Aim To discuss the repairing mechanism of Qinbai Qingfei Concentrated pellets to lung tissue of rats infected by mycoplasma. Method 60 Wistar rats weighting 80~100 g, male to female:1 ∶ 1) were di-vided into six groups randomly ( 10 rats in each group): blank group, model group, positive group, the high、middle and low dose groups of Qinbai Qingfei Concentrated pellets. Rats were infected through nasal intubation drip of MP. After 10 days of administration, concentrations of IL-6 , IL-8 AND TNF-α in serum of MPP rats were detected. Left pulmonary tissues of rats were collected to observe the lung tissue pathological change by HE staining and right pulmonary tissues were used to detect the transforming growth factor-beta ( TGF-β) and surface activity related protein A( SP-A) mRNA expression level by real-time quantitative PCR ( RT-PCR) and TGF-βand SP-A protein expression by (Western blot. Result Qinbai Qingfei Concentrated) pellets significantly inhibited inflammation of lung tis-sue, reduced the expression of TGF-β and increased the expression of SP-A in the lung tissue of rats infec-ted by mycoplasma. Conclusion Qinbai Qingfei Con-centrated pellets can inhibit epithelial-mesenchymal transition ( EMT ) , of alveolar type Ⅱ epithelial cells by reducing the content of TGF-β and restore the nor-mal morphology and function of the lung by increasing the expression of SP-A.

Objective To establish an appropriate neonatal rat model with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and to investigate the protective effects of interleukin-1 receptor associated kinase (IRAK) 1/4 inhibitor on intestinal tissue of neonatal rats with NEC.Methods Thirty-six newborn SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group,NEC model group and IRAK1/4 inhibitor group,12 rats in each group.The rats in normal control group were raised by their mother and they did not receive any intervention.The rats of NEC model group were given artificial feeding,under hypoxia and cold stress.The IRAK1/4 inhibitor group were given IRAK1/4 inhibitor intervention,and also given artificial feeding,under hypoxia and cold stress.Three days later,all rats were sacrificed and intestinal tissues were obtained.The histopathological changes in ileocecal tissues were evaluated by pathological score after hematoxylin-eosin staining.The levels of interleukin (IL)-1β,IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in intestinal tissues were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results The rats of NEC model group presented abdominal distention,diarrhea (partly with mucous bloody stool),decreased activity,poor response,lethargy and other symptoms,and the extent was gradually worsened;the rats in IRAK1/4 inhibitor group also had abdominal distention,diarrhea,decreased activity,poor response and other symptoms,but the symptoms emerged later and milder.The histopathological score of intestinal tissues of normal control group was (0.33 ± 0.49) scores,NEC model group was (3.08 ± 0.99) scores,and IRAK1/4 inhibitor group was (1.75 ±0.96) scores.The histopathological scores of NEC model group and IRAK1/4 inhibitors group were significantly higher than those in normal control group (all P < 0.01),and the histopathological scores of IRAK1/4 inhibitor group were significantly lower than those in the NEC model group (P < 0.01).The levels of IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α in normal control group separately were (128.76 ± 27.25) ng/L,(0.41 ± 0.10) ng/L,(6.93 ± 1.79) ng/L,respectively;the levels of NEC model group separately were (410.99 ± 44.16) ng/L,(1.79 ± 0.18) ng/L,(44.39 ± 6.00) ng/L;the levels of IRAK1/4 inhibitor group separately were (256.23 ±41.29) ng/L,(1.05 ±0.19) ng/L,(21.45 ± 6.36) ng/L,respectively.The levels of IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α of NEC model group had significant differences compared with those of normal control group,respectively (all P <0.01);the levels of IL-1β3,IL-6 and TNF-α of IRAK1/4 inhibitor group had significant differences compared with those of normal control group,respectively (all P < 0.01);the levels of IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α of IRAK1/4 inhibitor group had significant differences compared with those of NEC model group (all P < 0.01),respectively.Conclusions IRAK1/4 inhibitor has some protective effects on the intestinal tissues of neonatal rats with NEC,which can reduce the damage to the intestinal tissues,and decrease the secretion of inflammatory cytokines like IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α.

