1996年延边地区无菌性脑膜脑炎病因病毒的分离及初步鉴定

吉林省延边地区１９９６年６月发生无菌性脑膜脑炎流行,在全地区２１６万人口中,发病人数约５￣６千人,死亡２人,为历史上所罕见。从病人脑脊液和粪便标本中分离到多株病毒,分离率较高（分别达到５２．４％￣６６．７％）。用ＷＨＯ提供的ＲＩＶＭ肠道病毒组合血清进行中和定型,不能确定型别。ＲＴ－ＰＣＲ结果表明为肠道病毒。病人早期血清特异性ＩｇＭ抗性阳性率７２．０％,证明所分离的病毒为此次无菌性脑膜脑炎暴发流行的

Aberrant,ectopic expression of VEGF and VEGF receptors 1 and 2 in malignant colonic epithelial cells. Implications for these cells growth via an autocrine mechanism

Vascular endothelial growth factor A (referred to as VEGF) is implicated in colon cancer growth. Currently, the main accepted mechanism by which VEGF promotes colon cancer growth is via the stimulation of angiogenesis, which was originally postulated by late Judah Folkman. However, the cellular source of VEGF in colon cancer tissue; and, the expression of VEGF and its receptors VEGF-R1 and VEGF-R2 in colon cancer cells are not fully known and are subjects of controversy.     

转红色荧光蛋白基因唐鱼外源基因拷贝数的测定

目的:测定转红色荧光蛋白基因唐鱼的外源基因拷贝数。方法:以杂合F5代和杂合F6代转红色荧光蛋白基因唐鱼为材料,以其外源插入片段(pDsRed-mylz2)与基因组插入位点5′侧翼区之间的边界序列作为特异性内参片段,同时以外源整合的红色荧光表达载体序列(pDsRed-mylz2)作为目的基因,采用实时荧光定量PCR技术测定外源基因整合的拷贝数。结果:运用外源基因与特异内参在同批次实时荧光定量PCR中的初始拷贝数比值,得到杂合F5代和杂合F6代转红色荧光蛋白基因唐鱼中插入的外源红色荧光表达载体序列pDsRed-mylz2的拷贝数均值均为3。结论:转红色荧光蛋白基因唐鱼的外源基因拷贝数为3。     

Assessment of Real-time PCR Based Methods for Quantification of Pollen-mediated Gene Flow from GM to Conventional Maize in a Field Study

Maize is one of the main crops worldwide and an increasing number of genetically modified (GM) maize varieties are cultivated and commercialized in many countries in parallel to conventional crops. Given the labeling rules established e.g. in the European Union and the necessary coexistence between GM and non-GM crops, it is important to determine the extent of pollen dissemination from transgenic maize to other cultivars under field conditions. The most widely used methods for quantitative detection of GMO are based on real-time PCR, which implies the results are expressed in genome percentages (in contrast to seed or grain percentages). Our objective was to assess the accuracy of real-time PCR based assays to accurately quantify the contents of transgenic grains in non-GM fields in comparison with the real cross-fertilization rate as determined by phenotypical analysis. We performed this study in a region where both GM and conventional maize are normally cultivated and used the predominant transgenic maize Mon810 in combination with a conventional maize variety which displays the characteristic of white grains (therefore allowing cross-pollination quantification as percentage of yellow grains). Our results indicated an excellent correlation between real-time PCR results and number of cross-fertilized grains at Mon810 levels of 0.1–10%. In contrast, Mon810 percentage estimated by weight of grains produced less accurate results. Finally, we present and discuss the pattern of pollen-mediated gene flow from GM to conventional maize in an example case under field conditions.

为了快速鉴别饲料中的狐狸、水貂、貉子和狗源性成分,根据线粒体16S r DNA种间保守序列,设计合成针对狐狸、水貂、貉子和狗的特异性引物和探针,通过对荧光PCR反应体系和反应条件的优化筛选,建立了多重实时荧光PCR方法,在同一PCR反应体系中可以同时完成4种动物源性成分检测。通过对15种其他物种的源性成分的检测,结果表明所设计的引物和探针具有很好的物种特异性,且灵敏度高,狐狸、水貂、貉子和狗的DNA检出限为0.01ng。对40份样品检测,其中5份检测出貉子、狐狸和水貂源性成分。结果表明,该方法可以有效地鉴别出饲料中狐狸、水貂、貉子和狗源性成分,同时适用于相关动物产品中。
