The endophytic bacterum 01-144 was marked by using the method of antib iotic-resistance. Colonization of 01-144 in tomato root and stem was investig ate d. Result showed that 01-144 colonized in the root and stem and the colonizing a bility in the root was stronger than in the stem after dipping seed or watering root treatmeat, It was also found that this bacterium could more easly colonized in the low stem than in the upper stem. The population fluctuation of 01-144 ha d the same trend in both root and stem i.e.first increased then decreasing, an d the fluctuation in the root was more even than in the stem.

Objective To investigate the effect of clusterin on the cytobiological features of bladder cancer EJ cells. Methods EJ cells were transfected using lipofectine-induced antisense oligonucleotide of clusterin,and their expression was blocked.The biological behaviors of EJ cells,such as proliferation,apoptosis and necrosis,were observed. Results Compared with the sense group which were transfected by sense oligonucleotide of clusterin,the antisense group which were transfected by antisense oligonucleotide of clusterin exprerienced increase in apoptosis of EJ cells,reaching the peak on day 5 with apoptosis rate of 80%.The difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant ( P

Objective To test the reliability and validity of self-management instrument for person with schizophrenia.Methods The instrument was psychometrically tested by using 396 people with schizophrenia among 8 mental health service centers in Beijing.The instrument was test by internal consistency analysis,test-retest reliability,exploratory factor analysis,confirmed factor analysis,known-groups validity.Results The Cronbach α coefficient of instrument was 0.96,Pearson coefficient was 0.791.Factor analysis of the instrument resulted in six factors:medication compliance,medication management,symptom management,maintain daily life and social functioning,manage health recourse and support,and self-efficacy.The six-factor solution accounted for 61.70% of the total variance.The results also showed that the newly developed instrument was positively correlated with PIH.The results also demonstrated that the instrument could discriminate patients' self-management ability according to their living status,work status,education background,and financial burden.Conclusion The newly developed instrument has adequate psychometric properties and may be useful in intervention program and assessing self-management in individuals with schizophrenia.

Objective To study the influence of excisional biopsy on detection rate of sentinel lymph node biopsy through methylene blue in breast cancer.Methods A review of 76 patients with clinical stage T1-2N0M0 breast cancer who had a successful sentinel lymph node biopsy at the Affiliated Nanhai Hospital of Southern Medical University between July 2009 to July 2014 was analyzed.There were 37 patients received sentinel lymph node biopsy directly.And 39 patients received sentinel lymph node biopsy after a excisional biopsy to primary lesion.We compare the difference of detection rate of sentinel lymph node between the two groups.Results Seventy cases had been found sentinel lymph node successfully in a total of 76 patients and the detection rate is 92.1%.There were 34 cases had sentinel lymph node biopsy in successfully in group of excisional biopsy and the detection rate is 87.2%.There were 36 cases had sentinel lymph node biopsy in successfully in group of needle core biopsy and the detection rate is 97.3%.This difference,however,was not statistically significant between the two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusions The influence of excisional biopsy on detection rate of sentinel lymph node biopsy through methylene blue in breast cancer is not significant.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of minimal flap surgery in the treatment sub-gingival caries ( class V cavities) . Methods:57 teeth(4 incisors, 13 canines, 38 premolars and 2 molars) with sub-gingival caries in 42 patients were treated by com-bined gingival flap surgery. Sub-gingival caries was fully exposed and the lesion was fully removed, then the deffects were filled with flowing resin. Before operation, 6 and 12 months after treatment, PD, SBI and gingival recession were examined. Results:Success rate of the treatment was 98. 25%. No statistically significant difference of the indexes was found during 12-month-follow up. Conclu-sion:Minimal flap surgery is effective for the treatment of sub-gingival caries ( class V cavities) .

Objective To simulate the chemical microenvironment of traumatic brain injury (TBI) under mild hypothermia, and investigate the effect of such microenvironment on umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs) in vitro.Methods Eighteen SD rats were allocated to shamoperated group, TBI group and mild hypothermia group according to the random number table, with 6 rats per group.Rat models of TBI were made by electric cortical contusion impactor.After systemic mild hypothermia (33℃) for 4 h, brain tissue homogenate extracts were harvested.Polyacrylamide gels mimicking the elastic modulus of brain were manufactured.Human UCMSCs were isolated and cultured on the gels, added with brain tissue extracts from each group.After 24 h, the apoptosis level of UCMSCs was checked, and the medium was changed with normal one.Cell growth and morphological changes in each group were given dynamic observation.Seven days later, cell immunofluorescence was implemented, with the differentiation level of each group estimated.Results Apoptotic rate in TBI group was 73.47%,significantly higher than 10.42% in sham-operated group (P <0.01).While the apoptotic rate was 28.57% in mild hypothermia group, indicating mild hypothermia significantly reversed the apoptosis of cells in TBI group (P < 0.01).Cell immunofluorescence demonstrated rate of neuronal differentiation of UCMSCs in sham-operated group, TBI group and mild hypothermia group was 16.48%, 2.59% and 11.83% respectively.Mild hypothermia resulted in significantly improved neuronal differentiation of UCMSCs after TBI (P < 0.05).Conclusions More apoptosis and lower neuronal differentiation ability are observed in UCMSCs in the chemical microenvironment after TBI.However, mild hypothermia significantly reverses the elevation of apoptosis and restores the neuronal differentiation capacity of UCMSCs after TBI.
