With IL-6R as target, a new compound 2460A was identified from fungus using HTS screening model. The taxonomics of the produced strain was confirmed to be Trichoderma hazianum rifai after sequencing analysis of rDNA-ITS (internal transcribed spacer). Results showed that this compound has a binding activity on IL-6R competed with IL-6, thus it is a new ligand of IL-6R originating from microbe. With MTT assay, the anti-tumor activities of 2460A were demonstrated on CM126 and HT-29 cell lines separately, the IC50 are 2.17 x 10(-5) mol x L(-1) and 1.8 x 10(-5) mol x L(-1) respectively. The compound affected lightly the HT-29 cell cycle at S phase. Studies for the anti-tumor activity of 2460A in vivo are in progress in our lab.

Objective To explore the clinical signiifcance of combined detection of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and free thyroxin (FT4) in dried blood spots in screening for congenital hypothyroidism (CH) in neonates. Methods The TSH and FT4 levels in dried blood spot were measured by time-resolved lfuorescence immunity in live born neonates from June to December 2013. If the screening was positive, the blood was drawn and the serum TSH and FT4 were measured and compared with the results from dried blood spots. Results In a total of 31 199 neonates screened, 12 cases were diagnosed with CH and the prevalence rate of CH was 1/2 600;4 cases were hyperthyropinemia and no pituitary CH was detected. There was no signiifcant difference between TSH or FT4 levels in dried blood spot and those in serum in neonates diagnosed with CH (P>0.05). Conclusions Combined detection of TSH and FT4 in dried blood spot can be used for neonatal screening of CH. It can be applied for early distinguishing CH from hyperthyropinemia, and also helpful for early diagnosis and treatment of central CH.

AIM: To investigate the protective effect of ulinastatin on rats with hemorrhagic shock. METHODS: A prospective, controlled animal study was designed. The model of hemorrhagic shock in rats was produced by Chaudry method. After 60 min, rats were resuscitated by transfusion of shed blood and normal saline, but a half of them were treated with ulinastatin. At different time points after reperfusion, the levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-?), interleukin-6 (IL-6), malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in serum were detected. RESULTS: The levels of TNF-?, IL-6 and MDA significantly increased and the activity of SOD decreased. In the ulinastatin-treated groups, the blood pressure and heart rate were obviously improved; the levels of TNF-?, IL-6 and MDA significantly decreased and the activity of SOD had little change after hemorrhagic shock and reperfusion. CONCLUSION: Ulinastatin has a protection effect on rats with hemorrhagic shock by suppressing the production of inflammatory factors and reducing oxidative damage.

Objective To reveal the pathophysiological changes of sepsis, the plasma metabonomics of septic rats was determined and differential metabolites were determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Methods Male Spraguee-Dawley (SD) rats about 8 weeks were randomly divided into sham group (n = 18) and sepsis group (n = 24). Cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) was used to build sepsis model, while cecum was kept intact only in the sham group. 6 hours after the operation, rats were anesthetized, and blood was harvested through heart thoracotomy. Then the plasma metabonomics was detected by GC-MS and metabolic profile analysis was performed to find the relative differential metabolites.Results Principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) showed that the metabolic profiling of the sepsis group was significantly different from the sham group. 259 kinds of metabolites were got by GC-MS, and 69 kinds of differential metabolites were found between sham group and sepsis group, in which 23 differential metabolites were related to amino acid metabolism. Compared with sham group, the contents of putrescine, N-glutamic acid, hydroxynorvaline, 3-cyanuric acid, D-alanyl-D-alanine and urea in the plasma of septic rats increased significantly, which ratios of sepsis/sham group were 10.876, 6.394, 2.800, 2.226, 1.323, 1.203, respectively (allP < 0.05). On the other hand, the contents of oxygen generation of proline, citrulline, glutamine, su-beta-hydroxy aspartic acid, citric acid, N-methyl-DL-alanine, serine, lysine, threonine, N-formyl-L-methionine, methionine, alanine, nicotinuric acid, N-methyl-L-glutamic acid, trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline, proline, L-glutamic acid in the plasma of septic rats decreased significantly, which ratios of sepsis/sham group were 0.858, 0.853, 0.834, 0.816, 0.816, 0.814, 0.813, 0.801, 0.793, 0.792, 0.774, 0.766, 0.748, 0.727, 0.716, 0.674, 0.603, respectively (allP < 0.05).Conclusions Through the GC-MS analysis of plasma metabonomics of septic rats, we found abnormal energy metabolism changes. The content of amino acid in plasma might be a method to evaluate the energy metabolism status of sepsis.

Objective: The aim of the study is to validate whether the Recognition Of Stroke In the Emergency
Room (ROSIER) scale can be used by general practitioners (GPs) in an emergency medical service
(EMS) protocol to transfer stroke patients from primary care center to advanced hospital with acute
stroke center. Methods: GPs prospectively performed the ROSIER scale and the Cincinnati Prehospital
Stroke Scale (CPSS) on suspected stroke patients as a transfer protocol. All patients were immediately
transferred to the Level-II hospital for further treatment. Results: 468 of the 512 suspected stroke
patients met the inclusion criteria in this study. The ROSIER scale showed a diagnostic sensitivity
of 83.13% (95% confidence intervals [CI] 79.74-86.52%) and specificity of 80.88% (95% CI 77.32-
84.44%). The CPSS showed a diagnostic sensitivity of 78.01% (95% CI 74.26-81.76%) and specificity
of 70.59% (95% CI 66.46-74.72%). The Kappa statistic value of the ROSIER scale and the CPSS
were 0.601 and 0.454, respectively. The area under the curve (AUC) of ROSIER scale was large than
the CPSS (AUC 0.855 vs. 0.791). However, the difference was not significantly different.
Conclusions: This study suggest that ROSIER and CPSS could be used in an EMS protocol to transfer
stroke patients from a primary care center to an advanced hospital offering thrombolysis service
