Abstract:Objective Establish the miRNA expression profiling under environmental carcinogens and gene mutations,to provide some new clues for further study on the mechanism of tumorgenesis. Methods Under the same condition,mice were first prepared in SHP2 + / + normal ( wild type,Wt) and SHP2D61G/ + activating mutation ( gain-offunction mutation,GOF mutation) of immortalized fibroblast cells( mouse embryonic fibroblasts,MEFs) ,acute treat MEFs cells with 0. 5 μmol /L As2 O3 48 hours,then extract the cell total RNA. Use the analysis of miRNA hybridization to establish the miRNA( microRNA,miRNA,miR) expression profiling,screening the miRNAs which differential expression significantly,then validated by RT-PCR. Results After treated the SHP2 + / + MEFs and SHP2D61G/ + MEFs with As2 O3,dozens of miRNAs showed differential expression. The expression of miRNAs increase or decrease in different SHP-2 + / + MEFs or SHP-2D61G/ + MEFs when treat with As2 O3 or not,at the same time,we discovered some miRNAs show the same change along with the As2O3 treating and SHP2D61G/ + activating mutation,such as mmu-miRNA-100 ( down regulation) and mmu-miRNA-1907( up regulation) . Conclusion Gene mutation and environmental pollution can effect the miRNAs expression profiling of MEFs significantly, these change maybe the basis of cells malignant transformation and tumourgenesis.

Abstract:Objective To establish a spontaneous pulmonary tumor mouse model in which the K-Ras gene was activated by Cre /loxp recombinant enzyme system. Methods SPC-CRE transgenic mice were generated that lowly express lung-specific Cre recombinant enzyme. The SPC-CRE transgenic mice were mated with LSL K-ras G12D transgenic mice to produce SPC-CRE-Kras double transgenic mice. The 4,5,7 and 9 month-old SPC-CRE-Kras double transgenic mice were sacrificed and the lung tissues were extracted,fixed,embedded in paraffin and sliced. Hematoxylin-eosin ( HE) staining was performed and observed under light microscope. Micro-CT was used to test the pulmonary nodules of SPC-CRE-Kras double transgenic mice. Results The SPC-CRE-Kras double transgenic mice were generated. The expression of K-ras G12D in the SPC-CRE-Kras double transgenic mice could be induced by the Cre /Loxp recombinant enzyme system. Mild pulmonary inflammation could be found in the 4 month-old SPC-CRE-Kras double transgenic mice. The sporadic adenoma could be found in the lung of 5 month-old mice,with 100% of the mice developing pulmonary adenoma ( female 6 /6,male 6 /6) . The size and progression of the adenoma is time dependent. The pulmonary nodules could be determined by microCT in the 9 month-old. Conclusions A chronic spontaneous pulmonary tumor mouse model was established by hybridization. Longer progressive period from inflammation to adenoma in this model will provide enough time for the investigation of pulmonary tumorigenesis.

Abstract:Objective To establish a new catheterization of the spinal subarachnoid space in rats and to compare the difference between different types of intrathecal catheterization,which can be used for the research on neurophysiology and pain treatment. Methods ninty male SD rats weighing 200 - 250g were randomly divided into three groups with thirty animals in each group: Yaksh group,atlas and axis group ( AA group) and lumbar group ( L group) . After the models were established,we observed the percentage of death and paralysis of limbs and body weight changes; we also measured paw withdrawal threshold ( PWT) ,tail flick latency and analgesic effect of morphine. Results The percentage of death and paralysis of limbs in AA group and L group were obviously lower than Yaksh group,and the weight recovered faster than Yaksh group. Within 7 days of catheterization,PWT and the tail flick latency of AA group was closest to baseline. Morphine analgesic experiment showed there was no difference among the three groups. Conclusion The atlantoaxial catheterization model of the spinal subarachnoid space is characterized by its higher duplicability and less injury,which was a good intrathecal catheterization model.

