Objective To explore the association of expression between the longevity gene SIRT1 and the forkhead transcription factor FOXO1 in the beta cell of islet in rat,and provide the basic prevention and cure rationale for the type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods Eleven male SD rats of 18 months old were randomized into two groups:6 in calorie restriction(CR)group and 5 in the control group.After 6 months' breeding,the caudal end of islet was collected.The expression and location of SIRT1,FOXO1 and insulin were detected by immunohistochemistry;sections of pancreas were stained for senescence-associated ?-galactosidase(SA-?-Gal)to identify cell senescence of pancreatic islets.Results SIRT1 and FOXO1 were expressed in both the kytoplasm and nucleus,while insulin and ?-Gal were located in the kytoplasm.Compared with the control group rats,there was higher SIRT1 expression(P0.05)expression was detected in the beta cells of CR group rats.The lower positive rate of FOXO1 located in the nucleus the higher expression of SIRT1 in the rat beta cell of islet.Conclusion Calorie restriction could induce the high expression of SIRT1 in the rat beta cell of islet,and we think SIRT1 may delay the senescence process of rat beta cell through the repression of transcription factor FOXO1;it's beneficial to the prevention and cure for type 2 diabetes mellitus.

C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) is referred to disease which is out of control of complement activation,degradation and deposition,then leads to predominant C3 deposition in glomerular and glomerular injury.The study found that C3b amplification in the circulation and/or glomerular basement membrane were the key factors that cause immune disorders.Combined with clinical and experimental research,this paper mainly discusses the pathogenesis,clinical characteristics,and treatment of the disease.

Objective To explore the characteristics of clinic and epidemiology of neonatal respiratory syncytial virus(RSV) pneumonia in newborn infants.Methods Three hundred and nine neonates(male 196,female 113) who were admitted to children's hospital of Fudan University and identified as having RSV pneumonia from Jan.2004 to Dec.2008 were enrolled.RSV antigen was detected in exfoliated respiratory cells by direct immunofluorescence.All the clinical data were collected and subjects and they were divided into different groups based on path of infection,gestational age and RSV status.Results From case notes over the 5 years,309 eligible neonates with RSV infection were identified.Male term neonates were more likely to acquire infection,as compared to female,1.71.0.The incidence of RSV infection peaked in winter and spring.Compared with community acquired infection group,hospital acquired infection group had more premature infants(23.2% vs 8.7%,P=0.002),lower birth weight[(3 010.8?852.8) g vs(3 153.2?943.4) g,P=0.026],much longer mean length of hospital stay[(19.0?8.0) d vs(12.2?4.5) d,P=0],more expensive cost[(5 646.4?3632.2) RMB vs(4 175.8?2 879.2) RMB,P=0] and later occurrence day[(21.3?8.6) d vs(15.8?6.0) d,P=0].Compared with simple RSV infection group,mixed infection group had more expensive cost[(6 063.1?3 085.4) RMB vs(4 513.2?3 860.8) RMB,P=0.047] and more oxygen use(40.0% vs 25.7%,P=0.006).The clinical characteristics of patients with RSV pneumonia varied.Preterm group compared with term group more frequently exhibited apnea and cyanosis(20.0% vs 0.7%,42.9% vs 22.7%),respectively.Forty-two percent of them had bacterial infection,while 13.3% of them had infection of other part of body.The prognosis of most RSV(99.0%) infections was good.Conclusions RSV was an important cause of respiratory tract infections during the last five years.Clinical characteristics of RSV infections were atypical.Hospital acquired RSV infection was more severe than the community acquired infection in neonates.There are no specific,effective interventions for treating RSV infections,so preventive measures are most important.

The identification and classification of Thermus to Thermales is revie wed. Up to now, the order Thermales is consist of only one family Thermaceae, w h ich includes 4 genera with 14 valid species about 50 strains, and with 4 unvalid spcecies and more than 50 strains unidentified. The morphology, physiology, G+ C mol%, DND hybridization, fatty acid components, 16S rRNA alignment and secondar y structure analyses have been tools for the taxonomy of Thermales.

