HIV-1 integrase (IN) is a key enzyme for the viral replication. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) between HIV-1 IN and a cellular cofactor lens epithelium-derived growth factor (LEDGF/p75) is a validated target for anti-HIV drug discovery. In order to build the platform for screening inhibitor against PPI between IN and LEDGF/p75, the vector containing the LEDGF/p75 protein cDNA was constructed and expressed in Escherichia coli and the function of the LEDGF/p75 protein was assayed. The LGDGF/p75 encoding gene optimized according to the preference codon usage of E. coli, was synthesized and cloned into the expression vector pGEX-4T-1 to form a recombined plasmid, then transformed into host cell E. coli BL21 (DE3). The recombined clones were identified and confirmed by BamH I/Sal I digestion and sequencing, the successfully recombined plasmid in the host cell was induced by IPTG and the condition of the expression was optimized. The expressed protein was purified by the Ni2+ affinity chromatography column and SDS-PAGE was used to analyze the molecular weight and specificity. In addition, ELISA assay was used to analyze the function of the recombinant protein. The recombinant LGDGF/p75 was soluble, and expressed highly and stably in E. coli. The protein was proved to enhance HIV-1 IN strand transfer activity in vitro by ELISA. It will be helpful to build the platform of screening inhibitors against PPI between IN and LEDGF/p75.

BACKGROUND: The finite element method has been wildly used in stomatology,but,the modeling methods and models were different and lack of standard.There is not biomechanical analysis software which specialized indental implantology.OBJECTIVE: To compile software that can generate alveoli-implant complex finite element models.METHODS: Based on PC,CAD,finite element analysis,database and electronic table software,software that includes the functions of modeling,database and assembles was programmed using Visual Basic for Application programming language.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Various kinds of alveoli-implant models could obtain though the software.A software package that can generate alveoli-implant finite element models rapidly and automatically could be compiled with the complex of AutoDesk Mechanical Desktop 2009DX,ANSYS Workbench 10.1 and Visual Basic for Application.

Objective To analyze of the relationship between level of anxiety and depression before surgery and anus exhausting time for patients after gynecological abdominal surgery.Methods A descriptive study was conducted with a survey of 100 cases of patients with gynecological abdominal surgery where the level of anxiety and depression before surgery and post-anus exhausting time were analyzed to explore the correlation between them.Results In the 88 valid questionnaires,the incidences of stress and anxiety before surgery were respectively 38.64％(34/84) and 19.32％(17/88) and the average anus exhausting time after surgery was (44.55 ± 13.90) hours;the anus exhausting time of anxious patients was significantly longer than that of non-anxious patients [(48.35±12.84) hours vs.(42.50±14.13) hours,t=-2.12,P＜0.05] and bivariate Logistic regression analysis suggested that preoperative level of anxiety had a significant effect on anus exhausting time after surgery.Conclusions Stress,anxiety and other negative emotions can affect anus exhausting time after surgery and level of anxiety could be used as one predictor of the delay of anus exhausting time after surgery.

AIM:To investigate how to design personalized cataract surgery programs to achieve surgical correction of preoperative corneal astigmatism with surgical astigmatism under the guidance of corneal topography, improve postoperative visual quality and reduce the cost of treatment.
METHODS: Totally 202 cases ( 226 eyes ) cataract patients were divided into randomized treatment group and individualized treatment group. According to the method and location of the incision, randomized treatment group were divided into 8 groups. Surgical astigmatism after different incision were calculated with the use of preoperative and postoperative corneal astigmatism through vector analysis method. Individualized treatment groups were designed personably for surgical method with reference of every surgically induced astigmatism, the surgical method chooses the type of surgical incision based on close link between preoperative corneal astigmatism and surgically induced astigmatism, and the incision was located in the steep meridian. The postoperative corneal astigmatism of individualized treatment group was observed.
RESULTS: Postoperative corneal astigmatism of individualized treatment group were lower than that of 3.0mm clear corneal tunnel incision in the randomized treatment group, there were statistically significance difference, while with 3. 0mm sclera tunnel incision group there were no statistically significance difference. After 55. 8% of patients with the use of individualized surgical plan could undergo the operation of extracapsular cataract extraction with relatively low cost and rigid intraocular lens implantation, the per capita cost of treatment could be reduced.
CONCLUSION: Personalized cataract surgery programs are designed to achieve surgical correction of preoperative corneal astigmatism under the use of corneal topography, improve postoperative visual quality and reduce the cost of treatment.

Objective At present, there are few studies about myelolipoma within adrenal cortical adenoma.Our aim was to provide more basis for correct diagnosis and treatment by investigation into its clinical and pathological features.Methods The clinical and pathological data were retrospectively reviewed in 11 patients of myelolipoma within adrenal cortical adenoma, along with relative literature reviews.Results The median age of 11 patients (7 females, 4 males) was 49±9.5 years, among whom 3 patients presented Cushing's syndrome, 1 patient with more than 10 years' recurrent dizzy with hypertension, other 7 patients were found coincidently by routine examination.Adrenal mass were found by imaging examination.Pathologically, myelolipomas were in solitary nodule distribution and/or admixed with adrenal cortical adenomas.Myelolipomas were composed of variable admixture of mature adipose tissue and hematopoietic elements.Surgical treatment was performed for all 11 patients, and no relapse was found in 2 months' to 11 years' follow-up.Conclusion Myelolipoma within adrenal cortical adenoma is extremely rare, which is common in females.The patients may present with Cushing's syndrome, hypertension or without obvious clinical syndrome.All the patients are in favorable prognosis after surgical resection.
