Objective To explore the levels of interferon ?(IFN-?) and interleukin-10(IL-10) in sera and in hepatitis B virus(HBV) core antigen(HBcAg) stimulated culture supernatants of peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) from chronic HBV carriers children and their clinical significance.Methods Five milliliter peripheral blood was collected from 21 HBeAg-positive children(group A),20 HBeAg-negative children(group B) and 19 normal controls(group C),sera and PBMC was isolated,after 72 h culture of PBMC with HBcAg or not.The levels of IFN-? and IL-10 in sera and in HBcAg stimulated or not stimulated culture supernatants of PBMC were detected.Results The level of sera IFN-? had no difference between each group;the sera level of IL-10 in group A and B were significantly higher than that of group C.The level of IFN-? in HBcAg stimulated culture supernatants of PBMC from group B and C were higher than that from group A;while IL-10 levels in HBcAg stimulated culture supernatants from group A and B were higher than that from group C.Conclusions The level of IL-10 and the lower reactivity to HBcAg of PBMC play roles in the mechanisms of chronic HBV carriers children.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the instructions of domestic Clindamycin phosphate injection. METHODS:The contents in the instructions of domestic Clindamycin phosphate injection approved the listing from Jan. 2006 to Dec. 2015 were statistically investigated according to Regulation for Drug Package Inserts and Label Management and Regulatory Guidelines for Chemicals and Biologicals,and the items with great differences in different approval number were analyzed comparatively. RE-SULTS:The labeling rate of clinical experiment in the collected 25 instructions of domestic Clindamycin phosphate injection was 0,the labeling rate of validity was 44%,the labeling rate of use for elderly patients was 68%,the labeling rate of overdosage was 76%,and the labeling rate of others was 100%. The items with great differences were mainly special populations,usage and dos-age,adverse reactions,validity,storage conditions and precautions. CONCLUSIONS:There are great differences in instructions of domestic Clindamycin phosphate injection,some items are inaccurate,incomplete and lack of scientificity,which may result in ir-rational drug use in patients and increase the risk of medication. It is suggested that the domestic enterprises should modify and per-fect the contents of the instructions of domestic Clindamycin phosphate injections referring to the instructions of foreign brand name drug;and the drug regulatory department should strengthen the monitoring of drug instructions.

Objective To explore the difference of pathogenesis between chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and asymptomatic hepatitis B virus(HBV) carriers(ASCs) in children.Methods Subtracted libraries was constructed by suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) from peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) of two groups, beta-2-microglobulin (?_2-MG) was screened as one of differentially expressed genes. Serum was collected from children with CHB and ASCs, the differential expression of ?_2-MG was confirmed by enzyme immunoassay.Results Subtractive libraries were constructed successfully, the differentially expression of ?_2-MG and lactroferrin were up-regulated in CHB children.And the differentially expression of ?_2-MG on the level of protein was confirmed.Conclusion The up-regulation of ?_2-MG in CHB children is involved in the pathogenesis mechanisms.

AIM: To investigate the feasibility of transplanting endothelial progenitor cells(EPCs) obtained from spleen in vascular endothelium repairmen after vascular injury.METHODS: EPCs were isolated by using a Ficoll density gradient centrifugation,and were cultured in plate.The endothelial characteristics of EPCs were identified by immunochemical staining and fluorescent labeling.Dil-Ac-LDL labeled spleen-derived EPCs were transplanted into the rats by intravenous injection directly after induction of arterial injury and again 24 hours later.Rats received FITC-labeled lectin intravenously before euthanasia.The distribution of fluorescent labeled EPCs was traced.The morphology of arterial intima and media was studied by optical microscopy and image analysing system.RESULTS: The adherent cells were considered EPCs that showed spindle shape and form blood-siland-like structures during development.The adherent cells had many endothelial characteristics.Fluorescent labeling showed that the intravenously injected EPCs specifically restricted to the vascular injury site,and lectin binding confirmed the endothelial phenotype.The ratio of neointimal/media area in EPCs transplantation group was obviously reduced than that in injury group and M199 group(0.82?0.09 vs 1.52?0.21,1.48?0.19,P

