This article deals with the organ culture on hamster trachea under the normal condition. The result showed that the epithelium of trachea could be kept alive up to 8 th-week at most by means of rotatory method of incubation. The culture media are RPMI 1640 (Nissui) and Eagle MEM (Nissui). Each medium was with or without bovine serum added. The results of histological, ultrastructural, radioautographic observations exhibited that the tracheal epithelia of hamster before culture showed ciliated columnar form with cilia. With prolongation of culture time, the changes of tracheal epithelium took the following order, from ciliated columnar to simple columnar and to simple squamous form. These changes were observed in all 4 groups. In radioautography, there are labeling granules in nuclei of tracheal epithelial cells in all 4 groups at different culture time, indicating that the epithelial cells still maintained DNA synthetic activity. TEM observation has showed ultrastructure of tracheal epithelium remained unchanged within 4 weeks. The ciliated cells are well with intact cilia. The intercellular junction is the tight one. Occasionally in accordance with LM observation a few of ciliated cell lacked cilia and its nucleus flattened. In cytoplasm, the dilatation of cisternae of rER and the incresing amount of ribosomes and lysosomes could be seen under TEM. During 7-8 weeks only a part of epithelia of trachea was still kept well, most of them became single layer. The ciliated cells lacked cilia, and their nuclei were long and oval in shape. Some enlarged lysosomes and autophagic vacuoles could be seen in cytoplasm indicating cytoplasmic degeneration. The present study suggested that both Eagle MEM and RPMF 1640 show the same culture effect.

A CdTe/ZnSe quantum-dot submicrobead ( QBs ) , which exhibited fluorescence intensity approximately 2800-fold stronger than that of single quantum dots, was conjugated with the anti-histidine rich protein( HRP )-Ⅱ mAbs using N-( 3-( Dimethylamino ) propyl )-N'-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride ( EDC ) method as fluorescence probe. The goat anti-HRP-Ⅱ polyclonal antibodies and donkey anti-mouse polyclonal antibodies were sprayed onto the nitrocellulose membrane as test line and control line, respectively. The resultant fluorescence probes were introduced to the immunochromatographic strip for the quantitative determination of Plasmodium falciparum. For determination of Plasmodium falciparum in serum, the QBs based immunochromatographic strips exhibited a good dynamic linear range from 5 . 8 Parasite/μL to 8010 Parasite/μL with a limit of detection of 5. 8 Parasite/μL. The detection time of the proposed QBs based immunochromatographic strips for each sample was only 15 min. Moreover, the recovery rates of the intra-and inter-assay ranged from 93. 0% to 111. 9%, and 98. 3% to 115. 1% respectively, while the relative standard deviations ( RSDs) of intra-and inter-assay were below 5%.

Objective To study the effect of social isolation( SI) on the exploratory behavior and working memory in mice. Methods The Kunming mice of postnatal 21 days were divided into the control group,SI 2 weeks group,SI 2 weeks gregarious group,SI 4 weeks group and SI 8 weeks group,according to randomized design with ten animals each. All isolated mice were isolated for 2, 4 and 8 weeks respectively, the gregarious group were housed under normal grouped housing enviroment after isolation until adult, the mice with the relative same age were control groups. All animals were measured for exploratory behavior and working memory by performing open field and T?maze after the treatment. Results In the open field,compared to the relative control group,the central area of the total time in the SI 4 weeks group(0.07±0.04) was less than the control (0.10±0.04) obviously. The central area percentage of total time in SI 8 weeks group (0.64±0.12) were more than the control (0.43±0.08). In the T?maze,the alteration times in SI 2 weeks group (first day (5.92±0.79),second day (6.67±1.3),third day (7.42±1.08),fourth day (8.17±1.27)) were less than the control (first day (6.80±1.14); second day (7.60± 0.84);third day (8.30±0.95);forth day (9.20±1.32)). However,the alteration times of gregarious group showed no obvious change. Both the alteration times of SI 4 weeks (8.18±1.99) in the second day and that of SI 8 weeks (8.29±3.04) in the forth day were more than the control (6.60±2.11) and (7.80±2.53) respectively.Conclu?sions Working memory of SI 2 weeks rats decrease,which can be improved by the resocialization.SI 4 weeks and 8 weeks rats show the decreasing exploring ability and increasing anxiety and work memory.

Under the background of " Internet+ medical treatment" and the continuous deepening of face recognition technology research, the face recognition industry has continued to mature, and face recognition has been initially applied in medical fields such as hospital management, auxiliary medical care, and epidemic prevention and control. At the same time, face recognition technology brings problems including error risk, technical cracking risk, privacy risk, equality risk, abuse risk, and other issues in practice, which seriously threaten the personal and property rights and interests of the public. On the basis of summarizing the specific application direction of face recognition technology in hospitals, the authors sorted out the legal regulation of face recognition in China, and proposed that it should be based on technology research and development, strengthen the " gatekeeper" responsibility of medical institutions, improve legal system and recommendations for strengthening judicial leadership in order to improve the legal regulations of face recognition technology, reduce the risk of infringement by medical institutions in the application of face recognition technology, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of citizens.

