Objective To construct anti-astrocyte elevated gene-1(AEG-1)single-chain variable antibody (V23)prokaryotic ex-pression vector,and to conduct the protein purification and immunological activity detection.Methods The Primer5 software was applied to design the primers aiming at the gene sequence of the antibody anti-AEG-1 single-chain variable region for constructing the prokaryotic expression plasmid of PRsetC/V23.After the enzyme digestion by the restriction enzyme Pst1 and correct DNA se-quencing,the prokaryotic expression plasmid was led to E.coli BL21 ,the prokaryotic expression engineering strain containing the V23 gene was constructed.After the induction with IPTG,the interest protein was purified by the magnetic beads with the HIS tag,and the content of interest protein was determined by the SDS-PAGE electrophoresis.Western blot and ELISA were adopted to detect the immune activity of the nti-AEG-1 single-chain variable region antibody.Results For the constructed prokaryotic expres-sion plasmid PRsetC/V23,the single enzyme digestion and sequencing analysis displayed that the constructed V23 gene was com-pletely consistent to the designing sequences.After IPTG induction,SDS-PAGE electrophoresis showed an apparent protein band at 31×103 ,the Western blot detection showed a specific AEG-1 response band at 80 ×103 ,the ELISA test showed the positive re-sults.Conclusion The PRsetC/V23 prokaryotic expression plasmid and the V23 prokaryotic expression engineering strain are suc-cessfully constructed,this engineering strain can express anti-AEG-1 single-chain variable region antibody protein,and the protein has good immune activity.

Objective To explore the application of Plan-Do-Check-Act(PDCA)cycle management to continuously im-prove the service quality of outpatient pharmacy and enhance patient satisfaction.Methods To address the problem of long wait-ing time for patients in outpatient pharmacy,we applied PDCA cycle to investigate the factors affecting patients'waiting time in the process of medicine collection,analyze the current situation,determine the expected goals,formulate the service quality im-provement plan of outpatient pharmacy,implement the improvement plan,follow up and supervise,and summarize and analyse the problems regularly until it was solved.Results After implementing the PDCA cycle in the management,the service quality of outpatient pharmacy was improved,the waiting time was significantly shortened and the satisfaction of medical treatment was in-creased.Conclusion The application of PDCA cycle method is effective in improving the service quality of outpatient pharmacy.Therefore,it is recommended for broader implementation.

[摘 要] 目的:探讨干扰B7-H4表达对乳腺癌细胞增殖、凋亡、周期以及相关下游分子表达的影响。方法:利用脂质体转染技术分别将特异性靶向B7-H4的siRNA(siB7-H4)及其阴性对照(siNC)转染至对数生长期的乳腺癌T47D和MCF-7细胞,分别命名为T47D-siB7-H4、T47D-siNC、MCF-7-siB7-H4和MCF-7-siNC组。用qPCR法和WB法验证siRNA干扰效果及其对细胞周期分子cyclin D1表达的影响,CCK-8法和FCM分别检测干扰B7-H4表达对T47D和MCF-7细胞增殖、周期和凋亡的影响,qPCR法检测B7-H4干扰对E2F家族相关转录因子表达的影响。结果:成功构建干扰B7-H4表达的乳腺癌T47D和MCF-7细胞。与T47D-siNC和MCF-7-siNC组相比,T47D-siB7-H4和MCF-7-siB7-H4组细胞中B7-H4 mRNA和蛋白表达水平均显著降低、细胞增殖能力显著降低(均P<0.01),并伴有G1/S期细胞周期阻滞以及cyclin D1表达下调(均P<0.01),但细胞凋亡率差异无统计学意义(均P>0.05)。与T47D-siNC相比,干扰B7-H4后T47D细胞中E2F1、E2F2、E2F7和E2F8 mRNA水平有不同程度的降低(均P<0.01);与MCF-7-siNC相比,干扰B7-H4后MCF-7细胞中E2F1、E2F2、E2F3、E2F7和E2F8 mRNA水平均有不同程度的降低(P<0.05或P<0.01)。结论:干扰乳腺癌细胞B7-H4表达可下调cyclin D1和E2F家族相关转录因子的表达,导致细胞周期阻滞并抑制细胞增殖。
