The cell-surface expression and functional status of the CD95/Fas antigen on primitive hematopoietic progenitors isolated from human cord blood (CB) were studied. The CD34+ cells freshly isolated from CB displayed low CD95 expression. The combinations of cytokines such as SCF + FL could up-regulate the expression of CD95 in vitro culture and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interon-gamma (IFN-gamma) further increased the CD95 expression induced by positive cytokines. The functional status of CD95-mediated apoptosis were analyzed by incubation of CD34+ CB cells in the presence of anti-CD95 monoclonal antibodies (McAbs). The effects of anti-CD95 McAbs were measured by viable cell counting, flow cytometry, LTIC and CFU-C assays. A decrease of viable cells, CFU-C and LTIC numbers were observed in the presence of anti-CD95 McAbs and TNF-alpha or IFN-gamma. However, growth factor deprivation or the early-acting cytokine such as SCF and FL cross-linking to CD95 caused low apoptosis of CD34+ cells. The correlation of increased intracytoplasmic levels of bcl-2 and the presence of CD95 on fresh CB CD34+ cells suggested that bcl-2 might be involved in protecting against CD95-mediated apoptosis of CB CD34+ cells.

OBJECTIVE:To compare clinical efficacy and safety of budesonide and beclometasone assisting with terbutaline by atomization inhalation in the treatment of acute pediatric asthma attack. METHODS:150 pediatric patients with acute asthma attack were randomly divided into group A and group B,with 75 cases in each group. Both group received symptomatic support treatment as low-flow oxygen inhalation,eliminating phlegm,relieving a cough,dilating bronchus and anti-infection,and atomization inhala-tion of budesonide,1 ml each time,bid. Based on this,group A was given atomization inhalation of budesonide,2 ml each time, bid;group B was given atomization inhalation of beclometasone,2 ml,bid. Treatment course of 2 groups lasted for 7 d. Clini-cal efficacy,asthma control,PEF% and the occurrence of ADR were observed in 2 groups;the time of symptoms and signs dis-appearance and hospitalization time were recorded,and symptoms and signs of children were scored 1 day before treatment and 7 days after treatment. RESULTS:During treatment,2 cases and 3 cases were withdraw from the test in group A and group B, respectively. The total effective rates of group A and B were 91.78% and 94.44%,and the rate of asthma control 95.89% and 94.44%,without statistical significance(P>0.05). The time of breathing difficulties disappearance,cough disappearance time, wheezing disappearance time and hospitalization time of group A were separately (2.11 ± 0.54),(3.28 ± 0.93),(4.38 ± 1.05), (5.83±1.29)d;those of B group were separately(2.07±0.52),(3.30±0.96),(4.45±1.08),(5.90±1.33)d,there was no sig-nificant difference between 2 groups(P>0.05). The clinical symptoms and signs score of group A before and after treatment were separately (4.28 ± 0.94) and (0.15 ± 0.04);those of before and after treatment of group B were separately (4.23 ± 0.91) and(0.11±0.03). There was significant difference before and after treatment(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference between 2 groups (P>0.05). The PEF% of group A before and after treatment were separately (51.4 ± 9.8)% and (67.2 ± 11.2)%;those of before and after treatment of group B were separately(52.0±7.1)%and(68.3±8.7)%. There was significant difference before and after treatment (P<0.05),but there was no significant difference between 2 groups (P>0.05). No obvi-ous ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Budesonide and beclometasone assisting with terbutaline by atomization inha-lation in the treatment for acute pediatric asthma attack possess the same effects and can efficiently relieve symptoms and signs, increase the rate of asthma control and shorten the rehabilita-tion course with good safety.

In order to investigate the influence of angiotensin II on hematopoietic system, CD34+ cells in cord blood were purified, and the effects of angiotensin II in combination with various cytokines on their growth and differentiation were studied by cell culture in vitro. It was found that angiotensin II in suspending medium could stimulate both BFU-E and CFU-GM expansion. The number of BFU-E and CFU-GM was increased with the increases of angiotensin II concentrations during a certain range. In addition, the expansion fold of CFU-GM was increased from 2.3 +/- 0.8 times to 7.8 +/- 2.3 times when angiotensin II was added in the presence of SCF+G-CSF+GM-CSF+IL3 cytokines mixture. Similarly, the expansion fold of BFU-E was increased from 3.1 +/- 1.8 times to 9. 2 +/- 2.3 times with angiotensin II in the presence of SCF+EPO+TPO+IL-3. In the semi-solid medium, angiotensin II could stimulate CFU-GM expansion but had no effect on the growth of BFU-E. In conclusion, angiotensin II had some stimulating effects on cord blood hematopoietic progenitors expansion in vitro in the presence of other cytokines.

