Coal workers' pneumoconiosis（CWP）is one of the most common occupational diseases. The pathogenesis of CWP remains unclear and effective therapeutic drug is not exist. Therefore，looking for CWP-related biomarkers have become a focus of research. In recent years，intensive studies have been carried out on the pathogenesis of CWP，such as inflammatory response，alveolar epithelial cell injury，extracellular matrix remodeling，epigenetics，oxidative stress and immune dysfunction. It has been found that some biomarkers were related to CWP，such as high mobility group protein 1，nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family protein 3，surfactant protein，mucoprotein 5B，osteopontin，aminin，DNA methylation，microRNA，long noncoding RNA，cytochrome b-245-alpha polypeptide and cluster of differentiation，and others. These biomarkers are helpful for early screening，monitoring efficacy and pathogenesis research of CWP. However，it is necessary to further explore biomarkers with high sensitivity and specificity and conduct prospective clinical value evaluation to better guide the prevention and treatment of CWP .

Objective By researching the auditory brainstem response(ABR) latency and interpeak latency intervals before and after continuous positive airway pressure through the nares(nCPAP), the experiment explored the pathophysiological and anatomical basis of electric physiological change in patients with obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS).Methods The ABR of 45 OSAHS patients(90 ears) and control group(32 ears)was examined,the sleep of patients with OSAHS was monitored by polysomnography(PSG).The results of ABR before and after nCPAP were compared.Results 1.The latency of wave III? V and interpeak latency intervals of I-III,III-V,I-V of patients were longer than that of the control group.2.After nCPAP,wave III and interpeak latency intervals of I-III,III-V changed obviously.Conclusion 1.The OSAHS patients' auditory brainstem structure is impaired,which has relationship with high carbonic acid and low oxygen saturation. 2.Except wave III,produced by upper nucleus olivaris that is near the breathing center,effect of nCPAP on ABR of patients with OSAHS is not obvious.

We performed the transforming nitrate test mainly with penicillium brevi-compactum and other fungi. The strain of P. brevi-compactum and all the other fungi used for this test were isolated from patients with cervix uteri carcinoma, patients with gynopathy but no cancer, and the normal woman controls in Luoyang county of Shaanxi and in Wufeng county of Hubei respectively, which are the highest prevalance areas of cervix uteri carcinoma in China. The detection rate of P. brevicompactum is higher 72.73% (65/77) in Luoyang; 67.65 (23/34) in Wufeng. The detection rate of yeast and Candida is low. Though the detection rate of certain tested fungi such as A. serreus, A. candidus, P. cyelopium and Rhodotorula rubra is higher, these fungi are seldom found in the isolates from cervix uteri. Thus, these fungi might be no important significance in etiology of cervix uteri carcinoma. Because nitriamine is an important carcinogen and the effect of transforming nitrate to nitrite plays a more important role in the synthesis of nitriamine, P. brevi-compactum is the dominant strain of fungi isolated from the patient with cervix uteri carcinoma in this investigation. The higher detection rate of the treated P. brevi-compactum shows that this fungus plays a role in the etiology or incidence of cervis uteri carcinoma. To solve this difficult and complex problem of the role that fungal agent okay in the etiology of carcinoma further studies must be done.

To explore the effects of lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP) on toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) pathway in alveolar macrophages of acute lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in rats. The TNF ?concentration, IL 1? and IL 18 mRNA expression in alveolar macrophages (AM?) from rats challenged with LPS or LPS + LBP or LPS+LBP+multi LBP antibody (mLBPab) were measured with ELISA and semi quantative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT PCR) respectively. The expression of TLR4 was determined with RT PCR and Western blot. The results showed that: the TNF ? concentration ,IL 1?, IL 18 mRNA expressions and TLR4 expression were increased significantly in the AM? stimulated with LPS +LBP compared with single LPS stimulation group. However, mLBPab blocked these effects. It is suggested that LBP could enhance the trans membrane transduction function of LPS via TLR4 in rat AM? and these might be the main reason that LBP could enhance the inflammatory activity of LPS, and LBP antibody could be used to alleviate such morbid conditions such as SIRS, acute lung injury, ARDS, and septic syndrome.

