Objective To study the relationship of microRNA-145(miR-145) and CD44 in the hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods 13 clinical samples of HCC tissues and corresponding normal liver tissues were collected at department of General Surgery,Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from October 2015 to June 2016.The patients with positive expression of CD44 were studied.The expression levels of miR-145 and CD44 in HCC tissues and corresponding normal tissues were detected by real-time quantitative PCR.Western blot was performed to detect the expression of CD44 in HCC cells Hep G2 and SNU423.Biological information methods predicted whether miR-145 and CD44 have a targeted relationship.CD44 expression levels were detected after high expression of miR-145 in HCC cell line with positive expression of CD44.The vector and luciferase reporter genes were constructed to verify the interaction between miR-145 and CD44.The effects of miR-145 on proliferation in HCC cell lines with positive and negative CD44 expression were examined by tetramethylazoazole salt (MTT) assay.Results 8 of the 13 patients showed positive CD44 expression in HCC tissues.Compared with normal liver tissues,the relative expression of miR-145 in HCC tissues was significantly lower (0.998±0.010 vs.0.503±0.046,P＜0.05),and the relative expression of CD44 was higher (0.996±0.005 vs.1.878±0.108,P＜0.05).Bioinformatics suggested that miR-145 had a targeted relationship with CD44.High expression of miR-145 can significantly reduce the expression level of CD44 mRNA in HCC cell SNU423 (0.941±0.010 vs.0.515±0.021,P＜0.05) and down-regulate the expression of CD44 protein.Confirmed by luciferase reporter assay,CD44 is the target gene of miR-145.After transfection with miR-145 mimics,the proliferation of CD44 positive cell SNU423 was significantly inhibited (P＜0.05).Conclusions miR-145 can affect the proliferation of CD44 positive HCC cells by regulating the expression of CD44,which may be one of the pathogenesis of HCC.

Purpose/Significance By integrating clinical and biological sample information,a big data research platform for biologi-cal sample information resources is built to provide one-stop data retrieval,integration and analysis services for researchers,and a data governance system is established,so as to improve the level of hospital clinical research infrastructure construction.Method/Process Common data model and data governance technology are adopted to integrate data sources from different vendors through extraction,trans-formation,loading and other steps to provide a unified data access portal.Result/Conclusion The big data research platform for biologi-cal sample information resources has the advantages of multi-dimensional data screening and rapid integrated analysis,which can pro-vide support for clinical research.

Heparosan is the start point for chemoenzymatic synthesis of heparin and it is of great significance to efficiently synthesize heparosan in microorganisms. The effects of overexpressing key enzyme genes of the UDP-glucuronic acid (UDP-GlcUA) pathway (pgcA, gtaB and tuaD) or the UDP-N-acetyl-glucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) pathway (glmS, glmM and glmU) on the heparosan production and molecular mass were analyzed in the constructed heparosan-producing Bacillus subtilis ((1.71±0.08) g/L). On this basis, heparosan production was increased to (2.89±0.11) g/L with the molecular mass of (75.90±1.18) kDa through co-overexpressing the tuaD, gtaB, glmU, glmM and glmS genes in shake flask cultivation. In the 3 L fed-batch fermentation, heparosan production was improved to (7.25±0.36) g/L with the molecular mass of (46.66±2.71) kDa, providing the potential for heparosan industrial production.

Objective Using event-related potentials(ERPs),to study the effect and mechanism of negative emotion accumulation hepatic insufficiency on working memory in normal people.Methods Fifty subjects in each of the emotionally stable group and emotionally unstable group were given two load tasks(0-back and 1-back)in the N-back paradigm,the reaction time and correct rate were recorded,and the ERPs components N200 and P300 were detected.The latency and amplitude of P300 were analyzed statistically.Results ①Compared with the emotionally stable group,the emotionally unstable group had a longer reaction time(P<0.05).②Compared with the emotionally stable group,the subjects in the emotionally unstable group had prolonged N200 latency,decreased P300 amplitude significantly(P<0.05),and P300 latency had a tendency to extend(P<0.1).Conclusion Long-term accumulation of negative emotions and liver failure in normal people have the performance of decreased working memory,which may be related to the reduction of attention resource allocation and the impairment of cognitive processing function.
