Objective To identify the genotype of merozoite surface protein 1 (MSP1) of Plasmodium falciparum isolates from Hainan Province. Methods Nested PCR was applied to amplify the MSP1 of Blocks 2 and 3 Plasmodium falciparum isolates from Hainan Province. Two allelic family representitive gene fragments were sequenced.Results From 36 out of 39 blood samples from Plasmodium falciparum patients, 44 gene fragments of blocks 2 and 3 of the MSP1 were amplified, of which the MAD20 type allele was dominant(75%). followed by K1 type allele. No RO33 type allele was found. The mixed infection rate of the two different allelic type was 19 4%. Sequence analysis showed that the sequences of MAD20 and K1 type isolates from Hainan Province were highly homologous to that of the MAD20 and K1 allelic prototypes.Conclusion Two principal allelic types of MSP1 gene, MAD20 and K1 type, exist in malaria endemic areas in Hainan Province, the MAD20 type being the dominant.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the curative effect of reconstruction of the hand and foot defects with bones and tendons exposure using free medial sural artery perforator flap(MSAP). MethodsRadiographs of 2 cadavers injected with a modified lead oxide-gelatin mixture were digitally analyzed. Between April 2007 and December 2010, thirty-four patients with soft tissue defects in the distal limb were treated with the free MSAP flap transplantation. The sizes of the defect ranged 6 cm × 4 cm-13 cm × 8 cm, and the flaps ranged 7 cm× 5 cm-14 cm × 9 cm. These clinical cases included 25 hands and 9 feet, all of them with bones and tendons exposure.In these defects,twenty-two were clean,twelve got infections.In our cases, twenty-three flaps were nourished with single perforator vessel and else 11 with two;perforator vessel fifteen flaps were dissected one superficial vein to anastomose with that of the recipient sites in addition to accompanying vein anastomosis;The sensation of 9 flaps recovered the hands were reconstructed with cutaneous nerve anastomosis. ResultsA partition of the calf skin blood vessels,and three-dimensional reconstruction image of the sural artery were obtained.All flaps survived,five of them appeared partially violet and bubbles. Followed up 6-21 months, the cosmetic results were satisfactory and without apparent bulkiness.The flap colors were similar to recipient sites. The flap senses reconstructed with neural anastomosis recover to S2-S3. ConclusionThe new flap is very suitable to repair the soft tissue defect in the distal limbs,because the fairly constant perforator vessel,the reliable blood supply and the cosmetic shape of the MSAP flap are all advantages of it in addition to no damage to low leg chief artery and gastrocnemius.

Objective To compare the torque resistance effect with different types of reconstruction of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) dislocation,in order to explore biomechanical basis for clinical practice.Methods Six adult cadaver forearm were used,including 4 males and 2 females.The average death age was 64.9 years (range,36-78 years).Three were right side,3 were left side.The DRUJ dislocation model was made after the standardized resection of the palmar and dorsal DRUJ ligament.Clinic reconstruction methods of the DRUJ include trans-bone tunnel renconstruction (intra-articular reconstruction) and Looptie up reconstruction (extra-articular reconstruction).The mechanical properties as follows:torque velocity:5°/min,maximum torque angulation:90°,maximum torsion force:1 N· mm.Each limb was detected for the torque mechanic under four conditions:normal,DRUJ dislocation,intra-articular reconstruction and extra-articular reconstruction.Results Each limb was inspected for intact mechanic baseline and without the visual damage to the bone.The average pronation torque resistance on normal condition was (0.44±0.10) N·mm,(0.37±0.09) N·mm on DRUJ dislocation group,(0.45±0.09) N-mm on intra-articular reconstruction group,and (0.42±0.09) N·nun on extra-articular reconstruction group.Pronation torque resistance of DRUJ dislocation group was apparently lower than the normal group (t=2.043,P=-0.047).The pronation torque resistance reconstruction group had no significant difference with normal group.The average supination torque resistance on normal condition was (0.56±0.16) N·mm,while on DRUJ dislocation group was (0.42±0.11) N-mm,on intra-articular reconstruction group was (0.54±0.16) N·mm,on extra-articular reconstruction group was (0.51±0.13) N·mm.There were no apparent differences among four groups.Conclusion Both internal and external reconstruction could recover the rotation stability and normalize the torque resistance,without statistical difference.