Objective To investigate the effect of Gekko on experimental autoimmune myositis(EAM)animal model.Methods From Nov.2003 to May.2004,in the first hospital of Ji Lin university,Guinea pigs were immunized with rabbit muscle homogenate in Freund's adjuvant and a generalized myositis fundamentally similar to humanpolymyositis was established.These animals were divided at random into A,B,C,D groups.A group were treated with small dose Gekko [1 250 mg/(kg?d)],B group were treated with large dose Gekko [3 750 mg/(kg?d)],C group were treated with preinisone [3 mg/(kg?d)],D group received no treatment.Sign,serum muscle enzyme,electromyography(EMG)and muscle biopsy changes were compared.Results A,B,C groups became better.D group showed no significant change.Conclusion Gekko is effective in therapy of EAM guinea pigs.The result of this study provides an evidence that Gekko mightbe used for the treatment of PM.

Objective Using stem tip of Gymnadenia conopsea in this experiment to investigate somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration in vitro.Methods Uniform dedign for the most suitable media for embryogenic callus induction and embryogenic cell complex,development of somatic embryo and plant regeneration were screened.Results The results showed that Chaturvedi and Mitra(CM)+6-BA 1.0 mg/L+IAA 2.0 mg/L+2,4-D 0.1 mg/L was fit for embryogenic callus and embryogenic cell complex induction.Percentage was 98%;The medium of development of somatic embryo and plant regeneration was CM+6-BA 1.00 mg/L+IAA 0.10 mg/L.Percentage was 100% and converted into plantlets with shoots and roots after 50 d culture on the same medium.Conclusion The observation of morphostructure and ultrastructure proves the process of somatic embryogenesis of G.conopsea.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors for adult community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) caused by Gram-negative bacilli in Tangshan, and provide reference for the early identification of Gram-negative bac?teria CAP and the clinical use of antibiotics. Methods Data of retrospective general information, physical examination, aux?iliary examination and pathogen were collected in patients with CAP in respiratory department from 6 hospitals in Tangshan between October 2011 to September 2012. According to the above data, the prognosis of patients with the team score (PORT) was calculated. The sputum samples were isolated for pathogen identification. Univariate logistic regression analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed for risk factors of Gram-negative bacilli. Results A total of 195 strains were isolated from 172 (32.45%) patients in 530 patients with CAP. There were 154 strains of Gram-negative ba?cilli (78.97%) and 41 strains of Gram-positive bacteria (21.03%) in 195 bacterial strains. Univariate logistic regression anal?ysis showed the possible risk factors of Gram-negative bacilli in patients with CAP including age≥65 years old, using antibi?otics before hospitalization, basic diseases, cerebrovascular disease, malnutrion, white blood cell abnormal, neutrophil count<1 × 109/L, PORT classification≥Ⅲ, total bilirubin>17.1μmol/L and blood urea nitrogen>7.1 mmol/L. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed the independent risk factors of Gram-negative bacilli in patients with CAP including us?ing antibiotics before hospitalization (OR=2.327, 95%CI 1.453-3.725), white blood cell abnormal (OR=2.904, 95%CI 1.879-4.490), PORT classification≥Ⅲ(OR=3.839, 95%CI 2.427-6.071), and blood urea nitrogen elevated (OR=4.133, 95%CI 2.585-6.606). Conclusion Clinical empirical anti-infection treatment should consider the risk factors including using antibiotics before hospitalization, white blood cell abnormal, PORT classification≥Ⅲ and blood urea nitrogen>7.1 mmol/L in patients with susceptible to Gram-negative bacteria infection.

Objective To explore the effect of IL-1? and IL-6 on MMP-3 gene expression in human coronary artery smooth muscle cells.Methods We used IL-1?(20 ?g/L) and IL-6(10 ?g/L) to stimulate human coronary artery smooth muscle cells,which were co-culture for 0,2,4,8,24,36 h.IL-1?(0,5,20,40 ?g/L) and IL-6(0,5,10,50 ?g/L) were used to stimulate human coronary artery smooth muscle cells,which were co-cultured for 6 h.Then we detected the gene expression by fluorescent quantitation PCR.Results In the same concentration of IL-1? and IL-6,gene expression was up-regulated at 2 h,at 8 h the expression reached the peak,then began to descend.In different concentration of IL-1? and IL-6,gene expression was up-regulated with the dose of IL-1? and IL-6(IL-1?: r=0.907,P=0.000;IL-6: r=0.919,P=0.000).There were significant differences in MMP-3 expression among different groups(IL-1?: F=24.047,P=0.000;IL-6: F=14.081,P=0.001).There were no significant differences in matrix metalloproteinase-3 between IL-1? 20 and 40 ?g/L groups(P=0.154) and between IL-6 5 ?g/L and 10 ?g/L(P=0.292).Conclusion It suggests that IL-1? and IL-6 can promote MMP-3 gene expression in human coronary artery smooth muscle cells,and it may be one of the mechanisms of inflammation effect in acute coronary syndrome.
