This paper was mainly on pesticide degrading microorganisms. The major pesticide degrading bacteria were Pseudomonas, Bacillus, Flavobacterium, Alcaligenes, Arthrobacter, etc. The major pesticide degrading fungi were Aspergillus,Pinicielium, Rhizopus, Trichoderma, Fusarium, etc. The major pesticide degrading actinomycetes were Nocardia, Streptomyces, etc.

Objective To establish a method for studying molecular mechanism of Rhubarb inhibiting anti-Yersinia pesti based on DNA microarray.Methods A whole genome DN A microarray containing 4005 annotated genes of Yersiniapesti Was used.The minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC)of Rhubarb to Yersiniapestiwas determined by liquid dilution method.The gene expression profile of Yersinia pesti was performed after the exposure to Rhubarb at a concentration of 10×MIC for 30 minutes.The total RNA extracted and purified from Yersinia pesti Was reversely transfected to cDNA and labeled by Cy3-Cy5 dye.The labeled probes were hybridized to the microarray anti the results were obtained by a laser scanner and the microarray data was confirmed by real-time quantitative RT-PCR.Results The platform of the DNA microarray-based bacteria transcriptional profile was established.A total of 498 genes of Yersinia pesti changed significantly in response to Rhubarb.Among them.358 genes were up-regulated,140 down-reguated.Conclusions The whole genome DNA microarray can be used in the studying of molecular anti-Yersinia pesti mechanism of Rhubarb.

Objective In order to improve the understanding of Kimura's disease,the clinical features and the pathological changes of 12 patients were analyzed.Methods Twelve cases with Kimura's disease ad- mitted to Qilu Hospital of Shandong University were retrospectively reviewed.Results All 12 patients were in relatively good condition and presented as subcutaneous nodules or swelling lymph nodes.Peripheral blood eosinophilia did not occur in 5 cases,4 out of 6 patients had high-level serum IgE.Biopsies were taken in all cases and the characteristic histological presentations were discovered.Only one patient developed pulmonary inflammation and acute myocardial infarction which were rare in Kimura's disease.Conclusions Definite di- agnosis of Kimura's disease mainly relies on biopsy.A patient with Kimura's disease can suffer from severe pulmonary and cardiac diseases,but the relationship between them should be studied further.

Objective:To investigate the expression of wild type estrogen receptor(wER)and the ex-on-5 deleted ER(variant ER,vER)in human hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)samples,and thereafteranalyze the possibility of HCC treatment by endocrine therapy.Methods:The mRNA expressions of wERand vER were analysed from 28 cases of HCC by RT-PCR.The expression of ER at the protein level wasdetected by immunohistochemistry(IHC).Results:IHC results showed that 39.3% of the HCC speci-mens expressed ER.The mRNA of wER was detected in 89.3%(25/28)of the HCC specimens whilethat of vER was detected in 96.4%(27/28).Twenty four out of 28 HCC cases(85.7%)expressedboth wER and vER.One out of 28 patients(3.5%)expressed only wER whereas 3 patients out of 28(10.7%)expressed vER only.Conclusion:Ninety six percent(27/28)of the HCC patients expressedvER,which suggests that the expression of vER is an important event in the development of HCC.

Objective To investigate the correlation between CT perfusion parameters of pulmonary carcinoma and standardized uptake values(SUV)derived from ~(18)F-fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography(~8F-FDG PET)and tumor microvessel density(MVD),and to determine the validity of CT perfusion in assessing tumor angiagenic activity of pulmonary carcinoma.Methods Fifty patients(mean age 57.5,17 females)with pulmonary carcinoma underwent CT perfusion using 16-slice helical CT.Blood flow(BF,ml?100g~(-1)?min~(-1)),blood volume(BV,ml?100g~(-1)),mean transmit time(MTF,s)and permeability surface area product(PS,ml?100g~(-1)?min~(-1))were analyzed.SUV of PET was calculated in 14 patients.The CD34 immunohistochemical staining was used for tumor microvessel counting.CT perfusion parameters of pulmonary carcinoma were correlatively studied with SUV and tumor MVD.Pearson's correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the association between CT perfusion parameters and SUV and MVD.Results The average values of BF,BV,MTT and PS were 97.30 ml?100g~(-1)?min~(-1), 8.86 ml?100g~(-1),6.75 s and 34.52 ml?100g~(-1)?min~(-1),respectively.The average value of MVD was 61.82/FOV.The mean value of SUV was 5.96.There was positive correlation between BF and SUV(r= 0.727,P

Pololike kinase 1(Plk1)contain an Nterminal Ser/Thr kinase catalytic domain and a Cterminal region that contains two poloboxes.As a key regulator of multiple steps during cell cycle across eukaryotic species,many proteins interact with Plk1.Plk1 is highly expressed in malignant cells and serves as a negative prognostic marker in specific human cancer types.Plk1 is a potential target for cancer therapy.Some novel smallmolecule inhibitors of pololike kinase 1 provide novel opportunities for cancerdrug discovery,such as BI 2536,ON01910.

Advances in mechanism and application of the heating effect in breeding of microorganism are reviewed in this paper. Heat produces mutagenesis effect and screening effect. Heating mutagenesis effect is occurred through the substitution of G-C base pair induced by heat, and heating screening effect produces higher forward mutation rate induced by other mutagens.

OBJECTIVE To design molecular beacon detecting embB330 codon of ethambutol-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis(MTB),meanwhile,and try to detect fluorescence of mutation site of embB330 codon in liquid by fluorescence microscope by compareing the mutation strains and standard strains.METHODS The software,Beacon designer,was used to design molecular beacon detecting embB330codon and detecting fluorescence signal from hybridization between the amplified product and probe by fluorescence microscope,and to confer to the sequencing results.RESULTS The difference between PCR products from standard strain and ethambutol-resistant one was obvious in detecting the fluorescent light by use of fluorescence microscope.We detected fluorescent light signal between the 33 ethambutol-resistant strains and 10 H37RV standard strains.The rate of ethambutol-resistant strains was about 3%,and the rate of sequencing was about 3%.CONCLUSIONS The technology of molecular beacon effectually can detect mutation single base site of embB330codon.Fluorescence microscope owns characteristics such as high sensitiveness to detect the fluorescent light.
