Objective To investigate the characteristics of spontaneous discharges of hippocampal pyramidal cells (PC) in rats in age and memory groups with the help of nonlinear theory. Methods Rats were randomly divided into age group and memory group. Age group included aged group (16-19 months) and young group (3-4 months) whereas memory group included good memory and poor memory groups in adult. Extracellular single cell recording was performed in vivo . Results No characteristics of the rhythm of spontaneous discharges of hippocampal pyramidal cells in distribution figure of interspike interval(ISI) were found, but the loss of complexity(C) and low percentage of favored patterns(PF) were found in age and poor memory groups. Conclusion The ISI complexity and the PF of the hippocampal pyramidal cells are correlated to age and memory, suggesting that the analysis of the complexity and favored patterns may be helpful for the discovery of the characteristics of the information coding in spontaneous discharges of hippocampal pyramidal cells.

Objective The aim of this study is production of organ specific animal model for studying reproductive toxicity in mice.Methods F1 generation was gotten by mating the Ddx4 -cre transgenic male mice with the Rosa26mT/mG transgenic female mice.F1 offspring and its parents phenotype was screened by molecular biological, histopathological and in vivo imaging technology.Results At molecular level, specific DNA fragment was only found in testis of F1 offspring; At the organ level, the expression of green fluorescent protein could only be observed in testis of F1 offspring; Testicular frozen sections and sperm fluorescence observation showed that green fluorescent protein were mainly expressed in the germ cell lineage such as secondary spermatocyte and spermatocyte and spermatozoon.Conclusions The production of the mice with specific germ cell expressed green fluorescent protein by Cre/loxP recombination system were built successfully.

Autism spectrum disorder(ASD)is a highly heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder with a complex underlying genetic structure.Current preclinical trials,however,mainly rely on rodent models to test the effects of non-pharmacological and pharmacological interventions on the core and related symptoms of ASD.This paper considers the brain regions that affect social interaction behaviors from the perspective of cognitive neural mechanisms,and reviews behavioral testing experiments,such as the three-chamber social interaction test,visible burrow system,and eco-HAB system.We also summarize effective non-pharmacological and pharmacological interventions,such as baclofen,oxytocin,and metformin,in the core and related symptom areas of ASD.This review aims to provide reference directions to promote the development of preclinical trials using rodent models.

How to give full play to the advantages of rehabilitation institutions, and to improve service quality and administration efficiency are some of the complex issues faced by the high-level administrators of rehabilitation institutions. This paper studied a total of 67 institutions to investigate the operation and management model of rehabilitation institutions in China, as well as their advantages and disadvantages.

The establishment of an efficient performance management system is crucial for a rehabilitation institution. This article discussed the concept of performance, performance management and ways to establish an efficient performance management system.

Objective To construct a recombinant poxvirus vector vaccine, rVTTδTK-RBD, and to evaluate its safety and immunogenicity. Methods The receptor-binding domain (RBD) gene was synthesized with reference to the gene sequence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and was inserted into the polyclonal site of the self-constructed recombinant plasmid pSTKE, to construct the recombinant poxvirus shuttle vector pSTKE-RBD. This was then transfected into BHK-21 cells pre-infected with the vaccinia virus Tiantan strain (VTT). The recombinant poxvirus rVTTδTK-RBD was successfully obtained after several rounds of fluorescence phage screening. The effect of rVTTδTK-RBD on the body mass of BALB/c mice was detected after immunizing mice by intra-nasal vaccination. The levels of specific and neutralizing antibodies produced by rVTTδTK-RBD on BALB/c mice were analyzed after immunizing mice intramuscularly. The effect of rVTTδTK-RBD on T cell subsets in BALB/c mice was detected by flow cytometry. Results Through homologous recombination, enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) screening marker, and multiple rounds of fluorescent phosphorescence phage screening, a recombinant poxvirus rVTTδTK-RBD, expressing RBD with deletions in the thymidine kinase (TK) gene, was successfully obtained, which was validated by PCR. The in vivo experiments on BALB/c mice showed that rVTTδTK-RBD was highly immunogenic against SARS-CoV-2 and significantly reduced toxicity to the body compared to the parental strain VTT. Conclusion The recombinant poxvirus vaccine rVTTδTK-RBD against SARS-CoV-2 is successfully constructed and obtained, with its safety and immunogenicity confirmed through various experiments.
