Objective To investigate the effect of necrostatin-1 (Nec-1) on the expression of liver monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) in septic rats and its mechanism. Methods Forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into sham group, model group, and Nec-1 group by randomized digital number method, with 16 rats in each group. The model of sepsis was reproduced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Rats in sham group received anesthesia, and flipping the cecum followed by closure of the abdomen without ligation of the cecum. Rats in Nec-1 group were given 1 mg/kg Nec-1 [25 mg Nec-1 solution dissolved in 2.5 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)] through caudal vein 30 minutes before operation, while the rats in model group were given 0.1 mL/kg of DMSO only. Blood from abdominal aorta and liver tissue in each group were collected at 0 hour and 8 hours after operation. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were determined with automatic biochemistry analyzer. The pathological changes in liver were observed under light microscope using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The MCP-1 mRNA expression in the liver was determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results There was no significant differences in the levels of serum ALT, AST, TNF-α, IL-6 and expressions of liver MCP-1 mRNA at 0 hour among three groups, and the liver cellular structure was normal. At 8 hours, compared with sham group, the expressions of serum ALT, AST, TNF-α, IL-6 and liver MCP-1 mRNA were significantly increased in model group and Nec-1 group [ALT (U/L): 172.35±21.88, 129.67±18.20 vs. 60.04±11.74, AST (U/L): 511.03±34.92, 363.51±25.25 vs. 254.83±31.04, TNF-α(ng/L): 603.96±24.18, 483.87±26.60 vs. 265.74±15.14, IL-6 (ng/L): 975.62±65.37, 712.09±45.47 vs. 310.42±13.88, MCP-1 mRNA (2-ΔΔCt): 7.09±0.18, 5.51±0.45 vs. 0.99±0.06, all P < 0.05]. Levels of the above parameters in Nec-1 group at 8 hours were significantly decreased compared with those of model group (all P < 0.05). Under light microscopy, it was noted that the structure of hepatic lobules was destroyed, with exacerbation of immunocyte infiltration at 8 hours in model group. At 8 hours, it was found that Nec-1 alleviated the pathological damage in Nec-1 group. Conclusion Nec-1 can protect the liver of rats with sepsis, lower the expression of serum TNF-α and serum IL-6 and liver MCP-1 mRNA, and obviously reduce the damage of inflammation.

Objective To investigate the clinical characters of death in AIDS patients with Penicilliosis marneffei (PSM), improving the diagnosis and treatment of PSM. Methods Retrospectively analyze the data of 27 AIDS patients died of PSM from January 2009 to December 2011 and review the relevant literatures in the past several years. Results The etiology diagnosis time ranged from 4 to 7 (4.9 ± 1.4) days from admission. There were 22 (81.5%) cases complicated with septic shock and 25 (92.6%) cases complicated with metabolic acidosis. There were 12 (44.4%) cases co-infected with pneumocyst pneumonia , 7 (25.9%) cases with TB. The main reasons accounting for the death were as follow:15(55.6%) cases died of septic shock, 5(18.5%) cases died of respiratory failure. Conclusion The death cases of AIDS patients with PSM showed the characters of relatively late etiology diagnosis and pathogenic therapy , mostly complicated with other opportunistic infections and often died of septic shock. Therefore, timely etiology diagnosis and earlier pathogenic therapy are the keys to treat the disease. Effectively controlling of the complications and co-infections may decrease the mortality.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients complicated with peripulmonary occupational lesions.Methods:Fifty-five AIDS patients with peripulmonary occupational lesions treated in Guangzhou Eighth People′s Hospital from January 2012 to January 2019 were included, and the clinical data of patients were retrospectively analyzed. According to the results of lung biopsy, the patients were divided into Mycobacterium infection group, fungal infection group and tumor group. The clinical characteristics, the proportion of different CD4 + T lymphocyte counts and chest computed tomography (CT) features of the three groups were compared. Chi square test was used for comparison among the three groups, and Bonferroni method was used to correct the test level for pairwise comparison. The significance level was 0.016 7 because of three pairwise comparisons. Results:Among 55 AIDS patients complicated with peripulmonary occupational lesions, pulmonary biopsy showed 14 cases with Mycobacterium infection, 12 cases with fungal infection and 15 cases with tumor lesions. Mixed diseases were found in 11 patients, including seven cases with Mycobacterium and fungus coinfection, four with tumor complicated with fungus and (or) Mycobacterium. Three with chronic interstitial pneumonia. The main clinical manifestations of 55 patients were fever, expectoration, fatigue, weight loss and superficial lymph node enlargement. There were no significant differences in symptoms/signs, white blood cell counts, hemoglobin levels, alanine transaminase and creatinine among Mycobacterium infection group, fungal infection group and tumor group (all P>0.05). There was significant difference in anti-retroviral therapy (ART) acceptance among the three groups ( χ2=15.165, P<0.01). However, the results of pairwise comparison between groups showed that there was significant difference between fungal infection group and tumor group ( χ2=7.514, P<0.016 7), while there was no significant difference between Mycobacterium infection group and tumor group, Mycobacterium infection group and fungal infection group ( χ2=0.255 and 5.306, respectively, both P>0.016 7). There were significant differences in clinical outcomes among the three groups ( χ2=15.119, P<0.01), and the pairwise comparison between the Mycobacterium infection group and the tumor group, and the fungal infection group and the tumor group showed significant differences ( χ2 =10.311 and 9.095, respectively, both P<0.016 7). The cases with CD4 + T lymphocyte count ≤50/μL, 51-<200/μL and ≥200/μL in Mycobacterium infection group were three cases, one case and 10 cases, respectively; those in fungal infection group were 10 cases, two cases and 0 case, respectively, and those in tumor group were one case, two cases and 12 cases, respectively. The difference was statistically significant ( χ2=21.284, P<0.01). Chest CT showed that there was significant difference in the types of space occupying lesions among the three groups ( χ2=13.308, P=0.003), and pairwise comparison between the two groups showed that there was significant difference between the Mycobacterium infection group and the tumor group ( χ2=11.312, P<0.016 7), while there were no significant differences between the Mycobacterium infection group and fungal infection group ( χ2=0.931, P>0.016 7), and the fungal infection group and the tumor group ( χ2=7.053, P>0.016 7). There was significant difference among the three groups in calcification focus ( χ2=8.524, P=0.004), while there was no difference between the Mycobacterium infection group and fungal infection+ tumor group ( χ2=10.982, P<0.016 7). Conclusions:Mycobacterium infection, fungal infection and tumor are the main types of peripulmonary occupational lesions in AIDS patients. The differential diagnosis could be made by combining with chest CT features, ART acceptance and CD4 + T lymphocyte level.

