Objective To synthesize 628F-Py-AMD3465,to investigate its biodistribution in mice and to perform the microPET/CT imaging on mice bearing human lung cancer cell (A549).Methods AMD3465 quaternary ammonium salt precursor was directly labeled with 18F,then 628F-Py-AMD3465 was synthesized through nucleophilic reaction,hydrolysis,neutralization and the product was purified using HPLC.The labeling yield and radiochemical purity were analyzed by HPLC.Fifteen Kunming mice were injected with 5.55 MBq of 628F-Py-AMD3465 and sacrificed at 5,20,40,60 and 120 min postinjection.The selected tissues were harvested and weighed,and the radioactivity in the tissues was measured by an automated γ-spectrometer.The ％ID/g was calculated.MicroPET/CT studies were performed on A549-bearing mice after injecting 6-18F-Py-AMD3465 through vena caudal.Paired t test was used.Results 6-18F-Py-AMD3465 was successfully synthesized with the labeling yield of (9.0±2.0)％,the total synthesis time was about 60 min,and the radiochemical purity was more than 98％.Biodistribution studies showed that the radiouptake was higher in the kidneys and bladder of normal mice,which demonstrated that 6-18 F-Py-AMD3465 was mainly excreted through the kidneys.Biodistribution in A549-bearing mice was similar to that in normal mice.The tumor/muscle ratio at 40 min was 5.0,but the radiouptake of the tumor was still lower than that of the normal lung:(8.05±0.35) ％ID/g vs (9.33±0.66) ％ID/g;t=5.26,P＜0.05.MicroPET/CT imaging showed that the high-uptake location of 6-18F-Py-AMD3465 in tumor-bearing mice was similar to the normal mice,and the tumor uptake reached the maximum level at 45 min post-injection (SUV 0.67).Conclusions 6-18F-Py-AMD3465 can be synthesized by a simple method.A lower uptake could be shown in the tumor compared to that in the lung and the tracer has limited diagnostic value for lung cancer.

Objective To establish erythromycin resistance models of Streptococcus pneumoniae for analysis of the mutations in the binding domain of erythromycin. Methods Streptococcus pneumonia tigr4 and two clinical sensitive isolates were induced with erythromycin by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method for antimicrobial susceptibility, and then the rplD, rplV genes, and 23S rRNA in sensitive and resistant strains were amplified by PCR and RT-PCR for sequencing. CPHmodels-2.0 was used to predict the spatial structures of ribosomal protein L4 and L22 coded by rplD and rplV genes. Results MIC of Streptococcus pneumonia tigr4 increased from 0.0312 mg/L to 256mg/L while MICs of the two clinical isolates increased from 0.0312 mg/L to 32 mg/L. Comparison of the pre-and post-induction results showed V32A mutation in ribosomal protein L4, D35G mutation in ribosomal protein L22, and 67QK68 to 67RE68 mutations in ribosomal protein L4. Changes in spatial structure was found in SiThe ribosomal protein L22 and ribosomal protein L4 due to D35G, Q67R, and K68E mutations respectively. Conclusion Streptococcus pneumonia can be induced to resistant to erythromycin in vitro. The mechanisms of resistance may be relate to the new mutations in the binding domain of erythromycin.

BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive transforaminal interbody fusion (Mis-TLIF) for spondylolisthesis has been introduced to reduce muscle trauma, minimize blood loss, and achieve earlier rehabilitation. However, there is a lack of evidence-based medicine concerning the therapeutic efficacy of Mis-TLIF versus open TLIF for spondylolisthesis. OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Mis-TLIF versus open TLIF for spondylolisthesis.METHODS: WanFang, CNKI, PubMed, and Cochrane Library databases were searched using the keywords of spondylolisthesis, minimally invasive transforaminal interbody fusion, open transforaminal interbody fusion in English and Chinese, respectively. The quality evaluation and data extraction of the included literatures were conducted by two authors independently. A meta-analysis was performed on RevMan 5.3 software.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Ten literatures were included, including 7 retrospective and 3 randomized controlled trials; 963 cases were enrolled (489 cases of Mis-TLIF, 474 cases of open TLIF). (1) Meta-analysis results showed that there were no significant differences in the operation time, postoperative complication rate, and fusion rate at the last follow-up between two groups, suggesting that the two methods expose analogical effects on the pain relief and functional recovery. (2) There were significant differences in the intraoperative blood loss and radiological times between two methods. (3) To conclude, Mis-TLIF holds similar operation time, incidence of complications and functional recovery with open TLIF, accompanied by minimized trauma, and reduced intraoperative and postoperative blood loss, which is considered as a safe and effective surgical method.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic spine system in thoracic discectomy for disc herniation. Methods One patient with thoracic disc herniation involved the level of vertebral segment in T11/12 was treated with percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic spine system and followed up for 1 month. The targeted puncture was performed under local anesthesia and fluoroscopic guidance with patient in prone position. The foramen of T 11/12 was enlarged gradually with four trephinations, and the working cannula was inserted transforaminal into the canal. Then the herniation was exposed and removed with full endoscopic technique, including the loosen nucleus pulposus. The dural sac was exposed and released adequately. Drainage was placed during operation. Results The procedure was successfully carried out and the dural sac was completely released. The drainage was removed in the second day of operation. The patient could walk in the third day after operation with obvious relief of back and leg pain. At the follow-up of one month postoperation, the visual analogue scale of leg pain decreased from 8 to 1, and the Oswestry disability index (ODI) decreased from 64 to 4. According to MacNab scale, excellent result was acquired. Conclusion There is the feasibility of the percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic spine system in thoracic discectomy for disc herniation. It is a good minimal invasive technique with good results and high technical requirements for surgeons.

Objective To identify the variation in the Env region of SHIV-XJ02170 during passaging in Chinese origin Rhesus Macaques.Methods Fragments of the SHIV-XJ02170 gp160 and gp120 gene were amplified by PCR and RT-PCR separately from the blood samples of SHIV-XJ02170 infected animals at the peak viral load time point.Purified RT-PCR product was ligated into T easy vector and transformed into JM109 competent cells,18 clones were selected by PCR method and sequenced by ABI 3730DNA sequencers.The gene distances(divergence,diversity)were calculated using DISTANCE.Results In all,the SHTV-XJ02170 gp120 gene evolved forward along the virus passaging.It could be found that viral divergence from the founder strain serially enhanced during in vivo passaging,but in the early phase of each passage,SHIV-XJ02170 gp120 gene evolved toward ancestral state upon transmission to a new host.All of the SHIV-XJ02170 strains had V3 loop central motif(GPGQ)and were predicted to be using CCR5 on the basis of the critical amino acids within V3 loop.Conclusion There was significant increase in the genetic distance during serial passaging,and SHIV-XJ02170 gp120 gene evolved forward along passaging.This could partly explain why the virus infectivity was enhanced during in vivo passaging.

Objective To analyze the virologic and immunologic properties during SHIV-XJ02170passage in vivo and construct the clade C SHIV/Chinese origin Rhesus macaques AIDS model . Methods SHIV-XJ02170 cell-free virus tranfected in 293T was adapted by serial passage in nine Chinese-origin Rhesus macaques. CD4/CD8 ratio was detected by flow cytometry to analyze the changes in viral pathogenicity. Real-time RT-PCR and IFN-γsecreting ELISPOT methods were used to analyze changes in characteristics of virology and immunology. Results During in vivo passage, CD4/CD8 ratio did not deeply decline. However,the peak and setpoint viral load in the line 3 show a continuous upward trend. The strong humoral and cellular immune responses were induced after SHIV-XJ02170 infection. Meanwhile, there was significant positive correlation between the viral load and binding antibody titer. Conclusion There were no pathogenic viral strains, and upward trend in virulence of SHIV-XJ02170 was found during in vivo passaging. SHIVXJ02170/Chinese origin Rhesus macaques model will play an important role in effect evaluation of candidate AIDS vaccines in China.

