Gene therapy of spinal cord injury (SCI) is the most promising method compared with the others, because it doesn't involve the problems of resource and higher exclusion which respectively exists in fetal nerve transplantation and peripheral nerve transplantation. There are two ways of gene therapy to be chosen: one is to transfer objective genes to the target-cells in vivo directly; the other is to transfer objective genes to one proper kind of transplantable cells firstly, then graft the highest expressing cells to the target-cells in vivo. To realize the transfer of genes to cells, two measures are used in common: physical or chemical measure such as micro infection et al and biochemical measure i. e. gene modified defective virus. Although there are some questions unresolved in this field, the clinical value of gene therapy of SCI in the future is depended.

CONCLUSIONS Strict sterilizing procedures and standardized monitoring are the important measures to reduce the nosocomial infection.

Objective To explore the application effect of Sandwich teaching method in clinical teaching in the department of neurosurgery.Methods Totally 144 clinical medicine students were divided into 2 groups:Sandwich teaching group (n=72) and traditional teaching group (n=72).The analysis of test and the questionnaire of the students were conducted after the course.Comparison between the two groups was made using independent sample t test and measurement data were expressed as as ± s.P＜0.05 signifies statistically significant differences.Rank sum test was used to compare the distribution of the test scores.Results The test score was statistically higher in Sandwich teaching group than control group [(76.38 ± 10.84) vs.(69.67 ± 10.50)].And the main distribution of the test scores was 70～90 in Sandwich teaching group while 60～80 in control group.Questionnaire showed that the scores of Sandwich teaching group were statistically higher than those ofthe control group in five aspects such as enhancing self-learning ability,improving the ability to analyze and solve problems,and so on.Conclusions Sandwich teaching method achieves good teaching effect and it is worth recommending in clinical teachifig.

Objective To obtain the short peptides from phage-displayed random peptide library through screening the epitope of monoclonal antibody against tumor necrosis factor(TNF-?). Methods Anti-TNF-? was used to immunoscreen a phage random peptide library of 12 amino-acidresidues displayed as a fusion to protein Ⅲ of filamentous phage M13. The positive clones were obtained by three rounds of biopanning, and the reactivity of each clone binding to anti-TNF-? was examined by double-antibody sandwich ELISA and Dot-ELISA. Mixed positive phage clones were used to detect the serum from SLE patients and healthy persons by Dot-ELISA. Results The eluted phages were enriched nearly 100 fold through three rounds of biopanning, 7 phage clones from the third round biopanning were randomly selected and 5 clones of them could bind to the anti-TNF-?. The binding rate of mixed clones with SLE patients was significantly higher than that of healthy persons. Conclusion The phage display technique can be applied to study the anti-TNF-? antigenic peptides, and these epitopes provide the potential for developing immunodiagnostic reagents of vaccines.

Biotechnology supremacy is a newly-advanced power theory. It is a superior dominance of military biotechnological application based on the microcosm of life structure within a certain period of time. The advancement of biotechnology supremacy and modern biotechnology has created the concept of bio-micro-frontier, which involves information and defense resources of all living ultra-micro-organisms with national and regional characteristics. Being feasible both in theory and practice, the implementation of bio-micro-frontier system is strategically important. This article explores the implementation of bio-micro-frontier in terms of strategy and tactics, which will add a unique dimension to future military transformation and active defense.

Objective To summarize and discuss the diagnostic and treating experiences of chronic pancreatitis with mass in the head. Methods Eight patients of chronic pancreatitis with mass in the head who were misdiagnosised as carcinoma of head of pancreas were analyzed retrospectively in the past 10 years. Results All the patients exhibited abdominal pain,5 of whom were with jaundice and 3 with anorexia. All the patients were misdiagnosised as carcinoma of head of pancreas before the operation,but the pathology after operation indicated chronic pancreatitis. The pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed in 5 patients,the choledochojejunostomy in 2 patients,while the exploratory laparotomy in 1 patient. After the operations,the abdominal pain was relieved in 7 patients, while 2 patients who accepted pancreatoduodenectomy suffered from pancreatic fistula,1 of whom died in the end. Conclusion It’s hard to differentiate the chronic pancreatitis with mass in the head from the carcinoma of head of pancreas before operation. If the carcinoma of head of pancreas can’t be excluded during the operation,the pancreatoduodenectomy should be performed,while the duodenum-preserving total resection of the head of the pancreas or any intra-drainage operations should be done if chronic inflammation is found in the whole pancreas with a negative result of the biopsy of the pancreas through the needle aspiration.

