Objective:To study the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of the volatile oil from Piper puberulum ( Benth. ) Max-im. in Guizhou. Methods:Fifty KM mice were randomly divided into five groups (10 ones in each), the model control group (sa-line), low concentration volatile oil group (0. 125 ml/100 ml), medium concentration volatile oil group (0. 25 ml/100ml), high con-centration volatile oil group (0. 5 ml/100 ml) and aspirin group (3 mg·ml-1). Mouse ear swelling induced by xylene and skin capil-lary permeability were used to evaluate anti-inflammatory activity of the volatile oil from Piper puberulum ( Benth. ) Maxim. in Guizhou. Acetic acid-induced abdominal eonstrietion test and hot-plate test were applied to evaluate anti-analgesic activity of the vola-tile oil from Piper puberulum ( Benth. ) Maxim. In Guizhou. Results:Compared with that in the model group, the mouse ear swelling in the medium concentration volatile oil group, high concentration volatile oil group and aspirin group was significantly reduced ( P<0. 05). The skin capillary permeability in the high concentration volatile oil group and aspirin group was significantly reduced (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Compared with that in the model group, the writhing times in the medium concentration volatile oil group, high concentration volatile oil group and aspirin group were significantly reduced (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). The pain threshold in the high concentration volatile oil group was effectively reduced (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Conclusion: The volatile oil from Piper puberulum ( Benth. ) Maxim. in Guizhou has promising anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities.

Objective To explore optimal initial the best screening time for newborns with different delivery methods using AABR.Methods A total of 550 newborns who were born from August 1, 2016 to October 31, 2016 at our hospital participated in the study.AABR was used to accomplish the initial hearing screening.The newborns were divided into 2 groups according to the delivery methods.There were each 100 neonates born in vaginal during <24 h, 24~48 h and 48~72 h after birth, respectively.The numbers of neonates delivered by cesarean section during the 3 separate periods were 50, 100 and 100, respectively.The newborns who failed the preliminary hearing screening proceeded to the re-screening and diagnostic procedures.Results There were 300 newborns were born in vaginal, and the pass rate in 24~48 h after birth group was significantly higher than that in 24 h group (93.00% vs 83.00%,x2=4.735,P=0.03<0.05), but it was not significantly different from that of 48~72 h group (95.00% vs 93.00%,x2=0.355,P=0.56>0.05).There were 250 newborns in cesarean section, the pass rate of 24~48 h after birth group was significantly higher than that in 24 h group (83.00% vs 68.00%,x2=4.437, P=0.04<0.05), and significantly lower than that of 48~72 h group (94.00% vs 83.00%,x2=5.944, P=0.02<0.05).Conclusion Taking into account of hospitalization time, the screening time for the vaginal delivery newborn hearing screening can be advanced to 24~48 h after birth with the application of AABR, but not for the cesarean section group.

Aim To construct the cell model targeted on the damage by α-synuclein for screening anti-Parkinson’s Disease (PD)compounds.Methods The cDNA fragment of α-synucle-in gene was obtained by PCR methods and inserted into the re-combinant prokaryotic plasmid by molecular cloning technique. The recombinant plasmid was transformed into Escherichia coli, and subsequently induced to express α-synuclein protein.The recombinant α-synuclein was purified and identified by affinity chromatography,immunoblotting and mass spectrometry.The cells damage by α-synuclein was evaluated through cell viability measured by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl )-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide.Results The obtained cDNA fragment ofα-synuclein in accordance with its theoretic molecular weight was cloned into pET30a plasmid and verified by sequencing.The re-combinant plasmid was transformed into bacteria E.Coli.BL21 (DE3)and induced to express α-synuclein by isopropyl β-D-1 -thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG).The expression condition was op-timized according to the culture temperature,the concentration of IPTG and the proliferation state of bacteria.The purified α-synu-clein was proved to be a 1 5.3 ku molecule weight protein,and could be immunoblotted with anti-α-synuclein antibody.The pu-rified α-synuclein could decrease the viability of PC1 2 cells and primary neurons significantly,and its effect was in a concentra-tion-dependent manner.Conclusion We have succeeded in constructing the cell model targeted on the damage by α-synucle-in.

