Feeding adult male rats with gossypol acetic acid at a dose of 15 nig/kg/day for 50 days led to infertility. Spermatogenesis and sperm motility were impaired ( table 1 ) . However, testosterone, K+ and Na+ concentsrations in serum and RTF were found to be unchanged (table 2, 3 ) . It suggests that at low antifertility doses gossypol disrupts spermatogenesis in the seminiferous epithelium without affecting testosterone, K+ and Na+ secretion and translation in testis.

We have evaluated the plague epidemic situation in the Three Rivers Source Region,Qinghai Province in recent 20 years to provide the basis for revising the plague prevention countermeasures.We have analyzed the time distribution and the plague epidemic situation between animals and human beings during twenty years in the Three Rivers Source Region,Qinghai Province by describing epidemiology.The animal plague in the natural source of Marmot plague was extremely serious in the Three Rivers Source Region during the past 20 years.It mainly distributes in Yushu State and Tanggula County,Germu City and the serious season ran through the whole period of marmot camp ground activities and the peak was between June and August.Human plague epidemic took place between May and October each year and reached its peak between July and September.The peak covered about 41.67% at most.It mainly endemic distributes in Nangqian and Xinghai Country.During the past 20 years,we have totally found 14 human plague epidemics in the Three Rivers Source Region,among which 48 cases took place and there were deaths of 17 cases.The fatality rate was 35.42%.The lung type was the majority among 48 cases,which startde with the glandular type.During the past 20 years the plague epidemic has been active and the animal plague epidemic broke out continuously in the Three Rivers Source Region,Qinghai Province.The variety of animals and insects infected the plague epidemic was increasing.The human plague epidemics is most serious with high fatality rate,but it is on the decline as a whole.

Objective:
To investigate the distribution and resistance of pathogens isolated from blood cultures in patients with hematological malignancies after chemotherapy in Union Hospital of Fujian Medical University so as to understand the real situation of blood stream infection (BSI) and provide the basis for rational use of antibiotics in clinic.
Methods:
The data of 657 strains isolated from blood culture specimens of patients with hematological malignancies from January 2013 to December 2016 were collected analyzed.
Results:
A total of 657 cases of blood culture positive bacterial strains were included in the study, involving 410 cases (62.4%) with single Gram-negative bacteria (G- bacteria) , 163 cases (24.8%) with single Gram-positive bacteria (G+ bacteria) , 50 cases (7.6%) with single fungi. The most common 5 isolates in blood culture were

Objective To investigate the effect of infusion of spleen lymphocytes treated by extracorporeal photochemotherapy on the regulatory T cell (Treg)and survival time of skin allograft in mice. Methods The skin allograft model in mice was established with C57BL/6 mice as donors and BALB/c mice as recipients. The spleen lymphocytes (CSP,BSP)in mice C57BL/6 and BALB/c were isolated,and the mice spleen lymphocytes (PUVA-SP) treated with 8-methoxypsoralen plus ultraviolet (PUVA)were prepared. The experimental animals were randomly divided into 5 groups according to the compositions infused into the recipients through vein:PUVA-BSP,PUVA-CSP,BSP,CSP and phosphate buffer solution (PBS)control groups (n=12 in each group). All recipients of each group were injected with PUVA-BSP,PUVA-CSP,BSP,CSP or PBS on day 7 before the operation,on the operation day and day 7 after the operation through the tail vein,respectively. The survival time of graft in the recipients was observed,and the expression of CD4 +CD25 +Foxp3 +Treg in peripheral blood was detected. Results After skin allograft,the rate of CD4 +CD25 +Foxp3 +Treg in peripheral blood of the recipients in PUVA-BSP group and PUVA-CSP group was significantly higher than those of BSP, CSP and PBS control groups. The rate of CD4 +CD25 +Foxp3 +Treg in PUVA-CSP group was higher than that of PUVA-BSP group,while BSP and CSP groups were lower than that of PBS control group. The survival time of skin graft in the recipients in PUVA-BSP group and PUVA-CSP group was significantly longer than that of BSP,CSP and PBS control groups (all P<0.05 ). Conclusions Sufficient infusion of PUVA-SP can induce more CD4 +CD25 +Foxp3 +Treg in the recipients and prolong survival time of skin graft significantly.
