ultrathin sections for electron microscopy. Touch smears were especially valuable for the quick and accurate diagnosis of toxoplasmic lymphadenitis. We also studied immature sinus histiocytosis (ISH) in these cases. The predominant cells of ISH were confirmed to be B lymphocytes immunohistochemically, the majority being positive for polyclonal surface IgM. ISH was observed in the perifollicular and paracortical areas surrounding post-capillary venules (PCV), whereas the sinuses were only partially involved.     

Characterization of a nuclear localization signal in the C-terminus of the adeno-associated virus Rep68/78 proteins

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) replicates in the nucleus of infected cells, and therefore multiple nuclear import events are required for productive infection. We analyzed nuclear import of the viral Rep proteins and characterized a nuclear localization signal (NLS) in the C-terminus. We demonstrate that basic residues in this region constitute an NLS that is transferable and mediates interaction with the nuclear import receptor importin alpha in vitro. Mutant Rep proteins are predominantly cytoplasmic and are severely compromised for interactions with importin alpha, but retain their enzymatic functions in vitro. Interestingly, mutations of the NLS had significantly less effect on importin alpha interaction and replication in the context of Rep78 than when incorporated into the Rep68 protein. Together, our results demonstrate that a bipartite NLS exists in the shared part of Rep68 and Rep78, and suggest that an alternate entry mechanism may also contribute to nuclear localization of the Rep78 protein.
