Several M-CAT elements are present in the chicken nicotinic acetylcholine receptor γ-subunit promoter and required for the totipotency of this gene.To understand the binding properties of M-CAT element,the interaction of M-CAT motif,at the position -67/-61 relative to the initiation site of γ-promoter with nuclear proteins,were analyzed.Mutageneses and binding experiments demonstrated that the M-CAT core motif bound nuclear protein (s) from tested chicken tissues to generate a high-mobility complex;while the flanking sequence bound different factors to generate lower-mobility complexes with the exception of liver.Southwestern blotting showed that only a 30 kD protein was expressed in tested tissues of chicken embryo at day 13.These results suggest that a 30 kD factor can directly bind to M-CAT element in the manner of monomer,even homodimer and is ubiquitously expressed in tissues,while the binding of the factor(s) to flanking sequence should probably rely on the presence of a 30 kD ubiquitous factor.

The humanity-oriented spirit is being reestablished and developed in medical activities,but there are still deviations clearly demonstrated in language expression and communications between doctors and patients.This paper discusses the relationship between medicine and language expression,empirically analyzes the language problems in physician-patient communication including inadequacy of information,rigidness of speech,frankness in speech,the lack of language skills,shortage of non-linguistic information,and the causes of such problems.Finally,the paper proposes that language cultivation should be improved and restressed from the perspectives of both medicine and linguistics.

Objective To observe the effects of Buyang Huanwu decoction(BYHW) on the expression of Cyclin D1 and Cdk2 in rats with post-stroke depression(PSD).Methods The rats model of focal cerebral ischemia was established by means of middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO).Then three weeks of salute-living and chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS) was given to the animal after cerebral stroke to induce the post-stoke depression animal model.The rats were divided into 5 groups:the sham operated group,the midge cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) group,the PSD group,the fluoxetine group and the BYHWD group.The rats were subjected to left MCAO rebuilding in consistent focal cerebral ischemia,followed by an 21-day exposure to chronic mild stress (CMS)and single housing to induce PSD animal model.All rats were killed in 7,14 and 21 day after operation.The expressions of Cyclin D1 and Cdk2 were measured by immunohistochemical staining.Results Pathological changes such as hippocampal nerve cell regression,degeneration and necrosis were observed in the model rats compare with the sham operated group.The expression of Cyclin D1 in normal hippocampus in 7,14 or 21 day after operation was (1.16±0.34)％,(1.62±0.29)％ and (1.60±0.24)％ respectively,and Cdk2 was (1.52±0.26)％,(1.85±0.23)％ and (1.97±0.10)％.After PSD the expression of Cyclin D1 was (49.69±5.68)％,(58.17± 2.89) ％ and (50.87 ± 2.48) ％ respectively,and Cdk2 was (50.63 ± 2.93) ％,(70.34± 1.47) ％ and (61.35 ± 3.04) ％.Compared with model group,Fluoxetine and BYHW significantly reduced the numbers of Cyclin D1 and Cdk2 positive cells,the expression of Cyclin D1 was (16.62±4.27)％,(29.66±5.24)％ and (26.71±1.32)％ at fluoxetine group,and Cdk2 was (18.05±2.26) ％,(33.84±3.12) ％ and (24.51±2.66) ％.The expression of Cvclin D1 was (14.62±2.06)％,(26.89±3.41)％ and (23.68±2.01)％ at BYHWD group,and Cdk2 was (16.60± 2.42) ％,(20.09±3.45) ％ and (22.19± 1.70) ％.Conclusion The abnormal expression of Cyclin D1 and Cdk2 at the PSD rats indicate that they may be involved in the mechanism of neuronal death.Buyang Huanwu decoction may reduce the neuronal apoptosis through down-regulating the expression of Cyclin D1 and Cdk2.

