Floral development of Kingdonia (Ranunculaceae s. l., Ranunculales)

The flower of Kingdonia has a terminal position, thus the rhizome is sympodial. The floral organs initiate in spiral phyllotaxis. The androecium is centripetal in initiation but the sterile stamens are retarded in development compared with the fertile ones. The apex of the young carpel does not participate in the conduplication. The floral organs have single vascular traces and unilacunar nodes.The study was supported by the National Nature Science Foundation of China (No. 30370095 and 30130030).     

Mechanism of regulating the expression of λN gene by ribosomal protein at translational level

In ribosomal protein S12 mutant or L24 mutant the expression of λN gene was depressed at translational level. To study its mechanism the λN gene region of λN -lacZ gene fusion was trimmed from its 5′ end to 3′ end with DNA exonuclease III (DNA cxoIII) in order to alter the TIR (translational initiation region) and the ding region of λN gene. After DNA sequencing 23 species of different λN-lacZ fused genes were obtained. The β-galactosidase activities of these deletants in ribosomal protein mutant were compared with that in wild type strain. The result indicated that (i) S12 mutant could affect 305 subunit’s binding to the TIR of λN gene messenger and cause the difficulty in forming 30s initiation complex and then decrease the efficiency of translational initiation; (ii) in S12 mutant the coding region of λN gene alw affected the expression λN gene; (iii) in L24 mutant the inhibition of λN gene expression was not related to translational initiation and the 5′ end of the coding region of λN gene, but related to the 3′ end of λN gene.

细胞内铜/锌超氧化物歧化酶在人胸主动脉夹层的表达研究

目的:探讨细胞内铜/锌超氧化物岐化酶(copper zinc superoxide dismutase,Cu/Zn-SOD,SOD-1)在人胸主动脉夹层(humanthoracic aortic dissection,hTAD)中的表达情况及其在hTAD中的可能作用。方法:蛋白质印迹法(Western blot,WB)检测SOD-1在TAD和正常人胸主动脉(NA)中膜组织中的表达情况,免疫组织化学染色(immunohistochemistry,IHC)验证SOD-1在动脉壁中的表达和定位。结果:蛋白质印迹和免疫组化染色均显示SOD-1在TAD组表达量较NA组减低(P<0.05);免疫组化染色进一步显示,SOD-1主要位于主动脉壁中膜平滑肌细胞的胞质内,其在夹层主动脉壁中膜撕开处表达缺失。结论:SOD-1在TAD中表达量减少,可能由于参与氧化应激引起的脂质过氧化和炎症反应,以及细胞外基质(extracellular matrix,ECM)的降解等机制所致。     

α-平滑肌肌动蛋白在人胸主动脉夹层中的表达

目的:探讨胸主动脉壁中α-平滑肌肌动蛋白(α-SMA)的表达与胸主动脉夹层(TAD)的关系。方法:采集人TAD的动脉壁组织和正常人胸主动脉壁组织,采用Western Blotting和免疫组织化学方法检测α-SMA在组织中的表达程度。结果:在DA组中,α-SMA的表达明显减少,血管平滑肌细胞(VSMC)以增殖表型为主。结论α-SMA的减少主要发生在血管中膜层的VSMC中,细胞发生表型变化,导致中膜弹性变差,发生夹层病变。因此,α-SMA可能在TAD的发病中具有重要作用,值得进一步深入探讨。     

预防人工关节置换术后下肢深静脉血栓形成的护理对策

目的:探讨预防关节置换术后下肢深静脉血栓形成的有效护理对策.方法:针对下肢深静脉血栓形成的高危因素,对行人工关节置换的患者行预防性药物,物理预防以及系统性功能锻炼.结果:181例术后患者中有41例发生静脉血栓,发生率为22.2%.治疗后均痊愈出院.结论:细致的护理和有效的措施是预防下肢静脉血栓的关键,积极的治疗和护理可避免深静脉血栓的形成后的严重的并发症.     

Differences in Variation of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Sequences from Henan and Shanghai Regions of China

Illegally paid blood donation was a risk factor for HIV acquisition exclusively in Henan and Hubei Provinces of China,and not in Shanghai.Nucleotide sequences in the gag and env genes of HIV-1 were compared between isolates from Henan and Shanghai regions of China to test whether an expected higher degree of a common source of infections from this unique blood donation transmission risk would be evident as decreased variation among Henan isolates in an exploratory cross-sectional analysis.Among 38 isolates studied,23 of 23(100%)from Henan and 8 of 15(54%)from Shanghai were subtype B.In addition,fewer sequence differences were found in gp41 of subtype B isolates from Henan than from Shanghai isolates.Further studies with additional controls are therefore warranted to confirm the role of the degree of a common source of infections in differences in HIV variation across populations.
