Objective To construct vectors based on adeno-associated virus type 2 (rAAV2) carrying bone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP-7) and observe their expression in adipose-derived adult stem cells, which can be served as a new gene therapy method and cell source for bone tissue engineering. Methods The coding sequence (1. 3 kb) of BMP-7 was amplified by PCR from the pcDNAl. 1 ( + ) plasmid containing the human BMP-7 cDNA. After purified, the gene fragments were cloned into a plasmid pUC18 and termed plasmid pUC18-hBMP7. The recombinant pUC18-hBMP7 was digested and further ligated to the pSNAV by T4DNA ligase and termed plasmid pSNAV-hBMP7. BHK-21 cells were transfected with the purified pSNAV-BMP7 plasmid according to a standard calcium phosphate precipitation method. The cells were isolated and the integrity of hBMP7 gene was determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using the above PCR primers. To package the virus, stably transfected BHK-21 cells were subsequently infected with recombinant herpes simplex virus type 1 (rHSV-1). The collected cells were processed by chloroform treatment, PEG8000/NaCl precipitation and chloroform extraction for purification. The tiler was determined using quantitative DNA dot blots and the purity was examined by sodium dodecyl sulphatepolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Following infection with rAAV2-BMP7 at multiplicities of infection of 1?105 vector genomes per cell and subsequent culture, adipose-derived adult stem cells were assessed qualitatively for BMP7 production. Results The recombinant plasmid pSNAV-hBMP7 was identified by PCR and digested with restriction enzyme. Transfection showed an efficiency of 90 % in ADAS cells. BMP-7 expression in ADAS cells was identified by Western blot. Conclusions The hBMP-7 recombinant adeno-associated virus vectors can be successfully constructed in vitro and rAAV2-hBMP7 can infect ADAS cells.

OBJECTIVE To study the carbapenemase genotypes among Acinetobacter calcoaceticus isolates infected after liver transplantation. METHODS The 5.4 software was used to analyze the resistance of Acinetobacter species. Eight strains of imipenem-resistant A. calcoaceticus which were resistant to multiple drugs were collected. Analytical isoelectric focusing electrophoresis was used to measure the pI of the ?-lactamase. The homology of the isolates was determined by pulsed field gel electrophoresis(PFGE). blaTEM, blaSHV, blaIMP, blaVIM, blaOXA Genes for resistant isolates were amplified and sequenced. RESULTS Imipenem-resistant A. calcoaceticus infected after liver transplantation was resistant to multiple drugs. All of 8 strains were produced OXA-23 carbapenemases (pI of 6.7). The results of PFGE indicated there was a trend of resistant clone transmisstion in the transplantation ward. CONCLUSIONS There is a transmisstion of A. calcoaceticus producing OXA-23 carbapenemase in the transplantation ward of our hospital. It is important to monitor powerfully the bacterial resistance to control infection more effectively.

Objective To explore whether albumin corrected anion gap (ACAG) is associated with long-term mortality of sepsis patients.Methods Adult patients with a diagnosis of sepsis within the first 24 hours (from December 2013 to December 2014) admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) were included via the Sepsis database of West China Hospital Sichuan University. To record their long-term survival, patients were followed up by telephone interview one year after enrollment. ACAG was calculated according to the anion gap (AG) level within the first 24 hours admitted to ICU, and patients were divided into normal ACAG group (ACAG 12-20 mmol/L) and high ACAG group (ACAG > 20 mmol/L), and clinical characteristics and 1-year mortality were compared between groups. Patients were also divided into survivors and non-survivors according to the 1-year survival outcome, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to find independent risk factors for long-term mortality of sepsis patients.Results A total of 296 sepsis patients were enrolled in the study, with 191 (64.5%) in the high ACAG group and 105 (35.5%) in the normal ACAG group. There were no significant differences in age, gender, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), Charlson cormobidity index (CCI) and other background variables between groups. Compared with the normal ACAG group, patients who suffered from multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in the high ACAG group were more prone to develop renal and gastrointestinal injury (43.5% vs. 25.7%, 52.9% vs. 33.3%, respectively), had significantly higher serum creatinine [SCr (μmol/L): 89.0 (61.0, 148.0) vs. 67.1 (48.0, 86.0)], greater need for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT, 16.8% vs. 6.7%), and significantly shorter length of ICU stay and hospital stay [days: 11 (5, 22) vs. 16 (18, 31), 21 (14, 39) vs. 28 (20, 47)], with statistically significant differences (allP < 0.05). It was shown by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis that 1-year cumulative survival for the high ACAG group was significantly lower than that of the normal ACAG group (55.0% vs. 67.7%,P = 0.046). It was shown by multivariate logistic regression that ACAG [odds ratio (OR) = 1.201, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 1.115-1.293,P = 0.000], APACHE Ⅱ (OR = 1.053, 95%CI = 1.011-1.098, P = 0.014), the incidence of septic shock (OR = 2.203, 95%CI = 1.245-3.898,P = 0.007), fungus infection (OR = 3.107, 95%CI = 1.702-5.674,P = 0.000), acute renal failure (OR = 2.729, 95%CI = 1.134-6.567,P = 0.025) and complicated with malignancy (OR = 2.929, 95%CI = 1.395-6.148,P = 0.005) were independent risk factors contributing to increased 1-year mortality among sepsis patients.Conclusion ACAG was an independent risk factor for 1-year mortality of sepsis patients.
