Objective To investigate the organic pollutants in the contaminated water irrigation area soil and to study the lipid peroxidation effect of the pollutants on mouse. Methods The organic pollutants of the polluted irrigation soil and control soil were extracted using the supersonic oscillator. The ingredients of the organic pollutants were measured by the GC-MS spectrum. The 40 sanitary Kunming mice were randomly divided into five groups: the dimethylsulfoxide control group,low dose group of control soil,high dose group of control soil,low dose group of polluted soil,high dose group of polluted soil. The administered doses of the low and high dose groups were 25.5 g dry soil/kg body weight per day by oral for two weeks. The activities of T-SOD,GSH-Px and the content of MDA in serum of mice were determined. Results Phenanthrene,yrene,diphenyl,fluorene,naphthalene,dimethyl-naphthalene,2,3,6-trimethyl-naphthalene,anthracene,dimethyl-anthracene,1,4-dimethyl-anthracene,fluoranthene,4-methyl-pyrene,dibenzothiophen,4-methyl-dibenzofuran,dibenzofuran,butylated-hydroxytoluene,dodecane,neopentyl-cyclohexane,trimethyl-heptane,1,2-dimethyl-cyclohexanimine,butethal were detected in the polluted irrigation soil and their levels were 14.3,2.1,1.3,1.1,0.8,1.3,0.4,2.9,7.2,2.3,9.1,0.2,0.4,1.4,1.7,0.37,0.9,0.11,0.02,0.02 and 0.13 mg/kg respectively in the polluted irrigation soil. Trimethyl-heptane,dimethyl-heptane and 1,2-dimethyl-cyclohexanimine were detected,and their levels were all 0.01 mg/kg in control soil. Compared with the solvent of dimethylsulfoxide group,the activities of T-SOD and GSH-Px of the high dose group of control soil and two dose groups of polluted soil all decreased,the differences were all significant(P0.05). Conclusion The soil has been contaminated with organic pollutants in the investigated area and the soil extract may produce a certain effect on lipid peroxidation in mice.

OBJECTIVE:To determine the contents of Pb,Cd,Hg,As and Cu in Panax notoginseng,Angelica sinensis,Ligus-ticum chuanxiong,Fallopia multiflora and Rheum palmatum commercially available in Tangshan. METHODS:Microwave diges-tion-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry(ICP-MS)and single factor index and Nemerow comprehensive index were used to evaluate the heavy metal pollution in TCM powder samples;and the heavy metal limiting values in Green Trade Standards of Im-porting & Exporting Medical Plants & Prescriptions were used to evaluate the pollution of heavy metal samples. RESULTS:In the samples in 12 batches of 5 TCM powders,there were 2 heavy metal exceeded samples (P. notoginseng-3 and L. chuanxiong-2), the exceeded rate was 16.7%,exceeded indexes were Cd and Hg with the exceeded rates of 16.7% and 8.3%,respectively;heavy metals with Single factor index greater than 1 were Hg and Cd in P. notoginseng-3,and Cd in L. chuanxiong-2 with the composite indexes of 1.06 and 0.81,and pollution levels were slightly polluted and reaching warning level,respectively. CONCLUSIONS:Certain heavy metal pollution is found in TCM powder commercially available in Tangshan. Therefore,it is necessary to carry out more strictly control over the heavy metal content in Chinese herbal medicines.

Objective To investigate effect of early enteral nutrition supplemented with probiotics on gastrointestinal motility disturbance and nutritional status in patients with severe craniocerebral trauma.Methods Forty patients with severe craniocerebral trauma were randomized into study group (18patients) and control group (22 patients).Patients of both groups received enteral nutrition via nasogastric tube at 24-72 hours after admission,but the patients of study group were also supplemented with probiotics simultaneously.Rate of abdominal distention,vomiting,gastro-oesophageal reflux,gastric retention,constipation and diarrhea were recorded during the whole study.Time to first defecation and time to targeted nutritional goals were also recorded.Prealbumin and transferrin in serum were detected at days 0,4,7,and 15 after the beginning of enteral nutrition.Length of ICU stay was compared between groups.Results There were no significant differences of the two groups in terms of rate of abdominal distention,vomiting,gastric retention and diarrhea.However,less gastro-oesophageal reflux or constipation patients were observed in study group,as compared with control group (P ＜ 0.05).Time to first defecation and time to targeted nutritional goals were shorter in study group,as compared with control group (P ＜ 0.05).Levels of prealbumin and transferrin had no significant differences between the two groups at days 0,4,and 7,but study group showed both were higher than control group at day 15 (P＜0.05).Moreover,length of ICU stay showed no significant difference between the two groups.Conclusions Compared with simple enteral nutrition,early enteral nutrition with probiotics improves gastrointestinal motility,facilitates the delivery of enteral nutrition,and further ameliorates nutritional status in patients with severe craniocerebral trauma.

