      Abstract:ObjectiveTo acquire cDNA sequence of tree shrew CXCR4 and to understand whether tree shrew CXCR4 (tsCXCR4) supports the HIV_1 binding. MethodsThe corresponding designed primers, RT_PCR, gene cloning, DNA sequencing analysis were used. ResultsThe clone of full_length tsCXCR4 cDNA is 1059bp. The homology of tsCXCR4 with that of human CXCR4 (hCXCR4) is 92 8% at nucleotide level and 96 9% at deduced amino acid level. Tyr residues are at positions 7 and 12, and Glu residues are at positions 14,15 and 32 in th e NH 2 _terminal extracellular domain of the tsCXCR4. In addition, Arg residues at positions 183 and 188, and Asp residues at positions 193, 262 and 97 are found in the extracellular loops and transmembrane domains of the tsCXCR4, the above residues are the same as hCXCR4, and are essential for the function of hCXCR4. ConclusionThese results suggest that tsCXCR4 may contribute to the entry of X4 and R5X4 strains of HIV_1.

      Abstract:ObjectiveTo study the isolation, culture and characterization of neural stem cells from newborn rat spinal cords. Methods\ Cell culture technique and indirect immunoflurenscence cytochemistry were used. Results\ The cells were proliferated vitally. Neurospheres achieved by single cell cloning were positive with incoporation of BrdU and Nestin immunoflurescence staining. The cells had survived and grown for 8 months in vitro. The neurospheres could be induced to differentiate into neurons and astrocytes by 1% calf serum. Conclusions\ Neural stem cells from newborn rat spinal cords were cultured successfully.

      Abstract:Objective To create a new animal model for atherosclerostic resten osis induced after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA).Methods\ 18 Japanese white rabbits were selected including 6 in the normal group. The both co mmon carotid arteries were stimulated by electric current generated by a thrombo sis inducer. The rabbits were fed by high-fat diet for 6 weeks after the operat i on. The models were sacrificed and the arteries were obtained at 3 days,1 wee k,3 weeks and 6 weeks respectively after the operation. Then the pathological sl ides were prepared and stained for optical microscopic observation. Result s\ Within 1 week after the operation there was thrombi-g e neration in the models' arteries; endothelial cell hyperplasia and pa rtly internal plastic membrane broken in tunica intima; minor SMC(smooth mus cle cell) edematous or disappeared in tunica media; neutrophil infiltrated in tunica adventitia. The status beyond 3 weeks after the operation was obviously hyperplastic in tunica i n tima and lipid-deposited under it; partly SMC-decreased,both fibre and ground-substance hyperplastic in tunica media, especially in the stimulated par ts; slightly stimulated parts thickened in tunica adventitia. All the 6 animals' a rt eries 6 weeks after the operation were stenosed. Conclusion\ The i ntegra tion of stimulating common carotid arteries by electric current and feeding by h igh-fat diet can induce the animal model of atherosclerostic stenosis successfu lly. The model's pathologic change is similar to human atherosclerosis. Additi onally, the arteries' blind ends generated by the method of PTA can be avoided.

      Abstract:ObjectiveTo observe the influence of different blood glucose levels and the influence of glucose before and after hypoxia-ischemia(HI) on the body weight and brain w eight of HI neonatal rats. MethodsNeonatal rat models with HI and hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia were prepared. Then the body weight was sca led before decapitation at the time of 2 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h and 7 d after HI an d brain weight of rat models was scaled immediately after decapitation. The sy nthesis of cerebral GLUT1 and GLUT3 in neonatal rats was explored with immunohis t ochemical method at 24h after HI. Results Body weight and b rain weight of the group with hypoglycemia before and after HI were significant ly lo wer than those of other groups at the time of 24 h after HI; brain weight of hyp o xia-ischemia neonatal rat models with hyperglycemia before HI was higher than t h at of HI group and group with hypoglycemia before HI at the time of 7d after HI. At time point of 24h the synthesis of GLUT1 in group with hyperglycemia before HI was significantly higher than that of other groups, while the synthesis of GL UT3 in group with hypoglycemia before HI was significantly lower than that of ot her groups.ConclusionHypoglycemia before HI is disadvantageous for the increase of body weight and brain weight, while hyperglycemia before HI is to some extent protective by alleviating the decrease of body weight and bra in weight by HI.

      Abstract:Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) is a widely-used experimental animal model o f human rheumatoid arthritis(RA) which shares certain features with RA, such as in pathogenesis and pathology. Recent research demonstrates that some activated T cells are critical to the development of CIA, especially during the initial ph ase. All suggests that CIA is kind of dominant T cell-mediated autoimmune disea se.
