Objective To explore the underlying mechanism of potential effect of sildenafil on porcine pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (SMCs) proliferation induced by serotonin. Methods Porcine pulmonary artery SMCs at 3-5 passages were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group (CON), 5-HT group (HT), sildenafil group (SIL) and sildenfil-5HT combined group (S-HT). Pulmonary artery SMCs at exponential growth phase were serum starved with 0.2% FBS for 72 h, followed by sterile PBS, serotonin (10 μmol/L) and sildenafil (1 μmol/L) incubation in CON group, HT group and SIL group, respectively. In combined group (S-HT): pulmonary artery SMCs were serum starved and then exposed to sildenafil for 20 min, followed by serotonin incubation for indicated time. The phosphorylation of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK1/ERK2) was measured by Western blot at indicated time points. Flow active cell sorting (FACS) was used to evaluate the ratio of S phase cells in the cell cycle after 24 h of treatment. MTT color metric method was used to analyze SMCs proliferative index after 72 h of treatment. Results Compared with CON group, the phosphorylation of ERK1/ERK2, the percentage of cells in S phase, and the cell proliferation index increased remarkably after incubation with 5-HT (P<0.05). Preincubation with sildenafil followed by serotonin enhanced the phosphorylation of ERK1/ERK2 (p-ERK1/ERK2) and further elevated the percentage of cells in S phase and the cell proliferation index compared with that of HT group. While the total ERK1/ERK2 (t-ERK1/ERK2) was not statistically different among these groups. Conclusions Sildenafil potentiates the proliferative effect of serotonin on pulmonary arterial SMCs via upregulating phosphorylation of ERK1/ERK2.

Objective: To assess the immunological effects by orally administering chicken type Ⅱ collagen(CCⅡ) on collagen-induced arthritis(CIA)mice. To assess the effect on producing IL-1 of peritoneal macrophage in adjuvant arthritis rats by orally administering CCⅡ. Methods: Arthritis were induced in Kunming mice by immunization with chicken type Ⅱ collagen with Freund's complete adjuvant, followed by an interperitoneal injection of CCⅡ 3 weeks later.Chicken type Ⅱ collagen was orally administered from 5 days prior to the induction of arthritis to 14 days after inducing arthritis model. The animals were examined visually twice weekly for polyarthritic signs of swollen and erythemic limbs. Quantitation of antibody level of CIA mice was measured by ELISA method. Subpopulations of T lymphocytes in mice were evaluated by flow cytometry method. IL-1 assay was evaluated by ELISA method. Results: Joint swelling was significantly reduced at a dose of 5 μg.kg-1 and 50 μg.kg-1 of CCⅡ, but not at 250 μg.kg-1. The level of anti-collagen antibodies was also reduced at a dose of 5 μg.kg-1 and 50μg.kg-1 (OD value from CIA model control 0.242±0.073 to CCⅡ 5 μg.kg-1 0.123±0.029 and CCⅡ 50 μg.kg-1 0.110±0.075 respectively). Subpopulations of T-lymphocytes were changed by orally administering of CCⅡ, and the ratio of L3T4+/Lyt-2+ was lowered (the ratio from 1.71 of CIA model control to 1.21, 1.51 of administered CⅡ 5 μg.kg-1, 50μg.kg-1 respectively.) after administering CCⅡ. IL-1 level can be reduced (the value from adjuvant arthritis model control 62.8±0.9 to 43.4±1.3, 49.7±0 ng.L-1 administered CⅡ 5 μg.kg-1, 50μg.kg-1 respectively). Conclusion: Arthritis sign in CIA animal model can be suppressed by oral CCⅡ. The effects may be involved by influencing the mechanisms both humoral and cellular immunity. The effects occurred at lower doses of CCⅡ. These results demonstrated the biologic relevance of by-stander suppression associated with oral tolerance, and the potential use of this approach to treat human inflammatory joint diseases.

