Objective To investigate the value of serum thyroglobulin (Tg) and antithyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) in differentiated thyroid carcinoma complicated with Hashimoto's thyroiditis after thyroid ablation.Methods Serum Tg and TgAb levels and the status of illness in 154 differentiated thyroid carcinoma patients with coexistent Hashimoto's thyroiditis and confirmed pathology after surgery followed by remnant ablation were performed during three years follow up.Tg and TgAb levels were assessed by chemiluminescent immunoassay assay.The cases were divided into three groups (according to the level of Tg):Tg ≤ 1 μg/L group,1 μg/L＜Tg ≤ 10 μg/L group and 10 μg/L＜Tg≤ 100 μg/L group.TgAb＞40 kIU/L was considered as positive,Cox's proportional hazard model was used to analyse prognostic value in different levels of Tg and TgAb for disease-free survival and recurrence.Results Compared with 1 μg/L＜Tg≤ 10 μg/L group and 10 μg/L＜Tg≤ 100 μg/L group,the relative risk in reflecting cancer recurrence (TgAb＞40 kIU/L) in Tg ≤ 1 μg/L group was 27.000 (95 ％ CI 6.727-108.374).The value of TgAb＞40 kIU/L in Tg≤ 1 μg/L group was greatly increased and highly correlated with metastasis.However,In the condition of Tg＞ 1 μg/L,the disease will be based on the level of TgAb.Conclusion The value of TgAb＞40 kIU/L in Tg ≤ 1 μg/L group seems to be the optimal cutoff value correlated with recurrence and metastasis of differentiated thyroid carcinoma.

Objective To produce prokaryotic recombinant protein glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase of Clonorchis sinensis (CsGAPDH), analyze its enzyme activity and immunological function. Methods The recombinant CsGAPDH was purified according to the protocol of GST?Bind~TM kit and was digested with thrombin proteinase and eluted with wash buffer. The BALB/c mice were inoculated with the purified protein. The antisera collected from the mice were used to detect the titres of IgG antibodies by ELISA, and Western blotting was used to identify the specificity of the antisera with the purified CsGAPDH. S-P immunohistochemistry method was used to confirm the expression and distribution of CsGAPDH in adult Clonorchis sinensis with the polyclonal antibodies from immunized BALB/c mice. The CsGAPDH catalytic activity was evaluated employing the conventional substrate glyceraldehydes-3-phosphate (3-GAP). Results SDS-PAGE showed a single purified protein band. Gel scanning analysis revealed that the protein purity of CsGAPDH was 90%. ELISA analysis showed an increased IgG value. S-P immunohistochemistry analysis demonstrated that the recombinant plasmid pGEX-4T-1-GAPDH expressed and distributed in muscle cell membrane of immune mice. Western blotting result suggested that CsGAPDH protein contained essential epitopes with high antigenic activities. This protein CsGAPDH could catalyzed 3-GAP with enzymatic active unit of 2 872 U min~-1ml~-1. Conclusion The recombinant protein CsGAPDH shows a proper enzymatic activity and immunogenicity.

An overall improvement of teaching quality is the core task of the reform and the development of higher education. Based on the analysis of the main factors of affecting the teaching quality in universities and combined with the implementation of “views on improving the overall qual-ity of higher education”by the Education Ministry, countermeasures for improving the teaching quality of undergraduates have been proposed such as increasing higher education funds investment to im-prove the condition of running a school, paying attention to the construction of teaching management staff to improve the level of teaching management, establishing Teacher Development Research Center to consolidate the fundamental position of undergraduate teaching , utilizing the high-quality social resources to implement the collaborative education innovation, and improving the personnel training system to strengthen the teaching quality standard .
