Life science is based on an experimental basis, so the basic experimental teaching for biological and medical graduates is very important. Targeted basic experimental teaching content can help biological and medical graduates lay a solid experiment foundation and promote them to fol-low the development of cutting-edge bioscience.The basic experimental teaching content for biological graduate is set up into four experimental categories uniformly: molecular biology, proteomics experi-ments, bioinformatics experiments and large equipment use. Each category is further set into three experimental projects: validation experiments, comprehensive experiments and independent research experiment. By increasing the degree of openness of large instruments and equipment, improving teaching methods and perfecting appraisal methods, ggraduates' experimental skills, research ability and innovation ability are trained, and the quality of experimental teaching has been improved.

Objective To probe into the clinical value of left atrial(LA) volme tracking method (LAVT) on the assessment of left atrial function in patients with hypertension. Methods Thirty-one patients with hypertension and 31 control subjects were involved. Images of apical two-chamber and four-chamber views were obtained by two-dimensional echocardiography. LA maximal volume (LAVmax), LA minimal volume (LAVmin), LA presystolic volume (LAVpre), systolic LA filling rate (dv/dtS), early diastolic LA emptying rate (dv/dtE) and late diastolic LA emptying rate (dv/dtA) were derived using LAVT. LA passive emptying volume(LAVp), LA passive emptying fraction(LAVpEF), LA active emptying volume(LAVa), LA active emptying fraction (LAVaEF), LA total emptying volume (LAVt), LA total emptying fraction(LAVtEF) were calculated. All volume measurements were corrected to body surface area (LAVI). Results There were significant differences in the LAVImax, LAVImin, LAVIpre, LAVpEF, LAVIa, LAVIt,dv/dtS, dv/dtA between hypertensive patients and control subjects(P <0.05~0.001), but no significant differences were found in the LAVp, LAVaEF, LAVtEF,dv/dtE between the two groups. The LAVImax has shown significant positive correlation with LAVIp, LAVIa and LAVIt(r = 0.588~0.812, P <0.001). LAVaEF has shown positive correlation with the LAVtEF(r = 0.833, P<0.001), whereas LAVpEF has not(r = 0.420, P <0.01). There was a significant positive correlation with LAVImax and LAVIpre(r = 0.908, P <0.001), LAVIpre and LAVIa(r = 0.689, P <0.001) ,dv/dtE and LAVIp(r = 0.690, P <0.001),dv/dtA and LAVIa(r = 0.600, P <0.001). Conclusions In hypertensive patients,left atrial reservoir function and booster pump function increase, while left atrial conduit function decreases. LAVT has a potential ability to evaluate left atrial function.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the application of prescription comment software in our hospital. METHODS:552 pre-scriptions were evaluated by pharmacist A,B and software,and the Kappa values were calculated to evaluate the reliability of the software. The results of comment by pharmacist B and by software were combined (serial test and parallel test),and then com-pared with the results of comment by pharmacist A. The sensitivity,specificity and Youden's index were calculated to evaluate the reliability of the software. The comment results of 552 prescriptions by pharmacist A for twice were compared to calculate Kappa value,and it was used to evaluate the comment consistency of pharmacist A. RESULTS:The pharmacist A,B comment results and software comment results showed poor consistency,and Kappa value were 0.020 2 and 0.002 0,with significant difference (P<0.001);pharmacist A comment results had strongest consistency with pharmacist B comment results,and Kappa value was 0.843 0,with no significant difference(0.1

OBJECTIVE:To study relative bioavailability of dauricine self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) in rats. METHODS:12 rats were randomly divided into dauricine SMEDDS group (20 mg/kg) and dauricine solution group (50 mg/kg),6 rats in each group. They were given relevant medicine intragastrically. Then,0.3 ml plasma was collected from orbital venous plexus before medication and 0.167,0.333,0.5,0.75,1,2,4,8,12,24,36 h after medication. The plasma concentration of da- uricine was determined by HPLC-MS/MS,and DAS 3.0 was used to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters and evaluate the relative bioavailability of dauricine with dauricine SMEDDS. RESULTS:The linear range of dauricine in plasma were 2.12-424 ng/ml (r=0.999 9);RSDs of intra-day and inter-day were all lower than 10%. Pharmacokinetic parameters of dauricine solution and dau-ricine SMEDDS were that cmax were(126.3±37.4)ng/ml and(179.6±51.5)ng/ml;t1/2 were(11.48±4.58)and(21.79±6.59)h;AUC0-t were (1 963.5±638.3)ng·h/ml and(2 535.8±739.5)ng·h/ml;AUC0-∞ were(2 256.3±703.5)ng·h/ml and(2 854.6± 768.7)ng·h/ml,respectively. The relative bioavailability of dauricine SMEDDS were 323% and 316% by calculating with AUC0-t and AUC0-∞,respectively. CONCLUSIONS:Intragastric administration of dauricine SMEDDS can improve relative bioavailability of dauricine significantly.

