Objective: To investigate the sensitization of physiological (10~(-9)mol/L) and pharmacological (10~(-5)mol/L) concentrations of melatonin on cell line MCF-7 for adriamycin and its mechanism. Methods: (1) MTT was applied to test the changes in inhibition ratio and IC_(50) of call line MCF-7 for adriamycin before and af-ter incubation with melatonin. (2) Flow cytometry was used to observe the effect of different concentrations of melatonin, adriamycin and melatonin plus adriamycin on cell apoptosis. (3) Western blot was employed to de-termine the expression of p53 and bcl-2 in MCF-7 cells incubated with melatonin, adriamycin and melatonin plus adriamycin. Results: (1) MTT method showed that adriamycin had inhibitive effect on the growth of MCF-7 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The IC_(50) of cell line MCF-7 for adnamycin before treat-ment with melatonin was 0.62±0.07ug/mL (P>0.05). The IC50 of cell line MCF-7 for adriamycin incubated with physiological and pharmacological concentrations of melatonin was 0.59±0.09ug/mL and 0.42±0.02ug/mL, re-spectively, with a significant difference (P<0.01). (2) Flow cytometry method showed that adriamycin could promote apoptosis of MCF-7, and no changes in the apoptosis index were observed as the concentration of melatonin was changed (P>0.05). With the same concentration of adriamycin, the apoptosis index of cells treated with physiological concentration of melatonin plus adriamycin was not changed (P=>0.05), but the apop-tosis index of cells treated with pharmacological concentrations of melatonin plus addamycin was increased significantly. The concentration of adriamycin had no effect on the apoptosis index. (3) Western blot showed that P53 protein was expressed at a lower level and bcl-2 protein was highly expressed. Physiological concen-trations of melatonin increased the expression of p53 and decreased bcl-2 expression in a dose - dependent manner. The concentration of addamycin had no effect on the expression of p53 and bcl-2 proteins. Conclu-sion: (1) Physiological concentrations of melatonin had no effect on the anti-cancer effect of adriamycin. Phar-macological concentrations of melatonin showed sensitization of MCF-7 cells for adriamycin. (2) With a lower concentration of adriamycin, the promotion of apoptosis may be part of the mechanism of sensitization effect of melatonin. With the increase of adriamycin concentration, the cytotoxic mechanism of melotonin became more and more important. (3) Physiological concentration could increase the expression of p53 and decrease bcl-2 expression in ER~+ breast carcinoma cell line MCF-7 in a dose -dependent manner. The apoptosis involv-ing p53 and bcl-2 passway was part of the mechanism of sensitization effect of melatonin for addamycin.

BACKGROUNDThe objective of this study was to use three-dimensional finite element (FE) models to analyze the stability and the biomechanics of two upper cervical fixation methods: the C2 intralaminar screw method and the C2 pedicle screw method.
METHODSFrom computed tomography images, a nonlinear three-dimensional FE model from C0 (occiput) to C3 was developed with anatomic detail. The C2 intralaminar screw and the C2 pedicle screw systems were added to the model, in parallel to establish the interlaminar model and the pedicle model. The two models were operated with all possible states of motion and physiological loads to simulate normal movement.
RESULTSBoth the C2 intralaminar screw method and the C2 pedicle screw method significantly reduced motion compared with the intact model. There were no statistically significant differences between the two methods. The Von Mises stresses of the internal and external laminar walls were similar between the two methods. Stability was also similar.
CONCLUSIONSThe C2 intralaminar screw method can complement but cannot completely replace the C2 pedicle screw method. Clinicians would need to assess and decide which approach to adopt for the best therapeutic effect.

Objective To study the etiology and drug resistance of escherichia coli isolated from clinic in chengde from 2016 to 2018, and to provide an objective basis for the epidemiological study and clinical rational use of antimicrobial agents. Methods The feces of 702 diarrhea patients in an outpatient clinic in chengde district from 2016 to 2018 were collected, isolated and prepared by conventional pathogen testing procedures, and the specimens suspected of escherichia coli were identified by multiple PCR and single PCR experiments. DEC was sensitized to 15 antibiotic drugs in vitro by automatic microbiological identification and drug sensitivity analyzer Vitke-2 compact. Results A total of 189 DEC strains was isolated from the feces of 702 diarrhea patients, and the detection rate was 26.92%. Among 189 DEC strains, EAEC had the highest detection rate (57.67%), followed by ETEC (32.80%), then EPEC (6.35%) and mixed (3.17%). EIEC and EHEC were not detected. The virulence genes were mainly ast A 、est Ib and esc V. All types of DEC were detected throughout the year, with the highest detection rate (29.19%) between June and August. The patients were mainly aged between 20 and 45 years old, and the detection rate was 25.86% and 27.97% for men and women. The detection of EPEC was not affected by season, sex or age, except by season and age. DEC had the highest resistance to ampicillin at 62.96%, 51.32%, 49.74% and 30.16% to cotrimoxazole, ciprofloxacin and gentamicin, and less than 20% to the other 11 drugs, all of which were sensitive to meropenem but not resistant. Among 189 DEC strains, esbl-producing strains accounted for 1.59%. Multiple resistant strains accounted for 32.80%. Conclusion DEC for chengde area of the most common bacterial pathogens in gastrointestinal tract infection, clinical laboratory should strengthen the monitoring of the region DEC, especially to carry on a variety of virulence genes, ESBL producing and multiple drug resistance strains, timely grasp the dynamics of bacterial drug resistance, and to guide clinical rational drug use, delay and reduce the generation of bacterial drug resistance.
