Objective To prepare recombinant plasminogen activator(Pla) protein in E.coli BL21 cells that can be used in studying interactions between Yersinia pestis proteins and immunologic diagnosis of plague.Methods The pla gene was amplified by PCR and cloned into the pET28a expression vector.E.coli BL21 competent cells were transformed with the recombinant vectors, and isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside ( IPTG) was added to induce expression of Pla protein. The expressed protein was detected by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis.The inclusion bodies of Pla protein were denatured in 8 mol/L urea, and then refolded using gradient urea solutions.The purified protein was identified by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and Western blot.Results and Conclusion The constructed expression vector was demonstrated to be correct through agarose gel electrophoresis and sequencing.The recombinant Pla protein was accumulated as an inclusion body in E.coli, and the overexpression product was mainly a target protein, the yield of which was very high.SDS-PAGE purity of the bioactive Pla protein was obtained by denaturing and refolding the inclusion bodies.This study provides a simple and quick method for highly efficient preparation of biologically active Pla protein.

The gene of mutated TNF-?D4 gene was amplified by overlap PCR and cloned into the prokaryotic expressive vector pBV220.TNF-?D4 contains two changes:substitutions of Pro8Arg,Ser9Lys,Asp10Arg,Ile157Phe,Leu29Ser,Arg31Val and a deletion of the N terminal four amino acids.The recombinant vector pBV220-TNF-?D4 was transformated into E.coli strain DH5?,and the high expression strain was obtained by screening monoclones.The level of expression was about 45% of total cell protein.After purification,the purity of fusion protein was above 90% by HPLC and relative ability was 8 ?107.TNF-?D4 was modificated by mPEG-ButyrALD。After purification,the purity of mPEG-TNF-?D4 was above 85% and relative ability was 8.6?107.The in vivo systemic toxicity of mPEG-TNF-?D4,which is indicated by LD50,is lower than that of rhTNF-?.These results strongly supported for the further study and exploitation of TNF-antitumor drug.

Objective To explore the clinical application of first class nursing evaluation list in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures after surgery.Methods Totally 100 patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures hospitalized in the Department of Spinal Surgery of our hospital were selected from February 2014 to February 2016 by convenience sampling. 50 patients selected from February 2014 to January 2015 were divided into the control group, while 50 patients selected from February 2015 to February 2016 were divided into the observation group. Patients in the control group received routine nursing evaluation sheet for inspecting and supervising the implementation of postoperative nursing measure, while patients in the observation group also received the postoperative first class nursing evaluation list about osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures for inspecting and supervising the implementation of postoperative nursing measures. The ability of daily life, nursing satisfaction and quality of care of patients between the two groups were compared.Results The Barthel index score of patients in the observation group one week after surgery was (84.39±12.75), health education in nursing satisfaction (4.31±0.65), service attitude (4.36±0.31), nursing process (4.38±0.33), nursing effect (4.12±0.41), the nursing measure omission rate 4%, and the pass rate of quality of care 98%; while in the control group, the Barthel index score was (50.15±9.89) (one week after surgery), health education (3.46±0.58), service attitude (3.7±0.50), nursing process (3.75±0.52), nursing effect (3.34±0.47), nursing measure omission rate(30%), the pass rate of quality of care 80% (P<0.05). Conclusions Application of first class nursing evaluation list can greatly improve the recovery situation of patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures, and it also can improve the ability of daily living and nursing quality, so it is worth clinical promotion.

Objective To establish competent characteristic system and a level standard model for orthopedic specialized nurses.Methods From October 2016 to March 2017, a total of 40 medical and nursing specialists from 10 provinces and cities were selected by convenience sampling methods as specialist consultants. Two rounds of Delphi specialist consultation were conducted on 7 primary indexes and 58 secondary indexes of the competent characteristic system for orthopedic specialized nurses which was primarily confirmed by literature search. The index names were modified, merged or deleted according to experts' opinion and statistical analysis results. At last, 12 experts in Beijing area were selected, and the typical behavior event interview method was adopted to determine the level standards of the secondary indexes.Results The experts' authority coefficient was 0.91. The effective recovery rates of questionnaires of the two rounds expert consultation were 95.00% and 92.11% respectively. The primary indexes consists of 7 indicators: clinical decision (0.1500), nursing practice (0.1543), management (0.1356), communication(0.1422), legal ethics(0.1289), professional development (0.1364) and education(0.1322). Twenty-eight items of secondary index were confirmed, and Likert Scale was applied to determine the level standards of secondary index and describe typical behavior. Level 1 to 5 of Likert Scale was corresponding to the levels to orthopedic specialist nurse's career planning respectively, including entry-level, qulified, competent, proficient, and expert level.Conclusions The evaluation indicators recommended in specialist consultation meet the specialized nurse competent characteristics, and quantitative evaluation of specialized nurses can be achieved by the level standard system. The evaluation and level standard system can analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the subjects, to achieve evaluation, education, management and career planning for orthopedic specialized nurse.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the significance of Rac subfamily members in the gastrointestinal carcinogenesis and progression.
METHODSThe mRNA expression of Rac1, Rac2 and Rac3 in 12 kinds of gastrointestinal cancer cell lines was examined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. The activities of Rac1 protein in 5 kinds of gastric cancer cell lines were tested by pull-down assay.
RESULTSCompared with the normal gastric mucosa and intestinal epithelial cell line, the mRNA expression of Rac1 and Rac3 was up-regulated in most of gastrointestinal cancer cell lines. The activities of Rac1 protein increased markedly in gastric cancer cell lines.
CONCLUSIONThe increased mRNA expression of Rac1 and Rac3 in gastrointestinal cancer cell lines and the abnormal activation of Rac1 protein in gastric cancer cell lines might be correlated with the carcinogenesis of gastrointestinal cancer.
