ABSTRACT
The fcl gene encodes GDP-fucose synthase, which catalyzes two-step differential isomerase and reductase reactions in the synthesis of GDP-L-fucose from GDP-D-mannose. It also participates in the biosynthesis of amino sugar and ribose sugar, and is one of the key enzymes to regulate the metabolism of sugar and nucleotides in organisms. The presence of fcl gene in Saccharopolyspora pogona was found through sequencing result of genome. The mutant S. pogona-fcl and S. pogona-Δfcl were constructed by gene engineering technology. The results showed that the gene had an effects on growth and development, protein expression and transcriptional level, insecticidal activity, and biosynthesis of butenyl-spinosyn of Saccharopolyspora pogona. The results of HPLC analysis showed that the yield of butenyl-spinosyn in S. pogona-Δfcl was 130% compared with that in S. pogona, which reduced by 25% in S. pogona-fcl. The results of determination of insecticidal activity showed that S. pogona-Δfcl had a stronger insecticidal activity against Helicoverpa armigera than that of S. pogona, while the S. pogona-fcl had a lower insecticidal activity against Helicoverpa armigera compared with S. pogona. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to observe the morphology of the mycelia. It was found that the surface of the S. pogona-Δfcl was wrinkled, and the mycelium showed a short rod shape. There was no significant difference in mycelial morphology between S. pogona-fcl and S. pogona. Aboved all showed that deletion of fcl gene in S. pogona hindered the growth and development of mycelia, but was beneficial to increase the biosynthesis of butenyl-spinosyn and improve insecticidal activity. Whereas the fcl gene over-expression was not conducive to the biosynthesis of butenyl-spinosyn and reduced their insecticidal activity. SDS-PAGE results showed that the difference of protein expression among the three strains was most obvious at 96 hours, which was identified by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction, the results showed that there were significant differences of related genes in transcriptional levels among the three strains. Based on the results of the study, a network metabolic control map was constructed to analyze the effect of fcl gene on growth and the regulation pathway of butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis, which provided an experimental basis for revealing the regulation mechanism of butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis and related follow-up studies.

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:Hip prosthesis needs to meet the good structural compatibility with femoral bone marrow cavity and the biomechanical properties of the original bone tissue. However, the difference of individual anatomical characteristics and the stress concentration in the local area after replacement directly affect postoperative combination of femoral prosthesis stem, force flow transfer and femoral reconstruction, and finaly result in aseptic loosening of hip joint in some patients. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the biomechanical characteristics of modified biotype self-locking hip prosthesis by the method of finite element analysis, and to provide the reference for the application of self-locking hip prosthesis in hip replacement. METHODS:Experimental design contained traditional biotype hip joint prosthesis group and self-locking hip joint prosthesis group. In accordance with the finite element models of self-locking hip prosthesis, 28 kinds of screw fixation were established. Three-dimensional models were generated in the Minics system. After the optimization of prosthesis, prosthesis was designed. In the Solidworks software, the femur was re-positioned and set for contacting set in Ansys to analyze the stress distribution and displacement distribution of the femoral-prosthesis-screw by Ansys. We compared the peak of stress and displacement of the femur and prosthesis, and analyzed the biomechanical stability of prosthesis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) By using the Ansys finite element method, we analyzed the stress and displacement distribution of the femoral-prosthesis-screw. The minimum stress peak value of the femur was 15.698 MPa. The minimum stress peak value of prosthesis was 45.491 MPa. The minimum stress peak value of screw was 8.359 MPa. The minimum displacement peak value of femur was 1.125 3 mm. The minimum displacement peak value of prosthesis was 1.039 6 mm. The minimum displacement peak value of screw was 0.566 4 mm. (2) Compared with the traditional biotype hip joint prosthesis group, in 28 kinds of self-locking hip joint prostheses, the stress was minimum in the group E. The displacement was minimum in groups A-F. Regarding comprehensive stress and displacement, groups A-F were the best combination. The maximum stress of femoral-prosthesis-screw was 18.936, 59.494 and 12.382 MPa. The maximum displacement of femoral-prosthesis-screw was 1.125 3, 1.039 6 and 0.626 3 mm. (3) These findings indicated that the stress and displacement parameters of groups A-F was the best parameter combination in 28 kinds of self-locking hip joint prostheses, and it is the recommended index of researching and developing self-locking hip prosthesis.
ABSTRACT
[Objective] To evaluate the effect of fast rehabilitation nursing pathway in patients after artificial hip replacement.[Methods] 86 patients underwent artificial hip replacement were randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group with 43 cases in each group.The control group received routine care,while the experimental group was given fast rehabilitation nursing pathway.Anxiety and pain at 48h after operation were evaluated,and hip joint function(Harris score)was evaluated six months after operation.[Results] Compared with the control group,anxiety and pain score at 48h after operation decreased markedly,and Harris score six months after operation increased significantly.[Conclusions] Fast rehabilitation nursing pathway can reduce both the short-term and long-term efficacy of patients after artificial hip replacement.