BACKGROUND:Animal experiments and clinical studies have shown that, functional deprivation at the early development stage may possibly cause nerve and cognition dysfunction at adulthood. However, no research focuses on the effect of olfactory function on the neurogenesis in piriform cortex of adult guinea pigs.
OBJECTIVE:To establish olfactory deprivation models and explore the effect of olfactory experience on the distribution of doublecortin, parvalbumin, glutamic acid decarboxylase 67 and the co-localization of doublecortin with neuron-specific nuclear-binding protein in piriform cortex of adult guinea pigs.
METHODS:Twenty guinea pigs were randomly divided into two groups. Olfactory deprivation models were established through unilateral naris-occlusion and the occluded animals were al owed to survive 3 and 6 weeks, then the specimens were harvested. The distribution of doublecortin, parvalbumin, glutamic acid decarboxylase 67 was detected with immunohistochemistry. The co-localization of doublecortin with neuron-specific nuclear-binding protein in piriform cortex of adult guinea pigs was determined with immunofluorescence method.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The number of doublecortin, parvalbumin, glutamic acid decarboxylase 67 positive cel s in piriform cortex at the undeprived side was significantly higher than that at the deprived side at 3 and 6 weeks (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the co-localization of doublecortin with neuron-specific nuclear-binding protein in piriform cortex at 3 weeks group and 6 weeks group (P>0.05). The findings suggest that olfactory experience promotes the maturation and differentiation of neurons in piriform cortex of adult guinea pigs.

The design aims at improving and enriching nurturance theories and practice paradigms related with medical students' doctor-patient communicating competence.It is based on the view about cultivating and evaluating undergraduates' doctor-patient communicating competence and the theoretical basis about the existing research achievement and follows teaching practice regular pattern.Doctorpatient communicating competence of undergraduates has its own multidimensional meanings.Construction methods are as follows:taking one course as the core; enrolling multidimensional discipline in classroom teaching; combining classroom teaching with varieties of practice; establishing medical case communication training model; introducing appropriate evaluation system.Its construction principles should be found on the humanistic essence.

Doctor-patient conflict is a social problem in the present phase of medical development in China that has come into being due to the huge gap between the doctor's and the patient's understanding and requirement concerning their roles,rights,obligations and interest.It results from intersection and collision of various social factors.From the sociological perspective,it has been found that the main causes of such a problem include: the limited health resources and its uneven distribution;the doctor as the monopoly of medical resources;the doctor and the patient both as seekers of maximal self-interest.According to the conflict theory in sociology,doctor-patient conflict can be classified,in terms of form,degree,and goal of conflict,into direct and indirect conflict,violent and non-violent conflict,and reality and non-reality conflict respectively.Indirect conflict and non-reality conflict deserve special attention because of their hiddenness,latency,and deep influence upon doctor-patient relationship.

Purpose To compare the pathological differences between cervical high-grade intraepithelial lesions (CHGIL) positive resection surgical margin after cold knife conization and total hysterectomy,and to explore how to take further clinical treatment measures.Methods The pathologic results of 74 patients with CHGIL positive surgical margin after cold knife conization and hysterectomy were analyzed retrospectively.Results There was a correlation between positive cervical incision margin and residual uterine lesion (P ＜ 0.01).Age,menopause status,gland involvement did not related to residual uterine lesions(P ＞ 0.05).There was significant correlation between the lesion-related quadrant and the residual rate of uterine lesion (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Cold knife conization and hysterectomy are safe and effective treatments for CHGIL.However,for the positive resection surgical margin after cold knife conization cases,hysterectomy should be carefully chosen and may choose conservative treatment or re-cone cutting.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the value of chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) for the prenatal diagnosis of a fetus with structural anomaly detected by ultrasonography. METHODS: The fetus and its parents were subjected to chromosomal karyotyping and CMA analysis. RESULTS: The fetus was found to carry a 46,XN,t(8;11)(q21.2;q13) translocation which was inherited from its mother. CMA has found no copy number variations (CNVs) in both parents but a de novo 2.00 Mb microdeletion in the fetus at 8q13.3. CONCLUSION CMA is capable of detecting microdeletions and microduplications in fetuses with translocations detected by karyotyping analysis.
