Objective To determine the main reproductive performance of six SPF mice and rats preserved in our laboratory, including C57BL/6, BALB/c, NIH, KM, ICR mice and SD rats.Methods Inbred mice mated with full sib and random mating.Meanwhile, closed colony animals were bred by cross circular mating.These indexes of reproductive performance were measured in the six kinds of animals during the first birth to the fourth birth, i.e.the average litter size (ALZ), average baby number reared ( ABN) and average weaning number ( AWN), and weaning rate ( WA) were calculated.Meanwhile, the initial mating age in days, initial bearing age in days, first gestation and intervals were measured.Results The ALZ of inbred mice were 6 to 7.The reproductive indexes were basically stable in the first 3 births, however, the various data were dramatically declined in the fourth birth ( P<0.05 ) .The WA of BALB/c mice were 98%to 99%, and that of C57BL/6 mice were 96%to 98%.The ALZ of closed colony animals were 12 to 15, and significantly increased in the second and third births compared with that of the first birth (P<0.05), then was significantly reduced ( P<0.05) .The WA maintained at 98%to 99%in the NIH, KM and ICR mice.In contrast, The WA of SD rats was slightly lower, reaching 95%to 97%.The initial mating age in days of mice was between 70 d to 80 d.The initial bearing age in days and first gestation of rats were less than that of inbred mice, the initial bearing age in days and first gestation of closed colony rats were 136.3 d and 27.7 d, respectively.The pregnancy interval of inbred mice was between 34 d to 40 d,the pregnancy interval of closed colony mice was between 25.5 d to 28.7 d, the pregnancy interval of rats was between 32.8 d to33.8 d.Conclusions The 6 mouse and rat strains have a higher reproductive performance, and the data obtained in this study provide a basis for commercialized production of mice and rats in southern areas of China, and for establishment of rodent experimental animal resource.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Sanyinjiao acupoint sticking with Gushen Yutai Tie on threatened abortion. Methods A total of 216 women diagnosed with threatened abortion were randomly assigned to trial group (108 cases) and control group (108 cases). Both groups were treated with TCM syndrome differentiation treatment and progesterone soft capsule, and the trial group was treated with Gushen Yutai Tie acupoint sticking at Sanyinjiao (SP6) additionally. One treatment course was five days, and both groups were treated for three courses. Vaginal bleeding and lower abdominal pain, lumbar pain, nausea and vomiting were observed, pulsatility index (PI) and resistance index (RI) of the uterine artery were detected after treatment. Results The total effective rate in the trial group was 97.22% (105/108), which was significantly higher than that of 90.74% (98/108) in the control group (P<0.05). Symptom scores in the trial group were also significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.01). PI and RI in the ineffective (pregnancy failure) group were much lower than that of effective (threatened abortions with normal outcome) group (P<0.01). Conclusion The treatment that Gushen Yutai Tie acupoint sticking at Sanyinjiao combined with TCM syndrome differentiation and progesterone soft capsule had a better effect to improve pregnancy success rate in threatened abortion. PI and RI in uterine artery could be used to evaluate the outcome of pregnancy.

Objective To screen protective antigen genes and construct the T7 phage display library from adult worms of Schistosoma japonicum.Methods Total RNA was extracted from adult worms of S.japonicum by Trizol reagent and mRNA was isolated from the total RNA.The ds cDNA was synthesized by reverse transcription using random primer.Directional EcoRⅠ/HindⅢ linkers were ligated into the ends of ds cDNA and the ds cDNA was digested with EcoRⅠand HindⅢ,which resulted in ds cDNA with EcoRⅠand HindⅢ adhering ends.The digested ds cDNA fragments longer than 300 bp in length were fractionated and ligated into T7 Select 10-3b vector.After packaging in vitro,the T7 Select 10-3b vector was transformed into BLT5403 to construct the T7 phage display cDNA library.Plaque assay and PCR were used to evaluate the library.Seven known objective genes of S.japonicum were screened by PCR to detect the representation of the library.Result Primary library capacity was 4.98?106 pfu,and the titer of amplified library was 3.85?1011 pfu/mL.The PCR identification result of 96 clones picked at random showed that recombination rate was 93.8%,in which 95.6% inserted cDNA fragments were longer than 300 bp in length.All the seven known objective genes of S.japonicum were amplified from the library.Conclusion The T7 phage display library from adult worms of Schistosoma japonicum was constructed.

Objective To look for the genes of Schistosoma japonicum related to the Schistosoma-resistance of Microtus fortis.Methods The fresh sera of Microtus fortis were used to screen a T7 phage display cDNA library from worms of Schistosoma japonicum established in our lab.The positive clones were sequenced and functionally analysed through bioinformatics.Results The specific phages binding to the sera of Microtus fortis were enriched 857-fold after three rounds of biopanning,and 58 positive clones picked at random were sequenced and 10 ESTs were obtained.BLASTn results showed that 7 ESTs had 99%-100% similarity to the genes of Shistosoma japonicum reported in GenBank and 1 EST had 82% similarity to a zinc finger protein encoden gene from Pan troglodytes.The results of these ESTs function prediction indicated most of them were involved in the regulation of gene expresion of Schistosoma japonicum.Conclusions Several target genes of Schistosoma japonicum related to the Schistosoma-resistance of Microtus fortis are obtained and those would lay foundation to expatiate the native resistance mechnism of Microtus fortis to Schistosoma japonicum.

Objective To discuss the relationship between learning adaptability and mental health in vocational nursing freshmen in Beijing.Methods Totals of 717 vocational nursing freshmen of 2012 were investigated with undergraduates' learning adaptability questionnaire (ULAQ) and symptom checklist 90 (SCL-90) respectively of their learning adaptability and mental health by cluster sampling,and general descriptive statistical analysis,t test and linear correlation analysis were used to analyze the data.Results The total score of ULAQ of 717 freshmen was (3.36 ± 0.46),in which the score of learning motivation was (3.41 ± 0.59),higher than that of learning behavior which was (3.34 ±0.54).The total score of SCL-90 was 1.00-4.72,and the average was (1.42 ± 0.49).The scores of nine factors including somatization,compulsion,interpersonal sensitivity,depression,anxiety,hostility,terror,paranoia and mental disorder were lower than those of the norm of university students,and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜0.01) except for the terror factor.The scores of SCL-90 and ULAQ showed low to moderate negative correlation(P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions The learning adaptability of vocational nursing freshmen is beyond middle level as a whole,and is related to their mental health to a certain degree.Freshmen's mental health is also influenced by other factors in addition to learning adaptability.

OBJECTIVE: To establish a new method of SNP typing. METHODS: Based on the principle of allele specific PCR and capillary electrophoresis technique, 11 diallelic SNP loci were selected and two forward primers with different length were designed for each SNP, with their 3' ends matched to the two alleles, respectively. An artificially mismatched base was also introduced into the third or fourth base in the 3' end area of the two forward primers in order to enhance the specificity of amplification. A common reverse primer was designed 100-300 bp away from the forward primers, and labeled with fluorescence. The PCR products were separated and analyzed by ABI Prism 310 Genetic Analyzer after all of the 11 SNPs were multiply amplified. RESULTS: A single product peak was observed while the SNP was homozygous, and two product peaks with different height were observed while the SNP was heterozygous. The length of PCR products was different with the different SNPs. According to the length of the products and the number of the product peaks, the genotypes of the 11 SNPs can simultaneously be analyzed, and the results were in accordance with the direct sequencing. CONCLUSION Fragment length discrepant allele specific fluorescence labeled multi-PCR (FLDASFLM-PCR) is a simple, rapid and efficient new method for SNP typing.
