As a new interdisciplinary course, the current paper writing course for medical postgraduates exhibits certaln disadvantages. For example, the course does not well target the learners' needs because of the absence of the needs analysis before class;English or biomedical teachers fall to combine English with medicine, thus unable to provide ideal courses. As textbooks are an important means to improve the quality of the course, one way to reform the course is to compile high-quality textbooks by interdisciplinary talents. Meanwhile, the compiling process should be guided by needs analysis as well as the teaching and editing experiences. In addition, the textbooks need to be con-tinuously improved in teaching practice.

With globalization of biomedicine,Chinese postgraduates in medical colleges are facing increasing challenges.Writing and publishing research papers in English have become an essential requirement for their graduation and career development,but for non-native English speakers,having a good command of English for academic purposes (EAP) is of special difficulty.In China,lack of self-written textbooks is a bottleneck that restricts the teaching of EAP.Therefore,guided by EAP theories,this study carries out in-depth demand analysis for graduate students in medical colleges and universities,and designs a textbook framework with genre analysis theory.Based on self-established corpus finally completed an EAP writing textbook for postgraduates of biomedicine.This textbook and the writing and research process can provide implications for construction of EAP textbooks in other principles,thus promoting the all-round development of postgraduate education in China.

Objective To study the mechanism of Wuzi Yanzong Wan (Five-Seed Progeny Pill) on improving heat stress resistance of sertoli cells in rats based on data from the whole genome microarray.Methods Sertoli cells in primary culture were randomly divided into Wuzi Yanzong Wan (WZYZW) group, normal group and model group.The cells in three groups were given WZYZW solution and equal volume of PBS respectively.After 24 hours, rats in WZYZW group and model group were placed in water bath at 43 ℃ for 15 minutes, while rats in normal group were put in water bath at 37 ℃ for 15 minutes, then total RNA of three groups were extracted respectively and data was analyzed with gene chip technology.Results Compared with the model group, there were totally 1,203 differently genes in WZYZW group based on Sertoli cell gene expression profiles, in which 697 were down regulated and 506 were up-regulated.There were totally 473 differently expressed genes in the normal group, including 168 up-regulated genes and 305 down regulated genes.Among these down-regulated gene expressions, RGD1305298, Trpt1, Dll3, Abi3 and Ppp1r12b were significant in the WZYZW group and normal group, while Dusp7 was significant among up-regulated gene expressions.The genes mentioned above were related to cell cycle, apoptosis, cell metabolism, cell adhesion and Notch signal pathway, regulation of actin cytoskeleton, MAPK signaling pathway and tight junction pathway, etc.Conclusion The mechanism of Wuzi Yanzong pill in improving heat stress resistance of sertoli cells may involve maintenance of tight junctions between sertoli cells, inhibition of sertoli cells apoptosis and promotion of cell differentiation and maturation.
