A promoter fragment (7S?P ) of ? subunit gene was isolated by PCR from genomic DNA in various soybean accessions, including cultivars Nannong99-10,N2899,Nannong 88-1, and wild soybeans Jiangpu -1 and ZYD4174.The sequences of 7S?P fragment from these five soybean accessions shared 99% homology, this indicated that the promoter regions of ? subunit gene were conserved. Meanwhile , sequencing analysis showed that the 7S?P fragment contained several seed-specific motifs, such as RY motif, AGCCCA motif, ACGT motif and A/ T rich motif. The expression vector pBI121-7S?P was constructed with the 7S?P fragment (from Nannong99-10) and the GFP reporter gene for functional analysis. Arabidopsis plants were transformed by Agrobacterium mediated method. Southern blot results showed that the 7S?P had been integrated into the genome of Arabidopsis. Assay of GFP expression in the seeds of transgenic Arabidopsis was determined to identify the function of 7S?P promoter. The results showed that 7S?P was a seed-specific promoter.

Objective To observe the effect of case-based learning (CBL) applied in ward-round on residents training. Methods A total of 33 residents trained with routine ward-round and CBL ward-round in the neurological department were investigated with questionnaire. Results 30 effective answers were recalled. More of them reported that CBL ward-round was very significant in improving clinical thinking, mastering the specialized knowledge, developing autonomous learning and improving the communication with patients and their family members (P<0.05). Conclusion CBL ward-round is effective on improving the comprehensive professional abilities of residents.

Objective To compare the characteristics of hMPV infection in BALB/c and SCID mice.Methods BALB/c and SCID mice were infected intranasally with GFP-rhMPV,and sacrificed on day 3,5,7,9 and 14 post inoculation.Heart,liver,spleen,lungs,kidneys and brain of the animals were used for viral isolation,titration,pulmonary histopathology and detection of GFP-hMPV mRNA expression by RT-PCR and real-time PCR.Results Live viruses were successfully isolated from the lungs of infected mice.Viral titers peaked on the 5th day post inoculation.Viruses remained to be detectable on the 14th day post inoculation in SCID mice,but not in BALB/c mice,whereas genomic RNA of GFP-rhMPV was detectable by PCR targeting F gene in infected BALB/c mice.Live viruses were not able to be isolated from heart,liver,spleen,kidney and brain,neither was genomic RNA of hMPV able to be detected on the 5 th day post inoculation by RT-PCR and real-time PCR.Histopathology of lungs was characterized by interstitial pneumonia on 5 days post inoculation.Lung pathology score of BALB/c mice group was slightly lower than SCID,and the difference was not statistically significant.Conclusion GFP-rhMPV can only replicate in the immunocompetent and immunodeficient mouse lungs,but not in other organs.As compared to that in BALB/c mice,the viral replication appears to be more efficiently and for longer time in SCID mouse lungs probably due to the absence of host cellular and humaral immunity,but this does not necessarily result in more severe pathological lesion.

Objective To study the morphological changes of diaphragm of rats with omethoate poisoning and the protection of penehyclidine hydrochloride.Methods The experimental model of Wistar rats was made by eliac injection ofomethoate,96 rats was divided randomly into four groups in average:the hrinematched control group (Group NO);the omethoate intoxication matched control group (Group PO);atropine and pralidoxime chloride cure group (Group AC); penehyclidine hydrochlofide and pralidoximc chloride cure group (Group PC).The whole blood cholinesterase (ChE) and creatinekinase (CK) activtitise were measured 2 h after poisoning.To observe the morphological changes of diaphragmat different time from 1 to 7 days.Results All the poisoned rats showed that the diaphragmatic histologic damage of the penehyclidine hydrochloride and pralidoxime chloride cure group was slighter than that of atropine cure group.Conclusion A possible reasons of the respiratory muscle paralysis conduced by AOPP was the putrescence of diaphragm muscle fiber, and penehyclidine hydrochloride could definitely protect the diaphragm of rats with omethoate poisoning,and we could deduce that it prevented from intermediate myasthenia syndrome.

Background and purpose:Heparanase is an endo?-D-glucuronindise that degrades the HS sdie chains of heparin sulphate proteoglycans in ECM,expressed in the human normal placenta and immune organ.Expression of heparanase significantly increases in many kinds of cancers,it plays a central and specific role in the regulation of tumor metastasis and invasion.This article evaluates the effect of heparanase gene on the proliferation,adhesion and invasion of human ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3 cells.Methods:Human ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3 was cultured in optimum medium and transfected with pCDNA3.0-HPA by Lipofectamine~(TM2000),and cells transfected with blank vector pCDNA3.0 were used as control.The expression of HPA mRNA,and HPA protein in SKOV3,SKOV3/neo,and SKOV3/HPA were detected by RT-PCR and immunohistochemical staining;cell growth kinetics and the ability of invading was detected by MTT and transwell-ECM methode;the ability of adhesion and separation among same cells were evaluated by cell-adhering and separating method;Flow cytometry was used to test cell cycle.Results:RT-PCR and immunohistochemical staining showed that over-expression of HPA mRNA and protein in pCDNA3.0-HPA transfected cells in comparison with that in the parental SKOV3 cells and the cells transfected with blank vector(P

Objective To assess the effect of QRS duration (QRSd) and cardiac function during right ventricular apex(RVA) pacing,right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) pacing and right ventricular bifocal (RV-Bi) pacing. Methods Eight patients underwent RVA pacing,RVOT pacing and RV-Bi pacing during pacemaker implantation operation.The ejection fraction (EF),stroke index (SV),cardiac output(CO),QRS QRSd,QRS axis (QRSa) were measured after each pacing at the same pacing frequency. Results Compared with RVA pacing,the EF,SV and CO increased during RVOT pacing and RV-Bi pacing.The cardiac function of RV-Bi pacing was significantly increased (P

The present paper proposed a central-driven structure of upper limb rehabilitation robot in order to reduce the volume of the robotic arm in the structure, and also to reduce the influence of motor noise, radiation and other adverse factors on upper limb dysfunction patient. The forward and inverse kinematics equations have been obtained with using the Denavit-Hartenberg (D-H) parameter method. The motion simulation has been done to obtain the angle-time curve of each joint and the position-time curve of handle under setting rehabilitation path by using Solid Works software. Experimental results showed that the rationality with the central-driven structure design had been verified by the fact that the handle could move under setting rehabilitation path. The effectiveness of kinematics equations had been proved, and the error was less than 3° by comparing the angle-time curves obtained from calculation with those from motion simulation.
