The design of DNA-based alphavirus vectors significantly improves the utility of these replicon vectors. The DNA-based replicon vectors can be used in expressing foreign genes and preparing RVP in virto efficiently, also in developing replicon vaccines and gene therapy vectors in vivo. The approach involved the conversion a RNA-based replicon vector into a layered DNA-based replicon vector by the RNA polymerase Ⅱ promoter and transcription termination/polyadenylation signal transcribed replicon RNA from DNA. When DNA-based alphavirus vector tranfected into cells, the first layer includes a eukaryotic RNA polymerase Ⅱ expression cassette that initiates transcription of RNA in nucleus. Following transport of this RNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, the second layer, autocatalytic amplification of the RNA vector corresponds to virus RNA replication cycle and results in high level expression of foreign gene. DNA and RNA-based bifunctional replicon expression vector pSCTA and helper vector pSHCTA were successfully constructed by replacing the SP6 promoter used in the original system pSFV1 and pSFV-helper2 derived from Semliki Forest virus (SFV) with CMV promoter and T7 promoter, and inserting BGH transcription termination and polyadenylation signal downstream 3′-untranslated region (UTR). In order to obtain DNA-based highly efficient replicon vectors, they were further modified to construct additional three DNA-based SFV replicon expression vectors and corresponding helper vectors. To investigate the efficiency of foreign gene expression level by the four different DNA-based SFV expression vectors and recombinant virus particle (RVP) prepared by cotranfecting with corresponding helper vectors, improved DNA-based replicon vectors pSCAR and pSHCAR derived from SFV were developed. high level protein could be generated using the new vector system by transfecting DNA into BHK21 cells and High titer of RVP produced by cotranfecting with helper vector. Antigen genes were also expressed in cells by the replicon expression vector. Additionally, reporter gene expression was observed in mice muscle following injection with SFV DNA vector. Anti-?-Gal antibody response and cell-mediated immune response were induced after intramuscular inoculation of the ?-Gal-encoding SFV replicon DNA. The results suggested that highly efficient DNA-based replicon vectors pSCAR and pSHCAR were constructed by modifying the SFV vectors. The improved DNA-based replicon vectors enhance the utility of them, and can be developed as potentially replicon vaccines and gene therapy vectors.

Objective To explore the associations of the genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily D, polypeptide 6 (CYP2D6) and cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily C, polypeptide 9 (CYP2C9) with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia and the efficacy of labetalol therapy. Methods Totally 105 gravidas diagnosed with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia (experimental group) and 103 healthy gravidas (control group) were recruited from Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital between August 2013 and July 2016. Labetalol was given to control blood pressures in gravidas with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia. If labetalol administration alone did not exceed the mean dose (100 mg, one dose per eight hours) and effectively controlled the blood pressures, it would be considered to be valid (n=75), otherwise it would be viewed as an invalid treatment. Genotype and allele frequencies of CYP2C9 gene (rs1057910 and rs4918758) and CYP2D6 gene (rs1065852, rs28371725, rs35742686 and rs3892097) in the gravidas were analyzed by TaqMan probe polymerase chain reaction. Differences in the genotype and allele frequencies were compared between the experimental and control groups, and the valid and invalid labetalol treatment groups. Chi-square test, analysis of variance and LSD test were used as statistical methods. Results The gravidas in both experimental and control groups were AA genotype in CYP2C9 gene rs1057910, TT genotype in CYP2D6 gene rs35742686 and CC genotype in CYP2D6 gene rs3892097. Frequencies of CC and CT genotypes in CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group [18.1% (19/105) vs 14.6% (15/103);56.2% (59/105) vs 42.7% (44/103); χ2=6.707], and higher C allele frequency in CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 was also observed in the experimental group [46.2% (97/210) vs 35.9% (74/206), χ2=4.529] (all P<0.05). No statistical differences in maternal age, diastolic pressure, body mass index before pregnancy, serum triglyceride, creatinine and neonatal birth weight were observed among women with CC, CT or TT genotype of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 in the experimental group (all P>0.05). Compared with the gravidas with CT or TT genotype of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725, those with CC genotype had longer gestational age [(32.5±2.1) vs (29.5±1.8) and (29.8±2.2) weeks] and higher plasma albumin [(27.2±9.3) vs (20.3±10.4) and (22.5±7.4) g/L], but lower systolic pressure and 24 hours urine protein (LSD test, all P<0.05). The G allele frequency in CYP2D6 gene rs1065852 in invalid labetalol treatment group was higher than that in valid labetalol treatment group [93.3% (56/60) vs 76.0% (114/150), χ2=8.351, P=0.004]. Conclusions The polymorphism of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 may be associated with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia, and the allele of G in CYP2D6 gene rs1065852 may be associated with the efficacy of labetalol in treatment of early-onset severe pre-eclampsia.

