Objective To establish an in vitro model of primnary osteoblasts fluorosis and to detect the influences of different doses of fluorosis on promoter methylation,transcription and expression of p16,then study the epigenetic effects of p16 gene on skeletal fluorosis.Methods Osteoblasts were isolated from Sprague-Dawley neonatal rats by enzyme digestion,and identified by morphology,alkaline phosphatasc staining and alizarin red staining.Osteoblast were treated with 0 (control group),200,400,800 and 1 600 μmol/L NaF for 72 h.The pl6 gene promoter region was amplified in the transcription initiation site-88-+ 143 region by bisulfatesequencing polymerase chain reaction (BSP).The mRNA transcription and the protein expression of p16 were detected by real-time quantitative PCR and Western blotting.Results Among the groups of osteohlasts treated with 200,400,800,1 600 μmol/L NaF,the positive rates of DNA methylation of promoter region in p16 gene of osteoblasts were 5.88％ (10/170),12.94％ (22/170),17.65％ (30/170) and 33.53％ (57/170),respectively.No DNA methylation was observed in the control group.There were significant differences between the control group and the NaF-treated osteoblasts groups (x2 =92.87,P ＜ 0.05).Average levels of p16 mRNA were 1.050 ± 0.073,0.869 ±0.037,1.065 ± 0.118 and 0.786 ± 0.148 in 200,400,800 and 1 600 μmol/L NaF-treated osteoblasts groups,compared with the control group (1.110 ± 0.315),there were significant differences among groups (all P ＜ 0.05) and 1 600 μmol/L NaF-treated osteoblasts group was much lower than other groups (P ＜ 0.05).Average levels of p16protein were 1.190 ± 0.050,1.214 ± 0.058,1.122 ± 0.123 and 0.320 ± 0.074 in 200,400,800 and 1 600 μmol/LNaF-treated osteoblasts groups,compared with the control group (1.115 ± 0.057),there were significant differences among groups (all P ＜ 0.05) and 1 600 μmol/L group was much lower than other groups.Conclusion NaF can cause hypermethylation in the promoter region of p16 gene,then suppress the expression of mRNA and protein,which might be one of the important mechanisms of cell proliferation change and cell cycle disorder in skeletal fluorosis.

Objective To investigate the value of N-termind pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-pro-BNP)in differential diagnosis of dyspnea in emergency department, and to investigate the rapid diagnosis cutoff of dyspnea due to acute congestive heart failure. Methods Ninety. one cases of dyspnea in emergency department recruited from January to June ,2008 were divided into two groups: acute cardiac dyspnea group and none acute cardiac dyspnea group. To evaluate the value of different parameters in differential diagnosis of dyspnea in emergency department and analysis the area under the receiver-operating characteristic of different parameters for the diagnosis of acute cardiac dyspnea. To achieve the best cutoff of different parameters for the diagnosis of dyspnea due to acute congestive heart failure finally. Results Among two groups, NT-pro-BNP (acute cardiac dyspnea vs. none acute cardiac dyspnea,6203.50 ng/L vs. 1410.00 ng/L,P ＜ 0.01), Troponin Ⅰ (acute cardiac dyspnea vs. none acute cardiac dyspnea,0.12 μg/L vs. 0.03 μg/L,P ＜0.01) ,left ventricular ejection fraction(acute cardiac dyspnea vs. none acute cardiac dyspnea,46.25% vs. 65.60%, P ＜ 0.01), left atrial diameter (acute cardiac dyspnea vs. none acute cardiac dyspnea,42.75 mm vs. 36.00 mm,P ＜0.01) had significant difference. NT-pro-BNP at cutoff of ≥3715 ng/L was highly sensitive and specific for the diagnosis of acute cardiac dyspnea. Receiver-operating characteristic analyses demonstrated that NT-pro-BNP and left ventricular ejection fraction was the best diagnostic indices of acute cardiac dyspnea. The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve of Nt-pro-BNP was 0.828 ± 0.045 (P ＜ 0.01),and left ventricular ejection fraction was 0.829 ± 0.049 (P ＜ 0.01). Correlation analysis showed that NT-pro-BNP was correlated with left ventricular ejection fraction (P ＜ 0.01). The combined test of NT-pro-BNP and left ventricular ejection fraction was performed. Specificity increased to 96.50%, total consistent rate increased to 83.50% ,positive predictive value increased to 91.30%, positive likelihood ratio 17.60, faulse diagnostic rate decreased to 3.50%. Conclusions NT-pro-BNP examination in emergency department was helpful to rapid differential diagnosis of dyspnea. It helped to differentiate the patients with acute congestive heart failure and none acute congestive heart failure causes of dyspnea.

In order to understand the resistance against common antibiotics in clinic and macrolide antibiotic-resistant mechanism of Streptococcus pneumoniae (S.pneumoniae) isolates in Zhejiang area,both K-B slip method and E-test were applied to determine the sensitivity of 138 S.pneumoniae isolates to nine antibiotics,and the ermB and mefE genes in those isolates which associated with macrolide antibiotics-resistance closely were detected by PCR.Subsequently,correlation among ermB and mefE genes and the erythromycin resistance were analyzed.For these 138 S.pneumoniae isolates,93.5% (129/138) of the strains were resistant to erythromycin,but only 2.9%～4.3% strains were resistant to cefotaxim,cefuroxime,amoxicillin and levofloxacin.The positive rate of ermB gene in the isolates (91.3%,126/138) was significantly higher than that of mefE gene (33.3%,46/138) (P<0.05).Both of these two genes existed in 27.5 % (38/138) of the strains and all of the strains without ermB and mefE genes were sensitive to erythromycin.The erythromycin resistance rate (62.5%) of mefE gene positive strains was remarkably lower than that of the mefE&ermB gene positive strains (100%) and the ermB gene positive strains (97.7%) (P<0.05).All the data mentioned above demonstrated that erythromycin is not an appropriate antibiotic to treat the infectious diseases caused by S.pneumoniae.Moreover,ermB is the predominant erythromycin resistance gene in S.pneumoniae isolates and ermB gene could inspire stronger erythromycin resistance than mefE gene.

