智力低下患者的手纹分析

本文对安徽合肥和芜湖地区284例（男145人,女139人）2－59岁智力低下患者的手纹进行了分析。结果表明：患者的皮纹参数与正常对照组有明显的统计学差异,其中尺箕、箕／箕组合、帐弓、皮纹密度、atd角、t距比、掌褶通贯型、悉尼型、过渡Ⅰ型和小指短小类型等项参数均高于对照组（P＜0.01);而简斗、斗／斗组合、a-dRC、t-dRC低于对照组（P＜0.01),a-bRC亦低于对照组（P＜0.05)。这些皮纹参数可以作为智力低下患者的辅助诊断指标。     

Cloning and characterization of a mouse liver-specific gene mfrep-1, upregulated in liver regeneration

Human fibrinogen-related protein-1/liver fibrinogen-related protein-1 (HFREP-1/LFIRE-1), a liver-specificprotein, is a member of fibrinogen superfamily that exerts various biological activities. However, the func-tion of HFREP-1/LFIRE-1 in liver remains unknown. Here we isolated its mouse ortholog gene-mousefibrinogen-related protein-1 (mfrep-1), which encoded 314 amino acids, exhibiting 80.4% similarity toHFREP-1/LFIRE-1. Northern blot analysis revealed that 1.2-kb mfrep-1 mRNA was detected selectivelyin mouse liver. To explore the function of MFREP-1, we examined the levels of mfrep-1 mRNA duringregeneration after 70% partial hepatectomy (PHx) in mice. mfrep-1 mRNA increased in the regeneratingliver and reached the first shoulder peak at 2-4 h after PHx. Cycloheximide pretreatment could suppress theinduction of mfrep-1, indicating the up-regulation of this gene need de novo protein synthesis. Its mRNAcontinued to elevate at 6 h thereafter and reached the second peak at 24 h. The enhanced expression ofmfrep-1 maintained high until 72 h and then declined slowly to the basal level. Immunohistochemistryassessment confirmed the up-regulated expression of MFREP-1 protein in parenchymal cells during liverregeneration. These data suggested that MFREP-1 might play an important role in liver regeneration andbe involved in the regulation of cell growth.     

葡萄幼苗高温锻炼过程中与水杨酸相关的信号转导的初步研究

对无性繁殖的‘京秀’葡萄（Vitis vinifera cv.Jingxiu）幼苗高温锻炼12 h或外施水杨酸（SA）后12 h发现,两种处理引起葡萄内源ABA含量的变化趋势相似,即在处理后1 h急剧升高,然后又迅速下降,并保持这种低水平到处理结束, 而脂氧合酶（LOX）活性并没有表现出和ABA相似的变化趋势。高温锻炼期间,葡萄叶片内自由态SA含量与ABA变化趋势相似,表现出一种典型的化学信号分子特征。而SA合成的限速酶苯丙氨酸解氨酶（PAL）也表现出和前两者相似的变化趋势。推测SA单独或通过ABA诱导葡萄抗热性。

上转换纳米材料在生物应用中的研究进展

上转换发光纳米材料(UCNPs)具有荧光寿命长、潜在生物毒性低、穿透深度大、对生物组织损伤小且几乎没有背景光等显著优点,近年来,在光动力治疗(PDT)、生物成像及生物检测等领域已经得到广泛应用.但在应用的过程中存在一些缺陷,如在PDT中UCNPs与光敏剂之间能量转移效率较低、正常组织过热;在生物成像中,荧光强度较弱、光敏剂和激活剂有能量回流、成像模式单一等问题.科研人员针对上述问题研究出了很多解决的方法,如缩短UCNPs与目标物之间的距离、改变照射激光的强度、改变UCNPs的结构、将UCNPs作为新型多功能平台整合成像与治疗于一体等,使部分问题得到了很好的解决.本文重点综述了UCNPs应用在PDT和生物成像中所出现的问题及解决方法,并对UCNPs在生物医学领域的应用发展趋势进行展望.     