Objective To analyze the clinical and imaging characteristics of congenital sensorineural hearing loss (CSNHL)children combined with white matter (WM)lesions in order to provide evidence for clinical practice. Methods With referral to the Department of Pediatrics,Peking University First Hospital from November 201 1 to De-cember 201 5,documents of 78 patients of CSNHL combined with WMlesions were collected and analyzed for the clini-cal and imaging characteristics.Results Bilateral severe -profound hearing loss existed in all 78 cases,48.1 %(25 /52 cases)of the patients exhibited gross motor development delay,98.1 %(51 /52 cases)of them had normal cognition development.One hundred percent (61 /61 cases)of patients had abnormal language development.Infection occurring during pregnancy existed in 21 .2%(1 1 /52 cases)of the patients,the premature and smaller for the gestational age in-fants accounted for 28.9% (1 5 /52 cases).The bilateral multiple WMlesions from the brain MRI were in dot to flake sizes with sharp boundary,the intensity of T1 -weighted imaging decreased,T2 -weighted imaging and fluid attenuated inversion recovery increased.Eighty -two point one percent (64 /78 cases)of the patients were found to have the periventricular and subcortical WM involvement.The most frequently affected periventricular region was the posterior horn (91 .9%,68 /74 cases),followed by the anterior horn and temporal horn,and the least with the body involvement. The former three had a combined lesion tendency (55.4% -68.9%).There was an extensive involvement in the sub-cortical WMof parietal,frontal,temporal and occipital lobes respectively(73.5% -88.2%).Subcortical WM involve-ment of multiple lobes was common (accounted for 67.6% -77.9%).The enlargement of bilateral ventricles existed in 37.2%(29 /78 cases)of the patients and cystic changes in the subcortical WM of anterior temporal lobe could be found in 9.0% (7 /78 cases)patients.Calcification in 2 CT cases was reported.Corpus callosum and basal ganglia of all cases were normal.For cases with MRI scans more than once,WMlesions of 96.0%(24 /25 cases)patients became silent or self -restored.Conclusions The clinical presentations of CSNHL combined with WM lesions are mild,not paralleled with their multiple foci.It is considered as demyelination or a delay of myelination.Due to its benign course, it is probably not the contraindication for the cochlear implantation.

Objective To investigate whether cyclic GMP-AMP synthase ( cGAS ) , a cytosolic DNA sensor, could recognize the reverse transcription intermediate and induce the subsequent signaling path-way during the infection of human T cell leukemia virus type 1 ( HTLV-1 ) . Methods Biotin-labeled ssDNA90, a reverse transcription intermediate of HTLV-1, was transfected into HeLa cells and the interac-tion between it and cGAS was detected by co-immunoprecipitation experiments. HeLa cells were co-cultured with HTLV-1-positive MT2 cells and the interaction between cGAS and stimulator of interferon genes ( STING) was analyzed by co-immunoprecipitation experiments. The expression of STING in HeLa cells was silenced by siRNA. cGAS was transfected into the HeLa cells 24 h after the silencing and after 24 h, these cells were co-cultured with MT2 cells for another 24 h. Real-time PCR assay was used to measure the ex-pression of IFN-β, RANTES ( regulated upon activation, normal T-cell expressed, and secreted) , TNF-α, HTLV-1 protein Tax, p19 and HBZ. Immunoblot assay was performed to evaluate the phosphorylation of IRF3 and p65 in HeLa cells. Results cGAS interacted with ssDNA90. cGAS interacted with STING in the cytoplasm. In STING-silenced HeLa cells, cGAS transfection had no influence on the expression of IFN-β, RANTES , TNF-α, Tax , p19 or HBZ , nor did it affect the phosphorylation of IRF3 or p65 . Conclusions cGAS interacted with HTLV-1 RTI ssDNA90 and activated STING-dependent innate immune responses.
