Synchronous determination of creatine Compounds, adenine nucleotides, hypoxanthine and inosine with reversed—phase HPLC was studied. The distinct separation was achieved within 10 minutes at 210nm using radial—PAK C_(18) Cartridge column under an isocratic elution of 220mmol/L K_2HPO_4/KH_2PO_4, mmol/L TBA and 13% methanol. This method proved to be reproducible, simple and accurate.

Medical biochemistry is a very important basic curricular in medicine teaching.But its theory is abstract,so it is difficult for teachers to teach.On the other hand,the students feel it hard to learn too,because they don't know how these theories are applied.We have applied case-based teaching in medical biochemistry teaching.These methods effectively improve students' enthusiasm to study and to train their scientific thinking in preliminary.Following this way we have explored a new way to elevate teaching qualities and search new teaching model and to further reform present medical biochemistry teaching model.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) derives from the expression of the house-keeping gene G6PD. Recent studies have indicated that G6PD is related to tumor genesis, growth, clinical phenotype, therapy, and prognosis. To elucidate the relationship between G6PD and cancer, three siRNA sequences and one negative control sequence were designed based on the 3' noncoding region of the human G6PD gene. Two complementary single-strand DNA (sense and antisense) were designed and synthesized based on siRNA sequences. The DNA fragments were annealed and ligated to the GFP expression vector pRNAT-U6.2/Lenti. One siRNA with higher interference efficiency than the other two was found after siRNA plasmid transfecting human skin A375 melanoma cells. After lentivirus particle packaging and virus production, the A375 cells were infected, and the single cell clone was acquired and cultured to establish the stable cell strain. Western blotting showed that the endogenous G6PD in the stable A375 cell strain was 0.257 ? 0.074, which was 11.17% of G6PD expression (2.301 ? 0.286) in wild type A375 cells. The final siRNA interference efficiency in this stable cell strain was 88.83%. The G6PD activity of A375-G6PD?驻 was 21.53% of A375-WT. Further study showed that A375-G6PD△ doubling generation time prolonged, and its proliferation was greatly inhibited and the cloning efficiency lowered 25%(P

Background JAK/ signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signal pathway plays a critical role during the sclera remodeling of experimental myopia.As a tyrosine kinase inhibitor,AG490 can inhibit the activation of this pathway.But whether AG490 plays a role in delaying the development of myopia is not completely clear.Objective This study was to investigate the inhibition of AG490 to activation of STAT3 signaling pathway and the sequential arresting effect on the sclera remodeling in form-deprived myopia (FDM) models.Methods Forty guinea pigs were randomly divided into the normal control group,model control group,PBS control group and AG490 treatment group.FDM models were established by the occlusion of the right eyes of guinea pigs for consecutive 4 weeks using translucent goggles in the model control group,PBS control group and AG490 treated group,and 25 μl PBS or AG490 were respectively injected into vitreous since the first day of modeling in two-day interval till the fourth week in the PBS control group and AG490 treated group.Refractive state and axial length were examined with retinoscopy and A-scan ultrasonography before and 4 weeks after experiment.The experimental eyes were extracted in the fourth week,and the expressions of scleral STAT3,p-STAT3,metal matrix proteinase-2 (MMP-2) proteins and STAT3 mRNA,MMP-2 mRNA were detected by immunocytochemstry and semi-quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) respectively.The use and care of experimental animals followed ARVO.Results Compared to the normal control group,the negative refraction power and axial length were significantly increased in the model control group,PBS control group and AG490 treated group,and the axial length in the AG490 treated group was smaller than those in the model control group and PBS control group,showing significant differences among the 4 groups (refraction:F =89.063,P =0.000;axial length:F =96.145,P =0.000).The expressions of STAT3,MMP-2 and p-STAT3 in scleral tissue were weaker in the normal control group.The expressional values (A values) of STAT3,p-STAT3 and M MP-2 were 0.064 ± 0.016,0.019 ± 0.002 and 0.155 ± 0.052 in the AG490 treated group,which were lower than 0.129±0.008,0.071 ±0.021,0.425 ±0.004 of the model control group and 0.130±0.004,0.069±0.002,0.421 ±0.042 of the PBS control group (STAT3:t =4.641,9.364,both at P＜0.01;p-STAT3:t =4.638,4.488,both at P＜ 0.05;MMP-2:t =9.123,9.029,both at P ＜ 0.05),however,these expressions were still higher than those of the normal control group (t =2.674,2.251,2.682,all at P ＜0.05).The expressional levels (A values) of STAT3 mRNA and MMP-2 mRNA in the AG490 treated group were 0.295±0.032 and 0.569±0.019,which were significantly lower than 0.547±0.015 and 0.782±0.051 in the model group as well as 0.544±0.015 and 0.779±0.048 in the PBS control group (STAT3 mRNA:t =10.115,11.703,both at P＜0.01;MMP-2 mRNA:t =9.218,9.494,both at P＜0.01).The expressional levels (A values) of STAT3 mRNA and MMP-2 mRNA in the AG490 treated group were still higher than those in the normal control group (t=2.576,3.565,both at P＜0.05).Conclusions AG490 can ultimately inhibit the development of axial myopia by arresting the activation of STAT3 signaling pathway in the FDM eyes and further regulating the expression of MMP-2 in sclera and delaying the remodeling of sclera.