来源于Rhinocladiella mackenziei的玉米赤霉烯酮水解酶的表达纯化与酶学性质

【背景】玉米赤霉烯酮(Zearalenone,ZEN)是污染最广泛的霉菌毒素之一,对饲料行业和畜牧业造成了巨大的经济损失。目前研究最为广泛的玉米赤霉烯酮降解酶ZHD101因其热稳定性较差,无法满足工业应用上的要求。【目的】为实现玉米赤霉烯酮降解酶在工业上的应用,寻找酶学性质更突出的ZEN降解酶。【方法】基于对Gen Bank数据库的挖掘,发现一个来源于麦氏喙枝孢霉(Rhinocladiella mackenziei CBS 650.93)的Rmzhd基因,构建p ET-46-Rmzhd质粒。利用大肠杆菌表达体系和亲和层析、离子交换纯化体系对蛋白进行表达和纯化,通过高效液相凝胶色谱分析酶学性质。【结果】发现一个新的ZEN水解酶Rm ZHD,RmZHD在pH 8.6和45°C条件下的活性最高,而且具有较高的耐热性。结构分析表明,较高的盐桥数目和溶剂暴露脯氨酸含量可能是造成其高耐热性的原因。【结论】本研究为促进玉米赤霉烯酮降解酶在工业上的应用打下基础。     

Restoration of CD3+CD56+ cell level improves skin lesions in severe psoriasis: A pilot clinical study of adoptive immunotherapy for patients with psoriasis using autologous cytokine-induced killer cells

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder mediated by the cells and molecules of both the innate and adaptive immune systems. Autologous cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cell infusion is considered an effective and safe cancer treatment and is licensed for this use in China. Accumulated evidence indicating that CD3⁺CD56⁺ cells are significantly decreased in psoriatic patients prompted us to investigate if the restoration of CD3⁺CD56⁺ cells may be beneficial for psoriatic patients. We designed a clinical trial for psoriasis treatment that involved CIK cell infusion because CIK cells include a large amount of CD3⁺CD56⁺ T cells (NCT01894373 at www.clinicaltrials.gov). Six patients with severe psoriasis were initially enrolled, and four of them exhibited markedly lower levels of CD3⁺CD56⁺ cells in their peripheral blood (PB) relative to healthy donors. CIK cell infusion-associated toxicity was not observed in any infusion. The percentage of CD3⁺CD56⁺ cells in the PB markedly increased and the psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) synchronously decreased in four patients with lower CD3⁺CD56⁺ cell contents, and two of them obtained a more than 4-month PASI75 after completing a four-cycle treatment. However, a decrease in the CD3⁺CD56⁺ cells was observed concomitantly with disease recurrence after short-term amelioration. In contrast, no obvious improvement was observed in the two patients with nearly normal CD3⁺CD56⁺ cells in the PB before treatment. These observations suggest that the normalization of the CD3⁺CD56⁺ cell level may improve the skin lesions of severe psoriasis and warrant further clinical trials for severe psoriasis using repeated CIK adoptive immunotherapy.     

兔脊髓α受体对血量扩张引起肾交感神经活动抑制和促钠排泄的作用

在窦主动脉去神经麻醉兔观察阻断脊髓α受体对血量扩张引起肾交感神经活动（RSNA）抑制和促钠排泄反应的影响。兔脊髓蛛网膜下腔注射a肾上腺素能受体阻断剂酚妥拉明与人工脑脊液后,血量扩张引起RSNA抑制分别为（－25．4±5．4）％与（－42．5±5.2）％（P＜0.05）;兔脊髓蛛网膜下腔注射α1受体阻断剂哌唑嗪与人工脑脊液后血量扩张引起RSNA抑制分别为（－29．3±6.1）％与（－42．5±5.2）％（P＜005）。结果表明,阻断脊髓α受体或α1受体均可减弱血量扩张引起RSNA抑制。脊髓注射哌唑嗪后血量扩张引起促钠排泄与利尿反应也显著减弱（P＜005）。
