According to the project of personnel cultivation in 21st century,we have increased interdisciplinary comprehensive experimental courses to intensify the practical education,optimize operating model and teaching method of experimental courses.Experimental education must be strengthened in order to culture students' creativity.

Industrial culture media for cultivation of marine microalgae Nannochloropsis oculata was optimized by using Random Design software. High eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) content was obtained over 40% of total fatty acid, and high average specific growth rate of 0.32d -1 was obtained in cells grown in the selected Formula 1. Mass cultivation of this species was practiced in indoor open raceway ponds of 6.12 m 2 and 28.02 m 2, and in outdoor open pond of 83.50 m 2 during May and June in 1999. The average area yield of biomass were obtained at 2.77, 1.62 and 2.52 g /m 2?d, and in October, 1.09 g/ m 2?d was obtained in 83.5m 2 outdoor pond, and the harvest algae powder contained 49.50% of protein, 20.30% of total lipid and 3.00% of EPA of dry weight. With high temperature tolerant species during August in 2000, the average area yield of biomass were increased to 5.44?9.96 and 7.66 g/ m 2?d in above ponds, respectively and 2.50% of EPA of dry weight was contained in the powder. It is indicated that the industrialized cultivation of Nannochloropsis oculata rich in EPA is completely doable on practice, and the algal powder was a good raw material as single cell protein and development of EPA rich products.

Objective To evaluate the value of serologic teats in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis by conducting a seroprevalence survey for anti-gp210 and anti-sp100 antibodies.Methods A total of 72 consecutive primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) patients with or without Sj(o)gren's syndrome (SS) and 50 patho logic controls were studied.Antibodies were tested by ELISA assays with recombinant spl00 and purified gp210.Results The positive rates of anti-gp210 detected by ELISA was 31.1% and 45.5% in PBC patients with and without SS respectively.Among SS and virus hepatitis patients,none had anti-gp210 antibody (P＜0.01).The prevalence of anti-gp210 was similar in PBC patients with and without SS.The positive rates of an ti-sp100 detected by ELISA was 14.8% and 18.2% in PBC patients with and without SS respectively.Among the patients with SS,only 3.3% was positive for anti-sp100,but none had anti-sp100 reactivity in virus hep atitis patients.The prevalence of anti-sp100 was not significantly different between PBC and SS groups. Conclusion Anti-gp210 and anti-sp100 are highly specific for PBC.The sensitivity of anti-gp210 and anti sp100 is 31.1% and 14.8% respectively.They may be helpful in the diagnosis of PBC.

Objective This study is to identify the presence of superoxide anion-generating system in human lens epithelial cells using arachidonic acid (AA) as the stimulator.Design Experimental study.Participants Human lens epithelial cells B3 (HLE B3). Methods Confluent human lens epithelial cells (HLE B3) were subjected to stimulation by AA and its derivatives.The generation of su- peroxide anion was quantified with a luminometer (LumiStar BMG) immediately upon AA and its derivatives addition.Cells preloaded with superoxide dismutase (SOD) or mannitol were used as negative controls and cells mixed with 3% ethanol (solvent for AA) were used as baseline.Cells were preloaded with inhibitors 30 minutes before luminometer measurement.A time-and concentration-depen- dent study on the AA-stimulated activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) was carried out using western blot analysis. Main Outcome Measures Superoxide generation,phosphorylation of MAPK.Results AA at dosage of 30-150 mM proportionally in- duced luminescence in HLE B3 cells,but was ineffective in cells preloaded with SOD or mannitol.DPI,a non-specific NADPH oxidase inhibitor eliminated AA-induced superoxide anion generation partially.Leinoleic acid,stearic acid,eicosa-11Z,14Z,17Z-trienoic acid (20:3) and eicosa-11Z,14Z-dienoic acid (20:2) were ineffective.The generation of superoxide anion was not contributed by cyclooxyge- nase or the cytochrome p450 pathway since indomethacin (inhibitor for cyclooxygenase) or ketoconazole (inhibitor for cytochrome p450) could not eradicate the stimulatory effect of AA.While CDC,a specific inhibitor for lipoxygenase could eliminate superoxide generation partially.The specific inhibitor for 5-lipoxygenase AA861 completely blocked the generation of superoxide anion.Western blot analysis of the cell lysate showed that AA at the concentrations of 30-150 mM progressively activated ERK and JNK.They were transiently ac- tivated between 2.5-30 minutes.The activations of ERK and JNK were dose-dependent and time-dependent.Conclusions Inhibition of superioxide anion generation may be a new approach to block lens epithelial cell proliferation and post-capsule opacification.

