Object To separate and characterize the chemical constituents of a plateau plant Halenia elliptica D Don Methods Elemental analysis (EA), 1HNMR and 13 CNMR, MS, FTIR and UV spectrometry, as well as DSC were employed Results Two needle shaped crystal chemical constituents obtained from H elliptica were confirmed to be 1 hydroxy 3, 7, 8 trimethoxyxanthone and 1, 7 dihydroxy 3, 8 dimethoxyxanthone, respectively Conclusion This is the first time for these two chemical constituents to be separated from this Tibetan medicinal plant

Along with the development of interventional appliances and proficiency of operational skills,the interventional diagnosis and treatment via hepatic portal vein system have achieved great progress and improvement.However,in order to further exploit the advantages of interventional diagnosis and treatment, the review of the anatomical structures,normal aberrance of portal venous system were needed.Getting familiar with pathologic condition to discover the new interventional appliances and embolic agents,and then in term of conduct the research on a very tough substancial base in a down-to-earth manner were important.

Objective:To develop a new preparation process of PLGA microparticles for protein drugs by SPG membrane emulsifi-cation combined with W/O/W double emulsion-solvent technique. Methods:Lysozyme was used as the model drug to prepare the mi-croparticles. The influence of formula factors on the properties of the microparticles was studied, and the physicochemical properties, in vivo compatibility and degradation of the microparticles were investigated as well. Results:The drug loading of lysozyme-loaded mi-croparticles was 35%, the entrapment efficiency was 72. 43% and the average size was 63. 89 μm with PDI of 0. 675. DSC and FTIR showed that lysozyme was entrapped in the microparticles. The microspheres had promising biocompatibility and sustained degradation in vivo. Conclusion:The paper describes a new satisfactory preparation process of PLGA microparticles for protein drugs with good in vitro and in vivo properties.

AIM:To study the changes of tear film and ocular surface after the coaxial micro incision 2. 2mm and 2. 8mm in the phacoemulsification.
METHODS:Eighty-six patients ( One hundred and six eyes ) from 2014/06 to 2016/01 in our hospital were enrolled. The patients were randomly divided into two groups. Forty-four patients ( Fifty-three eyes) in group A: coaxial 2. 2mm micro- incision phacoemulsification cataract extraction and intraocular lens(IOL) implantation;Forty-two patients ( Fifty-three eyes ) in group B: the conventional coaxial 2. 8mm small incision phacoemulsification cataract extraction and IOL implantation. The break up time ( BUT) , dry eye symptom ( DES) score, Schirmer's I test ( SⅠt ) and lid-wiper epitheliopathy ( LWE ) score were assessed preoperatively and postoperatively.
RESULTS:At 1wk, 1 and 2mo postoperatively, the BUT in two groups decreased after operations, and the BUT of group B was significantly lower than those of group A, the differences were statistically significant ( t = 3. 098, 4.512, 4.329; all P < 0. 05 ). The DES score in two groups increased, the DES score of group B was significantly higher than those of group A and the differences were statistically significant (t=-9. 449, -10. 029, -7. 141; all P<0. 05). The SⅠt in two groups increased after operations, the SⅠt of group B was significantly higher than those of group A and the differences were statistically significant (t=-6. 293, -4. 009, -3. 283; all P<0. 05). The LWE score in two groups increased after operations, the LWE score of group B was significantly higher than those of group A and the differences were statistically significant (t=-6. 542,-5. 125, -3. 632; all P<0. 05). At 6mo postoperatively, compared with the preoperative data, the BUT, DES score, S Ⅰ t and LWE score in group A showed no statistically significant differences (t=0. 659, 1. 276, 0. 548, 0.169; P>0. 05). The BUT, DES score, SⅠt and LWE score in group B showed statistically significant differences (t=-4. 063, 7. 306, 3. 621, 4. 208;all P<0. 05).CONCLUSION:Ocular surface has less damage and tear film has little influence at early stage after the coaxial 2.2mm microincision phacoemulsification, compared with the conventional coaxial 2. 8mm incision phacoemulsification surgery.

Objective To know the expression of 47 kD protein of orientia tsutsugamushi(Ot) Karp strain and test its immunogenicity and antigenicity.Methods Forty-seven kD protein gene that code the whole mat peptide was amplified from the genomic DNA of Ot.Karp strain by PCR and constructed to a recombinant plasmid pGEX-47.The E. coli cells BL21 were transformed with pGEX-47,then the transformants were induced to express the recombinant 47 kD protein by IPTG. The antigenicity and immunogeni-(city) were identified by Dot Blot method and the experiment of immunizing mice respectively.Results 1. The PCR product of 47 kD protein gene of Ot.Karp strain was obtained and its sequence was the same as the published 47 kD protein gene.2. The E.coli expression plasmid pGEX-47 constructed was identified containing the 47 kD protein gene fragment by restrication analysis and PCR identification,and an expression band about 47 kD was detected by SDS-PAGE of the purified product from GST-fusson protein expressed by pGEX-47. 3.Dot Blot analysis and the experiment of immunizing mice testified its antigenicity and immunogenicity.Conclusions The 47 kD protein gene of Ot Karp strain is amplified that code the whole mat peptide, which can be expressed in prokaryotic cells and the expressed protein has antigenicity and immunogenicity.

Objective Study the production of the?-lactamases in eight pan-resistant citrobact- er freandi and their epidemic characteristics.Methods Modified Hodge test and EDTA-disk syner- gy test were used to screen Metallo-?-lactarnases,and isoelectric focusing to estimate the production of ESBLs and AmpC enzymes.ESBLs,AmpC,MBL genes were amplified and analyzed by PCR and DNA sequencing.Molecular epidemics were investigated by PFGE.Results All the 8 strains pro- duced TEM-1,CTX-M-14,4 of them at the same time producing CTX-M-3.No Plasmid mediated AmpC was found.Furthermore,a new subtype of MBL with one amino acid different from IMP-8 was de- tected.All the 8 strains belong to the same PFGE type.Conclusions Pan-drug-resistant citrobacter freundi produced more than one kind of?-lactamases.All these isolates were clonally related.