Abstract:Objective To study decontamination technique of caesarean section among flagellates infected transgenic mice,and to establish specific pathogen-free ( SPF) mice strain in order to provide technical support for establishment of flagellates-eradication methods of genetically engineered mice. Methods APPswe /PS1dE9 transgenic mice ( APP mice) were used to conduct this research. Caesarean section was taken on pregnant APP mice to get pups under a SPF barrier environment,and the pups were transferred to female SPF Parkinson's Disease transgenic mice which served as a foster mother. Survival rates of pups were calculated in 7 days of age and after weaning. Pathogens were tested in the first month,and later,every 3 months since Caesarean sections. APPswe gene of APP mice was amplified by polymerase chain reaction ( PCR) for genotyping. Average gene positive rate was calculated among the pups and their offspring ( F1) ,and one sample t test was conducted to compare the average gene positive rate with the theoretical Mendelian segregation ratio ( 50% ) . Results We performed 11 Caesarean sections on APP pregnant mice,and a total of 75 pups were collected and transferred to a foster mother. Survival rate of the pups after 7 days and weaning was 90. 67% ( 68 /75) and 73. 33%( 55 /75) ,respectively. Pathogens tested before decontamination showed flagellates infection among APP mice was 100% ( 5 /5) ,but after decontamination,all the pathogens required for SPF all show negative results. The average APPswe gene positive rate of the dams in APP mice after decontamination was 48. 3% ,which was in accordance with the Mendelian segregation ratio ( P > 0. 05) . Conclusion We had successfully eradicated flagellates from the APP mice by caesarean section and a foster mother technique with stable hereditary feature of APPswe gene.

Results We performed 11 Caesarean sections on APP pregnant mice,and a total of 75 pups were collected and transferred to a foster mother. Survival rate of the pups after 7 days and weaning was 90. 67% ( 68 /75) and 73. 33%( 55 /75) ,respectively. Pathogens tested before decontamination showed flagellates infection among APP mice was 100% ( 5 /5) ,but after decontamination,all the pathogens required for SPF all show negative results. The average APPswe gene positive rate of the dams in APP mice after decontamination was 48. 3% ,which was in accordance with the Mendelian segregation ratio ( P > 0. 05) . Conclusion We had successfully eradicated flagellates from the APP mice by caesarean section and a foster mother technique with stable hereditary feature of APPswe gene.

Abstract:Obeject recognition task ( ORT) is a widely used behavioural test with several distinctive characteristics for assessment of the memory functions in rodents. Currently,few publications specifically characterizing the test in ORT were found,although ORT has received much attention from researchers in China. Consenquently,this paper was to review the method of ORT in rats.

Abstract:Whether animal experiments can proceed( progress) smoothly is closely related to the quality of the laboratory animals. It is required by our country that the SPF level laboratory mice must be excluded from 11 kinds of virus,nevertheless,the microorganism carried by the themselves can still interfere the result of the experiments. Murine Norovirus was isolated from the accidental died mice,which can induce inflammation and even death in the immunodeficient mice. The reports on murine norovirus virus are still relatively infrequent in domestic,understanding of it's pathogenicity and the influence on the experiment is still not entirely clear. In this paper,we will mainly introduce the discovery,hazards,detection and pathogen features of the Murine Norovirus,then give advices so that we can understand MNV and control the spread of the virus better.

Abstract:Object To study the concentration of ketamine hydrochloride and xylazine hydrochloride in anesthetizing ostriches,and to evaluate the management of peroperative period. Methods 7 cases of ostriches were performed combined anesthesia to make femur head necrosis model. Xylazine hydrochloride 400 mg and ketamine hydrochloride 2 000 mg was administrated as basic dose,and 100 mg at a time was added as anesthesia induction. The dose of anesthesia induction,anesthesia excellence time,anesthesia maintaining time,time of palinesthesia,time of complete palinesthesia were evaluated. we also detect the respiration rate,heart rate,adverse reaction ( vomiting,salivation,restlessness) during surgery. Use nikethamide to palinesthesia after surgery. Results 7 cases of ostriches were anesthetizd by xylazine hydrochloride ( with concentration of ( 7. 83 ± 0. 32) mg /kg) and ketamine hydrochloride ( with concentration of ( 29. 03 ± 2. 42) mg /kg) respectively.
