Objective To observe the effects and mechanism of ischemic postconditioning(IPo) on alleviating injuries of small intestine and remote organs induced by intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (IR).Methods A total of 48 rabbits were divided randomly into three groups(n =16 in each):the Sham group,the IR group and the IPo group.After 2 hours of reperfusion,arterial and venous blood and tissues of intestine,liver and lung were harvested.The levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6 and IL-10 in arterial blood and levels of ALT,AST,BUN,Cr,LDH,CK-MB activity and endotoxin in venous blood were tested.MDA, CAT,SOD and MPO levels in serum,small intestine,liver and lung were also measured.HE staining was performed for observation of injured intestinal mucosa.Bacterial translocation rate was calculated after bac-teria culture.Results Compared with the IR group,MDA and MPO levels in serum,small intestine,liver and lung decreased in the IPo group,while CAT and SOD levels increased obviously.Compared with the IR group,ALT,AST,LDH,CK-MB and BUN levels in the venous blood,and TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6 and endotox-in levels in arterial blood were all decreased.IL-10 increased and the intestinal mucosal injury score de-creased obviously.Conclusion Ischemic post conditioning can decrease the damage of intestinal mucosa, reduce endotoxin translocation,promote activation of anti-inflammatory cytokines,inhibit excessive release of inflammatory mediators,enhance the antioxidant capacity of intestine and remote organs,reduce injuries to the small intestine and remote organs.

Lung opportunistic infections are most common pulmonary complications in patients with advanced AIDS .A variety of pathogens can cause lung infections .Lung CT findings show the complexity and diversity for these complications .Analysis of CT fea-tures of pulmonary infection caused by different pathogens has an important clinical significance on strengthening the awareness of AIDS complicated with pulmonary opportunistic infection and improving the clinical treatment effect .

The finding Pup-proteasome system reveals a novel mechanism of protein degradation in prokaryotes ,which is expected to become a new target of treatment of anti-TB drugs . Here ,we summarize the progress on the Pup-proteasome system in Mycobacterium tuberculosis .

Objective: Pemetrexed (PEM) is a multi-targeted chemotherapeutic agent for antifolate drugs. PEM has become the standard agent for the second-line treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study aims to review and analyze the clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of PEM combined with carboplatin with respect to NSCLC treatment. Methods: A total of 40 patients suffering from NSCLC were selected and confirmed by pathology. On the first day of treatment, the conventional 500 mg/m2 dose of pemetrexed disodium was infused intravenously. On the second day, a combined therapy with carboplatin was conducted based on the conventional dose for a 21-day cycle with at least two cycles for each patient. The therapeutic efficacy and adverse reactions were evaluated and were compared with the proposed regimen of gemcitabine (GEM) combined with carboplatin. Results: After two cycles of the treatment, the curative effects of the PEM and GEM groups were 50% and 45%, respectively. The main adverse reactions are bone marrow suppression and gastrointestinal reactions. The incidence rates of bone marrow suppression, gastrointestinal reactions, amisulpride/AST, urea nitrogen, rash, and hair loss were obviously lower in the PEM group than in the GEM group. Statistically significant differences in adverse reaction were found between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion: The use of the combination regimen of PEM with carboplatin showed significantly more clinical effects and less adverse reactions for NSCLC treatment.

Ample evidences have showed that the failure of early regeneration of the central nervous system(CNS) in adult mammals is mainly due to the growth inhibitory factor.Efforts have been made to promote neuron regeneration and neurological function recovery by damaging myelin and removing myelin-associated inhibitors.At present,the Nogo protein associated drugs and gene therapy have become a novel effective way to promote axon regeneration after CNS injury;here we reviews the recent progress on the related issues.

Objective To study the dynamic changes of DNA content of the fibroblasts in narrow pedicle subdermal vascular network flap (SVNP) during their surviving. Methods Eighteen pieces of surviving skin in pig back with size of 16 cm?8 cm and pedicle wideness of 4 cm were stained with acridine orange, and their DNA contents were measured with the adherent cell analysis and sorting cytometer 570. The tissue samples were taken at 3, 4 ,5 ,and 7 days after operation from different parts of the flap.Results The DNA content of fibroblast in the proximal part of the flap was slightly changed, those in the middle portion increased from 3rd to 5th day and became normal at 7th day, and in the distal portion progressively increased after operation. The results suggested that the transitional part of the flap and skin graft in the middle portion was most active in function and metabolism, and well survived, but the distal portion of the graft was poor in surviving and had a long repairing period. These indicated that local tissue hypoxia stimulated proliferation of fibroblasts and synthesis of the DNA in a short time, but as time wert by, the proliferative speed and DNA synthesis in the individual cell were heterogeneous, probably because of the degeneration or necrosis of some epidermal cells in the graft. Conclusion The wideness and length of the pedicle as well as its vascular anastomoses should be readjusted to promote the blood circulation of the distal skin graft tissues.

Inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)is a kind of chronic and non-specific inflammatory disease comprising Crohn’s disease(CD)and ulcerative colitis(UC),the etiology has not yet been clarified. Endothelin-1(ET-1)is an active polypeptide composed of 21 amino acid residues,which can constrict blood vessels by activating voltage-dependent Ca2 + channels in vascular smooth muscle cells. Studies have shown that ET-1 plays an important role in the pathogenesis of IBD. This article reviewed the progress in study on ET-1 in the pathogenesis of IBD.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors in acidity test in the quality standard of lactasin. Methods:The acid-ity was tested under the conditions of milk from different sources, various inoculation amount and preservation conditions. Results:The acidity was not stable under the conditions of milk with different brands and batches. The current quality standard could not truly reflect the influence of preservation conditions on the sample quality. Conclusion:The unreliable acidity test results are caused by the quality problem of milk culture media and the current unreasonable standard method.
