?AIM: To explore the effects of “one week with one case” teaching method with college - enterprise cooperation in the theoretical classes of contact lens courses, which provide the basis for teaching reform.?METHODS: Fifty-six students in optometry major of Grade 2012 from Xi’an Medical College were divided into 2 groups randomly. The experimental group of 28 students used “one week with one case” teaching method with college-enterprise cooperation; the control group of 28 people used traditional “one week with one case”teaching method. The examination scores and questionnaire were used to evaluate the teaching effects.?RESULTS:The students of experimental group acquired higher test scores in short-answer questions and the case analysis questions compared with students of control group (P<0. 05). The questionnaire survey showed the“one week with one case” teaching method with college-enterprise cooperation acquired higher scores in 6 items which include the intensity of learning interest, information acquisition ability, team cooperation ability, communication skills, oral communication ability and the satisfaction of teaching method (P<0. 05). Four items included participation, preparation, communication ability and team spirit of experimental group students were significantly superior to those of the control group students (P<0. 05).?CONCLUSION:“One week with one case” teaching method with college-enterprise cooperation can improve comprehensive ability of students. It is an effective teaching method with the characteristics of the contact lens courses.

Objective To silence the expression of tissue factor(TF) gene of human umbilical vein endothelial cell(HUVECs) of the newborns with placental abruption(PA) and normal newborns.Methods There were two groups in the experiment,normal group and PA group.Three different treatments were established in each group:(1) the blank; (2) the false-intervention ; (3) the TF gene silencing.There were three samples in each treatments.After these treatments,the changes of mRNA expression of the HUVECs were observed before and aftcr thc gene silencing and the changes of the immunofluorescence of the TF protein level.Results After amplificated,plasmid DNA were sequenced to show that the pENTRTM/U6-TF-shRNA was the positive clone.After the transfected,the levels of the mRNA of TF decreased from 0.657 ± 0.097 to 0.220 ± 0.030 and 1.323 ± 0.323 to 0.207 ± 0.150 in the normal and PA group respectively.Compared with the normal group,there were significant differences for the levels of TF mRNA in PA group with the blank,(1.323 ± 0.323 vs 0.657 ± 0.097,P =0.023) and the same result for the second management (1.057 ±0.178 vs 0.540 ± 0.079,P =0.01).But there was no significant difference between the normal and PA group after RNA interference gene silencing (0.220 ± 0.030 vs 0.207 ± 0.150,P > 0.05).Meanwhile,there were significant differences among the three managements in the themselves groups of normal and pathological ones(F =19.30,P =0.002 ;F =27.66,P =0.001).Conclusion The vectors are transfected into HUVECs and play the biological function.And they silence the expression of TF mRNA.PENTRTM/U6-TF-shRNA could inhibit the expression of TF mRNA of HUVECs in the PA newborn.

Objective To discuss the effect of two different warming methods on the circulation of free flaps during operation and seek for an optimal warming method which is benificial for the circulation of free flaps, and thus provide clinical evidences for intraoperative care. Methods A total of 96 patients undergoing free flap transplantation were divided into routine warming group and diversification warming group randomly (n=48 each). In routine warming group, temperature in the operating room was set at routine temperature and flaps were douched by routine heated saline. In diversification warming group, the temperature in the operation room, fluids used for washing wounds and flaps were warmed, fluids for intravenous application were pre-warmed by a fluid warmer, in addition, the operation table where patients were lying on was covered with warmer blanket. The influence of two different warming methods on the circulation of free flaps was observed. Results The scores of flap elasticity and capillary refill time in routine warming group were 2.02 ± 0.79 and 2.04 ± 0.81, respectively, vs. 2.50 ± 0.61 and 2.48 ± 0.6 in diversification warming group, showing diversification warming group was statistically better than routine warming group (Z=1.949, 3.872, P<0.05). In addition, the flap survival rate in routine warming group was 81.2%(39/48) vs. 95.8%(46/48) in diversification warming group, showing significantly better results in diversification warming group (χ2=4.02, P < 0.05). Conclusions The diversification warm keeping method can effectively promote the circulation and survival of flaps, improve clinical prognosis, accelerate postoperative rehabilitation, therefore is worthy of being recommanded its clinical application.

