RESUMO
The molecular pathogenesis of leukemia is poorly understood. Earlier studies have shown both Wilms' tumor 1 suppressor gene (WT1) and CML28 abnormally expressed in malignant diseases of the hematopoietic system and WT1 played an important role in leukemogenesis. However, the relationship between molecular CML28 and WT1 has not been reported. Here we described the use of small interfering RNA (siRNA) against WT1 and CML28 in leukemic cell line K562 to examine the interaction between CML28 and WT1. WT1 and CML28 gene expression in transfected K562 cells was detected by using RQ-PCR and Western blotting. K562 cells transfected with WT1-siRNA could greatly decrease both mRNA and protein expression levels of WT1 and CML28. In contrast, CML28-siRNA did not exert effect on WT1. Further, subcellular co-localization assay showed that the two proteins could co-localize in the cytoplasm of K562 cells, but WT1/CML28 complexes were not detected by using immunoprecipitation. It was suggested that there exists the relationship between CML28 and WT1. CML28 may be a downstream target molecule of WT1 and regulated by WT1, which will provide important clues for further study on the role of CML28 and WT1 in leukemic cells.

RESUMO
This study was aimed to investigate the expression of GST-CML28 in Escherichia Coli and to prepare its antibody. The constructed recombinant expression vectors CML28-pGEX-3X were transformed into Escherichia Coli BL21 under IPTG induction. The protein was abstracted from the transformers, and purified by a GSTrap FF column. The rabbits were immunized by the purified fusion protein to produce serum with anti-CML28 antibody. The serum was purified by chromatographic column stuffed with glutathione Sephamse 4B to get the antibody. The specific antibody against CML28 was further identified by ELISA, Western blot, immunohistochemistry and quantum dot luminescence. The results indicated that GST-CML28 fusion protein was expressed in Escherichia coli and its specific polyclonal antibody was obtained. It is concluded that the anti-CML28 polyclonal antibodies with high titer and specificity are successfully prepared. These antibodies provide an useful experimental tool to profoundly research the physiological significance and biological function of the CML28 gene.

Objective To develop a batch process method for kinematics data of mass population based on MATLAB. Methods Based on MATLAB, the original coordinate data of markers from motion capture system were first batch-read with interpolation processing for eliminating the error points. The body-fixed base of contiguous rigid body attached on human body was then constructed as the reference base and body-fixed base of relative joint kinematics computing. The flexion/extension, abduction/adduction, internal and external rotation angular displacement, angular velocity and angular acceleration of joints were obtained based on the rigid body kinematics, the basic description of rigid body posture and the direction cosine matrix. Results Taking climbing upstairs and squatting as samples, the joint kinematics of lower extremity were analyzed and calculated by the batch process method for kinematics data of mass population based on MATLAB to prove the effectiveness and accuracy of the method. Conclusions The batch process method for kinematics data of mass population based on MATLAB was proved to be effective and accurate, and can be provided as a statistical analysis tool for anthropometry, human engineering, etc.
RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of different magnitudes of tensile strain on human osteoblasts differentiation.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>According to the strain amplification mechanism at cellular level and a data calculated by finite element analysis, the cellular level strain of 0.8%, 1.6%, 2.4% and 3.2% was respectively applied to human osteoblasts for 48 h at a frequency of 1 Hz. Alkaline phosphatase activity and the expression of osteoblast-related genes were detected by Semi-Quantitative RT-PCR and densitometric analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Alkaline phosphatase activity significantly increased at 0.8% and 1.6%. The level of osteocalcin mRNA increased at 2.4% and 3.2%. Cbfa1/Runx2 gene expression only increased at 3.2%. Comparing to static control, mRNA level of type I collagen increased at every magnitude. The mRNA level decreased at 0.8% and increased at 3.2% when compared to the group with 1.6% elongation.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Higher magnitudes of strain enhance expression of osteocalcin, type I collagen gene and Cbfa1/Runx2 in human osteoblasts, but lost the ability to increase ALP activity which is remained by lower magnitudes of strain. Type I collagen gene expression increases in a strain magnitude dependent manner.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To compare the efficacy of bicyclol tablets on patients infected with hepatitis B virus between genotype B and C.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>70 patients with chronic viral hepatitis B were selected. The patients divide into two groups: HBV genotypes B (26 cases) and HBV genotypes C (other 44 cases). All patients received bicyclol tablets orally 150 mg daily (50mg, tid, po) for 24 weeks. The efficacy were observed after 12 weeks and 24 weeks.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>After treatment for 24 weeks, the serum aminotransferase were decreased obviously, and HBV DNA levels turn to be negative with 19.2 percent (genotype B group) and 15.9 percent (genotype C group), respectively. The difference was not statistically significant between HBV genotype B and C.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Bicyclol not only has hepatoprotective activity but also inhibited virus replication in patients infected with HBV. The difference of the response to bicyclol therapy between HBV genotypes B and C was not statistically significant.</p>
