ABSTRACT
The opening of universities and colleges has been postponed due to the outbreak of COVID-19. In order to fully guarantee the normal teaching order and achieve the goal of "classes suspended but teaching and learning continues", Central South University has adopted online teaching in the spring semester of 2020. The Geriatrics teaching team of Xiangya Hospital have actively responded to the school's call and carried out online teaching course. This paper summarizes the experience in the preliminary organization, process implementation, education management and teaching evaluation of the Geriatrics online course in order to provide reference for the teaching reform of this course.

ABSTRACT
Syncope is a clinical symptom for many kinds of diseases.The reasons for some syncope are still not clear even after a comprehensive and systematic examination,known as unexplained syncope.The clinical data of one patient with recurrent syncope,who had received the implanted loop recorder (ILR) in Xiangya Hospital,Central South University,were retrospectively analyzed.The instrument recorded the first syncope at a time of recurrence for the sustained ventricular tachycardia in 704 days after ILR.The patient was thus diagnosed as arrhythmic syncope and received an operation with implantable cardioverter defibrillator.The ILR is a new type of examination device for patients suffering from syncope with suspected cardiac rhythm due to its long monitoring time,low infection rate and high safety.It possesses high clinical value in the diagnosis of patients with arrhythmic syncope.
ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) fingerprint of wuzi yanzong pills. Methods HPLC was performed on Agilent Extend C18 column (250 mmí4. 6 mm,5 μm) with a gradient elution system using acetonitrile:methanol (101)-0. 4% phosphoric acid as the mobile phase. The column temperature was set at 30 ℃ and the flow rate was 1. 0 mL·min-1 . The eluate was detected at the wavelength of 254 nm. Chromatographic peaks were identified by LC-MS method. Results Nine common peaks in wuzi yanzong pill samples were identified by comparing their LC-MS data with those of reference compounds and related reference reports. The HPLC fingerprint of wuzi yanzong pills was finally developed based on the analysis of sixteen batches of samples and their similarities were above 0. 93. Conclusion This method has high precision,stability and repeatability. This study could be used for overall quality assessment of wuzi yanzong pills.
ABSTRACT
Artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) are recommended to be the most effective therapies for the first-line treatment of uncomplicated falciparum malaria. However, artemisinin is often in short supply and unaffordable to most malaria patients, which limits the wide use of ACTs. Production of amorpha-4,11-diene, an artemisinin precursor, was investigated by engineering a heterologous isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway in Escherichia coli. The production of amorpha-4,11-diene was achieved by expression of a synthetic amorpha-4,11-diene synthase gene in Escherichia coli DHGT7 and further improved by about 13.3 fold through introducing the mevalonate pathway from Enterococcus faecalis. After eliminating three pathway bottlenecks including amorpha-4,11-diene synthase, HMG-CoA reducase and mevalonate kinase by optimizing the metabolic flux, the yield of amorpha-4,11-diene was increased by nearly 7.2 fold and reached at 235 mg/L in shaking flask culture. In conclusion, an engineered Escherichia coli was constructed for high-level production of amorpha-4,11-diene.

Objective To investigate the separation of extracellular polysaccharide from Porphyridium cruentum and its anti-HBV activity in vitro.Methods The extracellular polysaccharide(EP) of Porphyridium cruentum was extracted and isolated from the culture medium.HBeAg was assayed by ELISA and MTT methods.Results Element analysis showed that the extracellular polysaccharide contained N 0.82%,C 32.91%,H 6.19% and amino acid(2.49%).The IR and UV spectrum of EP determination showed typical absorption curve of polysaccharide,pyranglycoside linkage,sulfate ester.EP had a significant inhibition to HBeAg excretion with low toxicity on the cells and a better therapeutic index(TI).Conclusion The results suggested that EP has inhibitory effect on the hepatitis B virus in vitro.
ABSTRACT
The growth of P. cruentum when added organic carbon source, organic nitrogen source and group B vitamin into medium were investigated in the present work. Results showed that glucose promoted growth rate observably. When addedZ% (W/V)glucose into the medium, the growth rate was doubled and biomass increased 92.6%to that of control after incubated 10 days . organic nitrogen source restrained the growth or harmed to P. cruentum. Vitamin Be and B12 also promoted the growth rate.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the hypoglycemic and antioxidation effects of the red alga Porphyridium cruentum in diabetic mice induced by alloxan. Methods The diabetic models were established by intravenous administration of alloxan 70 mg?kg~(-1).Then the diabetic mice randomly were divided into four groups, Among them ,two groups were given ig the algal biomass 600,1200mg?kg~(-1) ,respectively. After 18 days, the contents of blood glucose, plasma lipids and the activities of SOD were detected. Results Compared with the diabetic model, the algal biomass 600,1200mg?kg~(-1) could significantly decrease the blood glucose.A trend towards lower plasma triglyceride level was observed in test groups. In addition the activity of plasma SOD was significantly enhanced in high dose group. Conclusion Porphyridium cruentum could reduce the level of blood glucose and effectively enhance the ability of antioxidation in the diabetic mice induced by alloxan.
