Objective To construct the recombinant streptolysin O antigen(SLO) prokaryotic expression plasmid and establish its best expression condition in Escherichia coli .Methods The DNA fragment encoding SLO was amplified from streptococcal ge-nomic DNA template by PCR ,and then incorporated into pET-32a(+ ) vector to construct pET-32a(+ )-SLO recombinant plas-mid .pET-32a(+ )-SLO was transformed into Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) and SLO protein was expressed and purified by isopro-pyl-β-D-thiogalactoside(IPTG)-induction and auto-induction ,respectively .Results The results of DNA electrophoresis and DNA sequencing showed that pET-32a(+ )-SLO recombinant plasmid was constructed successfully .When IPTG at different concentra-tion was used ,SLO expressed as inclusion body and its expression efficiency was low .Under auto-induction condition ,SLO ex-pressed as partly soluble manner ,and its expression efficiency increased .Conclusion The prokaryotic expression plasmid pET-32a (+ )-SLO is constructed successfully and the best condition for SLO expression and purification from Escherichia coli culture is es-tablished ,which lay the foundation for further basic and clinical application research with SLO .

SHP-2 is one of the protein tyrosine phosphatases which plays a role in the progress of dephosphorylation in organ -isms, participating in many kinds of signal transduction pathways .The mutation of SHP-2 is associated with many kinds of malignant diseases .In recent years , scholars have found that SHP-2 is the key factor in osteoclastogenesis , playing a positive role in the progress of reversible phosphorylation of osteoclasts .The objective of this article is to review the molecular biological characteristics of SHP-2, th diseases associated with the mutation of SHP-2 and the effects of SHP-2 in regulation of osteoclastogenesis .

Orthodontics is the procedure of managing the space .Space analysis is a comprehensive quantitative analysis that can analyze the factors that influence the arch space .It also helps to judge if the treatment goals can be reached , thus helping the treat-ment plan making and guiding clinical orthodontics .And space analysis related factors include crowding , curve of Spee, arch width, arch growth, arch protrusion, mesiodistal angulation, an so on.In this review, we summarizes the above-mentioned factors.

By literature survey searching references and parsing prescriptions, the auther has analyze the clinical advantage of Miao medicine in the treatment of symptom heat stranguria. Guizhou Miao medicine Polygonum capitatum has many advantages such as resources and clinical. After companying with Phellodendri Cortex, the compound prescription plays the pharmacological activity of antipyretic and diuretic, especially for the symptom heat stranguria, damp and hot junction based in the bladder. Miao medicine Kelintong capsule showed clinical advantage in the treatment of symptom heat stranguria, having a clinical advantage in improving the overall effectiveness and improve the overall aspects of the patient's symptoms.

Objectives To study health-related quality of life(HRQOL) of children with subclinical epileptiform electroencephalographic discharges.Methods Subjects were 30 children with subclinical epileptiform electroencephalographic discharges,50 children with clinical seizures,28 children without clinical seizures and 30 controls.Guardians completed a valid epilepsy-specific HRQOL questionnaire for children,the quality of life in children epilepsy questionnaire(QOLCE).Results Children with subclinical epileptiform electroencephalographic discharges have 8 subscales scores lower than control group,2 subscales scores higher than group with clinical seizures.Conclusions Quality of life of children with subclinical epileptiform electroencephalographic discharges is better than that of children with clinical seizures.However cognitive,behavior,daily life and social activity are impaired by subclinical epileptiform electroencephalographic discharges and lowered the HRQOL of children.

The maxillary first premolar is a transitional tooth between incisors and molars. Most maxillary first premolars have 2 root canals. However, the bilateral maxillary first premolar with 3 roots and 3 canals has not been described. This article reports a rare case:The bilateral maxillary first premolar with 3 roots and 3 canals.