Objective To investigate the effect of pre- hospital emergency care programs in children with febrile seizures,in order to reduce damage by febrile seizures and obtain the best firstaid effect. Methods 112 cases of children with febrile seizures were treated in pediatric department of our hospital from April 2009 to February 2011.The parents of 75 children patients were given guidance of prehospital emergency care,they were set as the pre-hospital emergency care group.The other 37 cases were set as the non-pre-hospital emergency care group,routine emergency care was given until the medical personnel arrived at the spot.The conditions of aspiration,tongue bite injury,another episode of febrile seizures and brain damage were recorded in two groups of children. Results Only one case of aspiration and three cases of febrile seizures occurred in the pre-hospital emergency care group by misoperation of parents.Non brain damage and tongue bite injury occurred.The incidence rate of improper consequences was 5.3％in the pre-hospital emergency care group,lower than that of the non-pre-hospital emergency care group,51.4％. Conclusions To give pre-hospital emergency care guidance to parents of children patients by mobile phones before the health care workers reach the spot can significantly reduce accidental injury of children,stabilize the emotion of parents,decrease the impact of seizures on children,all the above has a positive effect on follow-up treatment.

ObjectiveTo investigate the role of myocardial calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) in a rat model of high-level spinal cord injury (SCI).MethodsEighteen healthy male SD rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly divided into 2 groups:sham operation group(group S,n ＝6) and SCI group(n ＝ 12).SCI model was induced by dropping a 10 g weight onto spinal cord (C7) in freely vertical falling along the hollow glass tube from 5 cm height.The blood samples were taken 12 and 24 h after SCI in group SCI and 12 h after SCI in group S,and serum activity of creatine kinase(CK) and MB isoenzyme of creatine kinsse(CK-MB) were measured.Then myocardium specimens were obtained for uhrastructure examination and determination of CaSR mRNA and protien expression by fluorescence quantitative RCR and Western blot.Results Serum activities of CK and CK-MB and CaSR mRNA and protein expression were higher in group SCI than in group S.Serum activity of CK and CaSR mRNA expression were higher,and serum activity of CK-MB was lower at 24 h after SCI than that at 12 h after SCI.There was no significantly difference in CaSR protein expression between the two time points in group SCI.The ultrastructure examination showed that myocardial injury was found in group SCI.ConclusionThe expression of CaSR is up-regulated after SCI in rats,which might be the mechanism of myocardial injury after SCI.

ObjectiveTo study the dissecting necessity of lymph node around normal and abnormal hepatic artery in distal gastric cancer undergoing D2 lymphadenectomy.MethodsSixty gastric cancer patients receiving distal D2 lymphadenectomy by the same surgeon between June 2008 to June 2010 at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, First Affiliated Hospital of the Guangxi Medical University were included in this study. The lymph adipose tissue around the anatomically normal and aberrant hepatic artery was carefully dissected, and the lymph nodes sent for recombinant human cytokeratin 20 (CK20) and carcino-embryonicantigen( CEA )micrometastasisimmunohistochemistry.ResultsWiththe micrometastasis immunohistochemistry of CK20 and CEA, we found the metastasise rate of lymph node around the normal hepatic artery was 27％.Patient age, tumor size, Borrmann type, TNM staging were correlated with the lymph node metastase. There were 7 cases with abnormal hepatic artery originating from the superior mesenteric artery. The hepatic artery ran in front of the pancreas in 1 case and behind the pancreas in 6 cases. We found there are no metastases in the lymph adipose tissue surrounding the abnormal artery.ConclusionsCK20,CEA are suitable immunohistochemical targets for estimating the lymph node micrometastasis. In distal gastric cancer age at 60 or older years, tumor larger than 3 cm and Borrmann Ⅲ-Ⅳ type were risk factors for metastasis of lymph nodes around normal hepatic artery, while aberrant hepatic arteries originating from the superior mesenteric artery are much less likely to have positive lymph nodes in D2 lymphadenectomy.
