Objective To clone and sequence the dystonin variant X1 gene of Cricetulusbarabensis and the albino mutant Cricetulusbarabensis so as to find out the difference of encoding arear of the muscular ribosome between Cricetulusbarabensis and the albino mutant Cricetulusbarabensis.Methods According to the same type of abnormal muscle tone protein of the mice and rats, we designed 6 pairs of primers, and got their cDNA genes from skins of the Cricetulusbarabensis and the albino mutant Cricetulusbarabensis by RT-PCR amplification, then cloned and sequenced. Results Sequence alignment showed 17 variances in coding areas, and 24 in amino acid, but no in key nucleic acid and protein.Conclusion The variances in coding areas will not lead to the albino, and its mechanism requires further investigation.

Objective To establish an eukaryotic vector of monkey B virus glycoprotein D gene and analyze the expression of gD gene in human embryonic kidney 293T cells.Method First, the protein of monkey B virus glycoprotein D was obtained by gene synthesis.The gene fragments were digested with Pst I and Not I, and ligated to pEGPF-N3. Then, the recombinant plasmid pEGPF-N3-GD was transfected into 293T cells.The expression of gD protein in the cells was detected by Western blot, and the expression localization was investigated using laser scanning confocal microscopy. Results The recombinant plasmid pEGPF-N3 carrying gD gene was successfully constructed, and normally expressed in the 293T cells.Conclusions Glycoprotein D of monkey B virus is expressed successfully in the 293T cells and the protein is located on the cell surface.It may be useful for the preparation of specific recombinant antigen to the glycoprotein D of monkey B virus on cell surface, and can be also used for preparation of antigen slide for detection of monkey B virus.

Objective To get the gene encoding extracellular domains of gB protein of B virus and analyze its expression in the eukaryocyte cell.Methods synthesizing gene fragment encoding extracellular domains of gB protein of B virus was by using synthesis gene, then digested with the restriction endonucleases BamHⅠand NotⅠand inserted into eukaryotic expressing vector pEGFP-N3.pEGFP-N3-GB合 was transfected into 293 cells.After protein extraction, the expression of gene was detcted by western blotting, and the cellular localization of the gene was analyzed by immunofluorescence and laser scanning confocal microscopy.Results pEGFP-N3-GB合were expressed in 293 cells and on the cell membrane.Conclusion eukaryotic expressing system can produce specific antigen recombination protein of B virus gB protein and express on the cell membrane.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of retzius-sparing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy with retrograde release of the neurovascular bundle.Methods:From January 2021 to January 2022, the clinical data of 113 patients with retzius-sparing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP) was retrospectively analyzed. The ages of the optimized group and the standard group were (67.5±6.4) years and (67.7±6.1) years, and the body mass index (BMI) was (25.0±3.2) kg/m 2 and (24.9±3.1) kg/m 2, respectively. The prostate volume was (42.8±15.4) ml and (41.0±17.9) ml, the preoperative PSA was (13.5±13.1) ng/ml and (11.9±16.0) ng/ml, and the preoperative IIEF-5 score was (15.0±4.0) and (14.8±4.2) points, respectively. Gleason scores were (7.2±0.8) points and (7.1±0.9) points, respectively, with no statistical significance ( P>0.05). The clinical stages of cT 2 and cT 3 were 35 and 40 cases in the optimized group and 16 and 22 cases in the standard group, respectively. There were 5 and 11 cases of preoperative neoadjuvant therapy, respectively, with no statistical significance ( P>0.05). The optimized RS-RARP is the blunt dissection of the denonvilliers fascia and forward to the apex of prostate, and retrograde release of the NVB. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, drainage tube retention time, days of hospital stay, positive rate of pathological margin and incidence of complications were compared. The recovery of urinary continence was evaluated at 2 weeks after the catheter was removed, and the postoperative IIEF-5 score and PSA were followed up at 1 month after the surgery. Immediate urinary continence was defined as the use of 1 pad on the day of radical prostatectomy. Follow-up intervals were no more than 3 months. The log-rank test compared urinary incontinence rates between the two modalities. Results:All 113 cases of surgery were completed, and median follow-up was 16 months. The operation time was (79.7±26.6) min and (149.8±40.1) min, and the intraoperative blood loss was (54.9±24.7) ml and (110.0±83.2) ml, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). The retention time of postoperative drainage tube was (5.3±2.1) d and (5.5±2.1) d in the optimal group and the standard group, and the days of hospital stay was (7.6±2.1) d and (8.5±2.3) d, respectively. The positive rate of postoperative pathological margin was 19.6% (10/51) and 24.2% (15/62), respectively. There was no significant difference ( P>0.05). immediate urinary continence was 86.3% (44/51) and 69.4% (43/62) in the optimized group and the standard group, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.033). Postoperative IIEF-5 scores were (13.2±3.3) and (11.0±4.3), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.012). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the risk of urinary incontinence was lower in the optimized group ( P=0.02). Conclusions:The optimized RS-RARP might shorten the operation time, reduce intraoperative bleeding, and help the recovery of urinary continence and sexual function to a great extent.
