1.Applications of proteomics in laboratory medicine
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2009;32(2):125-129
With the progress of technology in separation and identification, proteomics is now widely applied in biomedicine.Because of the powerful ability to research differential protein expression and posttranslational modifications between normal and pathological samples on large scale level, proteomics provides the possibilities to screen biomarkers for diagnosis, therapy or prognosis of diseases.
2.The use of pulmonary surfactant in children with acute respiratory distress syndrome
Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2017;24(2):87-91
Pulmonary surfactant is a complex mixture of lipoproteins synthesized,secreted and recy-cled by type Ⅱ alveolar cells. The primary function of PS is to minimize the surface tension at the alveolar air-liquid interface. Surfactant dysfunction with quantitative and qualitative abnormalities of both phospholipids and proteins are characteristics of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome ( ARDS ) . Exogenous surfactant replacement shows consistent improvements in gas exchange,but had limited success in improving survival. These may be due to variety of aetiologies in ARDS、surfactant compositiones, delivery methods, optimal time and doses. At this time,surfactant therapy cannot be recommended as routine therapy in pediatric ARDS.

Objective To investigate the incidence,etiology and risk factors of cardiorespiratory arrest (CRA) in pediatric emergency room and preliminarily evaluate the efficacy of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).Methods The unified,standard in-hospital Utstein style was used for data collection with filling answers in the questionnaire.The survey items included the causes of cardiorespiratory arrest and the factors influencing the efficacy of CPR.The restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) was used to evaluate short-term efficacy of CPR.Results Totally 182 380 patients aged from 28 days to 18 years were admitted to emergency room of Beijing Children' s Hospital between July 1,2008 and February 28,2010.Of them,237 patients (0.13%) were subjected to cardiorespiratory arrest,of which 169 patients received CPR and 88 patients (52.1%) got sustained ROSC.Neither sex nor age distribution affected ROSC.The primary cause of CRA and kind of initial abnormal rhythm of heartbeat leading to CRA were associated with the rate of ROSC.The rates of ROSC occurred in patients with or without pre-hospital transport were 64.1% and 44.8%,respectively.The rate of ROSC was closely related to time consumed for getting ROSC by CPR,and as CPR durations were ≤ 10 min,10 to 30 min,and > 30 min,the rates of ROSC were 67.5%,61.4% and 30.5%,respectively.Multiple stepwise logistic regression analysis showed that kind of initial abnormal rhythm and CPR duration were associated with the rate of ROSC.Conclusions The incidence of CRA in emergency was 0.13%,and the rate of ROSC after CPR was 52.1%.The kind of initial abnormal rhythm of heartbeat and CPR duration were independent factors associated with the rate of ROSC.

AIM: To investigate the effect of mifepristone on natural killer(NK) subpopulations of peripheral blood and decidua in early pregnancy. METHODS: Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression of CD56 and CD16 on lymphocytes of decidua and peripheral blood in early pregnancy, mifepristone-treated pregnancy. RESULTS: The percentages of different natural killer subsets in peripheral blood between early pregnancy and mifepristone-treated pregnancy were almost identical. The serum levels of estradiol and progesterone in mifepristone-treated pregnancy were slightly higher than in early pregnancy. The percentage of decidual CD56+NK cell in early pregnancy was significantly higher than in mifepristone-treated pregnancy. The CD56+NK cells were predominant lymphocyte population of decidua in mifepristone-treated pregnancy, but in which the CD56+CD16+ and CD16+NK cells were major lymphocyte subpopulations of peripheral blood. CONCLUSION: Mifepristone acted principally on feto-maternal interface, it blocked the proliferation and differentiation of decidual CD56+NK cells and induced embryo immune rejection.

Objective To investigate the effects of laser irradiation on intracellular ROS(reactive oxidant species),intracellular calcium concentration(_i,and cell membrane integrity in the process of live cell imaging with confocal laser scanning microscopy. Methods The effects of a given laser irradiation on ROS,intracellular calcium concentration(_i and cell viability were revealed respectively by stained ECV-304 with H_2DCFDA,Fluo-4AM and calcein-AM/PI,and visualized and analyzed using ultra view LCI(live cell image)confocal microscopy. Results The irradiation of 488nm laser induced fluorescent intensity of DCF to increase abruptly and attain the climax in about 80 seconds,afterwards the fluorescent intensity fell and returned to the baseline.In the 70 minutes of the irradiation,the fluorescent intensity of intracellular Fluo-4 kept a slightly ascending tendency.The fluorescent intensity of calcein decreased 15minutes after the irradiation,and serval cells were PI positively stained.Conclusion 488nm laser irradiation induces intracellular reactive oxidant species(ROS) and calcium concentration to increase,but there is no significant influence on cell membrane integrity.
