Rhizobium leguminosarum biov.trifolii H954 has been fermented for eight days on the GMS medium.Culture supernatant is extracted by ethanol precipitation,sample is purified by Sephadex G\|50,Sephadex G\|10 and DEAE\|Cellulose chromatoraphy.Gas chromatography(GC), 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy(NMR)and mass spectrometry(MS) analysis indicated that the sample is cyclic,neutral glucan,and composes of glucose linked solely by 1→2 glucosidic bonds.Cyclic glucan has degrees of polymerization ranging form 17 to 22,with a degree of ploymerization of 19 as the major glucan cycles.

To prepare a soluble human extracellular III domain of Flt1 and analyze its biological activity. The gene encoding extracellular domain III of Flt-1 was cloned into the expression vector pAZY by RT-PCR from human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC), and induced to express in Escherichia coli by low phosphoric medium, the product was purified by E-tag affinity chromatography. SDS-PAGE and Western blotting analysis showed that Flt-1 gene domain III gene was expressed in E. coli and the yield of the soluble fusion protein was about 1.10 mg/L. Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay (ELISA) revealed that the Flt-1 domain III was able to bind to VEGF165 dose-dependently. Monolayer denudation assay and Transwell assay showed that the fusion protein could inhibit HUVECs migration induced by conditional medium with 50 ng/mL VEGF165 and 100 ng/mL bFGF. In conclusion, Flt-1 gene domain III gene has been successfully cloned and expressed in E. coli, which will be useful in both the research on the function of Flt-1 gene domain III and preparation of anti-Flt-1 monoclonal antibody in the future.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of comprehensive intervention on the incidence of lactation galactostasis in communities from the perspective of preventive medicine, so as to prevent the occurrence of the mammary ducts obstruction disease. MethodsA total of 400 women in the early stage of pregnancy were selected from four communities. Those in two communities were set up as the intervention group. Comprehensive intervention for the prevention and treatment of mammary ducts obstruction disease during pregnancy and "Six-step recanalization manual therapy" practical guidance were conducted on the intervention group. The pregnant women from the other two communities were the control group, who received no intervention or guidance training. The two groups were followed up at 1 month, 3 months and 5 months postpartum, and the occurrence of mammary ducts obstruction disease was investigated and interventions were carried out. ResultsThe incidence of galactostasis in the intervention group was 26.0%, 10.6% and 5.1%, respectively at 1, 3 and 5 months after delivery, and the incidence of galactostasis in the control group was 38.0%, 22.2% and 8.3%, respectively. The incidence of galactostasis at 1 month and3 months after delivery was statistically different (P<0.05), while the incidence of galactostasis 5 months after delivery was not statistically different (P>0.05). The protection rates of comprehensive intervention on galactostasis were 31.58%, 52.25% and 38.55%, respectively. ConclusionPublicity and education work of prevention and control of the mammary ducts obstruction disease and "Six-step recanalization manual therapy" practical guidance can effectively reduce the occurrence of plugged mammary ducts, and therefore should be promoted.
