Objective To study the effect of mosapride citrate in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease and its effect on gastrin .Methods 86 patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease admitted in our hospital from August 2013 to August 2016, those patients were divided into observation group and control group according to the order of admission,43 cases in each group.The control group was treated with esomeprazole on the basis of basal therapy, and the observation group was treated with mosapride citrate on the basis of control group.The clinical curative effect and adverse reaction were analyzed,visual analogue scale(VAS), gastrin and motilin were compared before and after treatment between the two groups.Results After treatment, the total effective rate in the observation group was significantly higher than the control group [90.70% (39/43) vs.65.12% (28/43)](P<0.05). The VAS score in the observation group was significantly lower than the control group [(2.43 ±0.25) vs.(4.02 ±0.41)](P<0.05).The levels of gastrin and motilin in the observation group were significantly higher than the control group[ (55.87 ±4.82) pg/mL, (308.43 ±19.31) pg/mL vs. (44.12 ±3.86) pg/mL,(243.12 ±15.76) pg/mL](P<0.05).There was no significant difference in adverse reaction rate between two groups. Conclusion Mosapride citrate tablets can be used in gastroesophageal reflux disease , can effectively improve the patient's gastrin levels and clinical symptoms, clinical efficacy is good, and with low rate of adverse reactions.

The incidence of cerebral watershed infarction is higher.At present,the correlation studies of cerebral watershed infarction and cerebral vascular stenosis are mostly limited to the guilty vascular lesions,and the atherosclerotic disease is a chronic systemic inflammatory response.It often exists multiple vascular stenosis.This article elaborates cerebral watershed infarction from the aspects of carotid artery complicated with other parts of the arterial stenosis,middle cerebral artery complicated with other parts of the artery stenosis and collateral circulation in order to improve the awareness of the correlation between watershed cerebral infarction and multiple cerebral artery stenosis.

Objective To study the effect of IL-8 on cell proliferation and invasion,and to analyze the correlations between chemokine and epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)signaling pathways in breast carcinoma cells.Methods IL-8 secretion responded to treatment with rhEGF and anti-EGFR and expression of its receptors CXCR1,CXCR2 in MDA-231 cells were measured by ELISA and immunocytochemistry,respectively.Effect of rhIL-8 and neutralizing antibody on cell proliferation and invasion were analyzed by using MTT and matrigel invasion assay.EGFR transactivation stimulated with rhIL-8 and neutralizing an tibody was assessed by Western blot using anti-phosphotyrosine antibody.Results MDA-231 cells released hish level of IL-8 and two receptom of IL-8(CXCR1 and CXCR2)both expressed on cell membrane.Exogenous IL-8 and its neutralizing antibody did not significantly influence the proliferation of breast carcinoma cells,but rhIL-8 stimulated invasive activity in MDA-231 cells and its neutralizing antibody inhibited the in vasive activity(P＜0.05).EGF and anti-EGFR both inhibited the secretion of IL-8 in breast carcinoma cells,and IL-8 had no effect on EGFR phosphorylation,but anti-IL-8 induced transactivation of EGFR after 24h.Conclusion IL-8 contributes to tumor progression in breast carcinoma through its enhancement of in vasive activitv but not act as an autocrine growth factor.The correlation of competitive inhibition rather than cross-talk is found between G protein coupled receptor(GPCR)-mediated IL-8 signaling pathway and EGFR pathway in breast carcinoma.

AIM To investigate the effects of piroxicam on transplanted Sarcoma S180 and the expression of COX 2,VEGF,FGF 2 and microvessel density (MVD) in tumor tissue METHODS Kunming mice were randomizedly divided into control group, FT207 positive group and 5, 2 5, 1 mg?kg -1 piroxicam groups One day after inoculation of 0 2 ml S180 cell suspension, FT207 and piroxicam were given by gastric intubation for 9 days The inhibitory rate on S180 was calculated routinely The expression of COX 2,VEGF,FGF 2 and MVD was detected by immunohistochemistry RESULTS The growth of S180 was significantly inhibited by piroxicam at the doses of 5, 2 5, 1 mg?kg -1 with the inhibitory rate of 31 4%,40 7% and 34 9% respectively The expression of COX 2 in the tumor tissue was also inhibited by piroxicam. Accordingly the expression of VEGF,FGF 2 and MVD was markedly inhibited in dose dependent manner by piroxicam CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that piroxicam has inhibitory effects on S180,and it also decreases the expression of COX 2 in tumor tissue. There is a relation ship between the expression of COX 2 and angiogenesis related factor Antiangiogenesis may be another mechanism for piroxicam to exert its chemopreventive and treatment effects.

