Objective To investigate the effect of glutaminase 1(GLS1)specific inhibitor BPTES[bis-2-（5-phenylacetamido-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl）ethyl sulfide]on the liver fibrosis in the mouse model of liver fibrosis induced by carbon tetrachloride(CCl4).Methods Male C57BL/6J mice were intraperitoneally injected with olive oil(control group),10%CCl4(10 μL/g,model group)or 10% CCl4(10 μL/g)+ BPTES(10 mg/kg,treatment group),with 10 mice in each group,two doses a week for four weeks to establish liver fibrosis model. Collagen deposition in mouse liver tissue was observed by Sirius red staining. The expression levels of actin alpha 2(Acta2),collagen typeⅠalpha 1(Col1a1)GLS1 and GLS1 protein were detected by qRT-PCR and immunohistochemical staining.Results Compared with the control group,the liver tissue of mice in the model group was generally enlarged,the surface was not smooth and granular,and the ratio of liver mass to tibia length significantly increased(t = 2. 979,P < 0. 05);The Sirius red positive area of collagen deposition increased signifi-cantly in the liver tissue of mice in the model group(t = 7. 661,P < 0. 01),the relative expression levels of Acta2 and Col1a1 significantly increased(t = 4. 335 and 5. 319,respectively,each P < 0. 01),and the mRNA and protein levels of GLS1 significantly increased(t = 5. 319 and 9. 725,respectively,each P < 0. 01). However,compared with the model group,the BPTES treatment group had a reduction in liver mass,a significant reduction in the Sirius red positive area of collagen deposition in liver tissue(t = 7. 427,P < 0. 01),and a significant reduction in the relative expressions of Atca2 and Col1a1(t = 3. 713 and 2. 628,respectively,each P < 0. 05).Conclusion Inhibition of GLS1activity can significantly improve the degree of liver fibrosis induced by CCl4,providing a new idea for the treatment of liver fibrosis.

Objective To create a sterilized condition in field operation and the daily grind avoiding the intercross contamination between the experimentation and outside. Methods The air in the experimentation was filtrated by primary and advanced filter. High intense ultraviolet was used to sterilize the air, and negative compression was kept in the experiment condition. Results Hyperpurificatory biosafety cabinet guaranteed the sterilization condition in field operation and the daily grind, avoiding the intercross contamination. Conclusion Hyperpurificatory biosafety cabinet can be used in medical treatment, pharmacy, food industry, electrical industry, instrumentation, bioengineering, scientific tests, especially biology species identification in biological warfare.

According to the medical support missions of our hospital,a new management mode for medical support equipment is proposed including both warehouse management and daily supervision. This kind of management bases itself on peace time and focuses on war time.

Objective:To study the role of adenoviral-mediated PTEN gene transfection in reversing drug resistance of trastuzumab-resistant human breast cancer.Methods:Recombinant adenoviruses carrying PTEN gene(AdPTEN) were constructed and transfected into trastuzumab-resistant human breast cancer cell line BT474.Proliferation and apoptosis of BT474 cells treated with AdPTEN and trastuzumab were measured by MTT assay and FCM.Time course of BT474 cells apoptosis induced by AdPTEN was analyzed by detection of DNA fragmentation.Western blotting was employed to measure phosphorylated-Akt expression levels in AdPTEN treated BT474 cells.The nude mice model of BT474 cells was employed to observe the effects of AdPTEN and trastuzumab on trastuzumab-resistant human breast cancer in vivo.The expression of PTEN gene,cancer cells apoptosis and ultrastructural changes were evaluated after the mice were sacrificed.Results:We successfully constructed recombinant AdPTEN;and the titer of the recombinant adenovirus was about 4.2?1011TCID50/ml.PTEN gene expression was identified by PCR,RT-PCR and Western blotting assay.Combinatorial AdPTEN and trastuzumab significantly suppressed the proliferation of BT474 cells and induced the apoptosis.The percentage of apopotosis cells treated with AdPTEN was(20.7?5.82)%,companied by cells cycle arrest in G1 phrase(P

Objective To research a more effective method of full-text retrieval of electronic care record (ECR), which avails clinical work, medical research and ECR management. Methods Based on full -text retrieval by keyword, by changing the form of ECR with XML,a full-text retrieval system of ECR based on Lucene was built. Results The system testing showed that the precision ratio of ECR retrieval was raised. Conclusion The full-text retrieval system of ECR meets the design requirements and the function needs.

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors(PPAR) belong to the nuclear hormone receptor family.They have been implicated as important regulators of various physiological processes,such as lipid and lipoprotein metabolism and inflammation.This article reviews the structure of PPARs,their activity regulation and ligands and their correlation with lung diseases.