Aim To study the effect of high salt diet during pregnancy on the development of renal vessels in offspring rats and its mechanism.Methods Natural pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into high-salt group and control group.The pregnant rats in the high-salt group were given high-salt diet of 8% NaCl content , while the control group normal diet with 1% NaCl content.In both groups, pregnant rats were given normal drinking water.After delivery, all mothers returned to normal diet and all neonatal rats were breast-fed until one month old.The adult male off springs were used as experimental animals.The vessel tone of renal interlobar arteries and electrophysiological behavior of single vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) were detected respectively.Results The contractile response of renal arteries to phenylephrine(Phe) in high-salt group was stronger than that in the control group(P<0.05).The effect of protein kinase C(PKC) non selective blocker GF109203X on Phe-induced contraction in two groups also showed significant difference(P<0.05).In electrophysiology experiments, Phe inhibited high-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channel(BK channel) currents in renal arteriolar smooth muscle cells in two groups, and the inhibitory effect was more pronounced in high-salt offsprings (P<0.05).GF109203X could eliminate the response of Phe on BK currents in both groups(P>0.05).Conclusions High-salt diet during pregnancy could increase the sensitivity of renal interlobar arterial contractile response to Phe in adult male offsprings, which is associated with PKC-mediated BK channels pathway.Maternal high-salt diet during pregnancy may increase the risk of renal vascular diseases in adult offsprings.

Background Replase of uveitis is a primary cause of vision damage.To predict recurrentassociated factors for uveitis is very critical for the prevention and management of uveitis.Objective This study was to explore the risk factors of recurrent uveitis and establish the prediction model of recurrent uveitis.Methods Clinical data of recurrent uveitis patients who were diagnosed in Renhe Hospital of Three Gorges University from July 1,2010 to June 30,2011 were retrospectively reviewed.The demography characteristics of the patients were collected and the disease was followed-up under the informed consent.Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the disease recurrence rate and to plot relapse-free survival curve at different levels of predictive factors.Multivariate Cox proportional hazards model was used to select independent risk factors of relapse and establish the prediction model for recurrent uveitis.Results Total 825 cases of recurrent uveitis were included and followed up for 1 month to 38 months,with a median following-up time of 16 months.Relapse of uveitis was identified in 149 cases (18.1％)during the following-up duration.The relapse-free survival time was from 1 month to 38 months,and the 1-,2-and 3-year cumulative recurrence-free survival rates were 87.3％,82.8％ and 80.9％.Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that immunosuppression withdrawal(X1) (β =0.940,Waldx2 =12.018,P =0.001),oral steroid withdrawal (X2) (β =1.334,Wald x2 =18.450,P ＜ 0.001),colds (X3) (β =0.642,Wald x2 =11.988,P =0.001),work and study stress(X4) (β=0.285,Wald x2 =4.925,P=0.026) and excessive alcohol and tobacco(X5) (3--0.541,Wald x2 =4.718,P =0.030) were the independent risk factors for recurrence of uveitis.The risk of recurrence in patients with uveitis function model expression was h (t)=h0 exp (2.559 X1 +3.797 X2 + 1.901 X3 + 1.331 X4 +1.719 X5).Conclusions Replase of uveitis is an interaction of many factors,and immunosuppression withdrawal,oral steroid withdrawal,colds,work and study stress,excessive alcohol and tobacco are independent risk factors for recurrence of uveitis.An intervention according to the controllable factors is one of the important ways to prevent the recurrence of uveitis.

Aim To investigate the potential role of desipramine(DP) on lipoplysaccharide（LPS）-induced acute lung injury(ALI)and the mechanism of its action.Methods Kunming mice were divided into four groups randomly:NS group(NS),DP control group(DP),LPS group(LPS)and DP treatment group(DP+LPS).The model of ALI in mice was induced by lipoplysaccharidel(LPS,10 mg·kg~(-1),ip).Six hours after LPS challenged,the lung samples were taken for determination of lung wet-to-dry weight ratio(W/D),myeloperoxidase(MPO)activity,and malondialdehyde(MDA)content.The bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)samples were analyzed for total protein concentrateion and white blood cell(WBC)count.The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in lung were measured by ELISA.Results LPS could significantly increase the total protein concentration and WBC number in BALF.The lung W/D ration,MPO activity,MDA content and the levels of TNF-α in lungs all increased after ip injection of LPS.Pretreatment with DP decreased all the changes induced by the LPS.Conclusion Pretreatment with DP protects lung from LPS-induced lung injury in mice,which is,at least in part,through inhibiting the level of TNF-α and decreasing the sequestration of neutrophils and lipid peroxidation.

