The application of genetic engineering technology in modern agriculture shows its outstanding role in dealing with food shortage. Traditional medicinal plant cultivation and collection have also faced with challenges, such as lack of resources, deterioration of environment, germplasm of recession and a series of problems. Genetic engineering can be used to improve the disease resistance, insect resistance, herbicides resistant ability of medicinal plant, also can improve the medicinal plant yield and increase the content of active substances in medicinal plants. Thus, the potent biotechnology can play an important role in protection and large area planting of medicinal plants. In the development of medicinal plant genetic engineering, the safety of transgenic medicinal plants should also be paid attention to. A set of scientific safety evaluation and judgment standard which is suitable for transgenic medicinal plants should be established based on the recognition of the particularity of medicinal plants.

Objective To elucidate the pathogenesis of nodular duodenitis by investigating its endoscopic and histopathological characteristics. Methods One hundred and thirty-six patients were enrolled into study. Histopathological changes of duodenal tissue specimens were examined by H-E and AB/PAS staining. H.pylori was demonstrated by Giemsa staining and rapid urease test. Results Under endoscopy, all 136 patients with nodular duodenitis had nodular lesions (ranged from 0.2 cm to 1.0 cm), variant degrees of erythema and edema, among them 21 cases had erosion, and 30 cases had haemorrhagic spots and/or ecchymoses. The detecting rate of nodular duodenitis was 0.9%(136/15 820) of all the endoscopic examinations and 3.8%(136/3541) of duodenitis. There was 107 cases of nodular duodenitis identified by histopathological examination including 53 cases of chronic duodenitis and 54 cases of active duodenitis. The histopathological characteristics of chronic duodenitis were lymphocytes and plasmocytes infiltration and varied degrees of atrophic duodenal villi and glands. While in active duodenitis, there was neutrophilic granulocytes infiltration. There were 51 cases of Brunner's gland hyperplasia and 59 cases of gastric epithelial metaplasia. Among all patients, 7 cases were proved to be gastric heterotopia, 4 cases of schistosomiasis and 18 cases of normal tissue. Among 107 nodular duodenitis, the positive rate of H.pylori infection was 45.8% (49/107), the infection rate of H.pylori in active duodenitis(59.3%,32/54) was significantly higher than that in chronic duodenitis (32.1%,17/53) (P

Objective To study the levels of soluble endoglin (sEng) in peripheral blood and intervillous space blood of patients with preeclampsia, and analyse the correlation between levels of sEng and clinical performance. Methods Levels of sEng in peripheral blood and intervillous space blood of 22 patients with preeclampsia (preeclampsia group, 12 cases of severe preeclampsia and 10 cases of mild preeclampsia) were detected by ELISA, and the correlation between levels of sEng and blood pressure, 24 h urine protein and fetal birth weight was analysed. Twenty-two normal pregnant women were served as control group. Results The sEng levels in peripheral blood and intervillous space blood of preeclampsia group were significantly higher than those of control group [ (31.89 ± 8.80) ng/mL vs (5.24 ± 1.60) ng/mL, P < 0.01; ( 37.74 ± 7.12) ng/mL vs (6.63 ±1.76) ng/mL, P < 0.01]. In preeclampsia group, the sEng levels in peripheral blood and intervillous space blood of severe preeclampsia were significantly higher than those of mild preeclampsia (P <0.01). In preeclampsia group, the sEng level in peripheral blood was significantly correlated with that in intervillous space blood of preeclampsia group (r = 0.876, P < 0.01) , neither was significantly correlated with blood pressure (P > 0.05), both were significantly correlated with 24 h urine protein (r = 0.729, P < 0.01; r = 0.743, P < 0.01) , and both were significantly correlated with fetal birth weight (r = - 0.736, P < 0.01; r = - 0.707, P < 0.01). Conclusion Levels of sEng in peripheral blood and intervillous space blood of patients with preeclampsia are significantly higher than those of normal pregnant women, and the levels of sEng are significantly correlated with the clinical performance of preeclampsia.
