To isolate the specific genes in protoscoleses (PSC) of Echinococcus granulosus under oxidative stresses from the SSH library constructed in the previous study, the gene expression in PSC under oxidative stresses was studied by using real-time PCR. The previously amplified library was sequenced and analyzed in GenBank with Blast research. Sequence analysis indicated that all clones in the SSH library contained the coding sequences, of which some clones showed homology in the GenBank and others were unknown. Differential expression of 4 genes randomly selected and the TPx gene in this library were studied with real-time PCR. It was demonstrated that the gene expression of S88 and H32-1 in oxidative tissues was 2.0 and 2.3 times higher than the un-oxidative stresses respectively. The TPx gene was up-regulated when PSC was induced with H_2H_2 of more than 0.8 mmol/L. These results implies that the up-regulated expression of the above-mentioned genes may be related with the related functions of anti-oxidative process in PSC and they may be used as the candidate genes for the study of anti-oxidation of E.granulosus.

Objective To screen the potent permeation enhancers used in transcutaneous immunization with inactivated highly pathogenic avian influenza vaccine. Methods Five different permeation enhancers, ethanol, propylene glycol, dimethyl sulfoxide, ratinoic acid, oleic acid, were used to treat the skin of BALB/c mice before transcutaneous immunization. Sera were collected before the flist transcutaneous immunization and every two weeks post immunization. The titers of influenza virus-specific humoral IgG and IgA were assayed in serum, lung and nasal lavages by ELISA. The titers of hemagglutination inhibition ( HAI), IFN-γand IL-4 produced by splenic lymphocytes were also detected. Except that, clinical symptom of the skin in different time points and skin pathological changes were observed. Results The serum IgG titers, HAI titers and the influenza virus-specific lgA and IgG in lung and nasal lavages in the groups of HA +CT + DMSO, HA + CT + RA and HA + CT + OA were significantly higher than those of HA and HA + CT groups( P <0.05). Moreover, the numbers of splenic lymphocytes producing IFN-γ and IL-4 were increased in the above three groups than those in control groups. In addition, no evident clinical symptoms were observed, but stratum corneum of the skin in different groups showed different changes. Conclusion DMSO,RA and OA are potent permeation enhancers in mouse model inoculated with inactivated high pathogenic avian influenza vaccine transcutaneously.

Objective To investigate the effects of β-blockers on cardiac protection and hemodynamic in patients with septic shock. Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. Forty-one patients with septic shock in accordance with early goal directed treatment and met the target within 6 hours,and admitted to intensive care unit (ICU)of Affiliated Huxi Hospital of Jining Medical College from January 2012 to January 2014 were enrolled. The patients were divided into treatment group (n=21)and control group (n=20)by random number table. The patients in both groups were given the standard treatment,esmolol was giving to patients in treatment group in order to control the heart rate (HR)below 100 bpm within 2 hours,and the patients in control group only received standard treatment. The changes in hemodynamic parameters〔mean arterial pressure(MAP),central venous pressure(CVP), HR,cardiac index(CI),stroke volume index(SVI),systemic vascular resistance(SVRI),global end diastolic volume index(GEDVI)〕,biochemistry metabolic of tissue〔central venous oxygen saturation(ScvO2),lactic acid(Lac)〕,and cardiac markers 〔troponin I (cTnI)〕before and 12,24,48,72 hours after the treatment were recorded. Results①Before treatment,the hemodynamic parameters,tissue metabolism index and cTnI had no significant differences in both groups (all P>0.05).②The hemodynamic parameters after treatment in the control group showed no significant difference compared with that before treatment. HR and CI in the treatment group were gradually declined after treatment,SVRI and GEDVI were gradually increased. There were significant differences in HR,CI,SVRI,and GEDVI between treatment group and control group from 12 hours on〔HR(bpm):93±4 vs. 118±13,CI (L·min-1·m-2):3.3 ±0.8 vs. 4.5 ±0.6,SVRI (kPa·s·L-1·m-2):159.2 ±27.4 vs. 130.5 ±24.2,GEDVI(mL/m2):668 ±148 vs. 588 ±103,P<0.05 or P<0.01〕. MAP,CVP and SVI in the treatment group showed no significant changes. ③Lac after treatment in both groups was decreased slowly,Lac (mmol/L)at 12 hours after treatment was significantly decreased compared with that before treatment (control group:8.8 ±3.2 vs. 9.8 ±3.4,treatment group:9.5±3.1 vs. 10.5±4.1,both P<0.05). The Lac of control group and treatment group were 2.5±1.2 and 2.7±1.1 at 72 hours after treatment,and there was no significant difference between two groups (all P>0.05). The ScvO2 was not decreased in both groups.④Compared with before treatment,cTnI in the control group was gradually increased,peaked at 72 hours,and that in the treatment group was gradually increased,peaked at 24 hours and then gradually declined. Compared with control group,the cTnI (μg/L)in the treatment group was decreased significantly at 24,48,72 hours (1.15 ±0.57 vs. 1.74 ±0.77,0.93 ±0.52 vs. 2.15 ±1.23,0.52 ±0.36 vs. 2.39 ±1.17,all P<0.01). Conclusionsβ-blockers (esmolol) can improve cardiac function and myocardial compliance,reduce the myocardial injury in patients with sepsis shock. Although β-blockers can decrease cardiac output,it has no influence on the circulation function and tissue perfusion.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome is an infectious disease caused by a new type of coronavirus. It belongs to the seasonal febrile diseases in traditional Chinese medicine. The prevention and treatment of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) can be under the guidance of the doctrines for treating febrile diseases of traditional Chinese medicine, treatment based on syndrome differentiation, such as syndrome differentiation of triple energizer, syndrome differentiation according to defensive phase, qi phase, nutrient phase and blood phase. During April and May of 2003, 8 cases of SARS were diagnosed in Shanghai, and 6 patients accepted complementary therapy of traditional Chinese medicine, without death case. The only one patient who didn't take glucocorticoid therapy was complementarily treated with traditional Chinese herbs through the whole treating procedure. Upon the successful treatment of the eight cases of SARS in Shanghai, it is demonstrated that the triple-energizer syndrome differentiation and defensive-qi-nutrient-blood syndrome differentiation in traditional Chinese medicine are of high value in treating SARS patients.
