Objective To express the unique gene of herpes simplex virus type 2(HSV-2) gG-2(gG-2T) in E.coli BL21,and study preliminarily the lemologic characteristics of gG-2T protein. Methods We cloned the gene of gG-2T and had gG-2T fusion protein expressed in E.coli BL21,and identified its activity by Western blot and indirect ELISA.Results Glycoprotein G-2T fusion protein could combine with GST polyclonal antibody through gG-2T fusion protein expressed in prokaryotic system and SDS-PAGE had a specific binding strap in 46 ku nearby.The gG-2T fusion protein could react with HSV-2 patients' serum,but not with HSV-1 patients' serum and r-Globulin.Conclusion We obtained gG-2T fusion protein,which can combine with GST polyclonal antibody and react with HSV-2 patients' serum specifically.It will provide an experimental basis for diagnostic kit and vaccine of gG-2 protein target area.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical efficacy and safety of autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation(APBSCT) in the treatment of pemphigus.MethodsTotally,3 patients with pemphigus vulgaris who responsed poorly to 6-month treatment with glucocorticoids or immunosuppressants or experienced aggrevation of disease and developed treatment-related complications,received APBSCT and were followed up for more than 5 years.There were 1 male and 2 females with an average age of 27.3(21-39) years.The mobilization program included cyclophosphamide (CTX) 4 g/m2,recombinant human granulocyte colonystimulating factors(G-CSF) and Rituximab 375 mg/m2,and the preconditioning regimen included intravenous CTX (50 mg/kg per day on days -6,-5,-4,-3),antithymocyte globulin at 2.5 mg/kg per day(on days -3,-2,-1 and 0) and Rituximab (600 mg/d on days 0 and 7).ResultsAll the 3.patients were successfully engrafted.The mean time for peripheral reconstruction:white blood cells 13.3 days (from day 11 to 16),platelet 16.3 days (from day 16 to 17).Monitoring of immunity indices and related antibodies showed no abnormality and the immune system was well reconstructed.No serious complications occurred during the follow up,and the patients' quality of life was obviously improved.ConclusionAPBSCT may be an effective and safe option for the treatment of pemphigus.

Objective To investigate the application effect of swallowing training and ice stimulation combined with electromyography biofeedback therapy in stroke patients with swallowing and coughing .Methods Seventy-nine stroke swallowing and coughing patients treated were collected and were randomly divided into two groups (39 cases in control group,40 cases in observation group ) according to the digital table .The control group was treated with normal swallowing training,while the observation group was treated with ice stimulation combined with electromyography biofeedback therapy.The clinical intervention effect and the VFSS results before and after the intervention were observed and compared .The complications of the two groups were statistically analyzed .Results The total effective rate of the observation group [90.00%(36/40)] was higher than that of the control group [71.79%(28/39),χ2 =4.255,P=0.039].After eight-week intervention,the VFSS score of the observation group was higher than that of the control group(t=12.173,P=0.000);and the incidence rate of complications of the observation group [7.50%(3/40)] was lower than that of the control group [25.64%(10/39),χ2 =4.727,P=0.030].Conclusion Swallowing training and ice stimulation combined with electromyography biofeedback therapy can significantly improve the swallowing function of stroke patients with swallowing and coughing ,and it is safe .
