Objective To express and purify the human scFv antibody,SA3,against the hepatoma fused to enhanced green fluorecsent protein,and to observe the targeted capacity of fusion protein EGFP-SA3 in vivo.Methods SA3 and EGFP genes were cloned into plasmid pET-25b( + )to construct the recombinant plasmid EGFP-SA3/pET-25b ( + ),followed by DNA sequencing.Then it was transformed into E.coli BL21 ( DE3 ) and induced for fusion expression of EGFP-SA3with IPTG.The expressed fusion protein EGFP-SA3 was purified and detected with SDS-PAGE.HepG2 cells were incubated with the fusion protein EGFP-SA3 in vitro,and the binding bioactivity was observed under the fluorecsent microscope.Further more,we injected the EGFP-SA3 by caudal vein into nude mice planted by hepatoma and observed the whole body fluorescence image of EGFP.Results SA3 and EGFP genes were successfully cloned into pET-25b( + ),which was confirmed by restriction enzyme Nco I-Xho I or Nco I-Eco RI.A band migrated at the position 750 bp,same to EGFP gene,emerged when recombinant plasmid was digested by restriction enzyme Nco I-Eco RI.Similarly,a band,about 1 500 bp,emerged when digested by Nco I-Xho I.The open-reading frame was confirmed by DNA sequencing.Fusion protein EGFP-SA3 was expressed as inclusion body.After purification and refolding,the result of immunofluorecsence detection verified that EGFP-SA3could specifically bind to HepG2 cells and maximum tumor penetration was at 24 h after the injection.Conclusion The purified fusion protein EGFP-SA3 has strong binding capacity to HepG2cells,indicating the scFv SA3 has a potential value as a targeting molecule for diagnosis and targeted therapy for liver cancer.

Objective To clone the mature peptide gene of seo, construct two kinds of prokaryotic fusion expression vector, obtain recombinant staphylococcal enterotoxin O(SEO) and evaluate its biological activity. Methods The seo gene was amplified from ZNZ2-3 strain of Staphylococcus xylosus by designed primers and it was cloned into fusion vector pGEX-6P-1 and pET28a. The soluble recombinant protein(GST-SEO) was expressed in E. coli BL21 host cells, the purified GST-SEO was obtained by a single step of affini-ty chromatography using Glutathinione Sepharose 4B colume. Another fusion protein(P28-SEO) with his-tag was expressed in E. coli BL21 ( DE3), the purified P28-SEO protein was harvested by nickel chelate affinity chromatography method. The antigenicity of recombinant SEO was tested by Western blot. The stimulating effects of recombinant SEO on mouse lymphocytes was tested by MTT. The activity of Caspase 3 and the ap-optosis of DNA ladder were tested. Results The nucleotide sequence of the cloned seo gene was the same as that of reported in GenBank. The soluble recombinant protein GST-SEO was expressed at 25% expression level, and P28-SEO was 22%. The Western blot by GST-SEO-positive sera demonstrated that the recombi-nant SEO had good immunogenicity. The MTY assay of the enterotoxin activity showed that low dose of re-combinant SEO stimulated the proliferation of mice spleen lymphocytes, higher doses will lead to apoptosis. Conclusion Two of the recombinant SEO still have superantigen activity, and can lead to apoptosis of mice splenocytes.

Objective To investigate the effects of waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) on the formation of carotid plaque in the middle-aged and elderly people.Methods A total of five thousand and ninety-nine participants who have taken physical examination in Tangshan Kailuan Company from June 2010 to October 2011(above 40 years old,no previous history of ischemic stroke,transient ischemic attack,myocardial infarction) were enrolled in this study.Questionnaire survey,blood biochemical and carotid artery ultrasound examination were used to examine the subjects.According to WHR,quartile division was used to divide the subjects into four groups.The detection rates of carotid plaque among the 4 groups were compared.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors effecting carotid artery plaques.Results (1) The detection rate of carotid artery plaque increased with the increase of WHR,the rates of the first,second,third and fourth group were 20.7% (571/2 753),21.9% (604/2 753),27.5% (758/2 753) and 29.8% (820/2 753) respectively.The difference was statistically significant(P=0.000).(2) Logistic regression model was used to analyze multiple factors affecting the detection rate of carotid plaque.After the correction of other factors,compared with the first group,the carotid artery plaque detection rate in the second,third,fourth group were all increased,the OR values were 1.23(95%CI:1.10~1.54),1.65(95%CI:1.52~2.13),1.67(95%CI:1.54~2.17),respectively.Conclusion The increased WHR in the middle-aged and elderly population may increase the risk of carotid plaque formation.

Objective: To understand the mortality and influencing factors on injecting drug users (IDUs) with HIV/AIDS, in Guizhou province, 1996-2015. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on IDUs with HIV/AIDS that were reported through national comprehensive HIV/AIDS information system, in Guizhou province during 1996-2015. Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors on the mortality of HIV/AIDS. Results: A total of 3 958 cases of IDUs with HIV/AIDS were recruited in this study, with all-cause mortality rate of 44.01% (1 742/3 958) and total mortality rate of 7.80/100 person-years, respectively. The median survival time between diagnosis and death was 8.08 years. Mortality rate was 3.57/100 person-years in the group receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART). The mortality appeared to be 4.08/100 person-years in the group who were on methadone maintenance treatment (MMT). Data from the multiple regression analysis indicated that factors of gender, ethnicity, age when HIV/AIDS diagnosis was made, CD₄⁺T lymphocyte (CD₄) count at the first testing, ART and MMT were significantly associated with deaths among these people. The risk of death in females was 0.82 times (95%CI: 0.69-0.98) higher than that in males. The risk of deaths among the ethnic minority subjects was 1.39 times (95%CI: 1.21-1.60) higher than that of the Hans. The risk of death appeared to be 2.44 times higher (95%CI: 1.07-5.56) in the over-50-year of age group than in the <20 year-old group, when HIV/AIDS was diagnosed for the first time. The risk of death in CD₄ ≥500/μl group in the first time was 0.27 times (95%CI: 0.22-0.32) more than CD₄ <200/μl group in the firs time. The risk of death in cases who were treated with ART or MMT was 2.83 times (95%CI: 2.45-3.26) and 1.35 times (95%CI: 1.15-1.59) higher than those who did not receive any treatment, respectively. Conclusion Higher risks on death seemed to be related to the following factors: being male, older age at the time of diagnosis, lower CD₄ at diagnosis, not on ART or MMT among the IDUs with HIV/AIDS in Guizhou province, between 1996-2015.
