Using brartemicin as the leading compound, fifteen novel trehalose derivatives were designed and synthesized, and the structures were determined by 11H NMR, MS and element analysis. Inhibitory effects of the target compounds on the proliferation of A549, HepG2 and HUVEC cells were detectec by MTT assay. The abilities of adhesion, invasion and migration of A549 and HepG2 cells inhibited by the synthesized compounds were evaluated through Matrigel experiment and Transwell assay. The results showed that, the target compounds had no significant cytotoxicity (compared with the control, P>0.05) to A549, HepG2 and HUVEC cells at the dose range of 1-32 µmol.L-1. At the above dose range, the inhibitory effects of A549 cells adhesion, invasion and migration and HepG2 cells adhesion and invasion by compounds 79 and 82 are better than brartemicin.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the preventive use of antibacterials in patients undergoing cesarean section in our hospital.METHODS:A total of 360 medical records of patients undergoing cesarean section were randomly sampled in 2006(30 cases per month)for an analysis of the correlation between choice of antibacterials,combination rate and course of treatment etc and curative effects.RESULTS:Of the 360 cases,86.8% used second and third generation cephalosporins,6.3% fourth generation cephalosporin(cefepime),3.8% cephradine.CONCLUSION:No positive correlation was noted between choice of antibacterials and course of treatment and the curative effects in the prevention of postoperative infection.

Urethral stricture is one of the common complications after hypospadias repair,and it is related with the blood supply of materials used in urethra formation.The more severe and proximal hypospadias is,the higher possibility of stricture is.The patients with urethral stricture have the symptoms of stranguria and urinary retention,and they usually need re-surgery.The repair with well vascularized flap can decrease the occurrence of urethral stricture after hypospadias repair.

Objective To compare the reliability of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) and APACHE Ⅲ to estimate mortality of critical patients in abdominal surgery. Methods Two hundred and sixty-one critical patients in abdominal surgery were included in this study. The clinical data of the first day in ICU were collected and evaluated with both APACHE Ⅱand APACHE Ⅲ prognostic systems and statistical analysis were performed. Probability of survival (Ps) was compared with actual mortality. Results The scores of APACHE Ⅱ and APACHE Ⅲ of death group were significantly higher than those of survival group respectively (P

Objective The hippocampus has been used in Chinese medicine for a long time.Although it has the anti-decrepitude,anti-fatigue and anti-tumor effect,the molecular mechanism is not yet known.PI4-K,the first protein kinase in the PI pathway,should be the target molecular for drug screening.Methods We prepared antigen protein IOV-PI4-K through inside-out ghost,then the antibody-antigen reaction between IOV-PI4-K and its antibody A6D was tested by ELISA.Results Two different function groups,which could increase or decrease the binding affinity of PI4-K to its antibody,were screened out from the extracts of hippocampus.This fact indicated that there might be two different components to up-regulate or down-regulate the activity of PI4-K respectively.Conclusion Derivatives of the components could be developed into anti-tumor or anti-decrepitude drugs.Meanwhile,a new way for performing drug screen through ELISA was established.

Objective To observe the effect of transduetion of human wild type gene(wt-p53) mediated by recombinant adenovirus on cell growth, cell cycle and apoptosis of neuroblastoma (NB) cell line SH-SY5Y. Methods The NB cell line SH-SY5Y were transfected by recombinant adenovirus with green fluorescent protein(Ad-GFP). The suitable muhiplieity of infection (MOI) was determined after trans-fer efficiency was tested by flow cytometry (FCM). Both recombinant adenovirus(Ad) and recombinant adenovirus mediating wt-p53 gene (Ad-p53) were transfected into SH-SY5Y cells. SH-SY5Y cells without any transfection were used as blank group. The p53 protein expres-sion was validated by Western blot. Cell number was counted and growth curve was drawn. Both cell cycle and apoptesis were detected by FCM. Results The results indicated that the transfer efficiency of recombinant adenovirus to SH-SY5Y was satisfied, and 100 MOI was suitable. After transfection with Ad-p53, p53 protein was high expressed. Cell growth were inhibited, apoptosis and cell cycle arrest were in-duced in p53 gene transfeetion group. Conclusions Our results indicate that clinical application of the in vitro p53 gone modified tumor cell vaccine might be feasible and effective in clinical treatment of NB.

Job burnout has been a common problem in modem society, and medical professionals are vulnerable to it. The causes of burnout in medical professionals involve factors of social environment and system, institutional factors, occupational factors and personal factors. The intervention strategies at multiple levels are put forward, including to advocate concerning about the well-being of others and attaching importance to cultural value orientation of qualitative life-style, to construct harmonious doctor- patient relationship and good working environment, to enhance social public relations and establish good media image, to improve management system and operational mechanism at organizational level, and to enhance the coping ability at individual level by training.

Objective To explore the characteristics of deficit in action imitation upon objects for the children with autistic spectrum disorder(ASD). Methods Imitative tasks involved objects under the condition of different time after the modelling action ,different action number, different action meaning were used to examine the variations between 12 young children with ASD,and with deaf children(D) matched with the non-verbal IQ and CA( n= 12) ,and children with mental retardation (MR) matched with verbal IQ and CA( n= 12). Results Analyses of repeated ANOVA revealed that: there were significant main effect on the imitation of action involved objects within three subjects(F(2.33) = 10. 138, P＜0.01 ) ;the individuals with ASD achieved lower scores(0.766 ±0.029 ) than the children with MR (0.861 ± 0. 029 ), and the children with deaf significantly ( 0. 949 ± 0. 029). Especially,the autistic imitation deficit was shown on tasks of deferred and meaningless action imitation. Conclusion Children with ASD show deficit on imitation involved objects significantly.
