The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate the protective effect of continuous potassic warm blood perfusion on myocardium during warm blood extraeorporeal circalation. Warm blood cardiopulmonary bypass and continuous potassic warm blood perfusion for myocardial protection were used in 39 cases undergoing coronary bypass. 15% potassium chloride was mixed with oxygenated warm blood for continuous myocardial perfusion to induce cardiac arrest. The average nasopharyngeal temperature was maintained at 33.5℃. The warm blood was delivered at a rate of 150 to 200 ml/min; 15% potassium chloride was pumped at a high flow rate of 120 to 160 ml/h and then at a low flow rate of 15 to 20ml/h when electrocardiogram showed straight line. The results showed that 38 cases (97.4%) had spontaneous return of normal sinus rhythm shortly after removal of the aortic crossclamp. Myocardial positive inotropic agents were seldom used and hemodynamics kept stable. Cardiac functions showed fast recovery and there were not serious complications such as perioperative myocardial infarction, low output syndrome and arrhythmia. It is indicated that continuous potassic warm blood perfusion for myocardial protection may have a remarkable results to prevent myocardial anoxemia and reperfusion injury during CPB.

Objective Clinical application of electrons often involves some beam in which the field size varies with the applicators. The work was done to understand the electron beam characteristics in different field sizes. Methods Percent depth dose and the dose output factor were measured for square and rectangular fields at 100?cm source to surface distance ( SSD ) . Central axis percent depth dose (PDD) measurements were made using the RFA 300 three dimensional radiation field analyzer with a shielded p type diode detector . The dose output factors were measured with the RFA 300 three dimensional radiation field analyzer with a PTW 0.1?cm 3 chamber and a Farmer 2570/1 dosimeter with a 2571 ion chamber in a water phantom. Results The measurements showed that the depth dose curves and the output factors were sometimes dependent on how the field sizes were formed. The change in depth dose with field size was more pronounced in the high energy beams than the low energy ones. However, the output factor did not show any systematic energy dependence because each applicator had it's own X ray jaw setting at each energy. Conclusions When using small inserted apertures to treat small lesions, we should verify the conformation of depth dose and output factors. In this case, we should use applicator dependent output factors at each energy to calculate the monitor units for irradiation.

Objective To study the characteristics of child acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) immuno-phenotype and evaluate its diagnosis value. Methods Direct immunofluorescence staining and CD45/Side Scatter (SSC) gating of flow cytometry were used for immunophenotyping in 111 cases of child ALL. The relation of mor-phology and immunology classification was analyzed. Results Three categories could be identified,including 81 ca-ses (73.0%) of B lineage ALL, 16 cases (14.4%) of T lineage ALL and 14 cases (12.6% ) of B/T lineage ALL. There were 25 cases (22.5% ) of ALL expressing myeloid-associated antigens. According to the FAB Morphology classification,59 cases (53.2%) of L1 type and 47 cases (42.3%) of L2 type were diagnosed. The two cases (1.8%) of L3 type were classified as one case of null-ALL and one case of B-ALL. One case (0.9%)of acute my-eloblastic leukemia (AML-M2a) was identified as null-ALL. The two cases that could not be diagnosed by FAB clas-sification were c-ALL. Conclusion The immunophenotyping helps to identify the character of leukemia with an im-portant value in diagnosis of child ALL.

Objective To evaluate the effect of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) protein transduction on acute lung injury in septic rats.Methods Eighteen healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 7-9 weeks,weighing 210-260 g,were randomly allocated into 3 groups (n =6 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group Sham),sepsis group (group Sep),and fusion protein PEP-1-HO-1 group (group HO).Sepsis was produced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP).In group HO,PEP-1-HO-1 fusion protein 0.6 mg was injected via the left iliac vein at 1 h before CLP and 5 h after CLP.The equal volume of normal saline was given instead of PEP-1-HO-1 in Sham and Sep groups.At 12 h after CLP,blood samples were collected from the right common carotid artery for measurement of serum tumor necrosis factoralpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) concentrations.The rats were then sacrificed,and lungs were removed for microscopic examination and for determination of wet/dry lung weight ratio (W/D ratio) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content (by thiobarbituric acid colorimetric method).Results Compared with group Sham,the W/D ratio and MDA content were significantly increased,the serum TNF-α and IL-6 concentrations were significantly increased (P＜0.05),and the pathological changes were significantly aggravated in Sep and HO groups.Compared with group Sep,the W/D ratio and MDA content were significantly decreased,the serum TNF-α and IL-6 concentrations were significantly decreased (P＜0.05),and the pathological changes were significantly attenuated in group HO.Conclusion HO-1 protein transduction can attenuate acute lung injury in septic rats,and the mechanism is probably related to inhibition of lipid peroxidation in lung tissues and systemic inflammatory responses.

