The interaction between the antibody and the corresponding target molecule determines the characteristics of immunoassay. In this study, a single chain variable fragment antibody (scFv4C7) derived from the hybridoma strain 4C7 were prepared via genetic engineering technique. The recognition properties of scFv4 C7 was determined and compared to those of the parent monoclonal antibody by indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ic-ELISA). Three dimensional structure of the scFv4C7 was presented by Swiss-Model, and sulfathiazole ( STZ) was docked to the scFv4C7 model to obtain the structure of the binding complex. The results from the ic-ELISA showed that the binding properties of scFv4C7 were comparable with the parent monoclonal antibody and STZ was almost completely buried in a deep binding pocket formed by the heavy chain and light chain of the antibody. The interaction between STZ and scFv4C7 was more closely related to the heavy chain and the complementarity-determining region ( CDR ) H3 loop played more important role than other CDR loops. The study preliminary provided the necessary structural information for the preparation of antibody with broader specificity and higher affinity.

Objective To investigate the expression of endostatin and angiopoietin (Ang)-2 in human ghoma and its significance. Methods The expression of endostatin and Ang-2 were measured by immunohistochemistry and endostatin mBNA by hybridization in situ in 108 cases of brain glioma and 5 cases of normal brain tissues. Results The expression of endostatin (0.0657±0.0038)and Ang-2 (0.0286± 0.0042) were significantly higher in grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ glioma patients than those in grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ ghoma patients (0.0349±0.0048,0.0084±0.0018, respectively) and normal brain tissues (0,0)(P<0.01). The expression of endostatin mRNA were significantly higher in grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ glioma patients (0.0310±0.0041) than that in grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ glioma patients (0.0152±0.0031) and normal brain tissues (0)(P< 0.01 ). Theratio of endo-stalin to Ang-2 was negatively rehted to the grade of glioma (r=-0.810,P <0.01). Conclusion The interaction of endostatin and Ang-2 plays an important role in the invasive growth and malignant development of human glioma, and may be related to the prognosis and the malignant degree of glioma.

Objective:
This study aimed to explore the relationship between childhood sexual abuse (CSA) and sexual orientation among college students, and to explore possible sex difference.
Methods:
By using multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method, 4 034 students were selected from 4 college schools. Self-made questionnaire was used to collect the demographic information, CSA experiences and sexual orientation. Logistic regression models were conducted to examine sex differences in the relationship between different types and timing of CSA and sexual orientation.
Results:
The reporting rates of heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual and asexual orientation of college students were 93.2%, 0.7%, 3.7% and 2.4%, respectively. For males, contact CSA (OR=14.70, 95%CI=5.73-37.72), both contact and noncontact CSA (OR=4.33,95%CI=1.91-9.84) in elementary school or earlier were associated with sexual orientaion. non-contact CSA (OR=4.20, 95%CI=2.21-7.98), both contact and noncontact CSA (OR=3.57, 95%CI=1.65-7.70) in middle school were related to sexual orientation. However, for females, non-contact CSA (OR=1.78, 95%CI=1.02-3.13) and both contact and non-contact CSA (OR=3.13, 95%CI=1.35-7.23) in elementary school or earlier were associated with sexual orientation.
Conclusion
CSA experiences are associated with sexual orientation in sex-specific manner, with significant stronger association among males.

Objective:Objectives The aim of the study is to evaluate the mechanical performance, safety and efficacy of the novel robotic-assistant flexible ureteroscopy system (Ra-fURS) under in vitro and in vivo environments.Methods:Combing with commercial flexible ureteroscopes, the novel Ra-fURS was used for the in vitro test and animal model operation in October 2020. The study included three sections. ①Basic mechanical performance assessment: including endoscope motion control (dual deflection, axial rotation and forward/backward distance), reaction time and fiber regulation. ②Simulated surgery in ex-vivo 3D-printing renal collecting system model: including completion rate and time of calyxes exploration, directional movement and laser fragmentation [gypsum models (0.5×0.5×0.5 cm) were used to stimulate kidney stones]. ③Intrarenal surgeries in animal models (two 5-month female Yorkshire white pigs). In total, 32 surgeries was performed (8 surgeons × 2 pigs × 2 kidneys/pig). In vivo assessments were carried out including: ①consuming time for Ra-fURS installation and offloading; ②completion rate and time of calyxes exploration; ③comfort score (ranging from 0-10) as compared to the manual f-URS, which was corresponding to each Ra-fURS surgery. In simulated surgery and animal surgery sections, 8 surgeons were enrolled in the study (group A 4 without flexible ureteroscopy experience; group B: 4 highly experienced), and results were compared between two groups.Results:Under the Ra-fURS control, the flexible ureteroscope movement in three degrees of freedom (forward / backward: + 11 to -11 cm, axial rotation + 225°to -225°; active duel-flection: + 270°to -270°, as well as the laser fiber regulation + 2.5 to -2.5 cm). In simulated surgery tests, both groups achieved 100% completion rate of calyxes exploration, and there were no statistical differences in the time of the calyxes exploration between group A and group B (116.0±8.0)s vs.(110.3±15.4)s( P>0.05). Time-consumption for laser fragmentation of group B was shorter than that of group A (525.8±58.5)s vs. (780.5±141.2)s( P<0.01). In animal surgery, the installation time of Ra-fURS gradually shortened within the first 7 cases was(234.0±43.0)s, and became comparable in the later 8-32 cases was(149.3±8.0)s. The average uninstall time was (43.9 ±5.9)s and was relatively stable. There were 51 renal calyxes in two pigs. It was higher for the completion rate of calyxes exploration in group B than in group A [(95.5±9.1)% vs. (59.1±9.1)%, P<0.05], and the exploration time was also statistically variant between the two groups group A and group B[(274.8±34.6)s vs.(127.3±18.2)s, P<0.05]. For all the operators, the comfort scores were favorable to the Ra-fURS as compared to the manual f-URS (8.9±0.3 vs. 5.9±1.1, P<0.05). Conclusions:This preliminary study demonstrated that the novel Ra-fURS was capable of controlling flexible ureteroscope to perform retrograde intrarenal surgery and fragmenting stones with laser. Besides, other features, including easy installation, stable performance and comfortable manipulating environment, made it easy to use in clinical application.
