Protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) 1B is a potential target for the treatment of diabetes and obesity. Phosphotyrosine (pTyr) is the substrate for PTP1B dephosphorylation. Malonic acid moiety was used herein as a mimic of the phosphate group in pTyr, and novel malonic acid derivatives 1-7 were designed, synthesized and evaluated as PTP1B inhibitors. Results from enzymatic assays indicated that compounds 3 and 4 exhibited potent inhibition against human recombinant PTP1B with IC50 values of 7.66 and 1.88 micromol x L(-1), respectively.

This paper discusses from two aspects of case writing and PBL implementation experience. PBL cases should be based on professional requirements and reflect professional characteristics. Health inspection and quarantine cases targeted at application-oriented talent cultivation can be integrated into relevant experimental skills items. At the same time, the forms of case writing are expanded according to the differences of theme forms, which are designed as parallel cases and serial cases, so as to be applicable to the curriculum integration in different areas. In the implementation of PBL teaching, students' learning status is the key to the efficiency of classroom discussion, which determines whether the implementation of PBL is completely autonomous learning or embedded instruction. Teachers should establish cooperative learning atmosphere to improve the efficiency of classroom discussion

The "quality-oriented education" is closely integrated with the problem-based learning(PBL) teaching mode. In the teaching of Technologies for Microbial Detection course, the PBL teaching mode is the carrier, the student is the host, and the brainstorm guides the students to conduct "dialectical thinking", so as to cultivate the students' "innovation", "social morality" and "self-learning ability". We choose the interactive platform of "WeChat" and "MosoInk WebSite" to make up for the deficiency of PBL teaching in the large class, and comprehensively assess students' knowledge and skills, humanistic quality, and value judgment.
