Objective:To express MSP1-31 gene of Plasmodium falciparum in Salmonella typhi CVD908 vaccine strain using a tetracycline-controlled P LtetO promoter. Methods:The MSP1-31 gene was cloned into the plasmid of pZE11 and transformed into the CVD908/tetR strain by electroporation. Expression of MSP1-31 in CVD908/tetR strain was detected using the method of Western blot. Results: The recombinant plasmid of pZE11/MSP1-31 was constructed, there was effective expression of MSP1-31 protein in CVD908/tetR strain in presence of tetracycline, and no expression of gene in absence of tetracycline. Conclusion: The recombinant Salmonella typhi strain in which the expression of Plasmodium falciparum MSP1-31 fragment induced by tetracycline is established successfully.

OBJECTIVE:To develop an LC-MS method for the determination of the concentration of duloxetine in human plasma.METHODS:Plasma sample(0.2 mL)was taken,with the protein precipitated twice using acetonitrile.The mobile phase consisted of 20 mmol?L-1 ammonium acetate(pH3.5)-methanol-acetonitrile(38∶20∶42).The sample was separated on a Thermo C18 column with plasma concentrations(time-concentration profile)of duloxetine in 10 healthy volunteers determined by LC-MS after taking a single oral dose of duloxetine enteric-capsule(22.4,44.8 or 67.2 mg).RESULTS:The calibration curve of duloxetine was linear over the concentration range of 0.78～100 ng?mL-1(r=0.999 5)with the recovery at 100.8%,the RSD of intra-day and inter-day at no more than 7.8% and 9.3%,respectively.CONCLUSION:The method developed in our study was proved to be accurate and sensitive,and suitable for the pharmacokinetic study of duloxetine.

Objective To determine the free thiols in the chimeric protein PfCP-2. 9 of Plasmodium falciparum expressed by Pichia pastoris. Methods Two experiments of reverse phase HPLC and Ellman' s reaction were applied to the PfCP-2.9 for the determination of its free thiols. For RP-HPLC analysis, three kinds of samples were tested: PfCP-2. 9, dithiothreitol-reduced PfCP-2.9 and indoacetic acid-alkylated PfCP-2.9. Results Both experiments showed that there were no any free thiols present in the PfCP-2. 9. Conclution The disulfide bonds between cysteine residues of PfCP-2. 9 were formed completely.

Surgical treatment is the treatment of choice for gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST).A consensus on the surgical principle of GIST has been made based on the 10-year experience,which effectively guided the standardized treatment of GIST.Laparoscopic and gastrointestinal endoscopic techniques were applied in the treatment of GIST,and promote the development of the diagnosis and treatment of GIST.Laparoscopic treatment has become one of the main treatment methods for GIST.Furthermore,multi-disciplinary treatment for GIST is gradually adopted in clinical practice.In this article,the prospect of surgical treatment of GIST is introduced based on a 10-year experience.

arotid artery atherosclerosis is closely associated with ischemic stroke.Carotid artery intimamedia thickness is an important indicator of carotid artery atherosclerosis.Magnesium is involved in the in vivo metabolism of a wide variety of processes.Studies have shown that magnesium can decrease carotid intimamedia thickness.This article reviews the relationship between magnesium levels and carotid artery atherosclerosis in different populations.

The paper introduced the practice of family doctor′s contracted service in Zhenjiang,Jiangsu province over the past six years.By exploring the tiered family doctor′s contracted services,namely 3+X teamwork responsible for household health,health insurance contracting with chronic disease patients,and personalized contracts,the city highlights the cornerstone role of primary care in the Healthy Zhenjiang 2015 Campaign.The campaign aims at providing fair,accessible,systematic and uninterrupted health services.Outcomes of the campaign have proved that the 3+X teamwork model helps building acquaintances relationship with residents by means of contracting,hence motivating both the sector and individuals in the health promotion and building a healthy Zhenjiang.

Objective:To observe the effect of Tangshenning on renal function and LOX-1 mRNA expression in the kidney of early diabetic nephropathy rats model. Methods:Early diabetic nephropathy rats model was made with high fat diet, STZ and unilateral ne-phregtomy. After the 12-week drug intervention, the rats were sacrificed, the kidneys were removed and the mRNA expressions of LOX-1 in the kidney were observed by the method of RT-PCR. Results:Early diabetic nephropathy rats model was successfully made by the triple-modeling method. The mRNA expression of LOX-1 in the kidney was significantly increased, and Tangshenning could low-er the expression of LOX-1 in the kidney in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion:The abnormal expression of LOX-1 could be one of the mechanisms for diabetic nephropathy. Tangshening has good kidney protective effect through decreasing LOX-1 abnormal expression in the kidneys, which deserves further research.

Purpose: To investigate the expression of Survivin gene and its relationship with expression of Caspase-3, B-cell lymphoma-2( Bcl-2) in human non-small-cell lung carcinoma( NSCLC) . Methods: Expression of the Survivin mRNA was evaluated by in situ hybridization (ISH) in 13 normal bronchial epithelium, 11 dysplasia, 54 NSCLC and 12 lymph node metastasis. Immunohistochemical assay was used to detect the expression of Caspase-3 and Bcl-2 proteins. Results: Expression of Survivin was detected in a significantly greater proportion in NSCLC (74. 07%) and lymph node metastasis (91. 67%) than normal bronchial epithelium (7. 69%) and dysplasia ( 27. 27%) (P

Objective To evaluate the effects of rHGF on liver regeneration after partial transplantation.Methods The partial orthotopic liver transplanted model was established in SD rats with two-cuff technique. In experimental group, immediate after operation, 500 ?g/kg rHGF was administered intravenously twice a day. Same vehicle of saline was administered as control. The rats were (killed) randomly on the day 1, 2, 4 and 7 after operation. The serum levels of albumin and alanine (aminotransferase) were detected. Each liver was removed and weighed. The expression of Ki-67 antigen was detected by using immunohistochemistry assay. The regeneration response of hepatocytes was evaluated by flow cytometry.Results The wet weigh in rHGF group was significantly larger than that in control group 1, 2 days after transplantation. The serum level of alanine aminotransferase was (lower) and that of albumin was higher in rHGF group than in control group 4, 7 days after operation. The proliferating index and Ki-67 labeling index of graft in rHGF group were higher than in control group.Conclusion rHGF can promote the regeneration of hepatocytes after partial transplantation.
