The morphological and molecular identifications of Cyclospora-like oocysts of dogs were underwent in the present study, in which the morphological characteristics of the Cyclospora-like oocysts firstly found in the stool samples of dogs, such as shape, size, acid-fast staining,sporulation and auto-fluorescene, were observed. According to the published sequence of the rDNA gene of Cyclospora in GenBank, 3 primers were designed and were used to amplify part of the 18S rDNA gene of dog-associated Cyclospora-like organism by nested PCR.The amplicons were purified and cloned into vector pMD19T. Then, the positive clones screened were sequenced and subjected to sequence homology and phylogenetic analysis. It was found that the morphological charactertistics of the Cyclospora-like oocysts in dogs were similar to that of the human Cyclospoa oocysts and the size of-the amplified fragment of 18S rDNA was proved to be 715 bp, that was identical to that of the target fragment. Based on the results of sequence homology and phylogenetic analysis, the dog-associated Cyclospora-like organism was identified as the Cyclospora species.

Objective To study the effect of dimethylaminoethano (DMAE) and compound amino acid injection (AA) by mesotherapy on collagen Ⅰ and collagen Ⅲ mRNA expression levels of D-galactose-induced chemical skin aging rats.Methods 80 rats were randomly divided into individual experimental group.At 18 days after D-gal induction,rats of aging treatment groups were treated with intradermal microinjection of 0.2% DMAE+AA,0.1% DMAE+AA,0.2% DMAE,0.1% DMAE,AA,and saline,respectively,once a week for 4 weeks.At 42 days after treatment,the skin wounds were harvested.HE,PCNA,hydroxyproline and collagen Ⅰ and collagen Ⅲ mRNA expression levels of every group skins were detected.Results Dermal thickness,hydroxyproline content and collagen type Ⅰ and Ⅲ mRNA expression levels of 0.1% DMAE+ AA and 0.2 % DMAE+ AA groups were significantly improved (P<0.05),but PCNA expression of sham control group was significantly higher than all of aging groups (P>0.05).Conclusions Local co-injection of DMAE and compound AA directly into targeted tissue under mesotherapy has marked anti-aging effects on D-galactose induced skin aging model of rat by increasing the dermal thickness,collagen content and acceleration of collagen synthesis.

Objective To investigate the relationships between occupational coping self-efficacy, job stress and core competence of nurses. Methods A total of 493 registered nurses were recruited in the survey with the Chinese nurse job stressors scale, occupational coping self-efficacy scale for nurses and competency inventory for registered nurse (CIRN). The correlations were analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis. Results The total scores on occupational coping self-efficacy, job stress of nurses and core competence of nurses were (31.94 ± 6.39), (90.29 ± 17.41) and (159.93 ± 34.31), respectively. Nurses′occupational coping self-efficacy negatively correlated with (r=-0.267, P<0.01) and positively correlated with the core competence of nurses (r=0.355, P<0.01). Conclusions The occupational coping self-efficacy of the nurses can be improved by successful experiencing, verbal persuasion and positive feedback. In this way, nurses core competence can be enhanced and their job stress can be relieved and consequently the quality of nursing can be enhanced.

Objective To explore the effects of piperine on cell proliferation and migration in angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ)-treated rat airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs).Methods The primary ASMCs of rats were cultured by improved tissue-piece digestion inoculation and trypsin digestion.MTT assay was used to detect the effects of Ang Ⅱ and Ang Ⅱ receptor antagonist losartan on cell proliferation activity.After treatment with Ang Ⅱ and piperine, the cell proliferation activity, the cell cycle distribution and the cell migration were detected by MTT, flow cytometry and Transwell assay respectively.ERK1/2 inhibitor PD98059 and losartan were then applied to determine the expression of cyclin D1, MMP-9, p-ERK1/2, ERK1/2, and β-actin proteins by Western blot assay.Results After 24 h culture, Ang Ⅱ treatment promoted the cell proliferative activity in rat ASMCs (P<0.05), and the promotive effect of 10-7 mol/L Ang Ⅱ was the most significant.Additionally, losartan blocked the Ang Ⅱ-induced cell proliferative activity in rat ASMCs (P<0.05).10-7 mol/L Ang Ⅱ treatment resulted in the elevated cell proliferative activity, higher S phase fraction, increased migrated cell number, and enhanced expression of cyclin D1, MMP-9and p-ERK1/2 proteins (P<0.05);these effects were dose-dependently reversed by piperine.Both PD98059 and losartan blocked Ang Ⅱ-induced expression of p-ERK1/2, cyclin D1 and MMP-9 proteins in rat ASMCs.Conclusions Piperine may inhibit Ang Ⅱ-induced cell proliferation and cell migration via ERK1/2 signaling pathway in rat ASMCs.

Objective To explore the influence of icotinib in the apoptosis of the human salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma cells ACC-M, and to clarify the mechanism of icotinib for the treatment of salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma.Methods The ACC-M cells were randomly divided into control group,2,4,8μmo1·L-1 icotinib groups,p38-MAPK inhibitor SB203580 (20μmol· L-1 )group,SB203580 (20 μmol· L-1 )+4μmo1 · L-1 icotinib group;the cells were collected 4 h after treatment.The viability of ACC-M cells was measured by MTT assay.The apoptosis of ACC-M cells was assessed by caspase-3 activity kit. The expression of p-p38-MAPK protein was determined by Western blotting analysis.Results Compared with control group,the inhibitory rates of growth of the ACC-M cells in icotinib groups were significantly decreased (P<0.05 ), and the activities of caspase-3 were increased (P<0.05),and the expression levels of p-p38-MAPK were significantly increased (P<0.05).Compared with 4μmo1·L-1 icotinib group,the expression level of p-p38-MAPK in SB203580+icotinib group were decreased (P < 0.05 ), and the activity of caspase-3 was decreased dramatically (P < 0.05 ). Conclusion Icotinib may induce the apoptosis of ACC-M cells through the activation of p38-MAPK signaling pathway.
