Plant insect-resistantgenetic engineering hasopened a new way to prevent and cure against the insect pest incrop and wood productions. With the progresses instudies, many insect-resistantgeneswere cloned and characterized. The classification of most insect-resistantgenes from plant, the functionalmechanism and the applications of theplantinsect-resistantgenes, the problems and prospectsforusing the plant insect-resistant genes in genetic engineering was described.

With development of wide-host-range vector systems,Tn5 transposon and its derivative vectors have been widely applied to genetic research of gram-negative bacteria.The applications of Tn5 transposon mutagenesis technology to genetic researches of bacteria were briefly discussed,including researches on biological control mechanisms of biocontrol bacteria,identification of bacterial essential genes,discovering virulence genes of bacterial pathogens,characterization of metabolism regulatory genes and genetic improvements of bacteria.

BACKGROUND:Skin grafting is crucial for patients with deep burns, but limited source of autologous skin grafts is an existing difficulty.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of xenogeneic (porcine) acelular dermal matrix in the treatment of deep burn wounds and the feasibility of its application.
METHODS:Forty-one patients with deep burn were divided into two groups according to the intention of the patients, 21 cases in control group and 20 cases in observational group, folowed by autologous split-thickness skin grafting alone or combined with different (porcine) acelular dermal matrix, respectively. After 12 months of folow-up, the graft success rate at postoperative 1, 2, 3, 4 weeks and skin graft contraction rate and wound repair at postoperative 3, 6, 9, 12 months were observed and compared between two groups. Moreover, levels of inflammatory factors were detected and compared between two groups at postoperative 1, 2, 3 months.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The skin graft success rates showed no difference between two groups at postoperative 1, 2, 3, 4 weeks (P > 0.05). The skin graft contraction rates also showed no difference between two groups at postoperative 3, 6, 9, 12 months (P > 0.05). After 12 months of folow-up, no serious scar hyperplasia, but soft texture appeared in the control group. In the observational group, three cases presented with local pigmentation at the early stage, but it gradualy subsided with time; no obvious scar, but only smal, point-like scar, was visible, and the repaired wound exhibited soft touch. No adverse events and death occurred in both two groups. Experimental results show that the treatment of deep burns with autologous split-thickness skin grafting combined with xenogeneic (porcine) acelular dermal matrix is safe and effective, which can improve the quality of wound healing.

Background and purpose:The incidence of hepatoma is high. The outcome of treatment on hepatoma is poor.So we investigated the effect and mechanism of a selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor celecoxib on the proliferation and apoptosis of SMMC-7721 hepatoma cell line. Methods:MTT assay was used to study the inhibitive effect of celecoxib on the growth of SMMC-7721 hepatoma cell. The effect of celecoxib on cell cycle and apoptosis on cells was studied by flow cytometry(FCM).Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used to display the morphological change of the SMMC-7721 hepatoma cell . The biochemical character of apoptosis was viewed on the agarose gel electrophoresis.The expression of bax gene and bcl-2 gene were measured by immunohistochemistry.Results:The SMMC-7721 cells were cultured in media that contained 25,50,75,100 ?mol/L celecoxib,by means of MTT, the inhibition rate was(15?3)%,(34.6?2.4)%,56.8?1.0)%,(86.2?0.4)% respectively after 24 hours; but the inhibition rate was (33.4?0.7)%,(66.7?1.8)%,(76.1?2.4)%,(97.3?0.8)% respectively after 48 hours(P
