Using of clearing zones on pachyman agar medium, there are 217 plant endophytic actinomycetes, producing ?-1,3-glucanase were screened. 45.6% of the strains produced ?-1,3-glucanase, in which the strains from cucumber are up to 38. The percentages of endophytic actinomycetes from different hosts produceing ?-1,3-glucanases were different. The percentage of the strains in Rhizoma Polygonatum produced ?-1,3-glucanases is the highest, up to 88.9%. The Inhibited effects of plant endophytic actinomycetes which produced extracellular ?-1,3-glucanases on mycelium growth of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum were detected in vitro. Cucumber endophytic actinomycete gCLA4 strain was screened out from 99 isolates, which can strongly inhibit the growth of S. sclerotiorum. The optimal ?-1,3-glucanases fermentation conditions of strain gCLA4 were investigated, they were pachyman 0.2%, peptone as nitrogen, pH 7～8 for 5 days. The ?-1,3-glucanases of strain gCLA4 had some inhibiting efficiency on 13 plant pathogens, in which inhibiting efficiency to Botryosphaeria dothidea was the strongest.

Background Salivary transplantation or duct transposition can provide continuous physiological secretion of tear substitutes.This may be an ideal method in treatment of dry eye.But the relative anatomical literatures is few,and some of the conclusions in the literatures are still controversial,which limit its clinical application.Objective This study was to discuss the possibility and the advantage and disadvantage of applying three major salivary glands to treat xerophthalmia.Methods The relationship between the branches of the facial nerve out of the parotid gland and the salivary glands,the salivary glands size,origin of blood supply,out diameter of vessels and adjacent relation were observed in 34 sides pate specimens perfused with red latex under the operating microscope.To find the vessels in recipient site to anastomose,the vessels around fossa orbitalis and forehead were anatomized and observed.The parotid gland duct transfer operation,the submandibular gland free transplantation surgery and sublingual gland free transplantation surgery in the human anatomy specimens were simulated.Results The position of parotid duct was constant.The duct length was(4.20± 1.10) cm,duct diameter was (O.60±0.30) cm.The stensen's duct was likely to be prolonged by the cheek mucous membrane or venous andthe damage of buccal branch,zygomatic branch and temporal branches of facial nerve should be avoided during the operation of transplanting stensen' s duct.When submandibular gland was transplanted,facial vessel was taken as its pedicle,whose outside diameter was (2.70 ± 0.28) mm,and the length of the transplant vascular pedicle was (1.90 ± O.30) cm.Thc anastomosed vessel was superficial temporal vessel in recipient site.When sublingual gland was transplanted,sublingual(88.2％,30 sides) or submental vessel(11.8％,4 sides) was taken as its pedicle,whose outside diameter was(1.92±0.36) mm and (1.96±0.54) mm,and the length of the transplant vascular pedicle was(2.60± 1.10) cm and(3.50±0.40) cm,and the anastomosed vessel was the frontal branch of superficial temporal vessel in recipient site.Three sides of specimens lacked sublingual glands.Conclusions It is feasible that treating severe xerophthalmia by the operation of grafting the major salivary glands or transplanting stensen' s duct on the point of anatomical view.Parotid duct inversion and the submandibular gland transplantation have been applied to clinic.However,sublingual transplantation remains to be further confirmed by the animal experiments.

Objective To evaluate X-ray,CT and MRI findings of soft tissue infections in AIDS. Methods Three cases of soft tissue infections with AIDS were retrospectively analyzed by comparing the imaging findings with pathological results.All patients were performed MRI,X-ray was in 1 case,CT was in 1 case.Results Cellulitis was in 1 case:MRI showed extended thickening of subcutaneous tissues, ill-defined hypointense areas on T_1WI and hyperintensity on T_2WI,and reticular pattern on GRE. Necrotizing fasciitis was in 1 case:MRI showed obvious thickening of subcutaneous tissues and deep fasciae, abnormally increased signal intensity on T_1 and T_2WI.Fluid collections were within muscles and muscles interval on fat-suppressed T2 WI.Tuberculosis was in 1 case:CT demonstrated multiple low density areas in the subcutaneous tissues and clear peripheral rim enhancement.MRI appeared hypointense on T_1WI and hyperintensity on T_2WI,and peripheral rim enhancement following gadolinium injection.Conclusion Infections of soft tissue are common complication in patients with AIDS,radiology is important in early diagnosis and treatment planning in this population.

OBJECTIVETo assess the curative effects of different drugs on liver cell damage of rats induced by acute nickel carbonyl poisoning.

