Objective To screen primers used in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for detecting Trichomonas vaginalis. Methods Three pairs of PCR primer reported in the literatures (TVA5-TVA6, TV1-TV2 and TVK3-TVK7) were screened. For each PCR, four components, including primers, Mg2+, dNTPs and Taq polymerase, were optimized using Taguchi methods to determine the optimal PCR conditions. With the optimal conditions, the sensitivities of three PCR were compared. Vaginal swabs were collected to detect Trichomonas vaginalis by culture and PCR, and the PCR with highest sensitivity was evaluated. Results All three PCR were of high specificity, and the PCR with primers of TVK3-TVK7 had the highest sensitivity. Of 25 clinical vaginal swabs, T. vaginalis was detected in 7 samples by the culture, however, it was detected in 8 samples by the PCR. All culture-positive samples were also positive by PCR. Conclusions The PCR with the primers of TVK3-TVK7 is highly sensitive and specific, which could be useful to detect T. vaginalis in vaginal swab samples.

Objective To observe the effects of cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors and prostaglandin (PG) receptor blocker on hyperalgesia of diabetic rats. Methods Nociceptive paw-withdrawal threshold (NPWT) and thermal latency (TL) of diabetic hyperalgesic rats were tested after subcutaneous injections of COX inhibitors indomethacin and meloxicam, and EP 1 PG receptor blocker SC-19220 into the dorsum of the hindpaw of the rats. Results Indomethacin, a classic inhibitor of COX, produced a significant and long-lasting relief of mechanical hyperalgesia in diabetic hyperalgesic rats. Meloxicam, a selective cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) inhibitor, alleviated mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia, but with a shorter duration. SC-19220, a selective EP 1 PG receptor blocker, produced significant relief of mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia. Conclusion COX inhibitors and EP 1 PG receptor blocker relieve hyperalgesia of diabetic rats, which suggests that PGs play an important role in inducing and maintaining hyperalgesia in diabatic rats.

Objective:To observe and compare the clinical curative effect and safety of topiramate,carbamazepine and sodium valproate on the epilepsy secondary to encephalitis.Methods:80 cases of patients with epilepsy secondary to encephalitis who were treated in our hospital from January 2010 to September 2015 were selected and divided into the topiramate group,carbamazepine group and sodium valproate group,which were treated with topiramate,carbamazepine and sodium valproate respectively.The treatment effect,congnitive scores (including executive function and visual space,name,language,abstract,attention,delayed memory,directional),adverse reaction rate of three groups were compared.Results:The effective rate oftopiramate group was the highest(80.65％,25/31),carbamazepine was the lowest (70.00％,21/30),but there was no significant difference between the three groups (P＞0.05).After treatment,the scores of executive ability and visual spatial,naming,abstraction,attention,orientation,language in topiramate group were significantly higher than those of carbamazepine group and sodium valproate group (P＜0.05);the incidence of adverse reactions of topiramate group was 12.90％,which was significantly lower than that of carbamazepine group (36.67％) and sodium valproate group (29.62％)(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions:Topiramate,carbamazepine and sodium valproate have equal therapeutic effect on epilepsy secondary to encephalitis,but topiramate had less adverse reactions and best safety.

This experimental study was aimed to find the effect of different package and storage conditions on the content of effective components of A stragalus pieces. A stragalus pieces were stored under different storage conditions by using different packaging materials and packaging methods. Every three months, the contents of Calycosin-7-glu-coside and astragaloside were determined according to the 2010 version of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. With the extend-edstorage time, the contents of two effective components were significantly decreased. After six-monthstorage, the contents were not consistent with the standard of the pharmacopoeia standards. Room temperature had relatively big influence on the loss of content. The plastic and aluminum paperpackagingwere better than kraft paper packaging. The content ofastragaloside using non vacuum packaging method was relatively higher than the vacuum packaging. Contentunder the conditions of cool storehouse and nonvacuum plastic bags was higher than other packagingmethod. And the changes of both contents were relatively stable. It was concluded that the A stragaluspieces should be packed with non vacuum plastic bags, and stored in a cool and dry place.

Objective To clone and express immunodominant fragment of glycoprotein G of HSV-2 (FgG-2). Methods The target gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The PCR products were ligated into directional TOPO expression vector. After identification, the recombinant expression vector was transferred into BL21 StarTM cell for expression. Finally, recombinant protein of FgG-2 (rFgG-2) was detected by Western Blot (WB). Results A 616 bp DNA fragment was obtained with PCR and then confirmed in recombinant vector by PCR and sequencing, bearing 99.5% consistent sequence with target gene. Highest recombinant protein production was obtained at the time point of 3 hours. Expression of target protein was confirmed by WB with anti-gG monoclonal antibody. Conclusions The immunodominant fragment of gG-2 has been successfully cloned and expressed in E.coli, which might be used for the development of serum diagnostics assay kits for HSV-2 infection.

A total of 3 gene mutations were found, including a nonsense mutation of G70A, a missense mutation of D77N, and a missense mutation of Tl16P. Conclusions In comparison with the sequence in GenBank, at least 3 gene mutations of HPV CP6108, i.e. one nonsense mutation of G70A and missense mutations of D77N and Tl 16P, are found in the present study.

Objective To develop a gene chip for the detection of pathogens causing genital ulcer diseases (GUDs). Methods Specific probes of 4 different pathogens were designed and synthesized. Gene chip was prepared by blotting the probes onto specially treated glass slides with the use of a robotics. Target genes of standard strains for the 4 different pathogens and the clinical specimens were amplified by PCR with Cy5 fluorescence labeled primers. The labeled amplicons were hybridized with gene chips, and then scanned and analyzed using computer software. Results The fluorescence signal for specific pathogen could be found in the gene chip, illustrating that one specific fluorescence signal denoted a single pathogen, and the combination of different signals denoted the corresponding co-existence of pathogens. Examination of 40 clinical specimens obtained from 40 patients with genital ulcers with gene chip was in good concordance with dark-field microscopy plus PCR or HSV culture plus PCR, showing Kappa values of 0.882 and 0.947, respectively. In addition, mixed infections were detected in 2 specimens. Conclusion Gene chip is a sensitive method with a reliable result and it can detect multiple infections simultaneously.

Objective To systematically investigate the molecular epidemiological profiles of human papillomavirus (HPV) in patients with condyloma acuminata(CA). Methods Two hundred and one samples of HPV DNA isolated from CA were PCR amplified by the PGMY09/11 primer system. The PCR products were simultaneously hybridized to 37 specific HPV probes immobilized on a nylon strip and then genotyped. All DNA templates were further PCR amplified using HPV 6 and 11 type specific primers for verification. Results All samples were HPV DNA positive consisting of totally 31 genotypes, the types of which were type 11(53.7%, 108/201), 6(43.8%, 88/201), 16(6.5%, 13/201), 52(6.0%, 12/201), 33(5.5%, 11/201), cp6108 (5.5%, 11/201) and 42 (5.0%, 10/201). The samples infected with a single and mixed types of HPV accounted for 60.2% (121/201) and 39.8% (80/201) respectively. Consistent results were found with the detection of HPV6 and 11 between hybridization assay and type-specific PCR. Conclusions At least 31 HPV genotypes are associated with CA. HPV 11 predominates while 68, 40, 54, 67, 73, 82, 35, 64 and 83 are rare in CA. Type cp6108 is detected in CA for the first time with a high prevalence. HPV26, 69, 70, 71,72 and IS39 might be not associated with CA. CA infected with a single and mixed HPV types accounts for 60.2% and 39.8%, respectively.
