AIM: To investigate the bio-effects of salusins on rat heart and cardiomyocytes. METHODS: The cardiac function was determined by multipurpose polygraph in isolated rat heart treated with various concentrations of salusin-? or salusin-?. [ 45Ca 2+] and [3H]-Leu incorporation were determined in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes with ?-liquid scintillation counter. RESULTS: 10 -12-10 -7mol/L salusin-? and salusin-? had no effects on isolated rat cardiac function. However, salusin-? and salusin-? stimulated [ 45Ca 2+] uptake and [3H]-Leu incorporation. The [ 45Ca 2+] uptake induced by salusins were inhibited by nicardipine, and were synergistically increased by endothelin-1. The [3H]-Leu incorporation induced by salusin-? and salusin-? was inhibited by nicardipine, FK506 (a special inhibitor of carcineulin), PD 98059 (inhibitor of MAPK) and chelerthine (inhibitor of PKC). The effects of salusin-? on [ 45Ca 2+] uptake was stronger than those of salusin-?. But there were no statistical difference in [3H]-Leu incorporation between salusin-? and salusin-?. CONCLUSIONS: Salusin-? and salusin-? did not affect directly cardiac function in rat hearts. But salusins improved calcium uptake and protein synthesize in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. Those effects of salusins were related with calcium channel, carcinuelin, MAPK and PKC signal pathways. Salusins may be the regulatory factors for myocardium growth and hypertrophy.

Objective To explore the relationship between the volume and function of the heart and the pathogenesis of vasovagol syncope (VVS) through the detection of the left atrial volume index(LAVI).Methods The 68 cases in the observation group were diagnosed as VVS and hospitalized in the First Hospital of Jilin University from Jan.1 to Dec.31 in 2012.The 60 cases in the control group were children and adolescents receiving healthy physical examinations during the same period.All the patients were given the examination of heart color Doppler ultrasound,head up tilt test(HUT),body height,body mass,chest X-ray and accounted the LAVI and cardiothoracic ratio was accounted.Results The average age in the observation group and the control group was(12.19 ± 2.01) and(12.15 ± 2.00) years old,respectively.And there was no statistically significant difference in age between these two groups (t =0.10,P ＞0.05).There were 23 boys and 45 girls in the observation group,and 31 boys and 29 girls in the control group.There was statistically significant difference in the ratio of gender composition between these two groups (x2 =4.16,P ＜ 0.05).The LAVI values in these two groups were (21.23 ± 2.04) mL/m2 and (23.45 ± 3.01) mL/m2,respectively.There was statistically significant difference between two groups(t =4.29,P ＜ 0.05).The LAVI values in VVS mixed inhibition (VVS-MI),VVS vascular inhibition (VVS-VI) and VVS cardiac inhibition (VVS-CI) were (21.41 ± 2.98) mL/m2,(21.06 ± 2.59) mL/m2 and(21.23 ± 3.22) mL/m2,respectively.There were statistically significant differences between VVS-MI or VVS-VI and the control groups(t =3.27,3.36,all P ＜ 0.05),but there was no statistically significant difference between VVS-CI and control groups(t =1.61,P ＞ 0.05).The cardiothoracic ratio were 0.43 ± 0.07 and 0.46 ± 0.06 in the observation group and the control group,respectively,and there was statistically significant difference between these two groups(t =3.05,P ＜0.05).Conclusions The pathogenesis of VVS is related to the size and function of left heart.The children and adolescents with smaller LAVI and cardiothoracic ratio are more susceptible to VVS.

