Objective To explore the diagnostic value of 64 layers spiral CT for gastric carcinoma .Methods The 87 patients (primarily diagnosed gastric carcinoma )were studied and scanned under 64 layers spiral CT including plain scans and enhanced scans respectively .The source images were reconstructed using the technique of multilane volume reconstruction (MPVR) and CT virtual endoscopy (CTVE) and conducting TNM stage ,then compared to histopathology results after surgery .Results 85 out of 87 patients with gastric carcinoma were diagnosed by CT .Detection rate of multi-detector CT(MDCT) for gastric cancer was 97 .7% , while the early stage and advanced stage gastric carcinoma were 66 .7% and 100% respectively .The accuracies of 64 layers spiral CT for the T stage ,the N stage and the M stage of the gastric carcinoma were 83 .9% ,72 .4% and 92 .0% respectively .Conclusion 64 layers spiral CT could be helpful for the diagnosis of gastric carcinoma and TNM stage .It might play great roles for the diag-nosis and treatment of gastric carcinoma .

To obtain recombinant human β2-microglobulin (rhβ2M) with properties of good solubility and high purity from E. coli, prokaryotic expression conditions were optimized and protein purification was performed in this study. After testing the effect of different IPTG concentrations, temperatures and induction times on the production of rhβ2M, the optimum expression conditions were determined, i. e. joining IPTG to final concentration being 0.8 mmol/L and inducing time 6 h and at temperature of 25 degrees C. Under the optimum induction conditions, the ratio of soluble rhβ2M to soluble bacterial protein was 63.7%. After purified by Ni Sepharose 6 Fast Flow, the purity of rhβ2M achieved a greater value of 95%. Western blot analysis revealed that rhβ2M possessed the antigen property that specifically interacted with anti-β2M antibody.

Objective To explore the inhibitory effects of Corilagin on the production of proinflammatory cytokines in microglia induced by radiation. Methods The cytotoxicity of Corilagin was measured by MTT assay. Microglia BV-2 cells were irradiated 0 or 32 Gy after pretreated with Corilagin for 12 hours. Realtime-PCR was used to detect the mRNA levels of inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1β,TNF-α on several time-points. The content of nitric oxide (NO) was determined with nitrate reductase method. The translocation of NF-κB was measured by Western blot and immunocytochemical stain.Confocal microscopy was used to observe the expression of Iba-1 and Nemo. Results No cytotoxicity was detected on BV-2 cells with 1-10 μg/ml Corilagin. Iba-1 expression in microglia cells was activated by irradiation, the expression levels of inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1β, TNF-α and NO were also elevated. Whereas, the production of IL-1 β, TNF-α in activated microglia cells was significantly inhibited with 5 μg/mL corilagin ( tIL-1β = 6. 341, tTNF-α = 3.41 1, tNO = 3. 134, P ＜ 0. 05 ). Corilagin significantly inhibited the expression of Nemo and the translocation of NF-κB p65. Conclusion Corilagin could inhibit the activation of irradiated microglia cells and down-regulate the expression of inflammatory cytokines, via inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway.

AIM:To investigate the role of heat shock protein 70(HSP70)in hepatitis B virus (HBV) replica-tion.METHODS:The effect of HBV replication on the expression of HSP 70 was analyzed by RT-qPCR.The overexpres-sion efficiency of HSP70 was confirmed by Western blot .The effect of HSP70 overexpression on HBV DNA replicative in-termediates was analyzed by RT-qPCR and Southern blot .The effects of HSP70 overexpression on the expression level of HBV 3.5 kb mRNA and HBV core protein were measured by RT-qPCR and Western blot, respectively.The Effect of HSP70 overexpression on HBV promoter activity was detected by dual luciferase reporter system .RESULTS: The mRNA levels of HSP70 were inhibited by HBV replication .Overexpression of HSP70 repressed the expression of HBV DNA repli-cative intermediates, 3.5 kb mRNA and core protein, as well as HBV core promoter activity .CONCLUSION:HBV rep-lication inhibits the expression of HSP70.Overexpression of HSP70 represses HBV replication.These data suggest that HSP70 repressed HBV replication by inhibiting HBV core promoter activity .

The top-level design and training system of standardized training for residents has been basically completed in China, and now is gradually transiting to connotation construction and quality improvement, with the emphasis on post competency and quality as the core. There are discrepancies in clinical ability among general practice residents of different categories, so the step-up training mode should be adapted for set up and implement of phased training objectives to achieve the overall goal of training qualified general practitioners. The step-up training based on the framework of entrustable professional activities(EPAs)can quantitatively and qualitatively evaluate the competency of general practice residents and continuously track it, so that to ensure the competency of residents. This study has developed assessment item pools of EPAs-based step-up training for general practice residents through literature review and focus group discussion, and proposed implementation plans, and explored the application of EPAs in the step-up training of general practice residents.

Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of discordant lymphoma. Methods: The clinical data of one patient with discordant lymphoma at the PLA Strategic Support Force Characteristic Medical Center were retrospectively analyzed, and the related literatures were reviewed. Results: The patient was treated for thrombocytopenia and the examination showed splenomegaly. After hormone treatment, the platelet rebounded and thrombocytopenia occurred during hormone reduction. Splenectomy was performed. Postoperative pathological diagnosis of splenic marginal lymphoma was made and observed. Axillary lymph node enlargement occurred nine months later. Pathological diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma was made by using lymph node biopsy, and the disease condition was alleviated after immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy. Conclusions Discordant lymphoma is rare and shows no special clinical manifestations. Its diagnosis should rely on pathological examination. Immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy may be more effective.