Objective:To observe the diuretic action of Liniao Capsules (LC). Methods: The urinary effects of LC were studied in the loading rats with water.Results: LC could significantly increase the urinary output, shorten the latent period of emiction, and reduce the contents of TP in urine and BUN in blood serum. Conclusion: LC exerted the significant diuretic effect in rats.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect and mechanism of Scutellaria Baicalensis Stem-leaf Total Flavonoid (SSTF) on lipid metabolism in hyperlipidemic rat.

METHODOn the basis of establishing hyperlipidemia rat model, blood lipids, lipid metabolic enzyme, antioxidative capacity were investigated after 30 days feeding of fatty emulsion.

RESULTSSTF significantly reduced the serum TC, TG, LDL-C, ApoB concentration and increased HDL-C and ApoAI levels, improved the activity of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT). SSTF was shown to decreased MDA content in both serum and liver, increased serum SOD activity.

CONCLUSIONSSTF could remarkably modulate the lipid metabolic disorder in hyperlipidemic rats, and has a certain regulating function on lipoprotein, inferring that it could reduce the occuring of atherosclerosis. The mechanism of regulating lipid metabolism might be related with the increasing activity of LCAT and antioxidative capacity.

Objective To investigate the different influences of simvastatin on proliferation of rat smooth muscle progenitor cells(SPCs) versus endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) and identify the compounds that differentially inhibit SPCs and EPCs proliferation for clinical usefulness. Methods Total mononuclear cells (MNCs) were isolated from bone marrow of rats by Fieoll density gradient centrifugation, and then the cells were plated on fibronectin-coated culture dishes. SPCs outgrew from the culture of MNCs in the presence of platelet-derived growth factor-BB and basic fibroblast growth factor, whereas EPCs were obtained in the presence of vascular endothelial growth factor. SPCs were identified as adherent cells positive for α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) by indirect immunofluoreseent staining. EPCs were characterized as adherent cells double positive for DiLDL-uptake and lectin binding by direct fluorescent staining. SPCs and EPCs were stimulated by simvastatin (0.01～10.00 μmol/L) or vehicle control for the respective time points (6 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h). SPCs and EPCs proliferation were assayed with 3H-TdR incorporation and manual counting respectively. Results Simvastatin obviously inhibited SPCs proliferation. At the concentration of 0. 01 μmol/L for 12 h,simvastatin significantly reduced the number of SPCs by (5.8±3.1)% compared with control group (P<0.05). Simvastatin significantly stimulated EPCs proliferation, which was dose- and time dependent and reached maximum at 1 μmol/L after 24 hours (2.0±0.1 fold increase, P<0.01).Conclusions Simvastatin displays different effects on SPCs (inhibited) and EPCs (promoted)proliferation. Local application of simvastatin may inhibit arterial restenosis and promote reendothelialization of injured vessels.

AIM: To evaluate the mobilization of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in mice peripheral blood during hindlimb ischemia alone or in combination with granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF). METHODS: Hindlimb ischemia was established in mice by surgical excision of both femoral arteries. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) was used to detect the expression of cell-surface CD34 and vascular endothelial growth factor recepter-2 (VEGFR2) antigens. The ratio of double-positive cells for CD34 and VEGFR2 was regarded as the level of EPCs in peripheral blood. In G-CSF administration in combination with hindlimb ischemia group, the percentage of double-positive cells was also detected. RESULTS: As compared with control group, hindlimb ischemia increased the percentage of EPCs in mice peripheral blood. The hindlimb ischemia combined with G-CSF administration significantly enhanced the percentage of EPCs. CONCLUSION: Ischemia increases the number of EPC in peripheral blood. It may induce the migration of EPC from barrow to peripheral blood. By mobilizing barrow, G-CSF enhances this effect.
