Abstract: Objective To construct a shuttle vector pHT315-AaCPR100A with two spore-producing-dependent promoters and the target gene AaCPR100A in Escherichia coli-Bacillus thuringiensis. Methods The forward promoter of Cry3A, named Pro-1 (+), was amplified by PCR using pSVP27A plasmid as the template, and the target gene AaCPR100A was amplified using Aedes aegypti RNA reverse conversion cDNA as the template. The plasmid pHT315 was linearized by digestion with Hind Ⅲ and Sal Ⅰ. The forward promoter and the target gene were inserted into the linearized vector pHT315 successively by in-fusion cloning according to the transcription direction. The synthesized plasmid containing the Cry3A reverse promoter sequence was used as the template, and the Pro-1 (-) reverse promoter was amplified by PCR. The intermediate vector containing the forward promoter and the target gene was linearized by EcoR I restriction enzyme, and the reverse promoter was inserted downstream of the target gene by in-fusion cloning in the direction of transcription. Results By agarose gel electrophoresis, the forward promoter, target gene AaCPR100A and reverse promoter bands were clear and of good quality, which could be used for in-fusion cloning experiments. The two spore-producing-dependent promoters and target gene fragments were connected by In-fusion cloning. The recombinant vector pHT315-AaCPR100A was verified by PCR. The forward promoter, target gene fragment and reverse promoter were successfully amplified in the recombinant vector. Nucleotide sequencing verified that the sequencing results of the bidirectional promoter sequence and the target gene sequence were basically consistent with the sequence alignment results, which met the requirements of the construction of vector elements and proved that the recombinant vector was successfully constructed. Conclusions Based on the above results, this study proves that the recombinant shuttle vector with two spore-producing-dependent promoters can be successfully constructed by in-fusion cloning technology, laying the foundation for the construction of engineered Bacillus thuringiensis expressing dsRNA of AaCPR100A.

The comparative analysis of the biological characterization and the genetic background study of EV71 circulating strains is commonly recognized as basic work necessary for development of an effective EV71 vaccine. In this study, we sequenced five EV71 circulating strains, isolated from Fuyang, Hefei, Kunming and Shenzhen city of China and named them FY-23, FY-22, H44, K9 and S1 respectively. The sequence alignment demonstrated their genotypes be C4. The genetic distance of the VP1 gene from these isolates suggested that they were highly co-related with genetic identity similar to other previously reported EV71 strains in China. Additionally, these strains were identified to display some obvious proliferation dynamics and plaque morphology when propagated in Vero cells. However, a distinctive difference in pathogenic ability in neonatal mice was found. Some differences in cross neutralization test & immunogenic analysis were also found. All these results are related to the biological characterization of circulating EV71 strains in China and aid in the development of an EV71 vaccine in the future.

OBJECTIVESeed dormancy mechanisms, breaking dormancy and the optimal germinating conditions were studied to improve reproductive efficiency and quality standard of Pseudostellaria heterophylla.
METHODThe P. heterophylla seeds were stratified into wettish sand for 65 days under the temperature of -2-3 degrees C, embryo length and germination dynamic change of seeds were measured in prophase every other 10 days and in middle every other 5 days. The influences on seed germination and seedling growth under different temperatures, germination beds were investigated.
RESULTThe P. heterophylla seeds embryo morphology was unchanged in stratification. The seeds could not germinate at stratification within the first 35 days. The germination rate and germination energy of seeds increased with the stratification time after 35 days. Germination rate, germination energy, plant height and fresh weight under the 10 degrees C were significantly higher than those under other temperatures. Germination rate, germination energy, plant height, fresh weight and dry weight of plant in sand bed were higher than those of plant in other beds, and seed mildew rate and abnormal seedling proportion of plant in sand bed were less than those of plant in other beds.
CONCLUSIONThe dormancy of P. heterophylla seeds is mainly the physiological post-maturation. The optimal germination conditions of seeds is 10 degrees C the culture of sand. The dormancy was broke under -2-3 degrees C of wettish sand for 45-50 days in practice.