ObjectiveTo investigate the predisposing factors and pathogenic fungal species of Malassezia folliculitis in different geographical areas and body sites.MethodsTotally,241 patients diagnosed with Malassezia folliculitis were asked to complete a questionnaire.The content of hair follicles was obtained and subjected to fungal smear and culture examination.Fungal species were identified according to morphological,physiological and biochemical features.Results Of the 241 patients with Malassezia folliculitis,204 (84.65％) were positive for smear examination.A total of 259 specimens were collected from these patients,and fungal culture grew 213(82.24％) strains,of which,209 belonged to Malassezia species,4(1.54％) to Candida species.Among the 209 Malassezia strains,186 were activated and subjected to species identification which resulted in 6 species,including M.furfur (111 strains,59.68％ ),M.sloofiae (43 strains,23.12％ ),M.sympodialis (17 strains,9.14％),M.globosa (9 strains,4.84％),M.pachydermatis (4 strains,2.15％),and M.obtuse(2 strains,1.08％ ).Of the pathogenic fungi of Malassezia folliculitis,M.furfur predominated in the chest,back,abdomen,face and neck,M.sloofiae in the upper limbs,shoulders and vertex,M.globosa in the lower limbs.There were obvious differences in the distribution of pathogenic fungal species at different body sites in a same host,and M.furfur with M.sloofiae or M.sympodialis appeared to be the most common pathogens.ConclusionsIn this study,6 Malassezia species are identified in patients with Malassezia folliculitis in Nantong and Nanjing area,M.furfur and M.sloofiae appear to be the dominant pathogens.

Objective To investigate the effect of Aidi injection combined with chemotherapy on CD+4CDhi25CDlow127regulatory T (Treg) cells in peripheral blood of advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods Sixty patients with advanced NSCLC were randomly divided into the study group (treated with Aidi injection combined with chemotherapy) and the control group (treated with chemotherapy).The levels of CD+4CDhi25CDlow127Treg cells were detected by flow cytometry (FCM), and TGF-β1 and IL-10 levels were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) before and after chemotherapy. A group consisted of 20 healthy persons was set up meanwhile.Results There was a significantly higher percentage of CD+4CDhi25CDlow127Treg cells in patients with NSCLC (5.77±1.50) % than that(3.84±0.96) % of healthy volunteers (P=0.000).The IL-10 and TGF-β1 levels[(24.09±6.74), (197.76±43.76) ng/ml]in the serum of patients with NSCLC were also significantly higher than that[(19.39±5.73), (141.13±32.17) ng/ml]of healthy volunteers (P =0.006,P =0.002). In control group, levels of CD+4CDhi25CDlow127 Treg cells were obviously lower than that before chemotherapy (P =0.048).Levels of TGF-β1 and IL-10[(22.25±6.79), (184.85±49.11) ng/ml]were slightly decreased, which showed no significant difference contrast to pretherapy[(24.37±8.10), (197.16±44.57) ng/ml](P =0.276, P =0.314).In study group, levels of CD+4CDhi25CDlow127Treg cells and TGF-β1, IL-10[(4.36±1.19) %,(20.16±4.73), (165.42±39.57) ng/ml]were obviously lower than that before chemotherapy[(5.78±1.50) %,(23.81±5.15), (198.35±43.68) ng/ml](P=0.000, P=0.003, P =0.006).Conclusion The CD+4CDhi25CDlow127 Treg cells in the peripheral blood of advanced NSCLC patients is significantly increased. Aidi injection combined with chemotherapy can obviously reduce the level of CD+4CDhi25CDlow127 Treg cells in patients with advanced NSCLC, and the combined therapy could improve the immune function of patients.

Objective : To investigate the awareness of human papillomavirus ( HPV ) vaccine and willingness to vaccinate daughters among parents of primary and middle school students, so as to provide the reference for the promotion of HPV vaccine in primary and middle school girls. Methods : Using multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method, the parents of girls in in Grade Four to Nine from schools in Gongshu District of Hangzhou, Xiuzhou District of Jiaxing and Wuxing District of Huzhou were selected. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect demographic information, HPV vaccine related knowledge and willingness to vaccinate daughters with HPV vaccines. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for the willingness to vaccinate daughters with HPV vaccines among parents. Results : Totally 1 500 questionnaires were sent out, and 1 466 were effectively collected, with an effective rate of 97.73%. There were 313 fathers responded, accounting for 21.35%; and 1 153 mothers responded, accounting for 78.65%. The awareness rate of HPV vaccine was 16.81%. The rate of willing to vaccinate daughters with HPV vaccines was 49.86%. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the patients who ever vaccinated daughters with self-paid vaccines ( OR=1.935, 95%CI: 1.473-2.541 ), knew cervical cancer ( OR=1.424, 95%CI: 1.065-1.904 ), knew HPV vaccine dose ( OR=1.672, 95%CI:1.216-2.301 ), knew the best vaccination period ( OR=1.392, 95%CI: 1.032-1.876 ), knew the need of cervical cancer screening even after vaccination ( OR=1.596, 95%CI:1.227-2.075) were more willing to vaccinate daughters with HPV vaccines, while the parents who thought HPV vaccine expensive ( OR=0.154, 95%CI: 0.099-0.240 ) were less willing to vaccinate daughters with HPV vaccines. Conclusions The rates of HPV vaccine awareness and willingness to vaccinate daughters are 16.81% and 49.86% among parents of primary and middle school students. Their knowledge of HPV vaccine and the price of the vaccine may affect their willingness to vaccinate daughters.
