The genetic indentification of 16S rDNA or ITS, capability of phosphate-solubilization and pH of medium, and optimization of medium of some microorganism isolated from mangrove were investigated in this study. The result showed that the fungi normally had much higher capacity to dissolve the inorganic phosphate than the bacteria, the capacity of the fungi was closely correlated to the pH of medium, but the relationship was weak for the bacteria. It was illustrated by single factor experiments that the optimal carbon and nitrogen sources were maltose and urea respectively. The orthogonal design was employed in testing the optimum composition of medium composed of 5 g/L maltose, 0.05 g/L urea, 5 g/L NaCl, pH 5. In this optimal medium, the effectively enrichment of bacteria could reach up to 6.06?109 CFU/mL under 30?C for 48 hours cultivation.

Objective:To design and construct the replication-deficient recombinant adenovirus Ad-siCTGF which can silence the expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) by RNA interference and verified its function. Methods:A specific sequence, which was verified to be able to silence CTGF gene with high efficiency, was cloned into pSES-HUS vector to produce the shuttle plasmid pSES-siCTGF. The plasmid after Pme Ⅰ linearization was cotransduced with pAdEasy into BJ5183 E.coli strains to construct recombinant vector Ad-siCTGF. After linearization treatment with Pac Ⅰ enzyme digestion Ad-siCTGF was transfected into HEK293 cells via liposome mediation. The recombinant adenovirus was packaged. The titer of the Ad-siCTGF was increased after three times of cross-infection. 4T1 cells were infected with the adenovirus. The silencing efficiency was tested by real-time fluorescence quantitative (RFQ)-PCR and Western blotting.Results:Pac Ⅰ enzyme digestion electrophoresis indentified that recombinant adenovirus was successfully constructed. The titer of the recombinant adenovirus Ad-siCTGF was 2.6×10~(10) pfu/mL after amplification and purification. The CTGF mRNA and protein expression in 4T1 cells were decreased by 36.27% and 31.56%, respectively, compared with the control groups.Conclusion:The recombinant adenovirus which can silence the expression of CTGF was successfully constructed. It laid a good foundation for further investigation of the action mechanism of CTGF in tumor cells.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of bortezomib-based chemotherapy and MPT regimen in the MM patients who were newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory. Methods Twenty-seven MM patients were treated with bortezomib-based chemotherapy, median cycles:3 (range 1-5 cycles). Other 30patients received MPT chemotherapy. EBMT and WHO criteria were used to evaluate the therapeutic effects and the adverse effects, respectively. Results Bortezomib group: 21 patients (77.8 %) showed effects after the first cycle chemotherapy and 24 patients (88.8 %) showed effects after the whole therapy. In wich, 15 patients(94.0 %) and 9 patients (82.0 %) were newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory, respectively. MPT group: 15patients (50.0 %) showed effects after the whole therapy. In wich, 12 patients (44.0 %) were newly diagnosed.And the other 3 were relapsed/refractory patients. The ORR in Bortezomib group was better than MPT group (P <0.05). The incidence of peripheral neuropathy, herpes and Ⅲ - Ⅳ grade thrombocytopenia in the bortezomib group was 10 patients (37.0 %), 7patients (26.0 %), 10 patients (37.0 %) respectively,and they were more common than MPT group, but the incidence of Ⅲ-Ⅳgrade anemia was 21 patients (70.0 %) and more comumom in the MPT group. The theraputic efficacy of bortezomib for renal insufficiency and normal renal function patients was similar, and no significant increase in all kinds of adverse effects. In MPT group,there were 4 patients with renal insufficiency, the serum level of creatinine in the 3 patients returned to normal after 5 cycles therapy. Conclusion Bortezomib-based chemotherapy is more effective than MPT regimen in the treatment of MM. The newly diagnosed, relapsed/ refractory and with renal insufficiency patients all can benefit from it. The adverse effects are mild and with better tolerance.
