Objective To study the correlation between Candida strains and vulvovaginal candidiasis. Methods Two groups of Candida albicans strains were chosen. Strains of group A and group B were isolated from vaginal discharge of normal women and of patients with candidal vaginitis respectively. The two methods, AMS (automated microbiological detection and identification system) and amino black stain, were applied to detect two phenotypic parameters, biochemical reaction of the strains and secretory capacity of the proteinases respectively, and analogous analysis was performed then. Results There was a significant difference in the levels of adonitol (P

Abstract Objective: To construct the Second half of CILP(C2) MBP fusion protein by sub-cloning technology. Methods: Recombinantfusion proteins, which contain the fragments within the C2 region(designated C2F1, C2F2 and C2F3) of the non-porcine nucleotide pyrophos-phohydrolase-homologous region of CILP, were prepared using pMAL-eHis vector. The recombinat genes are induced by different temperatures(22℃,30℃,37℃ ). Results: Expression using pMAL-eHis system can be induced chemically by adding IPTG. 37℃ temperature prmotes in-soluble inclusion-body formation,but 22℃ temperature can not induce the enough expression of recombinant protein. Onl 30℃ temperaturecan induce enough amount of soluble recombinant protein. The characers of fusion proteins that they carried 6 straight histidines, (His)6, at tbeC-terminus of multiple cloning sites for affinity purification were assessed by sodium dodecy1 sulfate-polyacylamide gel electrophoresis(SDS-PAGE) and Western blot. Nucleotide sequences of the insertion genes were confirmed by dideoxy sequencing. Conclusion: C2F1, C2F2,C2F3-MBP fnsion proteins were constructed successfully.These recombinant proteins may provide important roles in the future study on CILP.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of searching for proteins which interact with intracellular domain of hematopoietic growth factor receptors using yeast two-hybrid system. Methods RT-PCR method was performed to amplify the genes of intracellular domains of G-CSF receptor and EPO receptor in NFS-60 and BET-2 cells of mice. The genes were cloned into yeast expression plasmid pGBKT7 vector,and then transformed into yeast AH109. The yeast proteins were isolated and analyzed with Western blotting. Transcriptional activation was analyzed by the ?-galactosidase colony-lift filter assay. Results The intracellular domains of G-CSF receptor and EPO receptor genes were successfully cloned into pGBKT7 vector. The results of Western blotting assay showed that both proteins were expressed in the yeast cells. The ?-galactosidase colony-lift filter assay demonstrated that G-CSF receptor alone had no activity of transcriptional activation,while the EPO receptor alone could activate transcription. Conclusion The findings suggested that intracellular domain of G-CSF receptor could be used as a bait to find interacting proteins using yeast two-hybrid system,while that of the EPO receptor could not. Therefore the system could not be applied to all hematopoietic factor receptor.

Objective To evaluate the relation of appearance of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) to Ki 67 and C-erbB-2 in breast invasive ductal carcinoma and ductal carcinoma in situ.Methods The appearance of CEUS in 29 patients with breast invasive ductal carcinoma and 12 patients with ductal carcinoma in situ,which was diagnosed by surgery or biopsy,was analysed retrospectively.The Ki-67 and CerbB-2 were measured by immunohistochemical test.The relation of the above two factors to appearance of contrast ultrasonography was analysed.Results The positive rate of Ki-67 was 68.97% (20/29) in patients with breast invasive ductal carcinoma and 16.67% (2/12) in patients with ductal carcinoma in situ.The positive rate of C-erbB-2 was 48.2% (14/29) in patients with breast invasive ductal carcinoma and 42.6% (5/12) in patients with ductal carcinoma in situ.The masses had a common appearance of high enhance in patients with breast invasive ductal carcinoma and ductal carcinoma in situ,which was not correlated to C-erbB-2.The Ki-67 was significantly higher in patients with ductal carcinoma in situ than that in patients with breast invasive ductal carcinoma,the appearance of CEUS was correlated to Ki 67.Conclusions The features of micro-vessels by CEUS were correlated to Ki-67 in patients with breast invasive ductal carcinoma and ductal carcinoma in situ.
