One strain of Pseudoalteromonas sp. E18 was isolated from the sea mud of Ningbo, Zhejiang. It can produce indigo pigment. The morphological, cultural and biochemical characteristics of the bacterium were studied. The indigo pigment was also extracted. The results showed that the maximum absorption peak of the pigment was at 579nm. The pigment was stable to UV, Na_2SO_3,It was also stable at pH 3~9. The pigment was unstable to the sunlight and high concentration H_2O_2. Temperature of 60℃~80℃ could increase the hue while temperature higher than 90℃ could reduce the hue.

Objective To observe the EGFR nuclear translocation in cervical carcinoma cell lines after irradiation and its possible role in radiation tolerance.Methods Western blotting was used to detect the nuclear EGFR and cytoplastic EGFR after irradiation.The effect of Cetuximab on expression of nuclear EGFR and survival fractions were investigated.Results After irradiation,compared with control group,the expression of nuclear EGFR protein increased in irradiated cervical carcinoma cell.Cetuximab inhibited the radiation-induced nuclear EGFR expression with decreased survival fractions.Conclusion Radiation could induce EGFR nuclear translocation in cervical carcinoma cell lines and nuclear EGFR might be correlated with radiation tolerance in Cervical carcinoma cell.

Objective: To explore the change of bone mass density(BMD) and micronutrients in middle-aged and old patients with iron overload and the effect on levels of micronutrients.Methods: BMD was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry(DXA) in 19 middle-aged and old patients with iron overload and 41 age-and gender-matched healthy subjects.Serum selenium(Se)was measured by fluorospectrophotometry.Serum zinc(Zn) was measured by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry(ICP-AES).Plasma vitamin A,D and E were measured by HPLC.The levels of blood lipid and plasma homocysteine were measured by automatic biochemical analyzer.Results: Plasma vitamin E of 19 iron overload patients was significantly lower than control group,and the levels of triglyceride and homocysteine increased significantly(P

Objective To establish and optimize a sensitive and specific quantitative realtime polymerase chain reaction(PCR)method for detection of hepatitis B virus covalently closed circular DNA(HBV cccDNA)in liver tissue. Methods Specific primers and probes were designed to detect HBV DNA(tDNA)and cccDNA. A series of plasmids(3.44 × 100-3.44 × 109 copies/μl)containing a full double-stranded copies of HBV genome(genotype C)were used to establish the standard curve of real-time PCR. Liver samples of 33 patients with HBV related hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC), 13 Chronic hepatitis B patients(CHB)and 10 non-HBV patients were collected to verify the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. A fraction of extracted DNA was digested with a Plasmid-Safe ATP-dependent Dnase(PSAD)for HBV cccDNA detection and the remaining was used for tDNA and β-globin detection. The amount(copies/cell)of HBV cccDNA and tDNA were measured by a real-time PCR, using β-globin housekeeping gene as a quantitation standard. Results The standard curves of real-time PCR with a linear range of 3.44 × 100 to 3.44 × 109 copies/μl were established for detecting HBV cccDNA and tDNA, and both of the lowest detection limits of HBV cccDNA and tDNA were 3.44 × 100 copies/μl. The lowest quantitation levels of HBV cccDNA in liver tissues tested in 33 HBV related HCC patients and 13 CHB patients were 0.003 copies/cell and 0.031copies/cell, respectively. HBV cccDNA and tDNA in liver tissue of 10 non-HBV patient appeared to be negative. The true positive rate was increasing through the digestion of HBV DNA by PSAD, and the analytic specificity of cccDNA detection improved by 7.24 × 102 times. Liver tissues of 2 patients were retested 5 times in the PCR for detecting cccDNA and the coefficience of variations on cycle threshold (Ct)were between 0.224%-0.609%. Conclusion A highly sensitive and specific quantitative real time PCR method for the detection of HBV cccDNA in liver tissue was established and could be used for clinical and epidemiological studies.
