OBJECTIVE To investigate the variation of in vitro activity,the ?-lactamases,type diversity and the homology of multiple resistances in Acinetobacter isolated.METHODS The multiple resistant Acinetobacter were selected to detect susceptibility test by K-B antimicrobial agents.The resistant rates were analyzed by WHONET 5.4,the isolates ?-lactamases phenotype was detected by three-dimensional test,genomic types were measured by PFGE.The ?-lactamases genotype was determined by PCR assay with specific-primer,and DNA sequencing was also used to analyze resistance-related gene.RESULTS Twenty-eight of 45 strains were OXA producing strains(68.3%),10 strains were IMP producing strains(24.4%),13 strains were TEM producing strains(31.7%),18 strains were CTX-M producing strains(43.9%),6 strains were PER producing strains(14.6%),and 7 strains were AmpC producing strains(17.1%).None produced SHV ?-lactamases.Twenty-four strains were produced 2 or more than 2 kinds of ?-lactamases.CONCLUSIONS The multiple resistance of Acinetobacter can produce kinds of ?-lactamases,but producing ?-lactamases are not the only one mechanism.

BACKGROUND: As indicated by previous researches, aluminium (Al) could affect learning and memory of animals through many approaches in cluding affecting the stable status of intracellular calcium, decreasing protein kinase C(PKC) activity, and affecting the release of glutamic acid(Glu) . The formation of long-term potentiation(LTP) weakens in hip pocampal CA3 region of rats fed by forage containing Al. It could be found that Al would weaken evoked potential(EP) in hippocampal CA3 region and inhibit LTP formation, which might be related with the damaging effect of Al on L-Arg-NO approach through further application of acute Al administration, i.e., AlCl3 is directly injected into hippocampal CA3 region by microinjection.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the damaging effect of Al on learning and memory, and its correlation with cholinergic system and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) system.DESIGN: A completelyrandomized controlled verifying study based on the experimental animals.SETTING: Department of psychology in a university and the medical college of an occupational technology college.MATERIALS: The study was conducted in the Laboratory of Neuro-Electrophysiology, the Faculty of Physiology, Tongji Medical College,Huazhong University of Science and Technology between September 2000 and April 2001. Totally 68 SD rats of ordinary grade in either gender with a body mass between 150 g and 250 g were obtained from the Department of Experimental Animals of Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and echnology.INTERVENTIONS: SD rats were randomly divided into 9 groups including normal NS ( NS ) control group ( n = 6): 1 μL of NS was injected twice ( 1 minute interval) into hippocampal CA3 region by microinjection; NS + AlCl3 group( n = 6): 1 μL of NS and 0.5 mol/L of AlCl3 were injected(1 minute interval) into hippocampal CA3 region by microinjection;NS + Tac group( n = 6): 1 μLof NS and 1 × 10-9 mol/L of Tacrine were injected in turn into hippocampal CA3 region by microinjection; NS + Bic group(n=6): 1 μL of NS and 1 × 10-3 mol/L of Bicuculline were injected in turn into hippocampal CA3 region by microinjection; Tac +AlCl3 group: 1 μL of 1 × 10-9 mol/L( n =8),1 × 10-10 mol/L ( n = 6) and 1 × 10-8 mol/L of Tacrine were firsdy injected into hippocampal CA3 region by microinjection, and 1 μL of 0. 5 mol/L AlCl3was injected 1 minute later; Bic + AlCl3 group: 1 μL of 1 × 10-3 mol/L( n = 9) and 1 × 10 -4 mol/L( n = 7) of Bicuculline were firstly injected into hippocampal CA3 region by microinjection, and 1 μL of 0.5 mol/L AlCl3 was injected 1 minute later. Population spike(PS) in hippocampal CA3 region was recorded after using single pulse to stimulate perforating fiber(PF). When PS became stable, medication was injected into hippocampal CA3 region to observe the impacts of Al on EP in hippocampal CA3 region and the impacts of some central transmitters on the effect of Al in in hibiting PS.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: PS evoked in hippocampal CA3 region;the impacts of Al on EP in CA3 region and the impacts of some central transmitters on the effect of Al in inhibiting PS. RESULTS: ① After the application of 0.5 mol/L of AlCl3 in hippocampalCA3 region by microinjection, the recorded amplitude of PS reduced to peakat 1 minute, which accounted for(33.8 ± 11. 0) % of the level beforemedication( n = 6). The inhibitive effect of AlCl3 lasted for 120 minutes. ② After the pre-application of 1 × 10-9 mol/L of Tacrine(cholinesterase in hibitor) into CA3 region by microinjection and the application of AlCl3 at oneminute later, it was found that Tacrine antagonized the inhibitive effects ofAlCl3 on PS within 1 to 30 minutes( n = 8) . Its antagonism would extend to60 minutes if 1 × 10-8 mol/L of Tacrine was administrated( n = 6) . How ever, the antagonism of 1 × 10-10 mol/L of Tacrine was weaker than that of 1×10-9 mol/L group within 3-5 minutes(n=6) ③ After thepre-application of 1 × 10-3 mol/L of Bicuculline into CA3 region by mi croinjection and the application of AlCl3 at one minute later, Bicucullinecould partially weaken the effects of AlCl3 within 1 to 20 minutes( n = 9). CONCLUSION: Al of certain concentration can inhibit the evoked PS am plitude in hippocampal CA3 region; Tacrine can antagonize Al' s effects andits antagonism might be related with dose. Hence, the inhibitive effects of Almight be related with the damage in Ach transmitter system. The applicationof Bicuculline, a GABAA inhibitor, also can weaken the PS inhibitive effectsof Al, which indicates that the inhibitive effect of Al also might be effective through GABA approach.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and effects of thrombolytic and anti coagulation treatment in over 70 year old patients with pulmonary thromb embolism(PTE). Methods The clinical findings, diagnostic techniques, effects of thrombolytic therapy and anti coagulation in 58 over 70 year old patients with PTE were analyzed retrospectively. Results Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in lower limbs (74 1%) was the most common thrombolism prone factors in our study. Limitation of movement and long term stay in bed due to a variety of causes were in the next place. The clinical findings were atypical, associated with a false diagnostic ratio of 46 5% in elderly patients with PTE. Undefined causal and different degree of dyspnea along with sudden and persistent hypoxemia were the main characteristics. Spiral CT and radioactive nuclear ventilation perfusion scan were important methods for diagnosis of PTE with positive finding of 95 7% and 62 5%, respectively. The effective and cure rate of thrombolytic therapy combined with anti coagulation, anti coagulation and anti platelet therapy was 91 3%, 75 8%, 0 and 47 8%, 17 2%, 0, respectively. Conclusions The most common risk factors of PTE in the elderly was DVT and the long term stay in bed or stay without active moving. The clinical symptoms were not only atypical but also variable. Thrombolytic with anti coagulation therapy is safe and effective, but anti platelet coagulation alone is not benefit.

