All the isolates were secured from pigs except the Changchun strain which came from dog. The DNA fragments digested by endonuclease were separated by agarose gel electrophoresis. The Changchun isolate had a EcoRI band at 1. 12kb and a DraI band at 1. 97kb which were unique to this isolate. A cloned specific repetitive DNA sequence (1. 12kb) from the Changchun strain was selected to prepare a probe for the Southern blotting of EcoRI restriction DNA fragments for the 5 isolates. The 1.12kb hybridizing band did not appear except in the Changchun isolate.These results seem to indicate that there are differences between the isolates obtained from hosts in different geographical regions.展开更多

Our data suggest that the polymorphisms at the LPL gene,as the linkage markers with an aetiologic mutation at or around LPL gene,may constitute one of the genetic determinants for the population variation in plasma TG levels,as well as for the common dyslipidemia in Chinese population.展开更多

Methods: Seventy-four peri-menopausal and menopausal women with depressive disorder met ICD-10 and CCMD-3 assessment criteria for depressive disorder were recruited. ERβ gene Rsa1 polymorphism was analyzed with PCR-RFLP. Serum levels of estrogen, FSH and LH were measured by magnetism-ELISA. Results: The respective frequency of ERβ gene Rsa1 polymorphism was no significant difference between women with depressive disorder and the healthy women (χ 2=1.106,P>0.05). The serum level of estrogen was lower in women with depressive disorder than in the healthy women (P<0.05). No difference was found for FSH and LH between two groups. Conclusion: ERβ gene Rsa1 polymorphism may be not associated with depressive disorder in the peri-menopausal and menopausal women. The serum level of estrogen is associated with depressive disorder in the peri-menopausal and menopausal women.展开更多

Methods： The genetic polymorphism of mtDNA among 4 classical laboratory strains of inbred mice and 3 inbred strains of mice established in China was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction coupled with restriction fragment length polymorphism（PCR-RFLP） and PCR coupled with single-stranded conformation polymorphism（PCR-SSCP）. Results： With regard to the D-loop （Displacement loop, D-loop）, tRNA^ Met＋Glu＋Ile, and ND3 （NADH dehydrogenase subunit 3, ND3） gene fragments of mtDNA from these mice,no variation was revealed by PCR-RFLP at 46 restriction enzyme sites. Further analyzed by PCR-SSCP,the D-loop 5＇fragment and 3＇end fragment of mtDNA from these mice also showed no genetic variation. Conclusion： Owing to maternal mode of inheritance of mtDNA,the results indicate that these common inbred strains of mice share the same maternal lineage.展开更多
