Objective To determine the effect of transcription and translation in telomeric related proteins,and synergism of progressive telomere shortening and cell cycle alteration in human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cell line,which is induced by antisense tankyrase oligonucleotide(asTANKS) combinated with antisense human telomerase reverse transcriptase(ashTERT) oligonucleotide.Methods A549 cells were randomly assigned as 3 test groups: ashTERT,ashTERT + asTANKS and asTANKS,three control groups(shTERT,sTANKS and blank).With individual intervention for different hours,the effect of transcription in hTERT mRNA was evaluated by RT-PCR,and telomerase activity was tested by ELISA-PCR,tankyrase activity was tested by Western blot as well.Moreover,telomere average length was analyzed by Q-FISH,and duration of proliferation was observed by population double test.Results Transcription in hTERT mRNA and telomerase activity for 48 hrs was inhibited obviously by ashTERT,but not by asTANKS.Progressive telomere shortening in A549 cells for 48 hrs was induced by either asTANKS or ashTERT(vs control,P

injection). At the 5th, 10th and 15th months after operation, L2, L4 bone mineral density, L2, L4 maximum bending and compressive load, the ratio of anterior and posterior heights of L3 vertebrae to average height of L2 and L4 vertebrae, and the sagittal Cobb angle of L2 and L4 vertebrae were detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The bone mineral density, maximum bending and compressive load, vertebral height ratio at different time points after operation in experimental group were higher compared with the preoperative level (P < 0.05). The sagittal Cobb angle in experimental group was smaler compared with the preoperative level (P < 0.05). In the control group, the bone mineral density, maximum bending and compressive load at different time points after operation were al higher compared with preoperative level (P < 0.05). There were no significant difference of the vertebral height ratio and sagittal Cobb angle compared with the preoperative level. The bone mineral density, maximum bending and compressive load, vertebral height ratio at different time points after operation in experimental group were higher compared with the control group (P< 0.05). The sagittal Cobb angle was smaler compared with the control group (P < 0.05). These results demonstrate that percutaneous kyphoplasty bone cement injection can better improve the bone density, carrying capacity and kyphosis of osteoporosis fractures adjacent vertebrae.

Insertional mutagenesis is a widely used method to determine the function(s) of a gene. To study the function(s) of the gene nsdAmgh in Streptomyces roseoflavus, a homologous recombination vector pSRNA2500 was structured in this paper. The recombination donor vector was then transformed into Strempomyces roseoflavus strain Men-myco-93-63 by conjugative transfer. The transformants were subjected to selection under the pressure of high temperature and appropriate antibiotics. As a result, several disrupted mutants of nsdAmgh gene, with a phenotype of Am(s)Km(r), were isolated and verified using PCR and Dot-blotting and Southern blotting hybridization methods. Functional analysis showed that the disrupted mutants of nsdAmgh had a two-fold higher inhibition against Verticillium dahlia Kleb than that of the wild strain Men-myco-93-63, which all will provide a new study route for future research about positive and negative regulator in Men-myco-93-63.

Objective:To monitor the dynamic changes in coagulation function and assess their clinical significance in patients with gas-tric cancer by using thromboelas to gram (TEG). Methods:A total of 178 patients with gastric cancer from March 2014 to May 2015 in Xinxiang Central Hospital were selected as the experimental group. The patients were grouped based on different tumor stages, inva-sion depths, and lymph node metastasis. The TEG results of all patients were dynamically monitored before and after operation, and 60 healthy persons were selected as normal control group. Blood coagulation change was analyzed by comparing the TEG test results. Results:Compared with those of the control group, the TEG parameters of the experimental group showed significantly decreased R and K values, as well as significantly increased Angle, CI, and MA values, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). In the experimental group, the K values were significantly decreased after operation, whereas Angle, MA, and CI were significantly in-creased (P<0.05). No significant changes were observed in R, LY30, and others. TEG values were significantly different in the compari-son of values for tumor patients with different stages, different tumor infiltration degrees, and with or without lymphatic metastasis. Conclusion:Blood hypercoagulability in the perioperative period was observed in patients with gastric cancer and was positively corre-lated with tumor stages, tumor infiltration degrees, and lymphatic metastasis. Dynamic monitoring of gastric cancer perioperative TEG can provide valuable information for clinical treatment, improve the safety of gastric cancer surgery, and reduce postoperative compli-cations associated with active clinical significance.

The relationships of therapeutic regime, glycemic control and quality of life with depression were observed in 193 type 2 diabetic patients. The results showed that 46.6% of the diabetic patients manifested depression in various degrees; the depression status was correlated with age or duration of diabetes; the patients under insulin treatment showed more marked depression than the other patients (P