This study sought to clone Chinese Banna minipig inbred-line (BMI) alpha1,3-galactosyltransferase (alpha1,3-GT) gene and construct its recombinant eukaryotic expression vector. Total RNA was isolated from BMI liver. Full length cDNA of alpha1,3-GT gene was amplified by RT-PCR and cloned into pMD18-T vector to sequence. Subsequently, alpha1,3-GT gene was inserted into pEGFP-N1 to construct eukaryotic expression vector pEGFP-N1-GT. Then the reconstructed plasmid pEGFP-N1-GT was transiently transfected into human lung cancer cell line A549. The expression of alpha1,3-GT mRNA in transfected cells was detected by RT-PCR. FITC-BS-IB4 lectin was used in the direct immunofluorescence method, which was performed to observe the alpha-Gal synthesis function of BMI alpha1,3-GT in transfected cells. The results showed that full length of BMI alpha1,3-GT cDNA was 1116 bp. BMI alpha1,3-GT cDNA sequence was highly homogenous with those of mouse and bovine, and was exactly the same as the complete sequence of those of swine, pEGFP-N1-GT was confirmed by enzyme digestion and PCR. The expression of alpha1,3-GT mRNA was detected in A549 cells transfected by pEGFP-N1-GT. The expression of alpha-Gal was observed on the membrane of A549 cells transfected by pEGFP-N1-GT. Successful cloning of BMI alpha1,3-GT cDNA and construction of its eukaryotic expression vector have established a foundation for further research and application of BMI alpha1,3-GT in the fields of xenotransplantation and immunological therapy of cancer.

Objective:To investigate the effect of adenosine deaminase acting on RNA 1 (ADAR1) on 5-serotonin-2c receptor in alleviating aggression in socially isolated mice.Methods:Sixty healthy male BALB / c mice aged 21 days were randomly divided into six groups: social isolation group, social control group, ADAR1 inducer social isolation group, ADAR1 inhibitor social isolation group, ADAR1 inducer social control group and ADAR1 inhibitor control group.The mice fed in single cage for 4 weeks were used as social isolation model while the mice fed in group were used as control group.ADAR1 inducer (5.0×10 4 U/kg) and inhibitor (10 mg/kg) were given intraperitoneally to mice in the ADAR1 inducer social isolation group and the ADAR1 inhibitor social isolation group respectively.The aggressive behavior of mice was evaluated by resident-intruder test.The expression of ADAR1 and 5-serotonin-2c receptors in the brain of mice was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. Results:The attack latency of social isolation group was significantly lower than that of social control group ((43.15±6.99) s, (542.40±30.50) s; t=15.906, P<0.01), and the latency of attack ((256.70±29.49) s) in the ADAR1 inducer social isolation group was significantly higher than that in the social isolation group ( t=7.046, P<0.01). The latency of attack ((15.25±2.18)s) in the ADAR1 inhibitor social isolation group was significantly lower than that in the social isolation group ( t=3.809, P<0.01). The optical density of ADAR1 immunoreactive cells in the amygdala of the social isolation group mice was significantly lower than that in the corresponding brain area of the social control group (BLA: (0.038±0.002), (0.074±0.004); LaDL: (0.033±0.002), (0.060±0.002); LaVM: (0.045±0.003), (0.073±0.004); Lavl area: (0.044±0.003), (0.070±0.003); t=8.428, 9.037, 6.462, 5.698, all P<0.01). The optical density of ADAR1 immunoreactive positive cells in the amygdala (BLA: (0.060±0.003), LaDL: (0.042±0.002), LaVM: (0.056±0.004), Lavl: (0.054±0.003) in the ADAR1 inducer social isolation group was significantly higher than those in the corresponding brain area of the social isolation group mice ( t=6.055, 2.876, 2.312, 2.492; all P<0.05). The expression of ADAR1 protein and 5-serotonin-2c receptor protein in amygdala of social isolation group were significantly lower than those of social isolation group ( t=11.37, 12.65; P<0.01). The expression of ADAR1 protein and 5-serotonin-2c receptor protein in the amygdala of the ADAR1 inducer social isolation group were significantly higher than those of the social isolation group ( t=3.02, 4.401; P<0.05). Conclusion:ADAR1 inducer alleviates the aggressive behavior of social isolated BALB / c mice by enhancing the protein expression of 5-serotonin-2c receptor in the amygdala of social isolated BALB/c mice.
