Objective:To construct a THANK adenovirus vector and observe expression of THANK in SMMC-7721 cell line after THANK adenovirus infection. Methods: Human THANK cDNA was cloned into shuttle vector pAdTrack-CMV, and the resultant plasmid was linearized and subsequently cotransformed into E.coli BJ5183 with an adenoviral backbone plasmid pAdEasy-1.Recombinants were then selected and the linearized recombinant plasmid was transfected into 293 cell lines. Finally, THANK recombinant adenovirus production was observed by fluorescent microscope and confirmed by PCR and Western blot analysis. Further THANK adenovirus were used to infect SMMC-7721 cells with different MOI. The expression of THANK in SMMC-7721 cells was observed by fluorescent microscope and by PCR and Western blot analysis. Results: A human THANK recombinant adenovirus vector was constructed and infected SMMC-7721 cell line with high efficiency. The expression of THANK in SMMC-7721 cells was over 35 ng/ml 5 d after transfection. Conclusion: Adenovirus can induce stable expression of THANK in SMMC-7721 cells.

Aim To analyze THANK gene expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) stimulated with different stimulators and to clone whole length human THANK gene. Methods PBMC were conventionally isolated and cultured in RPMI1640 containing 10％ FCS. After stimulated with LPS,TNF α ,IL 2,IFN γ ,PHA or PMA,the THANK gene expression in PBMCs was analyzed by RT PCR and THANK cDNA was cloned. Result RT PCR detection showed that THNAK gene expressed in PBMCs after stimulated with interferon γ for 3 days, whereas THANK'expression could not be detected after stimulated with LPS,TNF α ,IL 2,IFN γ ,PHA or PMA respectively. Then THANK gene was cloned by cloning PCR product and sequenced. Conclusion Human THANK gene is cloned successfully, thus providing the possibility for further research of THANK'function.

Objective To analyze the long-term results of fractionated stereotactie radiotherapy(FSRT)for the local residual lesion after the first course of radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods From July 1997 to July 2002,46 patients were treated with FSRT.According to the 1992 Fuzhou staging system,the number of patients was 1,6,30 and 9 with stage Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ disease,respectirely;3,11,27 and 5 with T1,T2,T3 and T4 tumor,respectively;14,16,12 and 4 with N0,N1,N2and N3 disease.Radiotherapy was delivered to tumors with the total of dose 68-70 Gy in 7-8w.Chemotherapy(2 cycles of PVF or POF)was given to the patients with stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ a disease.FSRT was given to the residual disease with the total dose of 18-24 Gy in 3 fractions with an interval of 3-7 days.The reference dose line was 70%-90%.Resuits CR and PR rates in this group were 61%and 39%,respectively.The overall survival rates of each year from 1- to 5-year were 100%,87%,83%,78%and 76%.The 1-,3- and 5-year disease-free survival rates were 100%,93%and 89%;The distant metastasis-free survival rates were 100%,85%and 79%;The local-regional control survival rates were 100%,94%and 91%.Seventeen patients who died during the follow-up period were 1 for local cervical lymph node recurrence,2 for fatal nasopharyngeal hemorrhage,4 for local nasopharynx recurrence,and 10 for distance metastases. Conclusions Fraetionated stereotactic radiotherapy is safe and effective for the patients with residual lesion of nasopharyngeal carcinoma at the primary site after radiotherapy.The optimized fractionation and total dose requires the further investigation.

Objective:To study the bone regeneration capacity of the complex of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs) and platelet rich plasma (PRP) with decellularized cartilage matrix (DCM).Methods:BMSCs were isolated from young rabbit and cultured;PRP were prepared from the fresh blood of rabbit and the DCM were come from the fresh ears of rabbits and processed into a mixture of BMSCs-PRP-DCM.The mixture was injected subcutaneously into nude mice,8 weeks after injection bone regeneration was examine by HE staining and Massons staining decellularization.Results:The BMSCs show good differentiation capacity in vitro and the cartilage fragments were well decellularized.Excellent endochondral ossification ability of the complex was observed by in vivo experiment.Conclusion:The BMSCs-PRP-DCM complex has good capacity of endochondral ossification.

OBJECTIVE To explore the canonical prevention and management method to improve the control quality and safety against hospital infection in outpatient operating room. METHODS To strengthen infection institution,nosocomial control,and operating room management actually,constitute effective disinfection,isolation,and deal of measure. RESULTS By strengthening quality of hospital outpatient operating room,to improve the medical care quality. CONCLUSIONS According to canonical scientific management,to favor the quality and safety of infection prevention in operating room.

Objective To explore the correlation between change of blood lipid and MSCT perfusion imaging in steroid-induced femoral head necrosis in adult rabbits.Methods 20 rabbits 1~1.5 years old in age were divided into two group:16 rabbits in experimental group,8 mg/kg Methylprednisolone was injected twice a week;4 rabbits were used as control group.At 2,4,6,8 week after injection,4 rabbits in experimental group and 1 rabbit in contral group were killed respectively.Before killing the rabbits,the blood lipid was examined and MSCT perfusion imaging was done and the correlation between them was analysed.The index of TRIG,CHOL,Perfusion,PEI,TTP,MTT.All femoral heads were undergone pathological investigation.Results Two weeks after injection,blood lipid began increasing,then blood flow of femoral head decreasing obviously with prolongation of injection;PEI and MTT decrease only 4 weeks after injection.There were a negaitive correlation between blood lipid and blood flow of femoral head.Conclusion There were obviously correlation between the level of increasing blood lipid and blood flow decreasing in steroid-induced avascular necrosis of femoral head in rabbit.

Objective To establish a rat model of glioma for MRI study.Methods Fischer 344 rats were inoculated with F98 glioma cells in caudate nucleus by stereotaxic procedure.MRI scanning and pathology examination were performed to observe the tumor growth on 6,8,10,12,and 14 d, respectively,after inoculation and their survival was also analyzed.Results After inoculation,tumors were found in all rats by MRI as early as 6 days.Most of rats died on 14 d after inoculation.The volume of tumor increased as the inoculation time lengthened.The tumor volume measured by MRI was larger than actual size by autopsy,but the both correlated positively(r=0.91,P

Objective To observe the effect of robot-assisted upper limb training on the recovery of upper limb motor function after stroke.Methods One hundred patients within one month of suffering a stroke were randomly divided into a control group (50 cases) and a therapy group (50 cases).Both groups were given conventional drug therapy and rehabilitation training,while the therapy group also received robot-assisted training once a day,5 days per week for 12 weeks.The Fugl-Meyer assessment for the upper extremities (FMA-UE),the modified Ashworth scale (MAS) and the modified Barthel index (MBI) were used to evaluate the subjects before the experiment and after 4,8 and 12 weeks of treatment.Results During the treatment,the average FMA-UE scores and the average MBI of both groups increased gradually.The treatment group's averages were significantly better than those of the control group at each time point,except that there was no significant difference in elbow and wrist MAS scores.Conclusion Upper limb robots can be used with acute stroke patients in a clinical setting,and they may be beneficial for improving upper limb function and ability in the activities of daily living.