Objective To explore the role and possible mechanism of CD28/B7 molecules in T cell ab-normal activation by establishing a mouse model of the autoimmune aplastic anemia. Methods Unmanipulated B6D2F1 or CByB6F1 hybrid mice were infused with about 40 × 106 lymph node (LN) cells from their C57BL/6 (B6) parent. Distribution of the injected T cells was assayed by CFDA-SE fluorescent staining. Anti-D80 and anti-CD86 monoclonal antibodies were used to block CD28/B7 signal transduction pathways and to test the change of peripheral blood of F1 mice at different times. Damage was assessed by histological staining. Bone marrow (BM) cells and LN iymphocytes were cultured to observe the effect of different number of lymphocytes in the LN on BM cells' hematopoiesis by the count of hematopoietic colony-forming cells, and to test the effect of cyclosporine A of different concentration on BM cells' hematopoiesis. Results Infusion of about 40 × 106/mouse B6 LN cells led to the development of BM failure in the fifth day: anemia, neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. At 21st day recipients began to appear death. Frozen section revealed the injected lymph node major in myeloid tissue. Pathological sec-tion revealed obvious immune-induced marrow destruction and tissue destruction. There was similar performance of the above in the recipients infused with anti-D80 and anti-CD86 monoclonal antibodies. B6 LN five times the num-ber of lymphocytes in the blood cells F1, CFU-E and CFU-G colony formation of a blank group difference was not significant (P >0.05); When B6 LN 10 times the number of lymphocytes in the blood cells F1, CFU-E colony forming significantly reduce the number of (P < 0.05) ; When B6 LN lymphocytes 50 times in F1 hematopoietic cells, not observed CFU-E colony formation. CFU-E and CFU-G colony formation reducing the number of lympho-cytes showed a dose-dependent. Cyclosporine A can significantly increase the CFU-E and CFU-G colony forming rate. Conclusion This mouse model indicates that activated lymphocytes play important roles in marrow destruc-tion in lymphocyte infusion-induced BM failure. Only blocking the CD28/B7 signal transduction can not block the abnormal T-cells activated.

Objective To evaluate the structure and function of left ventricle in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients without complications by myocardial velocity gradient (MVG) measured by myocardial velocity profile (MVP). Methods Thirty type 2 DM patients without complications and 30 healthy volunteers as controls were enrolled. The heart structure, systolic function and diastolic function of left ventricle were measured by echocardiography and the left ventricular mass index (LVMI) was calculated. Mitral annular systolic movement (Sm) , early rapid filling phase movement ( Em) and atrial contraction movement(Am) were measured by tissue Doppler image and the left ventricular MVG at diastole and systole in subendocardium and subepicardium (MVGs,MVGd) were measured by MVP. Results The diameter of left atria and left ventricle, thickness of interventricular septum and LVMI were higher in DM group than those of control group ( P <0. 05 or P <0. 01) , MVGs, MVGd, and Em were lower in DM group than those of control group( P <0. 05 or P <0. 01). There were no significant differences on E/A, Em/Am and E/Em between two groups. In addition, there were also no significant differences on Sm,left ventricular ejection fraction and left ventricular fraction shortening between two groups. Conclusions Structure and function of left ventricle have changed in patients of DM without complications. MVG measured by MVP is an accurate and sensitive index to assess left ventricular systolic and diastolic function.

Objective·To establish a cell-based screening system for identification of compounds with activity in regulating retinoic acid receptor (RARα) stability. Methods·The modified pMSCV plasmid constructs, named as RARα-EGFP-IRES-DsRed, consists of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) fusing to RARα and red fluorescent protein (DsRed) as internal references incorporating the internal ribosome entry site (IRES) as interval sequence. The RARα-EGFP-IRES-DsRed plasmid was stably transfected into NB4 cells which were named as NB4-pMGIR-RARα. Fluorescence signals of EGFP and DsRed indirectly reflecting the expression of RARα, were detected by flow cytometry in cells that were treated with all-trans retinoic acid, sodium valproate, cytarabine, lenalidomide, etoposide, montelukast and gambogic acid, respectively. Effects of these compounds on the expression of RARα protein were further examined by Western blotting. Results·A double fluorescence reporter system for screening compounds that can increase the stability of RARα protein was successfully established, and sodium valproate was identified as a potent compound to promote the stability of RARα. Conclusion·The double fluorescence reporter system can be used to screen compounds regulating the stability of RARα protein, which can be further used to identify compounds regulating the stability of other proteins.
