		                        			The major histocompatibility complex(MHC)is closely related to immune regulation.MHC shows distinct genetic polymorphism,and there are also species differences in MHC restriction.The human MHC is called human leukocyte antigen(HLA),and the mouse MHC is called H-2.The construction of humanized MHC transgenic mouse models is an important strategy to overcome the differences in MHC among species and simulate the characteristics of a human immune response.MHC transgenic mice are mainly divided into MHC Ⅰ or MHC Ⅱ single-transgenic mouse models and MHC Ⅰ and MHC Ⅱ double-transgenic mouse models.The development of HLA Ⅰ transgenic mouse model went through three stages,at present,the strategy of knocking out H-2Kb and H-2Db or murine β2m is adopted to eliminate the competitive inhibition of HLA Ⅰ molecules by endogenous H-2 class Ⅰ molecules.In the construction of an HLA Ⅱtransgenic mouse model,the β strand of murine origin is knocked out and HLA Ⅱ class genes are inserted.With the optimization of construction strategies,MHC transgenic mouse models have been applied to epitope vaccine development,tumor treatment,and genetic disease-association studies,becoming a powerful tool for preclinical trials.In this paper,we summarize the relevant data on MHC transgenic mouse models,as well as the construction strategies used for MHC transgenic mouse models and their application in vaccine development and disease treatment.

		                        			To explore the influence of heat and noise exposure on the risk of hypertension in workers,and to provide evidence for prevention of hypertension in occupational population.
		                        		
		                        			Methods:
		                        			Cluster sampling method was used to recruit 2 130 steel workers from four factories(north iron-making,long steel,cold steel and power department)of some steel company. A cross-sectional study was conducted to collect physical examination results,heat and noise exposure. Logistic regression models were used to analyze the effects of noise,heat and their interaction on hypertension. 
		                        		
		                        			Results:
		                        			Totally 1 971 valid questionnaires were collected,and the response rate was 92.54%. There were 654 workers suffering from hypertension,with a prevalence rate of 33.18%. There were 1 006 workers exposed to noise,accounting for 51.04%;and 853 workers exposed to heat,accounting for 43.28%. The prevalence rates of hypertension in workers exposed to noise and heat were higher than those in workers without the above exposure(P<0.05). The prevalence rates of hypertension increased with the increase of age and working years(P<0.05). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that noise(OR=1.711,95%CI:1.380-2.121),heat(OR=1.721,95%CI:1.394-2.125)were risk factors for hypertension;the interaction between noise and heat on hypertension was not statistically significant(P>0.05),while the interaction between noise and age(OR=1.086,95%CI:1.057-1.115),between heat and age(OR=1.087,95%CI:1.059-1.115)both increased the risk of hypertension.

The negative pressure, cup-retaining time, temperature and the other factors about cupping spot were compared. There was a single stimulus for the negative pressure and cupping time. Pressure and time, pressure and temperature could be considered interactively, and the best group was on research. The color standard of canister spot diagnosis had not been unified, which could be analyzed from its color characteristic and color spectrum. At present, there is no agreement on the measurement of pressure and temperature, selection criteria of subjects, etc. The experimental researchmethods on the spot are becoming more and more diverse, with modern instruments for cupping spot on clinical efficacy and biological mechanism research.

		                        			ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of prenatal taurine supplementation on the Rho-ROCK signaling pathway activity and synaptophysin (Syp) expression in brain tissues of rats with intrauterine growth restriction.MethodsEighteen pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group, fetal growth restriction (FGR) group and taurine group, with six rats in each group. Low-protein diet was given in FGR and taurine groups to establish an FGR model. Taurine 300 mg/(kg·d) was supplemented from gestational day 12 until delivery in taurine group. The mRNA expression levels of neurite growth inhibitor-A(Nogo-A), neurite growth inhibitor receptor (NgR), Rho-A and ROCKⅡin fetal rat brain were detected using reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (n=24), which are the key signaling molecules of the Rho-ROCK signal pathway. The protein expression levels of Nogo-A and NgR were detected by Western blot (n=12). The mean optical density in Nogo-A, NgR and Syp was determined by immunohistochemistry (n=18). One-way analysis of variance and LSD-t test were used for statistical analysis.Results(1) Expression of mRNA: the expression levels of Nogo-A, NgR, Rho-A and ROCKⅡ mRNA in fetal rat brain were 4.09±1.34, 3.01±0.77, 39.89±7.71 and 7.82±1.83, respectively in FGR group, and were significantly higher than in control group (1.00±0.13, 1.00±0.10, 1.02±0.30 and 1.00±0.10) (t=4.735, 5.204, 7.682 and 10.675, allP<0.05). The expressions in taurine group (1.07±0.30, 1.20±0.27, 5.36±0.41 and 1.89±0.43) were significantly lower than in FGR group (t=4.645, 4.690, 6.687 and 9.485, allP<0.05), and there was no statistical difference between taurine group and control group (allP>0.05). (2) Expression of protein by Western blot: the expressions of Nogo-A and NgR protein in fetal rat brain were 1.51±0.09 and 0.31±0.05 in FGR group, 0.82±0.06 and 0.06±0.01 in taurine group, and 1.04±0.10 and 0.09±0.12 in control group. The expression was significantly higher in FGR group than in control group (t=9.644 and 5.285, bothP<0.05). The expression was significantly lower in taurine group than in FGR group (t=14.163 and 5.825, bothP<0.05), and there was no statistical difference between taurine group and control group (allP>0.05). (3) Positive expression of protein: the positive expressions of Nogo-A and NgR protein in fetal rat brain were 0.28±0.06 and 0.11±0.02 in FGR group, 0.10±0.02 and 0.04±0.01 in taurine group, and 0.07±0.01 and 0.04±0.01 in control group. The expression was significantly higher in FGR group than in control group (t=9.778 and 7.645, bothP<0.05). The expression in taurine group was significantly lower than in FGR group (t=8.679 and 7.413, bothP<0.05), and there was no statistical difference between taurine group and control group (bothP>0.05). The positive expression of Syp protein in fetal rat brain was 0.08±0.01 in FGR group, and was significantly lower than in control group (0.16±0.04,t=4.600,P<0.05). The expression in taurine group (0.14±0.36) was significantly higher than in FGR group (t=3.181,P<0.05), and there was no statistical difference between taurine group and control group (P>0.05).ConclusionsPrenatal taurine supplementation can improve neural axon development via down-regulating the expressions of the key molecules of Rho-ROCK signal pathway in fetal rat brain tissue.

		                        			The magnetic Illite ( MILT) was firstly prepared by an effective polyol-medium solvothermal method. Based on these 3-( methacryloyloxy) propyl trimethoxysilane ( MILT-MPS), magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (MMIPs) were further synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization in a mixture solution of methanol and deionized water. The as-prepared MMIIPs were characterized by FT-IR, TEM), XRD, TGA and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and the results indicated that the MMIIPs exhibited magnetic sensitivity ( Ms =3. 866 emu / g ), thermal stability and a larger specific surface area (109. 58 m2 / g). The batch mode adsorption studies were carried out to investigate the recognition specificity and selective capacity. The Langmuir isotherm model was fitted to the equilibrium data, and the monolayer adsorption capacity of MMIPs at 25℃ was 86. 58 mg / g. The selective recognition experiments demonstrated high affinity and selectivity of MMIPs towards ciprofloxacin ( CIP) over competitive compounds. Combined with high performance liquid chromatographic analysis technology, the prepared MMIIPs were successfully applied to extract and enrich trace CIP in environmental samples with the CIP recoveries from 93. 4% to 98. 3% and the limit of detection of 0. 01 mg / L.
