We report a female infant with partial trisomy 8p (8p11.2-->pter) and deletion of 13q (13q32-->qter). She was born with mild hypotonia, intrauterine growth retardation, microcephaly, micrognathia, large low set ears, pectus excavatum, anteriorly placed anus, and bilateral clinodactyly. Echocardiography showed left ventricular hypertrophy, bicuspid aortic valve, dilatation of the aorta and pulmonary artery, and prolapse of atrio-venticular valve leaflets. Cytogenetic investigation of her sister and her father showed that the altered region resulted from a balanced translocation between the part of the long arm of chromosome 13 and short arm of chromosome 8. In partial trisomy 8p, the clinical picture of the patients comprises hypotonia, structural brain abnormalities, facial anomalies including a large mouth with a thin upper lip, a high arched palate, a broad nasal bridge, an abnormal maxilla or mandible, malformed, low set ears, and orthopedic anomalies. Although patients with proximal deletions of 13q that do not extend into band q32 have mild to moderate mental and growth delays with variable minor anomalies, patients with more distal deletions including at least part of band q32 usually have major malformations such as retinoblastoma, mental-motor growth retardation, malformation of brain and heart, anal atresia, and anomalies of the face and limbs. To our knowledge partial trisomy 8p and partial monosomy of 13q have not been reported previously in the same person. 相似文献

We compared spectrophotometric analysis of the umbilical cords of infants with meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS) or with meconium-stained amniotic fluid (MSAF) and healthy infants. In a prospective study, 15 infants with MAS and 37 infants with MSAF were enrolled. Twenty healthy infants formed a control group. The absorption peak of umbilical cords with meconium was significantly higher in the infants with MAS or MSAF than in controls. Spectrophotometric analysis of the umbilical cords with meconium may be useful to identify developed neonates with MAS or MSAF. 相似文献

Although HER2/PTEN pathway is commonly disrupted in cancer, association of HER2 and PTEN polymorphisms with breast cancer (BC) remains controversial. We investigated the HER2 Ile655 Val and PTEN IVS4 polymorphisms in patients with BC in Turkish population. HER2 Ile655Val (rs 1136201) and PTEN IVS4 (rs 3830675) polymorphisms were determined using polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP) in blood samples of 118 BC patients and 118 age-matched healthy controls. We found that the frequency of the Ile/Val genotype of HER2 Ile655Val gene was significantly higher in BC patients (p < 0.009; OR: 1,983 95 % CI: 1.181—3.328). The presence of ATCTT insertion (+/+) genotype at downstream of exon 4 in intron 4 of PTEN IVS4 gene was also associated with 1.83 fold decreased risk of BC development (p < 0.033; OR: 1.83, 95 % CI: 1.11—3.03). Analysis on clinico-pathological parameters showed neither HER2 Ile655Val nor PTEN IVS4 genotypes were not associated with any of the variables (p > 0.05).In conclusion, our findings suggest that the Ile/Val genotype of HER2 and ATCTT insertion (+/+) genotype of PTEN IVS4 gene may play an important role as genetic markers for breast cancer risk, but both genes genotypes may not be useful for predicting tumor prognosis in Turkish population. 相似文献

Background
Hydroxymethylglutaryl-Coenzyme A Reductase (HMGCR) catalyzes the rate-limiting step of cholesterol biosynthesis. This enzyme is the target of the widely available cholesterol lowering statins. In this population-based case–control study, the frequencies of -911 C>A polymorphism (rs3761740) of the HMGCR gene in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and healthy subjects were investigated and the correlations between the different genotypes and hypercholesterolemia with cardiovascular risk factors were analyzed.Methods
The HMGCR genotypes were determined in 365 patients with CHD and 365 controls by PCR–RFLP assay. Anthropometric measurements were measured in all participants.Results
There was no significant difference in the genotype frequencies of the HMGCR polymorphism between the male subjects of both patient and control groups, however, the HMGCR-CC genotype was found to be more frequent in female patients with CHD than female controls (p = 0.002). The HMGCR-CC genotype showed higher total-cholesterol (TC) and LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels than the CA + AA genotypes in male CHD patients (p = 0.018). Due to this significant sex interaction, a multivariate analysis was conducted on the patient group. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, the HMGCR-CC genotype was significantly associated with age < 55 (OR = 2.837, p = 0.001) and TC ≥ 5.18 mmol/L (OR = 1.970, p = 0.027) in male subjects. However, this association was not observed in female patients (p > 0.05). This analysis confirmed that the HMGCR-CC genotype was associated with elevated TC levels in male CHD patients with age < 55 years.Conclusion
These results suggest that age and sex modify the contribution of the HMGCR-911 polymorphism to fasting serum TC, LDL-C levels and risk of CHD. 相似文献65.
This study used karyological techniques to determine the chromosome numbers and morphology of eight species of Onobrychis L. (O. caput-galli (L.) Lam, O. aequidentata (Sibth. & Sm.) d’ Urv, O. fallax Freyn & Sint. var. fallax, O. lasiostachya Boiss, O. viciifolia Scop., O. oxyodonta Boiss. subsp. armena (Bois. & Huet) Aktoklu, O. hypargyrea Boiss. and O. cappadocica Boiss.). The results of this study determined the chromosome numbers of O. cappadocica as 2n = 16; O. viciifolia as 2n = 28 and the other species as 2n = 14 The karyotypes of species consisted of median-centromeric (m) or submedian-centromeric (sm) chromosomes. However, O. oxyodonta Boiss. subsp. armena (Bois. & Huet) Aktoklu was found to have only the median-centromeric (m) chromosomes. According to the results of the present
study, of the eight Onobrychis taxa, only O. hypargyrea has a pair of satellite chromosomes (sat-chromosome). Furthermore, this study detected karyotype asymmetry. 相似文献

