Abstract
Tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH), the rate limiting enzyme in serotonin biosynthesis, is one of the most important regulating factors in the serotonergic system. Recently, polymorphisms of the TPH gene have been identified as being associated with suicide, but the evidence is inconsistent. To investigate the role in suicide of one of the isoforms, TPH1, we examined the association of five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter region and in intron 7 of the TPH1 gene based on a sample from the Chinese population of 810 subjects, of whom 329 had made no suicide attempts (NSA), 297 had made suicide attempts (SA), and 184 were healthy subjects (HS). In this study, we observed statistically significant differences between NSA and HS subjects in allele distributions on one marker, -6526A (p = 0.0329; odds ratio (OR) 1.36; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.01 to 1.81). No significant difference in genotype distribution or allele frequencies of other polymorphisms was found between the suicide victims and the controls. The overall haplotype frequency was significantly different between cases and healthy controls (p = 0.000024 NSA v HS; p < 0.000001, SA v HS; p < 0.000001, cases v HS). We found the haplotype TCAAA of -7180/-7065/-6526/218/779 to be strongly associated with suicidal behaviour and psychiatric disorders (p = 0.00243; OR = 1.62; 95% CI 1.17 to 2.24 and p = 0.018; OR = 1.41; 95% CI 1.05 to 1.91), which suggests an association of TPH1 with suicidal behaviour and indicates that TPH1 may play a significant role in the aetiology of psychiatric disorders in the Han Chinese population.

Abstract
In this study we focused on detecting schizophrenia related changes of plasma proteins using proteomic technology and examining the relation between schizophrenia and haptoglobin (Hp) genotype. We investigated plasma proteins from schizophrenic subjects (n = 42) and healthy controls (n = 46) by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) in combination with mass spectrometry. To further reveal the genetic relationship between acute phase proteins (APPs) and schizophrenia disease, we tested Hp alpha1/Hp alpha2 (Hp 1/2) polymorphism and two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of Hp, rs2070937 and rs5473, for associations with schizophrenia in the Chinese Han population. With the relatively high number of samples for 2-DE work, we found that four proteins in the family of positive APPs were all up-regulated in patients. In genetic association study, we found significant associations existing between schizophrenia and Hp polymorphisms, Hp 1/2 and rs2070937 variants. Schizophrenia is accompanied by both an altered expression of Hp protein and a different genotype distribution of Hp gene, demonstrating that Hp is associated with schizophrenia. The results from proteomic and genomic aspects both indicate that acute phase reaction is likely to be an aetiological agent in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia, but not just an accompanying symptom. The positive APPs are schizophrenic related proteins, with the highly concordant results on four positive APPs.

Abstract
The RTN4R gene is located in the 22q11 region and it encodes a subunit of the receptor complex (RTN4R-p75NTR) which results in neuronal growth inhibitory signals in response to Nogo-66, MAG or OMG signaling. Previous studies have suggested that RTN4R might act as a potential candidate for schizophrenia susceptibility loci. We genotyped four SNPs within the gene and conducted a case-control study and TDT analysis, involving 707 schizophrenic patients, 689 controls and 372 unrelated small nuclear families with schizophrenic offspring in the Chinese population. We examined allele and genotype frequencies and haplotype distributions in both family- and nonfamily-based samples. Our results suggest that there is no significant association between the genetic polymorphisms and schizophrenia in the Han Chinese population.

Abstract
The MPZL1/PZR gene has been mapped to 1q23.3, located in close proximity to a recognized schizophrenia susceptibility locus. Recently, the MPZL1/PZR gene has been found to be significantly upregulated in schizophrenia brain tissue and to play an important role in cell signaling, thus indicating that MPZL1/PZR could be a potential schizophrenia marker. To test this hypothesis, we selected three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for genotyping in 523 Han Chinese trios. We found that two individual SNPs were significant at the Bonferroni's corrected significance level P<0.017: rs3767444 (chi2=6.299, P=0.0121) and rs2051656 (chi2=9.856, P=0.0017). Haplotype transmission/disequilibrium tests revealed a significant association with the disease (global P-value=1.064 x 10(-6)), but no specific transmission distortions. Thus, we propose that the MPZL1/PZR gene may be important in the predisposition to schizophrenia among Han Chinese.