Objective To investigate the developmental characters of neural stem cells(NSCs) in occipital of cortex from human fetal brain at different age.Methods Ninety cases of embryoes at gestational age 16-32 weeks and by induction of labor with water bag were collected for determining distribution,shapes,growth modes and the number of NSCs in the occipital of cortex with immunohisto- chemical method under light microscope.Results It was noted that NSCs existed in the occipital of cortex from human fetal brain at different ages.NSCs mainly distributed in layers of cone cells and inner granule cells.NSCs existed in the occipital of cortex of different fetal age included middling round cells,NSCs had enations from 0 to 1.Nucli were larger than plasm.Each NSC had nucleoli from 2-4 and rarefaction chromatin.Most of NSCs distributed in three growth modes including crowd,cluster and clone,occasionally with a single growth mode among other nerve cells.There were no differences including distribution,shapes,growth modes and the number of NSCs in the occipital of cortex between groups,but,NSCs gradually decreased with increasing of age.Conclusion NSCs exists in the occipital of cortex from different gestational age,and the number of NSCs decreases with increasing of age.

Background Studies show that retinal neurodegeneration may precede retinal microvascular changes in diabetes mellitus.The apoptosis of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) is an early finding in retinal neurodegeneration.Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is proved to be up-regulated in diabetic rats retina.However,the impact of TLR4 on RGCs damage in retinal neurodegeneration is poorly understood.Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the expressing change of TLR4 induced by high glucose in RGCs in order to offer a basis for the prevention diabetic retinal neurodegeneration and the study on targeting drugs.Methods RGCs were isolated and purified from the retinas of SPF SD rats aged postnatal 1-3 days by using papain digestion method and then were identified by immunofluorescence technology to detect the expression of Brn3a,a specific marker of RGCs.The cells were divided into normal control group and 10,20,30 mmol/L glucose groups.The expressions of TLR4 mRNA and protein in the ceils were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western blot analysis in 24 and 48 hours after addtion of glucose.All procedures performed in studies were in accordance with the Association for National Institutes of Health (NIH) Statement for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals recommendations.The protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University.Every effort was made to minimize animal discomfort and stress.Results The normal cells grew well with the shape of near roundness after inoculaton.The cells were gradually enlarged and clustered with obvious axons and dendrites 24 hours after purifying.Brn3a showed the positive expression in cultured cells.At 24 hours and 48 hours after glucose culture,the cell structures were gradually invisible in most cells.The expressions of TLR4 mRNA in the cells were 0.945 ±0.237,1.180±0.193 and 0.827±0.213 at 24 hours and 1.509±0.422,2.433±0.617 and 1.435±0.410 at 48 hours after culture in the 10,20 and 30 mmol/L glucose groups,respectively,which were significantly higher than 0.600±0.099 and 0.724±0.302 in the normal control group (all at P＜0.01).The expressions of TLR4 protein in the cells were 0.442±0.147,0.626±0.128 and 0.330±0.153 at 24 hours and 0.464±0.121,0.930±0.441 and 0.394±0.158 at 48 hours after culture in the 10,20 and 30 mmol/L glucose groups,respectively,which were significantly higher than 0.090±0.050 and 0.094±0.070 in the normal control group (all at P＜0.01).Conclusions A large number of RGCs die in a high-glucose environment in vitro,meanwhile,the expression of TLR4 up-regulates in the cells,indicating that TLR4 maybe participate in the damage of RGCs induced by high glucose.