To clone, express and primarily use human autoantigen Sm D1 in methylotrophic yeast Pichia Pastoris. The gene Sm D1 was cloned by PCR.The PCR product was inserted into the vector pPIC9k. The recombinant plasmid pPIC9k- Sm D1 was transformed into yeast SMD1168 by electroporation. The positive clones were screened in MD plates. The high copy number transformants were rapidly selected by using G418 and were induced by methanol. Supernatants after induction were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and im-munodot. The PCR product was showed about 360 bp in size which was in accordance with predicted. The pPIC9k-Sm D1 showed the same seqencing result with GenBank’s report and restriction enzyme analysis confirmed our prediction. The pPIC9k-Sm D1 positive clone produced an about 16 kD protein which had natural immunogenicity of human autoantigen Sm D1 by SDS-PAGE and immunodot. The sensitivity and specificity of immunodot were 96% and 100%, respectively. The agreement between immunodot and im-munoblot was 98%. Successfully cloning and high-level expression of human autoantigen Sm D1 in methy-lotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris laid a foundation for further research work.

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that usually takes many years from preclinical phase to prodromal phase characterized by mild symptoms before the onset of dementia. Once diagnosed with AD, the brain is already severely damaged and the disease will process quickly to the most severe stages since there is no medications that reverse the neuronal injuries in the brain. Thus, simple, inexpensive, and widely available methods for detecting potential AD patients during their preclinical phases are urgently needed. In such case, olfactory testing may offer a chance for early diagnosis of AD. However, there are limitations in these olfactory tests due to the complexity of the brain areas it extends to and the frequently olfactory fatigue occurred in the behavioral olfactory tests. Great efforts have been done epidemiologically to investigate the correlation between olfactory functions and possibility of developing AD. Different patterns of olfactory dysfunction have been found in AD at early stages and even mild cognitive impairment (MIC), but the cause of the dysfunction remained unclear. Various kinds of AD animal models have been used in the field to clarify the existence of olfactory dysfunctions and thus study the underling mechanism of the dysfunction. In this review we discuss (1) the function of Tau physiologically and pathologically; (2) the genetic background and biological characteristics of the most commonly used Tau transgenic mice; (3) the structural and molecule basis of olfaction; (4) the possible relationship between Tau pathology and olfactory dysfunction. Finally, we suggest that the tau transgenic mouse models may be helpful in studying the possible mechanisms of the dysfunction.

An HPLC method for the determination of geniposide concentration in mouse plasma was developed and the pharmacokinetics after intranasal administration of Xingnaojing microemulsion (XNJ-M) and mPEG2000-PLA modified Xingnaojing microemulsion (XNJ-MM) were investigated. Eighty mice were treated by XNJ-M and XNJ-MM nasally. The plasma samples were collected at different times and the drug in samples was detected by HPLC. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by the software of Kinetica. The pharmacokinetic parameters of geniposide of XNJ-M were C(max) (4.36 +/- 2.69) mg x L(-1), t(max) 1 min, MRT (29.73 +/- 4.54) min, AUC (53.63 +/- 14.03) mg x L(-1) x min. The pharmacokinetic parameters of geniposide of XNJ-MM were C(max) (9.75 +/- 4.14) mg x L(-1), t(max) 1 min, MRT(22.34 +/- 2.90) min, AUC (131.87 +/- 40.13) mg x L(-1) x min. Geniposide can be absorbed into blood in a higher degree after intranasal administration with XNJ-MM compared to XNJ-M, which maybe caused by its less irritating and more absorption.
