Since rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) possess many fine biological characteristics, they have been used in the studies of tumour, gene mapping and evolution. All of these need us to know the high-resolution G-banding pattern of rabbit chromosomes. Primary lung fibroblasts of new born rabbits were cultivated in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 20% new born bovine serum. In order to get the synchronized cells, chemical(MTX, TdR) method and physical (Cold Shock) method were used. By using trypsin-Giemsa banding-technique, we obtained fine high-resolution G-banding karyotypes of rabbit. The bands of rabbit chromosomes were analyzed and described. An idiogram which contains 583 bands of high-resolution G-banding chromosomes of rabbit has been made. The feature of rabbit choromosome bands and the method uesd to get the high resolution banding chromosomes were briefly discussed.

Cardiovascular disease is the most important factor that affect the lifetime of uremia patients. Recently, scientists pay closer attention to study the mechanism of cardiac injury in uremia patients. In this article, we will make an overview on mechanism of cardiac injure caused by uremia toxin, secondary hyperparathyroidism, calcium-phosphorus metabolic disorder, rennin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.

Background The loss of perspiration after a massive deep burn hampers the survivor to lead a life of high quality, as they are deprived the function of regulating body temperature through perspiration during sultry months. With maturation of science of burn care, the number of survivors is increased, therefore, it is imperative that this problem should be tackled in order to improve their quality of life. Objective To explore the possibility of transdifferentiating bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into sweat gland cells (SGCs), and implanting the latter into fresh skin wound to generate functional sweat glands. Methods Human bone marrow MSCs and SGCs were isolated from the same patients. They were identified with specific markers, and then co-cultured. The stem cells which subsequently exhibited the phenotype of sweat gland cells were implanted into scald injured paws of nude mice, and regeneration of functioning sweat glands was confirmed by perspiration test (iodine and starch) and histological examination. A male patient bearing almost iden- tical burn scars on the posterior aspect of both arms was enrolled for clinical trial. The scars were first proved to be anhydrotic with iodine and starch test. With patient's written consent, the clinical trial was carried out. Bone marrow MSCs and sweat gland cells were obtained from the patient. After being heat shocked, the SGCs were co-cultured with MSCs. Three days later, the scars of both arms were excised. MSCs having acquired the phenotype of sweat gland cells after co-culture were evenly spread onto the excision wound on the right arm. They were covered with a piece of acellular allogeneic dermis, which was perforated with numerous micropores. On top of the latter, micrografts of autologous origin were transplanted, and the wound was finally covered with a piece of allogeneic skin graft. The wound on the left side was similarly covered, but without transdifferentiated MSCs. After complete healing of the wounds, perspiration test with iodine and starch was performed, and biopsy was taken from the MSCs transplanted area. The components of the sweat collected from the implantation area were analyzed and compared with that from normal skin elsewhere on the body. The same procedure was performed in a girl patient with a chin-neck contracture. The scar was totally excised, and into one third of the excision wound in vitro transdifferentiated MSCs were implanted similar to the above patient. The examinations were repeated after wound healed. Results In the animal experiment, it was shown that there was regeneration of functional sweat glands in the burned paws of the nude mice. In human patients, all wounds healed nicely. The areas where transdifferented MSCs were implanted showed positive iodine-starch perspiration test. Histological and immunohistochemical examination confirmed that the transformed MSCs bore the specific marker carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) of sweat gland cells. Biochemical analysis of the excreted sweat contained similar components as that of sweat collected from normal skin. Conclusions MSCs can be transdifferentiated into SGCs in vitro, and they can be implanted into a fresh wound to form functional sweat glands. However, enormous amount of work should be done before the same result would be realized in patients with massive deep burn within a short duration after the injury, so that the patients could regain the function of perspiration after surviving the massive loss of normal skin.

