One hepatitis C virus(HCV) cDNA fragment, 534bp in length and designated as Q534, was obtained by means of PCR amplification with self-designed oligonucleotide primers. Q534 was doned into Hinc II site of pUC18 and the- recombinant plasmid pQ534 was then selected from the bacterial transformants. The sequence data indicated the Q534 was a cDNA fragment of HCV core gene, and located in HCV genome from positions 320 to 853 in correspondence with Chiron's prototype sequence. The homologies between Q534 and the prototype at the levels of nucleotides and amino adds were 90.9% and 97.6%, respectively. The homologies of Q534 with Japanese HCV-J and HCV-BK strains were 96.8% and 97.0% at the nucleotide level, and 98.2% and 98.8% at the amino add level. Compared with the corresponding sequences of other HCV isolates, this Chinese HCV isolate we obtained in the present study belongs to HCV group II .

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of the urine micro albumin(MA)and urine enzyme detections in early renal injury in children with allergic purpura.Methods 120 patients with allergic purpura were chosen as the research sub-jects and divided into the early renal injury group and non-renal injury group according to whether having the renal injury.Contem-poraneous 40 healthy children were chosen as the healthy control group.The urine MA and urine enzyme levels were detected and compared among the various groups.Results MA was (17.5 ±3.8)mg/L in the study group,transferring(TRF)was (0.56 ± 0.34)mg/L,β2-MG was (0.35 ±0.07 )mg/L,NAG was (18.6 ±5.1 )U/g,which were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group,the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05 );in the early renal injury group,MA was (42.1 ± 21.3)mg/L,TRF was (1.65±0.54)mg/L,β2-MG was (0.43±0.06)mg/L and NAG was (23.1±5.12)U/L,which were signif-icantly higher than those in the non-renal injury group,the differences had statistically significance (P <0.05).Conclusion The de-tection of urine MA and urine enzyme can be used as the indexes for monitoring the early renal injury in children with allergic pur-pura,and is conducive to early discovery,in time intervention and reduce the occurrence of complications.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of TLR4 signaling pathway in secretory otitis media of rats.METHODS Rats SOM models were made by infusing FS and LPS to the middle otocysts. The rats were killed separately at the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th,11th and13th day(5 rats each time). And then the expressions of TLR4, iNOS, IL-8mRNA of middle ear mucosae were detected. NF-?B was also detected through the method of immunohistochemistry. RESULTS The expressions of TLR4mRNA, iNOS and IL-8mRNA in middle ear mucosae of SOM group were significantly higher than that of control group. Immunohistochemistry method showed that the activation of NF-?B in middle ear mucosae was obviously increased in SOM. CONCLUSION The expression of TLR4 was obviously increased in SOM and it activates the NF-?B, promotes the expression of downstream IL-8. That maybe the mechanism which cause SOM.

As a young discipline imported from the West,Chinese bioethics has made tremendous achievements in the last three decades.However,at the same time,there are also certain confusions about its ideaistic origins and academic development.Observing the trends in the growth of western bioethics and the changes in the contemporary real social life,we can see that it is the time to break the current bottleneck for the contemporary development of Chinese bioethics.Specifically,Chinese bioethics should shift its attention to the quality of life,and manifests its thought depth and academic value through reflecting the reality.Advancing with the times,the bioethics is bound to have a brighter future.

Originated from the practice of wars,military medical ethics generated great concern on bioethics from its origination.Bioethics is generated independently in military field,thus forms particular domains in military medical ethics: battlefield euthanasia,battlefield organ transplants,military medical research,vaccine use,public health emergencies,and ecological ethics.

Objective To investigate the expression of lipoprotein(a)and fibrinogen different genders of patients with coronary heart disease(CHD)and its clinical significance.Methods 1 500 patients with CHD in the hospital from January 2009 to December 2013 were selected as the observation group,including 954 males and 546 females.Contemporaneous 500 healthy people with physi-cal examination were selected as the control group,including 329 males and 171 females.The myocardial enzymes,serum lipid,blood coagulation function and various proteins were detected.Results Whether males or females,CK,CKMB,AST,LDH,α-HBDH, TC,TG,LDL-C,Fib,D-D,TT,FDP,LPa,cTnI,MYO and HCY in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group.HDL-C,APTT,INR and PT in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group.The differences were statistically significant(P <0.05 ).Conclusion Whether males or females,the different degrees of abnormal ex-pression of myocardial enzyme spectral indexes,blood lipid indexes,coagulation indexes,apolipoprotein,troponin,myoglobin and ho-mocysteine exist in the patients with CHD.Lipoprotein(a)and fibrinogen have high expression in the CHD patients,which can pro-vide the reliable scientific basis for diagnosis and treatment of the disease.

Vaccination has been proved to be the most effective strategy to prevent the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). The mRNA vaccine based on nano drug delivery system (NDDS) - lipid nanoparticles (LNP) has been widely used because of its high effectiveness and safety. Although there have been reports of severe allergic reactions caused by mRNA-LNP vaccines, the mechanism and components of anaphylaxis have not been completely clarified yet. This review focuses on two mRNA-LNP vaccines, BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273. After summarizing the structural characteristics, potential allergens, possible allergic reaction mechanism, and pharmacokinetics of mRNA and LNP in vivo, this article then reviews the evaluation methods for patients with allergic history, as well as the regulations of different countries and regions on people who should not be vaccinated, in order to promote more safe injection of vaccines. LNP has become a recognized highly customizable nucleic acid delivery vector, which not only shows its value in mRNA vaccines, but also has great potential in treating rare diseases, cancers and other broad fields in the future. At the moment when mRNA-LNP vaccines open a new era of nano medicine, it is expected to provide some inspiration for safety research in the process of research, development and evaluation of more nano delivery drugs, and promote more nano drugs successfully to market.

Objective To identify genes differentially expressed in the window of implantation and explore the molecular basis of the development of endometrial receptivity.Methods A subtracted cDNA library of the window of implantation was constructed by suppression subtractive hybridization(SSH) method.The screened clones of the subtracted library were sequenced and GenBank homology search was performed.The differential expression of ribosomal protein(RP)L7,RPL7 pseudogene(RPL7p),RPL19 and tyrosine 3-monooxygenase/tryptophan 5-monooxygenase activation protein zeta polypeptide(YWHAZ) were further confirmed by RT-PCR.Results After sequencing and GenBank homology search of 50 clones, 35 differentially expressed genes were detected in the window of implantation,of which 23 were known genes,and 12 were unknown genes.Some of the known genes have been proved to be associated with implantation,while others were firstly screened out by us.The results of RT-PCR confirmed that RPL7, RPL7p,RPL19 and YWHAZ were highly expressed in the window of implantation,0.75?0.21,1.72? 0.30,1.23?0.31,and 1.28?0.08,respectively.Conclusions SSH is a useful technique to detect differential expression genes and an effective method to clone novel genes.It provides a new method to investigate the molecular basis of the development of endometrial receptivity.
