1.Activated expression of matrix metalloproteinase is involved in the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells induced by lipopolysaccharide
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2015;(24):3865-3869
BACKGROUND:Matrix metal oproteinases and their inhibitors are proteolytic enzymes contaning Zn+, and involved in extracel ular matrix degradation and tissue remodeling of a variety of tissues. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of matrix metal oproteinases in the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cel s induced by lipopolysaccharide. METHODS:MC3T3-E1 cel line was divided into four groups randomly:control group, low-dose lipopolysaccharide group (1μmol/L), moderate-dose lipopolysaccharide group (10μmol/L), and high-dose lipopolysaccharide group (100μmol/L). The proliferation rate in each group was analyzed. Matrix metal oproteinase 2, 3, 9 and matrix metal oproteinase inhibitor 1 and 2 expressions were detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The proliferation rate was increased greatly after medication of lipopolysaccharide in time-dependent and concentration-dependent manners. Moreover, the expressions of matrix metal oproteinases and their inhibitors were apparently enhanced, and showed significant differences. Results indicate that the enhanced expressions of matrix metal oproteinases participated in the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cel s induced by lipopolysaccharide.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the application of antibacterials in patients accepted operation in grass-roots(hospitals),so to standardize the application of antibacterials and cut down the medical cost.METHODS Full-time administrators for nosocomial infection investigated the application of antibacterials in patients who accepted(operation) in Sep 2004,and filled in the questionnaires.RESULTS In 1 383 cases of 11 hospitals the application rate of antibacterials was 98.63%;in which 86.50% were for prophylactic usage and 13.50% for therapeutic usage;(29.90%) for single antibiotics treatment and 50.15% for bigeminy,18.70% were for trigeminy.Time of(application) differentiated(6.90,7.00,6.60d) fromⅠto Ⅲ kinds of operation.Per capita cost of antibacterials was $956.50(47.60%).CONCLUSIONS High cost of antibacterials results from such factors as multiple kinds,long time and(combined) application.

Objective To explore the clinical effects of enema combined with massage therapy on jaundice in premature infants.Methods Seventy-five premature infants with jaundice were randomly divided into 3 groups,enema combined message therapy group(group A),abdominal massage therapy group(group B),and double-side phototherapy group(group C).All 3 groups were received the same formula fee-ding,intravenous nutrition and identical drug treatment.Group A was given enema with mixed kaiselu and normal saline together with 60 times clockwise abdominal massage once a day for 2 weeks.Group B only received abdominal massage twice per day for 2 weeks.Transcutaneous bilirubin(TB) indexes of all the premature infants in the 3 groups were detected and transformed into total TB concentrations every morning,through version of MINOLTA JM-102 transcutaneous bilirubin radiometer made in Japan.When TB index counted more than 196.58 ?mol/L,group A and B were given single-side phototherapy for 24 hours.Neither enema nor abdominal massage was given to group C,and double-side phototherapy was applied when TB indexes were above 196.58 ?mol/L.Daily TB indexes,duration of jaundice and phototherapy,time of meconium exhaustion,defecation times in each day,incidence of constipation and feeding intolerance were recorded.Results Duration of jaunhospitalized and phototherapy were significantly shortened in group A compared with those of the other groups.In 34 premature infants who were hospital for at least 2 weeks,TB indexes in group C were lower than those in group B on the 9th day.On the 12th day and the 14th day,TB indexes in group A and C were lower than those in group B(Pa