Objective To investigate the function of donor-derived dendritic cells (DCs) treated with NF-?B decoy in prolonging murine cardiac allograft survival time.Methods Donor bone marrow- derived DCs were treated with NF-?B decoy in vitro.Heterotopic abdominal heart transplantation was performed from BALB/c to C57BL/6 mice.Recipients were grouped according to different pretreat ments as follows:(1) Control group,infusion of PBS (0.2 ml) alone intravenously via the portal vein 7 days before heart transplantation;(2) CsA group,treated with sub-therapeutic CsA only for 7 days (10 mg?kg~(-1)?day~(-1)) through intraperitoneal injection after transplantation,and the same as control group before transplantation;(3) Control DCs group,infusion of only cultured 5th-day recipient DCs untreated with NF-?B ODN decoy;(4) Treated DCs group,infusion of recipient DCs pretreated with NF-~cB ODN decoy;(5) Combined treatment group,infusion of recipient DCs treated with NF-~cB ODN decoy before transplantation and intraperitoneal injection of sub-therapeutic CsA for 7 days (10 mg?kg~(-1)?day~(-1)) after transplantation;(6) Third party donor group,C3H/HeJ mice used as donor, and recipient (C57BL/6) was treated the same as combined treatment group.Every group had 8 mice and graft survival time was observed.Cytokines (IL-2,INF-?,IL-4 and IL-10) in recipient serums were analyzed by ELISA at 7th day after transplantation.Results The graft mean survival time (MST) in control group,CsA group,Control DCs group,treated DCs group,combined treatment group and third party donor group was 7 days,10.3 days,7.6 days,21.4 days,53.6 days and 9 days,respectively.There was significant difference in MST between treated DCs group and control group or control DCs group (P

A monoclonal antibody (McAb) 3H11 against gastric cancer with high positive rate, high selectivity and high affinity was obtained. 131 I Labeled McAb 3H11 was injected into gastric cancer-bearing nude mice, and the tumor/liver ratio, localization index, ID%/g could reach 8.26?1.26, 6.08 + 1.51, 11.00?2.62, respectively. Moreover, McAb 3H11 conjugated with 131 I could increase the cytotoxicity to tumor xenografts and decrease the side effects. The radioimmunoimage was carried out in 19 cases with gastric cancer, and positive image was obtained in 16 cases (84.2%). The radioimmunoguided surgery of gastric cancer was successfully done by submucous injection of labeled McAb 3H11 through endoscope. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy for evaluation of tumor infiltrated gastric walls were 94.6%, 96.7% and 95.9%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy for identification of metastatic lymph nodes were 99.2% ,97.7% and 98.8%, respectively.

The preparation of Calculus bovis and its compounding preparations have been used widely in clinical practice.Traditionally,the forms of medicine were in raw material medicine way,preparing tablet,pill,powder or directly taking its powder.The main active ingredient of Calculus bovi were considered to be bilirubin and bile acids.However,the traditional formulations caused low bioavailability and wasted expensive herbs because its main component were insoluble in water.In recent years,many researchers have tried to use modern preparation technology to prepare its compounding formulations,such as solid dispersion technology,ultrafine grinding technology,powder coating technology,liposome encapsulation technology,or simplifying the prescription by using of known pharmacological effects of soluble components as substitutes.These methods were considered to be feasible to develop new formulations of Calculus bovis.In this paper,in order to provide reference of method and technology for the improvement of Calculus bovis compounding preparation and the development of new dosage form,ultramicrostructure,chemical composition,improvement methods and techniques of compounding preparation were analyzed.In addition,the relevant techniques and method of improving the formulation Calculus bovis compounding preparation in recent years were reviewed.
