BACKGROUND:In the present quality control file or technique standards of in vitro fertilization medium, the indicators of the component contents and detection methods have not been clearly defined. To ensure the safety and effectiveness of these products, we should establish the quality standards as early as possible. OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for determining the three main bioactive constituents of in vitro fertilizationmedium including glucose, lactic acid sodium salt, pyruvic acid sodium salt by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometric method (UHPLC-MSMS), and to analyze the content of each constituent. METHODS:The UHPLC-MSMS was used, and UHPLC separation was performed on a SUPELCO Discovery HS F5-3 column (15 cm × 2.1 mm, 3μm) in a gradient elute mode with acetonitrile and water (both containing 0.1%formic acid) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.35 mL/min. The column temperature was 40℃. Mass spectrometry detection was performed with multi-reaction monitoring mode using negative electro spray ionization. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The linearity was achieved in the range of 0.1-10μg/mL (r=0.999 8) for glucose, 0.05-5μg/mL (r=0.999 4) for lactic acid sodium salt, and 0.1-10μg/mL (r=0.999 4) for pyruvic acid sodium salt. The recoveries were 96.4%-98.1%with relative standard deviation less than 2.8%. To conclude, the UHPLC-MSMS method is sensitive, rapid, accurate and specific, thus providing a basis for the quality standard study of in vitro fertilization medium.

Objective To develop an efficient recombinant expression system of alanine aminotransferase ( ALT ) in order to build the foundation for the preparation of feedstock related ALT reference materials.Methods A new human ALT gene was synthesized by optimizing the codons of the nucleic acid sequence encoding human ALT using bioinformatic tools, and then it was cloned into pRSF-Duet expression vector.The recombinant plasmid pRSF-Duet-ALT was transformed into E.coli BL21 and the target protein expression was induced by 2 mmol/L isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside ( IPTG ) .The expression condition for soluble protein was optimized by changing the inducer concentration, shaking speed and induction temperature. The soluble protein was purified by nickel ion affinity chromatography and dextran molecular sieve chromatography, and identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gelelectrophoresis( SDS-PAGE) and Western blot analysis.The activity and stability of recombinant proteins in serum matrix under different storage conditions were detected.Results The usage frequency in E.coli of ALT codons was more than 10%after codon optimization.The expressions of soluble proteins were increased by optimizing the induced expression conditions, including a final concentration of 2 mmol/L of IPTG, and continued incubation with shaking at 150 rpm for 8 h at 25℃.The purified protein was identified as ALT by SDS-PAGE and Western blot with ALT activities of up to 80 000 U/L.Recombinant ALT could be stable for 2-8 d at 2-8 ℃or 25 ℃with a relative standard deviation of less than 5%.Conclusions An efficient recombinant expression system of ALT was developed successfully by codons optimization.The obtained recombinant protein could achieve the requirements of reference material feedstock.

BACKGROUND:Tissue engineering scaffolds can create proper nerve regeneration microenvironment, enrich nutritional factors for nerve regeneration and promote axonal growth. OBJECTIVE:To review the progress of tissue engineering scaffolds in nerve repair in recent years. METHODS:A computer-based retrieval was performed to search ful-text articles addressing tissue engineering scaffolds used to repair nerve damage published from 2009 to 2014 in PubMed databases using the keywords of “nerve regeneration, prostheses and implants” as wel as articles published from 2004 to 2014 in CNKI database using the keywords of “nerve repair, material” in Chinese. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Currently, scaffold materials for nerve damage mainly include natural materials, naturaly derived materials, synthetic materials and composites, al of which have their own advantages and disadvantages. By chemical crosslinkers or chemical modification, the naturaly derived polymer can be combined with other natural or synthetic composite materials, to improve their physicochemical and biological properties, i.e., the composite scaffolds have better effects than single materials in nerve regeneration. Therefore the current research focus is composite materials. In clinical research, colagen scaffold for nerve repair has entered the clinical research stage.