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of reparing the complicated soft tissue defects of limbs with free thoracodorsal artery perforator (TDAP) flaps.Methods From April,2009 to March,2014,19 limbs (including 8 upper limbs and 11 lower limbs) soft tissue defects with bone and tendon exposure were repaired with free TDAP flaps in the secondary stage.There were 12 thoracodorsal artery perforator flaps,5 polyfoliate perforator flaps,1 chimeric muscle flap,and 1 chimeric muscle polyfoliate flap.The sizes of the flaps ranged from 5.0 cm×6.0cm-20.0 cm×l 1.0 cm.Seventeen wounds of the dornor site were closed directly,and the other 2 were closed with skin grafts.Results Sixteen flaps survived successfully.Two flaps had venous congestion and survived at last after taking the stitches out.One flap had partial necrosis and repaired by skin graft finally.The clinical results were satisfactory after 12-18 months following-up,and the scars of the dornor sites of all but 3 patients were not obvious.All the shoulder function were normal.Conclusion The TDAP flap has dependable blood supply,good texture,less dornor site morbility.The polyfoliate TDAP flap can be used for repairing irregular defect.The chimeric latissimus TDAP flap can be used for the function reconstruction.The free TDAP flap is suited for repairing soft tissue defects of the limbs.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) dorsal ligament reconstruction using extensor retinaculum transposition with triagular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) repair and dorsal capsuloplasty for chronic DRUJ dorsal instability.Methods From October 2007 to July 2016,data of 18 patients (11 men and 7 women with a mean age of 37.4 years) were retrospectively analyzed who underwent DRUJ dorsal ligament reconstruction with extensor retinaculum transposition,DRUJ dorsal capsuloplasty,and TFCC repair for DRUJ dorsal instability.The tissue flap of extensor retinaculum was fixed at the ulnar edge of distal radius by two micro anchors after TFCC repair and dorsal capsuloplasty of the DRUJ capsule.X-ray examination of wrist was performed for all the patients after operation to identify the reduction of DRUJ.The wrist range of flexion and extension,the forearm range of rotation,and the grip strength of hand were measured.Modified Mayo wrist scores,DASH scores and visual analogue scale (VAS) were used to evaluate the function and pain of wrist and upper extremity.Results 18 patients were followed up for 12-70 months with an average period of 34 months.The stability of the DRUJ was restored in 16 patients.The other 2 cases wore long arm splint for 6 weeks after operation due to the residual instability of the DRUJ,after that the instability of DURJ were improved to grade I.The flexion and extension of wrist,the rotation of forearm were improved,but there were no significant difference comparing to those of pre-operation.The VAS,modified Mayo and DASH scores,grip strength of hand were significantly improved from preoperative 4.2±1.1,67.4±11.2,51.3±14.2,16.3±3.7 kg to postoperative 0.2±0.5,83.9±11.6,15.9±3.2,24.9±6.4 kg at the latest follow-up.Conclusion Extensor retinaculum transposition with TFCC repair and DRUJ dorsal capsuloplasty can effectively relieve pain and recovery stability of DRUJ,which was an effective method for chronic DRUJ dorsal instability.

Gene expression technology has made great progress with the continuous developments and researches of molecular biology. Though many systems to produce recombinant proteins have been studied, none of them is available so far to satisfy the needs completely. With the increasing demands of bioactive peptides and protein drugs, expression quantity and correct posttranslational folding and modifications are also needed under the circumstance which can make proteins more close to native conformation and higher activity and stability. Based on our previous work, we summarized the factors affecting the folding and modifications of recombinant proteins correctly from five aspects, including expression system and hosts, secretory expression, coexpression, fusion expression, and the culture conditions, as well as improvement strategies.
