To evaluate the application value of the Peyton four-step teaching method in the standardized training of intestinal ultrasound and compare it with traditional teaching methods, so as to provide an optimized approach for clinical ultrasound training.

Objective To investigate the expressions of cyclin B2(CCNB2)and cyclin E1(Cyclin E1)in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)and their significance for the prognosis of HCC.Methods Sixty HCC patients were admitted and treated from October 2013 to October 2016.The expressions of CCNB2 and Cyclin E1 in 60 HCC tissues and adjacent normal tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry,and the relationship between the two and the clinicopathological characteristics of HCC patients was analyzed;Spearman method was performed to analyze the correlation of CCNB2 and Cyclin E1 expression;Kaplan-Meier was performed to analyze the relationship between CCNB2,Cyclin E1 expression and clinical prognosis;and univariate and multivariate Cox regression were performed to analyze the influencing factors of clinical prognosis of HCC patients.Results The positive expression rates of CCNB2 and Cyclin E1 in HCC(61.67％,56.67％)were significantly higher than those in adjacent normal tissues(20.00％,13.33％,P＜0.05);the positive expressions of CCNB2 and Cyclin E1 were positively correlated with serum AFP level,liver cirrhosis status,tumor thrombus and recurrence(P＜0.05).The expressions of CCNB2 and Cyclin E1 in HCC tissues were positively correlated(r=0.487,P=0.000).The positive expressions of CCNB2 and Cyclin E1 in HCC tissues predicted a lower survival time(x2=7.104,7.140,P=0.008,0.008).In addition,the positive expressions of CCNB2 and Cyclin E1 were independent factors affecting the prognosis of HCC patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion CCNB2 and Cyclin E1 are highly expressed in HCC and are associated with serum AFP level,cirrhosis status,tumor thrombus and recurrence,and can be used as independent prognostic markers.

We researched the mechanism of African swine fever virus (ASFV) protein E248R in regulating the cGAS-STING pathway. First, we verified via the dual-luciferase reporter assay system that E248R protein inhibited the secretion of IFN-β induced by cGAS-STING or HT-DNA in a dose-dependent manner. The relative quantitative PCR analysis indicated that the overexpression of E248R inhibited HT-DNA-induced transcription of IFN-b1, RANTES, IL-6, and TNF-α in PK-15 cells. Next, we found that E248R interacted with STING by co-immunoprecipitation assay and laser confocal microscopy. Finally, we demonstrated that E248R inhibited the expression of STING protein by using Western blotting. We demonstrated for the first time that the E248R protein of ASFV suppressed the host innate immune response via inhibiting STING expression. The results are pivotal in extending the understanding of the ASFV immune escape and can guide the design of vaccines against ASFV.

A pair of specific primers was designed based on the reported Bm86 gene of Boophilus microplus,the Bm86 gene was cloned by PCR using the plasmid pMD18-T-Bm86 as templates,and subcloned into the prokaryotic plasmid pGEX-4T-1.The recombined plasmid was transformed into E.coli BL21(DE3) and followed by expression of the protein induced by different concentration of IPTG for different time.SDS-PAGE showed that the recombinant plasmid pGEX-4T-1/Bm86 expressed a fusion protein Bm86-GST(Mr 94 000) after being induced with IPTG.High level expre-ssion of Bm86-GST was found at 1 mmol/L IPTG condition after incubation for 8 h at 37 ℃,and the expression level of the recom-binant Bm86-GST reached up to 29% of total E.coli proteins.Western-blotting analysis showed that the recombinant Bm86-GST was recognized by the rabbit anti-B.microplus positive serum.