Objective To examine the prevalence of plasmid mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) genes and their correlation with the genes encoding β-lactamases in E.coli isolates.Methods A total of 200 levofloxacin-and/or ciprofloxacin-resistant E.coli isolates were collected from Fujian Medical University Union Hospital during the period from July to December 2013.PCR method was used to screen these E.coli isolates for the presence of qnrA,qnrB,qnrC,qnrD,qnrS,aac(6')-Ib-cr,qepA,oqxAB genes,and the blaTEM,blasnv and blacTx-M genes in the PMQR positive strains.Agar dilution method was utilized to measure the antimicrobial susceptibility of PMQR-positive strains.Phylogenetic analysis was conducted by triplex PCR.Enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus-polymerase chain reaction (ERIC-PCR) was used to evaluate the genetic similarity between the PMQR-positive isolates.Results Of the 200 clinical isolates of E.coli,58 (29.0％)were PMQR-positive.And qnr,aac(6')-Ib-cr,oqxAB,and qepA genes were positive in 11 (5.5％),41 (20.5％),16 (8.0％),1 (0.5％) strains,respectively.The genes encoding CTX-M-1,CTX-M-9 and TEM type enzymes was positive in 32 (55.2％),17 (29.3％),and 1 (1.7％) of the PMQR-positive strains,respectively.The blasHv gene was not identified in any isolate.PMQR-positive strains were multi-drug resistant.Phylogenetic analysis indicated that 21 (36.2％),17 (29.3％),11 (19.0％),and 9 (15.5％) of the PMQR-positive strains belonged to group A,group D,group B2 and group B 1,respectively.ERIC-PCR suggested the PMQR-positive isolates belonged to 50 different types.Only one strain was non-typeable.Conclusions Most of the PMQR-related genes in E.coli are aac(6')-Ib-cr,qnr,and oqxAB in our hospital,which are highly relevant to β-1actamase genes.PMQR-positive strains may spread by way of non-clonal dissemination in our hospital.

Objective:To investigate the effect of IL-35 on inflammatory response and T cell response in allergic rhinitis.Methods: 37 patients(observation group) with allergic rhinitis and 35 healthy volunteers(control group) after allergen detection of allergic rhinitisin in our hospital from Jan 2012 to Jan 2016 were selected as study subjects.The peripheral blood of observation group and control group were collected,and the serum levels of IL-35 were detected by ELISA.The animal model of allergic rhinitis in mice was established,the peripheral blood of mice was collected,and the serum level of IL-35 and IgE were detected by ELISA.The eosinophils that infiltrated in nasal mucosa were detected after tissue biopsy in mice.The mouse spleen cells were isolated and the ovalbumin antigen was added in the culture medium,IL-35 was or was not added into the culture medium,the ovalbumin specific T cell responses was detected.The cytokines IL-2,IL-4,IL-5,IL-10,IL-13,IL-17,IL-23,IL-27 and TNF-α in culture supernatant of ovalbumin specific T cells were detected by ELISA.The expression of IL-2,IL-4,IL-5,IL-10,IL-13,IL-17,IL-23,IL-27 and TNF-α in ovalbumin specific T cells were detected by Real-time PCR.The activation of JNK,Erk1/2 and p38 signal pathway in ovalbumin specific T cells were detected by Western blot.Results: The serum level of IL-35 in observation group was significantly lower than control group(P<0.05).The results showed that the number of eosinophils which infiltrated in AR mice nasal mucosa was significantly higher than normal mice(P<0.05),while the serum level of IL-35 in AR mice was significantly lower than normal mice(P<0.05).Ovalbumin specific T cell reactivity assay showed that IL-35 could significantly inhibit the T cell response.ELISA and Real-time PCR results showed that IL-35 could significantly down regulate the expression of IL-4,IL-5,IL-13,IL-17,IL-23 and TNF-α,and up regulate the expression of IL-2,IL-10 and IL-27.The Western blot results showed that IL-35 can inhibit the activation of JNK,Erk1/2 and p38 signal pathway of ovalbumin specific T in cells.Conclusion: IL-35 can regulate the expression of inflammatory cytokines in inflammatory response and inhibit T cell response,thus reducing allergic rhinitis,the mechanism may be through regulation of JNK,Erk1/2 and p38 signal pathway activation.

