Objective:To prepare the egg yolk immunoglobulin Y ( IgY) against human Sucrase and study its stability,in vitro activity. Methods:Hy-line laying hens were immunized with human Sucrase protein,IgY was isolated and purified from egg yolks of im-munized hens using water dilution and salting out method. Indirect ELISA was used to evaluate the titer and stability of IgY. The purity and specificity of IgY were analysed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot respectively. The inhibitory effects of IgY on α-glucosidase was studied by PNPG method. Results:Indirect ELISA results showed IgY could be detected on the tenth day after the first immunization, and the peak titer of IgY was 1:12 800 after the 40th day of immunization. SDS-PAGE showed that the heavy chain and light chain of IgY were 65 kD and 25 kD respectively, and the IgY against human Sucrase could specifically recognize the protein of human Sucrase. The IgY maintained primary titer when it was kept between 29-69℃ for 15 min,and pH 4-7,37℃,4 h. The titer of IgY was maintained 50% after digestion by pepsin and trypsin respectively for 2 hours. IgY had a higher resistence to pepsin than trypsin after longer digestion time. IgY showed an inhibitory effect on α-glucosidase in concentration dependent manner. The half inhibitory concentration (IC50) was 0. 540 mg/ml. Conclusion:The IgY against human Sucrase has been successfully obtained,which established foundations for its study of Type 2 diabetes mellitus rat models in vivo.

Objective To isolate and purify Thy 1 low Lin Sca 1 + bone marrow stem subset cells by magnetic activated cell sorting(MACS). Methods Thy 1 low Lin Sca 1 + cells from mouse bone marrow were collected through three processes by MACS.After Lin + cells were removed,Thy 1 low Lin Sca 1 + bone marrow stem cell subsets were harvasted.The purity of the cells was analysed by FACS and the reclaimation rate was counted. Results The purity and reclaimation rate of Thy 1 low Lin Sca 1 + cells were 72.36% and 82.43% respectively, which equaled to the level of isolation and purification of CD34 + cells by MACS. Conclusions It is effective to isolate and purify Thy 1 low Lin Sca 1 + bone marrow stem cell subsets by MACS, and the purity and reclaimation rate of the cells are high.

Objective To explore the association of the calcitonin receptor (CTR) allelic polymor- phism in the 1377 bp region with the risk of idiopathic hypercalciuria (IH) in the Han nationality in Hubei area,and to study the pathogenesis of IH.Methods The CTR genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism in 76 patients with IH and 126 healthy controls from the Han nationality in Hubei area,using restriction endonuclease AluI.Results The distribution frequen- cies of AluI alleles in the 2 groups followed the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.The distribution frequencies of the CC,TC and TT genotypes were 73.7% ,17.1% and 9.2% in IH patient group,and 89.7% ,9.5% and 0.8% in control group;the distribution frequencies of C and T alleles in the 2 groups were 84.2% ,15.8% and 94.4% ,5.6% ,respectively.The distribution frequencies of T and TT alleles were higher,while those of C and CC alleles were lower,compared with control group;the differences between the 2 groups were signifi- cant (P＜0.05).Conclusions The results indicate that the C/T single nucleotide polymorphism in the CTR gene play a significant role in the mechanism of IH in the Han nationality in Hubei area in China.

Objective To analyze the incidence and risk factors for regional nodal failure(RNF) and chest wall recurrence(CWR) in T1 or T2 breast cancer patients(median age 44 year-range 26-72) with 1-3 positive axillary nodes treated with postmastectomy radiotherapy limited to the regional nodes.Methods From 1990 to 1999,320 patients were treated with postmastectomy(radical or modified radical) radiother- apy confined to the supraclavicular and internal mammary nodes with a median dose of 50 Gy in 25 fractions over 5 weeks.The median number of nodes examined was 8 (range 1-24).The median lymph nods rate (LNR) was 25% (range 5%-100%).Results The 5-year overall survival rate and disease free survival rate was 89.7% and 83.4%,respectively.The 5-year RNF and CWR was 7.9% and 5.7%,respectively. The 5-year RNF in patients with LNR＜30% and≥30% was 4.4% and 14.0% (P=0.002).The 5-year CWR in the subgroups with LNR＜30% and≥30% was 3.5% and 9.6% (P=0.018).In age≤35 year eld patients with LNR≥30%,the 5-year RNF and CWR was 40.0% and 20.0%.In T2 patients with LNR≥30%,the 5-year RNF and CWR was 15.8% and 12.2%.Age and LNR were independent prognostic factors for RNF+CWR,LNR was the only independent prognostic factor for CWR by multivariate analysis. Conclusions In T1 or T2 breast cancer patients with 1-3 positive axiliary nodes treated with radical or modified radical mastectomy,a relatively high incidence of chest wall recurrence is observed in the subgroup of patients with lymph nods rate of 30% or greater accompanied by a T2 primary tumor or age≤35 years old. Lymph nodes rate is the only significant prognostic factor of chest wall recurrence.For these patients,post- operative lymphatic drainage area and chest wall irradiation should be considered.

Objective To explore the effect of motivational interviewing in caring type 2 diabetic patients with gastric bypass. Methods Eighteen type 2 diabetes patients from June 2012 to November 2012 were assigned in the control group and another 20 patients during December to May 2013 in the intervention group. The control group received the traditional nursing, while the intervention group received motivational interviewing. The two groups were compared in terms of anxiety, self-management ability and blood glucose. Result The follow-up 3 months after intervention showed the intervention group was significantly better than the control group in terms of anxiety, self-management ability and blood glucose (P<0.05). Conclusion The motivational interviewing can improve psychological state and self-management skill of patients so that recovery process is facilitated.

AIM: To investigate whether a pathological micro-environmental culture system consisting of cholestatic sera induces embryonic stem cells (ESC) to differentiate into hepatocyte-like cells in vitro, and select hepatic stem cells from differentiating embryonic stem cells. METHODS: Mouse ESC, E14 cell line, were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium containing 106 U/L recombinant mouse leukemia inhibitory factor (rmLIF) and 10% FCS. After embryonic bodies formed by the hanging drop culture method, they were exposed to fibroblast growth factor-4 (FGF-4) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) for one week, and then placed to a pathological micro-environmental culture system consisting of 5% cholestatic sera and cultured for 2 weeks. Morphological examination, immunocytochemical staining of albumin and CK8/18 were carried out, and mRNA level of albumin and transthyretin were detected by RT-PCR. Glycogen storage and urea synthesis of the cells were tested with PAS staining and colorimetric assay, respectively. RESULTS: The proliferation of cells was inhibited at the early stage when cultured in a pathological micro-environmental culture system consisting of 5% cholestatic sera, but 2 weeks later, a large number of epithelial-like cell colonies were observed, which exhibited hepatocellular phenotype, expressing albumin and CK8/18, transcribing mRNA of albumin and transthyretin and synthesizing glycogen and urea. CONCLUSION: A pathological micro- environmental culture system consisting of 5% cholestatic sera could not only induce embryonic stem cells to differentiate into hepatocyte-like cells, but select hepatic stem cells from differentiating embryonic stem cells initially induced by FGF-4 and HGF in vitro as well.