Mucormycosis (Zygomycosis) is a rare, invasive, opportunistic fungal infection of the paranasal sinuses, caused by a fungus
of the order Mucorales. We report a case of rhinoorbital mucormycosis caused by Rhizopus
oryzae in an acute lymphoblastic leukemia patient and review the 79 Mucormycosis cases reported in the last decade from Turkey.
In our case, the diagnosis was made with endoscopic appearance, computerized tomography of the paranasal sinuses, and culture
of the surgical materials. Following aggressive surgical debridement and parenteral amphotericin B therapy, the patient recovered
completely. In Turkish literature, rhinocerebral manifestations were the most common form of the mucormycosis (64 cases),
followed by pulmonary form (6 cases). The most common risk factor was hematologic malignancies (32 cases) and diabetes mellitus
(32 cases), similar to those reported from the rest of the world. The etiologic agents responsible for the review cases were
Rhizopus sp., Mucor spp., Rhizomucor spp., Rhizopus
oryzae, Mucor
circinelloides, and Lichtheimia corymbifera. Although various treatment modalities were used, amphotericin B was the mainstay of therapy. Mortality rate was found to
be 49.4% in review cases. It seems that strong clinical suspicion and early diagnosis, along with aggressive antifungal therapy
and endoscopic sinus surgery, have great importance for better prognosis in mucormycosis. 相似文献

The influence of red blood cell (RBC) aggregation on blood flow in vivo has been under debate since early 1900's, yet a full understanding has still has not been reached. Enhanced RBC aggregation is well known to increase blood viscosity measured in rotational viscometers. However, it has been demonstrated that RBC aggregation may decrease flow resistance in cylindrical tubes, due to the formation of a cell-poor zone near the tube wall which results from the enhanced central accumulation of RBC. There is also extensive discussion regarding the effects of RBC aggregation on in vivo blood flow resistance. Several groups have reported increased microcirculatory flow resistance with enhanced RBC aggregation in experiments that utilized intravital microscopy. Alternatively, whole organ studies revealed that flow resistance may be significantly decreased if RBC aggregation is enhanced. Recently, new techniques have been developed to achieve well-controlled, graded alterations in RBC aggregation without influencing suspending phase properties. Studies using this technique revealed that the effects of RBC aggregation are determined by the degree of aggregation changes, and that this relationship can be explained by different hemodynamic mechanisms. 相似文献

This study aimed to investigate the pH-induced complexation of silk fibroin (SF) and hyaluronic acid (HA). SF-HA complex coacervation was investigated by monitoring turbidity of the SF-HA system under slow acidification. Gravimetric analysis was performed to determine the yield of complex coacervation and viscosity of the system was measured to study the formation of the complexes at different pH values. The influences of total biopolymer concentration and biopolymer weight ratio on complex coacervation were examined during the analyses. Formation of the complexes was evidenced by the minimum viscosity and the maximum turbidity observed in the system. SF-HA complexes were formed within the pH-window of 2.5-3.5 regardless of the total biopolymer concentration or biopolymer ratio. Complex coacervation of SF-HA showed a reversible behavior and coacervation could be handled even in excess amounts of the biopolymers, which pointed out a non-stoichiometric complexation. 相似文献
