Objective To investigate the expression of basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) and proapoptotic gene Bax,Bcl-2 in amniochorion and their relationship with premature rupture of membranes(PROM).Methods Immunohistochemical stain was used to detect the expression of bFGF,Bax and Bcl-2 in amniochorion collected from 30 pregnant women with PROM and 30 normal pregnant women without PROM.Results The expression of bFGF and Bax were located in the plasma of all types of cells including trophoblast,epithelial,mesenchymal and fibroblast,but the expression of Bcl-2 was only observed in the chorionic syncytiotrophoblast;the positive average integral calculus oculus dehtor of bFGF in the PROM group was significantly lower than that of the normal group(0.051?0.012 vs 0.098?0.027,P0.05).Negative correlation was found between the bFGF and Bax expression in the PROM group(r=-0.616,P0.05). Conclusions The reduced expressions of bFGF and excessive apoptosis in the amnio-chorion play an important role in PROM.

Objective The gastrointestinal tract of neonate becomes colonized with microorganisms from environment and mother immediately after birth. Strong evidences suggested that early composition of the microflora in neonates play an important role for postnatal development of the immune system. This study was designed to investigate the effect of mode of delivery on the development of gut microflora and characteristics of the stool in breast-fed infants by molecular biology methods. Methods Sixty healthy breast-fed term infants were enrolled in the study(including vaginal delivery group and cesarean section delivery group,each group included 30 infants). Anthropometric measurements and stool study were done at 6-week,8-week,10-week,and 12-week. Fecal samples were subjected to quantitative fluorescence real-time polymerse chain reaction assays for the enumeration of lactobacili,bifidobacteria,and subtype of bifidobacteria(bifidobacterium longum and bifidobacterium breve). Results The numbers of lactobacilli and bifidobacterium longum species were less in cesarean delivery group than those in vaginal delivery group(P ＜ 0.05). Stool mean pH was lower in vaginal delivery group than that in cesarean section delivery group(P ＜ 0.05). There were no differences in stool characteristics and growth between two groups. Conclusions Cesarean section is associated with the decrease of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in breast-fed term infants.

Conclusions Fetal rat cerebral neuron apoptosis following intrauterine distress is associated with the action of endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondrium. Up-regulation of GRP78 induced by 2DG counteracts primary cellular damage caused by endoplasmic reticulum stress. 2DG plays a protective role for fetal rat cerebral neuron following intrauterine distress.

In this paper, the specific male sequeuce in paraffin section of various tissues with autolys is ofdifferent degrees was detected by polymerase chain reaction(PCR).The results shewed that PCR could be used for identifying sex in the tissues with low degrees ofautolysis; its positive rate was lower in high degrees with disappearance of nuclaic member and cell ou-tline,and often gave false negative results when the autolysis degree was high.

As early as the 20 th century, it has been observed that radiotherapy (RT), as a local therapy, can activate the adaptive immune system, resulting in spontaneous regression of tumors out of the radiation field, which is known as "abscopal effect". Although the occurrence of abscopal effect is still rare, with the gradual increase in the application of immunotherapy, more and more clinical cases of abscopal effect have been reported. Increasing attention has been paid to the therapeutic potential of RT in inducing systemic anti-tumor response. Especially, the combination of RT and immunotherapy enhances the research value of abscopal effect. However, its mechanism has not been fully elucidated, and the optimal timing, dose and fractionation of RT are also under study. How to classify the beneficiary groups is also a key issue. In this article, the history of abscopal effect, and the role of RT and immunotherapy in this phenomenon were briefly introduced, and the existing controversies in clinical application were illustrated, aiming to clarify the direction of current research and development and open a new chapter for tumor treatment in a short period of time.

Objective To test the effect of Undaria pinnatifida soluble dietary fiber on endothelial function in hyperlipidemic rats. Method Forty rats were divided into 4 groups(n=10) :control group,hyperlipidemic model group,low dose dietary fiber-treated group(5%) ,high dose dietary fiber-treated group(10%) . After treatment for 8 w. Endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation in isolated aortic rings,the content of plasma malondialdohyde(MDA) ,nitric oxide(NO) and endothelin-1(ET-1) were determined. The protein expression of endothelial NO synthase(eNOS) was measured by Western blotting. Results Undaria pinnatifida soluble dietary fiber treatment significantly decreased MDA and ET-1 level. It also significantly improved endothelial function and plasma NO level concomitantly with unregulation of the expression of eNOS protein. Conclusion In hyperlipidemic rats Undaria pinnatifida soluble dietary fiber could improve vascular endotheliual function,which might be explained by its action to decreasing plasma ET-1 level and increased NO production.

Objective To investigate the drug resistance of bacteria clinically isolated from Yuyao people's hospital and its relationship with antibiotic consumption, in order to provide basis for rational use of antibiotics in clinic.MethodsA total of 3178 strains of bacteria were detected in our hospital from the third quarter of 2015 to the second quarter of 2016.The drug resistance of bacteria, the consumption of antibacterial agents in each quarter, and their relationships were analyzed.ResultsThe major isolated bacteria was gram-negative bacteria, among which constituent ratio of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ranked the top 4.Gram-negative bacteria's resistance rates of several antibiotics were positively correlated with the utility rate of quinolones, and also had a different degree of positive correlation with the use of beta lactamase/inhibitor, aminoglycosides and carbapenems.Staphylococcus were the mainly gram positive bacteria, whose resistance rates to penicillin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin and erythromycin were positively correlated with the usage of the same type of antibiotics.ConclusionBacterial resistance rates are closely associated with the consumption of antimicrobials.Selecting antibacterial agents reasonably according to the results of drug susceptibility test is important to control the drug resistance of bacterial.

Objective To investigate the effect of butylphthalide (NBP) on H2S content and the expression of NR2B in the hippocampus of alcohol dependence rats. Methods A total of 84 SD male rats were randomly divided into 6 groups. Except for the normal group, other groups were subjected to alcohol solution with concentration of 6% ( V/V) for 28 d. Drug intervention began at the 14th day,and rats in the low,medium,high dose group were treated with NBP with a different concentration. Erden abstinence scoring was used to evaluate the rats withdrawal symptom. H2S content was measured in one side of hippocampus and CBS activity was tested in the other side of hippocampus. Hippocampus of 3 rats from each group was used to investigate NR2B mRNA level. Results Withdrawal symptom score ( 12.27 ± 1. 19),H2S content(30. 25 ±8.82), CBS activity (72. 44 ±7. 46) and NR2B mRNA expression( 19. 47 ±0. 86) in medium dose NBP group rats were lower than withdrawal symptom score(14.09 ±2.21) ,H2S content(44. 50 ±6. 65) , CBS activity(79. 06 ±4. 57) and NR2B mRNA expression (29. 13 ±1.39) in experimental control group (P<0.05). Withdrawal symptom score(12. 18 ±1.08) ,H2S content(33.00 ±5.38) ,CBS activity(67. 81 ±9. 37) and NR2B mRNA expression(23. 12 ± 1. 86) in high dose NBP group rats were lower than experimental control group (P < 0. 05). Conclusion NBP can reduce withdrawal symptoms of alcohol dependence rats,may be related to decreased expression of H2S/CBS system, and NR2B mRNA expression.
