Objective To design a complex hepatitis C vires(HCV)=E1 antigen,and to search its application in HCV vaccine and diagnosis test.Methods Through consulting the database and widely comparison of sequences from HCV E1 of different genotype,the representative immunodominant epitope sequences were selected from all the six genotypes.Their genes were deduced according to the preference codon in E.coli and three fragments were designed to contain the six epitopes.They were chemically synthesized and cloned into pBVIL1 vector separately.The cloned fragments were conjugated together profiting from pBVIL1's property,and then a doubled pan-DR helper T cell epitopes(PADRE)gene was inserted to form a complex expression plasmid.The transformed E.coli cells with this plasmid were cultured and induced to express recombinant protein and the antigenic activity of the product was tested.Results An expressing plasmid containing 8 epitopes from HCV genotype 1a,1b,2a,3a,4a,6a and a doubled PADRE sequences was constructed successfully and the engineering E.coli transformed with this plasmid highly expressed after inducing culture at 42℃ in an inclusion manner.The immunological activity of the purified recombinsnt multi-epitope antigen shows that:(1)It can react with a great part of sera from HCV positive patients by indirect ELISA.(2)It can induce notable specific humoral immunity in injected mice.Conclusion The novel constructed expressing plasmid and its product may be useful in study of a newly HCV vaccine as well as an antigen for HCV immunoassays.

AIM: To compare the pharmacokinetics and relative bioavailability of the domestic and imported sustained-release tablets of gliclazide in healthy volunteers. METHODS:The study was performed by an four-period crossover design with singledose and multiple-dose administration. The plasmadrug concentrations of twenty male healthy volunteers were determined by liquid chromatography with mass spectrum detector method (LC-MS). RESULTS:The pharmacokinetic parameters after a single oral dose of the domestic and imported gliclazide tablets were (7.2+s 1.5) h and (6.9 +1.4) h for tmax, (13.4 ±1.2) h and (13.7 +1.3) h for t1/2, (2.4 +0.8) mg ·L-1and (2.3 ±0.6) mg· L-1 forcmax, (48 ±14)mg · h · L-1 and (48 +14) mg· h · L-1 forAUC0-60,(51+15) mg· h· L-1 and (50±14) mg· h· L-1for AUC0-∞, (22.4 ± 1.9 ) h and (22.8 ± 1.9 ) h for MRT, respectively. The steady state pharmacokinetic parameters after multiple doses of the domestic and imported gliclazide tablets were (6. 1 ± 1.4) h and (6.5+1.4) h for tmax, (4.6±0.9) mg· L-1 and (4.7±1.1) mg· L-1 for cmax, (0.23 ±0.08) mg ·L-1and (0.26±0.08) mg· L-1 forcmin, (1.6±0.3) mg·L-1 and (1.6±0.3) mg · L-1 for mean value of steady plasma-drug concentration (cav),(94±19) mg· h · L-1 and (95 ±20) mg · h · L-1forAUCss, (282 ±33)% and (283 ±43)% for degree of fluctuation DF ), respectively. The relative bioavailability of the domestic gliclazide tablet to the imported gliclazide tablet following a single and multiple dose were ( 102 ± 9) % and (99 ± 10 ) %, respectively. Main pharmacokinetic parameters between the two formulations in both single and multiples dose studies showed no statistical difference ( P >0.05 ).

OBJECTIVE:
Utilize high-resolution chromosome analysis and microarray detection to determine the genetic etiology of infertility of a 32-year old female patient.
METHODS:
The peripheral blood of the patient was cultured for high-resolution chromosome G and C banding karyotype analysis, and then 750K SNP-Array chip detection was performed.
RESULTS:
Karyotype analysis results showed that the patient's karyotype was 45,XX,-13 [7]/46,XX,r(13) (p13q34) [185]/46,XX,dic r(13;13)(p13q34;p13q34) [14]/ 47,XX,+der(13;13;13;13) (p13q34;p13q34;p13q34; p13q34), dic r(13;13) [1]/ 46,XX [3]. The microarray results showed that the patient had a 3.3 Mb deletion in the 13q34 segment of chromosome 13, which may be related to infertility.
CONCLUSION
Infertility of the patient reported in this article may be related to the deletion of chromosome segment (13q34-qter).

Bcel-2 family proteins (Bcl-x(L), Bcl-2, Mel-1 etc.) are key regulators of some life processes, including apoptosis and autophagy. They are currently considered as promising targets for developing new anti-tumor therapies. In our study, the human Bcl-2/Bcl-x(L) chimeric gene and the human/mouse Mel-1 chimeric gene were designed and cloned, and the prokaryotic expression vectors for expressing glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion proteins and histidine tag fusion proteins were constructed respectively. These two proteins as well as the GST-Bcl-x(L) fusion protein were all successfully expressed in E. coli and subsequently purified. In addition, we measured the binding of these Bcl-2 family proteins to the Bid BH3 peptide by fluorescence polarization-based assay. The dissociation constants (Kd) obtained by us were in general agreement with the data reported in literature. The Kd values of all three proteins with or without the GST tag were almost identical. All these results validate the biological functions of these Bcl-2 family proteins obtained by us. These proteins can be used in the experimental screening of small-molecule regulators of Bcl-2 family proteins in vitro.
