      Abstract:Objective To analyze single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP) of inbred mouse genes by a lately established method-single-tube bi-directional allele specific amplification(SB-ASA).Method 16 SNP were detected by the SB-ASA method in 5 inbred mouse strains.We also designed a double-blind experiment and sequencing to validate the reliability of this method,and assessed its influence on the results of PCR system and amplification conditions.Results SB-ASA was successfully used to type 5 inbred mouse strains for 16 SNP loci,and the results were completely consistent with those obtained by sequencing.Five inbred mouse strains were successfully distinguished with a double-blind experiment by just 3 SNP loci.Conclusion SB-ASA can be used to SNP genetic monitoring of inbred mice,and it can be popularized and applied as a new molecular biological method of genetic monitoring.

      Abstract:Objective To compare the therapeutic effects of retinal detachment operation performed at different stages on the visual function,and to provide theoretical and experimental evidence for choosing the best operation time and recovery of visual function.Methods 15 colored rabbits were used for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.The animals were for retinal reattachment after 1,7 and 14 days,respectively.Multifocal eletroretinography was performed and tissue samples were taken for light and electron microscopic examinations.Results The average response densities of P-wave at the first day detached retina after rhegmatogenous retinal detachment were significantly longer than those at seventh and fourteenth days,respectively,and the latencies of N-wave and P-wave were significantly smaller than those in other groups. Both the light and electron microscopic examinations depicted morphological alterations in the rhegmatogenous retinal detachment eyes followed by reattachment surgery.Conclusion The results demonstrated that there is a negative correlation between the recovery of retinal cells function after reattachment surgery and the post-operation time after rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.Multifocal eletroretinography may have significant value in evaluation of topical visual function of the retina.Histopathological examination may provide important evidence for explaination of the alterations of visual function.

      Abstract:Objective To develop a DNA vaccine against canine parvovirus(CPV) infection.Methods The VP2 gene of CPV with or without CpG motif was cloned by PCR.The eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3 was modified by restriction digestion to remove its neo~r gene and to replace its amp~r with kan~r to conform gene therapy requirements.The recombinant plasmids were constructed by subcloning the VP2 gene with or without CpG motif into the modified vector pcDNAK and injected into BALB/c mice and Beagle dogs.Both primary and secondary antibody responses were detected by hemagglutination inhibition(HI) assay.Results Injection of the recombinant vector pcDNA3-VP2C1 containing one copy of the consensus CpG motif into BALB/c mice lead to more elevated antibody response than the empty vector pcDNAK and the recombinant vector pcDNAK-VP2 without CpG motif.Gene immunization experiments in dogs preimmunized with an inactivated vaccine showed that the pcDNAK-VP2C2 vector containing two copies of canine-specific CpG induced higher secondary immune response than that of the pcDNA3-VP2C1 vector.Conclusion These data indicate that the pcDNAK-VP2C2 vector containing canine-specific CpG is highly antigenic and could be used for further studies for development of gene vaccines against canine parvovirus disease.

      Abstract:Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of calcitonin on osteoporosis in ovariectomized rats,and to investigate the association between calcitonin and IGF-1 and vitamin D.Methods 40 female 10-month old SD rats were randomized into 4 groups: sham operation group,ovariectomized(OVX) group,calcitonin(CT) group,Raloxifene hydrochloride group.The experimental model of osteoporosis was established by bilateral ovariectomy.Given CT 60 mg/kg body weight subcutaneous injection for 8 weeks,bone mineral densities of global and the lumber spine and femur neck were measured with Hologic dual energy x-ray bone densitometer in rat.Femur trabecular area,bone mineral deposition were measured by morphometry after the completion of therapy.Serum IGF-1 levels and serum 25OHVitD concentrations and lymphocyte vitamin D receptor contents were determined by ELISA.Results BMD of the lumber spine and femur neck in CT group and Raloxifene group were higher than that in OVX control group(P<0.01).Calcitonin increased trabecular area and bone deposition compared with that in OVX group.The serum IGF-1 and 25-OHVitD concentration in CT group and Raloxifene group were significantly higher than that in OVX control group(P<0.01).Conclusion Our findings indicate that the use of calcitonin demonstrated definite effect on IGF-1 levels and vitamin D metabolism and could be an effective therapy for osteoporosis.

      Abstract:目的小鼠窦前卵泡体外培养得到成熟卵母细胞,观察卵母细胞的染色体和纺锤体形态,分析其变化及原因。方法完整小鼠窦前卵泡培养12 d,得到的卵母细胞进行免疫荧光染色,共聚焦显微镜观察纺锤体和染色体的形态和分布。结果经过体外培养,得到GV、M I、MⅡ期卵母细胞分别占总数27.9%、37.2%、34.9%;GV期卵母细胞存在完整的染色质圆环,11.8%的M I期卵母细胞显示正常纺锤体和染色体;38.5%的MⅡ期卵母细胞显示正常的纺锤体和染色体。结论小鼠窦前卵泡经体外培养后能够得到成熟的MⅡ期卵母细胞,但是其效率较低。原因可能是卵母细胞骨架结构的异常使染色体分离障碍,部分卵母细胞停留于M I期;同时成熟卵母细胞的受精率低也与纺锤体异常有关。