It is reported by current investigations,that BNP can suppress heart hypertrophy but it can also depress compensatory hypertrophic response.BNP is an useful marker in the early diagnosis,prognosis,therapy guiding of heart failure and coronary heart disease,but comorbid conditions should be considered in the diagnosis of heart failure.The polymorphism in the 5'-flanking region of the NPPB gene is found to be related with essential hypertension.On the basis of some investigation,it is supposed that the instillation of BNP at the early stage of hypertension will contribute to therapy of hypertension.

Objective To optimize several key factors in preparing protein microarray,and establish microarrays to detect autoantibodies.Methods Four factors,including incubation time of the microarray after spotting,the blocking reagent,the length of blocking time,the length of time conjugating with the second-an- tibody,were selected to carry out orthogonal optimization,then we determined the optimal spotting concentra- tion of antigen and the best dilution of serum with the optimized conditions obtained from the above.On the basis of the optimized conditions,we prepared microarray to detect six autoantibodies simultaneously,which were compared with IIF and ELISA.Results The best conditions we determined from the experiment were: incubating the spot microarray for 120 min,PBST containing 1% BSA and 2.5% saccharose as the blocking reagent and blocking for 30 min,reacting with the second-antibody for 30 min,the appropriate spotting con- centrations of six antigens differed from 100?g/ml to 300?g/ml and the best serum dilution was 1:2.Com- pared with IIF for ANA detection,the sensitivity of the microarray was 88.6%,the specificity was 83.3%,and compared with ELISA in detecting the other five autoantibodies,the sensitivity of the microarray was between 80.0% and 88.2%,and the specificity was between 90.2% and 98.6%.Conclusion The optimization condi- tions we obtained are suitable for preparing protein microarray,and the detection sensitivity and specificity of autoantibodies by microarray are consistent with the conventional methods in general.The microarray for de- tecting autoantibodies is applicable in the clinical diagnosis of autoimmune disease.

Objective To prepare the infected Oncomelania hupensis by artificial method for the research on the activity, vaccine, and genetic variation of Schistosoma Japonicum (S. Japonicum).Methods The mature eggs of S. Japonicum were collected by Nylon silk method and the miracidia were incubated under appropriate conditions. Negative snails were infected with miracidia in different proportion by means of individual or collective infection to seek the best method and proportion of infection between miracidia and snails. Infected snails were divided into 12 groups in total. Ⅰ-Ⅵ groups were for individual infection and Ⅶ-Ⅻ groups were for collective infection. There were 200 snails in each group. The infection ratios between snails and miracidia in Group Ⅰ-Ⅵ or screened, numbered, and reared singly. The amount of cercariae was calculated once every 10 days until the infected snails died. Then cercariae shedding quantity, infection quantity, and mortality of infected snails in every group were compared to find the best infection method and the best infection proportion between miracidia and snails. The cercariae were collected from the first generation of infected snails and were used to infect experimental animals. The mature eggs of S. Japonicum were saved from the infected experimental animals and incubated to get miracidia. The snails were artificially infected by miracidium to get the second generation of infected snails. The developmental rates of adult worms, the egg density in fecal and liver were compared between artificially and naturally infected snails. Results In individual infection GroupⅠ-Ⅵ,the average infection value of snails were 0±0,22.7±4.2,31.7±4.5,53.0±5.3,39.3±5.9,32.7±4.7,the average fatality of snails were 21.7±3.1,25.0±3.6,31.3±4.9,44.7±6.5,78.3±9.5,89.7±13.6, and the average value of cercariae shedding from infected snails were 0.0±0.0,308.0±96.6,428.1±146.2,527.0±171.1,571.4±148.9,602.9±356.3, respectively. In collective infection Group Ⅶ-Ⅻ,the average infection value of snails were 0±0,12.3±2.5,18.7±4.7,28.3±4.2,33.3±4.7,29.3±5.5,and the average fatality of snails were 22.7±3.8,23.7±4.5,28.3±5.5,47.0±9.5,75.7±8.5,86.3±12.2, and the average value of cercariae shedding from infected snails were 0±0,244.5±57.3,292.3±74.8,347.1±100.8,477.2±142.1,447.3±161.4, respectively. The second generation of artificially infected snails was obtained successfully. The average infection rate and fatality rate for the second generation of artificially infected snails were 24.65% and 24.50%, both of which were not obviously different from that of the first generation of artificially infected snails (P>0.05). In the animal experiment, the worm growth rate for the naturally infected snails, the first or second generation of artificially infected snails were 68.50%,73.50% or 71.00%. There was no obvious difference among them (P>0.05). The fecal (or liver) eggs per gram for the naturally infected snails, the first or the second generation of artificially infected snails were 1 503±269,1 683±233, or 1 541±117 (or 6 641±1 819,6 272±1 419, or 7 263±1 643). There was no significant difference among the 3 groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Infected snails can be obtained through the artificial method by using S. Japonicum miracidia to infect snails. Individual infection has the advantage over collective infection. The optimal proportion of infection between first and the second generation of artificially infected snails in the average of cercariae shedding, infection, and fatality average of snails. There was no significant difference between artificially and naturally infected snails in the developmental rate of adult worms, fecal and liver eggs per gram.

