Objective To investigate whether hepatocyte growth factor ( HGF ) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF1) induce cardiac stem cells (CSCs) to proliferate and directly differentiate into cardiomyocytes in vitro.Methods The myocardial tissues were dissected for primary culture of CSCs with the method of explants .The expressions of c-kit and CD34 were examined with immunofluorescence .Primary cells were purified with c-kit by flow cytometry.CFDA SE fluorescent probe was used to detect the proliferation of c-kit+CSCs.C-kit +CSCs were divided into two groups , and cardiac stem cells group and co-cultured with cardiomyocytes group , both group were cultured with HGF and IGF 1.An inverted microscope was used to observe changes in cell number and morphology in different periods .Living cells workstation was used to observe CFDA SE fluorescence intensity , to acquire images and do statistical analysis .Immunofluorescence technique was used to detect the expression of Nkx 2.5 and cardiac troponin T .Results In cardiac stem cells group ,CSCs had no obvious changes in cell number .In co-cultured with cardiomyocytes group , CSCs proliferated and had changes in morphology .Nkx2.5 and cTnT were positively expressed . Several CSCs differentiated into beating cardiomyocytes . Conclusion In co-cultured with cardiomyocytes condition , HGF and IGF1 may promote CSCs to proliferate and differentiate into beating cardiomyocytes .

AIM: To study the changes of bacterial ultrastructure, membrance potential and membrance patency of Escherichia coli during the postantibiotic effect after exposure to gatifloxacin and ciprofloxacin in order to investigate the mechanisms of PAE. METHODS: During the Postantibiotic effect after exposure to gatifloxacin and ciprofloxacin, the aliquots were taken from the bacterial culture at regular intervals. Then the fluorescence microscope was used to observe changes in bacterial ultrastructure and at the same time we studied the changes of membrance potential and membrance patency in Escherichia coli during the postantibiotic effect by flow cytometry in conjunction with fluorescent probes. RESULTS: The PAE phase characterized by filament formation after exposure to gatifloxacin by fluorescence microscopy,yet no significant changes in membrance potential and membrance patency of Escherichia coli were observed. CONCLUSION: Gatifloxacin and ciprofloxacin can induce filamentation, and this change is indifferent with membrance potential and membrance patency of Escherichia coli.

Objective To investigate the current state of nurse leaders′leadership and nurse physician cooperation, to explore the relationship between them, and to provide reference for improving nurse physician cooperation situation. Methods Totally 193 nurse leaders were recruited who were participated in Anhui nursing management training courses. A series of questionnaires were used to collect data, including general information, competency inventory for registered nurse, nurse physician cooperation scale. Results One hundred and eighty- two questionnaires were valid. The score of nurse managers′leadership was (27.85±6.27) points,while the score of nurse physician cooperation scale was (68.31±11.67) points. Hierarchical regression analysis showed that the control of general information, leadership for the interpretation of the nurse physician cooperation level increased by 27.3% (△R2 = 0.273, P = 0.000). Conclusions Hospital managers can adopt effective strategies to raise the level of nurses' leadership, which further increases the nurse physician cooperation level.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of ultrafiltration extract from Angelica Sinensis Radix and Hedysari Radix on PC12 cell apoptosis induced by H2O2; To discuss its mechanism of action.Methods H2O2 was used in the incubation of PC12 cells to establish the oxidative damage nerve cell apoptosis model. The experiment was divided into normal control group, model group, and three different dosages (0.375, 0.75, 1.5 g/L) of ultra-filtration extracted from Angelica Sinensis Radix and Hedysari Radix after modeling for interference. Rate of cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry; mitochondrial membrane potential was measured by laser scanning confocal microscopy; the protein expressions of cleaved Caspase-3, Bax and Bcl-2 were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with the model group, rates of cell apoptosis in the different dosage groups decreased significantly; membrane potential of mitochondria increased; the protein expressions of cleaved Caspase-3 and Bax decreased; the expression of Bcl-2 increased; the ratio of Bcl-2 and Bax increased (P<0.05).Conclusion The ultra-filtration extracted from Angelica Sinensis Radix and Hedysari Radix can inhibit PC12 cell apoptosis induced by H2O2.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of growth, accumulation of indole alkaloid, and the optical concentration of the nutrition components in the Catharanthus roseus mutant cells induced by the colchicine, looking forward to getting the ideal material producing alkaloids which was suited for industrialized cell cultivation. Methods Mutant cells cultivated on the MS medium were harvested according to experiment designs,and the fresh weight was got.The indole alkaloid as extracted by organic solvent. The ajmalicine and catharanthine extracted from the samples were analyzed by RP-HPLC. Results The growth rate was faster and the indole alkaloid accumulation was more when the mutant cells were cultivated generations 30 and the both were sharply decreased at generations 45, while the contents of medical compounds amounted to the peak at the generations 20. The content of medical components and alkaloid accumulation were evidently prompted by the tryptophan added in the media, especially at the concentration of Ca2+ 1 760 and Zn2+ 12.6 mg/L, respectively. Conclusion C.roseus mutant cells probably is an ideal material for industrialized cell cultivation.
