ABSTRACT
Medical microbiology experiment is faced with many problems in online teaching. This study adopts the teaching mode of online live broadcast + operation video + virtual experiment, and make up the operation gap to some extent through operation video and virtual experiment. The mode of assessment is subjective thinking question (closely following the operation process) + experiment design + literature review (focusing on the key technology or new technology of clinical assessment that cannot be carried out due to the limitation of conditions in traditional experiments, such as mass spectrometry, fluorescence quantitative PCR, and G-test), and it is helpful to understand students' mastery of teaching objectives, and the ability of comprehensive application and innovative thinking. The student questionnaire shows that most students hold a positive attitude towards the online experimental teaching mode, and the quality of students' homework shows that most students have a good learning effect.
ABSTRACT
Retinoblastoma binding protein 2 (RBP2), a newly found histone demethylase, is overexpressed in gastric cancer. We examined the upstream regulatory mechanism of RBP2 at the microRNA (miRNA) level and the role in gastric carcinogenesis. We used bioinformatics to predict that microRNA-212 (miR-212) might be a direct upstream regulator of RBP2 and verified the regulation in gastric epithelial-derived cell lines. Overexpression of miR-212 significantly inhibited the expression levels of RBP2, whereas knockdown of miR-212 promoted RBP2 expression. Furthermore, we identified the putative miR-212 targeting sequence in the RBP2 3' UTR by luciferase assay. MiR-212 inhibited the colony formation ability of cells by repressing RBP2 expression and increasing that of P21(CIP1) and P27(kip1), both critical in cell cycle arrest. In addition, the expression of RBP2 and miR-212 in tumor tissue and matched normal tissue from 18 patients further supported the results in vivo. MiR-212 directly regulates the expression of RBP2 and inhibits cell growth in gastric cancer, which may provide new clues to treatment.
