Hypospadias is a congenital anomaly characterized by a ventrally placed urethral meatus in a more proximal position on the midline than its normal position in the glanular part of the penis. In 1961, C. E. Horton and C. J. Devine, Jr., developed single-stage modern surgical techniques, namely, local skin flaps and free skin grafts, for urethra reconstruction in hypospadias repair, which may be applied to almost any case with different localizations of the meatus. Later, two new methods, advancement of the urethra and preputial island flap techniques, were added to the surgical algorithm. Because acceptable results were observed, the authors have insisted on using these four techniques for all hypospadias cases since 1972. Complication rates (mainly fistula formation) were quite high (50 percent) in their early series of adults as a result of erection and hematoma formation. The complication rate of their patient population, which is now mainly composed of preschool children, has decreased to 7 to 8 percent, primarily as a result of careful selection of appropriate techniques for each individual case, the development of better surgical materials and equipment, and taking necessary precautions for postoperative care. A brief summary of modern hypospadias repair techniques is presented in four major classes. The results of the authors' 30-year experience and the precautions necessary to avoid postoperative complications are evaluated. The authors conclude that the four modern techniques and their modifications should be performed meticulously for successful hypospadias repair. 相似文献

Myogenic cell lines have been used widely in the study of myogenic differentiation, muscle regeneration and homeostasis, but, myoblasts and myotubes are difficult to transfect using conventional techniques. We have used liposome-based transfection method to introduce a green fluorescence protein (GFP)-expressing plasmid into Matrigel basement membrane matrix-coated C2C12 mouse myoblast cells. Myoblasts adhered and proliferated more rapidly on a Matrigel; thus, a dramatic increase in transfection efficiency can be obtained compared to Matrigel-untreated cells. Transfection efficiency was determined by counting fluorescent and total cells from six random fields for each condition. This protocol results in efficient (up to 60–70%) transfection of C2C12 myoblasts, high levels of GFP expression and low rate of cell death (10%). This technique is rapid, reliable, uses a lipid-based transfection reagent, and yields high transfection rates in a previously hard-to-transfect cell type. 相似文献

Escherichia coli cyclic AMP Receptor Protein (CRP) undergoes conformational changes with cAMP binding and allosterically promotes CRP to bind specifically to the DNA. In that, the structural and dynamic properties of apo CRP prior to cAMP binding are of interest for the comprehension of the activation mechanism. Here, the dynamics of apo CRP monomer/dimer and holo CRP dimer were studied by Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations and Gaussian Network Model (GNM). The interplay of the inter-domain hinge with the cAMP and DNA binding domains are pre-disposed in the apo state as a conformational switch in the CRP''s allosteric communication mechanism. The hinge at L134-D138 displaying intra- and inter-subunit coupled fluctuations with the cAMP and DNA binding domains leads to the emergence of stronger coupled fluctuations between the two domains and describes an on state. The flexible regions at K52-E58, P154/D155 and I175 maintain the dynamic coupling of the two domains. With a shift in the inter-domain hinge position towards the N terminus, nevertheless, the latter correlations between the domains loosen and become disordered; L134-D138 dynamically interacts only with the cAMP and DNA binding domains of its own subunit, and an off state is assumed. We present a mechanistic view on how the structural dynamic units are hierarchically built for the allosteric functional mechanism; from apo CRP monomer to apo-to-holo CRP dimers. 相似文献

In malaria parasites, the systematic experimental validation of drug and vaccine targets by reverse genetics is constrained by the inefficiency of homologous recombination and by the difficulty of manipulating adenine and thymine (A+T)-rich DNA of most Plasmodium species in Escherichia coli. We overcame these roadblocks by creating a high-integrity library of Plasmodium berghei genomic DNA (>77% A+T content) in a bacteriophage N15-based vector that can be modified efficiently using the lambda Red method of recombineering. We built a pipeline for generating P. berghei genetic modification vectors at genome scale in serial liquid cultures on 96-well plates. Vectors have long homology arms, which increase recombination frequency up to tenfold over conventional designs. The feasibility of efficient genetic modification at scale will stimulate collaborative, genome-wide knockout and tagging programs for P. berghei. 相似文献

Lysinuric protein intolerance is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by defective transport of the cationic amino acids lysine, arginine and ornithine in the epithelial cells of the basolateral membrane in the small intestine and renal tubules. Mutations in the solute carrier family 7, member 7, SLC7A7, gene cause this multisystemic disease with a variety of clinical symptoms such as hepatosplenomegaly, osteoporosis, hypotonia, developmental delay, pulmonary insufficiency or end-stage renal disease. In the present study, genomic structure of SLC7A7 in six Turkish patients with lysinuric protein intolerance was examined in order to detect disease causing mutations by denaturing high pressure liquid chromatography and direct sequencing. Four novel mutations were identified in SLC7A7: c.223insGTC, p.Val74_Ile75insVal; c.283insTGG, p.Glu94_Thr95insTrp; c.344_347delTTGC, p.Leu115LeufsX53; and c.1099insT, p.Ile367TyrfsX16. Clinical and biochemical findings were evaluated together with these molecular analyses. 相似文献
