Objetive To elucidate the mechanism of antibiotic resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa(P.a.) in an effort to provide a basis in clinical combined use of antibiotics against P.a.infection in clinical settings.Methods All P.a.strains were isolated by routine procedures and identified with VITEK-2 automatic bacterial identification console.The minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC) was detected using dilution method on agar plate following the instruction of CLSI.Results Ninety-two strains of P.a.were isolated from clinical infection specimens,most of them were obtained from respiratory tract(88.04%).Of the 92 strains,45(48.91%) were metallo-?-lactmases positive,and 25(27.17%) were AmpC positive.When treated with a combination of meropenem and imipenem,MIC≥1 was found in 17 strains(18.48%).The bacteriostatic rate of polymixin B and meropenem was 95.65% and 80.43%,respectively,that of amikaein,piperacillin/tazohaetam(PIT) and imipenem was 48.91%-71.74%,and that of cefoperazone/sulbactam(SUP) was 36.96%.The synergistic action of PIT,and SUP with amikacin was 60.87% and 58.70%,respectively,and that of PIT,SUP with minocycline were 44.57% and 43.48%,and of PIT,SUP with PLB were 28.26% and 7.61%,respectively.Conclusions P.a.strains in this study are mainly isolated from respiratory tract infection specimens.Multiple drug-resistant mechanisms are involved in the drug resistance of P.a.Enzyme inhibitors,such as PIT or SUP,with amikacin or polymixin B should be first selected for clinical treatment of P.a.caused infection.Meanwhile,antibiotics should be rationally administered in accordance with the seriousness of disease,and with the drug-resistant phenotype of the isolated strains.

Purpose:To study the RNA interference-mediated inhibition of survivin gene on the proliferation of human breast cancer SKBr-3 cells. Methods:SKBr-3 cells were transfected with a pSUPER-S1 vector plasmid that expressed survivin-targeted small interfering RNA, and the mRNA and protein levels of survivin gene were measured with RT-PCR and indirect immunofluorescence, respectively. The proliferation of transfected SKBr-3 cells was investigated through colony forming assay and MTT assay. The cell cycle phases were determined by flow cytometry(FCM). Results:The mRNA and protein levels of survivin declined markedly in pSUPER-S1-transfected SKBr-3 cells. And the colony forming rate of those cells(38?16.70)% was significantly lower than that of the control cells(90.3?4.04)%.The growth of the pSUPER-S1-transfected cells was decelerated and the cell cycle was mainly blocked at G_(1) phase(74.03?8.91)%. Conclusions:survivin gene silencing by RNA interference contributed to a distinctive inhibition of the proliferation of human breast cancer SKBr-3 cells in vitro.

Objective To establish a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay for simultaneous identification of Shigella spp., Salmonella spp. and Vibrio cholerae. Methods Based on the gene sequences of invasion plasmid antigen H (ipaH) in Shigella spp., invasion plasmid antigen B(ipaB)in Salmonella spp. and enterotoxin extracellular secretion protein (EPSM) in V. cholerae, three pairs of primer were designed. Genomic DNA was extracted by the boiling method and multiplex PCR was performed with premix Taq in an ABI 2720 thermal cycle. The PCR-amplified products were then analyzed by using agarose gel electrophoresis. Results Under the optimized conditions, the assay yielded a 606-bp product from Shigella spp., a 314-bp product from Salmonella spp., and a 482-bp product from V. cholerae, respectively. When the DNA extraction of multiple target organisms was included in the same reaction, two or three corresponding amplicons in different size were observed. Conclusions A rapid, specific and sensitive multiplex PCR system for simultaneous detection of Shigella spp., Salmonella spp. and V. cholerae has been established. The results suggest that the simultaneous amplification of several genes by multiplex PCR may provide an efficient and rapid diagnostic method for severe diarrhea.

As a new type of intercellular signaling rector, extracellular vesicles (EV) are involved in almost the whole process of tumorigenesis, progression, metastasis, and drug resistance. Therefore, EV have become the ideal biomarker candidates and research hotspots for cancer diagnosis and treatment. However, EV tumor biomarker research mainly focused on RNA and protein, and a small part of the research focused on lipids at the early stage. EV DNA has received little attention and its diagnostic value has gradually been recognized in recent years. Study on the biological characteristics and function of EV DNA may highlight its potential in tumor diagnosis.