METHODSIn present study 220 SD rats were divided into control group (10 rats), carbonyl nickel group (10 rats), 20 mg/kg methylprednisolone group (40 rats), 100 mg/kg DDC group (40 rats), 10 µmol/kg sodium selenite group (40 rats), 0.25 ml shenfuhuiyangtang group (40 rats) and 20 mg/kg methylprednisolone with 100 mg/kg DDC group (40 rats). All rats except for control group inhaled passively 250 mg/m(3) carbonyl nickel for 30 minutes. At 4h and 30h after exposure, the drugs were given intraperitoneally to the rats. On the 3rd and 7th days after exposure, the liver samples were taken from 10 rats each group. The DNA damage of liver cells was detected using comet assay, the ultrastructure changes in liver cells were examined under an electronmicroscope.

RESULTSCompared to carbonyl nickel group, the tail lengths of liver cells in 5 groups administrated at 4 h or 30 h and tested on the 3rd or 7th day after exposure decreased significantly (P < 0.05). Compared to the control group, the tail lengths of liver cells in sodium selenite and shenfuhuiyangtang groups administrated at 4h after exposure or sodium selenite, shenfuhuiyangtang and methylprednisolone with DDC groups administrated at 30h after exposure increased significantly (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), when tested on the 3rd day after exposure. Except from methylprednisolone sub-group administrated at 4h and tested on the 7th day after exposure, the tail lengths of liver cells in other groups administrated at 4 h or 30 h and tested on the 7th day after exposure increased significantly (P < 0.05). Compared to carbonyl nickel group, the Olive moment of liver cells in 5 groups administrated at 4 h or 30 h tested on the 3rd or 7th day after exposure decreased significantly (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Compared to the control group, the Olive moment of liver cells in following groups (selenite and shenfuhuiyangtang groups administrated at 4 h or 30 h and tested on the 3rd or 7th day after exposure, DDC group administrated at 4 h or 30 h and tested on the 7th day after exposure, DDC group administrated at 30h and tested on the 3rd day after exposure, and methylprednisolone with DDC group administrated at 30 h and tested on the 7th day after exposure) increased significantly (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). As compared with carbonyl nickel group, the ultrastructure observation indicated that the nucleus and other organelles of liver cells in methylprednisolone, DDC and methylprednisolone with DDC groups administrated at 4h and tested on the 3rd day were access to normal levels.

CONCLUSIONThe results of present study showed that methylprednisolone, DDC and methylprednisolone with DDC could improve obviously the repair of rat liver cell damage induced by acute carbonyl nickel poisoning, and the curative effects of early treatment were better than those of later treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the mechanism of enalapril for renal interstitial fibrosis by observing the effect of enalapril on the expression of transforming growth factor-beta1(TGF-beta1), p-Smad2/3 and Smad7 in renal tissuess of unilateral urethral obstruction (UUO) rat model. METHODS: Thirty female Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly subdivided into a sham-operated group, a model group and an enalapril treated group. UUO model was induced by ligating the left ureter of rats. All rats were sacrificed 14 days after UUO. Pathological changes of the renal tissue were observed by HE and Masson staining, the protein expressions of Collagen I (ColI), TGF-beta1, p-Smad2/3 and Smad7 were detected by immunohistochemical staining,and the mRNA expressions of TGF-beta1 and Smad7 were detected by RT-PCR. RESULTS: The renal interstitial damage index, the relative Collagen area and the expression of ColI in the model group significantly increased(P<0.01). Enalapril reduced these indexes. The protein and mRNA expressions of TGF-beta1 and the protein expressions of p-Smad2/3 were low in the sham-operated group, but were strongly positive in the model group, and enalapril could decrease the expressions of TGF-beta1 and p-Smad2/3(P<0.01). The protein and mRNA expressions of Smad7 in the model group were less than that in the sham-operated group(P<0.01),and enalapril could improve the expressions of Smad7(P<0.01). CONCLUSION Enalapril could inhibit the renal interstitial fibrosis by affecting TGF-beta1, p-Smad2/3 and Smad7 of TGF-beta/smads pathway in the renal tissues of UUO rats.

Objective To observe DNA damage and morphological changes of lung cells in rats with acute carbonyl nickel poisoning. Methods SD rats were exposed to 20, 135 and 250 mg/m3 carbonyl nickel for 30 min by inhalation. On the third day and 7th day after exposure, DNA damage of lung cells were examined by single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) and the pathological changes in lung tissues and the changes of microstructure in lung cells were observed. Results The DNA damage of the rat lung cells were obviously found in all exposure groups at different exposure times and there was the most obvious DNA damage at 72 hour after exposure to nickel carbonyl but the damage appeared later than chlorine exposure group. The inflammatory infiltration and hyperplasia in lung tissue, bronchiolar damage and the bronchial mucosa defulvium appeared in the rats exposed to carbonyl nickel. The results of microstructure examination indicated that the organelles of type I pneumocytes was swellen, the body of type Ⅱ pneumocytes was emptied. The cytoplasm empty bubbles increased, the mitochondria was swellen, and alveolar mediastinum inside the collagen fiber in alveolar mediastinum increased. Conclusion The acute carbonyl nickel exposure could induce the injury of lung tissues and cells with dose-effect relationship and time-effect relationship.
