Application of Virtual Experiment Technique in Molecular Biological Experiment Teaching / 昆明医科大学学报

Objective Set up virtual experimental teaching platform of medical molecular biology, and explore effective operating system of virtual experiment teaching. Methods 400 students of majored in clinical medicine in Kunming Medical University in Grade 2011 were randomly divided into the virtual experiment teaching group (n = 195 ) and the traditional experiment teaching group (n = 205 ). We realized the teaching effect by questionnaire survey, and analyzed the final exam results of two groups statistically. Results The experiment teaching way of virtual experiment has been widely accepted by students, and it could help students to understand and master experiment operations and theory knowledges.No statistical difference was found between two groups on the final exam. Conclusion Virtual experiment technology as a new teaching method has a lot of advantages, but it can't completely replace traditional experiments. We should use both the two kinds of teaching methods reasonally in the medical molecular biology experiment teaching.

Investigation and analysis on teaching status quo of medical genetics in Kunming Medical ;University / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective To improve the teaching quality of medical genetics. Methods A medi-cal genetics questionnaire survey was designed and conducted among 2012 grade undergraduates of Kunming Medical University. The results of the questionnaire were statistically analyzed by Kruskal-wallis test. Results The students felt that, there were differences in the importance and difficulty of teaching sections (Z=395.818,Z=117.786,P<0.001). The practical abilities were different after learn-ing (Z=139.364,P<0.001). Most of the students had strong demand for clinical practice and genetic counseling, there were differences in the degree of demand in students of different majors (Z=8.432, P=0.038). Conclusion Method of adjusting teaching content and method was proposed and adding clinical practice in the future was recommend to improve the teaching quality .

Practice and thoughts of case-based teaching in the teaching of medical biochemistry / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Medical biochemistry is a very important basic curricular in medicine teaching.But its theory is abstract,so it is difficult for teachers to teach.On the other hand,the students feel it hard to learn too,because they don't know how these theories are applied.We have applied case-based teaching in medical biochemistry teaching.These methods effectively improve students' enthusiasm to study and to train their scientific thinking in preliminary.Following this way we have explored a new way to elevate teaching qualities and search new teaching model and to further reform present medical biochemistry teaching model.

Effects of Silencing G6PD Expression on The Growth and Apoptosis in Human Skin Melanoma / 生物化学与生物物理进展

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) derives from the expression of the house-keeping gene G6PD. Recent studies have indicated that G6PD is related to tumor genesis, growth, clinical phenotype, therapy, and prognosis. To elucidate the relationship between G6PD and cancer, three siRNA sequences and one negative control sequence were designed based on the 3' noncoding region of the human G6PD gene. Two complementary single-strand DNA (sense and antisense) were designed and synthesized based on siRNA sequences. The DNA fragments were annealed and ligated to the GFP expression vector pRNAT-U6.2/Lenti. One siRNA with higher interference efficiency than the other two was found after siRNA plasmid transfecting human skin A375 melanoma cells. After lentivirus particle packaging and virus production, the A375 cells were infected, and the single cell clone was acquired and cultured to establish the stable cell strain. Western blotting showed that the endogenous G6PD in the stable A375 cell strain was 0.257 ? 0.074, which was 11.17% of G6PD expression (2.301 ? 0.286) in wild type A375 cells. The final siRNA interference efficiency in this stable cell strain was 88.83%. The G6PD activity of A375-G6PD?驻 was 21.53% of A375-WT. Further study showed that A375-G6PD△ doubling generation time prolonged, and its proliferation was greatly inhibited and the cloning efficiency lowered 25%(P

Synchronous Determination of Creatine Compounds, Adenine Nucleotides, Hypoxanthine and Inosine with HPLC / 昆明医科大学学报

Synchronous determination of creatine Compounds, adenine nucleotides, hypoxanthine and inosine with reversed—phase HPLC was studied. The distinct separation was achieved within 10 minutes at 210nm using radial—PAK C_(18) Cartridge column under an isocratic elution of 220mmol/L K_2HPO_4/KH_2PO_4, mmol/L TBA and 13% methanol. This method proved to be reproducible, simple and accurate.
