It is comprised of 1 550 bp and an open reading frame （ORF） of 241 amino acids, with a predicted molecular mass of approximately 28 kDa. In situ hybridization histochemistry revealed a tissue-specific expression pattern of Amphi-PhLP with the high levels in the ovary, and at a lower level in the hind grit and testis, hepatic caecum, gill, endostyle, and epipbaryngeal groove, while it was absent in the muscle, neural tube and notochord. In the Chinese Hamster Ovary （CHO） cells transfected with the expression plasmid pEGFP-NI/Amphi-PhLP, the fusion protein was targeted in the cytoplasm of CHO cells, suggesting that Amphi-PhLP is a cytosolic protein. This work may provide a framework for further understanding of the physiological function of Amphi-PhLP in B. belcheri.展开更多

Methods: Immunohistochemistry(IHC) and fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH) technique were used to detect HER2 gene amplification and expression of HER2 protein in 442 cases of gastric mixed carcinoma. Results: The expression rate of HER2 protein was 41.2%(182/442): the HER2 protein expression IHC 3+ extensive type in 18 cases, partial type in 21 cases, focal type in 8 cases, accounting for 10.6%(47/442); the HER2 protein expression IHC 2+ extensive type in 23 cases, partial type in 28 cases, focal type in 11 cases, accounting for 14.0%(62/442); the HER2 protein expression IHC 1+ extensive type in 27 cases, partial type in 31 cases, focal type in 15 cases, accounting for 16.5%(73/442). HER2 gene amplification rate of 442 cases was 16.1%(71/442). In 182 cases of HER2 protein positive expression, the HER2 gene cluster amplification rate was 14.8%(27/182), large granular amplification rate 11.0%(20/182), punctate amplification rate 6.0%(11/182) and high polysomy 7.1%(13/182). In 71 cases of HER2 gene amplification, there was 42 cases of HER2 protein expression IHC 3+, 22 cases of HER2 protein expression IHC 2+, and 7 cases of IHC 1+. Conclusion: HER2 detection of gastric mixed carcinoma has great heterogeneity, HER2 protein positive expression is divided into extensive type, partial type and focal type, and HER2 gene positive amplification is divided into cluster amplification, large granular amplification, punctate amplification and high polysomy. These typing of HER2 protein expression and HER2 gene amplification provide reference index to quantify for targeted therapeutic effect of anticancer drugs.展开更多

METHODS: Thirty Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups (diabetic group, diabetic insulin treatment group, and control group). After feeding for 24 weeks, the rats were sacrificed. The expression of NPY in the hypothalamus and pancreas was detected with immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. RESULTS: (1) The hypothalamic content of NPY and its mRNA were significantly increased in STZ-diabetic rats in comparison with normal controls. Increased expression of NPY mRNA was found only in the arcuate nucleus and not in the paraventricular nucleus in diabetic rats, suggesting that NPY was produced in the arcuate nucleus. (2) The hypothalamic content of NPY and its mRNA in STZ-diabetic rats were visibly reduced after insulin treatment compared with that in untreated diabetic rats. This supports the hypothesis that insulin deficiency in the brain may be responsible for increased hypothalamic NPY gene expression in diabetic rats. (3) The increase of hypothalamic NPY in STZ diabetic rats associated with hyperphagia and polydipsia could be reversed by insulin replacement, suggesting that increased hypothalamic NPY contributes to the pathophysiological progress of the diabetic state. (4) The present study demonstrated for the first time that the content of NPY and its mRNA in the pancreas was increased in STZ-diabetic rats, and that the distribution of NPY-positive cell in islets was changed from the periphery to the whole islet. The content and distribution of NPY and its mRNA in islets were not changed by insulin treatment. CONCLUSION: Increased NPY in the hypothalamus results in hypophagia and polydipsia, while the implication of increased NPY in the pancreas of diabetic rats is not clear.展开更多

Methods: In situ hybridization of procollagen gene expression was performed on the undecalcified cryosections of rat fracture callus at 7, 14, and 28 d. Results: The hybridization signals achieved were clear and easy to be localized with high specificity. On the 7th day, the expressions of pro α1(Ⅲ) in fibroblasts and some chondrocyte like cells were dominant; and at the end of second week high expression of type Ⅱ procollagen mRNA was observed in chondrocytes. At the end of fourth week, the cartilaginous callus was almost all replaced by woven bone tissue, and some type Ⅰ procollagen mRNA positive osteoblasts and hypertrophic chondrocytes were found scattering in the woven bone and remnants of cartilaginous callus.Conclusions: The modified method employed in this study is easier, quicker, and more sensitive with high specificity than the conventional technique for in situ hybridization of procollagen gene expression of decalcified rat fracture callus. The phenomenon of shared phenotype expression, which was demonstrated among cells engaged in fracture healing, indicates an important approach to reveal the mechanism of the origin, differentiation, and orientation of cells.展开更多