Medical simulation training as a modern medical education has been used for decades in developed countries. Simulation based team training for obstetric emergency provides opportunities to re-hearse without risks to patients and helps overcome some limitations of the current medical education to improve the ability of medical staff to deal with obstetric emergencies, and improve adverse pregnancy out-comes. Simulation training is still at early stage in China. The Simulation Training Center of Beijing Ob-stetrics&Gynecology Hospital was established in June 2013. There are 100 medical staffs from our hospital and 406 from other hospitals who are trained using simulations to respond to acute obstetrical emergencies, including postpartum hemorrhage, neonatal recovery, shoulder dystocia and amniotic fluid embolism. Through introduction—on-scene simulation training—task report, we focus on learning, practical operation, emer-gency team and multidisciplinary coordination and communication skills training and through training, help learners understand the medical simulation training mode, and improve personal and team's ability to deal with the obstetric emergency. There is no doubt that simulation training will be further developed in China. Further research is required to investigate the application significance and feasibility of simulation training and access effectiveness of it.

Objective To perform the cloning of the gene encoding Schistosoma japonicum Chinese-strain hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase(HGPRT)and its expression in Escherichia coli.MethodsA couple of primers were designed with the BamHI restriction endonuclease site introduced in forward primer and SalI in reverse primer.Total RNA was isolated from adult worms of S.japonicum Chinese-strain(Anhui-strain,Sjc-A)and the SjcHGPRT gene was amplified by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).The PCR product and the prokaryotic expression vector pET28a were digested by both restriction endonucleases BamHI and SalI.The target DNA fragments were purified and cloned properly into pET28a.After identification by en-donucleases digestion,PCR and sequencing,the recombinant plasmid pET28a-SjcHG PRT was transformed into competent E.coli BL21 and expressed in the presence of IPTG.Results pET28a-SjHGPRT was sequenced and shown to be 99% and 83% identical in deduced amino acid sequence to that of S.japonicum Chinese-strain(Hunan-strain,Sjc-H)and S.mansoni HGPRT,respectively.The results of SDS-PAGE and Western blot revealed that the molecular weight of expressed protein was around 30 kDa and could be recognized by anti-His-G-HPR antibody and sera from mice and human with schistosomasis japonica.Conclusion The recombinant plasmid containing SjcHGPRT cDNA is successfully constructed and its expression protein(reSjcHGPRT)is also successfully purified.

Objective To clone and express the partial encoding sequence of Mr 70 000 heat shock protein of Cryptosporidium andersoni (CaHSP70) in Escherichia coli and identify the recombinant protein. Methods Total RNA was extracted from oocysts of C.andersoni isolated from Xuzhou, Jiangsu (XZ-BOV). The CaHSP70 gene was amplified by RT-PCR. The PCR product was cloned and then subcloned into pET28a vector, and the recombinant plasmids were transformed into E.coli BL21(DE3) subsequently. The expressed protein induced by IPTG was purified and identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting, and was further analyzed by relevant bioinformatics softwares. The specific IgG antibodies in mice immunized by rCaHSP70 were detected by Western blotting and ELISA respectively. Results The deduced amino acid sequence showed to be identical with that of C. andersoni Mr 70 000 heat shock protein (HSP70). The recombinant protein expressed in the form of inclusion body was about Mr 43 000. It could be recognized by anti-His G labeled HRP antibodies and all the sera from mice infected with C. andersoni and children infected with C. parvum as well as sera from mice immunized with rCaHSP70 respectively. The rCaHSP70 possibly had multiple domains and potential antigenic determinants. Phylogenetic analysis showed that XZ-BOV and C. andersoni were in the same clade. ELISA showed that the level of specific antibodies against rCaHSP70 in immunized BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice was significantly higher than that of mice before immunization. Conclusion The recombinant plasmid pET28a-CaHSP70 has been constructed. The purified rCaHSP70 exhibits high antigenicity and seems a potential candidate antigen for immunodiagnosis of cryptosporidiosis.