Objective To explore the clinical manifestations,antimicrobial therapy,and risk factors of mortality in patients with Acinetobacter baumannii bloodstream infection.Methods Clinical data of 153 patients with Acinetobacter baumannii bloodstream infection hospitalized in First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University from January 2013 to September 2014 were analyzed retrospectively.According to the 28-day survival after diagnosis,the patients were divided into death group (n =76) and survival group (n =77).Data related to demographic and clinical characteristics,underlying diseases,treatment,invasive procedures,bacterial resistance to antibiotics,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ)scores at onset,and antimicrobial therapy were collected.The index as an independent risk factor of mortality was demonstrated by multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results This study included 153 patients with Acinetobacter baumannii bloodstream infection.The 28-day mortality was 49.7％.The independent risk factors of mortality were APACHE Ⅱ score ≥22 at onset (OR =15.7,95％ CI 5.1-48.1,P ＜ 0.001),septic shock (OR =6.3,95 ％ CI 1.9-21.3,P =0.003),and administration of steroids (OR =3.6,95％ CI 1.0-12.3,P =0.043).Compared with subjects treated with non-cefoperazone-sulbactam-based regimen,those treated with cefoperazone-sulbactam for multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (MDR-AB) had significantly lower mortality on day7,day14 and day28 (8.9％ vs 59.2％,31.1％ vs 65.8％,44.4％ vs 72.4％ respectively).Conclusions The patients with Acinetobacter baumannii bloodstream infection have high mortality within one month.Administration of steroids and septic shock are associated with poor prognosis.APACHE Ⅱ score ≥ 22 at onset predicts adverse outcome.Cefoperazone-sulbactam-based antimicrobial therapy improves patients' survival.

Objective To investigate the resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and genotyping of the main β-lactamases in China. Methods A total of 645 Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates were collected from 28 hospitals in 16 cities in China from July 2006 to July 2007. The susceptibilities to 11 kinds of antimicrobial agents were detected by agar dilution or Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method. The genotypes of β-lactamases including TEM, SHV, CTX-M and OXA of all the strains were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequence analysis. Results The resistance rates of 645 Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates to antimicrobial agents were high, except those to amikacin and meropenem were lower than 30 %. Two hundred and seventy-five (42. 64 % ) strains were carbapenem and (or) meropenem-nonsusceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Three hundred and sixty-eight (57.05 %) strains were multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 20 (3. 10%) strains were pandrug-resistant. The genotyping results of β-lactamases were as follows: 51 stains produced OXA-10 group β-lactamases, 37 were CARB type, 36 were TEM, 35 were PER, 11 were CTX-M, 9 were VEB, 5 were SHV, 24 were metallo-β-lactamases positive and 1 was GES. None of genotypes of plasmidmediated AmpC enzyme and other carbapenemases were detected. CTX-M-13, CTX-M-14,CTX-M-15, CTX-M-3 of extended spetrum β-lactamese were detected in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.Conclusions The situation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistances is severe in China. OXA-10 and PSE-1 are the most common genotypes of β-lactamases. The β-lactamases genotyping is different between carbapenem-nonsusceptible and carbapenem-susceptible strains.

Dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons are primary sensory neurons that conduct neuronal impulses related to pain, touch and temperature senses. To comprehensively identify proteins of plasma membrane (PM) from small amount of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, a proteomics strategy that utilizes aqueous polymer two-phase partition in combination with differential velocity centrifugation was adopted to enrich the PM, followed by SDS-PAGE, CapLC-MS/MS and bioinformatics analysis. Western blot analysis showed that the concentration of PM in purified plasma membrane(PPM) was 2.3 times higher than that in crude plasma membrane(CPM), 15 times higher than that in whole tissue lysate (WTL). By searching against the rat IPI protein sequence database, a total of 729 non-redundant proteins were identified from the PM preparation, of which 547 had a gene ontology (GO) annotation indicating a cellular component, and 159 (21.8%) were unambiguously identified as PM proteins. A data set of plasma membrane proteins of DRG as well as a tool to study PM proteins were provided in a small amounts of sample.
