BACKGROUND: Direct observation of infarcted microvaseular perfusion after cerebral infarction is the most immediate evidence in evaluation of therapeutic effects.OBJECTIVE: To observe dynamic changes in flowing quality and field in cerebral ischemic area in rats so as to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze the microvascular state in pia matral encephali ischemic area and the changes of associated leukocytic flowing velocity and flowing morphology.DESIGN: Randomized controlled experiment was designed.SETTING: Department of Acupuncture and Moxibustion of General Hospital Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in Research Room of Microcirculation of General Hospital Chinese PLA, in which, 120 female Wis tar rats of 2-month old were employed and randomized into acupuncture group (36 rats), model group (36 rats), sham-operation group (36 rats) and normal group (12 rats). The first 3 groups were subdivided in 3 hours, 6hours and 24 hours groups according to the prescriptive time divisions, 12rats in each group.METHODS: In acupuncture and model groups, after abdominal anesthesia with pentobarbital sodium, the cranium was opened and the occlusion of meddle cerebral artery was performed in cerebrum with heat-coagulation method. In sham-operation group, anesthesia and cranium opening were performed, but the meddle cerebral artery was not occluded. In normal group, no any management was performed. In acupuncture group, 60 minutes after occlusion of meddle cerebral artery in cerebrum, needling was given on Renzhong (GV 26) and Neiguan (PC 6) with electric stimulation of disperse-dense wave, 4-10 Hz frequency and 0.4 V of intensity, lasting for 5 minutes. Afterwards, pecking-acupuncture technique was done on Renzhong (GV 26) to achieve strong stimulation for 10 seconds. In shamoperation and model groups, the rats were in process of grasping and fixation, but acupuncture was not applied. Vascular endotheliocyte fluorescence staining and leukocyte fluorescence tracing method were applied, in combination with microscopic video system and computer imaging analyzing system, to observe in dynamic and quantitatively the influences of acupuncture on pia matral encephali microvascular morphology, density and blood flowing velocity at 3 hours, 6 hours and 24 hours after cerebral occlusion of meddle cerebral artery.morphology, density and blood flowing state at various time divisions observed directly microscopically and vascular endotheliocyte morphology and the state of brain tissue which near the microvascular after infusion with velocity in infarcted area at various time divisions measured in quantity in each group.microvascular endotheliocytes were colored worse and more fluorescent exudation appeared. Those were better remarkably in acupuncture group ty: That in model group was lower than normal group. That at 3 hours, 6hours and 24 hours in acupuncture group was higher remarkably than model group [(6.92±0.42), (3.25±0.52) pces/visual field; (7.61 ±0.51),(3.68±0.32) pces/visual field; (8.24±0.72), (5.49±1.2) pces/visual leukocyte velocity: That in model group was lower remarkably in normal group. That at 3 hours, 6 hours and 24 hours in acupuncture group was higher remarkably than model group [(1 193±358), (600±261) μm/s;(1 112±267), (517±115) μm/s, (1 766±293), (611±291) μm/s, q=4.608.28, P ＜ 0.01].CONCLUSION: At early stage of cerebral infarction, broken blood flow is severe in artery, vein and capillary in ischemic area; the numbers of opened vessels are few, flow rate is slow down and cerebral perfusion is unsatisfactory. Acupuncture amaliorate the microcirculation perfusion state in ischemic area, increases the numbers of opened vessels and improves flowing morphology of blood cell.

OBJECTIVE To study the resistant characteristics and the resistant mechanisms of Gram-negative bacilli(G-) to ?-lactam antibiotics in the local nosocomial infections.METHODS The effects of efflux pump inhibitor on MICs were determined.Phenotypes and isoelectric points of ?-lactamases(Bla) were determined.Bla Genes were amplified and sequenced.RESULTS Of all tested isolates,the resistant rates to the most antibiotics were high.Besides 10.5% isolates with the efflux pumps,all tested isolates produced Bla,among which extended spectrum ?-lactamases(ESBLs),cephalosporin ?-lactamase(AmpC Bla) and metallo-?-lactamase were responsible for 42.1%,17.5% and 7.0% isolates,respectively.The complete nucleotide sequences of the ampC genes in 8 Enterobacter cloacae isolates had very high homology with the ampC gene in E.cloacae ECLC074.CONCLUSIONS The production of Bla is the main resistant mechanism of G-to ?-lactam antibiotics.ESBLs are the most frequent Bla.All of the ampC genes of AmpC Bla-producing E.cloacae originate from the ampC gene in E.cloacae ECLC074.Imipenen is the best choice for the treatment of the infections caused by multidrug resistant G-.Piperacillin/tazobactam and cefoperazone/sulbactam can be used to treat the infections caused by drug-resistant non-fermentative bacilli.Amikacin is effective to treat the infections caused by AmpC Bla-producing E.cloacae.

Objective:To study the changes of PTEN gene expression in radiation-induced bystander cells.Methods:The irradiated cells and non-irradiated cells were co-cultured in a ratio of 11.The culture medium of irradiated cells was used to culture non-irradiated cells to create two bystander cell models. The expression of PTEN mRNA and protein in the bystander cells,irradiated cells,non-irradiated cells was compared.Results:The protein expression of PTEN in the irradiated cells was negatively associated with the irradiation dose.The down-regulation degree of PTEN protein was related to the different treatments of cells.The most prominent down-regulation was found in the bystander cells cultured with medium of irradiated cells.The down-regulation of PTEN protein in the two kinds of bystander cells was more severe than that in the irradiated cells(P

Objective To observe the relationship between extended spectrum ?-lactumases(ESBLs) bacteria infection and immune factor in children.Methods Immune function were tested in 49 children with ESBLs infection,that the test of ESBLs changed from negative to positive in hospital and compared with that of ESBLs bacteria negative infected case,children with hypoimmunity and normal immune function.Results Forty-nine cases of ESBLs bacteria positive-changed children had lower immune function and their immune function improved when restored.The rate of ESBLs positive-changed was significant higher in hypoimmunity than that of normals(P

Objective To explore the reversing mechanism of multidrug resistance of ciclosporin(CsA) on K562/A02 cell line,attenuating DNA damage repair through H2AX suppression.Methods K563 and K562/A02 respectively co-cultured with adriamycin(ADM) of different concentrations and CsA.MTT assay was employed to determine the inhibitory concentration of 50 percent(IC50),the resistance times and the reversal times.The K562/A02 cells treated with CsA,and reverse transcriptase(RT)-PCR technique was used to examine the mdr1 and H2AX mRNA level.Flow cytometry was used to measure P-glycoprotein(P-gp) and H2AX expression.Neutral comet assay was used to detect the level of DNA double strands break(DSBs) of the K562/A02 treated with ?H2AX antibody.Results 2?10-3g/L CsA could increase the sensitivity of K562/A02 to ADM,and the reversal times was 5.28.Mdr1 mRNA level and H2AX mRNA level were decreased when treated with CsA(P
