目的：评价自酸蚀粘结剂与树脂加强型玻璃离子联合用于正畸托槽粘结的临床使用效果。方法：随机选择50名患者，采用自身对照的方法进行为期12个月的临床观察。385个托槽用自酸蚀封闭剂（3MESEP）和光固化树脂加强型玻璃离子水门汀（FUJI ORTHO LC）粘结，390个托槽用京津釉质粘结剂粘结。观察托槽脱落的时间和脱落后粘结剂在牙面上的残留量，计算托槽脱落率和粘结材料残留指教。结果：光固化树脂加强型玻璃离子水门汀和自酸蚀封闭剂粘结的托槽脱落率为10．1％；京津釉质粘结剂粘结的托槽脱落率为9．0％，两者差异没有统计学意义（P〉0．05）。两种材料粘结的托槽脱落后，牙釉质上的粘结材料残留指教差异无显著统计学意义（P〉0．05）。结论：自酸蚀封闭剂和树脂加强型玻璃离子所构成的粘结技术粘结正畸托槽的粘结强度，可以满足正畸治疗的需要，在临床上有广阔的应用前景。     

A novel human leucocyte antigen-DRB1 genotyping method based on multiplex primer extension reactions

We have developed and validated a semi-automated fluorescent method of genotyping human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-DRB1 alleles, HLA-DRB1*01-16, by multiplex primer extension reactions. This method is based on the extension of a primer that anneals immediately adjacent to the single-nucleotide polymorphism with fluorescent dideoxynucleotide triphosphates (minisequencing), followed by analysis on an ABI Prism 3700 capillary electrophoresis instrument. The validity of the method was confirmed by genotyping 261 individuals using both this method and polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primer (PCR-SSP) or sequencing and by demonstrating Mendelian inheritance of HLA-DRB1 alleles in families. Our method provides a rapid means of performing high-throughput HLA-DRB1 genotyping using only two PCR reactions followed by four multiplex primer extension reactions and PCR-SSP for some allele groups. In this article, we describe the method and discuss its advantages and limitations.     

HLA-DR、DQ等位基因与精神分裂症相关性的研究

目的 证明HLA-DR、DQ等位基因与精神分裂症的发病密切相关。方法 HLA-DR、DQ等位基因检测：PCR-SSP分型。结果 发现在大连地区随机选择的精神分裂症患者的HLA-DQ8基因的频率(9．0％)明显高于正常对照(2．5％)。精神分裂症患者的HLA-DR、DQ等位基因的某些位点与免疫指标的改变有相关性。结论 ①HLA-DQ8基因与精神分裂症有关联，可以认为HLA-DQ8基因可能是精神分裂症的易感基因。②HLA-DR、DQ等位基因的某些组合可能是精神分裂症发病的危险组合模式，对预测精神分裂症的基因易感性具有潜在的应用价值。③精神分裂症的免疫指标的改变与HLA-DR、DQ等位基因的某些位点有相关性，说明精神分裂症与它的免疫指标的变化可能有内在的联系。     

A novel missense mutation in human lactate dehydrogenase B-subunit gene

Reduced activity of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH; EC 1.1.1.27) was found in a male medical student during practical examinations of his own blood. Serum LDH isoenzyme pattern showed reductions in activities of the isoenzymes with lower subunit A/B ratios such as LDH1 and LDH2. These findings were indicative of a partial LDH-B subunit deficiency, which was confirmed in erythrocyte hemolysates by Western blotting. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based DNA sequence analysis of the LDH-B subunit gene revealed a heterozygous nucleotide change: a guanine to adenine substitution in codon 69 (GGG --> GAG) at the third exon of the LDH-B subunit gene that resulted in a glycine to glutamic acid substitution (G69E). The mutation was confirmed by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis using a mismatched primer to introduce a new NcoI restriction site. The same heterozygous mutation was found in his mother but not in other family members. This mutation involves a residue belonging to alphaC helix in LDH-B subunit protein molecule that functions as an interface for other subunits.

Rapid detection of beta-globin gene (HBB) mutations coupling heteroduplex and primer-extension analysis by DHPLC

Beta-thalassemia is a common inherited disease, resulting from one or more of a total of more than 200 different mutations in the beta-globin gene (HBB). Efficient and reliable mutation-screening methods are essential in order to establish appropriate prevention programs for at-risk populations based upon a molecular diagnosis. We have developed a rapid and highly-specific mutation screening test for the diagnosis of beta-thalassemia by coupling heteroduplex and primer-extension analysis based on the denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) system. A total of 161 healthy heterozygous Taiwanese carriers featuring 10 different HBB mutations and 30 patients exhibiting 12 different compound heterozygous or homozygous HBB mutations were subjected to DHPLC. The elution profile for the heteroduplex analysis of DHPLC could be successfully used to identify the common disease-causing mutations of HBB. To further confirm the sequence variants, we developed a technique combining multiplex primer-extension analysis coupled with DHPLC for the genotyping of eight common disease-causing mutations in the HBB gene. Overall, by coupling heteroduplex and primer-extension analysis based upon DHPLC, we were able to unambiguously identify the most-common beta-thalassemia mutations corresponding to more than 99% of HBB alleles among the Taiwanese population. In conclusion, compared to classic approaches to mutation screening for this malady, we suggest that DHPLC is an excellent technique to be applied to the genetic screening of prenatal and postnatal individuals as a part of a diagnosis program for beta-thalassemia and provides a more-efficient, economic, and sensitive means to undertake such a screening program.     

常州地区首例cisAB血型基因特征分析及家系调查

目的 研究1例ABO亚型及基因特征。 方法 采用试管法对家系3代共7例标本进行ABO血型血清学鉴定;对正反定型不一致的标本运用聚合酶链式反应序列特异性引物(polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primer, PCR-SSP)法基因分型;并对ABO基因第6和7外显子扩增产物进行测序分析。 结果 ABO血型血清学发现7例标本中正反定型不符3例,其中2例红细胞表型为cisAB/A 或ABx,1例为cisAB/O或A2Bx;基因分型为ABO*cisAB01/A101、ABO*cisAB01/O01。ABO基因序列分析:ABO*cisAB01/A101第7外显子发生467C>T、803G>C的特征性突变,ABO*cisAB01/O01第6外显子261位缺失G,第7外显子在467C>T、803G>C存在特征性突变。测序结果均携带有ABO*cisAB01基因。 结论 ABO*cisAB01基因能导致A抗原或者B抗原的弱表达并能稳定遗传,因此应将血型血清学和分子生物学方法相结合才能准确鉴定ABO亚型。
