ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the expression of IL-12 family subunit genes by real-time quantitative PCR in mice C6 glioma cells,construct the basis of the brain glioma research on IL-12 family in the future.Methods:Mice C6 glioma RNA was abstracted and reversed transcription cDNA.The mice C6 glioma cells mRNA expression influence of IL-12 family subunit genes was compared and analyzed by real-time quantitative PCR.Results: In mice C6 glioma cells, high expression abundances in IL-23a, IL-12a, midlde expression abundances in EBI3, IL-27, low expression abundance in IL-12b.Conclusion: IL-12 families are closely related to the occurrence and development of glioma,IL-12,IL-23 are regarded as the most potential anti-glioma cytokines among them,research de-velopments will bring a new way of brain glioma immune therapy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate and analyze the situation of urban neglected children aged 3 to 6 in 9 districts of Chongqing .Methods Totally 1 316 children were randomly sampled under stratification from 18 streets of 9 district of Chongqing . Based on the Child Neglect Norms used by China ,prevalence of child neglect was identified and SPSS 13 .0 was employed for statis‐tical analysis .Scores ,frequency/degrees ,age ,sex and 5 types (physical ,emotional ,educational ,safety and medical) of child neglect on every group of the regions were calculated .Results The average prevalence of child neglect for the 3 to 6 year‐olds was 22 .95% ,and the total degree was 39 .56 ± 7 .19 .No significant differences were found in the prevalence and degree of child neglect between males and females and among age groups (P<0 .05) .The frequencies of child neglect for the five types were 5 .09% to 10 .64% ,with the higher frequencies of safety neglect (10 .64% ) and physical neglect (9 .50% ) .The degrees of child neglect for the five types were 36 .94 to 41 .24 ,with the higher degrees of educational neglect and physical neglect (41 .24 ± 10 .43 ,39 .81 ± 9 .32 respectively ) .No significant differences were found in the frequency of the types between males and females and among age groups . No significant differences were found in the degree of the types (with an exception on emotional neglect among age groups) between males and females and among age groups .The children aged 3 to 6 were mainly involved in single item of negligence ,with incidence rates as 13 .68% and proportions as 59 .60% .Conclusion The frequency and degree of child neglect among children aged 3 to 6 in the urban areas of 9 district of Chongqing were medium ,and similar between males and females and among age groups ,except the degree of emotional neglect .The children aged 3 to 6 had the higher frequencies of safety and physical neglect ,and the higher de‐grees of educational and physical neglect .The children aged 3 to 6 were mainly involved in single item of negligence .
ABSTRACT
Gelatin-siloxane nanoparticles (GS NPs) have been considered to be good gene carrier candidate in vitro, since they have several advantages such as low toxicity, easy preparation and surface modification. In this study, the Tat-PEG-GS NPs were synthesized by the gelatin-siloxane, surface-modified with the polyethylene glycol (H2 N-PEG-COOH) and Tat peptide (KYGRRRQRRKKRGC) and thus constructed a delivery system which can cross BBB (Blood-brain barrier). The morphology, diameter, and zeta potential of Tat-PEG-GS NPs carrier system were characterized with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Nano-ZS zetasizer dynamic light scattering Detector. The organ distribution and dynamic evolution localized in the brain parenchyma of Tat-PEG-GS NPs in vivo was investigated with Cri in vivo imaging system and TEM. The obtained Tat-PEG-GS NPs were approximately spherical in shape with average particle size of 150-200 nm and zeta potentials of (32.27 +/- 2.47) mV. In vivo imaging results showed that the accumulation of Tat-PEG-GS NPs was higher in the brain than the accumulation of PEG-GS NPs, but the accumulation of Tat-PEG-GS NPs was lower in the liver than the accumulation of PEG-GS NPs. These differences are statistically significant. The nanocomplex could cross the BBB and reach the neural tissues tested with TEM. The Tat-PEG-GS NPs could cross the BBB and escape the arrest of the reticuloendothelial system (RES), and it would be potential nano-carrier systems for central delivery.