ObjectiveTo analyze the differential expression of microRNA (miRNA) and its significance in patients with neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC).MethodsTwenty-five patients diagnosed with NEC with Bell stage≥Ⅱ, and 25 non-NEC patients as control group admitted to Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center between October 2014 and November 2015 were collected. White blood cells were extracted from the peripheral blood. Five samples were selected randomly each from NEC group and control group, and sequenced by second-generation Illumina high-throughput sequencing, screened for differentially expressed miRNA and analyzed for target genes prediction and biological function. The rest samples of the two groups were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction technology (RT-qPCR), the results were used to validate the results of high-throughput sequencing. Differentially expressed miRNA in the two groups of data was analyzed using DEGseq software.P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.P<0.01,q<0.001 and丨Log2 Ratio丨≥1 were taken as criteria for screening the differential expression. The differential expressions of miRNA in NEC group and control group were analyzed by cluster analysis using MeV4.6 software.ResultsA total of 482 miRNAs were differentially expressed in the two groups, with significant difference (P<0.05). Among them, 126 were known miRNAs with significantly differential expression in the two groups, with 58 being up-regulated and 68 being down-regulated. The results of up-regulated miRNAs (hsa-miR-223-5p,-183-3p,-222-5p) and down-regulated miRNAs (hsa-miR-23b-5p,-150-5p,-146a-3p,-1298-5p) were confirmed to be consistent with the results of sequencing. Bioinformatics analysis showed that the target genes with differential miRNA expression mainly involved Toll-like receptor signal transduction pathway, mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway, JAK-STAT and other signal transduction pathways.ConclusionsThere are significantly differential expressions of miRNAs in peripheral white blood cells of NEC neonates. These miRNs may be involved in the occurrence and development of NEC via adjusting different target genes to regulate the signal pathway.

Objective To explore the main causes for death due to severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) to improve the level of diagnosis and treatment. Methods The clinical data of 1162 SAP cases treated in our hospital from June 1997 to May 2005 were retrospectively analyzed. Among which, 144patients (12. 39%) died, 82(7.06%)abandoned treatment and 936(80.55%)were cured. Results the APACHE Ⅱ scores and pancreas Balthazar CT scores of the death group were higher than that of the survival group. The percentage of single one organ dysfunction and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) was significantly higher in the death group than in the survival group. The mortality rate of SAP without obvious inducing factors was significantly higher than that of SAP with inducing factors. Conclusion Integrated traditional and western non-surgical treatment is effective for SAP.The treatment for SAP without obvious inducing factors is a challenge. The mortality rate of SAP is primarily related to the pathological changes of pancreas and the patient's general condition. Early diagnosis and treatment is important to decrease mortality rate and maintaining the function of important organs is basic to ensure curative effect.

SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) is the etiologic agent of severe acute respiratory syndrome. The aim of this study was to construct Sars-CoV membrane (M), nucleocapsid (N) and spike 2 (S2) gene eukaryotic expression plasmids, and identify their expression in vitro. Gene fragments encoding N protein, M protein and S2 protein of SARS-CoV were amplified by PCR using cDNA obtained from lung samples of SARS patients as template, and subcloned into pcDNA3.1 vector to form eukaryotic expression plasmids. SARS-CoV protein eukaryotic expression plasmids were transfected respectively into CHO cells. Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the expression of the structural proteins of SARS-CoV in transfected cells. SARS-CoV protein eukaryotic expression plasmids were successfully constructed by identification with digestion of restriction enzymes and sequencing. M, N and S2 proteins of SARS-CoV were detected in the cytoplasm of transfected CHO cells. It was concluded that these recombinant eukaryotic expression plasmids were constructed successfully, and SARS-CoV encoding proteins could activate transcription and expression of hfgl2 gene.