Abstract
The biodiversity and distribution of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in different ecosystems and plant communities in China has received increasing interest over the past decades. This has led to a steady increase in the number of scientific papers published on this topic. Studies have surveyed AMF-colonizing rhizospheres of most families of angiosperms, bryophytes, pteridophytes, and gymnosperms. China has about 30,000 plant species (one eighth of the plant species worldwide). A total of 104 AMF species within nine genera, including 12 new species, have been reported in environments such as croplands, grasslands, forests, and numerous disturbed environments. In this paper, we review data published over the past 20 years on AMF community composition and species distribution, the mycorrhizal status of plants, AMF spore communities in different habitats, and germplasm collections in China. Possible future trends in the study of the biodiversity of AMF are also briefly discussed. In particular, the aim of our review is to make some of the recent work published in the Chinese literature accessible to a wider international audience.

Abstract
A survey was made of the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) status of 73 spring ephemeral plant species that grow in the desert ecosystem of Junggar Basin, northwest China. The proportion of AM colonization ranged from 7 to 73% with a mean value of 30%. A total of 65 plant species studied were AM with coils/arbuscules or vesicles and the remaining eight species were possibly AM with no coils/arbuscules or vesicles but with fungal mycelia in the root cortex. AM fungal spores were isolated from rhizosphere samples of all 73 plant species and identified. The mean spore density was 22 per 20 ml of air-dried soil, ranging from 0 to 120. Colonization and spore density of perennials were slightly higher than of annuals and varied among different plant families. A total of 603 AM fungal spore (or sporocarp) specimens were isolated belonging to six genera, Acaulospora, Archaeopora, Entrophospora, Glomus, Paraglomus, and Scutellospora; Glomus was the dominant genus. We conclude that spring ephemerals may be highly dependent on AM associations for survival in the very infertile and arid soils of this desert ecosystem.

Abstract
The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) status of nine dominant sedge species and the diversity of AM fungi in Tibetan grassland were surveyed in the autumn of 2003 and 2004. Most of the sedge species and ecotypes examined were mycorrhizal, but Carex moorcroftii and Kobresia pusilla were of doubtful AM status, and Kobresia humilis was facultatively mycorrhizal. This is the first report of the mycorrhizal status of eight of the nine sedge species examined. Intraradical vesicles and aseptate hyphae were the structures most frequently observed. Appressoria, coils, and arbuscules were found in the roots of a few sedge species. A strong negative correlation was found between soil organic matter content and the extent of mycorrhizal colonization. Using trap cultures, 26 species of AM fungi belonging to six genera, Glomus, Acaulospora, Paraglomus, Archaeospora, Pacispora, and Scutellospora, were isolated from the soil samples collected. The frequency of occurrence of different taxa of AM fungi varied greatly. Glomus and Acaulospora were the dominant genera, and Acaulospora scrobiculata was the most frequent and abundant species. The species richness of AM fungi was 2.73 in the study area. Species richness and diversity index differed among the sedge species but were not correlated with soil factors such as pH, available P, or organic matter content.

Abstract
We report for the first time the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) status of native plant species and AM fungal diversity in the grasslands of southern Tibet. A total of 51 soil samples were collected from the rhizospheres of the dominant plant species, and AM fungal structures were observed in 18 (82%) of 22 plant species examined. Vesicles and aseptate hyphae were the structures most frequently observed in the plant roots. After trap culture for 5 months, 25 AM fungal taxa were identified in the soil samples collected, of which nine belonged to Glomus, ten to Acaulospora, one to Entrophospora and five to Scutellospora. The frequency of occurrence of different genera and species varied greatly. Glomus was the dominant genus, and the most frequent and abundant species was Glomus mosseae. Over the whole sampling area, spore density in the rhizosphere soil of different host plant species ranged from 2 to 66 per 20 g air-dried soil. Overall AM fungal species richness was 2.10 and species diversity was 2.35. AM fungal diversity was also compared among the four different land use types (farmland and normal, disturbed and highly disturbed montane scrub grassland). Spore densities in the farmland and normal grassland were much higher than in the grasslands that had been degraded to varying degrees. The species richness in normal grassland was the highest of the four land use types examined. Species diversity varied from 1.99 to 0.94 and was highest in normal grassland, intermediate in degraded grassland and farmland, and lowest in the highly disturbed grassland.

