Detect unique molecular structure associated with physiochemical properties in CDC varieties of oat grain with unique nutrient traits [Feed Type vs. Milling Type] in comparison with barley grain using advanced molecular spectroscopy as a non-destructive biological tool

The objective of this study was to determinate grain unique protein inherent molecular structure that are related physiochemical and nutrient profiles in CDC developed oat varieties [CDC Nasser (Feed Type) and CDC Seabiscuit (Milling Type)] grown in cool climate condition in western Canada in comparison with conventional barley variety of CDC Meredith as a control using advanced molecular spectroscopy. Multivariate analyses, including an agglomerative hierarchical cluster analysis (CLA) and principal component analysis (PCA), were performed to identify protein molecular structural differences among the grains. The results revealed that CDC Seabiscuit contained greater (P < 0.05) protein structural Amide I and II than CDC Nasser and CDC Meredith, while the greater (P < 0.005) structural Amide I to II area and height ratios was detected in CDC Meredith. New oat grains had greater (P < 0.05) β-sheet height than barley grains, however, there was no difference in α-helix to β-sheet ratio values among the varieties. In conclusion, CDC Nasser and CDC Meredith had no difference in protein molecular structural features, while CDC Seabiscuit contains different protein structural characteristics as compared to CDC Meredith grain. The molecular structure features are highly associated with physiochemical and nutrient profiles in grains, which indicate that it also affect nutrient utilization and availability.     

Identification of an H1N1 subtype of swine influenza virus and serological analysis

To investigate the epizootic of swine influenza virus(SIV), 60 nasal swabs were collected from a clinical cases of pig farm in Tai'an City, Shandong Province of China in April 2017. SIV was isolated by inoculating into 10-day-old Special Pathogen Free embryonated eggs and the whole genome was sequenced. An H1N1 subtype SIV was isolated and designated as A/swine/Shandong/TA04/2017(H1N1). Phylogenetic analysis showed that apart from the polymerase A(PA) fragment belonging to the 2009 pandemic H1N1 branch, seven genome segments belonged to avian-like H1N1 influenza virus lineage. The cleavage site sequence of the hemagglutinin(HA) protein was PSIQSR↓G, which is a typical molecular biological characteristic. Five potential N-glycosylation sites(N14, N26, N277, N484 and N543) were found in the HA gene. To further investigate the epidemiology of SIV in this farm, the 995 serum samples were assessed with EAH1N1 2009 pandemic H1N1 and H3 N2 antigens. The results showed that the total positive rate was 65.43%. The positive rates of single virus infection detected by EAH1N1, 2009 pdmH1N1 and H3 N2 for serum HI(Hemagglutination inhibition) were 48.35, 30.85 and 7.47%, respectively. The results showed that SIV in Shandong Province has been reassorted in some segments and the SIV-positive rate was high on the SIV outbreak farm. These data provide evidence of an epizootic of SIV.     

多层螺旋CT与核磁共振血管成像、数字减影对主动脉夹层诊断的比较研究

目的：比较多层螺旋CT(multi-slice spiral CT，MSCT)与核磁共振血管成像(MRA)、数字减影(DSA)对主动脉夹层(aortic dissection，AD)的诊断价值。方法：对17例AD患者行MSCT检查，并与MRA、DSA的检查结果进行比较。结果：对17例AD患者用MSCT、MRA、DSA都能作出诊断(按DeBakey分型，Ⅰ型有4例，Ⅱ型有1例，Ⅲ型有12例)，但只有MSCT能明确显示夹层的范围和分支的受累情况，以及剥离内膜瓣、裂口及主动脉的周围情况。而MRA对裂口的检出率只有21．74％，DSA可达87．0％。结论：MSCT对AD的分型以及破裂口的定位诊断更具准确性，对动脉分支显示更清晰。

生长抑素(SS)与硫氧还原蛋白(Thioredoxin)相融合生成的2种基因工程化融合蛋白SS-N/X和SS-N/S的表达特性

对基因工程化生长抑素（somatostatin,SS)-硫氧还原蛋白（Thioredoxin)融合蛋白SS－N／X和SS－N／S的表达产量、水溶性、Triton X-100对SS融合蛋白水溶性的影响、包涵体的溶解和复性特点以及SS的抗原性与免疫原性等特性进行了研究。结果显示，在30℃的低温下用IPTG诱导表达，SS－N／X融合蛋白主要以可溶性形式存在，占75．8％，色涵体仅占24．2％；而SS－N／S融合蛋白则主要以包涵体的形式存在，占81．1％，可溶性蛋白仅占18．9％；32C载体（pEG-32C)蛋白则居二者之间，可溶性蛋白与包涵体大约等比例出现。SS－N／S在低温下诱导可超量表达SS融合蛋白，其表达量约占菌体总蛋白的40．94％。0．5％ Triton X-100对融合蛋白的不溶性有非常显著的影响，几乎可使所有的SS－N／X融合蛋白和大部分SS－N／S融合蛋白及32C硫氧还原蛋白变成水溶性的。32C硫氧还原蛋白包涵体在尿素中的溶解度明显高于SS－N／S包涵体，2mol/L尿素可使近一半的32C硫氧还原蛋白包涵体溶解，而SS－N／S包涵体只有27．5％溶解；但在5mol/L尿素时，两者均可基本全部变为可溶性的。在SS融合蛋白包涵体溶解时加入还原剂二硫苏糖醇，可明显降低SS的抗原性。SS融合蛋白（水溶性融合蛋白和复性后的包涵体）具有良好的SS抗原性和免疫原性。由SS融合蛋白与弗氏不完全佐剂制成试验用疫苗，免疫BALB／c小鼠、仔猪和羔羊等动物，可显著提高免疫动物的增重。