Objective To construct a recombinant Escherichia coli ( E. coli) with surface-dis-played lead specific binding protein PbrR and to further study intestinal colonization by the recombinant bac-teria in mice and gastrointestinal tolerance of the bacterial surface-displayed PbrR. Methods Chimeric pro-tein Lpp-OmpA coding sequence was chemically synthesized and inserted into the expression vector pET-21a to construct the outer membrane display vector pLOA. PbrR coding sequence was also obtained by chemical-ly synthesis and inserted into pLOA to generate the outer membrane display plasmid pLOA-pbrr. E. coli BL21 (DE3)pLysS was transformed with pLOA-pbrr and induced by IPTG. The expressed recombinant proteins were analyzed by 15% SDS-PAGE and Western blot assay. Lead adsorption capacity of the cell surface-dis-played PbrR in the simulated intestinal juice and tolerance of the recombinant E. coli to simulated gastric juice were analyzed, respectively. KM mice were orally given the induced recombinant bacteria by gastric lavage for 7 consecutive days and then were continually fed until day 30. The contents of recombinant bacte-ria in stool samples were detected by dilution plate method on day 7, 15 and 30. The recombinant protein with His tag was detected by immunoblotting on day 7 and 15. Results Based on Lpp-OmpA, the PbrR outer membrane display vector was successfully constructed. The recombinant fusion protein Lpp-OmpA-PbrR-His tag was highly expressed in E. coli. The recombinant E. coli strains displaying PbrR on their outer membrane accumulated a significant level of Pb2+ in simulated intestinal juice. Moreover, those strains showed a tolerance to gastric acid in vitro and could colonize in the intestinal tracts of mice via oral infection. The surface-displayed recombinant fusion protein showed a better tolerance to the environment of digestive tract. Conclusion The recombinant E. coli strain displaying PbrR on its surface showed a stronger capabili-ty of lead accumulation from simulated intestinal environment and could colonize in the intestinal tracts of mice. The surface-displayed recombinant PbrR also showed a good tolerance to digestive juice. This study paved the way for further researches on the selective elimination of lead by biosorption based on animal mod-els.

The secondary structures of fusion protein pp150/MDBP, including alpha-helix, beta-sheet, turn regions, were analyzed by Garnier-Robson's and Chou-Fasman's methods; the antigenic epitopes of B cells were analysed by using hydrophilicity plot. The results showed that the fusion protein pp150/MDBP might have less alpha-helix, but be rich in beta-sheet and turn regions. The epitopes recognized by B cells may be at 7-56 amino acid residues or adjacent to 137-192 amino acid residues.