Abstract
Species richness, spore density, frequency of occurrence, and relative abundance of AM fungi were determined in rhizosphere soil samples from nine tropical rainforest sites on Hainan island, south China, and the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) status of members of the Meliaceae was examined. All 28 plant taxa investigated (25 species including two varieties of 1 species and three varieties of another) were colonized by AM fungi. The mean proportion of root length colonized was 56% (range 10-95%). Vesicles were observed in 27 and hyphal coils in 26 of the 28 plant taxa. Mycorrhizas were of the Paris-type or intermediate-type, with no Arum-type mycorrhizas observed. Species richness of AM fungi varied from 3 to 15 and spore density from 46 to 1,499 per 100 g rhizosphere soil. Of 33 AM fungal taxa in five genera isolated and identified, 18 belonged to Glomus, 9 to Acaulospora, 1 to Entrophospora, 2 to Gigaspora, and 3 to Scutellospora. Acaulospora and Glomus were the dominant genera identified. Glomus claroideum was the taxon most commonly isolated, with a frequency of occurrence of 56.5% and relative abundance of 10.4%. A positive correlation was found between percentage of root length colonization and species richness. However, there was no correlation between spore density and percentage of root length colonized by AM fungi.

Abstract
A previous case-control study by Yang et al. indicated that the TCP1 gene in 6q25 was associated with schizophrenia in the Han population. To replicate this result, we selected eight SNPs (rs2273828, rs3818298, rs1547094, rs1547093, rs2295898, rs2295899, rs4832, rs15982) spanning the whole gene and performed a family-based study using 325 trios samples. Our transmission disequilibrium test showed neither allele nor haplotype association with schizophrenia, and suggests that the TCP1 locus is not associated with schizophrenia in the Chinese population. Since 6q25 has consistently been found to be a susceptible region for schizophrenia, we suggest that other genes within this region should be the focus of attention.

Abstract
Recent research has suggested that the DiGeorge syndrome critical region gene 14 (DGCR14) exhibits activity differences of more than 1.5 fold between the haplotypes of the variants in the promoter region. DGCR14 is located at 22q11.21, an acknowledged region for susceptibility to schizophrenia. To test the hypothesis that DGCR14 may be involved in the etiology of the disease, we carried out a family-based association study between the reported functional markers and schizophrenia in 235 Chinese Han trios. We found significant evidence of preferential transmission of the promoter variants of DGCR14 across all the trios (Best p-value = 0.00038, Global p-value = 0.0008). The positive results have suggested that DGCR14 is likely to play an important role in the etiology of schizophrenia in the Chinese Han population.

Abstract
The TRAR4 gene locates in SCZD5 (MIM 603175), which a number of studies have linked with schizophrenia. One recent study suggested that three TRAR4 variants (M1: rs4305745, P=0.0014; M2: rs6903874, P=0.0026; M3: rs6937506, P=0.0052) in the 3'-UTR were associated with schizophrenia. To replicate these findings, we conducted a family-based association study within a sample of 235 Chinese Han trios. However, we didn't find significant evidence of preferential transmission of the three variants across all the trios (all P values>0.2). Thus, we conclude that TRAR4 is not a major or independent determinant in the occurrence of schizophrenia in the Chinese Han population.