Objective Set up virtual experimental teaching platform of medical molecular biology, and explore effective operating system of virtual experiment teaching. Methods 400 students of majored in clinical medicine in Kunming Medical University in Grade 2011 were randomly divided into the virtual experiment teaching group (n = 195 ) and the traditional experiment teaching group (n = 205 ). We realized the teaching effect by questionnaire survey, and analyzed the final exam results of two groups statistically. Results The experiment teaching way of virtual experiment has been widely accepted by students, and it could help students to understand and master experiment operations and theory knowledges.No statistical difference was found between two groups on the final exam. Conclusion Virtual experiment technology as a new teaching method has a lot of advantages, but it can't completely replace traditional experiments. We should use both the two kinds of teaching methods reasonally in the medical molecular biology experiment teaching.

Objective To improve the teaching quality of medical genetics. Methods A medi-cal genetics questionnaire survey was designed and conducted among 2012 grade undergraduates of Kunming Medical University. The results of the questionnaire were statistically analyzed by Kruskal-wallis test. Results The students felt that, there were differences in the importance and difficulty of teaching sections (Z=395.818,Z=117.786,P<0.001). The practical abilities were different after learn-ing (Z=139.364,P<0.001). Most of the students had strong demand for clinical practice and genetic counseling, there were differences in the degree of demand in students of different majors (Z=8.432, P=0.038). Conclusion Method of adjusting teaching content and method was proposed and adding clinical practice in the future was recommend to improve the teaching quality .

Objective: To explore two visual acuity standards for examining uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) to define poor vision in lower grade elementary school students, and to compare the difference of screening myopia rates when combined with non cycloplegic auto refraction (NCAR), so as to provide a scientific basis for standardizing UCVA examination methods using CAR as the gold standard of authenticity and reliability. Methods: From March 22nd to April 9th, 2023, a total of 549 first and second grade students aged 7-8 years from a primary school in Hefei City were selected for the study by convenient cluster sampling method. Two methods were employed for UCVA examination:the first method involved charts where the student could not make mistakes in identifying at least half of the characters per line (V1), and the second method used charts with character sizes ranging from 4.0 -4.5, 4.6-5.0 and 5.1-5.3, without allowing 1, 2 and 3 errors per line (V2). While NCAR was performed, then 187 students underwent CAR examination. Paired Wilcoxon rank-sum test and McNemar test were used to compare the differences between V1 and V2 methods in defining poor vision and screening myopia rates. Using CAR as the gold standard, the authenticity and reliability of defining screening myopia rates through the combination of V1 and V2 methods along with NCAR were evaluated. Results: The UCVA examination results for V1 and V2 showed statistically significant differences in both the right eye [5.0(4.9,5.0), 4.9(4.8,5.0)] and the left eye [ 5.0 (4.9,5.0), 4.9(4.8,5.0)] ( Z=-13.95, -13.34, P <0.01). The detection rates of poor vision for the right eye were 43.53% for V1 and 63.21% for V2, and the left eye with 44.08% for V1 and 62.11% for V2, with statistically significant differences ( χ 2= 106.01 , 95.09, P <0.01). When screening myopia rates were assessed for UCNA methods combined with NCAR, the right eye rates were 21.49% for V1 and 24.59% for V2, and the left eye rates were 21.31% for V1 and 23.13% for V2, with statistically significant differences ( χ 2=15.06, 8.10, P <0.01). Using CAR as the gold standard, the detection rates in the right eye and left eye were 16.58 % and 17.11%, respectively. The Youden indices for defining screening myopia in the right eye were 0.80 for V1 and 0.79 for V2, and the left eye with 0.85 for V1 and 0.83 for V2. The agreement rates for the right eye were 91.98 % for V1 and 89.30% for V2, and the left eye with 94.12% for V1 and 91.98% for V2. The Kappa values for the right eye were 0.73 for V1 and 0.67 for V2, and the left eye with 0.81 for V1 and 0.75 for V2. Conclusions Authenticity and reliability of two UCVA examination methods combined with NCAR in defining screening myopia are higher in V1 than V2 methods. It is recommended to unify the visual acuity examination methods by requiring the correct identification of more than half of the total number of visual markers in a row.
