Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2006;0(11):-
In the teaching of Medical Microbiology,the writers use problem based learning pattern and traditional teaching methods together to complement each other according to the characteristics of students. They improve the quality of teachers constantly,reform the old methods of teaching and evaluation system in order to improve the students'clinical work ability and train their innovation thoughts.
2.Exploration in teaching stuff construction of bilingual teaching in internal medicine
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2011;10(8):951-953
Bilingual teaching is an important method to train international medical students.While the current bottleneck problem is the shortage of teachers during the exploration and practice in bilingual teaching. Proceeding from requirements and current situation of bilingual teachers, the following approaches should be taken to strengthen the teaching stuff construction of bilingual teaching: demonstration teaching, language training infiltrated in clinic job, guiding foreign students, preparing bilingual teaching materials and professional team building.

Objective In this study,we determined whether or not cancer-reactive cytotoxic T-lymphocytes(CTLs)could be induced from peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs)of colon cancer patients by in vitro stimulation with a PAP peptide.Methods The PBMCs of HLA-A24+ colon cancer patients and healthy donors were stimulated with a PAP213-221 peptide in vitro.The PAP-specific IFN-? was measured by ELISA.The cytotoxicity of CTLs were examined by 51Cr release assay.Results IFN-? produced by the PBMCs of 3 of 5 colon cancer patients and 1 of 8 healthy donors after incubation with PAP213-221 peptide pulsed C1R-A2402 cells were significantly higher then that after incubation with HIV peptide pulsed C1R-A2402 cells(P
8.Expression of DNA methyltransferases 1,3a,and 3b in retinoblastoma
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2012;(6):555-559
Objective To observe the expressions of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) 1,3a and 3b in retinoblastoma (RB).Methods Sixty-two RB samples and six normal retinas were studied,including 17 poorly differentiated and 45 well differentiated samples; 16 invasive and 46 non-invasive samples.The expressions of DNMT1,3a,and 3b,and Ki-67 were detected using immunohistochemical analysis.Brown staining of nuclei was considered to represent the positive stain for DNMT1,3a and 3b,and ki-67,blue staining as negative.The level of high expression of nuclear staining was,positive cells in DNMT1≥65 %,in DNMT3a≥60% and in DNMT3b≥40%.The correlations of DNMT1,3a and 3b expression in RB samples,and MIB-1 labeling index were analyzed.Results Viewed under the light microscope,negative expressions of DNMT1,3a and 3b were demonstrated in normal retinas,however,positive expression was observed in RB samples,with 100% in DNMT1,98% in DNMT3a and 92% in DNMT3b.Comparing well differentiated RB samples with poorly differentiated samples,significant differences were found in high expression of DNMT1 (x2 =12.57,P<0.05) and DNMT3a (x2 =10.54,P<0.05) ; also in the positive cells of DNMT1 (U=179,P<0.05) and DNMT3a (U=198,P<0.05).No significant difference was found comparing high expression (x2=1.5,P>0.05) and positive cells (U=307,P>0.05) of DNMT3b.When comparing invasive tumor tissues with non-invasive tumors,significant differences were shown between high expression (x2 =4.72,P<0.05) and positive cells comparing DNMT1 (U=236,P<0.05).No significant difference was shown in high expression (x2=3.53,0.84; P>0.05) in DNMT3a and DNMT3b,or in comparison with positive cells (U=338,257; P>0.05).The expression of DNMTs was positively correlated with the MIB-1 labeling index in RB tissues (R2=0.554,0.376,0.219; P<0.05).Conclusion There are high expressions of DNMT1,3a,and 3b in RB.
9.The expression and relationship of high-mobility group A, MIB labeling index and let-7 in retinoblastoma
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2012;(6):560-564
Objective To observe the expression and relationship of high-mobility group A(HMGA) 1,HMGA2,MIB-1 labeling index (LI) and let-7 in retinoblastoma (RB).Methods Forty-four RB samples were studied,including 11 poorly differentiated samples,33 well-differentiated samples; eight invasive and 36 non-invasive samples.The expression of HMGA1,HMGA2 and MIB-1 LI in RB were analyzed by immunohistochemitry.The HMGA1,HMGA2 were scored on a scale of 0 to high expression.0: no expression ; low: 1% - 10 % ; medium: 11 % - 50 % ; high: >50 %.The MIB LI were scored on a scale of 0to high expression.O: no expression;low: 1% - 40%;high: > 40%.Semiquantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to assay the let-7 expression level: ≥ 80% showed no significantly decreased expression; 60% - 79% showed medium decrease in expression; < 60% highly decreased in expression.Results In 44 RB samples,there were 14 cases with no HMGA1 expression (32%),11 cases with low expression (25%),10 cases with medium expression (23%),and nine cases with high expression (20%).Expression level of HMGA1 was significantly higher in poorly differentiated RB than in well-differentiated RB (x2 =11.3,P<0.01) ; however,no statistically significant difference was found between invasive tumors and noninvasive tumors (x2 -5.9,P>0.05).There were 11 cases with no HMGA2 expression (25%),11 cases with low expression-(25%),nine cases with medium expression (20%),and 13 cases with high expression (30%).Expression level of HMGA2 was significantly higher in poorly differentiated and invasive RB than in well differentiated and noninvasive RB respectively (x2=20.9,8.7; P<0.05).There were 4 cases with no MIB-1 LI expression (9%),18 cases with low expression (41%),and 22 cases with high expression (50%).Expression level of MIB1 LI was significantly higher in poorly differentiated RB than in well-differentiated RB (t=5.2,P<0.05).Higher expression of MIB-1 LI was found in invasive tumors than in noninvasive tumors,with no significant difference (t=-1.1,P>0.05).Twenty seven cases had no significantly decreased expression of let-7 (61%).There were eight cases with medium decreased expression (18%) and nine cases with highly decreased expression (21%).Correlation analyses revealed that MIB1 LI expression significantly correlated with HMGA1and HMGA2 proteins (r=0.327,0.602; P<0.05).A significantly inverse correlation existed between let-7 expression and HMGA1,HMGA2 proteins and MIB-1LI respectively (r=-0.247,-0.310,-0.392; P<0.05).Conclusions Overexpression of HMGA1,HMGA2 and MIB-1 LI and down regulation of let-7 were demonstrated in RB.Supplying let-7 to RB cells can possibly inhibit HMGA1 and HMGA2 expression.

Urothelial carcinoma associated 1 (UCA1) is a kind of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA),which has no capacities for coding proteins.UCA1 over-expresses in diverse tumors,and plays a pivotal role in initiation and progression of tumors.Researches indicate that UCA1 may function as an oncogene in gastrointestinal tumors,such as gastric cancer,colorectal cancer and hepatocellular cancer,and participate in regulating cell proliferation,metastasis and chemo-resistance.
