OBJECTIVETo detect the expressing levels of human tissue-plasminogen activator(t-PA) in AGZY83-a cells transfected with pcDNA3.1(+) t-PA in vivo and the feasibility of using transplantation of cells for gene therapy of thrombotic diseases.
METHODSExpression vectors containing the t-PA cDNA gene were transfected into AGZY83-a cells. The transfected AGZY83-a cells were implanted into mice in different regions, and the plasma levels of human t-PA were assayed at intervals.
RESULTSThe plasma levels of human t-PA were significantly increased in mice after implantation of transfected AGZY83-a cells and were significantly higher than those of control groups implanted with untransfected AGZY83-a cells. This significant increase lasted at least 105 days. The intraperitoneal implantation group expressed the highest level of human t-PA, a little higher than that of the subcutis implantation group, while both are much higher than that of the quadriceps femoris implantation group which expressed the lowest.
CONCLUSIONThe implanted transfected AGZY83-a cells are able to stably express high levels of human t-PA, and transplantation of cells transfected with pcDNA3.1(+) t-PA is a new promising method for gene therapy of thrombotic diseases.

Objective:
To understand comprehensive sexuality education knowledge among junior high school students in China, and to analyze relevant influencing factors to provide scientific basis for the implementation of school based sexuality education or comprehensive sexuality education in the future.
Methods:
By using convenient sampling method, a cross sectional survey was conducted among 4 545 students at grade 1 to grade 3 from junior middle schools in Beijing, Liaoning, Sichuan, Chongqing, Yunnan, Henan, using an online electronic questionnaire during September to October 2021. The questionnaire included general demographic information, subjective social status, sex education received at home and school, bullying, as well as knowledge, attitude, practice and needs towards comprehensive sexuality education.
Results:
The average score of the comprehensive sexuality education knowledge was (12.21±3.10) points, which was converted to (71.82±18.21) points based on the percentage based system. The scores varied by grade, sex and sexuality education setting, significantly higher in grade 3 students (12.69±2.99), girls (12.28±3.01) ( P < 0.01), and students who have received sex education at home (12.67±2.88) and students who received sex education at school (12.63±2.91), as well as those who had actively searched for sex information online had a higher score (12.71±2.94) ( t =35.10, 28.78, 10.55, P <0.01).Further analysis using multiple linear regression and Logistic regression, "whether you have received sex education at home" "whether you have received sex education at school" "whether you have searched the Internet actively" and "whether it is necessary to carry out comprehensive sex education" are still correlated with the score of comprehensive sex education knowledge; "self reported bullying" was still associated with "subjective social status" score, correct rate of question 2, and "shyness and inferiority toward the development of secondary sexual characteristics" ( P <0.01).
Conclusion
The current comprehensive sexuality education knowledge among junior high school students needs to be improved. The level of implementation of sexuality education in different settings varies, but the implementation of sexuality education in schools can help improve students comprehensive sexuality education knowledge level.

Objective:
To understand the current situation regarding sex education in home and school settings in China, and to provide a scientific basis for more effective family and school sex education.
Methods:
Using a convenient sampling method, a crosssectional survey of students from grade 7 to grade 9 in Beijing, Liaoning, Sichuan, Chongqing, Yunnan and Henan was carried out from September to December 2021. The questionnaire covered general demographic information, sex education at home and school, and the status of comprehensive sexuality education. Finally, 4 109 valid questionnaires were collected.
Results:
A total of 760(18.50%) middle school students had not received any form of sex education, 923(22.46%) had only received sex education at school, 299(7.28%) had only received sex education at home, and 2 127 (51.76%) had received sex education at home and at school. The scores related to junior middle school students knowledge of comprehensive sexuality education was (12.43±2.89) points, the attitude score was (47.86±5.31) points, the behavior score was (40.44±5.18) points, and the comprehensive level score was (82.02±9.01) points. Junior middle school students who received sex education at home and in school had the highest comprehensive level of sex education( P <0.01). Junior middle school students who only received sex education at school had a higher comprehensive sexuality education knowledge level than those who only received sex education at home( P < 0.01 ). The level of comprehensive sexuality education behavior among junior middle school students who only received family sex education was significantly higher than among those who only received sex education at school( P <0.01).
Conclusion
Receiving sex education in both home and school settings can effectively improve the comprehensive sexuality education competency among junior middle school students. School based sex education should be further implemented in the future and family sex education should be encouraged.

Abstract
Improving health literacy can effectively reduce the risk of health risk behaviors and adverse health outcomes in children and adolescents. Global research on health literacy of children and adolescents has been increasing in recent years. The paper reviews the existing research and proposes that there is no universal definition and connotation of health literacy for children and adolescents, most of the studies use or make some revisions on the definition of adult health literacy in child and adolescent health literacy, failing to consider developmental characteristics and unique health needs of children and adolescents. Moreover, the assessment index system and instruments are diversified, making the research findings from different studies difficult to compare, and to obtain consistent and reliable conclusions. Future endeavors are encoouraged to expand health literacy researches and to update more comprehensive and practical definition, and to develop a standardized assessment instrument that can be validated in Chinese culture.

OBJECTIVETo search the candidate gene in the development and metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma and shed light on the possible molecular mechanism of the development of lung carcinoma.
METHODSUsing methods of cell culture, reverse transcription-PCR, RH gene mapping and RNA in situ hybridization.
RESULTSThe cDNA fragment named OPB7-1 was mapped at 1p31-1p34 by RH gene mapping method. The fragment sequences obtained from lung cDNA library of normal person and cell line of AGZY83-a were similar in length but showed individual base difference. For OPB7-1, there is a low homogeneity to known gene by analysis in GenBank, but 3 contigs homologous to OPB7-1 were located at chromosome 1(1p31-1p34). Different degrees of expression were noted in tumor tissues from 24 cases of lung carcinoma, however no significant expression was found in their corresponding normal tissues. And high expression was found in the lung tissues of cases with lymph node metastasis.
CONCLUSIONOPB7-1 may be a novel gene. It may be a tumor related gene in occurrence and metastasis of lung carcinoma.
