Conclusion The BALF4 gene peptides are successfully synthesized and epitopes with high specificity and strong immunogenicity are screened for the preparation of gp125 antigen with high specificity and sensitivity.

Objective To investigate the efifcacy of thalidomide combined with VAD in treatment of elderly multiple myeloma(MM). Methods 76 cases of elderly MM were randomly divided into two groups, control group (n=38) were treated with VAD alone while the observation group (n=38) were treated with thalidomide and VAD. Clinical efifcacy and adverse reactions in two groups were compared. Results The total effective rate in observation group was 84.21%, which was signiifcantly higher than 55.26%in control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the M protein, myeloma cells andβ2-microglobulin in observation group were (20.77±4.15)×10-2μg/mL, (12.84±2.85)×10-2μg/mL and (2.48±0.53)μg/mL, which were signiifcantly lower than before treatment and control group(P<0.05). Hemoglobin in observation group was (108.83±5.81) g/L, which was signiifcantly higher than before treatment and control group(P<0.05). The adverse reactions were nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, constipation, infection and rash and so on in two groups after treatment, and there was no signiifcant difference between two groups. Conclusion Thalidomide combined with VAD regimen has a better effect in treatment of elderly multiple myeloma than single VAD, has less adverse reactions and well tolerated.

The Rhei Radix et Rhizoma was one of the most widely used traditional Chinese medicine for its special biological activities. The content of rhein, one of its major compounds, was an important standard for the quantity control of Rhei Radix et Rhizoma. The major method used for the detection of rhein was instrumental analysis like HPLC, but it was complex, time-consuming and cannot detect large samples at the same time. The enzyme-linked imunmosorbent assay (ELISA) was accurate, reliable, simple, low costs, and of a high-throughout. Recently, it was widely used for the determination of those small molecule compounds in some traditional Chinese medicinal plants. In this study, an artificial antigen were synthesized by the carbodiimide (CDI) method. Rhein-bovine (rhein-BSA) conju gate and rhein-ovalbumin (rhein-OVA) conjugate, were produced as the immunogen and coating antigen, respectively. The conjugate and the hapten number in the conjugate were determined by UV-Vis spectrophotometry (UV). The conjugation ratio of Rhein and BSA was about 4.0:1, rhein acid and OVA was 2.6 : 1, respectively. Rhein-BSA conjugate was used to immunize Bal b/c mice to produce antiserum. The antiserum titer of the Rhein were higher than 8000 detected by ELISA. The successfully synthesized conjugate antigen rhein-BSA implies its feasibility in the establishment of fast immunoassay for the rhein content determination.

BACKGROUND:The low oxygen environment after femoral fracture and cerebral trauma wil induce series of related cytokines expression, including hypoxia-inducible factor 1αand core binding factorα1, which play key roles in regulating bone healing. However, whether the accelerated bone healing is correlated with the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1αand core binding factorα1 is stil unknown.
OBJECTIVE:To construct rat models of brain injury, to compare the expression level of hypoxia-inducible factor 1αand core binding factorα1 in femoral fracture combined with cerebral trauma rats and simple femoral fracture rats, and to assess the influence of cerebral trauma on bone healing.
METHODS:Rats were randomly divided into blank group, simple femoral fracture group and femoral fracture combined with cerebral trauma group. At 1, 2, 3 and 5 weeks after modeling, rats were executed. Bone healing was evaluated using femoral fracture end X-ray score and hematoxylin and eosin staining at cal us tissues. Besides, the expression levels of hypoxia-inducible factor 1αand core binding factorα1 of three groups were determined with immunohistochemistry.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Bone healing in the femoral fracture combined with cerebral trauma group was better than that of simple femoral fracture group. There was significant difference in the expression level of hypoxia-inducible factor 1αand core binding factorα1 between the simple femoral fracture group and femoral fracture combined with cerebral trauma group (P<0.05). At the same time, the level of simple femoral fracture group and femoral fracture combined with cerebral trauma group was significantly higher than that of blank group, and that in femoral fracture combined with cerebral trauma group was significantly higher than that of simple femoral fracture group (P<0.05). Results verified that the expression levels of hypoxia-inducible factor 1αand core binding factorα1 of rats with femoral fracture combined with cerebral trauma were significantly high, which may be the major reason why the bone healing was accelerated after fracture combined with brain injury.

The survey of traditional knowledge related to Chinese materia medica resources is the important component and one of the innovative aspects of the fourth national survey of the Chinese materia medica resources. China has rich traditional knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and the comprehensive investigation of TCM traditional knowledge aims to promote conservation and sustainable use of Chinese materia medica resources. Building upon the field work of pilot investigations, this paper introduces the essential procedures and key methods for conducting the survey of traditional knowledge related to Chinese materia medica resources. The essential procedures are as follows. First is the preparation phrase. It is important to review all relevant literature and provide training to the survey teams so that they have clear understanding of the concept of traditional knowledge and master key survey methods. Second is the field investigation phrase. When conducting field investigations, survey teams should identify the traditional knowledge holders by using the 'snowball method', record the traditional knowledge after obtaining prior informed concerned from the traditional knowledge holders. Researchers should fill out the survey forms provided by the Technical Specification of the Fourth National Survey of Chinese Materia Medica Resources. Researchers should pay particular attention to the scope of traditional knowledge and the method of inheriting the knowledge, which are the key information for traditional knowledge holders and potential users to reach mutual agreed terms to achieve benefit sharing. Third is the data compilation and analysis phrase. Researchers should try to compile and edit the TCM traditional knowledge in accordance with intellectual property rights requirements so that the information collected through the national survey can serve as the basic data for the TCM traditional knowledge database. The key methods of the survey include regional division of Chinese materia medica resources, interview of key information holders and standardization of information.' In particular, using "snowball method" can effectively identify traditional knowledge holder in the targeted regions and ensuring traditional knowledge holders receiving prior informed concerned before sharing the information with researcher to make sure the rights of traditional knowledge holders are protected. Employing right survey methods is not only the key to obtain traditional knowledge related to Chinese materia medica resources, but also the pathway to fulfill the objectives of access and benefit sharing stipulated in Convention on Biological Resources. It will promote the legal protection of TCM traditional knowledge and conservation of TCM intangible, cultural heritage.
