Objective To investigate the protective effects of melatonin and possible mechanisms on rats with alco-holic fatty liver (AFL). Methods All rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: normal group (n = 10), model group (n = 12) and melatonin groups (10 mg / kg, 20 mg / kg; n = 10, respectively). The model of rats’ alcoholic fatty liver was induced by intragastric influsion of ethanol for 8 weeks. The melatonin groups’ rats received melato-nin by intraperitoneal injection after intragastric infusion of ethanol. Histopathological changes were evaluated by hematoxylin and eosin staining. The expressions of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were detected by immunohistochemical methods. The detection of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels and alanine transarninase (ALT) levels and the total bilirubin ( TBIL) levels in serum were provided by routine laboratory methods using an autoanalyzer. The levels of malondialdehyde ( MDA) and activities of glutathione peroxidase ( GPx) were measured by spectrophotometry. Results Compared with the normal group, the liver cells of the mod-el group showed obvious steatosis and significant swelling. However, less degree and less extensive of steatosis and swelling were observed in the melatonin groups. Compared with the normal group, the levels of ALT, AST and TBIL in serum and the levels of MDA in liver homogenates were significantly increased in the model group (P <0. 01), and the activities of GPx were distinctly decreased in the model group(P < 0. 01). But in the melatonin groups, the levels of ALT, AST and TBIL in serum and the levels of MDA in liver homogenates were decreased (P< 0. 01), and the activities of GPx were increased (P < 0. 01). Additionally, melatonin lessened the expression of TNF-α and IL-6 in liver obviously (P < 0. 01). Conclusion Melatonin may inhibit the development of alcoholic fatty liver and its possible mechanism is the ability to resist oxidative stress and lessen the expression of TNF-α and IL-6 and other relevant factors in liver.

Objective To know the influence of psychological intervention on delivery results of par-turient women, and then reference to certain effective psychological nursing cares for clinical field. Methods Divided 226 partreient women of spontaneous labor into the experimental group and the control group randomly, there were 113 eases in each group. Traditional routine nursing cares was used in the control group, psychological intervention was used in the experimental group in addition.

AIM: To study the effect of Tribulus terrestris L. saponin (TTLS) on apoptosis and changes in cytosolic calcium concentration induced by hypoxia/re-oxygenation in rat cortical neurons. METHODS: Rat cortical neurons in primary culture were used, and a apoptosis model was induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation. LDH releasing rate was detected by spectrophotometry. The apoptosis rate of cortical neurons was analyzed quantitatively by flow cytometry with Annexin V-FITC and PI staining. Intracellular free Ca2+([Ca2+]i) was observed with a confocal laser-scanning microscope and determined by mean fluorescent value with Fluo-3 fluometry. RESULTS: Compared to control group, three hours of hypoxia and twelve hours of reoxygenation group induced cortical neuronal apoptosis and significantly increased the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration(P

Objective To evaluate the protective effects elicited by ClpP fusion protein in animal protection tests. Methods Pneumococcal antigens were purified from recombinant Escherichia coli express-ing CIpP cloned gene. 6- to 8-week-old female BALB/c mice were immunized intraperitoneally with either ClpP or PBS plus alum. Every mouse received three doses of 20 μg antigen or PBS in 100 mg of alum adju-vant at 14 d intervals. Sera were collected from mice and analyzed by ELISA 1 week after the third immuni-zation, Intraperitoneal-challenge experiments with 12 different serotypes of Streptococcus pneumoniae were carried out 2 weeks after the third immunization, and we compared their median survival times and survival rates respectively by Mann Whitney U test and Fisher exact test. Results ELISA analysis demonstrated high titer specific antibody responses to ClpP. The median survival times for mice immunized with ClpP pro-tein antigens in adjuvant were significantly longer than those for mice that received the adjuvants alone. Con-clusion A highly expressed recombinant ClpP protein has been successfully obtained and proved to exert the protection against invasive pneumococcal infection without relation of serotype, suggesting ClpP can be a promising candidate vaccine.
