The susceptibility to 9 kinds of antibiotics of 393 animal pathogenic E. coli isolated from clinical samples was determined from 2000 to 2003. The resistance to TC, GM, CMP, AMP, RA, KM, FT, SM and CIP were 93.89%, 57.76%,78.63%, 77.86%, 92.11% ,47.33%, 46.82%, 76.84% and 74.81%, respectively. The isolates could be classified into eight classes according to the number of drugs to which srains were resistant. The resistance spectrum of the isolates varied from 2to 9 kinds of the above drugs. The strains that were resistant to seven kinds of drugs were more than 80 percent. The resistance rates of swine origin strains to GM,AMP and KM were higher than those of poultry origin strains, while the resistance rates of poultry origin strains to TC, CMP, SM and CIP were higher remarkably than those of swine origins. The frequency of resistance increased from 2000 to 2003,which was from 67.33% to 90.58% for CMP, 71.29% to 84.81% for AMP, 73.76%to 80.10% for SM and 61.88% to 88.48% for CIP. At the same time, the resistance rate of GM decreased from 61.39% to 53.92%. Thirty-seven strains (95 %) could make all the Kunming mice die within 72 h injected intraperitoneally with the culmice three times in vivo. The pathogenicity of wild strains with drug resistance acquired naturaly to mice did not decline.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of astragalus (As) on calcium accumulation and SERCA2a gene expression in left ventricular tissues in rats with pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy.
METHODcardiac hypertrophy was induced by clipping the abdominal aorta in rats. Male SD rats were allocated to six groups: sham-operrated (Sham), aortic stenosis (Model), model +As-L (5 g x kg(-1) x d(-1)), model+As-M (10 g x kg(-1) x d(-1)), model+As-H (20 g x kg(-1) x d(-1)) and model + captopril (0.05 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1), a positive control). The drugs were administered orally from the 13 th week after surgery. Rats were examined after 12 week treatment with drugs. The cardiac hypertrophy was evaluated by left ventricular mass index (LVMI, left ventricular weight/ body weight). The calcium content in left ventricular tissue was measured by atomic absorption spectrometry. SERCA2a mRNA and protein expressions in left ventricular tissues were determined by half-quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot normalized to abundance of GAPDH mRNA and protein, respectively.
RESULTThe increase of LVMI was dose-dependently lessened by As (P < 0.01, P < 0.001). The effect of As-H was similar to that of Captopril. As markedly attenuated calcium accumulation in myocardial tissure (P < 0.01). RT-PCR and Western blot results demonstrated that SERCA2a gene expressions were downregulated (P < 0.05) significantly in model group compared with sham group. As-H upregulated SERCA2a gene expressions (P < 0.05), whereas Captopril had no effect on that.
CONCLUSIONThe inhibition of As on left ventricular hypertrophy induced by pressure overload in rats may partly contribute to its attenuation of calcium accumulation and up-regulation of SERCA2a gene expressions in left ventricular tissues.

OBJECTIVESTo investigate the impacts of laparoscopic bariatric surgery on fasting glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and Ghrelin level in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and the mechanism in surgical treatment of T2DM.
METHODSFrom March 2010 to August 2011, 44 patients with T2DM underwent laparoscopic bariatric, including laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB, n = 14), laparoscopic mini-gastric bypass (LMGB, n = 11), laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG, n = 9) and laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB, n = 10). The curative effects, changes of metabolism and gastrointestinal hormones were analyzed respectively.
RESULTSWithin 6 months after surgery, the clinical complete remission of T2DM was 11, 8, 6, 3 cases in LRYGB, LMGB, LSG, LAGB group respectively; the clinical partial remission was 3, 3, 2, 4 cases respectively. The inefficacy was 1, 3 patients in LSG and LAGB group respectively. The effects of surgery within 6 months postoperative among 4 groups were different (χ(2) = 8.162, P < 0.05). The levels of body mass index (F = 275.29) and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (F = 40.09) of 4 groups were declined in 6 months postoperatively (P < 0.01). The extents of decrease were no significance among 4 groups. Compared to preoperative level, GLP-1 in LRYGB ((116 ± 33) vs. (66 ± 20) ng/L and LMGB group ((103 ± 22) vs. (65 ± 16) ng/L) was higher in the first month after surgery (F = 21.76 and 139.21, P < 0.05). The changes in LSG and LAGB group were no significance (P > 0.05). The level of Ghrelin in LRYGB, LMGB, LSG group at the first week after surgery were (208 ± 79), (275 ± 102) and (258 ± 91) ng/L respectively, and they were lower than preoperative (there were (398 ± 114), (439 ± 96) and (446 ± 105) ng/L, F = 55.08, 49.96 and 46.47, all P < 0.01). But the level of Ghrelin in LRYGB and LMGB groups rebounded in the first postoperative month. The postoperative level of Ghrelin was higher in LAGB group (F = 29.24, P = 0.001).
CONCLUSIONSThere are difference efficacies and impacts on gastrointestinal hormones among different modes of bariatric surgery. The change of gastrointestinal hormones is plausible mechanism of T2DM remission after surgery.
