Recently the research of vaccines and drugs against anthrax is one of hot spots. The efficacy of anthrax vaccines and drugs can't be experimented in human, therefore the testing model is very important. The cell models mainly include CHO and J774A.1. Now, various kinds of animals including mice, rats, rabbits, and nonhuman primates were experimented as animal models. Because the models are different, the results of experiments are significantly different, sometimes they are contrary. Many experiments of Bacillus anthracis in different cell and animal models are reviewed, and the principles of choosing animal models of anthrax are discussed. In order to analyze the different results of experiments in different models, the pathogenesis of Bacillus anthracis and the researching progress of anthrax vaccines and drugs are also simply introduced .

Objective To investigate the effect of Xuebi-jing injection on the change of the serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD). Methods 86 patients with AECOPD were enrolled in this study, who was randomly divided into a control group (43 cases)and a treatment group (43 cases). Both treatment group and control group were given conventional therapy. On this basis, Xuebi-jing injection was added to the treatment group. Hs-CRP, blood gas analysis, blood cell count and severity of illness score (acute physiological and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ, APACHE Ⅱ) were monitored before and 5 days after treatment. Results There was no obvious difference of hs-CRP levels between two groups before treatment. Hs-CRP was decreased in both groups after the treatment, while the treatment group showed an obvious decrease compared with the control group (t=5.3302,P<0.01). Blood gas analysis, blood cecount, APACHE Ⅱ scores were improved after the treatment in both groups, while the improvement in treatment group showed obvious difference than the control group (t=13.5089、26.3077 、13.4053,P<0.01). Conclusion The conventional therapy plus Xuebi-jing injectiong for AECOPD can improve serum hs-CRP levels and improve the efficacy of AECOPD .