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is extensively used to increasing the in vivo and in vitro stability of liposomes. However, PEGylated liposomes also produce some negative effects with further research, such as low cellular uptake, poor "endosomal escape" of pH sensitive liposome (PSL) and accelerated blood clearance (ABC) phenomenon, and this situation is referred as the "PEG dilemma". "PEG dilemma" posed severe challenges for the targeted delivery of PEGylated liposomes-loaded anticancer drugs, effective intracellular release of PEGylated PSL-encapsulated gene and protein drugs, and repeated administration of PEGylated liposomes. Therefore, it is urgent to solve the "PEG dilemma". This review focused on the definition, classification of "PEG dilemma", and discussed several possible approaches to overcome "PEG dilemma".

Objective To examine the hemodynamic changes and oxygen metabolism during off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) .Methods Twenty patients (18 male, 2 female) aged (60?8)yr, weighing (71?9)kg undergoing OPCABG were studied. The patients were premedicated with diazepam 10 mg PO 2h before operation and morphine 10 mg and scopolamine 0.3 mg im 30 min before operation. Anesthesia was induced with midazolam 0.1-0.2 mg?kg-1, fentanyl 5-10 ug?kg-1 and vecuronium 0.12-0.15 mg?kg-1 and maintained with 0.5%-2% isoflurane inhalation, fentanyl 10-20 ug?kg-1 and intermittent iv boluses of vecuronium and in some patients propofol infusion. Radial artery was cannulated. Swan-Ganz catheter was placed via internal jugular vein into pulmonary artery. Hemodynamic parameters including MAP, HR, cardiac index (CI), stroke volume (SV), MPAP, PCWP, SVR, left ventricle stroke work index (LVSWI) and RVSWI; oxygen metabolism including oxygen delivery (DO2) , oxygen consumption (VO2) and oxygen extraction ratio (ERO2); regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSCO2) and arterial blood lactate level (ABL) were measured and recorded before skin incision (A), when pericardium was incised before operation on the heart (B), during operation on the heart (C), 10 min after operation on the heart (D) and at the end of surgery (E) . Results During surgical manipulation on the heart (C) MAP, SV and CI decreased while CVP and HR increased, but the decrease in CI and SV was not significant. During manipulation on the heart(C) DO2 decreased whereas ERO2 increased, but there was no significant change in VO2. After manipulation on the heart (D) DO2 and ERO2 returned to the pre-manipulation level. Arterial blood lactate concentration increased at E. Conclusion OPCABG can be performed uneventfully under our general anesthetic regimen. During operation while the beating heart is being manipulated MAP tends to decrease while CVP and HR increase. The changes are of short duration and do not result in any serious consequeaces.

Phospho-histone H2AX(γH2AX) has been widely used in vitro genotoxicity evaluation of ionizing radiation, carcinogenic substances and cigarette smoke as an important biomarker of DNA double stranded breaks ( DSBs) . The study developed an enzyme-linked immunesorbent assay for detection of the content ofγH2AX in cells to evaluate the genotoxicity of cigarette smoke. The study exposed CHO cells with cigarette smoke total particulate matter ( TPM) and cigarette smoke condensate ( CSC) of different dose, dose-effect relationship between smoke exposure and DNA damage and the poisonous difference of cigarette smoke components has been investigated by detecting the content change ofγH2 AX in cells under different exposure time and dose. In addition, reactive oxygen species ( ROS) in cells were also detected to study the mechanism of cigarette smoke exposure induced DSBs. The experiment result showed that the required time for the level ofγH2AX in cells grew to the peak prolonged with increased exposure dose. Once the level of γH2AX in cells grew to the peak value, then it decreased slowly; the level of γH2AX in cells rised with increasing dose of cigarette smoke;The effect of TPM on the content change of γH2AX was more than CSC; Moreover, smoke exposure could induce concentration increase of ROS in cells, and a good correlation of content change of ROS and γH2AX in cells were found, free radicals in cigarette smoke may be one major cause of DSBs.
