Objective To investigate the effect of pvdQ(PA2385)gene on Pseudomonas aeruginosa swarming motility.Methods The plasmid pME6032 with pvdQ gene was constructed and identified,then transformed into Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 using the eleetroporation to build pvdQ-overexpression strain.The pME6032-PAO1 strain was constructed with the same method.The cloning plasmid pEX18Gm containing sacB was successfully used to construct unmarked deletion mutant of pvdQ gene and pvdQ mutant strain. Bacteria were inoculated in LB and were cultured overnight.The clones were measured for the diameter of the swarming zone.The statistical analysis was done using one-factor ANOVA.Results Strains of pvdQ-overexpression and pvdQ-mutant were successfully constructed and confirmed by polymerase chain reaction(PCR).The four strains were compared for the swarming motility by changes in diameter:PAO1(20.52±1.80)mm,pME6032-PAO1 strain(19.39±2.10)mm,pvdQ-overexpression strain(51.20±2.16)mm,pvdQ-mutant strain(3.30±0.55)mm.The diameter of pME6032-PAO1 strain was not significantly different from that of wild strain PAO1(t=-0.1493,P>0.05).However,the diameter of pvdQ(Q-mutant strain was significantly shorter than that of wild strain PAO1(t=2.8525,P<0.05).while the diameter of pvdQ-overexpression strain was longer than that of the wild strain PAO1(t=1.4230,P<0.05).Conclusions pvdQ gene may be involved in regulating the swarming motility of Pseudomonas aeruginosa,which can promote Pseudomonas aeruginosa swarming motility.

Objective To investigate the effects of NOD2 on inflammatory responses of macrophages to Staphylococcus aureus. Methods Real-time RT-PCR detected NOD2 gene expression of macrophages infected by S. aureus. Synthesis of siRNA against NOD2 and interfere with macrophages, observed the effects of NOD2 gene silencing to phagocytosis of 5. aureus, cytokine secretion, activation of nuclear transcription factors, cell apoptosis of the macrophages infected by S. aureus using F.I .IS A, flow cytometry etc. Results S. aureus infection of macrophages can cause increased expression of intracellular NOD2. NOD2 gene silencing of macrophage lead to the decreased ability of phagocytosis with S. aureus, the lower levels of cytokines secretion, deficiencies of NF-κB activation. S. aureus can cause macrophage apoptosis, with the apoptosis rate increased with time. Conclusion The intracellular pattern recognition receptor NOD2 play a key role in pathogen recognition, signal transduction, activation of nuclear transcription factors in the process of macrophages infected by S. aureus.

Double cannulation model of conscious rat allowing simultaneous collection of mesenteric lymph and jugular venous blood was established to investigate the intestinal lymphatic transport of breviscapine orally administered in rat. The concentrations of breviscapine in plasma and lymph were determined by HPLC. The pharmacokinetics of breviscapine after oral and intravenous administration was evaluated in the conscious rat model. It was observed that scutellarin distributed from blood circulation to lymphatic system after intravenous injection. The cumulative lymphatic transport amount within 12 h was (2.78 +/- 0.25) microg, equivalent to 0.0792% of intravenous dose. After oral administration of scutellarin to double-cannulation rats, the cumulative lymphatic transport amount within 12 h was (0.92 +/- 0.08) microg, equal to 0.0083% of oral dose. The absolute bioavailability of breviscapine orally administered to double-cannulation rats was 4.91%, indicating that scutellarin was mainly absorbed into the bloodstream through the portal vein. Lymphatic transport of scutellarin appears to reflect high affinity for the lymph lipoproteins to chylomicron. This study provided a biopharmaceutics basis for developing oral lipid delivery system for the promotion of intestinal lymphatic transport to improve oral bioavailability of breviscapine.

Objective To evaluate the impact of the re-modified Sugiura procedure on portal hemodynamics and liver function in cirrhotic patients with portal hypertension.Methods Forty patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension who underwent the re-modified Sugiura procedure in the Yichang Second People's Hospital from June 2006 to October 2014 were studied.Changes in the free portal pressure (FPP),portal venous flow (PVF) and liver functions before and after operation were analyzed.Results (1) The FPP at different phases of the operation (after opening the abdomen,after splenectomy,and after devascularization) were (43.2 ± 1.8) cmH2O,(34.8 ± 1.6) cmH2O and (35.2 ± 1.7) cmH2O,respectively.There were significant differences in FPP between the phases of after splenectomy and after opening the abdomen,as well as after devascularization and after opening the abdomen (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in FPP between after devascularization and after splenectomy (P ＞ O.05).(2) The PVF,which were measured with Doppler sonography at 4 time points (preoperative 1 day,postoperative 10 days,postoperative 6 months,postoperative 18 months),were (1 420.4 ± 137.7) ml/min,(1 205.2 ± 126.7) ml/min,(875.8 ± 118.0) ml/min and (893.8 ± 114.7) n1/min,respectively.There were significant differences in PVF between postoperative 10 days and preoperative 1 day,between postoperative 6 months and postoperative 10 days,as well as between postoperative 18 months and preoperative 1 day (P ＜0.05).There was no significant difference in PVF between postoperative 18 months and postoperative 6 months (P ＞0.05).(3)The liver functions were evaluated using the Child-Pugh score at 4 time points (preoperative 1 day,postoperative 10 days,postoperative 6 months,postoperative 18 months).There were no significant differences among the time points,(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The re-modified Sugiura's procedure durably,appropriately and effectively reduced the PVF and FPP,but it did not have any negative effects on the liver functions of patients with cirrhosis.

In order to investigate the role of the MexA-MexB-OprM efflux pump system in the pathogenesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA)-induced pulmonary infection, pulmonary infection models were established by intratracheal injection of K767 (wild type), nalB (MexA-MexB-OprM up-regulated mutant), and ΔmexB (knockout) strains, separately. All mice were treated with Meropenem (intraper Δ itoneal injection, 100 mg/kg body weight, twice every day), and strain-related pathology, bacteria count, cytokine level, myeloperoxidase (MPO, indicator of neutrophil recruitment) activity, and macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) expression were evaluated at early (3rd day post-infection) and late (7th and 14th day post-infection) stages of infection. E-test showed that ΔmexB was more significantly Δ sensitive to panipenan (ETP), meropenem (MP) and imipenem (IP) than K767 and nalB strains. There was no significant difference in sensitivity to cefepime (TM) among the three stains. In contrast to the K767 and nalB groups, the ΔmexB group showed decreased bacteria burden over time and less exte Δ nsive pathological change. Additionally, MPO activity and levels of inflammatory cytokines (IL-1b, IL-12, and TNF-α) were increased at the early stage (day 3) and decreased at the later stage (day 14). Serum MIP-2 expression level was steadily increased in all three groups from early to late stages, but significantly higher in ΔmexB group than in K767 and nalB groups ( Δ P<0.05). In conclusion, the MexA-MexB-OprM efflux pump system might play an important role in PA-induced chronic pulmonary infection. High expression of the MexA-MexB-OprM efflux pump could increase antibacterial resistance and promote infection.
