The sequences of 5.8S rDNA and the flanking internal transcribed spacers (ITS1 and ITS2) were sequenced from hypha, fruit body and sclerotia of Grifola umbellata and its companion fungus. Their ITS sequences similarity was 99.36%. The results suggested that G. umbellata was closely related to its companion fungus.

Objective To investigate HLA-DPB1, DQB1 gene alleles and their correlation with autoantibodies in type 1 diabetes mellitus. Methods Sequence-based typing was used to determine the alleles of HLA-DPB1 and -DQB1 in 68 patients with type 1 diabetes and 50 healthy controls. Autoantibodies 〔glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody (GADA), islet cell antibody (ICA), insulin autoantibody (IAA)〕were detected by ELISA. Results Compared with the controls, the frequencies of DPB1*0402 and DQB1*0301 were significantly lower in type 1 diabetics (11.76%, 5.15% vs 30.00%, 22,00% respectively, P

Electrophysiology examination is an important technique in studying amblyopia, which mainly includes electrooculography( EOG), electroretinography ( ERG), visual evoked potential( VEP). This study does not only summarizes the definition, the mechanisms and the meaning of these indexes in the relevant research progress in recent years, but also makes a comment on the controversies among the relevant research conclusions.

Objective To prospectively evaluate the safety and therapeutic efficacy ofdalteparin in patients with high risk non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes (ACS) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods Atotal of 175 patients with high risk non-ST-elevation ACS were randomly assigned to 2 groups [dalteparin group and unfractionated heparin (UFH) group]. The patients in dalteparin group were given dalteparin at a dose of 5,000U subcutaneously soon after diagnosis and then an additional 60U/ kg intravenous bolus ofdalteparin before emergent PCI. Vascular access sheaths were removed immediately after PCI or coronary artery angiography; the patients in UFH group were given UFH intravenously at a dose of 25mgjust before PCI and an additional 65mg bolus was administered if angiographic findings showed that the patients were suitable for percutaneous transluminai coronary angioplasty (PTCA). Sheaths were removed at 4-6 hours after PCI; Results Eighty-three patients in dalteparin group underwent PCI while 82 patients in UFH group underwent PCI; anti-Xa activities of 52 patients in dalteparin group were measured. The average anti-Xa activity was (0.83±0.26) U/ml at 15 minutes after intravenous injection of dalteparin and anti-Xa>0.5U/ml was obtained in 96.1% of the patients; hematomas at puncture sites were significantly fewer in dalteparin group as compared with UFH group (2.3% vs 9. 2%, P < 0.05); none of the patients in 2 groups suffered major bleeding events. No death, acute arterial reocclusion or emergent revascularization events occurred at 30 days after PCI. Conclusions Our study demonstrated that early subcutaneous injection of dalteparin at a dose 5,000U after diagnosis and an additional 60U/kg intravenous bolus ofdalteparin before PCI is safe and efficacious for patients with high risk non-ST-elevation ACS undergoing emergent PCI

This paper presented the practice of performance evaluation at public hospitals in Wuhu.The performance evaluation system at public hospitals should emphasize public benefits,present a true picture of work and management performance,and help build the incentive and constraint mechanism.In addition,it should encourage public hospitals to strengthen management,improve quality of care and control health care costs.The system is designed for providing a safe,effective,convenient and inexpensive medical and health services for the people.

Liposome is an artificially prepared spherical vesicle that has a phospholipid bilayer. Given that the basic structure of its biological membrane is also a lipid bilayer membrane, liposome shares similar structures with body cells Therefore, liposome has good biocompatibility and advantages such as biodegradability, low immunogenicity, and subtle toxicity. Liposome has been widely ap-plied as an effective drug carrier. Studies on liposome-encapsulated fluorescent dye on tumor tracing have been reported in recent years. Liposome can become a more advantageous transport carrier with continuous development of surface modification materials and prepa-ration methods. The long cycle, targeted liposome-encapsulated drugs, and fluorescent dye have become the focus of interest for several researchers. This article mainly discusses the application and progress of long cycle and targeted liposome in cancer research.

