The TSR1(thermosensitive rescued)gene associated with the secretion of proteins of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica was site-directed mutagenesis,restricted and spliced to obtain a series of deletion mutants.These mutants would be useful for studing the function of different domains of TSR1 gene in yeast Yarrowia lipolytica

Objective To explore whether the presence of juxtapapillary duodenal diverticula (JPDD) risks biliary stone disease and recurrence.Methods 829 patients undergoing ERCP in our hospital from Aug 2008 to Dec 2012 were divided into four groups:biliary stone disease (n =609) non-stone biliary abnormality (n =124) common bile duct malformation with cholelithiasis (n =38) and normal control group (n =58).There were 206 patients with JPDD and 623 patients without JPDD.Biliary stoneformation,post-ERCP pancreatitis,cannulation failure,and stone recurrence were compared between those with JPDD and those without.Results The incidence of JPDD in biliary stone disease group (27.8％) was significantly higher than in non-stone biliary anatomical abnormality group (18.5 ％) (x2 =4.512,P ＜ 0.05).In biliary stone disease group,rates of post-ERCP pancreatitis were significantly higher in JPDD cases (33.7％) compared to those without JPDD (13.8％) (x2 =30.841,P ＜ 0.05).The cannulation failure rate was also higher in patients with JPDD (15.4％) compared to JPDD negative (6.8％) (x2 =0.731,P ＜0.05).Recurrence rates in biliary stone disease were significantly higher in patients with JPDD (19.5％) when compared to JPDD-lacking individuals (9.3％) (x2 =14.51,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions JPDD is a risk factor for biliary stone formation.JPDD also is associated with post-ERCP pancreatitis,cannulation failure and biliary stone recurrence.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of dermatosis affecting pilots in different areas. Methods From Oct. 2007 to Sep. 2008,epidemiological investigation and clinical examination were carried out in 255 pilots stationed at Beijing,Tianjin,Hubei and Shaanxi regions. In order to get the correct diagnosis of dermatosis and the accurate number of infection cases/time,same medication and management were applied for the treatment of those skin disorders. The epideomology of dermatosis in pilots of different troops and age groups were then compared,and the correlation factors affecting the epidemics were analyzed with Chi-square test. Results Among 255 pilots,430 cases (times) were found to suffer from 47 kinds of dermatosis,of whom 72% suffered from two or more kinds of dermatosis. The incidence of superficial mycosis (69.8%) took ranked the highest. The incidence of dermatosis was different among the pilots stationed in different regions. The prevalence of lichen simplex chronicus was higher in the pilots stationed in Beijing,Tianjin and Shaanxi regions than in those in Hubei region,while the prevalence of tinea manuum and tinea pedis showed the opposite status (P 7 year enlistment (P

A novel nucleic acid amplification method,termed loop-mediated isothermal amplification(LAMP),which amplifies DNA with high specificity,efficiency,and rapidity under isothermal conditions,may be a valuable tool for the rapid detection of infectious diseases.This method employs a DNA polymerase that have activity of strand displacement DNA synthesis and a set of four specially designed primers that recognize a total of six distinct sequences on the target DNA.LAMP can amplify a few copies of DNA to 109 in less than an hour.The final products are stem-loop DNA with several inverted repeats of the target and cauliflower-like structures with multiple loops.A positive reaction would be shown as a ladder-like pattern in a gel electrophoresis analysis.Because of the advantage,the LAMP method will be widely applied to research of nucleic acid,clinical diagnosis of infectious diseases and detection of genetically modified organisms etc.

Antimicrobial peptides are a class of small peptides with anti-extrogenous pathogen activities.They are derived from organism and possess antibacterial,antifungus,antiviruses and anticancer cell actions.In recent years,it’s found that some microbial pathogens are able to resist antimicrobial peptides.The constitutive and inducible mechanism of a pathogen resists a given peptide were reviewed in this paper.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of earlier rehabilitation on activities of daily living(ADL) of patients with spinal cord injury(SCI).Methods50 SCI patients received earlier rehabilitation and improvement of ADL of patients was evaluated.ResultsAfter two months treatment,the scores of Barthel index,functional independence measure(FIM) grade of patients increased significantly compared with that of before treatment(P<0.05) and ADL improved.ConclusionEarlier rehabilitation can improve ADL of SCI patients.

Objective Obtaining chemical constituents of Angelica apaensis collected in Qiaojia County of Yunnan Province and detecting their anti-tumor activities in vitro. Methods The MeOH extract of was repeatedly subjected to column chromatography over silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 and/or RP-18 and semipreparative HPLC. Their anti-tumor activities in vitro were measured by MTT colorimetric assay. Results Eight compounds were isolated from the roots of this plant. Conclusion The major type of chemical constituents of in Yunnan is furocoumarin. These separated compounds showed weak anti-tumor activity in vitro.
