表达谱基因芯片筛选体外循环前后心肌细胞因子的变化

Objestive Systemic inflarmmation may be triggered by injury, hypothermia, ischemia-reperfusion and the contact of the blood with foreign body during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). To determine the application values of gene chip technique in the clinical practice and the study of cardiovascular stagery, as well as to provide clues to the study of inflammatory responess during CPB, microarry for gene expression profiles was used to identify the differences in the gene expression of myocardium between pre-and post- CPB. Methods Six adult patients who underwent CPB from March to May in 2003 were involved. Samples of right atrium were col- lected before and at immediate end of CPB. BD AtlasTM cDNA Expression Arrays was used to identify the differences in the gene ex- pression of cytokines. The results were compared with that of semi-quantative RT-PCR. Resellts The mean age of 6 patients (5 males and 1 female) was (32.67± 11.72) years. The baseline heart function was gradeⅡin 3 cases and grade Ⅲ in 3 other cases. The baseline left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)was (58.17±7.91)%. The mere duration was (91.67±43.88) minutes for CPB and was (58.67±43.46) minutes for aorta blocking. The minimum nasopharynx/rectal temperture was (29.37±1.90)℃/ (32.15±1.52)℃. Gene expression profiles of cytokines in the myocardium pre- and post-CPB were analysed successfully. The ex- pression of IL-6, IFN-γ,Wnt5a, TNFRSF1B, a member of tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, PIGF and MFNG in the myo- cardium were unpregulated after CPB. Conclusion Microarray technique is applicable in the study of cytokines changes dying CPB. cDNA microarray identified pleliminarily the differences in the gene expression between pre- and post-CPB. These genes may be in- valved in inflammation and other psthophysiological responses incuced by CPB. The myocardiym is probably one of the major sources of cytokines during CPB. Further study may be helpful in understanding the llngthe development of inflammation during CPB, and eventually, reducing the post-operative complications.     

中国汉坦病毒H82O5株G2糖蛋白基因的克隆及在真核细胞中的瞬时表达

从感染病毒乳鼠脑组织提取总RNA，采用RT－PCR和分子克隆技术将扩增到的G2糖蛋白基因插入含CMV启动子的pcDNA3.1/His质粒载体中，通过脂质体介导转染COS－7细胞，用SDS－PAGE、Western-blot及IFIA方法分别测定表达产物的相对分子量及特异性。结果证明获得正向插入的G2－pcDNA3.1/His重组表达质粒，表达产物的相对分子量为56ku，与理论预期大小一致，并且可与汉坦病毒H8205株的腹水抗体起特异反应。表明构建的G2－pcDNA3.1/His重组质粒所表达的蛋白为中国汉坦病毒株特有，能在哺乳动物细胞中表达并具有抗原性，重组质粒可应用于汉坦病毒的DNA疫苗研究。

电针对佐剂性关节炎大鼠脊髓原癌基因C-fos表达的影响

为了探讨针刺镇痛的机理，本文以完全福氏佐剂足踝关节注射造成大鼠关节炎动物模型，电针“足三里”和“昆仑”穴，以大鼠脊髓腰膨大段脊髓原癌基因C－fos的表达作为观察指标，并设正常组、模型组、电针加纳洛酮注射组进行对照。实验结果：正常组FOS样免疫反应性（FLI）阳性细胞数极少，而模型组有大量的FLI阳性细胞，明显高于正常组，电针组与模型组相比较，电针组FLI阳性细胞数明显低于模型组，有非常显著性差异（P＜0．01）；电针加纳洛酮注射组与模型组比，统计分析无显著性差异（P＞0．05）；但与电针组相比，其FLI阳性细胞数高，统计分析有显著性差异（P＜0．05）。以上结果提示电针缓解佐剂关节炎病理性疼痛的作用与抑制伤害性传入冲动诱发脊髓原癌基因C－fos的表达有关。同时本实验还显示，电针抑制AA大鼠诱发脊髓原癌基因C－fos的表达与电针引起内源性β-EP的释放有关。     

肝癌多药耐药产生与低糖环境的关系

目的探讨局部微环境低糖与肝细胞癌多药耐药性(MDR)产生的关系及影响机制。方法低糖培养HepG2细胞,应用流式细胞术Annexin V/PI法检测低糖培养的细胞在化疗药物5-氟脲嘧啶(5-Fu)作用后的凋亡情况,分别应用荧光定量聚合酶链反应(PCR)技术和Western blot技术检测低糖培养后HepG2细胞内多药耐药相关基因mdr1、MRP1、LRP的mRNA和蛋白水平的表达。结果在低糖环境下生长时间越长的HepG2细胞对5-Fu的抵抗越强,而且随着低糖培养时间的增加,5-Fu诱导的HepG2细胞的凋亡高峰延迟。低糖培养的HepG2细胞内多药耐药相关基因mdr1、MRP1、LRP在mRNA和蛋白水平的表达随低糖培养时间的延长而升高,以LRP的改变最为显著。结论肝癌生长微环境葡萄糖耐量不足也是肝癌产生MDR的原因之一。低糖可通过上调一组多药耐药相关基因的表达而诱导肝癌的多药耐药性。
