We studied the function of connexin 43 (Cx43) gene in Xiao Meishan swine bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) resulting from overexpression. Cx43 eukaryotic expression vector (pEGFP-Cx43) was constructed and transfected into BMSCs by nucleofector, after detecting the transfection efficiency; the expression of Cx43 was verified by RT-PCR, immunofluorescence and western blotting. Furthermore, we detected its cell cycle and apoptosis through flow cytometry. Our results show that pEGFP-Cx43 plasmid was successfully constructed, and green fluorescence in pEGFP-Cx43 transfected BMSCs was highly expressed with 60% transfection efficiency. In transgenic Xiao Meishan swines BMSCs, the expression level of Cx43 mRNA and protein were up-regulated. Meanwhile, the ability of cell proliferation was significantly increased, and the apoptosis rate was significantly reduced. Taken together, Cx43 overexpression could promote the proliferation of Xiao Meishan swine's BMSCs and markedly reduce their apoptosis, which provides evidence for in vivo research.

Objective To explore the current status of job satisfaction of clinical medical staff and factors that influence the job satisfaction,and to put forward coping strategies and suggestions for improving the job satisfaction of clinical medical staff,so as to maintain workforce stability.Methods The paper will investigate the job satisfaction of clinical medical staff by sending questionnaires to all doctors and nurses working in a hospital,and use descriptive analysis and T test statistic method to analyze the current status of job satisfaction of questionnaire receivers as well as different dimensions of job satisfaction among different population groups.Results More than 85％ of questionnaire receivers think that the job they are doing is at higher risk.Over 80％ feel stressed out by their jobs.Less than 35％ are satisfied with their occupations,social status,working status,job security,and promotion opportunities.Less than 15％ feel respected by their jobs.Conclusions Generally,questionnaire receivers' job satisfaction is low.Heavy workload and poor quality of life are leading factors that contribute to their low job satisfaction.In this sense,we should adopt various measures to give attention to these key population groups.

Objective To determine the effect of proinflammatory cytokines including interleukin-lbeta (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-Alpha (TNF-α) on human serotonin transporter (SERT) in human enterocyte-like cell line Caco-2.Methods Caco2 cells were cultured for 5 days,then were divided into control group.IL-1β treated group (50 ng/ml) and TNF-α treated group (50ng/ml) for 2.24,48 and 72 hours.The expression of SERT mRNA was detected by RT-PCR at 2,24 and 48 hours and its protein expression was measured by Western blotting at 24,48 and 72 hours.Results The expression of SERT mRNA at 2,24 and 48 hours was lower both in IL-1β treated group (1.393±1.184,1.064±0.625 and 1.013±0.415,respectively) and TNF-α treated group (1.000±0.000,0.829±0.162and 0.945±0.147,respectively) in comparison with control group (2.282±1.367,1.586±0.421 and 1.86 ±O.496,respectively).There was significant difference among three groups (P<0.01).The expression of SERT protein at 24,48 and 72 hours was lower in IL-1β treated group and TNF-α treated group than in control group.Conclusions The IL-1β and TNF-α can inhibit the expressions of SERT mRNA and protein in Caco-2 cells,which indicates that IL-1β and TNF-α may change visceral sensitivity by influencing peripheral 5-hydroxytryptamine levels.

Objective To assess the expression of TNFα, IL-1β and the serotonin transporter (SERT) in adult rats of chronic visceral hypersensitivity induced by colon irritation during postnatal development, and to provide evidence to clarify the complex relationship between inflammatory cytokines and SERT among visceral hypersensitivity. Methods Sixteen neonatal male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly separated into two groups undergoing different treatments. The irritated group ( n = 8 ) was received intracolonic injections of acetic acid(0.5%) between postnatal days 8 and 21 and another group ( n = 8 )was received colonic infusion with 0. 9% saline served as control. When they became adults( ages 7 weeks),the threshold intensity for a visually identifiable contraction of the abdominal wall and body arching were recorded during rectal distention (RD) to evaluate visceral hypersensitivity. Histological evaluation and MPO activity assay were performed to quantify the inflammation. The expression of cytokine of colon was assessed through immunohistochemistry. The expression of SERT was examined by Western blot. Results Histological examination of the tissues showed no significant structural damage or loss of crypts. The MPO levels in both groups were similar[(0. 497 ±0. 570) unit/g vs (0. 623 ±0. 739) unit/g, P =0.724]. The threshold to elicit a distinctive abdominal muscle contraction in response to RD decreased from (0.40 ±0. 14) ml in the control group to (0. 19 ±0.06)ml in the irritated group. And the threshold for bodying arching decreased from (0.91 ± 0. 26 ) ml in the control group to ( 0. 47 ± 0. 13 ) ml in the irritated group (P ＜ 0. 01 ). Cytokine immunoreactivity was increased in the irritated group when compared to the control group (TNFα: 0. 194 ±0. 001 vs 0. 182 ±0. 001, P ＜0. 01; IL-1β: 0. 196 ±0. 002 vs 0. 185 ±0.001, P＜0. 01 ), while SERT expression were reduced in the irritated group (0. 298 ±0. 038 vs 0. 634 ±0. 200, P＜0. 05). Conclusion There is an increase in the proinflammatory cytokines and a decrease in the SERT expression associated with the presence of chronic visceral hypersensitivity, both of them may play an important role in the pathogenesis of visceral hypersensitivity.
