【Objective】 To explore the regulatory mechanism of miR-204-3p targeting EphB2 gene on proliferation, apoptosis and invasion of NSCLC. 【Methods】 A549 cells were cultured and divided into 5 groups: NC mimic group, miR-204-3p mimic group, OE NCgroup, OE EphB2 group, miR-204-3p mimic+ OE EphB2 group. MTT, flow cytometry, Transwell and scratch test were used to detect cell proliferation, cycle, apoptosis, invasion and migration. Double Luciferase Report was used to analyze the targeting relationship between mir-204-3p and EphB2. The mRNA and protein expression of miR-204-3p, EphB2 were detected by qPCR and WB. 【Results】 Innon-small lung cancer cells, the binding site of mir-204-3p and EphB2 3'UTR region, the high expression of miR-204-3p significantly inhibited the expression of EphB2 mRNA and protein(P<0.01). Compared with the Negtively control group(NC mimic group), the proliferation of A549 cells in miR-204-3p mimicgroup were significantly decrease(P<0.05), and the apototic rate was significantly increased(P<0.05). Also, the cell migration and invasion ability were also decreased significantly(P<0.05). Transfection of Ephb2 reversed the above changes. In addition, in non-small cell lung cancer tissues, miR-204-3p was negatively correlated with EphB2 expression(r=0.636, P<0.001), and the overall survival was shorter in EphB2 high expression groups than that in low expression groups(logrank χ²=3.899, P=0.049) . 【Conclusion】 MiR- 204- 3p inhibits proliferation, migration and invasion of non-small lung cancer cells and induces apoptosis by down-regulating EphB2.

Objective To evaluate the modified foruix-based technique with Guyton hook as an approach for the treatment of children with horizontal strabismus.Methods The clinical data of 128 patients (170 eyes) who underwent horizontal strabismus surgery between January 2014 and June 2017 were retrospectively reviewed,including 60 males and 68 females.The mean age was 1.5-17.0 (6.5 ± 1.6) years.All procedures under general anesthesia were performed using the modified fornix-based conjunctival incision with Guyton hook,and the follow-up period was 6 to 12 months.The clinical and cosmetic outcomes of strabismus surgery,the complications and interventions related to the incision were assessed.Results At 3 months after surgery,orthophoria with excellent cosmetics was achieved in 119 patients (93％) with the deviation ≤ ± 10△.Together 102 eyes (60％) had no intraoperative suture.Moreover,the incision was sutured with one stitch in 45 eye (26.5％),in 20 (11.8％) with 2 stitches,and in 3 (1.8％) with 3 stitches.During the follow up period,there was no severe intraoperative or postoperative complications.The swelling and redness of conjunctiva recovered quickly.Patients' discomfort was alleviated in a few days after the surgery.No oblivious scarring was found along the incision lines.Conclusion The modified fornix-based approach with Guyton hook is an effective and safe method for minimal incision surgery in children with horizontal strabis.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of acupuncture for persistent allergic rhinitis (PAR).Methods:A total of 154 PAR patients were randomized into a treatment group and a control group,78 cases in the treatment group received acupuncture at meridian points,while 76 cases in the control group received acupuncture at non-meridian points.The treatment was done every other day,3 times a week for a total 4 weeks.The total nasal symptom score (TNSS),the total non-nasal symptom score (TNNSS) and the rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire (RQLQ) were measured before the treatment and after 2 weeks and 4 weeks of treatment,as well as 1 month and 3 months after the treatment to compare the clinical effect between the two groups.Results:After 4 weeks of treatment,the total effective rate in the treatment group was 92.3％,versus 76.3％ in the control group,showing a statistically significant difference (P＜0.05).Intra-group comparisons of TNSS,TNNSS and RQLQ scores after 4 weeks of treatment showed statistically significant differences (all P＜0.05).Between-group comparisons of TNSS,TNNSS and RQLQ score after 4 weeks of treatment and in follow-up visits showed statistically significant differences (all P＜0.05).Conclusion:Acupuncture is effective for PAR,and acupuncture at meridian points can produce a better effect than acupuncture at non-meridian points.

To construct a recombinant replication-defective human adenovirus type 5 expressing Cap protein of PCV2 and test the immunological efficacy in mice. In this study, the recombinant replication-defective human adenovirus type 5, named as rAd5-Cap (wt-rAd5), was constructed through homologous recombination internally in the HEK293AD cells after co-transfection of the Pac I-linearized backbone plasmid and the shuttle plasmid pacAd5CMV-Cap containing the open reading frame (ORF2) of the porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) cap protein or pacAd5CMV without inserted fragment. Furthermore, the rAd5-Cap could induce the expression of PCV2 cap protein in the HEK293AD cells with high efficacy evaluated by the RT-PCR and indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA). The virus titer of rAd5-Cap could reach up to 10(8.5) TCID50/mL similarly to that of wt-rAd5, indicating that there was little affect on the virus proliferation after the insertion of PCV2 cap protein gene. The humeral immune responses could be activated and detected 14 days after the inoculation of the mice with 10(7) TCID50 rAd5-Cap intramuscularly, and constantly in crease in another 14 days. These molecular biological and animal experiments results demonstrated that the PCV2 cap protein could be efficiently expressed by the recombinant adenovirus rAd5-Cap in eukaryotic cells and induce robust immune responses in mice, which laid a good foundation for the development of new type vaccine against porcine circovirus.
