Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)compatibility is related to the safety of clinical use of drugs and embodies the essence of interactions between drugs and organisms. This is a scientific problem thatr has attracted more attention. Currently, most of the knowledge on TCM compatibility is from predecessors′ experience. The corresponding molecular biology mechanism is poorly understood. As a powerful tool to identify a large number of proteins simultaneously,proteomics technology has the potential to reveal the protein alterations under certain conditions,and to provide more direct insights into biological processes during TCM compatibility. In this paper,we introduced the main technology of proteomics,including two dimensional gel electrophoresis,2D-DIGE,iTRAQ, QconCAT/MRM and chemical proteomics. Also,the applications of these technologies in the field of TCMM compatibility study were reviewed.

A poly( GMA-EGDMA) coated SPME fiber was prepared using an in-situ polymerization by direct bonding to the surface of a polydopamine-modified stainless steel wire. Then the fiber was modified by sulfuric acid. A novel solid phase microextraction coating coupled to high performance liquid chromatography ( HPLC) method based on the as-prepared fiber was developed for the determination of four pharmaceuticals and personal care products ( PPCPs) in water samples. The influences of extraction parameters, including pH, extraction time, extraction temperature and salt addition were investigated. 3 mL water sample was extracted by the as-prepared fiber for 60 min at 30 ℃, and then desorbed with mobile phase for 30 min, respectively. Desorption solution was analyzed by HPLC-DAD ( diode array detection ) . The results indicated that the extraction yield of the fiber was good for four PPCPs. The linear correlation coefficients were>0. 997 with the linear range of 2-200 μg/L. The limits of detection (S/N=3) were 0. 5-5 μg/L with RSD (n=5) of 4. 1%-11. 9%. The recoveries of four PPCPs at spiked level of 20, 50, 100 μg/L were within the range of 70. 6%-105. 5%. The results showed that this method was easy, green, accurate and precise, and could be used to assay the four PPCPs in real water samples.

Objective: To investigate the influence of lidocaine on systemic inflammation in the perioperative ventricular septal defect (VSD). Methods: Twenty patients, scheduled for ventricular septal defect were randomly divided into 2 groups: lidocaine and control groups. Before rebeat lidocaine 1 mg/kg was given.The venous blood samples were obtained from the central venous at the following points: after induction of anesthesia and before cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB,T1),1 h after CPB(T2),2 h after CPB(T3), and 4 h after CPB(T4). IL-6 and IL-8 were determined by radio-immunoassay. Results: Compared with those at T1, the levels of white blood cells,polymorphonuclear neutrophils,IL-6 and IL-8 increased significantly from T2 to T4 in both groups. IL-6 and IL-8 levels reached the peak at T2. Compared with those in control groups, IL-6 level decreased obviously in lidocaine group from T2 to T4, but IL-8 level remained unchanged significantly. Conclusion: Under CPB and VSD repair the systemic inflammation is obvious, reaches the peak 30 min after CPB and persists to 4 h after CPB. Perioperative administration of lidocaine is effective against the inflammation.

Objective To investigate the relation between serum adiponectin and coronary artery calcification score (CACS), and find the risk factors for CACS in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods Twenty-nine patients with 3-5 stage CKD were selected. The serum adiponectin was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The heart was scanned by 64-row spiral CT, and the CACS was calculated. The blood calcium, phosphorus, intact parathyroid hormone, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, albumin, urea nitrogen, creatinine, uric acid and high sensitive C reactive protein levels were measured, and the calcium-phosphorus product and estimation glomerular filtration rate were calculated. Results In 29 patients with CKD, 24 cases (83%) had coronary artery calcification with different degree (CACS>0 score), and the average CACS was 508 (0-3 363) scores. There were statistical differences in systolic blood pressure, urea nitrogen and estimation glomerular filtration rate between CKD patients with CACS≥100 scores (15 cases) and CKD patients with CACS<100 scores (14 cases):(146.00± 13.00) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) vs. (123.00±9.00) mmHg, (15.44±8.36) mmol/L vs. (9.71±2.52) mmol/L and (21.77 ±11.81) ml/ (min·1.73 m2) vs. (38.71 ±11.56) ml/ (min·1.73 m2), P<0.01 or <0.05. Pearson correlation analysis results showed that CACS had positive correlation with systolic blood pressure, creatinine and uric acid, and negative correlation with albumin and estimation glomerular filtration rate. Mult-stepwise regression analysis results showed that systolic blood pressure and estimation glomerular filtration rate were the independent risk factors of CACS. Conclusions The patients with 3-5 stage CKD have severe coronary artery calcification. The systolic blood pressure and estimation glomerular filtration rate are the independent risk factors of coronary artery calcification.

Background Acanthamoeba keratitis is a sort of serious infectious eye disease with high causing-blindness rate.Acanthamoeba keratitis often is misdiagnosed as fungal keratitis or viral keratitis in the early stage.Because conventional clinical diagnosis methods show a low specificity and take a long time,timely treatment often is delayed.Conventional PCR does not apply well because the lesion sample is not enough to extract DNA.However,direct PCR can amplify 18S rRNA conserved sequence of acanthamoeba keratitis without the extraction of DNA.Objective This study was to discuss the feasibility for rapid diagnosis of acanthamoeba keratitis using direct PCR to amplify the gene 18S rRNA fragment.Methods Ten acanthamoeba strains were isolated from 10 eyes with acanthamoeba keratitis in Qingdao Eye Hospital.The sensitivity of the direct PCR assay was tested using different numbers of amoebas.The specificity of the assay was tested using DNA extracted from acanthamoeba,candida albicans,pseudomonas aeruginosa,herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) and normal human corneal epithelial cell.Acanthamoeba keratitis models were established using infected method in clean 6-week-old female BALB/c mice.Corneal lesion samples were obtained 1 day,3,5,7,10,15 days after modeled.The effectivity and feasibility of the direct PCR assay for rapid diagnosis of acanthamoeba keratitis were evaluated and compared with culture method,corneal smear examination and real-time PCR.Results Direct PCR primers could only amplify DNA of acanthamoeba rather than other pathogens,and 10 stains of acanthamoeba were detected at least in each sample.During the development of acanthamoeba keratitis in the mice,the diagnosis positive rate of direct PCR was 80.0%,90.0%,80.0%,70.0%,70.0% and 50.0% in 1 day,3,5,7,10,15 days after modeled with the total positive rate 73.3%,which was higher than 31.7% of culture method,56.7% of corneal smear examination and 61.7% of realtime PCR,with a significant difference between the direct PCR and culture method (P =0.005),but no significant difference was seen in the total positive rate between the direct PCR and real-time PC R (P =0.172) or corneal smear examination (P =0.056).Conclusions The direct PCR assay is a simple,rapid,highly specific and sensitive method for the rapid diagnosis of acanthamoeba keratitis,especially for the limited lesion sample.
