Objective To study whether ORF3 coded by fap1-orf4 gene locus of Streptococcus pa-rasanguis is involved in the regulation of Fap1 glycosylation and maturation and to investigate whether ORF3 influences Streptococcus parasanguis adhesion. Methods A gene replacement strategy was adapted to con-struct orf3 alleic replace mutant of Streptococcus parasanguis. Complementation assay and Western blot were used to test Fap1 expression levels. Whole saliva-coated hydroxyapatite (SHA) adhesion assay was adapted to determine Streptococcus parasanguis adhension. Results (1) Non-polar was found in strain VT1774, the orf3 alleic replace mutant of Streptococcus parasanguis. (2) Western blot showed that mature Fapl (Mr about 220 × 103) disappeared and were substituted with high molecular weight Fapl (Mr about 470 × 103) in strain VT1774, furthermore, complementation assay showed VT1775, the complementation strain of VT1774, re-stored mature Fapl expression. (3) The binding ability reduced significantly in strain VT1774. Conclusion ORF3 coded byfapl-orf4 gone locus was required for Fap1 glycosylation and maturation in Streptococcus pa-rasanguis, orf3 alleic replacment resulted in Fap1 glycosylation and mature disorder and decreasing of adhen-sion ability of Streptococcus parasanguis.

Objective To investigate whether glucosyltransfernse(GTF) and open reading frame 4 (ORF4) coded by fap1-orf4 gene locus of Streptococcus parasanguis was involved in the regulation of Fap1 glycosylation, and mature and to determine whether there was interaction between GTF and ORF4. Methods A gene replacement strategy was adapted to construct gtf and orf4 allele replace mutant of S. Parasanguis. Complementation assay and Western blot were used to test fap1 expression levels. Yeast two-hybrid analysis and GST pull down assays were adapted to determine the interaction between GTF and ORF4. Results (1) Compared with wild S. Parasanguis, mature Fapl (Mr about 220×103) disappeared and were substituted with high molecular weight Fapl (Mr about 360×103) in gtf or orf4 alleie replace mutants of S. Parasan-guis. Complementation assay showed that pVPT-GFP-gtf and pVPT-GFP-orf4 restored mature fap1 expression in gtf or orf4 alleie replace mutants, respectively. (2) With Yeast two-hybrid analysis, the eotransformants, AH109/pAD-Gtf+pBD-orf4 and AHlOg/pAD-orf4+pBD-gtf growed on SD-LTHA selective ngar plate after streaked, reversely, the eotransformants, AH109/pAD+pBD-orf4,AH109/pAD+pBD-gtf、AH109/pBD+ pAD-orf4、AH109/pBD+pAD-gtf did not grow on SD-LTHA selective agar plate, furthermore, the cotrans-formants, AH109/pAD+pBD-orf4 and AH109/pAD-orf4+pBD-gtfshowed blue during X-α-gal assay. (3) GST pull down assay confirmed the direct interaction between GTF and ORF4. Conclusion There is inter-action between GTF and ORF4 coded byfapl-orf4 gene locus of S. Parasangnis and the formation of the GTF and ORF4 complex was required for the glycosylation and mature of Fapl in S. Parasanguis.

In order to construct generally efficient cell immortalization vector, pTP-hTERT, we modified the traditional piggyBac (PB) transposon using artificial synthesis, PCR and enzyme digestion. The modified vector contained the necessary transposon elements, a PB transposase expression cassette, a co-expression selectable element and a human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) expression cassette. The co-expression selectable element had two markers, enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) gene and puromycin-resistance (Puro) gene, linked by porcine teschovirus-1 2A peptide (P2A). To validate the functionality of vector elements, we transfected pTP-hTERT into HEK293 cell, selected the positive cell clones and then conducted RT-PCR, Western blotting (WB) and Tail-PCR, methylene blue staining and statistic analysis on selected cells. The results of sequencing and cell culture show that the pTP-hTERT was constructed successfully and the positive cell could be selected by puromycin. The WB results, P2A cutting EGFP and Puro fusion protein with high efficiency, reflected the selectable element worked. The sequencing result of Tail-PCR confirmed the vector integrated into the genome through transposition. The results of methylene blue staining and statistic analysis indicated the clone of positive cells triggered by pTP-hTERT significantly increased (P < 0.01) compared with control group. The construction of pTP-hTERT provides an efficient tool for establishing immortalized cell lines and a demonstration for building other eukaryotic plasmids.

