piRNA is a novel class of small single strand RNA that were recently isolated from testes of the mammals. These RNAs are bigger (26～31 nt) than most previously described small RNAs (21～23 nt) and are associated with Piwi-subfamily members of the Argonaute protein family.

Objective To evaluate the application of Web problem-based learning (WPBL) mode of respiratory system integration curriculum.Methods Experimentclasses 1 and 2 of the 2014 grades of the Qiqihar Medical University were divided into control group(48 students) and experiment group (48 students).Traditional PBL teaching was conducted in control group:the contents of the case were printed and discussed with the material of each class.WPBL teaching was conducted in experiment group:autonomous learning before class,showing cases by Video,asking questions and discussion in group and reporting results in class.The teaching effect was evaluated by PBL evaluation form,questionnaire and final grade.SSPS 19.0 statistical software was used for data analysis and measurement.T test was conducted among groups.Counting data were tested by Chi-square and the results were expressed as percentage.Results The students in the experiment group were better than those of control groupin the aspects of contents understanding,course interest,clinical thinking ability,classroom atmosphere and the course attitude.The scores of PBL (16.65 ±2.82),experiment exam (8.21 ±0.44) and final grade(76.77 ± 12.31) in the experiment group were higher than those in the control group.There are statistical differences in two groups (P＜0.05).Conclusions WPBL teaching can improve students'learning interest,clinical thinking ability and improve the teaching quality of respiratory integration curriculum.

Facing the challenge of the COVID-19 epidemic to the classroom teaching, the physiology teaching team of Qiqihar Medical University constructed a blended teaching model based on "small private online course (SPOC)+ live real audio" to carry out online teaching. Through the joint efforts of all team members, the online teaching has been carried out in a stable order for 4 weeks, thus ensuring the teaching effect of physiology. Taking the physiology teaching of 236 nursing undergraduates in Batch 2019 as an example, this paper introduces the teaching design, implementation measures, teaching effect and teaching reflection of carrying out online teaching under the epidemic situation, and provides practical experience for further promoting online teaching in medical colleges and universities during epidemic prevention and control.

UHRF2 is a ubiquitin-protein ligase E3 that regulates cell cycle, genomic stability and epigenetics. We conducted a co-immunoprecipitation assay and found that TIP60 and HDAC1 interact with UHRF2. We previously demonstrated that UHRF2 regulated H3K9ac and H3K14ac differentially in normal and cancer cells. However, the accurate signal transduction mechanisms were not clear. In this study, we found that TIP60 acted downstream of UHRF2 to regulate H3K9ac and H3K14ac expression. TIP60 is stabilized in normal cells by UHRF2 ubiquitination. However, TIP60 is destabilized in cancer cells. Depletion or inhibition of TIP60 disrupts the regulatory relationship between UHRF2, H3K9ac and H3K14ac. In summary, the findings suggest that UHRF2 mediated the post-translational modification of histones and the initiation and progression of cancer.
