[ Method] With the material of common wheat Linyou 145, Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase (PEPCase) gene was introduced into wheat embryo callus by the agrobacterium-mediated transformation system, and then analyzed through successive selection with selective medium con- taing gygrornycin to detect the gene at the molecular level. [Result] The hyg-resistant plants were obtained, and GUS histochemical staining showed the leaf of resistant plants was stained dark blue. The target bands appeared in PCR analysis. [ Conclusion] Phosphoenolpyruvate Car- boxylase (PEPCase) gene has been primarily introduced into the recipient material.展开更多

Parameters used for risk classification have some deficiencies in the selection of patients. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of TAVI on carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) and N-terminal pro brain-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) as biomarkers that have been used frequently in recent years, and also the relationship of these biomarkers to prognosis. Methods & Results Transcatheter aortic valve implantation was practiced on 31 patients in this study. Then, CA125 and NT-proBNP levels studied in patients prior to and after the TAVI were evaluated. The patients were also grouped in accordance with their left ventrieular ejection fraction (LVEF) and CA125 levels (LVEF 〉 40% and 〈 40%; CA125 ≤ 35 U/L and 〉 35 U/L). The TAVI operation was successfully performed in all patients. There was no in-hospital mortality and substantial improvement in functional capacity was detected at follow ups. In addition, a statistically significant decrease was detected in post-TAVI CA 125 and NT-proBNP levels of all patients (CA 125 83.8 ± 18.1 U/L vs. 64.3 ±14.2 U/L, P = 0.008; NT-proBNP: 4633.6± 627.6 pg/mL vs. 2866.3±536.8 pg/mL, P 〈 0.001). In groups divided according to the CA125 levels, there was also statistically significant post-TAVI decline in CA125 levels. Within CA125 〉 35 U/L and LVEF 〈 40% groups, the permanent need for a pacemaker was required in one (3.2%) patient and mortality was observed in two (6.4%) patients after TAVI at follow up. Conclusions The results show that TAVI can be performed effectively and reliably in patients with high baseline levels of CA125 and NT-proBNP. These biomarkers are reduced substantially with TAVI, while high biomarker levels are associated with undesired events, and certainly, these biomarkers can be used for risk classifications in patient selection for TAVI.展开更多

The influences of the concentration, temperature and time of chemical doping and the dose, energy and temperature of ion implantation, on PPP conductivity are investigated. The results showed that the conductivity of PPP can be improved 4~5 orders of magnitude by ion implantation and the conductivity of PPP can reach about 0.11 S·cm -1 by chemical doping. The comparison of stability of the material conductive behavior by using the two doping methods is presented. It shows that ion implantation is better than chemical doping in stabilizing the electric conductive behavior for the material.展开更多

Using the binary vector strategy,we first inserted the remolded tPA gene into the Ti-derived plasmid, PGA643 and then transferred,in a triparental mating system,the plasmid into a strain of Agrobacterium tumefaciens,A281, that contained vir-DNA.Finally poplar cells were transformed with A. tumefaciens using leaf discus method. The transformed cells were selected in culture containing kanamycin and in siyu hybridization.Successful generation of transgenic poplar was demonstrated by molecular hybridization in the cultivated plants and detection of tPA gene product.展开更多
