RESUMEN
Objective To explore the rehabilitation needs of people with disabilities and the related factors,so as to provide a scien-tific basis for the rehabilitation policy-making for people with disabilities. Methods From June,2014 to July,2015,based on the national special survey of basic services and needs of people with disabilities in Jiangsu,China,this paper clarified the factors related with the rehabilitation needs of the disabled into the individual characteristics, economic characteristics, environmental characteristics and so on by the de-scriptive statistics method. The Logit model was established to explore the factors related with rehabilitation needs. Results In Jiangsu,43% people with disabilities aged 16 and above had rehabilitation needs.Contingency table analysis and Chi square test showed that individual characteristics,economic characteristics and environmental character-istics had significant impact on the rehabilitation needs of the disabled.Multiple regression analysis showed that all the 18 variables were the significant related factors. Conclusion In order to meet the rehabilitation needs of the disabled, the refined and precise rehabilitation program should be designed in line with the different characteristics of the disabled.Through the effective docking of sup-plies and needs,we can provide accurate rehabilitation services for the disabled.
RESUMEN
The roots of Glycyrrhiza uralensis are widely used in Chinese medicine for their action of clearing heat, detoxicating, relieving cough, dispelling sputum and tonifying spleen and stomach. The reason why Glycyrrhiza uralensis has potent and significant actions is that it contains various active secondary metabolites, especially glycyrrhizic acid. In the present study, we cloned the cDNA coding 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutary CoA reductase (HMGR) involved in glycyrrhizic acid biosynthesis in Glycyrrhiza uralensis. The corresponding cDNA was expressed in Escherichia coli as fusion proteins. Recombinant HMGR exhibited catalysis activity in reduction of HMG-CoA to mevalonic acid (MVA) just as HMGR isolated from other species. Because HMGR gene is very important in the biosynthesis of glycyrrhizic acid in Glycyrrhiza uralensis, this work is significant for further studies concerned with strengthening the efficacy of Glycyrrhiza uralensis by means of increasing glycyrrhizic acid content and exploring the biosynthesis of glycyrrhizic acid in vitro.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyse the effect of expression proteins containing different escherichia coli of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutary-coenzyme A reductase(HMGR) genic mutation on the conversion efficiency of MVA with GC-MS method, in order to lay a foundation for revealing the function of HMGR gene polymorphism of Glycyrrhiza uralensis in the production of high-quality G. uralensis medicines.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The expression carrier was established from four HMGR genic mutation types cloned from G. uralensis and transformed into Escherichia coli BL21. The protein was induced to express, detected and purified. The purified protein was adopted for in vitro enzymatic reaction. TLC and GC-MS were used for qualitative and quantitative analysis on reaction products.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The catalytic activity of L/V genotype(-HSL and -HSV) was similar, and so was the catalytic activity of the genotype with GA insertion (GALLV and GALSV), but the catalytic activity of the latter was around 2 times higher than that of the former.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The functional gene polymorphism of G. uralensis may be the molecular foundation for the production of high-quality G. uralensi medicines.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To reveal the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutary-coenzyme A reductase (HMGR) gene polymorphism of Glycyrrhiza uralensis, and the correlation between HMGR gene polymorphism and the content of glycyrrhizic acid.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Liquorice plants containing different content of glycyrrhizic acid were used as materials. RT-PCR was used to amplify their HMGR gene sequences, which were connected with vector pMD19-T for clone sequencing. Multiple alignments were performed to analyse HMGR gene polymorphism of G. uralensis. Then the correlation between HMGR gene polymorphism and the content of glycyrrhizic acid was revealed.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>HMGR gene sequences polymorphism included codon mutation, base substitution mutation, copy number polymorphism and allele heterozygosity. There were 4 types of mutations in HMGR gene coding amino acid sequences, namely -HSL, -HSV, GALLV, GALSV. Among them, -HSV type was common in liquorice plants, -HSL type only existed in liquorice plants with low content of glycyrrhizic acid, and GALSV type only existed in liquorice plants with high content of glycyrrhizic acid.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>HMGR gene sequences of G. uralensis are highly polymorphic and related to the content of glycyrrhizic acid.</p>
