Aim To further investigate the protective effect and mechanisms of total paeony glycoside (TPG) on apoptosis in experimental myocardial ischemic rats.Methods The myocardial ischemic model of rats was established by subcutaneous injection of isoprenaline (ISO), and early apoptosis rate of myocardial cells and the expression of apoptosis related genes Bax, Bcl-2 and proteins in myocardial tissues were analyzed and contrasted among five groups, including normal control, ISO injury, TPG prevention and treatment, TPG treatment and positive control.Results Compared with ISO injury group, all of indexes had improved in various degrees in TPG prevention and treatment group and TPG treatment group, such as the decrease of early apoptosis rate,expression of Bax gene and protein, the increase of Bcl-2 gene and protein and the ratio of Bcl-2 protein/Bax protein.Conclusion TPG has protective effect on apoptosis in ischemic myocardium induced by ISO.The pharmacological mechanism may relate to the activation of the Bcl-2 gene and protein expression, the inhibition of Bax gene and protein expression, as well as the increase of Bcl-2/Bax ratio.

To induce immune tolerance in recipient rats of allogenic heart transplantation with hydrocamptothecin (HCPT) and cyclosporin A (CsA) and to study the mechanisms of the tolerance, inbred SD rats were chosen as heart donors and Wistar rats as recipients. After transplantation, the recipients were treated with HCPT and/or CsA. The level of cytokine expression was assessed using RT-PCR. The results showed 3 of 10 heart grafts in group C (HCPT 2. 0mg) and 5 of 10 in group E (HCPT+CsA) survived longer than 730 days even immunosup-pression agents (HCPT and CsA) were withdrawn on day 60 after transplantation. Immune tolerance was verified by challenge with SD and SHR rat skin. The levels of IL-2 and IFN-? rnRNA expression were significantly lower in the grafts of tolerant rats than in those of rejected rats, The levels of IL-4 and IL-10 mRNA were significantly higer in the grafts of tolerant rats than in those of rejected rats. The level of cytokine mRNA expression in the grafts was similar to that in spleen of recipients. Our conclusions is high or low dosage of HCPT combined with CsA could induce tolerance in allogenic heart transplantation in rat recipients. Cytokine deviation is one of the mechanisms in allogenic heart transplantation immune tolerance induced by hydrocamptothecin.

Objective] To summarize national famous doctor of traditional Chinese medicine-Wu Liangcun ’s experience about the clinical treatment of ovarian cancer. [Method] By studying and following Professor Wu Liangcun to diagnose, this paper discusses Professor Wu ’s academic views and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer respectively from the aspects such as etiology and pathogenesis, and treatment based on syndrome differentiation. It expounds the characteristics of his prescription and also gives proven cases. [Result]Professor Wu Liangcun proposes that the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer is mainly congenital deficiency and physical weakness resulted from cold coagulation, qi stagnation, blood stasis and phlegmatic hygrosis. All these remain a standstill, gather together and become a disease. He uses the syndrome differentiation method to divide the common ovarian cancer into four types:blood stasis and vital energy retardation, phlegm dampness condensation, deficiency of liver-yin and kidney-yin, asthenia of qi and blood. In the treatment, he organically combines the dialectics and the differentiation of disease; In the selection of drugs, he streamlines the prescription and the drug, which maximizes the efforts of the drugs and has good efforts in clinic.[Conclusion] Professor Wu Liangcun is good at making a diagnosis and giving treatment of ovarian cancer in combination with disease and syndrome, and he uses medicine flexibly. It has a very good effect and practical value for guiding clinic, and it should be promoted.

ObjectiveTo provide a reference for the establishment and appliance of enzyme reference measurement of CK in China by comparing and analyzing the RELA results of CK in IFCC from 2006-2008. Methods The RELA samples of CK were measured according to the reference procedure for the measurement of catalytic activity concentration of CK (37 ℃) ,which had been published by IFCC. The EP5A2 protocol was used for evaluation of the imprecision and ERM was used for verification of the trueness. Results In RELA 2006, the result of sample A was (9. 896 ±0. 112) μkat/L, and the result of sample B was (4.953 ±0. 120) μkat/L. In RELA 2007, the result of sample A was (2.684 ±0.054)μkat/L, and the result of sample B was (8.798 μ0. 101) μkat/L. In RELA 2008, the result of sample A was (10. 523 ±0. 149) μkat/L,and the result of sample B was (10. 551 ±0. 141) μkat/L. The precision of the CK reference method in the year 2006 to 2008 was 0. 92%, 0. 86% and 0. 88% respectively, each of them is less than 1% and the results of ERMs were consistent with the certified value(1. 68 ± 0. 07)μkat/L,which verify the imprecision and accuracy of the reference method. Conclusions All of the results in the continuous three years were in the range of equivalence limits suggested by IFCC. The CK reference method suggested by IFCC has been established and it is getting better.

In this study, we constructed a yeast consortium surface-display expression system by using Flo1 as an anchor protein. Endoglucanase II (EGII) and cellobiohydrolase II (CBHII) from Trichoderma reesei, and β3-glucosidase 1 (BGLI) from Aspergillus aculeatus were immobilized on Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y5. We constructed the cellulose-displaying expression yeast consortium (Y5/fEGII:Y5/fCBHII:Y5/fBGLI = 1:1:1) and investigated the enzymatic ability and ethanol fermentation. The displayed cellulolytic enzymes was stabile during the 96-h fermentation. The yeast consortium produced 0.77 g/L ethanol from 10 g/L phosphoric acid swollen cellulose (PASC) within 96 h. The yield (in grams of ethanol produced per gram of carbohydrate consumed) was 0.35 g/g, which correspond to 68.6% of the theoretical yield.

OBJECTIVE To study the detectable rate and the antibiotic resistance of Staphylococcus aureus from detention needles of burn patients,and provide instruction of clinic reasonably using antibiotics and clinical treatment.METHODS Totally 175 specimens detention needles of from burn patients were collected to isolate pathogenic organisms.Identification of bacterial strains and susceptibility tests were performed by ATB system.RESULTS S.aureus isolated from the detention needles of burn patients was the predominant pathogen,accounted for 60.3%,and all of them were MRSA.Among these flora,all were resistant to penicillins,oxacillin and gentamicin and more than 50.0% were resistant to lincomycin,tetracyc1ine,rifampicin and so on,2.3% were resistant to minocycline and teicoplanin,and none was resistant to vancomycin, fusidic acid,and quinupristin-dalfopristin.CONCLUSIONS S.aureus isolated from the detention needles of burn patients is the predominant pathogen, which is resistant to many antibiotics.So we should identify the bacterial strains and give susceptibility tests of detention needles from burn patients promptly,in order to provide best instruction on clinic reasonably using antibiotics and slow the development of the resistant bacterial flora.

Two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of adiponectin gene (SNP+45 and SNP+276) were screened in Chinese population. The results showed that the distribution of SNP+45 genotypes were significantly different and G/G genotype in type 2 diabetic population appeared more frequently than that in non-diabetic population. It suggests that adiponectin gene seems to be the susceptive gene in Chinese type 2 diabetics.