Objective To compare the quality of life ( QOL) in different family life cycle residents and analyze its influencing factors. Methods Based on the stratified cluster sampling,517 married residents from three communities of Dongguan city were chosen to be investigated by a questionnaire on the general status and the MOS health survey (SF-36).The One-Way ANOVA and Multiple Regression Analysis were used to analyze the data. Result There were significant differences on the seven domains of the SF-36 ex-cept of physical pain in different family life cycle residents (P<0.05) . The scores of different domains at the retirement or senior years were the lowest ( ranging from 37.10-59.81) ,and the scores of different domains at the child-bearing period were highest (ranging from 37.10-59.81). The results of Multiple Linear Stepwise Regression showed that the QOL of different family life cycle residents were influenced by some factors. The influencing factors on PCS at the child-bearing period were income (β=1.51) and life events (β=-6.13), while that at the period of families with adolescents were economic income (β=1.81) and age (β=-0.65);that at the period of empty nest were economic income (β=-3.64) and age (β=-0.65);and that at the re-tirement or senior years were unhealthy living habit (β=-15.06),age (β=-0.56) and income (β=3.06). The influencing factors on MCS at the child-bearing period was medical insurance (β=5.86),while that at the period of families with adolescents were medical insurance (β=6.28),education (β=2.32),life events (β=-4.68) and occupation (β=-5.53);that at the period of the empty nest were age (β=-0.61) ,gender (β=-10.35) and chronic disease (β=-8.35);that at the retirement or senior years were age (β=-0.27) , economic income (β=2.55) and unhealthy living habit (β=-6.95) . Conclusion The influencing factors of QOL for different family cycle residents are not conformity with each other. It suggested that in order to im-prove the QOL of residents, the community health service including health education and health promotion should be based on different family life cycle.

Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of uterine artery and umbilical artery in the first, second, and third trimester of normal pregnancy and hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP).Methods A multi-center prospective study was conducted on 1098 women with normal singleton pregnancies at the first prenatal visit in the Second West China Hospital of Sichuan University, First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University, Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, Wuhan Union Hospital Affiliated to Medical School of Huazhong University of Science and Technology and Renji Hospital Affiliated to Medical School of Shanghai Jiao Tong University from April 2005 to July 2006, with the average age of (28. 3±3.3). The pulsatility indices (PI),resistance indices (RI) and systolic to diastolic velocity ratios (S/D) of uterine artery and umbilical artery were measured for all subjects in the first (10th -14th gestationa] weeks), second (20th-26th gestational weeks) and third trimester(30th -36th gestational weeks), respectively. In this longitudinal study, women who developed HDP were classified into HDP group, and the rest into normal pregnancy group. Results (1) Among the 1098 pregnant women, 44 developed HDP during the index pregnancy, including 20 gestational hypertension, 15 mild pre-eclampsia and 9 severe pre-eclampsia, giving an incidence of 4.17%,and the rest 1054 were normal until delivery.(2) In the normal pregnancy group, the RI, PI and S/D of uterine artery were decreased with the progress of pregnancy (RI: 0. 64, 0. 57, 0. 50; PI: 1.24, 0. 98,0. 80; S/D: 3.26, 2. 58, 2. 20; P<0.01). However, the above indices showed an increasing trend with the increase of gestations in the HDP group (RI: 0. 55, 0. 67, 0. 64; PI: 1.22, 1.36, 1.20; S/D: 3.18,3.41,3.05; P <0. 01). In the second and third trimester, the RI, PI and S/D of uterine artery in the HDP group were higher than those in the normal pregnancy group (P<0.01). (3) In the normal pregnancy group, the RI, PI and S/D of the umbilical artery decreased from the secondto the third trimester (RI:0. 71 and 0. 58; PI: 1.16 and 0. 87; S/D: 3.58 and 2. 48; P<0.01). However, no significant difference was found in the RI, PI and S/D value of umbilical artery in the second and third trimester between the normal and HDP group (RI:0.71 and 0.63; PI: 1.20 and 0.95; S/D: 3.71 and 2.69; P>0.05,respectively), despite the decreasing trend in the HDP group. Conclusions In uncomplicated pregnancies,the blood flow resistance of uterine artery decreases and the end-diastolic blood flow of uterine artery increases with the progress of pregnancy. However, in pregnant women with HDP, the blood flow resistance of uterine artery increases significantly with the increase of gestations which shows significant difference to that in normal pregnancies. The blood flow resistance of umbilical artery decreases in both normal and HDP pregnant women with the increasing gestational age.
