Abstract Objective: To construct the Second half of CILP(C2) MBP fusion protein by sub-cloning technology. Methods: Recombinantfusion proteins, which contain the fragments within the C2 region(designated C2F1, C2F2 and C2F3) of the non-porcine nucleotide pyrophos-phohydrolase-homologous region of CILP, were prepared using pMAL-eHis vector. The recombinat genes are induced by different temperatures(22℃,30℃,37℃ ). Results: Expression using pMAL-eHis system can be induced chemically by adding IPTG. 37℃ temperature prmotes in-soluble inclusion-body formation,but 22℃ temperature can not induce the enough expression of recombinant protein. Onl 30℃ temperaturecan induce enough amount of soluble recombinant protein. The characers of fusion proteins that they carried 6 straight histidines, (His)6, at tbeC-terminus of multiple cloning sites for affinity purification were assessed by sodium dodecy1 sulfate-polyacylamide gel electrophoresis(SDS-PAGE) and Western blot. Nucleotide sequences of the insertion genes were confirmed by dideoxy sequencing. Conclusion: C2F1, C2F2,C2F3-MBP fnsion proteins were constructed successfully.These recombinant proteins may provide important roles in the future study on CILP.

Objective To develop a polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR RFLP) method using designed primers for determining the genotype of humen platelet antigens (HPA)5 system. Methods HPA 5 system of 25 healthy blood donors were genotyped using PCR RFLP method. The results obtained by PCR RFLP were compared with those determined by allele specific oligonucleotid hybridization (PCR ASO). Results The results of HPA 5 system obtained by PCR RFLP in 25 health donors were as follows: 24 of aa, 1 of ab and 0 of bb. All were in good agreement with those determined by PCR ASO. Conclusions Because PCR RFLP method is plain, fast and reliable for HPA 5 system genotyping, it is suitable for the diagnosis and therapy of neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia, posttransfusion purpura, platelet transfusion refractoriness and so on..

Objective To investigate the technique and instrument improvement of laparoscopic choledocholithotomy with T-tube drainage. Methods A total of 42 cases of gall stones complicated with common bile duct stones entered the study. During the operation, we exposed the common bile duct before the removal of the gall bladder, opened the common bile duct by a self-made bile duct scalpel, removed the stones by open instruments laparoscopically, and performed choledochofiberscopic examinations and T-tube drainages. Results All the 42 operations were successfully accomplished without the conversion to open surgery. The operation time (exclusive of that of LC) was 80～180 min (mean, 96 min). All the patients got out of bed and received liquids within 24 hours after the surgery. The postoperative hospital stay was 5～9 days (mean, 6 days). The T-tube was removed 3 weeks after the operation in the absence of residual stones or stenosis of bile duct under T-tube choledochography. Follow-up for 6～48 months (mean, 23 months) in 38 cases found no recurrence of stones or biliary tract symptoms. Conclusions The modified laparoscopic choledocholithotomy with T-tube drainage, which shortens the operation time, is an effective and safe method for the treatment of common bile duct stones.

Objective:To study the effects of several herbal medicines on SMMC-7721 liver cancer cells with Fourier transform infrared spectrometer(FTIR). Methods: FTIR was employed to determine the infrared spectra(IRs) of SMMC-7721 liver cancer cells cultivated for 20 h with the extracts of Spica prunellae, Herba houttuyniae, Radix bupleuri and Herba artemisiae scopariae. Cluster analysis of IRs was also performed. Results: IR spectral parameters such as band shape, intensity and frequency of the blank, control and herbal-extract-treated cells were compared. There existed obvious blue shift of ? s(PO 2 -), ? as (PO 2 -) bands, red shift of ? as (CH 3), ?(CH 2) bands on the herbal-extract-treated cells IRs. The decreasing ratio of ? as (CH 3) to ? s(CH 2) peak intensity and the increasing ratio of ? s(PO 2 -) to ?(N-H) peak area indicated the destructive effect of herbal extracts on the membrane structure of SMMU-7721 cells and inhibitory effect on the DNA replication respectively. Cluster analysis successfully discriminated the herbal-extract-treated cells from the blank cells and the liver-oriented medicines from the non-liver-oriented medicine. Conclusion: FTIR provides another fast and effective approach to analyze the changes of cells treated with Chinese herbal medicines, which may help to illuminate the functional mechanism of Chinese herbal medicines.

