Objective To determine sequence of sporogony stage-specific (S type) 18S ribosomal RNA gene of Plasmodium yoelii (P.y) By265 strain, and by using it to detect the malaria parasites within vector mosquito. Methods A pair of conserved DNA primers, universe primer (Pu) and reverse transcription one (Pr), was designed and synthesized according to sequence of the 18S rRNA gene of Plasmodium berghei (P.b). The segment of the S type 18S rDNA of P.y was amplified by reverse transcript-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) from dissected midguts of Anopheles stephensi infected with P.y on the 7th day after infective blood-meal, and its sequence was then determined. One P.y sporogony stage-specific primer (Pys) was selected according to the sequence. Using this primer and Pr, the parasites within mosquitoes were semi-quantitatively detected through RT-PCR between 1-7 d post-infection. Results The length of the amplified segment was 920 bp. Alignment in match region of the 18S rDNA among S type of P.y (PyS), S type of P.b (PbS) and asexual blood stage-specific one of P.y (PyA) revealed that the similarity between the former and the latter two reached 95\^3% and 94\^0% respectively. The density of amplified band was significantly concordance with the intensity of oocyst in the midgut. Sensitivity of RT-PCR method was higher than that of the traditional dissection and oocyst observation also. The assay could detect the 18S rRNA molecule of the parasites on the third day post-infection while their oocysts were difficult to be recognized under an optical microscope at that time. Conclusion This S type 18S rDNA sequence in P.y species was first reported (AF266261). As a molecular marker, it could be applied to monitoring the parasite development in its vector at an earlier stage semi-quantitatively with an adequate sensitivity and specificity.

Epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs)and anti-angio-genic drugs have individually demonstrated clinical benefit in the treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Recent studies demonstrate that the combination of anti-EGFR and anti-angiogene-sis can more significantly enhance clinical benefit,and even can remit EGFR-TKIs resistance in the treatment of advanced NSCLC.According to the different kinds of anti-angiogenesis drugs,recent clinical studies mainly include the combination of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor monoclonal antibody bevacizumab plus EGFR-TKIs and multi-targeted receptor anti-angiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitor plus EGFR-TKIs,and the for-mer results show a more significant improvement in terms of safety and efficacy in the treatment of advanced NSCLC.Therefore,the combination of bevacizumab plus EGFR-TKIs can be used as a new treatment standard in the treatment of some patients with NSCLC.

Objective To investigate the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation combined with motor relearning program on the recovery of upper limb motor function after stroke.Methods From September 2015 to June 2016,40 patients with first-ever stroke received rehabilitation therapy at the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine,Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University were enrolled prospectively.Their course of disease was 1 to 6 months.They were divided into either a combined treatment group or a control group according to the odd and even numbers in hospital (n =20 in each group).The patients of both groups received traditional rehabilitation training and motor relearning program for upper lindb recovery,2 times a day,once for 30 min,5 days a week for 6 weeks.The combined treatment group was also given transcranial direct current stimulation,2 times a day,once for 20 min,5 days a week,while the control group was only treated with sham stimulation treatment.The patients were assessed before treatment and at 6 weeks after treatment.Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) scores and Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) were used to assess upper limb motor function.The modified Barthel index (MBI) was used to evaluate the activities of daily living.Results There was no significant difference in the observation indices before treatment between the 2 groups (P > 0.05).Six weeks after treatment,the differences of the upper limb FMA score and ARAT score before treatment were superior to the control group,they were 13 ± 3,10 ± 3 and 10 ± 2,8 ± 2,respectively (t =3.503 and 3.244 respectively,all P < 0.01).There was no significant difference in the MBI score between the 2 groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion Transcranial direct current stimulation combined with motor relearning program may effectively improve the upper limb motor function in patients with stroke and promote the improvement of the activities of daily living.

Objective To study whether the inhibitor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase can inhibit the proliferation of human lens epithelial cells and to investigate which isoforms of NOX, one of the subunits of NADPH oxidase, are expressed in human lens epithelial cells at mRNA level. Design Experimental study. Participants Human lens epithelial cells (SRA 01/04). Methods The cells were divided into four groups: EGF group was added with EGF in SRA 01/04, DPI group was added with the inhibitor of NADPH oxidase-diphenylene iodonium (DPI), DPI +EGF group was added with EGF after DPI and control group was added with nothing. Using Microplate reader and Cell Counting Kit-8 to determine OD450 value of SRA 01/04 of each group. The ex- pression of NOX family, including NOX1, NOX2 or gp91phox, NOX3, NOX4 and NOX5, was detected with RT-PCR. The RT-PCR products were sequenced to confirm their identities by NCBI BLAST. Main Outcome Measures OD450 of SRA 01/04, expression of NOX and their sequence alignments with other human tissues. Results After added with CCK-8 for 3.5 h, the OD450 value of EGF group increased 12.0% compared with control group (P=0.000). The OD450 value of DPI group decreased 25.5% compared with control group (P=0.000). The OD450 value of DPI+EGF group decreased 26.1% compared with EGF group (P=0.000). RT-PCR using primers specific for mRNAs of the five isoforms of the NOX proteins documented that mRNA encoding NOX1 through NOX5 were constitutively present in SRA 01/04 cells. The similarity of sequences of NOX1-NOX5 in human lens epithelial cells with other human tissues was 100%, 100%, 99.7%, 100% and 100%, respectively. Conclusions NADPH oxidase complex could promote cell proliferation in human lens epithelial cells. SRA 01/04 cells constitutively produced mRNA encoding five isoforms of NOX proteins, NOX1 was much weaker than the other four NOXs.
