脆性X综合征的基因诊断与产前诊断

为了探讨简便、快速、准确、价廉的脆性X综合征的诊断方法,对6个智能低下家系进行了细胞遗传学检查,以及PCR直接扩增FMR1 5^'端(CGG)_{n<\sub>重复序列、RT-PCR扩增FMR1基因的cDNA序列的分子遗传学检查。A家系先证者脆性X染色体高表达（35/273）,分子遗传学检查证实为脆性X综合征全突变患者;B家系先证者及其母亲无脆性X染色体表达,分子遗传学检查证实为非脆性X综合征患者;C家系的男性胎儿脆性X染色体表达（5/93）,先证者及其母亲未发现脆性X染色体,分子遗传学检查证实男性胎儿为脆性X综合征全突变患者,其母亲为前突变携带者,哥哥为嵌合体患者;D家系先证者脆性X染色体高表达17%,其姐姐脆性X染色体5%,分子遗传学检查证实先证者为脆性X综合征全突变患者,其姐姐为嵌合体患者;E家系先证者及其母亲,F家系先证者发现可疑脆性X染色体,分子遗传学检查证实为非脆性X综合征家系。结论： PCR直接扩增FMR1基因(CGG)n<\sub>重复序列联合RT-PCR扩增FMR1基因cDNA 序列简便、快速、价廉。可用于脆性X综合征的筛查、诊断及产前诊断,有推广应用价值。}     

Activation of calcium-sensing receptor increases TRPC3 expression in rat cardiomyocytes

Tumor protein p53-induced nuclear protein 1 (TP53INP1) is a well known stress-induced protein that plays a role in both cell cycle arrest and p53-mediated apoptosis. Loss of TP53INP1 expression has been reported in human melanoma, breast carcinoma, and gastric cancer. However, TP53INP1 expression and its regulatory mechanism in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remain unclear. Our findings are in agreement with previous reports in that the expression of TP53INP1 was downregulated in 28% (10/36 cases) of ESCC lesions, and this was accompanied by significant promoter methylation. Overexpression of TP53INP1 induced G1 cell cycle arrest and increased apoptosis in ESCC cell lines (EC-1, EC-109, EC-9706). Furthermore, our study showed that the oncoprotein c-Myc bound to the core promoter of TP53INP1 and recruited DNA methyltransferase 3A to methylate the local promoter region, leading to the inhibition of TP53INP1 expression. Our findings revealed that TP53INP1 is a tumor suppressor in ESCC and that c-Myc-mediated DNA methylation-associated silencing of TP53INP1 contributed to the pathogenesis of human ESCC.

高脂高糖高胆固醇饮食对小型猪肾脏细胞外基质表达的影响

为研究高脂高糖高胆固醇(HFSCD)诱导的2型糖尿病小型猪肾脏细胞外基质(ECM)的表达情况,将10头广西巴马小型猪分别喂正常和HFSCD饲料,收集血、尿液,测定其生化指标,进行口服葡萄糖耐量试验。5个月后取部分肾组织,行H.E和Masson染色,免疫组织化学方法检测ECM相关蛋白的表达。结果表明,喂养HFSCD后,小型猪血糖、血脂和胰岛素明显升高,出现胰岛素抵抗和β细胞功能紊乱;尿糖和微量白蛋白升高;肾脏纤维连接蛋白(FN)和Ⅳ型胶原的表达明显增加,而Ⅰ型胶原无表达。这说明HFSCD喂养广西巴马小型猪5个月能成功建立早期糖尿病肾病模型,促进FN和Ⅳ型胶原的表达。
