More than ten bacteriophage of E.coli were isolated from the soil and the dung of the fowl-run, then three of named bacteriophage A, C, D which lysis E.coli virulently were selected to investigate biological characterizations. The results showed that high activities were obtained after the phages incubated at 50℃ for 1 h or 60℃ for 30 min. The phages could be alive at the range of pH from 4 to 12, Ca 2+ or Mg 2+ added to the medium could stimulate the lysis of phages. However, the formation of the plaque could be inhibited obviously by adding sodium citrate to the medium.

Background and purpose:miR-22 has been reported to be down-regulated in gastric cancer, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, and breast cancer. However, its expression in glioma was still poorly known. This study aimed to explicit whether miR-22 suppresses cell proliferation by targeting MTDH, thus to reveal molecular mechanism that miR-22 functions as a tumor suppressor in glioma. Methods:Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was conducted for detecting the expression of miR-22 in gliomas and normal brain tissues. MTDH 3’UTR-luciferase vector was constructed and dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was employed to examine the effect of miR-22 on luciferase activity. U251 cells were transfected with miR-22 mimics, and MTDH siRNA as for postive control, then Western blot was performed to detect the expressions of MTDH protein. The proliferation ability of U251 cells was evaluated by MTT assay. Results:miR-22 was down-regulated in glioma tissues. Glioma patients with relatively high expression of miR-22 showed lower mortality compared with low expression of miR-22 by using Kaplan-Meier survival curves. We demonstrated miR-22 could bind to the 3’ untranslated region (UTR) of MTDH and inhibited the luciferase activity. Western blot showed that the expression of MTDH protein was inhibited by restored miR-22 or siR MTDH in U251 cells. Overexpression of miR-22 or siR MTDH inhibited the proliferation of U251 cells. Conclusion:miR-22 suppresses cell proliferation by targeting MTDH in glioma.

ABCB11 gene encodes bile salt export pump (BSEP).It is almost exclusively expressed in the canalicular microvilli of liver.It is the principal conveyor of bile acids from hepatocyte cytoplasm into bile canaliculus.It is clearly that BSEP defects can induce progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 2 and benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis type 2.ABCB11 gene variation are also responsible for intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy,drug-induced cholestasis,primary sclerosis cholangitis and primary bile cirrhosis.This paper reviewed the association of ABCB11 gene variation and these diseases.

Objective To investigate the changes in cerebral oxygen metabolism during liver transplantation in patients with liver cirrhoses.Methods Sixteen ASAⅢorⅣpatients with liver cirrhoses(14 male,2 female)aged 25-67 yrs,weighing 45-80 kg undergoing liver transplantation were studied.Radial artery was cannulated for direct BP monitoring and blood sampling.Swan-Ganz catheter was placed in pulmonary artery (PA)via right internal jugular vein(IJV)for cardiac output(CO)monitoring and sampling mixed venous blood. Left IJV was cannulated and the catheter was advanced cephalad until jugular bulb for blood sampling.Anesthesia was induced with midazolam,fentanyl,propefol and vecuronium and maintained with isoflurane inhalation and intermittentⅣboluses of fentanyl and vecuronium.The patients were mechanically ventilated after tracheal intubation.PaCO_2 was maintained between 30-45 mm Hg.Blood samples were taken from radial artery,pulmonary artery and jugular bulb simultaneously for blood gas analysis before operation(T_0,baseline),10 min before anhepatic phase(T_1)20 min after onset of anhepatic phase(T_2),30 min after graft reperfusion(T_3)and at the end of operation(T_4).Oxygen delivery(DO_2),oxygen consumption(VO_2),oxygen content of jugular bulb blood (CjvO_2),cerebral arterial-venous oxygen content differences(Ca-jvO_2)cerebral oxygen extraction ratio(CERO_2) and CBF/CMRO_2 were calculated.Results The mean duration of operation was(364?51)min and the mean intraoperative blood loss was(1340?430)ml.CO was significantly increased before anhepatic phase(T_1), during neohepatic phase(T_3)and at the end of operation(T_4)but decreased during anhepatc phase(T_2)as compared with the baseline value at T_0.Hb,CaO_2,Ca-jvO_2 and CERO_2 were all decreased while SjvO_2 and CBF/ CMRO_2 were increased during operation;DO_2,VO_2 and CjvO_2 were decreased during anhepatic phase;DO_2 was increased during other phases;VO_2 was increased at the end of operation as compared with the baseline(T_0)(P＜0.05 or 0.01).Conclusion There is no cerebral oxygen deficiency during liver transplantation in patients with liver cirrhoses.