Background and purpose:The most clearly recognized benefit of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is that it can increase the proportion of patients who can be treated with breast-conserving therapy (BCT). However, the shrinkage modes of the primary breast tumor after NAC have been conifrmed as a predictor of BCT rate and prognosis. This study is to evaluate the accuracy of MRI predicting the shrinkage mode of the primary breast tumor after NAC with three-dimensional reconstruction technique.Methods:Sixty-one women with pathologically proven solitary invasive ductal carcinoma (ⅡA-ⅢC) were recruited. Breast specimens were prepared with PMSS, and residual tumors were microscopically outlined, scanned and registered by PHOTOSHOP software. The 3D model of residual tumors was reconstructed with 3D-DOCTOR software based on pathology and MRI imaging characteristics to evaluate the shrinkage mode. We devided the pathological shrinkage modes into surgical pCR (no residual tumors), solitary lesions without surrounding lesions, multinodular lesions, solitary lesions with adjacent spotty lesions and diffuse lesions. Further, the clinical-pathological shrinkage modes were divided into 2 categories: distinct shrinkage mode (DSM, the longest diameter of the pathological residual tumors was less than 50% and ≤2 cm in comparison with the primary tumor before NAC) and non-distinct shrinkage mode (NDSM, the longest diameter of the pathological residual tumors was more than 50% and/or >2 cm in comparison with the primary tumor before NAC).Results:The surgical pCR, solitary lesions without surrounding lesions, multinodular lesions, solitary lesions with adjacent spotty lesions and diffuse lesions were observed in 23, 17, 5, 9, 7 and 18, 3, 13, 20, 7 patients by MRI and pathology, respectively (P=0.001). The accuracy, sensitivity and speciifcity of MRI for predicting pathological shrinkage modes were 86.2%, 65.6% and 91.4%, respectively. The DSM was observed in 36 (59.0%) patients by pathology, and 38 (62.3%) patients by MRI. Two methods had a high consistency in clinical-pathological shrinkage modes (κ=0.863,P=0.000). The accuracy, sensitivity and speciifcity of MRI for predicting clinical-pathological shrinkage modes were 91.0%, 64.0% and 94.8%, respectively. There was not a statistic difference in prediction between DSM and NDSM by MRI (P>0.05). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed an AUC of 0.928 (P=0.000) for MRI to predict the clinical-pathological shrinkage mode.Conclusion:Three-dimensional MRI reconstruction after NAC could simulate and predict spatial location of residual tumors, and can be helpful in selecting patients who received BCT after NAC with tumor downstaging.

BACKGROUND:The blastula culture medium can assist the development of zygote from the fertilized egg to the blast blastula. The safety and quality of blastula culture medium directly influences the quality of blastula. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of blastula culture medium on the development of mouse embryos. METHODS: In this study, B6D2F1 mice were used. The female mice were superovulated and mated with male B6D2F1 mice. One day later, the zygotes were colected and cultured in the M16 medium to 4-cel stage. Then, 4-cel stage embryos were transferred into the tested blastula culture medium (experimental group). After 5 days of culture, the forming rate of blastula was examined. Meanwhile, the M16 medium containing endotoxin was used to culture 1-cel mouse zygote (positive control group). The M16 medium with no embryo toxicity was used to culture 1-cel zygote (negative control group). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The formation rate of blastula was 0 in the positive group, 87.1% in the negative control group, and 87.3% in the experimental group. From the results, the tested blastula culture medium could assist the 1-cel zygote growing to the stage of blastula, and the formation rate of blastula was above 80%. The tested blastula culture medium had no toxicity to the mouse embryo.

Medical device test is a very important step of medical device registration processes and is also a procedure to confirm whether the medical devices comply with applicable standards. The standardization system is imperfect yet in China due to the complexity of medical devices and the specialty of medical device industry. In this circumstance, the medical device standard is not only the important criteria for the medical devices registration, but also an important practical procedure of the medical device registration. This paper reviews the existing questions and also gives some comments and suggestions on the medical device standardization system from the view point of medical device test.

Objective To explore the clinical variables associated with the shrinkage modes of primary breast tumor in women after neoadj uvant chemotherapy (NAC ), and to develop a nomogram for predicting non-concentric shrinkage mode(NCSM).Methods Sixty-one women with pathologically proven solitary invasive ductal carcinoma (ⅡA-ⅢC)were recruited. Breast specimen was prepared with PMSS, and residual tumors were microscopically outlined,scanned and registered by Photoshop CS 5 software.The 3D model of residual tumors was reconstructed with 3D-DOCTOR 4.0 software to evaluate the shrinkage mode.17 factors such as age and body mass index and menopausal status were chosen as independent variables,and the clinic-pathologic shrinkage mode was considered as dependent variable. A Logistic regression model was used to construct the nomogram. Results Primary tumor stage,lymph node down-staging, PR and mammographic malignant calcification before NAC were independent predictors of clinic-pathologic shrinkage mode (β:1.538,OR:4.656,95%CI:1.414-15.328,P=0.011;β:1.555,OR:4.735, 95%CI:1.082-20.722,P=0.039;β:-1.707, OR:0.181, 95%CI:0.044-0.741,P = 0.017;β:- 1.405, OR:3.808, 95% CI:0.06 - 0.998,P = 0.048, respectively ). The nomogram predicting the risk of NCSM showed a good concordance index(0.869),and its conformity of mean absolute error was 0.039. Conclusion Based on the clinicopathological findings of primary breast tumor, a nomogram to predict shrinkage modes after NAC in breast carcinoma patients is constructed.The statistical tool is helpful for individually selecting the patients who can be treated with BCT after NAC.
