Objective:To analyze the value of shear wave velocity (SWV) combined with thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) in the diagnosis of hyperthyroidism.Methods:Thirty-five patients with hyperthyroidism who were treated and confirmed in the Fuyang Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from December 2017 to September 2019 were selected as hyperthyroidism group, and 30 cases of normal health check-up patients in the outpatient department were selected as control group. All of the patients and medical persons were checked by conventional two-dimensional ultrasound and SWV, and the SWV and serum TSH, thyrotrophin receptor antibody(TRAb), thyroglobulin antibody (TGAb), thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) expression levels of two groups were tested and compared. The correlation relationship in SWV value and serum TSH, TRAb, TGAb, TPOAb levels of hyperthyroidism patients was analyzed by Pearson methods. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) method was used to analyze the value of SWV, serum TSH and SWV combined with serum in diagnosis of hyperthyroidism.Results:The SWV values of upper pole, middle pole and lower pole in the hyperthyroidism group had no significant differences ( P>0.05). The SWV values of upper hole, middle pole and lower pole of the left and right lobe of thyroid in the hyperthyroidism group were significantly higher than those in the control group [left lobe: (2.41 ± 0.34) m/s vs. (2.07 ± 0.28) m/s, (2.44 ± 0.39) m/s vs. (2.08 ± 0.25) m/s, (2.46 ± 0.43) m/s vs. (2.04 ± 0.30) m/s; right lobe: (2.47 ± 0.42) m/s vs.(2.01 ± 0.25) m/s, (2.41 ± 0.40) m/s vs. (1.95 ± 0.23) m/s, (2.43 ± 0.35) m/s vs. (2.06 ± 0.24) m/s] ( P<0.01). The serum TSH level in the hyperthyroidism group were significantly lower than that in the control group [(0.05 ± 0.03) kU/L vs. (2.74 ± 1.17) kU/L], while serum TRAb, TGAb and TPOAb levels were significantly higher than those in the control group [(15.82 ± 5.54) U/L vs. (0.55 ± 0.13) U/L, (290.63 ± 145.03) kU/L vs. (25.63 ± 7.12) kU/L, (627.17 ± 250.33) kU/L vs. (34.32 ± 5.95) kU/L], and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01). In the hyperthyroidism group, the SWV was negatively correlated with serum TSH ( r=- 0.862, P<0.05), but positively correlated with serum TRAb, TGAb and TPOAb ( r=0.763, 0.837, 0.804, P<0.05). The area under curve(AUC), sensitivity and specificity of combined diagnosis of hyperthyroidism with SWV value and serum TSH were 0.936, 94.29% and 91.43%, which was better than that of SWV (0.803, 80.00%, 74.29%) and serum TSH (0.842, 82.86%, 77.14%). Conclusions:SWV combined with TSH has a high clinical value in the diagnosis of hyperthyroidism.

Human acute premyeloid leukemia cell cDNA expression library was constructed to screen acute premyeloid leukemia tumor antigen. Total RNA and purified mRNA were extracted from human premyeloid cell line NB4. First and second strands of cDNA were synthesized by reverse transcription. After blunting, the cDNA fragments were ligated with EcoR I adapters. Then the cDNAs were digested with Xho I, and less than 400 bp cDNA fragment was removed by Sephacryl-S400 spin column, the remaining were ligated with lambdaZAP vector. The recombinants were packaged in vitro, and a small portion of packaged phage was used to infect E. coli XL1-Blue-MRF' for titration. The recombinants were examined by color selection. In order to evaluate the size of cDNA inserts and the diversity of library, the pBK-CMV phagemid was excised from the ZAP express vector by using ExAssist helper phage with XLOLR strain, and then the pBK-CMV phagemid was digested by Xho I and EcoR I. The results showed that the NB4 cell line cDNA library consisting of 1.65 x 10(6) recombinant bacteriophages was constructed with the recombinant ratio of 99.6%. The average length of the recombinant exogenous inserts was about 1.7 kb. It was concluded that the constructed cDNA library are deserved to screen target clones.

Objective Discoidin domain receptor 2 is a kind of receptor tyrosine kinases, which was found to be over-expressed in synovial fibroblasts in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The present study was to construct and express wild type (FLDDR2), Fc chimera (FcDDR2) and truncated form of mouse discoidin domain receptor 2 (ttDDR2) for further study. Methods Full-length, truncated form of mouse DDR2 were amplified by RT-PCR. A chimera form of mouse DDR2 was constructed by replacing part of the extracellular domain with Fc fragment of human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1). Eukaryotic expression vectors of the different forms of mouse DDR2 were constructed by subcloning the PCR products into pcDNA3.1(+) or pMKIT-Neo. Then COS-7 cells were transient transfected with the eukaryotic expression vectors of full-length (FLDDR2), truncated (ttDDR2) and chimeric form of mouse DDR2 (FcDDR2). Successful transfection and expression was confirmed by Western blot(WB) and Immunoprecipitation (IP)/WB. With or without stimulation with soluble type I collagen for 3h, phosphorylation level of transfected cells were detected by IP/WB. Eukaryotic expression vectors of full-length, truncated form and chimeric forms of mouse DDR2 were successfully constructed and confirmed by sequencing. After transient transfection, the expression of these three forms in the respectively transfected cells was observed by Western blot. Results The result of IP/WB suggested that the chimeric form of mouse DDR2(FcDDR2) could be properly expressed in the COS-7 cells. Under the condition of collagen, decreased tyrosine phosphorylation of FLDDR2 was detected in the COS-7 cells that were cotransfected with ttDDR2 and FLDDR2, comparing with that in COS-7 cells transected with only FLDDR2. There was no obvious difference in phosphorylation level between FcDDR2 without collagen stimulation and FLDDR2 with the collagen stimulation. Conclusion Three different forms of mouse DDR2 were successfully constructed. FcDDR2 could be an activator for its auto-phosphorylation. And ttDDR2 could be a partially negative competitor.