AIM: To investigate the effect of IL-10 on IL-1?-induced prostaglandin E 2(PGE 2) release and cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2) expression in human mesangial cells and to examine whether IL-10 has effect on the biological function of IL-1?.METHODS: The PGE 2 concentration in supernatants of HMC was measured by radioimmunoassay. The COX-2 mRNA and protein were measured by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. RESULTS: PGE 2 and COX-2 were significantly increased after treatment with IL-1?( P0.05 , respectively), while it inhibited IL-1?-elicited PGE 2 production, as well as COX-2 mRNA and protein expression in a concentration-dependent fashion. CONCLUSIONS: These results indicated that IL-10 depressed the IL-1?-induced release of PGE 2 and expression of COX-2. These data suggested that IL-10 could exert anti-inflammatory actions at several levels, not only by inhibiting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines but also by suppressing their biological function.

BACKGROUND:Olfactory bulb neurogenesis, transformation and maturation have been considered the hot topic. Olfactory bulb experience and nervous activity can influence olfactory bulb neurogenesis. However, no study reports that olfactory bulb functions can affect olfactory bulb neurogenesis in guinea pigs.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of unilateral olfactory functional deprivation on doublecortin, calbindin and parvalbumin expression in olfactory bulb of juvenile guinea pigs.
METHODS:Total y 24 guinea pigs were randomly divided into two groups, which were kil ed after establishing olfactory functional deprivation model through electric cautery injury at the left peripheral nostrils. At 3 and 6 weeks after modeling, the specimens were harvested. The expression change of doublecortin, calbindin and parvalbumin in two sides’ olfactory bulb of juvenile guinea pigs was detected by immunohistochemistry.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The number of doublecortin, calbindin and parvalbumin positive cells in olfactory bulb at the un-deprived side was significantly higher than that at the deprived side at 3 and 6 weeks (P<0.05). This finding indicates that olfactory neural activities can affect neurogenesis and transformation in guinea pigs.

Objective To assess the characteristics of different doses of cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury,further to understand mitochondrial dysfunction and its role in acute kidney injury (AKI).Methods Male C57BL/6J mice were first randomly divided into two groups:control group (n =6) and AKI group (n =12).Then,AKI group was subsequently divided into other two groups according to different dose of cisplatin (10 mg/kg or 20 mg/kg).AKI group received intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin.All mice were sacrificed after 72 h of injection.Renal biochemical function,renal pathological changes,renal injury markers,kidney mitochondrial function and structural changes were observed.Results (1) After 72 hours of injection,the AKI group performed significant kidney injury changes compared to control group,thereinto 20 mg/kg group was more serious than 10 mg/kg group.With the cisplatin dose increasing,renal function markers such as serum creatinine,urine protein gradually increased.(2)Kidney biopsy showed tubular structural damage,the formation of protein casts,kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) gradually increased(P ＜ 0.05).(3)Electron microscopy found tubular mitochondrial structural damage,mtDNA copy number decreased,the level of peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptor-gamma coactivator-1alpha (PGC-1α),ATP synthase β decreased(P ＜ 0.05),and Western blotting manifested cytochrome C was released from mitochondria to the cytoplasm.These data all exhibited significant difference between different groups(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Cisplatin induces acute kidney injury in dose-dependent manner.Mitochondrial dysfunction participates in kidney injury,and is also related to the kidney pathological damage.

Objective To screen and identify the predominant T-and B-cell (T-B) combined antigenic epitopes in outer membrane protein GroEL of Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori).Methods The entire groEL gene of H.pylori strain NCTC11637 was amplified by PCR,and then a prokaryotic expression system for groEL gene was constructed.The expressed target recombinant protein rGroEL was analyzed by SDSPAGE and purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography.Laser confocal microscopy was applied to determine the distribution of GroEL in H.pyloristrains of NCTC11637 and SS1.The outer membrane protein (OMP) samples were extracted from the two strains using Triton X-114 method.GroEL in OMP samples was detected by Western blot assay.Special bioinformatic softwares were used to predict T-B combined antigenic epitopes on GroEL molecule,and phage display systems for every T-B combined antigenic epitope were established.Western blot assay and ELISA were used to detect the immunoreactivity of recombinant T-B combined antigenic epitope-containing phage PⅢ proteins and artificially synthesized T-B combined antigenic epitope peptides,respectively.Results The groEL genes from H.pylori strains of NCTC11637 and SS1 showed 97.68％ ～99.63％ identities in their nucleotide and amino acid sequences.The established prokaryotic expression system could efficiently express soluble rGroEL.GroEL located on the outer membrane of H.pylori strains of NCTC11637 and SS1.Among the six major predicted T-B combined epitopes (GroEL168,GroEL258,GroEL288,GroEL365,GroEL396 and GroEL438),GroEL168 showed the strongest positive immunoblotting signal.The results of ELISA showed that the immunoreactivity of GroEL168 was also the strongest (P＜0.01),followed by GroEL258 and GroEL288 (P＜0.05).Conclusion GroEL is an outer membrane protein of H.pylori.GroEL168 being the predominant T-B combined antigenic epitope of GroEL can be used to develop multiple antigenic peptide vaccines of H.pylori.
