Objective: To understand the morphologic foundation for differences in drug-resistance, virulence and immunity between chloroquine-sensitive (N) and chloroquine-resistant (RC) strains of Plasmodium berghei. Methods: The RC strain and the N strain were compared concerning the formation and morphologic features of digestive vacuoles and haemozoin with transmission electron microscope. Results: There was a single large digestive vacuole and multiple micro-single-mem-braned vacuole-like structures in the trophozoites of the N strain, and haemozoins centralized and fused during their schizo-gony were situated under the plasma membrane. Whereas there were few digestive vacuoles in the trophozoites of the RC strain, but with multiple micro-single-membraned vacuole-like structures instead. The RC strain formed obviously less hemo-zoins than that of the N strain and the hemozoins were not centralized and fused during the schizogony. Conclusion: The RC strain forms multiple single-membraned food vacuole-like structures in the trophozoites, and has different mechanism for detoxifying free heme with N strain and the features may be the foundation for the difference in drug-resistance, virulence, immunity between RC strain and N strain of Plasmodium berghei.

Codon usage bias is an important characteristic of genetic information transfer in organisms. Analysis of codon usage bias of different species is important for understanding the rules on genetic information transfer. The previous method for analysis of codon usage bias is mainly based on genomic data. However, this method is greatly limited, because the genome sequences of higher organisms are still not available up to now. In this study, we found that we could obtain the same optimal codons of Ganoderma lucidum (Curtis: Fr.) P. Karst based on its whole genomic data or large-scale transcriptomic data from its liquid-cultured hyphae, primordium and fruiting body, separately. This result indicated the feasibility to understand the codon usage bias based on the large-scale transcriptomic data. By calculating the proportion of rare codons of Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae in 26 terpene synthases (TS) of G. lucidum, we found that the rare codons of S. cerevisiae have a higher proportion in TS genes, while the rare codons of E. coli have relatively lower, suggesting that the TS genes of G. lucidum are possibly more difficult to be expressed in S. cerevisiae than in E. coli. Chemical synthesis of TS genes according to the yeast optimal codons will be an effective way to solve the problem on the mismatch of gene codon bias between the foreign genes and the host strain.

Objective To investigate the correlation of the initial arterial lactate (Lac) and 6-h lactate clearance rate (LCR) with prognosis in patients with acute paraquat poisoning (APP).Methods The included 132 APP patients (70 males and 62 females,age ranging 15-71,30 (18) [M (IQR)]treated at a single center between January 2009 and December 2013.Patients were divided into two groups:group A,survivors ＞ 28 days after admission (n =64); and group B,those died ≤ 28 days after admission (n =68).The prognostic values of arterial Lac and 6-h LCR during the acute stage of poisoning were evaluated.Results Paraquat dose ranged from 5-200 mL,20 mL (37.25 mL) [M (IQR)].The average time from poisoning to arrival at the emergency department was ranging 4-312 h,6 h (8.75h) [M (IQR)].Total mortality was 51.51％.There were no differences in age,gender,and length of time elapsed from poisoning to diagnosis between two groups.Survivors had a significantly lower dose of paraquat ingested compared with nonsurvivors (P ＜ 0.05).An ROC curve analysis determined that the dose had an area of 0.86 (95％ CI:0.80-0.92) and the volume cut-off point was 27.5 mL to predict the prognosis in patients with acute paraquat poisoning (75％ sensitivity,85.9％ specificity,Youden index 0.609).The initial arterial lactate level was higher in nonsurvivors than that in survivors.The ROC curve analysis indicated that the initial arterial lactate level had an area of 0.99 (95％ CI:0.99-1.00) and the concentration cut-off point was 5.050 mmoL/L to predicti prognosis in patients with acute paraquat poisoning (sensitivity 98.5％,specificity 100％,Youden index 0.985).The 6 h LCR was lower in nonsurvivors than that in survivors.ROC curve analysis showed that the 6-h LCR had an area of 0.99 (95 ％ CI:0.97-1.00) and the concentration cut-off point was 17.28％ to predict prognosis in APP patients (sensitivity 100％,specificity 97.1％,Youden index 0.971).Conclusions In the early stages of APP,initial arterial Lac and 6-h LCR are closely related to prognosis and may serve as prognostic factors.

Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptotic rate and bcl-2 protein content in cortical cells. Histological changes were also observed under light microscope. [Results] Early apoptotic changes were found in the model group and the apoptotic rate and bcl-2 protein content were higher than those in the mimic operation group; after treatment of YHT, the apoptotic rate in frontal lobe was decreased as compared with that in the model group and that in hippocampal gyrus remained higher than that in the mimic operation group and bcl-2 protein content was reduced to the level of the mimic operation group. [ Conclusion ] ICI is related to the apoptosis of nerve cells and YHT has been proved an effectual drug for the apoptosis.

AIM　To study the role of 5-HT in antinocieption produced by intrathecal indomethacin (Ind) in mice. METHOD　The antinocieption of indomethacin was investigated on the tail immersion test in mice；the contents of 5-HT, 5-HAA were assayed with fluorescent method. RESULT　Dose-dependent antinocieption was observed following intrathecal administration of Ind 1.8 mg*kg-1, the effect could be obliterated when the animals were pretreated with cyproheptadine. After intrathecal administration of Ind, the content of 5-HIAA in the spinal cord of mice was significantly increased, but PG had no effect. CONCLUSION　The result imply that intrathecal indomethacin could produce antinocieption; this effect is mediated by 5-HT. PG does not participate in the action of 5-HT.
