The Coat protein and Maturase gene of E.coli bacteriophage MS2 was amplified by PCR,then the gene was cloned into pET32a to construct the intermediate vector pET32aCP.The conservative sequence of FMDV internal ribosome entry site(IRES) was cloned into the downstream of pET32aCP bacteriophage gene to construct the prokaryotic expression vector pCPES.The recombinant plasmid pCPES transformed into E.coli strain BL21(DE3) was induced to express with 1mmol/L IPTG.The expression products were purified by sucrose density gradient centrifugation.The expression products observed by TEM were circular viruslike particles,and the diameter of these particles was about 26nm.The stability of viruslike particles was detected,and the viruslike particles was identified by RTPCR.The results showed that the viruslike particles contain the FMDV IRES RNA and have good stability.The viruslike particles have great prospect as the standard and quality control in the area of RNA virus detection.

Objective To discuss the effect of daidzein on hepatocellular carcinoma SMMC7721 cell proliferation CD133 expression on tumor stem cell.Methods Hepatocellular carcinoma SMMC7721 cells were cultured,digested and passaged,and divided into six groups with different drug:control group with no daidzein,100 μg/mL daidzein group,200μg/mL daidzein group,300μg/mL daidzein group,400μg/mL daidzein group ,500μg/mL daidzein.The inhibition ratio,hexokinase,alkaline phosphatase and CD133 levels in SMMC7721 cell were detected and compared at 24 h,48 h,72 h among those groups. Results The inhibition ratio was increased by Daidzein dose increasing,and decreased apparently by times extending,especially in 400μg/mL and 500μg/mL daidzeingroups.Compared with control group,the hexokinase and alkaline phosphatase activity and CD133 expression were decreased apparently in groups treated with daidzein(P<0.01).The more the dose,the higher the drop(P<0.01).Conclusion Daidzein can inhibit hepatocellular carcinoma SMMC7721 cell proliferation,and inhibit CD133 expression on tumor stem cell.

Purpose:To investigate method of early detection of breast cancer with microcalcification observed by mammograph but without palpable mass clinlcally.Methods:Stereotatic core needle biopsy (SCNB) were performed in 35 patients with calcification observed by mammography,and 29 people received stereotatic needle localized breast biopsies (NLBB).All tissues were routinely processed.Microscopic analysis of calcification and morphologic analysis of calcifica- tion were done,as well as histologic diagnosis.Results:Among the 35 specimens of SCNB,microscopic calcification,in- traductal carcinoma and invasive ductal carcinoma were detected in 24,8,and 4 respectively.Calcification was identified in 25 of the 29 cases of NLBB.Five cases of intraductal carcinoma,six cases of invasive ductal carcinoma as well as one case of invasive lobular carcinoma were diagnosed in these 29 patients.Conclusions:With close cooperation among pathol- ogists,surgeons and radiologists,the application of SCNB and NLBB may benefit the early detection of breast cancer with microcalcification observed by mammograph but without mass being palpable clinically and finaly improve the survival of breast cancer patients.
