In order to prevent the teaching reform of organ system curriculum from fall of teaching quality, the teaching effect of organ system curriculum and subject curriculum system in teaching the basic knowledge of pathophysiology was compared. In organ system curriculum teaching, there was no difference between the grades of students in Batch 2011 and Batch 2012 who conformed to the teaching principle of "gradual improvement" and those of the students taught with subject curriculum system. On the contrary, the students of Batch 2013 and Batch 2014 with insufficient curriculum content integration had a decreasing trend or a significant reduction in the teaching effect of organ system curriculum compared with that of subject curriculum system. After the supplementary for curriculum knowledge was made, the teaching effect of the organ system was significantly improved, which was better than that of the subject curriculum system. In conclusion, we have summarized and reflected on the effectiveness of the teaching reform of organ system curriculum, once again proved that basic medical teaching must also follow the inherent law of medical education, which is the teaching principle of "gradual improvement."

In order to enhance the specificity of TNF-α monoclonal antibody to inflamed site, a bispecific antibody BsDb that targets TNF-α and the extra-domain B (ED-B) of fibronectin (FN) was constructed by covalently linking the anti-TNF-α single chain Fv antibody (TNF-scFv) and the anti-ED-B scFv L19 via a flexible peptide linker deriving from human serum albumin (HSA). ED-B is an antigen specifically expressed at the inflamed site. BsDb is expressed in E. coli, identified by immunoblot, and purified with affinity chromatography. This was followed by further examination of its bioactivities and pharmacokinetics. We demonstrated that BsDb retained the immunoreactivity of its original antibodies as it could simultaneously bind to TNF-α and ED-B and neutralize the biological action of TNF-α. In the collagen-induced arthritis mice model, BsDb selectively accumulate in the inflamed joint with a maximal uptake of (12.2 ± 1.50)% ID/g in a single inflamed paw and retain in the inflamed paw for at least 72 h. In contrast, BsDb showed a short serum half-life of (0.50 ± 0.05) h and a rapid clearance from normal tissues. The findings reported herein indicate that BsDb has good specificity to the inflamed site and low toxicity to normal tissues. BsDb is therefore likely to have greater clinical applications in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases. This laid a stable basis for its preclinical study.