Fourteen psychrotrophic bacteria were isolated from swamp soil collected in Ruoergai plateau wetland,and their generation time and degrading ability of livestock wastewater CODcr was determined.The results showed that the generation time was within 4.9 h to 11.6 h.Based on the generation time,9 psychro-trophic strains(NLJ1,NLJ6,NLJ7,NLJ9,NLJ10,NLJ11,NLJ12,NLJ13 and NLJ14),whose generation time was within 4.9 h to 5.6 h,were chosen to treat livestock wastewater.The results suggested that these 9 strains had different CODcr disposal ability when treating livestock wastewater singly at 6?C for 6 h,and strains NLJ6,NLJ7,NLJ9,NLJ10,NLJ11 and NLJ13 had good ability to degrade livestock wastewater,the CODcr degrading rate was about 60%~70%,hence,they were used as high efficient strains;However,the CODcr degrading rate of the other strains was less than 50%.After inoculating mixture culture of these six strains into the distilled livestock wastewater,after 6 h's treating,the CODcr degrading rate reached to 85.42%.Furthermore,activated sludge collected from Yaan,Dujiangyan and Chengdu were inoculated by the mixture culture of those six strains,and used to treat livestock wastewater for 6 h.The results showed that the average CODcr degrading rate was 81.67%,76.32% and 70.56%,respectively;Variance analysis showed that there was no significant differentiation between each treatment,which revealed that those six psychrotrophic strains had good adaptability to different source of activated sludge.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of cold or hot properties of traditional Chinese medicines (TCM) on biological effect indexes, and analyze the contribution of variables on cold or hot properties, in order to preliminarily establish the discrimination mode for the biological effects of cold or hot properties.

METHODRats were randomly divided into the blank control group, cold TCM groups (Coptidis Rhizoma, Scutellariae Radix, Phellodendri Cortex, Gardeniae Fructus, Sophorae Flavescentis Radix and Gentianae Radix) and hot TCM groups (Aconiti Lateralis Preparata Radix, Zingiberis Rhizoma, Alpiniae Officinarum Rhizoma, Zanthoxyli Pericarpium, Cinnamomi Cortex and Evodiae Fructus), and orally administered with 10 mL x kg(-1) of corresponding TCM water decoctions for 30 d, twice a day. Altogether 53 biological effect indexes correlated to cold or hot properties of traditional Chinese medicines were founded by searching literatures. The data warehouse were established by using data-mining software Clementine12.0. Data of the blank control group, cold TCM groups (Coptidis Rhizoma, Phellodendri Cortex, Gardeniae Fructus, Sophorae Flavescentis Radix, Gentianae Radix) and hot TCM groups (Aconiti Lateralis Preparata Radix, Zingiberis Rhizoma, Alpiniae Officinarum Rhizoma, Zanthoxyli Pericarpium, Cinnamomi Cortex) were selected into a training set. C5.0 algorithm and C&R classification and regression algorithm were adopted to define the importance of variable, create the decision trees, and test hot or cold properties of Evodiae Fructus and Scutellariae Radix.

RESULTAccording to C&R classification and regression algorithm, SDH activity of livers was the most important hot or cold property, with the significance closed to 30%. It was followed by triglyceride, liver Na' -K' -ATPase enzyme, muscle glycogen and platelet distribution width, with the accuracy up to 97.39% in models. C5.0 algorithm showed that liver SDH activity was the most important hot or cold property, with the significance closed to 40%. It was followed by triglyceride, GOT, muscle glycogen and liver Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase enzyme, with the accuracy up to 98.26% in models. The possibilities that Evodiae Fructus is in hot property and Scutellariae Radix is in cold property were 100. 00% and 77.78% by using both C&R classification and regression algorithm and C5.0 algorithm.

CONCLUSIONThe SDH activity of liver is the most important biological effect index to distinguish cold and hot properties of TCMs. The discrimination pathway or mode of cold and hot properties is closely related to energy metabolism.

SHIV-CN97001 played an important role in assessing the immune effect and strategy of the AIDS vaccine which included genes of the predominant prevalent HIV-1 strain in China. In this study, SHIV-CN97001 was in vivo passaged serially to construct pathogenic SHIV-CN97001/rhesus macaques model. To identify variation in the gp120 region of SHIV-CN97001 during passage, the fragments of gp120 gene were amplified by RT-PCR from the plasma of SHIV-CN97001 infected animals at the peak viral load time point and the gene distances (divergence, diversity) were calculated using DISTANCE. The analysis revealed that the genetic distances of SHIV-CN97001 in the third passage animals were the highest during in vivo passage. It had a relationship between viral divergence from the founder strain and viral replication ability. The nucleic acid sequence of the V3 region was highly conservative. All of the SHIV-CN97001 strains had V3 loop central motif (GPGQ) and were predicted to be using CCR5 co-receptor on the basis of the critical amino acids within V3 loop. These results show that there was no significant increase in the genetic distance during serial passage, and SHIV-CN97001 gp120 gene evolved toward ancestral states upon transmission to a new host. This could partly explain why there was no pathogenic viral strain obtained during in vivo passage.
