Objective To explore alterations of cognitive function and P300 in depressed patients with Parkinson's disease(PD).Methods Zung's self-rating depression scale(SDS) and Hamilton depression rating scale(HAMD) were used to divide the 67 patients with PD into two groups, PD with depression and PD without depression. The cognitive function and P300 were measured, further comparing and the correlation analysis were made.Results The score of Mini-mental state examination (MMSE) in the PD patients was in normal extent,but significantly lower than that in the normal controls(P

Objective:To obtain a large amount of erythromycin B and to investigate the activity site in eryK. Methods:The key sequence of the BC loop region in eryK gene was knocked out and the eryK gene with 101 bp deleted was amplified by overlapping PCR,and cloned into vector pWHM3 to construct recombinant plasmid. The Saccharopolyspora erythraea mutant AK17 was constructed through chromosomal homologous recombination technique.Results and Conclusions:The S.erythraea mutant AK17 was constructed. The results of TCL and MS analysis showed that the major fermentation product of AK17 is erythromycin B.

OBJECTIVE:To determine 5-Fu concentration in serum,peritoneal fluid and tissue by HPLC in patients undergoing rectal cancer operation and receiving regional chemotherapy.METHODS:20 patients who undergoing rectal cancer operation and receiving regional chemotherapy were administered with drugs,whose blood samples were taken from portal veins,peripheral veins,peritoneal fluid and tissues around tumor at 2,5,10,20,30 and 60min,respectively after administration for the determination of 5-FU by HPLC.RESULTS:Peak concentrations in all samples appeared 2 minutes after administration,but lowered gradually thereafter.The drug level in peritoneal fluid was the highest,but was the lowest in the tissue,and that in the portal vein was higher than in peripheral veins.CONCLUSION:For patients who undergoing rectal cancer operation,regional chemotherapy could maintain 5-FU concentration at a higher level in portal vein,peritoneal fluid and tissue around cancer,which has significance in the prevention of metastasis to the local sites and liver after rectal cancer operation.

Breast calcification is a specific sign of nonpalpable early breast cancer,the accurate localization and biopsy can obviously improve the diagnosis rate of early breast cancer,and imaging-guided needle localization is the premise of accurate biopsy of breast calcification.As the recommended guidance,mammography-guided localization and biopsy has certain limitations in localizing and biopsying breast calcification,however,high-resolution uhrasound makes it possible to localize the nonpalpable calcification in breast,and which has a certain advantage.

Fine needle aspiration cytopathology of the breast is an effective means of distinguishing malignant from benign,and the aspirated sample collections techniques is the primary and key part of fine needle aspiration.Fine needle aspiration cell block has been improved and used on preoperative breast cancer molecular portraits.This paper will provide an introduction to application of specimens collection techniques,application and development of fine needle aspiration cell block on preoperative breast cancer molecular portraits.

Objective To investigate the relationship between diffusion time and diffusion tensor-derived parameters. Method Diffusion tensor data sets were obtained from 11 healthy volunteers using 8 different levels of diffusion time while keeping the diffusion sensitive gradient magnetic field strength fixed. Diffusion tensor-derived parameters with variant diffusion time for six regions of interest were calculated and compared. Result There was statistically significant difference in mean diffusivity (MD) of variant diffusion time (P0.05). Conclusion There is no diffusion time dependent in FA, but MD are diffusion time dependent. The reason may be attributed to the difference of the diffusion properties between the intra- and extra-cellular water molecules.

Cell viability of Pichia pastoris was detected by flow cytometry (FCM) with two reagents fluorescein diacetate (FDA) and propidium iodide (PI). Compared with FDA/PI double-stained dot plots and PI single-stained dot plots,the latter could divide dead and living cells into two separate zones,and get the correct proportion. Then PI single-stained method was used to detect the change of cell viability in Pichia patoris fermentation. At glycerol batch and fed-batch phase,little dead cells were detected. At methanol fed-batch phase,cell viability decreased when cell weight increased,and was only 73.8% at 88 h.

Proteolytic degradation has been a severe problem when Pichia pastoris is employed to express recombinant proteins.One alternative method to circumvent this problem is to construct protease gene disruptant.However,the main study of gene disruption is focused on nonrecombinant Pichia pastoris rather than recombinant strain.In our study,we established two different methods to directly disrupt PRC1 and KEX1 gene in recombinant Pichia pastoris.On the basis of this,we further discussed and compared the application and advantages of both methods.
