We aimed to establish two kinds of TaqMan real-time PCR methods based on PCV20RF1 and ORF2 respectively and compare them. [Method] According to the relatively'conserved sequences of PCV20RF1 and ORF2 registered in GenBank, two pairs of specific primers and TaqMan probes were designed and synthesized. Then the recombinant plasmids containing the whole sequences of PCV20RF1 and ORF2 were constructed to draw the standard curves through optimizing the reaction system and conditions. And thus two kinds of TaqMan real-time PCR detection methods based on the whole sequences of ORF1 and ORF2 respectively were constructed for PCV2. [Result] For the two established standard curves, the Ct values showed a good linear relationship with the loga- rithms of copy numbers of templates (F2〉0.99). The amplification efficiency ranged from 90% to 110%. The amplifications all had a good repeatability with variation coefficients within groups all less than 5%. Moreover, the amplifications all had a good specificity. When the sequences of porcine parvovirus (PPV), porcine circovirus type 1 (PCV1), swine pseudorabies virus (PRV), porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) were used as templates, the target sequence was not amplified. The amplifications also had a high sensitivity. The ORF1 detection method could reach 1.0x10T copies/;ul, and the ORF2 detection method could reach 1.0×10^2 copies/μl. The two established real-time PCR detection methods were used to detect the 80 clinical samples respectively. The results showed the magnitudes of 72 amplified samples were basically consistent between the 2 detection methods, while the magnitudes of the other 8 amplified samples were inconsistent. Then the 8 samples were detected with SYBR Green I real-time PCR method established based on the sequence of PCV2-1ike factor P1 by Wen et aL The PCV2-1ike factor P1 was amplified in all the 8 samples, indicating the 8 samples were all infected with PCV2-1ike factor P1. [Conclusion] The ORFl-based detection method has a higher accuracy, and it can be used for the rapid detection of PCV2.展开更多

The abnormity of SH3-domain GRB2-1ike 2 (SH3GL2) gene was found in LSCC. In order to clarify the relationship between SH3GL2 gene and LSCC, we evaluated the expression of the SH3GL2 gene in LSCC. Method Real-time PCR, immunohistochemistry and Western blotting were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression and find the various rules of SH3GL2 gene in LSCC. Results The result of real-time PCR showed that the expression level of SH3GL2 mRNA in LSCC tissue was apparently down-regulated; immunohistochemical analysis showed that SH3GL2 protein was mainly located in cytoplasm, the rate of positive cells and SH3GL2 protein expression level were fluctuated with the pathological classification of LSCC; the result of Western blotting showed that SH3GL2 protein was down-regulated significantly in LSCC samples, especially in metastatic lymph nodes. Conclusions These results suggest that SH3GL2 is a LSCC related gene and its expression level is fluctuated with the pathological classification which indicate that SH3GL2 participates in the development and progression of LSCC. And it may be considered as a novel tumor marker to find both a new anti-oncogene and relative factors of invasion and metastasis of laryngeal carcinoma.展开更多

Though a seemingly simple differential cell elongation response within a responding tissue that results in organ curvature, phototropism is regulated through a complex set of signal perception and transduction events that move from the plasma membrane to the nucleus. In nature phototropism is one of several plant responses that have evolved to optimize photosynthesis and growth. OBJECTIVE: In the present work we will review the state of the field with respect to the molecules and mechanisms associated with phototropism in land plants. METHODS: A systematic literature search was done to identify relevant advances in the field. Though we tried to focus on literature within the past decade (1998-present), we have discussed and cited older literature where appropriate because of context or its significant impact to the present field. Several previous review articles are also cited where appropriate and readers should seek those out. RESULTS: A total of 199 articles are cited that fulfill the criteria listed above. CONCLUSIONS: Though important numerous and significant advances have been made in our understanding of the molecular, biochemical, cell biological and physiologic mechanisms underlying phototropism in land plants over the past decade, there are many remaining unanswered questions. The future is indeed bright for researchers in the field and we look forward to the next decade worth of discoveries.展开更多