Objective:To investigate the immunogenicity of SARS-CoV N DNA vaccine and the feasibility of live-attenuated Salmonella typhimurium as the carrier to deliver the N DNA vaccine.Method:The recombinant attenuated salmonella strain CS022 harboring the pcDNA-N DNA vaccine was constructed.And mouse was immunized with the recombinant strain via intranasal and oral routes.Cellular and humoral immune responses were assessed by ELISA,lymphocyte proliferation assays,ELISPOT and FACS.Result:The oral immunization with the transformed salmonellae elicited strong immune responses mainly including high level of N-specific antibody,a dramatic activation of IFN-?-secreting cells,a high level of lymphocyte proliferation,and a high level of activated CD8+ T cells.Conclusion:Live-attenuated Salmonella typhimurium could effectively deliver the SARS-CoV N DNA vaccine in vivo.These encouraging pre-clinical data provide a rational basis for undertaking a new immune style to investigate SARS vaccine.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate different dosages and effects of dexmedetomidine for prevention of postanesthetic shivering. Methods One-hundred twenty patients scheduled for laparoscopic surgery were randomly allocated in four groups: before the operation, slowly injected 0.9% normal saline (group S, dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg (group D0.5), dexmedetomidine 0.75 μg/kg (group D0.75), dexmedetomidine 1.0 μg/kg(group D1.0). HR and rectal temperature[C2] were continually monitered during and after operation, time to extubation was measured. Grades of shivering were recorded. Pain evaluation was assessed by a visual analogue scale, sedation was evaluated by Modified Observer′s Assessment of Alertness/Sedation scale. Results The patients in group S showed a significantly higher HR and postoperative incidence of shivering than those in group D0.75 and group D1.0, (P < 0.05). but the extubation time in groupd D0.75 and group D1.0 were longer than patients in group S (P<0.05). Conclusion Slowly injected dexmedetomidine 0.75 μg/kg or 1.0 μg/kg can prevent postanesthetic shivering in laparoscopic surgery effectively.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) combined with cisplatin on expression of RASSF1A in nude mice with human nasopharyngeal carcinoma xenograft. METHOD: The models of human poorly differentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma in nude mice were established and randomly divided into four groups, control group (NaCl group), As2O3 group, DDP group and As2O3 + DDP group. The expression of RASSF1A mRNA and protein were detected by Real-time RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry respectively. The methylation rate of RASSF1A promoter CpG islands was analyzed by HRM. RESULTS: Experimental groups could obviously inhibit the growth of tumor and up-regulate the expression of RASSF1A. The methylation rate of RASSF1A in transplanted tumors in experimental groups was lower than the control group. Especially As2O3 combined with DDP were superior to the single drug use. CONCLUSION As2O3 inhibits the growth of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell strain CNE2 xenograft in nude mice and increases mRNA expression of RASSF1A. As2O3 inhibits the malignant phenotypes of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells and reverses hypermethylation of RASSF1A.

To explore a new strategy for further optimization to the C-3 bioisteric heterocyclic ring of fluoroquinolones,twelve novel fluoroquinolone C-3 s-triazole Schiff-base carboxylic acid derivatives(7a-71) were designed and synthesized with both functionalized sulfanylacetic acid and Schiff-base moieties as the modified side-chain for the C-3 bioisosteric s-triazole ring of pefloxacin(1).The structures were characterized by elemental analysis and spectral data,and the in vitro anti-tumor activity of the title compounds against SMMC-7721,L1210 and HL60 cell lines was evaluated.The preliminary pharmacological results demonstrated that the title compounds possessed more significantly anti-proliferative activity than either the parent 1 or the corresponding amine intermediates(6).In particular,the title compound bearing a fluorine atom (7j) and compound bearing a nitro group attached to benzene ring (71) were comparable to the control doxorubicin against SMMC-7721 cells with an IC50 value of micro-molar concentration,respectively.It suggests that s-triazole ring modified with functional side-chain moieties instead of the C-3 carboxylic group is favorable to the improvement of antitumor activity.

Peking University Health Science Center has various characteristics of educational manage-ment practice such as clear three level management, diversified management training and strict quality control, and at the same time there exist many deficiencies, such as lack of the implementation of management regulations and the requirements caused by multi-level management and management quality having ups and downs be-cause of human factors and etc.. By introducing life cycle management into national continuing medical educa-tion project management, we make management run through the whole life cycle of national continuing medical education project, namely five aspects of management from reporting and publishing, planning and publicity, holding and supervision, graduation and certificates, as well as summary and feedback, which plays an impor-tant role in standardizing the national continuing medical education project and improving the quality of the project.