Objective To investigate the effects of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) protein transduction mediated by cell penetrating peptide PEP-1 on intestinal injury in a rat model of sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP).Methods Twenty-four healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 7-9 weeks,weighing 210-260 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =6 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),group CLP,low-dose fusion protein PEP-1-HO-1 + CLP group (group P1) and high-dose fusion protein PEP-1-HO-1 + CLP group (group P2).Fusion protein PEP-1-HO-1 0.3 mg was administrated via the left iliac vein at 1 h before CLP and 5 h after CLP in group P1.Fusion protein PEP-1-HO-1 0.6 mg was administrated via the left iliac vein at 1 h before CLP and 5 h after CLP in group P2.The equal volume of normal saline was given instead of PEP-1-HO-1 in the other groups.The animals underwent laparotomy,but the caecum was not ligated or punctured in group S.Blood samples were collected at 12 h after CLP from the right common carotid artery for measurement of serum TNF-α and IL-6 levels.The rats were then sacrificed and intestines were removed for microscopic examination and for determination of malondialdehyde (MDA) content and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in intestinal tissues.Results Compared with group S,the serum TNF-α and IL-6 levels,and MDA content in intestinal tissues were significantly increased,while SOD activity in intestinal tissues was decreased in CLP,P1 and P2 groups.Compared with group CLP,the serum TNF-α and IL-6 levels,and MDA content in intestinal were significantly decreased,while SOD activity in intestinal tissues was increased in P1 and P2 groups.Compared with group P1,the serum TNF-α and IL-6 levels,and MDA content in intestinal tissues were significantly decreased,while SOD activity in intestinal tissues was increased in group P2.The pathological changes of intestines were significantly mitigated in P1 and P2 groups as compared with group CLP.Conclusion HO-1 protein transduction attenuates intestinal injury induced by sepsis in rats,and the mechanism is related to inhibition of systemic inflammatory responses and lipid peroxidation in intestinal tissues.

BACKGROUND:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells have the potential of self-proliferation and multi-directional differentiation, while mesenchymal stem cells are few in adult bone marrow. In vitro purification, amplification and osteoinduction are very important for the research of bone tissue engineering. OBJECTIVE:To establish a simple and reliable in vitro cultivation and identification system of adult bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, and to induce the mesenchymal stem cells to differentiate into osteoblasts. METHODS:Bone marrow were extracted from adult anterior superior iliac, the density gradient centrifugation and adhesion method were used to isolate, purify, culture and amplify the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Osteogenic medium was prepared by mixing appropriate amount of dexamethasone,β-glycerophosphate and ascorbic acid C. The cells were divided into osteoinduction group and blank control group for observation.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Adult bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were in typical long spindle-shape. The cells grew into rapid proliferation phase at 8-11 days and the growth curve was S-shape. CD44 and CD90 were in positive expression, while CD34 and CD45 were negative. The alkaline phosphatase activity was increased with culturing time prolonging, and reached the summit at the 12th day. The alkaline phosphatase activities of osteoinduction group were higher than those in the blank control group at different time points. These results suggested that in vitro cultivation, identification and osteoinduction system could obtain mesenchymal stem cells with high purity and good osteogenic differentiation capacity.
