The volatile oil is the main component in the leaves of Perilla frutescens. According to the main types of monoterpenoids or aromatic compounds, it can be divided into different chemotypes and the main chemotypes of Chinese producing Perilla are PA type (mainly containing Perilla aldehyde and limonene), PK type (mainly containing perillaketone) and PP type (subdivided as PP-a type, with apiole as its main component; PP-m type, with myristicin as its main component; PP-e type, with elemicin as main component; PP-as type, with asarone as main component). Based on the biosynthetic pathways analysis, we also found that the formation of the particular chemotype is usually controlled by a single gene or a few genes, and different types have different pharmacological effects. In this paper, the classification under the species P. frutescens, main chemotypes of the volatile oil, and their biogenesis and regulation, pharmacological effect and influence factors are summarized and reviewed.

AIM: To investigate the change of corrected vision and stereo vision in anisometropic patients after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).METHODS: The clinical data of 84 cases of anisometropic children(84 eyes) were retrospective analyzed.The changes of corrected visual acuity and stereopsis of different gender,age,type of amblyopia in children anisometropic before treatment,after treatment for 3,6mo and 1a were analyzed.The stereoscopic vision correction correlation were analyzed.RESULTS: Corrected Log MAR visual acuity and stereopsis of 84 patients after LASIK surgery treatment for 3mo,and 1a later significantly decreased than before treatment (P<0.05).The corrected Log MAR visual acuity and stereopsis of male and female after treatment for 3,6mo and 1a was not statistically significant (P>0.05).Corrected visual acuity of age <30 group for 3,6mo and 1a was significantly lower than the age ≥30 group (P<0.05).After 3,6mo and 1a stereo vision with hyperopic anisometropia amblyopia decreased more than that with myopic anisometropia amblyopia(P<0.05),but corrected Log MAR visual acuity after treatment was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).Improved correctted vision of anisometropic patients after LASIK surgery had no connection with the decrease of stereo vision(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: LASIK surgery can improve visual acuity in patients with anisometropia amblyopia,but the course of treatment of visual acuity and stereopsis affected by age and type of amblyopia.

To introduce the application of CBL teaching method on neuroanatomy teaching in undergraduate of con -tinue education school .Cases selection and reconstruction , designing problems , organization , implementation and standardized teaching were analyzed .Finally, we discussed the advantages and disadvantages of CBL teaching method.

Nutritional supplies & biodiversities of deep-sea microorganisms and correlative methodologies were introduced here in an ecological point of view, and development of their natural products was prospective in an applied point of view.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the antibacterial activity and mechanism of fusidic acid combined with aztreonam on 12 clinical isolates of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA). METHODS: Broth dilution method was used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC) of the fusidic acid and aztreonam combination.The MIC of two drugs combination were measured by the checkerboard method and partial inhibitory concentration index (FIC) was calculated to determine the combined effect.The synergistic effect of two drugs was assessed by the disk diffusion susceptibility test and the time-killing curves.Extracellular enzyme activity assay was used to detect the strains extracellular enzyme activity changes of fusidic acid alone and combined with aztreonam. The probable mechanism of the combined use of two drugs was discussed. RESULTS: Fusidic acid and aztreonam combination displayed synergistic and additive activity on 61.54% and 38.46% isolates, no antagonism activity was observed.The bacteriostasis circle was obviously increased in two drugs combination, of which 41.67% of the strains were changed from drug resistance to sensitive. The time-killing curves showed that the combined of two drugs had bactericidal effect on the isolate PA 320.Extracellular aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity were all increased in a significant difference with the combination of two drugs. CONCLUSION: Fusidic acid combined with aztreonam on CRPA is showed synergistic and additive activity in vitro. The mechanism of two drugs in combination may concern with aztreonam help the fusidic acid to overcome the natural hydrophobic antibiotic permeability barriers of gram-negative bacteria.

Objective To analyze the complete genome sequence of Guangxi HEV isolate swGX32 and to compare it with other HEV isolates. Methods The overlapping fragments of HEV isolate swGX32 were amplified with reverse-transcription nested polymerase chain reaction (RT-nPCR),and the 5′ and 3′ ends of viral genome were amplified with rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). The PCR products were cloned and sequenced. The sequence and phylogenetic analysis of swGX32 was performed. Results The genome of swGX32 consisted of 7240 nt excluding the polyA tail, with 4 nt overlapping between ORF1 and ORF2. ORF3 is contained in the sequence of ORF2. The complete genome sequence of swGX32 shared identity of 73%-74%, 73%, 74%-75%,83%-94% with HEV genotype 1,2,3 and 4, respectively. Among all these HEV reference sequences, swGX32 showed the highest identity with the human isolate JKO-ChiSai98C (94%). Phylogenetic tree showed that swGX32 belonged to genotype 4 and clustered with JKO-ChiSai98C in the branch of HEV subtype 4a. Conclusion The swine HEV isolate swGX32 is closely related to human strain JKO-ChiSai98C genetically and phylogenetically, which further provides molecular biology evidence of hepatitis E as a zoonosis.

Objective To study the effects of nitric oxide synthase(NOS) and nitric oxide(NO) in post-asphyxial renal injury in neonatal rats.Methods Forty-eight Wistar neonatal rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:controls,2 h,24 h and 48 h post-asphyxia groups (12 in each group).The rats were decapitated in different times(2 h,24 h and 48 h) after asphyxia for 30 minutes.The renals were dissected to determined the concentrations of NO and NOS.And the scores of renal tubules were measured under light microscope.Results Compared with control group,the levels of NO and NOS significantly increased at 2 h and 24 h after asphyxia.The scores of renal tubules were significant difference at 24 h and 48 h after asphyxia compared to controls.Conclusion These findings suggest NOS and NO may play an important role in the development of post-asphyxia renal injury.

Objective To analyze the CT findings of tuberculous lymphadenitis in parotid gland, so as to improve the diagnostic accuracy of tuberculosis of parotid gland. Methods Nine cases with tuberculous lymphadenitis in parotid gland confirmed by surgical pathology and acid-fast bacilli after preoperative spiral CT plain scan and two phases dynamic enhancement scan were retrospectively analyzed.Imaging findings of CT were reviewed and compared with surgical pathology. Results Seven of the 9 cases of tuberculosis of the parotid gland occurred in the left side, and 2 in the right side, and superficial lobe involvement occurred in 8 cases and deep lobe in 1 ease. The lesion was classified as tumour type (8 cases)and infiltration type (1 case). In tumour type, the number of lesion was from 1 to 4, and the size was from 2.7 to 5.3 cm in diameter. One case of infiltration type measured 3.4 cm in diameter. On CT plain scan,the lesions showed homogeneous slight high-density with regular edge in 5 cases and irregular low-density in 4 cases, and 2 of them with partly blurred edge. On CT enhanced scan, uniform moderate enhancement was seen in 3 cases, circular enhancement in 4 cases, inhomogeneous enhancement in 1 case, and lace-like enhancement in 1 case. Local infiltration occurred in 6 cases. Lymphadenovarix in the same side of lesion occurred in 2 cases. Conclusion CT findings of tuberculous lymphadenitis in parotid gland present diversification, which correlate well with pathological changes. Understanding of characteristic CT findings of tuberculous lymphadenitis in parotid gland is helpful for differential diagnosis, but final diagnosis still depends on pathology and acid-fast baeilli.
