ABSTRACT
Objective To set up a method of stools protein extraction,analysis and identification in order to get the new nonin-vasive indicators of human digestive diseases.Methods The stools proteins,collected from healthy persons,the patients with atrophic gastritis,those who suffed from gastric carcinoma and postoperative patients with gastric carcinoma respectively, were extracted in three different ways including saline,Tris-HCl buffer and Urea buffer,the best way was selected by using SDS-PAGE,then a preliminary analysis of stools proteins was performed by 1D LC-MS/MS.Results The methods of saline and Tris-HCl buffer could get more stools proteins than the method of urea.The proteins in stools from the healthy persons, the patients with atrophic gastritis,the patients with gastric carcinoma and postoperative patients with gastric carcinoma were all abundant and more than one hundred.There was a significant difference in stools protein maps among the various populations.Alpha1-antitrypsin,a number of immunoglobulin and keratin were identified in the stools from patients with gastric carcinoma but not postoperative patients with gastric carcinoma and the healthy persons.Conclusions In this re-search,there was a significant difference in stools protein maps among the healthy persons,the patients with atrophic gastri-tis,the patients with gastric carcinoma and postoperative patients with gastric carcinoma,not only the composition of stools proteins,but also the abundance of same proteins.Therefore,using proteomics technologies to screening of the noninvasive indicators in human stools is viable.The study recommended that the noninvasive indicators in human stools should be iden-tified with quantitative differences analysis combination of quality of mass spectrometer method in the future research.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To assess the association of vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene Fok I and Bsm I polymorphisms with dyslipidemia in elderly male patients with type 2 diabetes of Han nationality.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 328 elderly male residents of Han nationality in Beijing, including 237 type 2 diabetic patients and 91 healthy control subjects, were enrolled in this study. The diabetic patients were divided into non-dyslipidemia group (DO group, n=134) and dyslipidemia group (DH group, n=103). All the participants were genotyped for Fok I and Bsm I polymorphisms in VDR gene using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and DNA sequencing technology, and the results were compared with their clinical characteristics.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>For Fok I, the frequency of F allele was significantly higher in the diabetic patients than in the control group (Χ(2)=3.873, P=0.049, OR=1.439, 95% CI: 1.001-2.071). In the dominant model, the frequency of FF genotype was significantly higher in the diabetic group (Χ(2)=5.057, P=0.025, OR=1.756, 95% CI: 1.072-2.875) as well as in DH group (Χ(2)=6.168, P=0.013, OR=2.06, 95% CI: 1.161-3.663) than in the control group. There was no significant differences in the genotype frequency or allele distribution in other paired groups (P>0.05). Compared with Ff + ff genotype, FF genotype was associated with a significantly decreased average diastolic blood pressure (P=0.039) but significantly increased postprandial blood glucose (P=0.035), triglycerides (P=0.049) and uric acid (P=0.031). No significant difference was detected in genotype frequency or allele distribution of Bsm I polymorphisms between the groups (P>0.05); serum creatinine levels were significantly higher in bb genotype than in BB + Bb genotype group (P=0.011).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>VDR gene Fok I polymorphisms may be a risk factor for dyslipidemia in elderly male patients with type 2 diabetes among Chinese Han population, where Bsm I polymorphisms are not associated with diabetic dyslipdiemia.</p>

Objective To approach the relationship between the membrane protein of platelet microparticles and myocardial infarction or hypertension. Methods The contents were examined of PAC-1~ + PMP and CD62P~+ PMP by activating platelet with 20?mol/L ADP in the blood collected from the patients with myocardial infarction (n=12) and hypertension (n=10). Results The contents of PAC-1~ + PMP and CD62P~+ PMP in myocardial infarction group (85.1%?3.7%, 85.9%?3.8%) were significantly higher than normal group (75.5%?4.4%, 76.3% 5.3%) (P
