OBJECTIVE To observe the disinfection efficacy of nano-light catalytic air disinfector(Jian Bai Le disinfector) in ophthalmic outpatients operating room.METHODS The efficacy of disinfection of the disinfector in the operating room without and with staff was detected respectively.This efficacy of disinfection was compared with that of ultraviolet ray.RESULTS The average eliminated rate of natural bacteria in the air was 88.9% vs 89.7%,and the average bacterial colony number was 63.9 vs 75.0 CFU/m3,respectively,after disinfection by the disinfector or by ultraviolet ray without staff.When the device worked continuously with staff,Their average bacterial colony number was 26.6,92.2,150.0 and 155.3 CFU/m3,vs 150.2,166.7,355.1 and 738.4CFU/m3 in the period of 30,60,120 and 180 minutes after operation,respectively.CONCLUSIONS The bactericidal efficacy of disinfector is distinctly better than that of ultraviolet ray lamp.

AIM: To study the preventive and cure effects of the guizhi fuling pellet (GFP) on rat hysteromyoma modes. METHODS: Estradiol (0.2) mg per rat was administrated by subcutaneous injection once a day to establish rat hysteromyoma model. (0.8) (mg?kg~(-1)) adrenalin was administrated by subcutaneous injection to establish rat blood stasis model. RESULTS: GFP((1.08)-(4.32) (g?kg~(-1)))remarkably decreased uterus weight, restrained the excess proliferation of the smooth muscle of uterus, decreased the estradiol and progesterone in blood serum, restrained the platelet aggregation, and it significantly decreased the blood viscosity, prolonged blood coagulation time, kaolin partly theroboplastin time and prothrombin time of rats. CONCLUSION: GFP can restrain the formation of hysteromyoma, and the mechanism of GFP is related to decreasing the estrogen and progesterone, activating blood circulation to dissipate blood stasis.

OBJECTIVE:To establish fingerprint of Zhizi jinhua pills(ZZJHW)and analyze the relationship of it with in vitro antioxidant activity,in order to provide the basis for the quality control of them. METHODS:HPLC method was adopted. The sep-aration was performed on a Sinochrom ODS-BP C18(200 mm×4.6 mm,5 μm)column with mobile phase consisted of 0.2% acetic acid(containing 3 mmol/L sodium heptanesulfonate solution)-acetonitrile(gradient elution)at the detection wavelength of 254 nm and flow rate of 0.8 ml/min. The column temperature was controlled at 38 ℃,and injection volume was 10 μl. The“Chromato-graphic Fingerprint Similarity Evaluation System for TCM”(2012.130723 edition) issued by Chinese Pharmacopoeia Commission was used to evaluate the similarity of the 12 batches of ZZJHW using baicalin as reference peak so as to attribute the common peak of fingerprint. DPPH free radical scavenging assay was used to investigate the in vitro antioxidant activity of 12 batches of ZZJHW,and the relationship between its fingerprint and antioxidant activity was studied. RESULTS:The fingerprint of 12 batches of ZZJHW was established and the similarity between the fingerprint of ZZJHW with their reference fingerprint were all above 0.9 (except S1,S2,S3,S12). 30 common peaks were marked,all of which were assigned to the herbs. Antioxidant experiment result showed the differences in the antioxidant capacity among different batches of ZZJHW;spectrum effect relationship showed that 13 common peaks were positively related with oxidation activity and 17 common peaks negatively related with it;among known com-ponents,oxidation activity components were mainly from Lonicera japonica,Scutellaria baicalensis and Rheum palmatum. CON-CLUSIONS:The spectrum effect relationship of established fingerprint with its antioxidant activity can provide reference for the quality control of ZZJHW.

Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) provides a global assessment of the integrative exercise responses involving the pulmonary and cardiovascular systems by testing the gas exchange in airway. CPET is commonly used to evaluate the presence and severity of coronary ischemia, as well as exertional symptoms, heart rate and blood pressure responses and estimated aerobic capacity. CPET has become an important global clinical detection tool, while fewer related researches are carried out in China. The parameters, methods, exercise protocol, equipment, cardiopulmonary function evaluation and clinical application of CPET are introduced in this review.

IL-17 Receptor D (IL-17 RD) is a cytokine receptor that mediates IL-17 signaling and plays an important role in responding to the invasion of extracellular pathogens and many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. In this study we report the generation of a mouse monoclonal antibody against human IL-17 RD. The recombinant human IL-17RD extracellular domain (hIL-17RD-ECD) was produced in the baculovirus expression system and purified from culture medium of sf9 insect cells. The purified protein was used as a T-dependent antigen to immune Balb/C mice. B cells from the spleen of immunized mice were fused with murine cell SP2/0. Hybridoma cell lines were screened for the production of the monoclonal antibody against hIL-17-RD-ECD using ELISA. A hybridoma cell line 1F8 was found to have a high production of the antibody, which was further confirmed for the specificity by both western blot and ELISA analyses. The monoclonal antibody obtained from hybridoma 1F8 was characterized to be IgG1+Kappa subclass. This study provided a base for the further therapeutic application of the antibody on the autoimmune disease including rheumatoid arthritis.

Sef (similar expression to fgf genes) was identified as a feedback antagonist of FGF signaling in zerbrafish, mouse and human. Sefhas been reported to function in different ways, however the regulation of Sef stability remains unknown. The possible role of c-Cbl in the regulation of Sef protein degradation was investigated. Results from coimmunoprecipitation and immunostaining assays reveal that hSef colocalizes and interacts with c-Cbl. Data suggest that the interaction between hSef and c-Cbl results in the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of the hSef protein. It was proposed that c-Cbl may serve as a modulator to regulate Sef protein stability during FGF signal transduction.

BACKGROUNDOver-expression of RAB5A gene has been proved to be associated with neoplasia metastasis. This study is to explore the effect of RAB5A gene on invasion and metastasis of human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines.

METHODSConstituted basement membrane invasion technique, adhesion capability of tumor cell assay, the chemotactic migration of tumor cells assay, and gelatinases SDS-PAGE analysis method were used to detect the changes of invasive and metastatic capability of Anip973 (with high metastatic capability) and its parent AGZY83-a cell lines (with low metastatic capability).

RESULTSAfter AGZY83-a cells were transfected by PcDNA3.1-RAB5A plasmid, its invasion was significantly increased (t=24.36, P < 0.000 5); adhesion capability of cell was promoted (P < 0.05); the chemotactic migration of cells was higher than that of the parent lines (t=14.18, P < 0.000 5); and the activity of gelatinases secreted from transfected AGZY83-a was enhanced. The invasion of the transfected Anip973 cells with PcDNA3-AntiRAB5A was lower (t= 16.510 4, P < 0.002 5); adhesion capability of cell was decreased (P < 0.05); the chemotactic migration of cells was lower than that of the parent lines (t=6.062, P < 0.005); and the activity of gelatinases was obviously decreased.

CONCLUSIONSThis study in vitro indicates that over-expression of RAB5A genes plays an important role in tumor invasion and metastatic phenotype formation of human lung adenocarcinoma cells; and antisense RNA can interrupt the translation of RAB5A gene.
