A calcium sensor in the sodium channel modulates cardiac excitability.

Sodium channels are principal molecular determinants responsible for myocardial conduction and maintenance of the cardiac rhythm. Calcium ions (Ca2+) have a fundamental role in the coupling of cardiac myocyte excitation and contraction, yet mechanisms whereby intracellular Ca2+ may directly modulate Na channel function have yet to be identified. Here we show that calmodulin (CaM), a ubiquitous Ca2+-sensing protein, binds to the carboxy-terminal 'IQ' domain of the human cardiac Na channel (hH1) in a Ca2+-dependent manner. This binding interaction significantly enhances slow inactivation-a channel-gating process linked to life-threatening idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias. Mutations targeted to the IQ domain disrupted CaM binding and eliminated Ca2+/CaM-dependent slow inactivation, whereas the gating effects of Ca2+/CaM were restored by intracellular application of a peptide modelled after the IQ domain. A naturally occurring mutation (A1924T) in the IQ domain altered hH1 function in a manner characteristic of the Brugada arrhythmia syndrome, but at the same time inhibited slow inactivation induced by Ca2+/CaM, yielding a clinically benign (arrhythmia free) phenotype.     

一种针对加性空域掩密算法的通用掩密分析技术

为了提高通用掩密分析技术的检测性能，针对基于加性噪声的空域掩密技术设计了一种通用掩密分析算法，通过分析LSB、＋-k（k=1，3，5）和SM算法所引入的掩密噪声对图像差分直方图产生的影响，提出分别利用差分直方图分布的高阶统计矩和差分直方图曲线下特殊区域之间的面积比值作为分类特征的掩密分析特征选择算法，分别利用该算法和Farid的通用算法对由LSB、＋-k（k=1，3，5）算法掩密后的图像进行检测，实验结果表明，对于不同的嵌入消息比例，该算法的掩密检测率较Farid的算法都有了大幅度的提高。     

异丙酚用于喉部手术前气管切开的临床观察

目的 观察异丙酚在喉部手术前行气管切开期间应用的可行性及安全性.方法 选择择期喉部手术患者24例,每组12例,随机分为异丙酚组(Ⅰ组)和局麻组(Ⅱ组).Ⅰ组患者在局麻前给予异丙酚1～2 mg/kg缓慢静脉注射,待患者睫毛反射消失、意识丧失后给予1%利多卡因局部浸润再行气管切开.Ⅱ组患者仅在1%利多卡因局部浸润下行气管切开.记录切皮前、切皮时、插管时、插管后1 min、插管后3 min时患者心率(HR)、平均动脉压(MAP)及脉搏氧饱和度(SPO2),观察患者呼吸抑制发生率,燥动发生率及术后遗忘率.结果 切皮时,插管时及插管后1 min,3 min Ⅱ组患者心率(HR)、平均动脉压(MAP)较Ⅰ组患者明显升高,躁动发生率Ⅱ组患者明显高于Ⅰ组患者(P＜0.05),呼吸抑制发生率及脉搏氧饱和度(SPO2)变化无明显差异(P＞0.05).结论 异丙酚用于喉部手术前气管切开安全可行.

米索前列醇预防产后出血临床观察

目的探讨产妇舌下含服米索前列醇预防产后出血的效果.方法实验组100例产妇于胎头着冠时舌下含服米索前列醇600μg,对照组90例产妇于胎肩娩出后立即静脉注射缩宫素20IU.用容积法和称重法测量两组产妇的产后出血量.结果实验组产妇产后失血量平均为(116.43±94.32)ml,对照组产妇产后失血量平均为(296.52±79.41)ml,两组产妇产后失血量差异显著(P《0.01).结论舌下含服米索前列醇可有效减少产妇的产后失血量.     

Mutations in the gene encoding the basal body protein RPGRIP1L, a nephrocystin-4 interactor, cause Joubert syndrome

Protein-protein interaction analyses have uncovered a ciliary and basal body protein network that, when disrupted, can result in nephronophthisis (NPHP), Leber congenital amaurosis, Senior-L?ken syndrome (SLSN) or Joubert syndrome (JBTS). However, details of the molecular mechanisms underlying these disorders remain poorly understood. RPGRIP1-like protein (RPGRIP1L) is a homolog of RPGRIP1 (RPGR-interacting protein 1), a ciliary protein defective in Leber congenital amaurosis. We show that RPGRIP1L interacts with nephrocystin-4 and that mutations in the gene encoding nephrocystin-4 (NPHP4) that are known to cause SLSN disrupt this interaction. RPGRIP1L is ubiquitously expressed, and its protein product localizes to basal bodies. Therefore, we analyzed RPGRIP1L as a candidate gene for JBTS and identified loss-of-function mutations in three families with typical JBTS, including the characteristic mid-hindbrain malformation. This work identifies RPGRIP1L as a gene responsible for JBTS and establishes a central role for cilia and basal bodies in the pathophysiology of this disorder.

Seborrhea-like dermatitis with psoriasiform elements caused by a mutation in ZNF750, encoding a putative C2H2 zinc finger protein

We describe an Israeli Jewish Moroccan family presenting with autosomal dominant seborrhea-like dermatosis with psoriasiform elements, including enhanced keratinocyte proliferation, parakeratosis, follicular plugging, Pityrosporum ovale overgrowth and dermal CD4 lymphocyte infiltrate. We mapped the disease gene to a 0.5-cM region overlapping the PSORS2 locus (17q25) and identified a frameshift mutation in ZNF750, which encodes a putative C2H2 zinc finger protein. ZNF750 is normally expressed in keratinocytes but not in fibroblasts and is barely detectable in CD4 lymphocytes.