Objective:To explore the relationship between wearing of functional appliance and systemic metabolism of PGE2 in the blood of growing rats.Methods:54 male Wistar rats aged 4-weeks were randomly divided into 3 groups(n =18):Daytime group,all-day group and control group.Self-guided functional appliance was made for mandible advancement of the rats in the 2 experimental groups.One week after appliance wearing,rats were sacrificed at the corresponding time points and blood in femoral artery was taken. PGE2 levels in the blood samples were measured,data were analysed by cosine equation.Results:Hypothesis was true in the control group(P ＜0.05),and was not true in both 2 experimental groups(P >0.05).Conclusion:PGE2 level in rat blood is circadian rhyth-mic,wearing of functional appliance made may disturb the rhythm.

Aflibercept is a soluble fusion protein which combines ligand-binding elements taken from the extracellular components of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor-1 and receptor-2 fused to the Fc portion of IgG,and it is a novel antiVEGF drug,which can reduce vascular permeability and inhibit neoangiogenesis by binding VEGF tightly.A large number of phase Ⅲ clinical trials have demonstrated the satisfactory outcomes of aflibercept in the management of neovascular age-related macular degeneration,macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion or macular edema and other retinal vascular diseases.Moreover,intravitreal injection of afiibercept can improve the visual acuity and attenuate the fundus lesion,which provides a new drug option for physicians.The review will summarize the chemical properties of aflibercept and its application,safety and efficacy of aflibercept for the treatment of retinal vascular diseases.

Objective To investigate the synergistic efficacy of different antibiotic combinations against KPC-2 carbapenemase producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strains in vitro and search for effective antibiotic combination.Methods During 2008 - 2009,a total of 24 strains of K.pneumoniae producing KPC-2 carbapenemase were collected from 8 hospitals in the First Affiliated Hospital of Medical School of Zhejiang University,Ningbo LiHuiLi Hospital,Zhejiang People's Hospital,Hangzhou Third Hospital,the Second Hospital of Shaoxing,Hangzhou First Hospital,Fudan University Huashan Hospital,General Hospital of Nanjing Military Region.MLST technique was used for epidemiological analysis.The MIC of antibiotics,such as amikacin,minocycline,imipenem,amoxicillin/clavulanic-acid,ceftazidime,meropenem,gentamicin,cefoxitin,cefepime,rifampicin,polymyxinB,ciprofloxacin were determined by an agar dilution method,the MIC of tigecycline and piperacillin/tazobactain were determined by Etest.The antibacterial activities of cefepime in combination with amoxicillin/clavulanic-acid,amikacin,or ciprofloxacin,amikacin with ciprofloxacin,imipenem with amikacin,ciprofloxacin,polymyxinB,or minocycline,polymyxin B with rifampicin,ceftazidime with amoxicillin/clavulanic-acid were assessed by chequerboard synergy agar dilution tests against all the isolates.Results MLST showed 5 STs among 24 strains of KPC-2 carbapenemase producing K.pneumoniae,and the most prevalent clone was ST11 (15 strains).All isolates were susceptible to polymyxin B and tigecycline,and the resistance rate of minocycline was 4.2％.The synergetic effects were observed in cefepime-amoxicillin/clavulanic acid,imipenem-amikacin,ceftazidime-amoxicillin/clavulanic acid combinations as 19 isolates,13 isolates,and 13 isolates,respectively.Conclusions KPC-2 carbapenemase producing K.pneumoniae is sensitive to polymyxin B,tigecycline and minocycline.The synergetic effect is predominant in cefepime-amoxicillin/clavulanic acid,imipenem-amikacin ceftazidime-amoxicillin/clavulanic acid combinations in vitro,their clinical efficacy are worthy of further observation.
