Streptomyces phage ?C31 integrase is a site-specific recombinase and introduce foreign gene to unidirectional recombination.Because of its integration mediated by ?C31 integrase without any cofactors and especially directed integration,it possesses high efficiency and stable expression of foreign gene.These advantages make it an attractive tool for genetic engineering.It has been widely used to transgene integration in mammalians and provides an opportunity to overcome the bottlenecks in the generation of transgenetic animals,such as random integration,low integral rate,low level of expression and so on.The ?C31 integrase will have a wide application in the near future.

Objective To study the pathological characteristic of VX2 hepatic tumor in rabbit and the value of ultrasound in detecting this tumor mode. Methods To establish a model of Rabbit Liver VX2 Tumor with ultrasound- guided implantation of constitution mass and ultrasounds scanning was performed at fourteen days and twentyone days after implantation. After that, all the rabbits were executed and pathological examination was performed. Results Twenty models of Rabbit Liver VX2 Tumor were successfully established. The fourteen days after implantation,18 rabbits were found tumor,tumor diameter 8. 6 ~ 11.8 mm, average diameter ( 10. 15 ± 0. 67) mm; The twenty one days after implantation,20 rabbits were found tumor, tumor diameter 13.2 ~ 18.3 mm, average diameter( 16. 13 ±1.98)mm. Ultrasound showed that the tumor in the rabbit liver was a single spherical or sphere-alike hypoechoic nudes,and there were higher blood flow signals around the nedus. In pathological examination,the tumors were exserted to the liver surface,the cross sections of the tumor were gray,the cells of the tumors were bigger than the normal liver cells,arranged into nests with fibrous tissue. Conclusion In pathological examination, the heteromorphism of VX2 tumor cell was conspicuous. The growth of VX2 hepatoma could be monitored by ultrasound effectively.

Objective To observe the curative effects of the combined therapy of Folic acid,Vitamin(Vit) B6 and Vit B12 in youth stroke associated with hyperhomocysteinemia.Methods 150 youth stroke patients with hyperhomocysteinemia were randomly devided into low dose Folic acid,Vit B6 and Vit B12 treatment group(low dose group);high dose Folic acid,Vit B6 and Vit B12 treatment group(high dose group) and control group,50 cases in each group.Low dose group was taken by the treatments of Folic acid 2.5 mg/d,Vit B6 10 mg/d,Vit B12 0.5 mg/d;high dose group was taken by the treatments of Folic acid 5 mg/d,Vit B6 30 mg/d,Vit B12 1.5 mg/d;control group was not taken by the treatments of Folic acid,Vit B6 and Vit B12.The plasma homocysteine(Hcy)concentration was detected before and after treatment.The level of plasma Hcy 0.05).No obvious side effect was found in the three groups.Conclusions It is effective in the combined therapy of Folic acid,Vit B6 and Vit B12 in youth stroke associated with hyperhomocysteinemia.The effectiv rates are same by the low dose and high dose drug.The therapy is free from side effect.

Objective To assess the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms of FcεRIαgene and atopic dermatitis. Methods Genomic DNA samples were extracted from peripheral blood of 97 patients with atopic dermatitis and 283 normal human controls. The polymorphism at the distal promoter region of FcεRIα gene was determined by PCR-ligase detection reaction assay followed by gene sequencing. Results A G/T polymorphism was observed at position rs61828219 in the promoter region of FcεRIα gene, while all the tested individuals were homozygous for T/T at position rs12135235 and A/A at position rs36233780 in the promoter region of FcεRIα gene. The mutation frequency at position rs61828219 was 1.04% and 2.17% in patients with AD and normal human controls, respectively (both P > 0.05). Conclusions In the Chinese Han population, there is a G/T polymorphism at position rs61828219 in FcεRIα gene promoter region, which is unlikely related to the development of AD; however, no polymorphism is detected at position rs12135235 or rs36233780.

Objective To compare the diagnostic value of the Standardized Bedside Swallowing Assessment (SSA)and the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines(SIC)for bedside dysphagia screening of patients after acute cerebral infarction(ACI). Methods Eighty-six ACI patients within 24 h of stroke onset were enrolled in the study.Within 48 h after hospitalization,swallowing function assessments and dysphagia screenings were carried out with the SSA and SIG,as well as video fluroseopic swallowing studies(VFSSs).The SSA and SIG assessments generated sensitivities,specificities,positive predict values(PPVs),negative predict values(NPVs),positive likelihood ratios (PLRs)and negative likelihood ratios(NLRs).These were compared with the VFSS results. Results The SSA showed a sensitivity of 89.1%,specificity of 75%,PPV of 0.804,NPV of 0.833,PLR of 3.56,NLR of 0.15,and Kappa of 0.648 compared to the VFSS results.The SIG showed a sensitivity of 60.9%,specificity of 82.5%,PPV of 0.800,NPV of 0.647,PLR of 3.44,NLR of 0.47 and Kappa of 0.425 compared to the VFSS.The sensitivity of of the SIG.Both assessments correlated well with the VFSS results. Conclusions Both the SSA and the SIG are elfective in dysphagia screening.The SSA is more sensitive than the SIG and is more suitable for early screening.The SIG is helpful in guiding dysphagia management and evaluating curative effects.

Purpose To evaluate the role of 18F-FDG PET/CT tumor metabolic imaging in the detection of lung cancer lesions,using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves analysis and investigate the diagnostic value of TNR and TLR in lung lesions.Materials and Methods A total of 82 patients who were confirmed with lung space-occupying lesionsby 18F-FDG PET/CT tumor metabolic imaging were retrospectively analyzed.Based on the pathological gold standard,evaluate the diagnostic value of 18F-FDG PET/CT tumor metabolic imaging in lung space-occupying lesions by t-test and ROC curve.Results There was a significant difference of TNR and TLR between benign and malignant lesion (P<0.01).The AUC on ROC curve of TLR ratio was 0.943 in the lung lesions while the TNR was 0.927.The sensitivity,specificity and the accuracy were 86.36%,62.50% and 81.71%,respectively with the TNR cutoff of 6.87.The sensitivity,specificity and the accuracy were 90.91%,68.75% and 86.58%,respectively with the TLR cutoff of 2.86.Conclusion 18F-FDG PET/CT tumor metabolic imaging is useful for differentiating lung space-occupying lesions.But for cases of atypical 18F-FDG uptake,it is suggested to combine with clinical information.