Objective:To investigate the reversing effect of recombinant mutant human tumor necrosis factor (rmh-TNF) on cisplatin(DDP)-resistant human ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3/DDP in vitro and the related mechanism. Methods: DDP-resistant human ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3/DDP was cultured in vitro. The cytotoxic effect of rmh-TNF to SKOV3/DDP cells was examined by MTT assay and the nontoxic dose of rmh-TNF was identified. The changes of DDP resistance was observed after cells were treated with nontoxic dose of rmh-TNF by MTT assay. The expre-ssion of GST-? protein was examined by flow cytometry at different periods after rmh-TNF intervention; RT-PCR was used to analyze the expression of MDR1gene in SKOV3/DDP cells before and after rmh-TNF treatment. Results:(1)rmh-TNF at 50-122.34 U/ml showed no evident inhibitory effect on the growth of SKOV3/DDP cells (the cell survival rate higher than 90%); and 100 U/ml was chosen for the reversing experiment ( nontoxic dose).(2)IC50 values of SKOV3/DDP cells were (23.29?0.43), (8.97?0.69) and (6.43?0.79) ?g/ml after treatment with DDP for 24, 48 and 72 h, respectively; and the values decreased to (19.50?0.50),(4.34?0.43) and (2.44?0.02)?g/ml after combined treatment with 100 U/ml rmh-TNF, respectively.(3)Expression of GST-? protein and MDR1gene decreased with the prolongation of rmh-TNF treatment. Conclusion: rmh-TNF has reversal effect on the DDP-resistant cell line SKOV3/DDP, and the mechanism may be associated with the down-regulation of GST-? protein and MDR1gene expression.

Objective To explore and evaluate the micro-anatomic structure of posterior-middle cra nial fossa in the retrosigmoid keyhole approach for clinical application. Methods Ten formalin-fixed adult cadaver heads of 20 sides were used to apply the retrosigmoid keyhole approach to reach and observe the structure of posterior-middle cranial fossa.Results The retrosigmoid keyhole approach can reach petroclival region from post-lateral aspect and through this approach the lateral potion of cerebellar hemisphere、petrosal bone,CN Ⅴ,Ⅶ,Ⅷ,part of CN Ⅸ-Ⅻ,lateral potion of pons、vertebral artery and anterior inferior cerebellavar artery can be exposed cleady.Resecting part of supra-tubercle of IAM can enlarge the exposure of IAM and CN V.After cutting off the edge of tentorial part of CN Ⅳ and middle cranial fossa can be exposed.Conclusion Through retrosigmoid keyhole approach we can use the small but compatible bone hole to diminish the ineffective exposure of the cerebellum.Meanwhile the wound because of the approach and complication can be cut down.It's an effective,safe and convenience approach in clinical application to resect the tumor mainly located in posterior cranial fossa.

One hundred and five patients with non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome were followed up for 1 year.They were assigned to the event group or non-event group according to the presence of endpoint events(cardiac death and nonfatM myocardial infarction).B-type natriuretic peptide level was measured at 30 days and 1 year and compared between the two groups.The results showed that the level of B-type natriuretic peptide was higher in the event group[(235±107)μg/L vs(154±49)μg/L at 30 days;(259±100)μg/L vs(143±57)μg/L at 1 year].Thus,B-type natriuretic peptide is an important prognostic factor for patients with non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome.