To purify the protein encoding the small capsid protein (SCP) of KSHV and analyze its immunogenicity, the carboxyl terminus of orf65 of Kaposi's sarcoma associated-herpesvirus (KSHV) was expressed in a prokaryotic expression system. The expression of recombinant E. coli containing pQE-80L-orf65 was induced by isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) and the fusion protein was purified by chromatography. The expressed protein and its purified product were identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and showed that 9 kDa was the expected size of the purified orf65 protein. The antiserum was produced in rabbit which was immunized by purified orf65 protein. An ELISA assay was established to analyze the immunogenicity of the purified orf65 protein. The ELISA analysis demonstrated that orf65 protein has strong immune activity, and the immune activity of polyclonal antibody against orf65 was more than 4 fold higher than that in the serum of the non-immunized rabbit. These results demonstrate that purified orf65 protein has very strong immunogenicity and can be used in screening KSHV infection in the general population using ELISA.

Objective To investigate the mechanisms of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in promoting the transplanted islets neovascularization.Methods We performed co-transplantation of allogeneic islet and MSCs into non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice and the lymphocyte chimeric rate was detected by flow cytometry.The MSCs migration,transformation and secretion of cytokines were detected by immunofluorescence.Results In mice of co-combination transplantation of islet with MSCs,donor lymphocytic chimerism in graft was increased.BM-MSCs can migrate to transplanted islet,differentiate into vascular smooth muscle cells,and also secrete vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).Conclusions MSCs can migrate to transplanted islet and promote neovascularization.Also,it enhanced allograft immune tolerance of islet grafts via increasing donor lymphocytic chimerism.

Objective To study the role of pro inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor?(TNF ?),interleukin 1beta(IL 1?),interleukin 6(IL 6) and anti inflammatory cytokines interleukin 4(IL 4),interleukin 10(IL 10),interleukin 13(IL 13) in acute lung injury(ALI). Methods Wistar Rats (200?50g) were randomly divided into the oleic acid(OA) and Lipoplysaccharide(LPS) induced lung injury experimental group and the only OA induced lung injury control group. The LPS(2mg/kg) was injected in rat's tail vein at the 1, 4, 12 and 24 hours after administration of OA(0.2ml/kg, iv). Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT PCR) were used to detecting the expression of TNF ?, IL 1?, IL 6 and IL 4, IL 10, IL 13 mRNA in the lung tissue of rats in two groups. Results The results showed that the peak expression of TNF ? and IL 1? mRNA at one hour after first hit by oleic acid, and IL 6 mRNA at four hours were observed. Others, such as IL 4, IL 10 and IL 13 mRNA, the highest levels in lung tissue at four hours after lung injury induced by oleic acid. Conclusions The results suggested that TNF ? and IL 1? are presenting early phase of ALI, and that IL 6 played its important role in delayed development. The over expression of anti inflammatory cytokines IL 4, IL 10 and IL 13 may be as a promoters rather than protectors in inflammatory amplification.

The SEM specimens of the blood vessels of the gall-bladder in the full term fetus were produced with the methyl methacrylate cast. The specimens were dryed and gilded with EIKO. IB-3. and then observed under scanning electron microscope. The microvessels of the wall of gall-bladder obviously were divided into three layers, namely: serous vessels, muscular vessels and mucous vessels. The serous and muscular vessels are similar to that of the intestinal canal. However the mucous vessels were characterized by subepithelial capillary networks and veins of large calibre in the lamina propria. The capillary networks were connected directly with the venous plexus by the capillaries. There are fewer arterioles passing and branching among the venous plexuses. Each arteriole was connected to capillary networks. The short capillary was seen frequently between the arterioles and the venous plexus, serving as communication between them.