Objective:To explore the function of epidermal growth factor 8 in the polarization of microglia after ischemic brain injury and its mechanism.Methods:Forty C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into a sham operation group, an ischemia group, a recombinant mouse milk fat globule epidermal growth factor 8 (rmMFG-E8) group and an rmMFG-E8 + colivelin TFA group, each of 10. The middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion model (tMCAO) was established in all except the sham operation group. Right after the modelling the mice in the rmMFG-E8 group were immediately injected with 2μL of 0.4μg/μL of rmMFG-E8 into the ventricle contralateral to the cerebral infarction. The rmMFG-E8+ Colivelin TFA group was injected with the same dose of rmMFG-E8 plus 2μL of 5pmol/μL colivelin TFA. On the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th day after the modelling, neurological functioning was documented using behavioral tests. The volume proportion of the cerebral infarction was observed after tissue staining on the 7th day after the operation. The gene expression levels of M1 polarization marker-induced nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), M2 polarization marker arginase-1 (Arg1) and mouse chitinase-like molecule 3 (YM1) in the microglia were detected using real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reactions. The protein expression levels of MFG-E8, phosphorylated signal transduction and transcription factor 3 (p-STAT3) and cytokine signal transduction inhibitor-3 (SOCS3) were determined using western blotting.Results:The behavior tests revealed significant differences between the sham operation group and the other groups on all four days. Compared with the sham operation group, the average expression of MFG-E8 gene and its protein, Arg1 and Ym1, and the SOCS3/GAPDH protein ratio had decreased significantly in the ischemic group, while the average expression of iNOS and the p-STAT3/STAT3 protein ratio had increased significantly. On the 7th day after the modelling, compared with the ischemic group, the infarct volume was significantly smaller in the rmMFG-E8 group. The average expression of iNOS and the average p-STAT3/STAT3 ratio in the rmMFG-E8+ colivelin TFA group had increased significantly compared with the rmMFG-E8 group, while the average expression of Arg1 and Ym1, and the SOCS3/GAPDH ratio were significantly lower.Conclusion:MFG-E8 promotes the polarization of M2-type microglia after cerebral ischemia through STAT3 signaling, promoting the recovery of neurological functioning.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of the common pathogens isolated during the period from 2009 to 2015.Methods All the bacterial strains isolated from pediatric inpatients in Beijing Children's Hospital during the period from 2009 to 2015 were analyzed. Antimicrobial susceptibility was determined by disk diffusion method and Phoenix 100 Automated Microbiology System. Results were analyzed according to the guidelines of CLSI (2014) using WHONET 5.6 software.Results The total strains were 26630. The most common gram-positive isolates were Streptococcus pneumoniae,Staphylococcusaureusand coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CNS), while the most frequently isolated gram-negative microorganisms were Klebsiella spp.,Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. The prevalence of S. pneumoniae was up to 25.7 % (4101/15973) in all respiratory tract specimens. About 50.2 % of the S. pneumoniae isolates were not susceptible to penicillin. The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains was 20.6 % in S. aureus (MRSA) and 87.8 % in coagulase negative Staphylococcus (MRCNS) on average. The prevalence of MRSA increased from 11.1 % in 2009 to 29.8 % in 2015. No S. pneumoniae or staphylococcal strains were found resistant to vancomycin or linezolid. The Enterococcus strains were still highly susceptible to vancomycin and linezolid. Overall 0.3 % of the Enterococcus faecium isolates were resistant to vancomycin. The extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) producing strains accounted for 71.4 % -78.1 % of E. coli and 65.1 % - 76.9 % of K. pneumoniae isolates. The carbapenem-resistant E. coli and K. pneumoniae were reported for the first time in 2010, but in 2014, the strains resistant to carbapenems had increased to more than 7 % in E. coli, and higher than 20 % in K. pneumoniae. In 2015, up to 27.7 % and 25.7 % of P. aeruginosa isolates were resistant to imipenem and meropenem, respectively, and 59.9 % of the A. baumannii isolates were resistant to imipenem and meropenem. Beta-lactamase was positive in 46.3 % of the H. influenzae isolates. Conclusions MRSA and the carbapenem-resistant strains of E. coli,K. pneumoniae and A. baumannii are still on the rise in pediatric inpatients, which poses a serious threat to clinical practice and implies the importance of strengthening infection control.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the axonal sprouting of somatostatin(SS) positive interneurons in temporal lobe epilepsy. METHODS: 6-8 week-old healthy male SD rats were divided randomly into an epileptic group (treated by lithium and pilocarpine intraperitoneal injection) and a control group (by lithium and normal sodium intraperitoneal injection). Each group was randomly divided into 5 subgroups at 1,7,15,30, amd 60 d after the injection. Immunohistochemistry method was used to detect the number changes of SS or neuronal nuclei (NeuN) positive neurons in different domains of the hippocampus at different time points in each group, and the coexpression of SS positive interneurons combined with NeuN was detected by double immunofluorescence to observe the dynamic changes and axonal sprouting of SS positive interneurons. RESULTS: The number of SS neurons in the experimental group exceeded that in the control group in the CA1 area at 60 d post-status epileptieus SE (P<0.01), and numerous SS positive fibers were seen throughout the layers of the CAl area at 60 d post-SE. NeuN positive neurons in the stratum oriens and stratum radiatum layers in the initiation site of the CA1 area were beyond normal at 60 d post-SE. The number of double labeled SS interneurons gradually rose at 15 d in stratum oriens of CA1, and even exceeded that of the controls in the stratum oriens and stratum radiatum layers of CA1 at 60 d. CONCLUSION The numerous SS positive fibers throughout the layers of the CAl area at 60 d post-SE come from the increased interneurons in the stratum oriens and stratum radiatum layers of CA1 area. The pathological axonal sprouting may play an important role in the generation and compensation of temporal lobe epilepsy.

Objective To analyze the distribution and antibiotic resistance profile of Haemophilus influenzae strains isolated from children for better antibiotic use.Methods The clinical and laboratory data concerning 350 strains ofH.influenzae were collected and analyzed retrospectively from 2014 to 2015 in our hospital,including pathogen source,production of beta lactamases and antimicrobial susceptibility.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out by using disk diffusion method.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints of the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Association (CLSI) in 2014,and analyzed using WHONET 5.6 software.Results H.influenzae infection was more common in infants and young children.The prevalence of beta lactamase was 53.1％ in H.influenzae isolates.The H.influenzae isolates showed the highest resistance rate to trimethoprimsulfamethoxazole (76.9％),but relatively high susceptible rate to ciprofloxacin (99.1％),ceftizoxime (98.9％),chloramphenicol (95.4％),tetracycline (88.3％),amoxicillin-clavulanic acid (87.7％),cefuroxime (74.9％),azithromycin (65.4％),cefaclor (56.6％) and ampicillin (46.0％).All these H.influenzae strains were susceptible to ceftriaxone and meropenem.Conclusions Beta-lactamases are highly prevalent in the H.influenzae strains isolated from children,which is the main mechanism underlying ampicillin resistance in H.influenzae.Ampicillin is therefore not appropriate for first-line treatment ofH.influenzae infections.The H.influenzae strains are highly resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole.In addition to beta-lactams,ciprofloxacin is the most active agent against H.influenzae strains,followed by chloramphenicol.