BACKGROUND: Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) protein is widely expressed in cells and tissues of different type and. It is the important component of signal transduction and transcription chain that participates in the regulation of various physiological functions of cells like proliferation and differentiation. However, there is no literature reported regarding if there is STAT3 expression and whether it participates in embryo liver development both at home and abroad.OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects and mechanism of STAT3 signal transduction route on development of embryo liver by. Studying the expression of STAT3 protein during embryo liver development in mice.DESIGN: Randomized controlled study based on STAT3 protein.SETTING: Department of histology and embryology in a military medical university of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: The study was completed in the Department of Histology and Embryology, Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA during January to June 2004. Kunming mice were provided by Animal Centre of Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA. Ten male mice and 20 female mice with body mass during 25 to 30 grams were randomly chosen.METHODS: Serial frozen sections of mouse embryo was performed in the 13.5 days ( n = 8), 14.5 days ( n = 9) and 15.5 days ( n = 7) after mating respectively. One of the every 2 slices was used as negative control by replacing first antibody of STAT3 with 0. 01 mol/L PBS. Immunochemical technique and immunofluorescence method were used to display the expression of STAT3 protein in embryo liver development in mice.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Expression of STAT3 protein in serial frozen sections of mouse embryo.RESULTS: There was strong expression of STAT3 protein in liver cells in E13.5 days mouse embryo while the expression was decreased in E14.5 days and E15.5 days mouse embryos.CONCLUSION: STAT3 protein has participated in the development of embryo liver. The expression of STAT3 in liver development can be used to explain the mechanism of liver regeneration and provide experimental data for organ repair.

Objective To explore the efficiency and safety of fondaparinux and low molecular weight heparin(LMWH) on the elder patients with non-ST-segnent elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS).Methods One hundred and forty patients over 75 years old with NSTE-ACS were randomly divided into treatment group(n =70) and control group (n =70).Patients in treatment group were given the conventional treatment combined with fondaparinux,and in control group were given the basis of conventional treatment combined with LMWH.The therapeutic efficacy,the cardiovascular events at 4 d,7 d and 30 d during the treatment and bleeding incidence rate were observed.Reslts There was no statistically significant difference between the treatment group and control group in the total effective rate (x2 =0.475,P ＞ 0.05.Meanwhile,no significant differences were found between the two groups in cardiovascular events at 4 d,7 d and 30 d (x2 =0.257,0.475 and 0.317,P ＞0.05).The incidence rate of bleeding in treatment group was obviously lower than that in control group and there was statistically significant difference (2.9％ vs.31.4％ ; x2 =20.115,P ＜0.01).Conclusion The effectiveness of fondaparinux used in elderly patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes is similar with LMWH,but the incidence rate of bleeding is lower than LMWH.

BACKGROUND:Currently, there are many studies on colapsed repair, but a systematic and horizontal comparison is not reported yet. OBJECTIVE: To compare the effect of conventional resin adhesive, resin adhesive+silane coupling agent and adjacent surface open part of the crown on colapsed repair through clinical trial and in vitro experiment. METHODS: (1) Clinical trial: 90 patients with porcelain colapse were randomized into three groups, and respectively treated with conventional resin adhesive, resin adhesive+silane coupling agent and adjacent surface open part of the crown. Success rate was measured and compared among three groups at 1 year after repair. (2) In vitro test: Twenty test specimens were equaly divided into two groups, and treated with conventional resin adhesive and resin adhesive+silane coupling agent, respectively. Then, shear strength was detected in the two groups. Twenty double-crown specimens were equaly divided into four groups. The first three groups were treated with sand blasting, silane coupling agent and their combination treatment, respectively; the rest group had no treatment (control group). After repair, the tensile strength of each specimen was detected.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The success rate of colapsed repair was 37% for conventional resin adhesive, 90% for resin adhesive+silane coupling agent and 100% for adjacent surface open part of the crown. The shear strength was (13.978±0.343) MPa for the conventional resin adhesive and (10.058±0.64) MPa for resin adhesive+silane coupling agent, and there was a significant difference between two methods (P < 0.01). The tensile strength was (0.68±0.04) kN in the control group, (1.00±0.02) kN in the sand blasting group, (1.31±0.08) kN in silane coupling agent group, and (1.09±0.04) kN in the combination group, and there was a significant differences between groups (P < 0.01). Experimental results show that the silane coupling agent+resin adhesive treatment and adjacent surface open part of the crown are superior to conventional resin adhesive.

Objective To compare the short-term prognostic value of glycohemoglobin (HbA1c) and admission plasma glucose in non-diabetic patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction.Methods Eighty-four non-diabetic patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction from January 2010 to June 2011 were included.Both HbA1c and plasma glucose was measured on admission.Cardiovascular event was followed up in 30 days.Results The average of HbA1c and admission plasma glucose was as cut-off point.The patients were divided into HbA1c ＜ 5.5％ group (40 cases) and HbA1c ≥5.5％ group (44 cases) according to HbA1c level.The patients were divided into admission plasma glucose ≤ 8.6 mmol/L group (42 cases) and admission plasma glucose ＞ 8.6 mmol/L group (42 cases) according to admission plasma glucose.The incidence of cardiovascular event in 30 days in admission plasma glucose ＞ 8.6 mmol/L group was higher than that in admission plasma glucose ≤ 8.6 mmol/L group [19.0％ (8/42) vs.2.4％ (1/42)],and there was significant difference(P＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of cardiovascular event in 30 days between HbA1c ≥5.5％ group and HbA1c ＜ 5.5％ group (P ＞ 0.05).Admission plasma glucose showed weak correlation with blood creatine kinase isoenzyme MB peak (r =0.233,P ＜0.05).Conclusion In non-diabetic patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction,elevated admission plasma glucose levels are associated with higher cardiovascular event in 30 days.