Background Corneal contact lens have been widely used in vitrectomy.The corneal ring accompanying with the contact lens therefore is also much concerned.We designed a sutureless silicone corneal ring to renew a suturing?ring,but its detection of physicochemical properties and hiocompatihility is necessary for clinical application. Objective This study was to investigate the physicochemical properties and biocompatibility of the newly designed sutureless silicone corneal ring. Methods The Shore hardness,tensile stress-strain tests,tear strength,transmittance and the haze of the novel silicone ring were tested.The bioeompatibility of sutureless silicone corneal ring to corneal epithelial cells was evaluated by determining cytotoxieity.The ring was implanted into the counjunctival soc of 6 Japanese white rabbits for 4 hours to determine its stimulation response by measuring the area of corneal fluorescence staining,and then the ring was placed on the skin surface of 6 SD rats for 4 hours to assess the presence of allergic reaction by calculating the swelling area of skin. Results The new sutureless silicone corneal ring showed good physiological features with a Shore hardness of 63.4 degree,tensile strength more than 5.86 MPa,elongation＞100%and tear strength 34 kN/m.The transmittance of 3 legs in the ring was more than 93%;however,the haze was less than 0.1%.Cytotoxicity of the ring was 3.1 1×10-6%.No obvious corneal fluorescence staining was seen at any time point in all the rabbit eyes in the stimulating test.Furthermore,there was not any skin swelling in various time points in all the SD rats in the allergy test. Conclusion The physicochemical properties of the silastic used in our newly designed sutureless silicone cornea ring can meet the demands of the ring.The biological evaluation complies with the ISO i0993-1 international standards and meets the demands of the organism.Thus,it is all ideal material to use in constructing the corneal ring.

Objective To compare the clinical effect of drug-eluting stents implantation or pure balloon expansion for the treatment of patients with knee artery lesions. Methods Sixty-eight patients with knee artery lesions were randomly and voluntarily divided into the control group( n=34 )and observation group( n=34 ) . The patients in the control group were given balloon expansion treatment,while in observation group were implanted drug-eluting stents besides balloon expansion. Pathological changes of skin temperature,percutaneous oxygen partial pressure( TcPO2 ),ankle brachial index( ABI),and the recurrence rate of patients before and after treatment for 6 months and 12 months were recorded and compared. Results After 6 months treatment,TcPO2 and ABI in observation group were(35. 4 ± 4. 5)mmHg and 0. 85 ± 0. 04,significantly higher than that in control group(( 28. 2 ± 3. 5 ) mmHg and 0. 62 ± 0. 03 ),and the differences were statistically significant( t=2. 535,2. 185;P﹤0. 05). At 12 months after treatment,skin temperature,TcPO2,ABI in observation group were(32. 4 ± 4. 3)℃,(34. 3 ± 4. 2)mmHg and 0. 80 ± 0. 04,significantly higher than that of the control group ((28. 6 ± 3. 7)℃,(26. 4 ± 3. 6)mmHg,0. 53 ± 0. 02;t =2. 354,2. 648,2. 064;P ﹤0. 05). Meanwhile,the recurrence rate was 5. 9% in observation group,significantly lower than that of the control group( 32. 4%;χ2=8. 463,P﹤0. 05). Conclusion The clinical effect of drug-eluting stents implantation in treatment of patients with knee artery lesions is superior to that of balloon expansion.
