目的分析不同屈光组模糊阈值之间的差异,探讨模糊阈值在近视发生发展中的可能作用机制。方法38名志愿者参加本实验,正视组15位,等效球镜度为0.50～-0.50D;近视组23位,其中稳定性近视组17位,屈光不正平均为(-4.76±1.40)D,进展性近视组6位,屈光不正平均为(-3.33±1.43)D。受试者在屈光全矫基础上,采用JND标准测量模糊阈值。结果正视组模糊阈值为(0.21±0.06)D,稳定性近视组为(0.27±0.05)D,进展性近视组为(0.33±0.06)D。近视组的模糊阈值高于正视组(P=0.001),近视组中,进展性近视组的模糊阈值高于稳定性近视组(P=0.028)。结论近视对模糊的敏感度下降,其中进展性近视的敏感度下降更显著,这可能是近视调节滞后增加的部分原因。

Expression of human immunodeficiency virus type 1gag gene using genetically engineered herpes simplex virus type 1 recombinants

Infectious herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) recombinants were constructed by inserting the cDNA sequence of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)gag gene (from nucleotide position 675 [SacI] to 3859 [Asp 718] of the cDNA sequences of HIV-1 strain BH-10) within the DNA sequences of theBamHI DNA fragment B of the genome of an apathogenic HSV-1 strain HFEM. This HSV-1 strain possesses a 4.1-kbp deletion within theBamHI DNA fragment B between 0.762 and 0.789 map units of the viral genome, which allows the insertion of at least 4 kbp of foreign genetic material into this particular region. The DNA sequences of the immediate early promoter (IE4) of HSV-1 that were inserted upstream from thegag gene were used as a promoter. The screening of 205 virus stocks derived from individual plaques revealed that 46 recombinant viruses harbor HIV-1gag-specific DNA sequences. However, it was found that only six of the recombinant viruses are able to express thegag gene product of HIV-1. This indicates that the ratio of the positive recombination events is about 2.9%.     

Polysialic acid, a unique glycan that is developmentally regulated by two polysialyltransferases, PST and STX, in the central nervous system: From biosynthesis to function

Polysialic acid is a developmentally regulated carbohydrate composed of a linear homopolymer of a-2,a-linked sialic acid residues. This unique glycan is mainly attached to the neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM) and implicated in many morphogenic events of the neural cells by modulating the adhesive property of N-CAM. Recently, the cDNA that encodes polysialyltransferase, which is responsible for the polysialylation of N-CAM, was successfully cloned from three mammalian species. This review focuses on the molecular cloning of human polysialyltransferase, designated PST. it then describes the number of enzymes actually required for the polysialylation of N-CAM using an in vitro polysialyltransferase assay. Comparisons between PST and another polysialyltransferase, sialyltransferase X (STX), are made and it Is demonstrated that both enzymes can independently form polysiatic acid In vitro , but that during neural development they coordinately but distinctly synthesize polysialic acid on N-CAM. The role of polysialic acid in the central nervous system is also discussed. Finally, evidence that the two polysialyltransferases, PST and STX, apparently have distinct roles in the development of neural cells is provided by using a neurite outgrowth assay.     

Comparison of protein tyrosine phosphorylation and morphological changes induced by IL-2 and IL-3.

We constructed cell lines which can proliferate in response to IL-2 or IL-3 by introducing a wild-type and mutant forms of cDNAs encoding the human IL-2R p75 chain into an IL-3 dependent hematopoietic cell line which expresses the p55 chain of the IL-2R. We compared early events that were induced in these cells by IL-2 and IL-3. Analysis of protein tyrosine phosphorylation showed that two common protein bands, pp95 and pp90, were phosphorylated by stimulation of either IL-2 or IL-3, suggesting the possible sharing of part of a signal transduction pathway between IL-2R and IL-3R. Comparison of protein tyrosine phosphorylation profiles induced by IL-2 and IL-3 among a variety of cell lines revealed that the pp90 band is the common tyrosine phosphorylation substrate in the cell lines examined, although the general tyrosine phosphorylation pattern differed in each cell line. Mutant p75 molecules incapable of inducing tyrosine phosphorylation could bind and internalize IL-2, but could not support cell growth. We also found that swift changes of cytoskeletal protein organization are one of the early events caused by signal transduction through either IL-2R and IL-3R. Reorganization of cytoskeletal proteins seems to be associated with protein phosphorylation, as a significant portion of pp90 was found in a detergent-soluble fraction in IL-2 or IL-3 treated cells.