AIM: To construct a recombinant retrovirus vector carrying hTERT for establishing UCBMSCs with hTERT(hTERT-MSCs) to overcome their limited life span and detecting whether telomerized UCBMSCs line maintained long-term self-renewal and differentiation capacity.METHODS: The whole cDNA was generated by PCR amplifications from the plasmid pEGFP-hTERT-C1.The hTERT segments were subcloned into pLNCX2.The target cells were infected with these retroviral particles.The stably transfected cells were selected by neomycin and expanded life span which were designated hTERT-MSCs was observed.The expression of hTERT in mRNA level was detected by RT-PCR and the telomerase activity was measured by TRAP(PCR)-ELISA assay.The hTERT-MSCs were induced with 5-azacytidine to cardiac muscle cells and the specific marker of myocardiocyte was detected.RESULTS: The constructed plasmids were digested with restriction endonucleases(BglⅡand NotⅠ).Two characteristic segments including 6.1 kb and 3.6 kb were obtained.The hTERT-MSCs expressed hTERT in mRNA level.The telomerase activity of hTERT-MSCs was positive.The growth kinetics of hTERT-MSCs was higher than those in UCBMSCs.The hTERT-MSCs were induced to myocardiocyte.CONCLUSION: The hTERT recombinant retrovirus vector has been successfully constructed.The hTERT gene activates the telomerase and prolongs the life-span of cells.No effect of hTERT gene on some type of differentiation potential of MSCs is present.

BackgroundIt has been well-known that integrin linked kinase(ILK) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of neorascularization.But there are few researches to elucidate the relationship between ILK and retinal nevascularization. Objective This study was to explore the expression and significance of ILK on retinal neovascularization and new vessels regression in the oxygen-induced retinopathy(OIR) mouse model. Methods One hundred and twenty-eight 7-day-old C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into the normal group and model group.The mice were rose in(75±2)％O2 environment with mother mice together for 5 days and then in normal environment for 5 days to establish the OIR models.The mice in normal group were rose in the normal environment for 21 days.The 17-day-old mice were sacrificed and retinal sections were prepared for histopathological examination and the numbers of the cellular nuclei of vascular endotheliumbreaking retinalinternal limiting membranewere calculated.Retinal sections and sheeting were prepared in 12,14,17 and 21 -day-old mice to examine the formation and regression of new blood vessel using ADP histochemistry staining,and then immunochemistry,real-time PCR and Western-blotting were used to detect the expressions of ILK and its mRNA in retina. ResultsThe numbers of the cellular nuclei of vascular endothelium breaking retinal internal limiting membrane were (45.64 ± 12.17 )in OIR group,and those of the normal group were( 0.35±0.14 )with a significant difference between two groups (t =22.85,P＜0.05).Retinal new blood vessel appeared in 14-day mice,and peaked in 17-day mice and then regression in 21-day mice.ILK protein was expressed mainly in retinal ganglion cell layer,inner nuclear layer,inner plexiform layer and photoreceptor layer.Real-time PCR showed that ILK mRNA expressing levels in retina in model group were( 1.00±0.22),(1.85±0.17),(1.58±0.43) and(1.53±0.36) respectively in 12-,14-,17- and 21-day mice.Westernblotting determined that the A value of the ILK/β-actin was increased in 12-,14-,17-day mice and decreased in 21-day mice,and the A values were significantly higher in model group than the control group in various aged mice ( t =2.97,P＜0.05 ;t =11.88,P＜0.01 ;t =16.84,P＜0.01 ;t =13.00,P＜0.01 ). ConclusionsThese results indicate a space-time corresponding relation between the expression of ILK and retinal neovascularization.The obvious positive expression of ILK may be highly correlated with retinal neovascularization.
