Objective:To construct tetracycline regulating expression system of HBV-S gene,and study its regulating expression of HBVAg by tetracycline in HepG 2 cells. Methods:Insert HBs gene into the multiple cloning site of pcDNA4,which contain tetracycline operator in the promoter,and the constructed vector with pcDNA6 was co-transferred into HepG2 by means of lipofectamine,and use 400?g/ml Zeocin and 10?g/ml Blasticidin to kill the untransfected host cell line. After 20 days’select,the cell line which express HBsAg stablely after induced by tetracycline was generated. Then the HBsAg expressing was induced by varying concentration of tetracycline(0.5?g/ml,1.0?g/ml,2.0?g/ml,3.0?g/ml).Amount of HBsAg was detected by means of MEIA (Microparticle Enzyme Immunoassay) to determine the appropriate concentration of tetracycline. Result:HBsAg had been expressed at low quantity without tetracycline in transfected HepG2. However the S/N of HBsAg were high but not different after induced by varying concentration of tetracycline. Conclusion:Tetracycline regulating expression system of HBV-S gene was constructed successfully and HBsAg was highly expressed in the vector induced by tetracycline.

A hybridoma cell strain 6H_3(a kind of IgG_1)which could secrete the monoclonal antibody to human H blood group substance was yielded through PEG—fusion of the SP2/0 cells and BALB/C mouse spleen cells immunized by H blood group substance. The agglutination titers of cell culture supernatant and the ascites fluid were 512 and 16384,respectively. Based on hemagglutination specificity test,absorption and eluate test,and hemagglutination inhibition assay,it was showed to be specific only for the human H blood group substance. The ability of hybridoma cells to secrete the monoclonal antibody wasn't be changed when it has been stored in the liquid nitrogen for a year. The agglutination activity of monoclonal antibody has remained stable when it has been kept at 56℃ for 30 min,and repeatedly subjected to freezing and thawing tests at —20℃ and 37℃,respectively. It can be expected to replace the traditional anti-H reagents and to be used for clinical blood typing.

Objective To develop a duplex digital PCR(dPCR) for evaluation of the stability of luciferase(Luc) gene in Luc2P reporter cell lines(CHO-K1,Hacat,HEK293 and UT7).Methods Genomic DNAs of Luc2P reporter cell lines were extracted,a duplex dPCR was developed to determine the copies of reference gene RPP30 and the target gene Luc,and the relative copy number of Luc(copies Luc/copy RPP30) was employed as the indicator for the stability evaluation of Luc gene;The developed method was verified for the specificity,precision,linearity,accuracy and durability,and analyzed for the applicability,according to the related requirements in Chinese Pharmacopoeia(Volume Ⅲ,2020 edition).Results All the original cells without reporter gene transfection were negative,while all the four reporter cell lines were positive,and the negative and positive regions in dPCR results were clearly distinguished;The relative standard deviation(RSD) of the eight repeated detections of the same genomic DNA sample and the six independent extractions of genomic DNA sample of the same cell were all less than 10%,and the linear fitting R~2 values were more than 0.99 for both Luc and RPP30.The spike recoveries of five groups of samples detected by the developed method were between 50% and 100%,and the results of chip-type dPCR and droplet-type dPCR were consistent.This method distinguished the relative copy number of Luc in different cell clones,and the results of detecting the relative copy number of Luc in three passages(P8,P12 and P31) were highly consistent.Conclusion The developed duplex dPCR method has good specificity,precision,linearity,accuracy,durability and applicability,and might be used to evaluate the stability of Luc gene in Luc2P reporter cell lines.

Objective To investigate androgen receptor (AR) expression in triple negative breast cancer(TNBC) patients and its predictive value for clinical outcomes.Methods Five hundred and sixty-eight primary breast cancer patients who received surgery treatment from January 2008 to January 2010 were included in this study.Tissue sections of surgical resection specimens were underwent estrogen receptor (ER),progesterone receptor (PR),and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) immunohisto chemical staining,according to the judgment for triple negative breast cancer and non triple negative breast cancer.Data on age,family history,menstruation,tumor size,tumor stage,tumor grade,pathological type and lymph node metastasis were collected for analysis.Immunohistochemical analysis of AR was done in tissue sections of triple negative breast cancer patients,Kaplan-Meier method was used to compare survival between AR(+) and AR(-) groups,and Log-rank method was used to determine the association between AR-positive expression and 5-year overall survival as well as disease free survival.Results Among 568 breast cancer patients,174 (30.6％)TNBC patients were identified,including 84 patiens with AR (-) expression and 90 patients with AR (+) expression.During 5 years' follow-up,reccurrence rate was 35.7％ (30/84) in AR (-) group and 20.0％ (18/90) in AR(+) group;5-year overall survival rate was 73.8％ in AR(-) group and 81.1％ in AR(+) group.There was no significant association between AR(+) expression and 5-year death or recurrence rate,while after adjusting for age,menstruation,tumor size and lymph node metastasis,AR (+) expression was significantly associated with decreased 5-year death and recurrence rate,adjusted hazard ratio (HR) was 0.794,95CI (0.430-1.021) and 0.722,95CI (0.451-0.965) respectively.Conclusion AR (-) expression is associated with increased risk of death and recurrence and is a promising predictive marker for poor clinical outcomes.

BACKGROUND:Membrane guided bone regeneration technology has become an important method in repairing bone defects. With the deepening of the research, related concept and the mechanism of membrane guided bone regeneration have been gradual y confirmed, but there are stil some unresolved issues.
OBJECTIVE: To review the classification of membrane tubes, performance, disadvantages and advantages in membrane guided bone regeneration, as wel as some unresolved issues in application and research.
METHODS:The first author searched PubMed and CNKI databases to retrieve articles about the discovery of membrane guided bone regeneration and the concepts, classification of membrane tubes, performance, disadvantages and advantages during bone defect treatment, which were published from 1963 to 2013. The key words were“guided bone regeneration, guided tissue regeneration, bone defect treatment”in English and Chinese, respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Membrane guided bone regeneration technique is a most promising treatment for bone defects, but for the treatment of long tubular bone defects, it is stil in the experimental stage. Currently, there is no membrane tube for long-segment bone defects. According to the material sources, the membrane tubes can be divided into:non-biological material, such as polytetrafluoroethylene, polylactic acid, silica gel, titanium film;biological materials, such as col agen membrane, chitin membrane, polyhydroxybutyrate. The membrane tubes can also be classified into nondegradable materials and biodegradable materials. Biodegradable materials have good histocompatibility and no cytotoxicity, which can degrade in a certain period after implantation;part of the membrane can also al ow free exchange of tissue fluid and nutritional substances. But there are stil some shortcomings that the degradation time is difficult to control and the volume is difficultly maintained under the membrane tube. New bone formation in non-biodegradable materials is complete. In the process of osteogenesis, the membrane tube cannot be absorbed and has to be removed secondarily, though it has good histocompatibility and better therapeutic outcomes. In the future, we should further improve membrane performance, so that the membrane tube can play a dual role, fixation and guided bone regeneration;a series of animal studies should be conducted to study the effect of stress on the membrane tube and osseointegration within the membrane tube, to master the law of osseointegration of membrane tubes, thereby providing evidence for repair of long tubular bone defects.
