Corneal anterior curvature ( K1, K2 ) before and corneal posterior curvature K1 there was no significant difference (P>0. 05). Han had no significant relationship in corneal thickness and corneal anterior curvature ( r<0 ) , or in corneal posterior curvature ( r < 1 ) . Uygur has no significant relationship in corneal thickness and corneal anterior curvature (r<0), or in corneal posterior curvature (r<1).
CONCLUSION: There are significant differences between the Uygur and the Han nationality college emmetropia students in cornea thickness, anterior chamber depth and corneal posterior curvature K2.

IL-2 gene was introduced into human erythroleukemic cell line K562 by retroviral vector. After transduction for eighteen days, flow microfluorometric analysis for DNA distribution of both K562/neo and K562/IL-2 cells indicated that transduced cells were accumulated in a state of G2M arrest. Thirty days later, the number of G2+M in K562/neo cells decreased, but proportion of G0/G1 in K562/IL-2 cells was still lower and G2+M was higher than that of nontransduced cells. The proliferative activity assay by MTT method demonstrated that the proliferation of K562/IL-2 was slow following four day culture. The index of mitosis was decreased. The results of light microscopical studies showed many giant and multinucleate giant cells with even more than twenty nuclei in each cell. It was possible that the formation of multinucleate giant cells associated with repeated endomitosis in a single cell. Further analysis of morphometry confirmed that the size of IL-2 gene modified K562 cells was increased. The ratio of giant cells was higher than that of nontransduced K562 cells. We suggested that I1-2 gene transduction might have some regulation effects on proliferative activity of K562 cells. IL-2 gene modified K562 cells might be blocked at a stage of G2.
4.Screening and identification of forensic molecular markers of injury using MALDI-TOF-MS imaging mass spectrometry.
Journal of Forensic Medicine 2014;30(5):367-370
There are many deficiencies in forensic traumatic molecular markers detected by the techniques of traditional immunohistology and molecular biology, because these markers are isolated and obscure of the mechanism of interaction. The imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) is more suitable for the forensic molecular markers using function of screening, analysis and graphical representation. In this paper, the techniques and the latest research in screening and identification of typical molecular markers by IMS based on matrix-assisted laser adsorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) are reviewed. And its application values in forensic injury are discussed.

Objective To observe the effect of signal transduction pathway of NF-κB on tubular cell apoptosis in ischemia-reperfusion induced acute kidney injury (AKI) in mice.Methods Eighteen C57B/6 mice were randomly (random number) divided into three groups,namely control group,AKI group,and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) group.AKI model of mouse was made by occlusion of bilateral renal pedicles with microvascular clamps for 45 minutes,and intraperitoneal injection of PDTC (50 mg/kg) was given immediately after modeling in mice of PDTC group.Forty-eight hours after modeling,kidney pathological changes,serum creatinine (SCr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were examined,and renal tissue NF-κB,TNFR,Bcl-2 and caspase-3 levels were detected by using immunohistochemistry,and tubular cell apoptosis was observed by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling assay (TUNEL).Results (1) The pathological Pallers score of renal damage,blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine levels in PDTC group were significantly lower than those in AKI group [(2.83 ± 0.41)vs.(4.50± 0.55),P=0.000; (61.65 ±3.06) mmol/L vs.(77.78 ±5.82)mmol/L,P=0.000and (74.33 ± 9.83) μmol/L vs.(152.00 ± 16.55) μmol/L,P =0.000,respectively].(2) The level of NF-κB in renal tissue homogenates in PDTC group was significantly lower than that in AKI group [(20.33± 2.34) % vs.(35.83 ± 3.06) %,P =0.000].(3) The apoptotic index of renal tubular cells in PDTC group was significantly lower than that in AKI group [(16.67 ± 1.15) % vs.(28.00 ±2.01) %,P =0.001].(4) The levels of caspase-3 and TNFR1 in renal tissue homogenates in PDTC group were significantly lower than those in AKI group [(7.00 ± 1.26) vs.(11.00 ± 1.26),P =0.000 and (5.55 ± 0.82) vs.(9.75 ± 0.76),P =0.000],and Bcl-2 level in PDTC group was significantly higher than that in AKI group [(10.50± 1.38)vs.(1.83 ±0.98),P=0.000].Conclusions NF-κB activates renal tubular cell apoptosis in acute kidney injury induced in mice after ischemia-reperfusion.Blockade of NF-κB signal transduction pathway may lessen the apoptosis of renal tubular cells,leading to renal function less compromised.

Objective:This study aims to ensure the private hospitals development strategy in the background of new healthcare reform and put forward some scientific suggestions to help promote their sustainable development. Methods:The SWOT analysis method was adopted to analyze the private hospitals’ internal strength, weakness, exter-nal opportunity and threats. Results: The results showed a clear property right, advanced management system and other outstanding advantages in the private hospitals. Opportunities like the improved policy environment and people’s medical demand expansion are also very prominent. Meanwhile, the private hospitals development also faces some disadvantages and challenges such as illegal operation, disorder in the market competition, vague orientation, etc. Conclusions:It suggests the strengthening of the personnel and hospital culture construction, adoption of the differen-tiation strategy, improvement of the diagnosis and treatment ability, etc.

MicroRNA(miRNA) is a class of non-coding RNA that plays an important role in gene expression and controlling. In recent years,the role of miRNA in the development of the disease has aroused great interest. Abnormal osteoclastogenesis and persistent inflammatory response induced by wear particles or osteoblast differentiation and maturation is the main cause of aseptic loosening in joint replacements. New researches shows that persistent inflammatory response, osteoclastogenesis and osteoblast differentiation are closely associated with miRNA, suggesting that there are certain relations between miRNA and aseptic loosening of prostheses. Additionally, the alteration of the expression levels of some miRNA may be curative for aseptic loosening. With the findings of the new miRNA targets, the important role of miRNA is further confirmed.

Abstract A method for determination of trace mercury in water was established. The trace mercury in water was adsorbed quantitatively by activated carbon, and then determined by electrical pyrolysis atomic absorption spectrometry. In comparison with the detection methods of total mercury in water at present, the method avoids the steps of digestion, reduces the mercury pollution and the loss of the mercury, and is simple in operation. The effects of particle size of activated carbon, acid treatment method, acid medium and enrichment time on the enrichment efficiency were investigated. The effect of the pyrolysis temperature and the interfering ions on the determination results was investigated. Three standard addition procedures including activated carbon blank addition, solution blank addition and environmental water samples addition were studied. Regression correlation coefficients of three standard curves drawn by the three methods reached 0 . 9999 . The slope of the three standard curves had no difference by statistical test, indicating that the determination of mercury in environmental water samples under the experiment conditions was not interfered by the coexistent elements, which showed that the activated carbon blank addition method could be directly used for preparing standard curve of the method. The water samples containing 5 ng/L and 50 ng/L mercury were determined by the method, and the relative standard deviation were 7. 2% and 4. 2% (n=11), respectively, with a detection limit of 1. 2 ng/L. The recovery experiment was carried out after adding 10 ng/L mercury to the surface water and tap water samples, and the recoveries were between 92. 0% and 103. 0%. Analysis results were compared with ICP-MS as control and the deviation of the two methods were between 2 . 9% and 3 . 4%, indicating that the method was accurate and reliable, and had good precision.