Abstract
T-lymphocytes play an important role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In this study, we evaluated the hypothesis that common T-cell receptor (TCR) structural features may exist among infiltrating T cells of different RA patients, if the TCR repertoire is shaped by interaction with common self or microbial antigens in the context of susceptible HLA genes in RA. Synovial lesion tissue (ST), synovial fluid (SF) and blood specimens from RA patients and controls were analyzed for TCR V gene repertoire by real-time PCR. There was highly skewed BV14 and BV16 usage in synovial T cells of RA as opposed to those of controls, which was accompanied with a trend for correlation between skewed BV16 and DRB1(*)0405. Immunoscope analysis of the V-D-J region of ST-derived T cells demonstrated oligoclonal and polyclonal expansion of BV14(+) and BV16(+) T cells. Detailed characterization using specific BV and BJ primers further revealed common clonotypes combining the same BV14/BV16, BJ and CDR3 length. DNA cloning and sequence analysis of the clonotypes confirmed identical CDR3 sequences and common CDR3 sequence motifs among different RA patients. The findings are important in the understanding of BV gene skewing and CDR3 structural characteristics among synovial infiltrating T cells of RA.

Abstract
Objective of this study was to investigate the incidence, time, location, prevention, treatment and risk factors of recurrent hemorrhage in the earlier period of cerebral hemorrhage after operation. Three hundred and twenty two patients with operations in the earlier period of cerebral hemorrhage were analyzed retrospectively. The clinical data of hemorrhage and recurrent cerebral hemorrhage groups were compared and statistically analyzed. Logistic regression analysis was applied to evaluate the function of possible factors leading to recurrent hemorrhage after operation. The incidence of recurrent hemorrhage was 21.4% in the earlier period of cerebral hemorrhage after operation. When the operation was performed after cerebral hemorrhage within 6 h, 6-12 h and 12-24 h, the incidence of recurrent hemorrhage after operation were 43.1%, 20.9%, 3.6% respectively. With regard to time of recurrent hemorrhage, the incidence was 3.1% within 12 h after operation, 15.5% between 12-24 h and just 2.8% after 24 h. Site of hemorrhage was in the basal ganglion in 92.6% of the cases. Mono-agent logistic analysis displayed that there is a significant correlation between high diastolic blood pressure, fluctuation of blood pressure after operation, taking anti-coagulant drugs for a long time, site of hemorrhage, difficult or not thorough hemostasis during operation and recurrent hemorrhage (p < 0.01). Multiple linear logistic regression analysis has shown that a remarkable diastolic blood pressure and fluctuation of blood pressure after operation are risk factors for recurrent hemorrhage. Their OR value were 10.32, 7.234. From this it is concluded that the incidence of recurrent cerebral hemorrhage after operation in the earlier period is 21.4%, which must never be ignored. The time period of 24 h after operation is a stage of high risk. Maintaining diastolic blood pressure below 85 mmHg and steadily controlling the pressure after operation are of great importance for prevention of recurrent cerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract
The effect of colonization with the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Glomus mosseae (Nicol. & Gerd.) Gerdemann & Trappe on the growth and physiology of NaCl-stressed maize plants ( Zea mays L. cv. Yedan 13) was examined in the greenhouse. Maize plants were grown in sand with 0 or 100 mM NaCl and at two phosphorus (P) (0.05 and 0.1 mM) levels for 34 days, following 34 days of non-saline pre-treatment. Mycorrhizal plants maintained higher root and shoot dry weights. Concentrations of chlorophyll, P and soluble sugars were higher than in non-mycorrhizal plants under given NaCl and P levels. Sodium concentration in roots or shoots was similar in mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal plants. Mycorrhizal plants had higher electrolyte concentrations in roots and lower electrolyte leakage from roots than non-mycorrhizal plants under given NaCl and P levels. Although plants in the low P plus AM fungus treatment and those with high P minus AM fungus had similar P concentrations, the mycorrhizal plants still had higher dry weights, soluble sugars and electrolyte concentrations in roots. Similar relationships were observed regardless of the presence or absence of salt stress. Higher soluble sugars and electrolyte concentrations in mycorrhizal plants suggested a higher osmoregulating capacity of these plants. Alleviation of salt stress of a host plant by AM colonization appears not to be a specific effect. Furthermore, higher requirement for carbohydrates by AM fungi induces higher soluble sugar accumulation in host root tissues, which is independent of improvement in plant P status and enhances resistance to salt-induced osmotic stress in the mycorrhizal plant.
