Dami) existed. The transcriptional levels of survivin gene in K562/ADR cell strain was 1.6-fold higher than that in K562 cell strain,but wasn't detected in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMNCs).All-trans retinoic acid significantly decreased survivin mRNA expression levels. CONCLUSION: These data suggest that the survivin gene might be a potential therapeutics target due to the role in anti-apoptosis and drug resistance.

Trypsin was purified from crude material of pig pancreas by AOT/isooctane reversed micellar system.The influence of the main operating parameters such as ethanol concentration in forward and backward extraction,pH,KCl and AOT concentration,temperature were investigated.Forward and backward extraction recovery of trypsin reached almost 90% and neared 100%,respectively.Finally,about 88% of total yield was obtained,and the specific activity of trypsin was increased to over 1800U/mg with purification factor of 5 folds more.In AOT-isooctane reverse micellar extraction system,denaturation or precipitation of proteins always occured due to strong electrostatic interaction between AOT-proteins molecules.It had been resolved by adding ethanol into reverse micellar system,and no denaturation was observed.Otherwise,the phase separation time was shortened significantly because of ethanol added.It was only 10 minutes or less to reach phases separation after forward and backward extraction.If this method can be applied in industry,efficiency will be greatly improved.

Intestinal schistosomiasis is a kind of intravascular parasitic diseases, and chronic inflammation of colon is one of the basic pathological changes of the sickness.However, the mechanism of caveolin-1 and tight junction proteins in the pathogenesis of intestinal schistosomiasis is still unclear.Aims: To study the expressions and significances of caveolin-1 and tight junction protein occludin, claudin-1 in schistosomiasis colitis in mice.Methods: Forty BALB/c male mice were randomly divided into control group and infection group.Schistosomiasis colitis model was established by placing 40 Schistosoma Japonicum cercarie on the abdomen.Mice were sacrificed after 8 weeks.HE staining was performed.The permeability of intestinal vascular endothelium was detected by Evans blue method.The leukocyte counts in peritoneal lavage fluid were measured.qPCR was used to determine the mRNA expressions of caveolin-1, occludin, claudin-1 and eNOS in colon tissue.Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the protein expressions of caveolin-1 and occludin.Results: Large number of egg granuloma was observed in colon submucosa and accompanied by extensive inflammatory cells infiltration in infection group.Compared with control group, content of Evans blue and leukocyte counts in peritoneal lavage fluid were significantly increased (P<0.05);mRNA expressions of caveolin-1, occludin, claudin-1 were significantly decreased (P<0.01);protein expressions and positivity rates of caveolin-1 and occludin were significantly decreased in infection group (P<0.05).Conclusions: Down-regulation of expressions of caveolin-1, occludin and claudin-1 can induce leukocyte accumulation via increasing the permeability of intestinal vascular endothelial cells, thereby involving in the development of schistosomiasis colitis.

Objective To explore the clinic value and efficacy of color Doppler ultrasound guided percutaneous microwave/radiorequency thermoablation for secondary hyperparathyroidism. Methods Fifty-six cases of secondary hyperparathyroidism who came from nephrology department of Beijing Friendship Hospital in the period of September 2012 to September 2013 were treated by color Doppler ultrasound guided percutaneous microwave/radiorequency thermoablation. One hundred and thirty-eight glands underwent this treatment and were evaluated by contrast enhanced ultrasound before, during and after operation. The levels of serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) were measured before and at 1 week, 1 month, 6 months and 1 year after treatment. Results The whole 56 cases achieved 1 month follow-up and 34 cases and 12 cases achieved 6 months and 1 year follow-up, respectively. Two special cases had been excluded. The PTH levels of 54 cases were signiifcantly different between after and before treatment [(369.5±183.4) ng/L vs (1321.6±471.4) ng/L, t=10.727, P=0.000]. The PTH levels continued to fall at the ifrst week after treatment, but there was no statistical signiifcance between the ifrst week and the ifrst day after treatment [(324.6±172.8) ng/L vs (369.5±183.4) ng/L], while there was signiifcantly different between the ifrst week after treatment and before treatment [(324.6±172.8) ng/L vs (1321.6±471.4) ng/L, t=9.364, P=0.000]. The PTH levels increased from (324.6±172.8) ng/L to (332.5±164.9) ng/L at 1 week and 1 month after ablation, while there was no signiifcant difference.But there is signiifcantly different between 1 month after treatment and before treatment (t=11.348, P=0.000). The PTH level at 6 months after treatment [(205.2±136.3) ng/L] and 1 year after treatment [(177.1±171.5) ng/L] had signiifcant difference compared with the value before treatment (t=8.737, P=0.000; t=7.655, P=0.017). Conclusion Color Doppler ultrasound guided percutaneous microwave/radiorequency thermoablation can be considered as a feasible and effective nonsurgical alternative treatment for secondary hyperparathyroidism patients.

AlM: To analyze, summarize and describe ophthalmic imaging features of posterior scleritis.
METHODS: Clinical data of 16 patients ( 21 eyes ) with posterior scleritis diagnosed in our hospital from October 2008 to June 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. The results of type-B ultrasonic, fundus chromophotograph, fundus fluorescein angiography, CT were recorded for comprehensive evaluation and analysis of ophthalmic imaging features of posterior scleritis.
RESULTS: All patients underwent type-B ultrasonic examination and manifested as diffuse and nodular types. The diffuse type showed diffusely thickened sclera and a dark hypoechoic area that connected with the optic nerve to form a typical “T”-shaped sign. The nodular type showed scleral echogenic nodules and relatively regular internal structure. FFA showed that relatively weak mottled fluorescences were visible in the arterial early phase and strong multiple needle-like fluorescences were visible in the arteriovenous phase, which were then progressively larger and fused; fluorescein was leaked to the subretinal tissue in the late phase;varying degrees of strong fluorescences with less clear or unclear boundaries were visible in the optic disk. CT results showed thickened eyeball wall.
CONCLUSlON: Posterior scleritis is common in young female patients, whose ophthalmic imaging features are varied and more specific in type-B ultrasonic. Selection of rational ophthalmic imaging examination method, combined with clinical manifestations, can accurately diagnose posterior scleritis and avoid the incidence of missed and delayed diagnosis.
