1.Fast and Almost 100% Efficiency Site-directed Mutagenesis by The Megaprimer PCR Method
Progress in Biochemistry and Biophysics 2009;36(11):1490-1494
A novel PCR-based mutagenesis method was reported, in which there is no need to purify megaprimers or design a special flanking primer. This method used one mutagenic primer and two sequencing primers (T_m≤58℃) as flanking primers. After first round PCR, 12.5 μl first PCR production was directly added into 50 μl second PCR system as template and megaprimer, and 10 rounds of asymmetrical PCR at high temperature of annealing (68 ℃ ) was to add in initiation of second PCR. This additional step greatly has increased the efficiency of mutagenesis via 600 bp or 800 bp long megaprimer. The results demonstrated that this method can achieve high fidelity, 97%~ 98% efficiency, high yield.

Objective To study the effect of 3,4-oxo-isopropylidene-shikimic acid (ISA) on transcription factor STAT1, STAT3 and NF-?B in human cervix cancer Hela cell. Methods The cell proliferation was assessed by MTT assay. The luciferase activity of transcription factor STAT1, STAT3 and NF-?B was determined by the Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay System. Results ISA can not inhibited the growth of Hela cell. The luciferase activity of transcription factor NF-?B in Hela cells treated with ISA was inhibited, while the luciferase activities of transcription factor STAT1 and STAT3 were not inhibited. Conclusion ISA can inhibit inflammation, which may be related with suppression of NF-?B transcriptional activity.

In this paper an expert system for remote fault diagnosis in the ship lift was developed by analysis of the fault tree and combination with VPN. The fault tree was constructed based on the operation condition of the ship lift. The diagnosis model was constructed by hierarchical classification of the fault tree structure, and the inference mechanism was given. Logical structure of the fault diagnosis in the ship lift was proposed. The implementation of the expert system for remote fault diagnosis in the ship lift was discussed, and the expert system developed was realized on the VPN virtual network. The system was applied to the Gaobaozhou ship lift project, and it ran successfully.

Objective To analyze and discuss the possible reasons of the bone resorption beneath the prostheses after chin augmentation.Methods Twelve patients were admitted to our department for further correction after chin augmentation with materials.The bone resorption was observed through the clinical research and X-ray examination.Results All the patients were underwent the removal of the materials,genioplasty was performed in 8 patients,and two patients were treated by chin augmentation with polyethylene.All the patients were satisfied with their facial contouring.Mild bone resorption was found in seven patients (depth of bone resorption ≤2 mm),in which five patients were used with silicone materials,two patients were performed with expanded polytetrafluoroethylene implants.Moderate bone resorption was seen in three cases.All of them were used with silicone implants (2 mm < depth of bone resorption ≤4 mm).Severe bone resorption happened in two patients (depth of bone resorption >4 mm).One was used with silicone implant,and the other one was carried out with expanded polytetrafluoroethylene implant.Conclusions The imbalance among mentalis muscle,materials and underlying bone might be one of the key reasons.Thus for mild and moderate microgenia cases,chin augmentation with material is suitable,while long-term fellow-up study is necessary.But for the cases of severe mirogenia or microgenia and micrognathia with dentofacial deformity or mentalis muscle hyperactivity,genioplasty might be performed as well to correct their deformities.

Objective To assess the dose reduction potential of adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction(ASiR)and model-based iterative reconstruction(MBIR)in pelvic CT with a standard male phantom.Methods A Fluke Biomedical RANDO standard male phantom was scanned with discovery CT750 HD using different tube currents.CT images were reconstructed with FBP,50%ASiR and MBIR.The CT value,the image noise and the contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)for the sacral vertebra relative to muscle were measured.The volume CT dose indexes(CTDIvo1)and dose-length product(DLP)were recorded.Results Compared with FBP,using 50%ASiR and MBIR had significant reduced image noise and greater CNR.The effective minimal tube currents for displaying sacral vertebra were 250 mA(FBP),180 mA(50%ASiR),and 100 mA(MBIR).With the similar image quality using FBP,the dose was reduced by 28.0% and 59.9% using 50%ASiR and MBIR,respectively.Conclusions Using advanced iterative algorithms can reduce image noise,improve CNR,and reduce the radiation dose in pelvic CT examination.
