Candida shehatae xyl1 gene and Pichia stipitis xyl2 gene were amplified by PCR and the xyl1 and xyl2 were both placed under the promoter GAL of vector pYES2 to produce the recombinant expression vector pYES2-P12. Subsequently the pYES2-P12 vector was transformed into S. cerevisiae YS58 by LiAc to produce the recombinant yeast YSS8-12. It was indicate that the recombinant yeast YSS8-12 could converse xylose to ethanol with the xylose consumption rate of 81. 3%.

With the constant rise of energy price,it has a great practical meaning of using lignocellulose to produce ethanol.Xylose is a kind of monosaccharide whose content is only less than glucose in most lignocellulosic hydrolysates.There is some difficulty of producing ethanol from lignocellulose by the traditional ethanol production strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae,because it cannot metabolize xylose.People have tried to use genetic engineering technology and cell fusion method to modify Saccharomyces cerevisiae to make it metabolize xylose and produce ethanol for many years.This review indroduced the progress in this field.

Objective: To explore the correlation of left descending anterior (LDA) myocardial bridge (MB) and atherosclerosis at proximal to a segment with MB in patients elderly than 60 years and to identify if LDAMB could become the independent risk factor of atherosclerotic stenosis at proximal to a segment with MB. Methods: A total of 986 patients with multi-slice spiral CT diagnosed coronary artery disease (CAD) were studied and 389 patients with 486 MB in left heart were found. General information as the age, gender, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and smoking conditions were collected, relationship between LDAMB and atherosclerotic stenosis at proximal to a segment with MB was studied by Logistic regression analysis. Results: There were 48/389 (12.3%) cases with MB at proximal segment of LDA, 254 (65.3%) cases with MB at middle segment of LDA, 51 (13.1%) cases with MB at distal segment of LDA, 19 (4.9%) cases with MB at the ifrst diagonal branch and 17 (4.4%) cases with MB at obtuse marginal branch respectively. Logistic regression analysis presented that age (OR=1.07, 95% CI 0.02-0.09,P<0.01), diabetes (OR=4.48, 95% CI 0.75-2.24,P<0.01) and MB at middle segment of LDA (OR=4.98, 95% CI 0.81-2.41, P<0.01) were related to atherosclerotic stenosis at proximal to a segment with MB; age (OR=1.08, 95% CI 0.04-0.12,P<0.01) and diabetes (OR=3.49, 95% CI 0.30-2.19,P=0.01) were related to the atherosclerosis at LAD middle segment; the MB at LAD middle segment was not related to atherosclerosis of middle and distal LAD segments,P>0.05. Conclusion: MB at middle segment of LDA was with the higher occurrence rate of atherosclerotic stenosis at proximal to a segment with MB in elderly patients, which could be used as an independence risk factor for clinical diagnosis.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the clinical efficacy and mechanism of Feiyangqin Rectum Condensed Liquid (FRCL) in treating children syncytial viral pneumonia. Methods Seventy-two patients were randomly divided into two groups, the 36 patients in the treated group were treated with FRCL, and the other 36 patients in the control group simply treated with Western medicine. Efficacy of treatment on clinical condition and some immune function (IgA, IgG, CD3, CD4) were observed.
RESULTSIn the treated group, 28 patients were cured (77.8%), treatment was markedly effective in 4 patients (11.1%), effective in 2 (5.5%) and ineffective in 2 (5.6%), with the total effective rate of 94.4%. The corresponding number in the control group was 20 (55.6%), 7 (19.4%), 6 (16.7%), 3 (8.3%) and 91.7%, respectively. The cure rate in the treated group was obviously superior to that in the control group (P < 0.05). FRCL could improve serum IgA, IgG, CD3, CD4, and CD4/CD8, lower serum IgE, these indexes in the treated group were significantly different to those in the control group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONFRCL had the action in treating children syncytial viral pneumonia without any adverse reaction, one of its mechanisms might be related to its regulation on immune function.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the diagnostic value of histopathological changes in the liver of patients with neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD).
METHODSLiver specimens from 10 cases of NICCD were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin stain, histochemistry and immunohistochemistry (EnVision method). SLC25A13 mutation analysis was performed to correlate with histopathology.
RESULTSMost specimens showed varying degrees of fat deposition in hepatocytes, necrotic inflammation, cholestasis and fibrosis (so-called tetralogy). The combination of the above four histological changes was highly characteristic for NICCD. With the progression of the disease, hepatic fibrosis deteriorated and ultimately led to cirrhosis.
CONCLUSIONSNICCD should be suspected in the presence of cholestasis during infancy. A liver biopsy must be performed to rule out other liver diseases. The tetralogy of the hepatic histopathological changes has a highly diagnostic value for NICCD, which is also practical for accurately assessing the degree of inflammation and fibrosis, and similarly the progression of hepatic cirrhosis.

To separate and identify chemical signals which induce Thesium chinense haustorium formation, the components of T. chinense roots secretion collected with XAD-4 resin were detected by GC-MS. The effect of DMBQ as exogenous signals to induce haustorium formation in T. chinense was studied. Fifty-three compounds of 9 types had been detected, including hydrocarbons, esters, organic acids, ketones, alcohols, nitrogen containing compounds, phenolic acids, aldehyde and quinine. It is worth noting that the 2, 5-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone has the core structure of 1,4-benzoquinone, which may play an important role in the parasitic relationship of Prunella vulgaris and T. chinense: DMBQ worked effectively on inducing haustoria, but induction effects vary widely in different concentrations. DMBQ with the concentration of 1 μmol x L(-1) showed the best effect of the inducing ability with a ratio of 110.52 when treated to induce haustoria.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the correlation of clinical effect and prognosis between patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) and different K-ras status.
METHODSThe clinical characteristics, chemotherapeutic regimens and survival of 153 mCRC patients with different K-ras status were analyzed retrospectively.
RESULTSThe median overall survival (OS) in patients without K-ras mutation were 31.7 months, significantly longer than 21.3 months in the patients with K-ras mutation (P = 0.037). The median progression-free survival (PFS) and OS in patients who received chemotherapy followed by anti-EGFR antibody treatment were 11.5 and 39.3 months, respectively, significantly longer as compared with the PFS and OS in those received chemotherapy in combination with anti-EGFR antibody concomitantly (5.7, P = 0.02, and 28.7 months, P = 0.034, respectively).
CONCLUSIONSK-ras status is a prognostic biomarker for mCRC patients treated with anti-EGFR antibody. The combination settings of anti-EGFR in combination with chemotherapy may improve survival of mCRC patients with wild-type K-ras status.

The lumbar disc herniation is a common and recurrent disease in the department of orthopedics. At present, the treatment means mainly include conservative treatment and surgical treatment. Compared with traditional open surgery, percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic discectomy (PTED) is safe, effective, economical and minimally invasive. It is widely used in minimally invasive treatment of lumbar disc herniation. However, the clinical reports of the failure of PTED are also common. According to the research reports of domestic and foreign scholars, there are varieties of risk factors for surgical failures, including the selections of patients, indications, surgical approaches and anesthesia methods preoperative. Occurrences of surgical complications including infection or left pains, and reasonable rehabilitation exercise after the operation are related to failures. There is no unified conclusion at present. In this paper, we reviewed the literatures about failed PTED, and try to make an overview about the general situation of failed operation in clinical practice, the risk factors for failures and the countermeasures.
