泪腺肿瘤中P53蛋白表达的意义

目的了解P53基因在泪腺肿瘤的表达及其临床病理学意义。方法应用免疫组织化学ABC法检测57例泪腺上皮性肿瘤患者和10例正常人泪腺组织中P53蛋白的表达情况，并与病理分级、复发相联系。结果10例正常人泪腺组织中P53表达全部为阴性；恶性肿瘤患者的表达率为48．6％，良性肿瘤中P53达率为18％，二者相比有显著性差异（P＜0．025）；复发患者阳性率为76．9％，明显高于未复发患为31．8％（P＝0．015）。结论P53基因参与了泪腺肿瘤的发生发展并与肿瘤的分化和复发有关。

Sensitive Detection of p53 Gene Mutations in Esophageal Endoscopic Biopsy Specimens by Cell Sorting Combined with Polymerase Chain Reaction Single-strand Conformation Polymorphism Analysis

For the rapid and sensitive detection of p53 gene mutations in esophageal endoscopic biopsy specimens, we combined cell sorting with the polymerase chain reaction and single-strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) analysis. Mutations in exons 5–8 of the p53 gene were investigated by FCR-SSCF analysis using 10³ sorted nuclei obtained from each endoscopic biopsy specimen of 16 patients with esophageal cancer. DNAs extracted from their respective surgical specimens were investigated by a conventional method of PCR-SSCP analysis. Mutations in the biopsy specimens were detected in 6 of the 12 aneuploid tumors but in none of the 4 diploid tumors. After tumor cell enrichment by cell sorting, one mutation in exon 8 became apparent, which could not be detected from the surgical specimen by a conventional method of PCR-SSCP analysis. This method should improve the sensitivity of detecting p53 gene mutations, and provides additional information concerning the DNA ploidy pattern in the tumors.     

Preparation and Characterization of a Murine Monoclonal Antibody (MDR3M) Reactive with mdr3 Gene Product

A murine monoclonal antibody (MDR3M) (isotype: IgM) reactive with mdr3 gene product was generated by immunizing mice with mdr3 -specific peptide (H₂N-¹²WRPTSAEGDFELGISSKQKRKKTKTVKMI⁴¹G-COOH) and hybridizing the primed mouse splenic B cells with X63-Ag8,6.5.3 mouse plasmacytoma cells. MDR3M did not cross-react with mdr1 gene product. This monoclonal antibody may be useful for analyzing the role of mdr3 gene product in cells and tissues.     

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 sub-set of patients with Parkinson’s disease(PD)in China and explore whether parkin gene plays an im-portant role in the pathogenesis of PD,70 patients were divided into early-onset group and late-onsetgroup; 70 healthy subjects were included as controls.Genomic DNA from 70 normal controls andfrom those of PD patients were extracted from peripheral blood leukocytes by using standard proce-dures.Mutations of parkin gene(exon 1—12)in all the subjects were screened by PCR-single strandconformation polymorphism(SSCP),and further sequencing was performed in tue samples with ab-normal SSCP results,in order to confirm the mutation and its location.A new missense mutationGly284Arg in a patient and 3 abnormal bands in SSCP electrophoresis from samples of another 3 pa-tients were found.All the DNA variants were sourced from the samples of the patients with early-on-set PD.It was concluded that Parkin point mutation a

致倦库蚊有机磷抗性相关扩增酯酶B基因的多样性

本实验从佛山和成都两地的致倦库蚊群体中筛选出３个酯酶类型不同的有机磷（ＯＰ）抗性品系，ＦＳ－１、ＦＳ－２和ＣＤ－１品系。各品系的酯酶基因Ｂ扩增水平、酯酶活性和ＯＰ抗性水平三者一致。各品系酯酶Ｂ基因限制性酶切片段比较分析表明，我国的ＯＰ抗生库蚊群体中不仅有世界性分布的酯酶Ｂ１和Ｂ２，而且在佛山和成都地区各有一个新的独立扩增的酯酶Ｂ，分别命名为Ｂ６和Ｂ７。     

Ancient,highly polymorphic human major histocompatibility complex DQA1 intron sequences

A 438 basepair intron 1 sequence adjacent to exon 2 in the human major histocompatibility complex DQA1 gene defined 16 allelic variants in 69 individuals from wide ethnic backgrounds. In contrast, the most variable coding region spanned by the 247 basepair exon 2 defined 11 allelic variants. Our phylogenetic human intron 1 tree derived by the Bootstrap algorithm reflects the same relative allelic relationships as the reported DQA1 exon 2 tree [Gyllensten and Erlich, Hum Immunol 36:1–10, 1989]. Thus 3′ DQA1 intron 1 and exon 2 have cosegregated since divergence of the human races. Comparison of human alleles to a Rhesus monkey DQA1 first intron sequence found only 10 nucleotide substitutions unique to Rhesus, with the other 428 positions (98%) found in at least one human allele. This high degree of homology reflects the evolutionary stability of intron sequences since these two species diverged over 20 million years ago. Because more intron 1 alleles exist than exon 2 alleles, these polymorphic introns can be used to improve tissue typing for transplantation, paternity testing, and forensics and to derive more complete phylogenetic trees. These results suggest that introns represent a previously underutilized polymorphic resource. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
