Objective To prepare the recombination protein and polyclonal antibodies against human apolipoprotein A5(ApoA5)and detect the expression of ApoA5 in human tissues with the antibody,then further study the fuction and serum level of ApoA5.Methods With PCR and gene recombinated techniques,the prokaryotic ApoA5 expression vector was constructed.The His-ApoA5 fusion protein was expressed in E.ColiM15,and the fusion protein was injected into New Zealand rabbits to prepare polyclonal antibody.The antibody was tested for their specificity with ELISA and Western-blot,then it was used to detect the tissue distribution of ApoA5.Results It was found that there was a specific brand at 40 ku of the recombination ApoA5(rApoA5);the polyclonal antibody had high immunoreactivity and specificity.ApoA5 was expressed in human sera and hepatic tissue,not in other tissues(heart,vessel,spleen,intestine and lung),regardless of the lipid level.Conclusion The pQE30-ApoA5 is constructed successfully,the rApoA5 can be expressed in E.Coli M15;ApoA5 antibody has highly specifity.It can be used in clinical test.There is ApoA5 in human serum,and ApoA5 is expressed in liver which may be significant in lipid metabolism.

Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2012;30(2):101-105
BackgroundWith the number of diabetics increases,people pay more attention to the diabetic keratopathy.The major mechanism leading to diabetic keratopathy is diabetic corneal neuropathy.So it is significant to observe pathologic mechanism of diabetic corneal neuropathy. Objective To investigate the protective effects of edaravone( a free radical scavenger) on corneal nerve of rats with experimental diabetic corneal neuropathy,then explain the effects of oxidative stress in the pathologic mechanism of diabetic corneal neuropathy. Methods Seventy Sprague-Daxley male rats were taken as experimental subjects and 20 of them were used as normal control group.The remaining 50 were induced to be diabetic mellitus by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin and divided into 2 groups randomly:edaravone treated group and diabetic control group.In the edaravone treated group,edaravone(0.2 g/L) eye drops were used 3 times a day until the animal was killed.Five rats in each group were sacrificed at 6,8,10 and 12 weeks respectively.Then the corneal sensation,number of corneal nerve fibers,morphology,content of malondialdehyde(MDA) and activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD) in the corneal tissue were detected.ResultsIn the diabetic control group,the corneal sensation and the number of corneal nerve fibers were decreased,the density of neural network for cluster was sparse,the nerve activity was decreased,the content of MDA in the corneal tissue was significantly increased,the activity of SOD in the corneal tissue was significantly decreased (P<0.01 ).Accompany with the course of disease,the above change was obvious day after day.Compared with the diabetic control group,the corneal sensation and the morphological abnormalities in corneal nerve of edaravone group were improved significantly which had the partial branches to the 12th week,the content of MDA in the corneal tissue was significantly decreased,the activity of SOD in the corneal tissue was significantly increased (P<0.01).Conclusions Edaravone can lower diabetic corneal nerve of rats with experimental diabetic corneal neuropathyinjury,Oxidative stress may be a critical pathologic mechanism of diabetic corneal neuropathy.

As an important part of the health service security system,military medical equipment has important strategic position in wartime.Under the condition of high technology,the modern warfare has also laid higher requirement to the reliability guarantee of medical equipment.With the modernization development of military equipment,traditional medical equipment maintenance management mode does not meet the requirements of modern military medical equipment and its maintenance.Therefore,based on the reliability guarantee theory,the "Reliability Centered Maintenance(RCM)" management mode for military medical equipment is studied in order to achieve the purpose of improving the equipment reliability and the integrity of combat readiness.

Objective To investigate the tellurite resistance level,the presence of tellurite resistance (ter) gene cluster and their relationships in non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli(STEC) isolates.Methods Tellurite resistance level was evaluated by plate dilution method and the ter gene cluster was tested by PCR.Results Only 5 of 39 non-O157 STEC isolates tested in this study were identified to have ter gene cluster,which showed relatively high levels of tellurite resistance ranging from 128 μg/ml to 512 μg/ml.In contrast,the other 34 isolates without ter gene cluster were sensitive to potassium tellurite and showed very low levels of tellurite resistance,the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was <1 μg/ml for 29 isolates,8 μg/ml for 2 isolates and 2 μg/ml for 3 isolates.Conclusion Most non-O157 STEC isolates were sensitive to potassium tellurite.It could be concluded that much attention should be paid when screening the non-O157 STEC isolates using the selective medium supplemented with potassium tellurite.

The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infected-cell protein 27 (ICP27) is an essential,highly conserved protein involved in various steps of HSV-1 gene regulation as well as in the shut-off of host gene expression during infection.It functions primarily at the post-transcriptional level in inhibiting precursor mRNA splicing and in promoting nuclear export of viral transcripts.Recently,many novel functions performed by the HSV-1 ICP27 protein were shown,including leptomycin B resistance,inhibition of the type I interferon signaling,regulation of the viral mRNA translation and determining the composition of HSV-1 virions.

Objective:To explore the wound-healing effect and the anti-inflammatory activity of the aqueous extracts from the fresh roots and rhizomes of A. calamus. Methods: The image analysis techniques and the histological analysis were used to determine the wound-healing effect in the excised wound test, and the real-time RT-PCR techniques was used to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activi-ty in the lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW 264. 7 cells test. Results:The aqueous extracts were given 3 times a day since the model was established. The skin wound area was reduced significantly in the aqueous extracts group when compared with that in the control group since the 3rd day, the wound area in the aqueous extracts group was only 15% of that in the control group on the 13th day, and the wound-healing rate was enhanced significantly by the extracts. Moreover, the mRNA expressions of the inflammatory mediators such as TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the inflammatory RAW 264. 7 cells induced by lipopolysaccharide were inhibited effectively by the ex-tracts in a dose-dependant manner. Conclusion:The results indicate that the aqueous extracts from the fresh roots and rhizomes of A. calamus have significant wound-healing activity in animal excised wound model and anti-inflammatory activity in vitro.
