PurposeTo investigate the effect of gasoline on the skin barrier function.MethodsA rat skin model in vitro was used in this study. The amount of 3H-water penetrated throught the skin was applied as the index of evaluating the barrier function.ResultsThe results showed that the amount of 3H-water was not obviously increased in those exposed to gasoline for 0.5,1 and 2 h(P > 0.05), but the 3H-water penetration amount through the skin increased linearly with the time. In the group exposed to gasoline 4 h, the 3H-water penetration amount through the skin was significantly higher than that in the control group (P 0.05). The skin barrier function of the group (expopsed to gasoline 4 h) was disrupted.Conclusions Gasoline may disrupt the skin barrier function. Gasoline would remove the lipids within the intercellular domains of the stratum corneum and then lead to damage the skin.

Objective To evaluate the protective effectiveness of intranasal immunizations with recombinated-pneumococcal autolysin(Re-LytA), which protects mice against local and systemic Streptococ- cus pneumoniae(Sp) infection. Methods Testing group (group A): CpG as an adjuvant, the mice were intranasally immunized with purified Re-LytA, obtained by affinity chromatograph. The negative control group(group B) were intranasally immunized with sterile saline. And the positive control group (group C) were received 23-valent polysaccharide commercial vaccine through intramuscular injection. All the samples were collected 2 weeks post the last immunization. The levels of antibody was determined by ELISA. Then the mice were challenged intraperitoneally and intranasally with Sp, respectively. The infection and coloniza- tion was followed by monitoring colony-forming units of Sp in the blood, homogenized lung, and nasopharyn- geal lavage fluid 4 days post intranasal immunization. The mice were observed daily to note the livability of each group. Results The level of the LytA antibody (IgG, IgA, slgA) in group A were higher than that in group B and C (P < 0.05). Neither the LytA nor polysaccharide antibody could be detected in group B. Polysaccharide antibody could be detected in group C. After challenged intraperitoneally there was no signifi- cant difference in survival rates between group A and group C (P > 0.05), which was significant higher than that in group B (P <0.05). After challenged intranasally, compared with the group A, the geometric mean colony-forming units washed from the nasopharyngeal lavage fluid of the group B and group C were signifi- cantly higher (P <0.05). Conclusion lntranasal immunizations with Re-LytA can protect mice against lo- cal and systemic pneumococcal infection, and the protective immunity may be related to sIgA.

Objective To investigate the effect of bortezomib on the proliferation and apoptosis in leukemia cell line NB_4-R2 in vitro and provide some new evidences for the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia APL with ATRA-resistant using bortezomib. Methods NB_4-R2 cells were incubated with bortezomib at different does for 48 h. The proliferation capacity was measured by MTT assay, the morphology of cell apoptosis observed with Hoechst33342 staining by fluorescence microscopy and the percentage of apoptosis calculated by flow cytometry. The expression of apoptosis protein of cleaved (poly ADP-ribose polymerase, PARP) and Caspase-3 were determined by Western blotting. Results The proliferation of NB_4-R2 cells were obviously inhibited by bortezomib in vivo and the role of inhibition was a does-dependant manner within the scope of the bortezomib concentration from 1-5 μg /L.The incidence of inhibition was up to 74.9 % at the bortezomib concentration of 5 μg/L. Within this scope of the bortezomib concentration mentioned above, the role of inhibition of proliferation of NB_4-R2 cells mainly showed an increase of the late apoptosis, and the percentage of apoptosis was up to 78.9 %. In the meaning time, the expressions of the apoptotic protein of cleaved PARP and Caspase-3 were up-regulated in NB_4-R2 cells after treated with bortezomib by Western blotting assay. Conclusion Bortezomib can inhibit the proliferation of NB_4-R2 cells in vivo by inducing cell apoptosis.
