Objective:To clarify the effect of miR-200c on the proliferation of retroperitoneal fibroblast, and analyze its molecular mechanism, which provide theoretical basis for the inhibition of retroperitoneal fibrosis. Methods: 36 cases of retroperitoneal tissues were collected, and the primary fibroblasts were cultured. The cells stimulated by 5 ng/ml transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) were used as TGF-β1 group;the cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1-miR-200c first, and then stimulated by 5 ng/ml TGF-β1 were used as miR-200c group;the cells transfected only by pcDNA 3.1 were used as pcDNA 3.1 group;the normal cultured cells were used as control group. The MTT assay, cell scratch and Transwell chamber were used to detect the proliferation and migration of fibroblast, respectively. The ELISA experiment was used to detect the content of Akt protein in the lysis liquid of each group. Results: The OD value of fibroblast proliferation in miR-200c group was obviously lower than that of TGF-β1 group (P<0.01);compared with TGF-β1 group, the cell migration rate was decreased significantly in miR-200c group (P<0.01);the content of Akt protein in miR-200c was obviously lower than that of TGF-β1 group (P<0.01). Conclusion: miR-200c inhibits the effect of TGF-β1 on the proliferation and migration of fibroblast by down-regulating Akt signaling pathway, which has important significance in inhibiting peritoneal fibrosis.

OBJECTIVETo understand the distribution of diarrheagenic Escherichia (E.) coli in population in Shanghai and discuss the practice model of cooperation in enteric infectious disease prevention and control between public health institution and hospital.

METHODSSentinel hospitals were assigned, standard detection and identification of diarrheagenic E. coli were conducted, incidence curve of diarrheagenic E. coli infection was drawn and epidemiologic survey and laboratory detection were conducted for suspect diarrheagenic E. coli infection outbreaks.

RESULTSA total of 7 204 stool specimens were collected from diarrhea patients in 4 hospitals during 2012-2013, in which 712 (9.9% ) were diarrheagenic E. coli positive, including 351 enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) strains, 292 enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) strains, 32 enteroinvasive E. coli(EIEC) strains and 6 Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC/EHEC) strains, as well as 31 mixed strains. EPEC infection mainly occurred in children aged 1-5 years; and all of these infections were caused by aEPEC. The incidence peak of ETEC infection was during August, the positive rate was >20%. The ETEC infection mainly occurred in infants aged 1-28 days in 2012 and in people aged 20-60 years in 2013 (P<0.05). ST was the major type (59.6%), followed by LT (27.8%) and ST/LT (12.6%). EIEC infection increased in children obviously in 2013 (P<0.01). No EHEC O157:H7 case was detected, but two EHEC O26:H11 (eae-hlyA-stx1a) cases in children were reported for the first time in Shanghai. The survey result indicated that the multidrug-resistant ETEC (STh-CS21-CFA/I-ClyA-EatA-ST2332-SHNL0005) strain causing outbreak in 15 newborns in Shanghai in 2012 was in the same clone as the strain detected in Zigong in Sichuan province.

CONCLUSIONSignificant change has occurred in diarrheagenic E. coli distribution in Shanghai in recent years, ETEC has potential risk to cause outbreak of hospital acquired infection in neonates and food borne infection. The active surveillance on ETEC and other enteric pathogens by both public health institutions and hospitals need to be improved.
