Observating 13 neonates who accepted mechanical ventilating reatment for respiratory failure, the important methods about the nurse of the neonatal respiratory tract were summarized. The clinical nursing care, the nutritionsurpporting,and the reducing complication of the mechanical ventilation in neonates were emphasized.

OBJECTIVE： To investigate the effects of chelidonine on proliferation， collagen synthesis and TGF-β1 receptor of activated hepatic stellate cells CFSC-8B. METHODS： CFSC-8B cells in logarithmic phase were collected and then divided into normal control group， model group， solvent group （ethanol）， positive control group （1 μg/mL colchicine ethanol solution）， chelidonine low， medium and high concentration groups （2.1， 4.2， 8.4 μg/mL chelidonine ethanol solution）. Except for normal control group， other groups were activated with 20 μg/L TGF-β1 for 24 h； the latter 5 groups were intervened with relevant medicine for 24 h. Cell proliferation of activated cells was assayed by CCK-8 assay. Hydroxyprolin （Hyp） content was assayed by enzyme digestion； the levels of typeⅠ collagen （Col-Ⅰ） and type Ⅲ collagen （Col-Ⅲ） were assayed by ELISA； the expressions of TβR-Ⅰ and TβR-Ⅱ protein were assessed by Western blot； mRNA expressions of α-SMA， TβR-Ⅰ and TβR-Ⅱ in hepatic stellate cells were assessed by RT-PCR. RESULTS： Compared with normal control group， cell proliferation rate， Hyp content， the levels of Col-Ⅰ and Col-Ⅲ， the protein expressions of TβR-Ⅰ and TβR-Ⅱ as well as mRNA expressions of α-SMA， TβR-Ⅰ and TβR-Ⅱ were increased significantly （P＜0.05）. Compared with model group， there were no significant difference in above indexes of hepatic stellate cells in solvent group （P＞0.05）； there were no significant difference in the proliferation rate of hepatic stellate cells in chelidonine low concentration group （P＞0.05）， above indexes of hepatic stellate cells were decreased significantly in positive control group and chelidonine high concentration group （P＜0.05）. The decrease of Hyp and Col-Ⅲ levels were not significant in chelidonine medium concentration， but other above indexes were decreased significantly （P＜0.05）. Compared with chelidonine medium concentration group， the rate of cell proliferation， Col-Ⅰ level， protein and mRNA expressions of TβR-Ⅰ and TβR-Ⅱ were decreased significantly in chelidonine high concentration group （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS： Chelido- nine can inhibit the proliferation， collagen synthesis as well as the protein and mRNA expressions of TβR-Ⅰand TβR-Ⅱ in activated CFSC-8B cells.
