Objectives To investigate antimicrobial resistance and beta-lactamase production of Moraxella catarrhalis isolates from respiratory tract in children and to understand the characteristics of BRO beta-lactamase gene. Methods From June 2011 to Sep-tember 2012, 401 Moraxella catarrhalis isolates were obtained from respiratory tract in children. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of commonly-used antibiotics were determined by microbroth dilution assay, and beta-lactamase production was detected by Nitroceifn disk test. PCR combining restriction endonuclease analysis was employed to do the BRO genotyping. Results 96.5%iso-lates were beta-lactamase positive (387/401), MIC (MIC50/MIC90) values and resistant rates of beta-lactamase producing isolates were higher than those of non beta-lactamase producing isolates for ampicillin, cefaclor and cefuroxime (P<0.05). The positive rate of BRO gene was 99.2%in beta-lactamase producing isolates (384/387), consisting of 93.0%BRO-1 isolates and 7.0%BRO-2 isolates. MIC50 and MIC90 values of BRO-1+isolates were higher than those of BRO-2+isolates for ampicillin, cefaclor, cefuroxime and azithromycin. Conclusions The beta-lactamase production rate is high in Moraxella catarrhalis isolates from respiratory tract in children. BRO-1 type was the dominant genotype of beta-lactamase producing isolates, having more inlfuence than BRO-2 type in the inlfuence on some beta-lactams and macrolides.

Aim To investigate the reversal effect of cinobufacine(Cino)on adrimycin(ADM)resistant human breast cancer cell line MCF-7/ADM.Methods The cytotoxic effect of Cino or ADM and the sensitivity of ADM to cells was determined by MTT assay.The intracellular concentration of ADM was detected by HPLC. The expression of P-glycoprotein(P-gp)was examined by flow cytometric(FCM) .Results The maximum non-toxic dose Cino(15 mg?L-1) increased the sensitivity of ADM in MCF-7/ADM,decreased the IC50 of ADM in MCF-7/ADM from 38.14 mg?L-1 to 12.93 mg?L-1, and significantly increased the intracellular concentration of ADM in MCF-7/ADM and reduced the expression of P-glycoprotein.Conclution The results showed that Cino can partially reverse multidrug resistance(MDR)of MCF-7/ADM cells and the mechanism might be associated with the increase of intracellular accumulation of ADM and the reduced expression of P-glycoprotein(P-gp)in MCF-7/ADM cells.

Objective To study the relationship between umbilical cord leptin levels and fetal growth as well as neonatal birth weight. Methods One hundred and forty - two neonates selected from February 2009 to June 2013 in Shangqiu First People's Hospital according to the different gestational age and birth weight were divided into 3 groups. Group A included 44 cases(small for gestational age,birth weight below the average weight of the 10th percentile at the same gestational age),23 boy cases,21 girl cases;group B included 56 cases(appropriate for gestational age,birth weight at the average weight of the 10th to 90th percentile at the same gestational age),30 boy cases,26 girl cases;group C included 42 cases(large for gestational age,birth weight above the average weight of the 90th percentile at the same gestational age),22 boy cases,20 girl cases. Neonatal body mass index,birth weight,placenta weight and umbilical lep-tin levels of three groups were compared. Results Neonatal birth weight,neonatal body length,body mass index and the placenta weight leptin levels in group A were significantly lower than those of group B,having statistically significant difference(all P ﹤ 0. 001);Neonatal birth weight,neonatal body length,body mass index and the placenta weight leptin levels in group C were significantly higher than those in group B,with statistically significant difference( all P ﹤0. 001). Neonatal birth weight in the boy group was obviously higher than that of the girl group,and the difference was statistically significant(P ﹤ 0. 001). Neonatal leptin levels in the boy group were significantly lower than that of the girl group,and the difference was statistically significant(P ﹤ 0. 001). There were positive correlations between the umbili-cal cord leptin levels and the neonatal birth weight,neonatal length,neonatal weight index and the placenta weight(r =0. 382,0. 276,0. 358,0. 412,all P ﹤ 0. 01). Conclusions The umbilical cord leptin levels are closely associated with neonatal birth weight and intrauterine growth retardation,and it can be used as one of the important indicators for reflec-ting neonatal birth weight and fetal growth.