Objective To explore the effects of coincident infection on treatment response and coronary artery lesion (CAL) outcome in children with Kawasaki disease(KD).Methods A retrospective study of 141 children diagnosed on KD between Jul.2005 and Dec.2006 were performed.Standardized clinical assessments,laboratory examinations microbiology test results plus treatment regimens were reviewed.CAL were visualized by using echocardiography.Infectious agents positive (INF+) and negative (INF-) groups were identified,and clinical assessments,laboratory and treatment data were analyzed.Results 1.Concurrent infections:41%(58/141) of children had one of above confirmed infection at KD diagnosis.2.Treatment response:the presence of infection did not alter the response to treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG),with resolution of fever within 72 h in 85% (120/141) children after 1 dose of IVIG (2 g/kg) together with aspirin administration regardless of present or absent infection.3.CAL outcome:in total,56.0% (79/141) of children developed CAL at the time of diagnosis,involving dilatation (91.1%,72/79 cases) and aneurysm (8.9%,7/79 cases),and no giant aneurysm was found.Most CAL were recovered within 1 year after treatment.Incidence of aneurysm in INF+ group was significantly higher than that in INF-group (P=0.019).Conclusions Coincident infection would not affect on the clinical assessment,laboratory test results and treatment response to IVIG in children with KD,but would result in higher risk of serious CAL.Therefore,children with infection at diagnosis on KD will not only accept active treatment in acute phase,but also insist on convalescent care and follow-up visit.

ObjectiveThe purpose of the present study was to discuss the method to avoid spillage by means of adding chemotherapeutic drugs into sealed transfusion bottles.Methods90 penicillin sealed bottles of the same batch number were randomly divided into the test group and the control group,each with 45 bottles.Standard method according to Basic Nursing was used to add chemotherapeutic drugs into transfusion bottles in the control group.Drugs were added into transfusion bottles under negative pressure in the test group.The operating time was measured,the spillage volume of puncture site was calculated and microbial detection of syringe was observed in the two groups.ResultsThere was a significant difference in the spillage volume of puncture site between the two groups (P<0.01),but no difference was seen in the operating time and microbial detection of syringe (P>0.05),ConclusionsThe spillage volume of puncture site was reduced significantly by means of adding chemotherapeutic drugs into transfusion bottles under negative pressure.This can decrease chemotherapeutic professional exposing risks and drug wastage.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the level of 8-iso-prostaglandin (8-iso-PG)F2αand the neural functional deficit in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI). Methods Sixty-seven ACI patients were se-lected in Neurological Department of Ganyu People’s Hospital. According to the age, these subjects were divided into two groups:the old group (≥60 years, n=37) and middle-young group (<60 years, n=30). Thirty healthy subjects were selected as controls (≥60 years). The age, gender and anamnesis were matched in two groups of elderly people. The ELISA was used to detect the plasma levels of 8-iso-PGF2αin two groups of patients. And NIHSS score was used to evaluate the severity of clinical neurological deficit. Results The plasma levels of 8-iso-PGF2α were significantly higher in old ACI group (506.38±138.63) ng/L than those of middle-young ACI group (420.18±132.72) ng/L and old control group (369.98±99.81) ng/L. There was no significant difference in plasma level of 8-iso-PGF2αbetween middle-young ACI group and old control group (F=9.272,P<0.05). The NIHSS score was significantly higher in old group (19.78±3.66) than that of middle-young group (17.73 ± 2.70, t=2.539,P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between plasma 8-iso-PGF2α level and NIHSS score in old group (r=0.504,P=0.001). Conclusion The oxidative stress plays an important role in the occurrence and de-velopment process of ACI in elderly patients. The earlier and reasonable antioxidant therapy plays a positive role to alleviate the clinical symptoms and promote the recovery of illness.

AIM: To study the expression of MDM2 and muta nt-type P53 proteins in primary hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). METHODS: Using immunohistochemical staining method(SP),the expression of mutant-t ype P53 and MDM2 proteins was examined in 55 cases of HCC,23 cases of correspond ing paracancerous tissues and 10 cases of normal hepatic tissues. RESULT S: The frequencies of MDM2 and P53 positive expression in HCC were 17/55 (30 9%) and 23/55 (41 8%), respectively. There was both positive expression of MDM2 and mutant-type P53 in 11 cases (20%) with HCC. Expression of MDM2 showed a significantly positive correlation with expression of mutant-type P53 (r=0 310,P