Objective To evaluate the effects of combined detection of sputum and serum procalcitonin (PCT) to identify the etiology of community acquired pneumonia(CAP) in infants.Methods Retrospective analysis from August 2010 to September 2012 enrolled 435 patients with definitely etiological diagnosis of CAP.The all cases were divided into three groups according to the etiological diagnosis:243 cases of bacterial infection group(including mixed bacterial infection),106 cases of viral infection group,and 86 cases of mycoplasma infection group.Sputum and serum PCT levels in all cases were detected,with simultaneous detection of blood leukocytes,C-reactive protein levels.Results Sputum PCT level of bacterial infection group [(8.44 ± 1.08) ng/ml] was significantly higher than viral infection group [(0.32 ±0.12) ng/ml] and mycoplasma infection group [(0.24 ± 0.17) ng/ml],which showed statistically significant difference (F =765.03,P ＜0.01).Serum PCT level of bacterial infection group [(6.69 ± 1.36) ng/ml] was also higher than viral infection group [(0.37 ± 0.22) ng/ml] and mycoplasma infection group [(0.42 ± 0.28) ng/ml],the difference of which was statistically significant (F =240.46,P ＜ 0.01).Meanwhile between the viral infection group and mycoplasma infection group,sputum PCT and serum PCT showed no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).The levels of blood leukocytes and C-reactive protein among 3 groups showed no statistically significant difference(P ＞ 0.05).As the critical value of the PCT ＞ 0.5ng/ml,the positive rates of sputum and serum PCT were significant difference in bacterial infection group (86.83％ vs 73.66％,x2 =13.92,P ＜0.05).The sensitivity of diagnosing bacterial CAP by sputum and serum PCT levels were 86.83％ and 73.66％,the specificity were 86.98％ and 88.54％,respectively.The sensitivity and specificity of combined detection sputum and serum PCT were 72.02％ and 94.27％.Conclusion Combined detection of sputum and serum PCT has clinical value and efficiency in pathogen identification of CAP.

Objective To study the subchronic toxicity of sodium fluoride on mRNA expression of estrogen receptor(ER) in female mice.Methods Forty female mice were randomly divided into 4 groups according to body mass,10 in each group,and exposed to sodium fluoride solution(0,1,5,25 mg/L) through drinking water in control,low-dose,medium-dose and high-dose groups for 12 weeks.The expression levels of ERα,ER3 mRNA in ovarian tissues were determined by RT-PCR method.Results The relative expression levels of ERα,ERβ mRNA in control,low-,medium-and high-dose groups were 0.7028 + 0.0474,0.7195 ± 0.0552,0.6479 ± 0.0590,0.5684 ± 0.0513 and 0.8418 ± 0.0131,0.7729 ± 0.0974,0.7610 ± 0.0984,0.8026 ± 0.0234,respectively.The difference between high-dose and control groups of the expression level of ERα was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The subchronic toxicity of fluoride can decrease the expression of estrogen receptor in ovarian tissue,which may have a certain effect on reproductive development of female mice.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of lentivirus-mediated silencing information regulation protein 6(SIRT6)overexpression on radioactive lung injury in rats.Methods 72 male 150-200 g Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups(n=24).The 6 MV-X-ray linear accelerator was used to irradiate the lungs.The rats in each group were injected with normal saline(TNF-α)were measured at 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks after radiotherapy(Lent-SIRT6), and the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-IL-6 and IL-1β were measured by HE staining.The levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in liver tissue were detected by HE staining.The levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in liver tissue were detected by HE staining.Results The alveolar wall and alveolar stroma were normal in the control group.The alveolar wall of the irradiated group was thickened and fibrosis, and a large number of hypertrophic fibrous tissues were found in the alveolar stroma.The alveolar wall of Lent-SIRT6 group was thickened And alveolar stromal fibrosis symptoms were lighter than the irradiation group.Compared with the control group, the levels of serum TNF-α and IL-6, neutrophil count and the levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in the liver tissue were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05).The lentiviruses overexpressing SIRT6 could alleviate the abnormalities caused by radiation (P<0.05).The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion SIRT6 can effectively inhibit the inflammatory reaction, reduce the lung injury symptoms of radiation pneumonia, and have some protective and prevention effect on lung injury.
