Objective To observe the effects of ischemic postconditioning (I-postC) on lung injury after limb ischemia reperfusion (LIR) in rats, and to investigate the protective effect and the mechanisms. Methods Twenty-four Wistar rats were divided into three groups:control group (group Control), ischemia-reperfusion group (group IR) and ischemic postcondi?tioning group (group I-postC). Referring to routine method in our department, the model rats underwent 4-hour ischemia and 4-hour reperfusion of hind limbs were made. In group Control, the rubber band around the limb was loose,which did not block the blood flow. Rats in group I-postC were given repeated 3 times of 5 min ischemia-5 min reperfusion, and then did perfusion 4 h before reperfusion. The blood and lung samples were collected for detecting arterial gas of partial pressure of oxygen [p(O2)] and partial pressure of carbon dioxide [p(CO2)]. The plasma and lung tissue levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and xanthine oxidase (XOD) were detected. The morphological changes of lung tissue were ob?served under light microscope and electron microscope. Results It was found that after suffering from ischemia-reperfu?sion, levels of p(O2) and p(CO2) decreased significantly. The activity of SOD in plasma and lung tissues decreased, but XOD and MDA increased significantly (P<0.05). With microscope, lung interstitial vascular dilation, infiltration of neutrophils, the width of the alveolar space, alveolar septal thickening and alveolar exudate were found. Compared with IR group, it was found that p(O2) and p(CO2) increased significantly in group I-postC. The activity of SOD in plasma and lung tissues in?creased, but XOD and MDA decreased significantly(P<0.05). The mild damage of pathological changes were found. Conclu?sion Ischemic postconditioning can reduce the lung injury after limb ischemia reperfusion in rats, which may be related to the inhibition of lipid peroxidation.

The endogenous microorganism in paridis rhizoma mainly includes bacteria and fungi,and shows different physiological activities,such as microorganism inhibition and anti-tumor activity. The principal active substance steroid saponin in paridis rhizoma can be generated from the fermentation liquor of some endogenous bacteria,and the chemical structure of vancomycin and progesterone can be transformed by the endophyte. It is supposed that paridis rhizoma may benefit from the attributions of the endogenous bacteria against illness and environment changes. It would also benefit in productivity, transformation and modification of the other active sub-metabolites and compounds in paridis rhizoma. Thus,it is valuable in drug development and source insufficiency alleviation of Chinese medicines through separation,identification,screening and clone of the endogenous microorganism in paridis rhizoma.

Objective To find out the bacterial species in the vagina of postpartum women and the possible influencing factors on colonization. Methods From Jun. 2007 to Oct. 2007, 560 postparmm women from 7 hospitals in China were enrolled. Questionnaire survey, gynecological examination and Nngent score of vaginal smear and microbial spectrum study of the vaginal flora were completed. Results (1 ) According to the Nngent score, 48 out of the 560 women were normal (8.6%), 337 at the borderline (60. 2% ) and 175 (31.2%) were complicated with bacterial vaginosis (BV). Among the 560 women, Bacterium lacticum were identified in 74 cases (13. 2% ), but not in the rest 486 cases (86. 8% ). Gardnerella and bacteroids were detected in 322 women (57. 5% ) and small flectobacillus in 214 women (38. 2% ) out of the 560 subjects. (2) Influencing factors on vaginal microflora: among the 266 women who had normal vaginal delivery, 23 (9. 4% ) showed normal vaginal microflora, 148 (55.6% ) at borderline and BV was diagnosed in 93 women (35.0%). The corresponding figures among the 294 women who underwent cesarean section were 23 (7. 8% ), 189 (64. 3% ) and 82(27.9% ), respectively. However, the incidence of BV had no statistical difference between these two groups (P = 0. 204). In the 233 women who received episiotomy, 22 (9. 4% ) showed normal vaginal microflora, 135 (57.9%) at borderline and 76 presented with BV (32. 6% ), the corresponding figures among the 327 women without episiotomy were 26 (8. 0% ), 202 (61.8%) and 99 (30. 2% ), respectively. The incidence of BV did not show any statistical difference between the above two groups (P = 0. 790 ). (3 ) Prenatal vaginitis were reported in 46 women, among which 5 (10.9%) with normal vaginal flora, 26 (56.5%) at borderline and 15 (32.6%) with BV, and again in the 514 women without prenatal vaginits, the above figures changed to 43 (8.4%) , 311 (60. 5% ) and 160 (31.1%). No significant difference was found in the incidence of BV between the two groups (P =0. 962). The rate of BV in women without sex, with sex occasionally and with sex frequently during pregnancy was 27.5% (78/284), 35.6% (96/270) and 1/6, respectively (P = O. 185), and the numbers in women who had breast-feeding, bottle feeding and mixed feeding were 31.0% (67/216), 39.3% (35/89) and 28.6% (73/255), respectively (P=0.573). Conclusions The amount of Lactobacillus in vagina of postpartum women is greatly reduced leading to dysbacteria. The incidence of BV is not affected by vaginal delivery, episiotomy, vaginitis, prenatal intercourse and the way of feeding, but is higher in postpartum women.

Objective To investigate the role and potential molecular mechanism of the radiosensitivity of esophagus cancer cells.Methods miR-141 mimics or its negative control was transfected into esophagus cancercells KYSE-150,respectively.Radiosensitivity of esophagus cancer cells was determined by CCK-8,flow cytometry and colony formation assay.The expression level of miR-141 was determined by qRT-PCR.Western blot was used to detect the expressions of proliferation-related protein Ki67 and apoptosis-related proteins Bax and Bcl-2.Results After radiation,the expression of miR-141 was decreased in KYSE-150 cells in a dose-dependent manner (t =2.57-8.96,P ＜ 0.05).Upregulation of miR-141 significantly suppressed cell proliferation and colony formation and promoted apoptosis,indicating that overexpression of miR-141 enhanced the radiosensitivity of KYSE-150 cells(t =3.24,P ＜0.05).In addition,the miR-141 mimic significantly reduced the expressions of Ki67 and Bcl-2 protein (t =6.56,8.24,P ＜ 0.01) and inhibited the expression of Bax protein compared with miR-control group (t =3.24,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Over-expression of miR-141 enhances the radiosensitivity of esophagus cancer cells by regulating the expressions of proliferation-related protein Ki67 and apoptosisrelated proteins Bax and Bcl-2.