Objective To study the mechanism of urinary Kallidinogenase combined with aspirin in treat-ment of acute cerebral infarction. Methods Eighty-six patients with acute cerebral infarction were randomly divid-ed into the observation group(n=43)and the control group(n=43).The observation group was treated with uri-nary Kallidinogenase combined with aspirin,while the control group was treated only with aspirin.Two weeks after the treatment,variables of hemorheology,serum Hcy,hs-CRP,VEGF,IL-6,Cys-C,neurological deficit(NI-HSS)and daily living ability(ADL)were compared between the two groups. Results After treatment,the serum Hcy,hs-CRP,VEGF,Cys-C,IL-6 levels,the NIHSS and ADL in the observation group were significantly better improved than those of the control group(P<0.05).The clinical efficacy in the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group[95.35%(41/43)vs 74.42%(32/43)](P<0.05).Conclusion Urinary Kal-lidinogenase combined with aspirin is more effective in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction. The mechanism may be related to the early improvements of serum Hcy,hs-CRP,VEGF,Cys-C and IL-6 expression.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and mechanism of static progressive stretch (SPS) with different parameters in the treatment of stiff knee in rats.Methods:Fifty-six male 8-week SD rats were randomly divided into an operation group ( n=48) and a blank group ( n=8, normal feeding rats without any treatment). The knee joints of the rats in the operation group were fixed with Kirschner wire for 4 weeks to create models of right knee flexion stiffness. The 42 rats with successful modeling were randomly divided into 6 groups ( n=7): the model group was executed and sampled after successful modeling, the spontaneous recovery group was not given any treatment after successful modeling, group T1 was given SPS treatment for 20 min once per day, group T2 was given SPS treatment for 30 min once per day, group T3 was given SPS treatment for 20 min once every 2 days, and group T4 was given SPS treatment for 30 min once every 2 days. After 16 days, the range of knee motion, number of myofibroblasts, and positive proportion of transforming growth factor- β1 (TGF- β1) in the joint capsule were detected and compared between groups. Results:The ranges of knee motion in the spontaneous recovery group and the 4 SPS treatment groups were significantly greater than those before treatment ( P<0.05), and the improvements in the range of knee motion in the 4 SPS treatment groups were significantly greater than that in the spontaneous recovery group ( P<0.05). The range of knee motion in group T2 (112.29°±1.89°) was improved the most significantly. The number of myofibroblasts was (23.72±10.75)/HP, which was significantly smaller than that in T3 group [(55.72±33.56)/HP] or in T4 group [(50.72±33.34)/HP] ( P<0.05). The positive proportions of TGF- β1 in the joint capsule in the 4 SPS treatment groups were significantly lower than that in the model group, and the positive proportion of TGF- β1 in the joint capsule in group T2 (0.51%±0.38%) was significantly lower than those in group T3 and T4 ( P<0.05). Conclusions:As SPS treatment can reduce the expression of TGF- β1 in the joint and inhibit the excessive proliferation of myofibroblasts to alleviate the pathological changes in a stiff knee, it has a significant effect on the stiff knee in rats. The SPS treatment for 30 minutes and once per day may lead to the best efficacy.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of temperature on the stability of intermediate and final products of inactivated enterovirus 71 vaccine, which was prepared in human diploid cells.
METHODSThe different batches of harvest viral cultures, the vaccine stock solutions and the final productions of inactivated enterovirus 71 vaccine were stored at different temperatures. The samples of viral culture stored at -20°C or 4°C were harvested at 0, 6, 12 and 24 months later. The samples of vaccine stock solutions stored at -20°C were harvested at 0, 6, 12 and 24 months later, and that stored at 4°C were harvested at 0, 1, 3, 6 and 12 months later. The samples of finial products were harvested at different time points (0, 6, 12 and 24 months for storing at 4°C; 0, 7, 14, 28, 42 and 60 d for storing at 25°C; 0, 3, 7, 14 and 21 d for storing at 37°C). The viral titer, antigen content, antigen purity, endotoxin content, effectiveness, pH and appearance of samples were determined, respectively. A total of 1 800 BLAB/c mice were immunized by vaccine and 150 control mice were injected by diluents without antigen via intraperitoneal. The tail vein blood (500 µl per mouse) from 1 950 mice were harvested after 4 weeks post injected. The neutralization antibody titers of the serum were tested to calculate the half effective dose (ED50) of final products. All results were analyzed using analysis of variance to compare the differences of the above indexes.
RESULTSThe viral titers of harvest viral culture of inactivated EV71 vaccine were (6.67 ± 0.13), (6.56 ± 0.09), (6.52 ± 0.04), (6.39 ± 0.16) lgCCID50/ml (CCID50, the half cell culture infective dose) after 0, 6, 12 and 24 months storage at -20°C; and (6.67 ± 0.13), (6.41 ± 0.13), (6.19 ± 0.18), (5.97 ± 0.09) lgCCID50/ml at 4°C. The viral titers reduced with time (F = 9.81 or 44.16, P < 0.05). The antigen contents of the vaccine stock solution were maintained at (3 626.67 ± 1 382.56) EU/ml within 3 months at 4°C, but were (2 080.00 ± 876.36), (951.17 ± 346.35) EU/ml at 6 and 12 months, respectively. The ED50 of the final production were (31.00 ± 2.71), (32.93 ± 3.22), (39.37 ± 3.44) and (46.04 ± 3.25) EU/ml after 0, 6, 12 and 24 months storage at 4 °C, but were (31.00 ± 2.71), (32.23 ± 2.66), (34.70 ± 1.77), (40.04 ± 2.10), (47.78 ± 1.93) and (56.97 ± 0.50) EU/ml at 0, 7, 14, 28, 42 and 60 days at 25°C, and were (31.00 ± 0.00), (36.20 ± 0.00), (41.87 ± 0.50), (53.25 ± 0.50) and (64.84 ± 0.58) EU/ml at 0, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days at 37°C, respectively. The ED50 had increased with the time by and had significantly differences compared with the beginning level (F = 28.49, 215.15 or 156.12, P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThere is a good stability of the intermediate and final productions of inactivated enterovirus 71 (EV71) vaccines, within 24 months at -20°C or 6 months at 4°C storage for viral culture, 24 months at -20°C or 3 months at 4°C storage for stock solution and 24 months at 4°C or 28 d at 25°C or 7 d at 37°C storage for finial vaccine.
