Objective To investigate the self-assembly and cellular localization patterns of fila-mentous temperature-sensitive protein Z (FtsZ) in Escherichia coli (E.coli) strains by using FtsZP74R, FtsZG77D and FtsZA81R mutants.Methods YFP or His labeled FtsZ proteins and the plasmids of FtsZ mu-tants were constructed by using molecular clone and site-directed mutagenesis methods.The targeted proteins were purified by affinity chromatography.FL37(△ftsZ-Cat) strains were constructed via linear DNA homol-ogous recombination.Living cell imaging was performed to observe the cellular localization patterns of FtsZ protein and its mutants in E.coli strains.The interactions between FtsZ-FtsZ/FtsZ mutants were examined by coi-mmunoprecipitation assay . The polymerization properties of FtsZ mutants were analyzed by light scattering.The activities of GTPase were monitored by using high performance liquid chromatography.Re-sults The P74, G77 and A81 amino acids were respectively replaced by different polar amino acids to change the amphipathicity of the helix within the domain of FtsZ ( 74-82 ) .The YFP-labeled FtsZP74R , FtsZG77D and FtsZA81R mutants failed to assemble into functional Z-ring structure in E.coli strains.The inter-actions between FtsZ protein and its mutants were weakened or completely disappeared.In addition, in vitro experiments showed that P74R, G77D and A81R mutations caused a decrease in the polymerization efficien-cy of FtsZ monomer.The activity of GTPase was significantly decreased in the FtsZA81R mutant. Conclusion The P74, G77 and A81 were critical amino acids in the function and assembly of FtsZ protein in E.coli strains.Moreover, A81 amino acid regulated the lateral interaction of FtsZ monomer and the activity of GTPase.

BACKGROUND:Exercise has a regulatory effect on intestinal flora dysbiosis,which can effectively protect the beneficial flora and improve the intestinal environment.However,the effect of treadmill exercise on the structure and diversity of intestinal microbial community in Parkinson's disease and the specific mechanism are not clear. OBJECTIVE:Using 16S rDNA technique to analyze the effect of treadmill exercise on the structure and diversity of the intestinal flora of rats with Parkinson's disease,and to investigate the mechanism of non-pharmacological treadmill exercise to improve Parkinson's disease. METHODS:Twelve of the 18 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly selected to make animal models of Parkinson's disease using unilateral 2-point nigrostriatal injection of 6-hydroxydopamine.The remaining six rats were used as sham-operation group,which were injected with the same dose of saline containing 0.2%ascorbic acid using the same positioning and injection method.After successful modeling,12 rats with Parkinson's disease were randomly divided into model group and treadmill exercise group(n=6 per group).The treadmill exercise group was subjected to a middle and low intensity tread mill exercise,10 m/min,30 minutes per day,5 days per week for 4 weeks.Fresh feces were collected and stored in liquid nitrogen 24 hour after the last exercise session,and the changes in fecal flora were analyzed by 16S rDNA sequencing technique. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Treadmill exercise significantly improved behavior and nigrostriatal tyrosine hydroxylase-positive cell expression in rats with Parkinson's disease model and alleviated changes in the structure and diversity of the gut microbial community caused by Parkinson's disease,increased the number of operational taxonomic units and modulated Alpha and Beta diversity in rats.At the phylum and genus levels,the abundance ratio of Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes in the model group decreased compared with the sham-operated group,while beneficial bacteria such as Prevotella,Bacteroides,and Clostridium_XlV increased significantly after treadmill exercise.To conclude,treadmill exercise has a significant modulating effect on behavioral abnormalities,toxic damage to dopaminergic neurons and gut microbial imbalance caused by Parkinson's disease,alleviates the symptoms of flora-related diseases,and has a positive effect on the improvement of Parkinson's disease.

In order to enhance the anticoagulant properties of decellularized biological materials as scaffolds for tissue engineering research via heparinized process, the decellularized porcine liver scaffolds were respectively immobilized with heparin through layer-by-layer self-assembly technique (LBL), multi-point attachment (MPA) or end-point attachment (EPA). The effects of heparinization and anticoagulant ability were tested. The results showed that the three different scaffolds had different contents of heparin. All the three kinds of heparinized scaffolds gained better performance of anticoagulant than that of the control scaffold. The thrombin time (TT), prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) of EPA scaffold group were longest in all the groups, and all the three times exceeded the measurement limit of the instrument. In addition, EPA scaffolds group showed the shortest prepared time, the slowest speed for heparin release and the longest recalcification time among all the groups. The decellularized biological materials for tissue engineering acquire the best effect of anticoagulant ability in vitro via EPA heparinized technique.

Objective: To evaluate the degree of psychological distress and analyze the influential factors of cancer patients receiving radiotherapy, aiming to provide theoretical basis for individualized psychological interventions. Methods: A cross-sectional survey of 157 cancer patients treated with radiotherapy in Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University in the previous year was conducted in terms of data collection and mean score of NCCN distress thermometer by using the convenience sampling method. Tumor types included nasopharyngeal cancer, breast cancer and cervical cancer, etc. The influential factors were analyzed by using logistic regression method. Results: The mean score of NCCN distress thermometer in 157 cancer patients was 4.07±0.19. Among them, 87 cases (55.41%) experienced significant psychological distress (NCCN distress thermometer score≥4). The main influential factors of psychological distress consisted of depression, loneliness, fear, appearance changes, urination changes, nausea, poor appetite, eating trouble, diarrhoea, constipation, pain and radiodermatitis. Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that nausea and urination changes were the independent influential factors of psychological distress. Conclusions Over half of cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy present with evident psychological distress. Somatic problems and emotional situations are the main factors of psychological pain. Consequently, it is highly necessary to emphasize the psychological health and actively resolve the somatic and emotional symptoms of cancer patients receiving radiotherapy.

Objective: To preliminarily investigate the difference of position fixation accuracy between polyurethane styrofoam and vacuum negative pressure pad in intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) after radical mastectomy for breast cancer. Methods: Forty breast cancer patients, who received breast-conserving surgery followed by hyper-fractionated IMRT of the whole breast (42.56 Gy for 16 times) in our hospital between 2017 and 2018 were recruited and randomly divided into the polyurethane styrofoam group and vacuum negative pressure pad group. Before IMRT treatment, the anterior and lateral films of patients were taken with kilovoltage digital radiographs (KVDRs) by Varian Trilogy machine-borne OBI KV image verification system. The KVDRs images were matched with the DRR images reconstructed by the planned system to obtain the setup errors in the left and right, head and foot, and ventral and back directions between two groups. Each patient was verified for 10 times to obtain 400 sets of data. The independent sample t-test was adopted to analyze the setup errors between two groups. The external expansion value of graded setup errors from clinical target volume (CTV) and planned target volume (PTV) was calculated. Results: The setup errors in the left and right, head and foot, ventral and back directions between the styrofoam fixation and vacuum pad groups were (1.63±1.29) mm and (1.83 ±1.61) mm (P=0.18), (1.46±1.51) mm and (2.26±2.03) mm (P=0.00), and (1.30±1.35) mm and (1.91±1.67) mm (P=0.00), respectively. The external expansion values of setup errors from CTV to PTV were 2.19 mm, 2.51 mm, 1.57 mm and 2.40 mm, 3.97 mm and 2.63 mm, respectively. Conclusion Both two fixation methods meet the clinical requirements. However, the setup accuracy and reproducibility in the polyurethane styrofoam group are better than those in the vacuum negative pressure pad group.
