Objective This article made an exploration on the feasibility of combined applica-tion of TBL with LBL in immunology experiment teaching, and analyzed teaching effectiveness of such combined model in order to find a new way of teaching reformation. Methods 2012 grade biophar-maceutical technology students were chosen in this research, one class as the experimental group(n=42), the other one as control group(n=42). In the experimental group, students were taught on a TBL+LBL combination model, while in the control group, students were taught only on LBL model. After the course was finished, effects of teaching were evaluated by questionnaire survey and compre-hensive ability evaluation. SPSS 18.0 software was used to do statistical analysis. Quantitative data and qualitative data were analyzed by t test and chi-square test respectively. P<0.05 means that difference is statistically significant. Results Above 90.0% of students in experiment group approved that TBL+LBL can improve the interest in learning , can enhance sense of teamwork , can help acquiring of knowledge and improving of individual comprehensive ability. Average score of comprehensive ability evaluation and percentage of students achieving good score in experimental group were higher than those in control group, the differences were statistically significant(t=2.020, P=0.049; χ2=6.372, P=0.012). Conclusion The TBL+LBL combination model can improve immunology experiment teach-ing quality, and is worth publicizing.

Objective To evaluate the effects of desamethasone in pregnancy on fetal pituitary-adrenal functions.Methods From May 2003 to November 2003 24 cases of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregancy(ICP) in the third trimester were treated with dexamethasone.The levels of ACTH and cortisone in the umbilical blood were detected after delivery.The pregnant Wistar rats were intramuscularly injected of dexamethasone(1 mg?kg-1?d-1) from the pregnancy day 15 for 5 days as group B,while the rats in group A received no dexamethasone as control group.The levels of ACTH and cortisone of the rat fetus as well as the ACTH in fetal pituitary gland by immunohistochemistry were examined.Results The ACTH level in the umbilical blood of the fetus increased and the cortisone level decreased as compared to that of the control group.Treatment with desamethasone to pregnant rats resulted in enhanced expression of ACTH,increased serum ACTH concentration,and decreased concentration of cortisol in the rat fetal pituitary gland.Conclusion Treatment with dexamethasone in pregnancy causes some impact on the adrenal gland of the newborn rats in the near future.

Point of care testing (POCT) is a laboratory-medicine discipline that is evolving rapidly in analytical scope and clinical application.Medical-laboratory tests can be performed at the point of care,shortening the time caused by sample transportation and preparation.At present,POCT contains many items,ranging from blood-glucose measurement to coagulation assays.But,errors in results in POCT practical applications are usually caused by personnel and methodology.Management of POCT detection within the hospital should be strengthened to ensure the quality of POCT in order to provide better services for patients.

Objective To explore the function of unfolded protein response(UPR) in the differentiation of neural cells. Methods In this study, all trans retinoic acid was used to induce the mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells to differentate, immunocytochemistry and RT PCR were adopted to detect the expression of neural specific markers. With this differentiation system derived from ES cells, the expression of UPR molecules was assayed by RT PCR and Western blot respectively. Results Large amount of cells expressing neural tissue specific markers were obtained. With the differentiation of the cells, the expressions of Irel ? declined in different degree in both RA treated and untreated cells, the expression level was lower in RA untreated cells than that in RA treated cells. The expression of Grp78 was up regulated in RA induced cells, however, no increase of the expression of Grp78 could be detected in RA untreated cells.Conclusion RA induced differentiation of ES cells could be used as the neural differentiation model. The expressions of UPR molecules were associated with expressions of neural tissue specific marker molecules, which suggested that UPR signaling might play a role in neural cell differentiation. [

Conclusion:The method can well remove the noise of the plethysmography wave and retains the effective information of plethysmography wave effectively.

Malignant tumors are the most common lethal diseases in China.Because of complexity of etiology and pathogenesis , and the lack of specific markers for early diagnosis , delayed diagnosis and treatment of cancer , the fatality rate is high.With the development of basic research , more and more early specific markers were found , but the current detection mostly depend on the professional laboratories , time-consuming , high price and have a number of inconveniences to patients on time and money.Meanwhile , it′s difficult to extend to zoon of medicine resources deficient.Recently, point-of-care testing (POCT) has been rapidly developed , because of its portability , getting results quickly , can be operated in basic medical units and economic backward areas , so it′s benefit to cancer screening in human.By the application in tumor markers, POCT can be done for the cancer early detection , early diagnosis and early treatment , so then cuts the death rate.

Objective To observe the effect of combination of Tju103 and CTLA4-Ig on engraftment, graft versus host disease (GVHD), graft versus leukemia (GVL) and anti-infection post major histocompatibility complex (MHC) haploidentical bone marrow transplantation in mice in order to seek an effective access to transplantation with less GVHD and more potential GVL and anti-infection.Methods In the presence of the recipient's antigen (normal CB6F1, H-2 bd) as a stimulus for induction of specific immune tolerance, T cells from the MHC haploidentical donors (C57BL/6, H-2 b) were first in vitro cultured with Tju103 and CTLA4-Ig, then were transfused with the donors' bone marrow cells into the preconditioned recipients. At last, the effect of combination of Tju103 and CTLA4-Ig on hematopoietic rebuilding, GVHD, GVL and anti-infection was observed in compared with CsA, Tju103 and CTLA4-Ig as controls.Results The only irradiated group (group A): All the mice (10 mice) died of failure of hematopoiesis within 11 days post irradiation, of which most (8 mice) died within 4～7 days post transplantation. The CTX-treated leukemia group (group B): All the mice (10 mice) died of leukemia within 16～23 days post leukemia cells infusion (11～18 days post BMT). CTX treatment prolonged the survival time. The only transplanted group (group C): The mice began to die from day 16 post transplantation, and all (10 mice) died of GVHD within 3 weeks. The CsA prophylaxis group (group D): 4 mice died within 8～22 days after transplantation, of which one died of leukemia, two died of infection and one died of GVHD, and the remaining 6 survived over 30 days post transplantation. The Tju103 treated group (group E): 4 mice died within 9～26 days post transplantation, of which one died of leukemia, one died of infection and two died of GVHD, and the remaining 6 mice survived over 30 days post transplantation. The CTLA4-Ig treated group (group F): 3 mice died within 14～23 days after transplantation, of which one died of infection and two died of GVHD, and the remaining 7 survived over 30 days post transplantation. The Tju103/CTLA4-Ig treated group (group G): one died of GVHD on day 19 after transplantation, and the remaining 9 mice survived over 30 days post transplantation. Conclusions CsA, Tju103 or CTLA4-Ig alone could prolong survival time and reduce incidence and degree of GVHD severity. But CTLA4-Ig could spare much ability of GVL and anti-infection while Tju103, just like CsA, couldn't. Combination of both was the most favorable way for transplantation with the most remarkable efficiency on prolongation of survival time and reduction of GVHD.
