ObjectiveTo explore the effect of doctor-nurse integration mode in treating patients with liver cirrhosis treated with endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL).Methods According to the random number table,74 patients were randomly divided into control group and experiment group with 37 in each group.The control group was given routine nursing,while the experiment group was managed by doctor-nurse integration nursing mode.The two groups were compared in respect of early re-bleeding after EVL and mastery of health knowledge.Result The mastery of health-related knowledge in the experiment group was better than the control one and the rate of re-bleeding was significantly lower (P<0.05).Conclusion The doctor-nurse integration care mode can reduce the early postoperative re-bleeding after EVL in patients with liver cirrhosis and enhance the health education awareness.

HepG2 ceils were treated with various concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-or (TNF-α) for 24 hours. RT-PCR and Western blot were used to measure protein tyrosine phosphatase-1 B(PTP-1B)expression, and luciferase reporter assay was used to detect NF-kB activity. The results showed that treatment of HepG2 cells with TNF-α for 24 hours led to upregulation of PTP-1B and NF-kB activity in a dose-dependent manner. Inhibition of NF-kB by PI)TC significantly attenuated TNF-α-induced PTP-IB expression in HepG2 cells. Thus, the transactivation of NF-kB seems to play an important role in the expression of PTP-1B in HepG2 cells induced by TNF-α.

To express and identify fibronectin C-terminal heparin-binding domain (FNCH BD) polypeptides in Pichia pastoris expression system and study its function, the fragment of FNCHBD was amplified by PCR and inserted into pGEM-T vector. After sequenced, the fragment was inserted into pAo815SM vector, and then cloned into the expression vector pPIC9k. The recombinant plasmid was linerarized with restrict enzyme Sal I and transferred into the yeast host cell KM71 and GS115. The positive yeast clone was screened by G418 resistant, and the target protein was induced to express in the medium containing 0.5% methanol. The culture supernatant was collected and then was purified with membrane ultrafiltration and ion exchange chromatography. The purified product was analyzed with mass spectrogram, SDS-PAGE, Western blotting and heparin affinity chromatography. The results showed that the target protein was around 32 kDa and the purity of the product was above 95%. FNCHBD could be specifically recognized by fibronectin polyclonal antibody. These results suggest that FNCHBD could be expressed and purified successfully in Pichia pastoris, which provides a good strategy to further studies.