ObjectiveTo investigate the pathogens and prognostic factors of AIDS-associated severe pneumonia. MethodsClinical data were collected from 95 patients with AIDS-associated severe pneumonia admitted to Guangzhou No. 8 People' s Hospital from January 2005 to December 2008. The pathogens of pulmonary infections were investigated. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to study the relationships between the outcome and influencing factors. Results The most prevalent pathogen was Pneumocystis jirovecii (64/95, 67.4% ), followed by bacteria (61/95, 64.2% ),fungi ( 50/95, 52. 6% ), mycobacterium tuberculosis ( 27/95, 28. 4% ) and cytomegalovirus ( CMV ) (25/95, 26.3% ). Among 95 cases, monocontamination was detected in 15 cases ( 15.8% ), while mixed infection in 80 cases (84. 2% ). Logistic regression analysis showed that mechanical ventilation, higher serum lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) level and severe underlying diseases were risk factors for the death of AIDS-associated severe pneumonia, and higher serum albumin level was the protective factor. Conclusion Pneumocystis jirovecii, bacteria and fungi are the main pathogens for AIDS-associated severe pneumonia, and mixed infection is popular.

Objective To study the relationship between APOBEC3G mRNA level in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and serum hepatitis C viral RNA level in patients with chronic hepatitis C infection. Methods TaqMan real-time fluorescence relative quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to quantify APOBEC3G mRNA levels in PBMC from 49 patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) and 31 healthy subjects. The relationship between APOBEC3G mRNA level and hepatitis C virus (HCV) viral load was analyzed. SPSS11. 0 statistics software was used for t test and regression analysis. Results APOBEC3G mRNA level in CHC patients [(1.5×10-5±1.9×10-5 ) copy/mL] was significantly lower than that [( 5. 2 × 10-5 ± 5. 5 × 10-5 ) copy/mL] in the healthy control subjects (t=-3.005, P<0.01). While APOBEC3G mRNA level was not related with HCV viral loads (r=-0.082, P>0.05). Conclusion HCV has an inhibitive effect on APOBEC3G expression, whereas APOBEC3G doesn't affect HCV replication directly in vivo.

Objective To study the pathogens and drug resistance profiles of pulmonary infection in patients with AIDS. Methods The pathogens and their drug susceptibility of pulmonary infection diagnosed by fibrobronchescopy-induced brunchoalveolar lavage fluid (BAI.F) culture and/or transbronchial biopsy in 116 AIDS cases were analyzed. Results Monopathogenic infection in lungs were detected in 18 cases(15.5%) and mixed infection in 98 cases ( 84.5%). Of the 116 cases, bacteria were present in 91 patients, fungi in 62, tubercle bacillus in 49, pneumocystis jiroveci in 29, and cytomegalovirus in 11.Ninety-five bacterial strains were isolated from BALF, mainly including Streptococci (34), coagulase negative Staphylococcus (20), Klebsiella pneumoniae (10) and Escherichia (7). The isolated bacteria were resistant to β-lactam, macrolides, quinolones and aminoglycosides, of which were 14 methicillin-resistant Streptococci (MRS) strains and 12 extended spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) strains. Sixty-eight fungal strains were isolated, including 36 Candida mycodermas, 19 Penicilliums, 6 Aspergilli and 5 Mold fungi;they were sensitive to amphotericin B but resistant to fluconazol (5.6% -50. 0% ) and itraconazole( 10. 5%-60. 0% ). Conclusion Pneumonia in AIDS patients are usually caused by multiple pathogens,predominantly consisting of multiresistant bacteria and fungi. Therefore, antibiotics should be rationally chosen according to drug susceptibility test.
