Objective To study some risk factors of acquired nosocomial pneumonia in tumor case nosocomial infection.Methods 77 tumor case with nosocomial infection were chosen as cases from the patients in hospital for 1:1 case control study.Results It was found that the fatality rate of acquired NP in tumor pattens was 14 3%.Some risk factors of acquired nosocomial infection in tumor case remained significant through logistic regression analysis showed,such as state of an immunosuppression therapy; operation,hospitalization duration,antibiotics application time and mechanical ventilation.Conclusions It was suggested that the iatrogenic pneumonia is comes from multiple risk factors and it should be paid attention. This is the most important step to control nosocomial infection of tumor case in the hospital happen.

Objective To study the effects of UVR or H2O2 on the expression of p53 in human melanocytes,and that of nutlin-3 and PFT-α on the DNA oxidative damage,and to investigate the role of p53 in the antioxidative stress.Methods The effect of UVR,H2O2,nutlin-3 and PFT-α on the expression of p53 of human melanocytes was detected by Western blot analysis,and that of nutlin-3 and PFT-α on UVR or H2O2 DNA damage assessed by single cell electrophoresis (comet assay).Determination of the effect of nutlin-3 on H2O2 DNA damage was detected by γ-H2AX immunofluorescence.Results UVR and H2O2 could induce p53 protein expression,accompanied by increased phosphorylation of p53 on serine 15 residue,and nutlin-3 and PFT-α could induce and inhibit p53 protein in human melanocytes respectively; nutlin-3 decreased the tail moment of DNA oxidative damage of UVR or H2O2 in human melanocytes,but PFT-α increased the tail moment of DNA oxidative damage of UVR or H2O2 in human melanocytes,and there were significant differences among the control and exposed groups; nutlin-3 decreased expression of γ-H2AX.Conclusions p53 plays a very important role in the antioxidative stress in melanocyte exposed to UV or H2O2.

Objective To study the relationship between urinary laminin(LN) and diabetic nephropathy.Methods Using the method for concentrating urinary laminin based on precipitation with PEG-4 000 and γ-globulin.The concentration of LN in the urine of 83 diabetics was measured by RIA.The concentration of micro-albumin and Ccr in the urine and the levels of plasma glucose and HbA1c were also measured.Results The choice of 150g/L of PEG-4 000 and 0.5 g/L of γ-globulin was the best method for concentrating urinary LN.The urinary LN in all groups was significantly higher than that in control group.Conclusion Urinary LN is an indicator in the diagnosis of the early diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To estimate the effect of a cis-imidazoline derivative,nutlin-3,on the biological behavior of A375 human melanoma cells,and to investigate its mechanism.Methods Cultured A375 cells were divided into several test groups treated with nutlin-3 at different concentrations (2.5,5,10 μmol/L) for 24,48 and 72 hours,and a control group treated with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) only.Then,methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was performed to evaluate cellular proliferative activity,Western blot to measure the expression of p53 protein,flow cytometry to estimate cell cycle phase distribution and apoptosis rate,and Transwell assay to evaluate migratory activity,of A375 cells.Statistical analysis was carried out by repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA).Results After treatment with nutlin-3 of 2.5,5 and 10 μmol/L for 24,48 and 72 hours,significant differences were observed among different time points at each concentration and among different concentrations at the same time point in proliferation inhibition rate (F =67.43,135.58,respectively,both P ＜ 0.01),p53 protein expression level (F =1255.00,9196.00,respectively,both P ＜ 0.01),percentage of cells at G2 phase (F =831.38,267.99,respectively,both P ＜ 0.01),apoptosis rate (F =809.45,723.83,respectively,both P ＜ 0.01),migration inhibition rate (F =1100.00,1667.00,respectively,both P ＜ 0.01).The influence of nutlin-3 on cellular proliferative activity increased with the increase in its concentration,and that on percentage of cells at G2 phase,apoptosis rate and migratory activity increased with the increase in its concentration and treatment duration.There was a significant interaction between the treatment duration and concentration of nutlin-3 for p53 protein expression level in (F =826.79,P ＜ 0.01),percentage of cells at G2 phase in (F =21.602,P ＜ 0.01),apoptosis rate in (F =44.48,P ＜ 0.01),migratory activity of (F =313.09,P ＜ 0.01),and cellular proliferative activity of (F =26.95,P ＜ 0.01),A375 cells.Conclusion Nutlin-3 may inhibit the proliferation and migration of,but promote cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in,A375 cells,through accumulation of p53 protein.

Objective To explore the changes and significance of serum tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?),interleukin-1?(IL-1?),IL-6 and IL-10 in rats with acute necrotizing pancreatitis(ANP).Methods Sixty-four Wistar rats were randomly divided into 2 groups: sham operation group(SO group n=32) and ANP group(n=32).The ANP model was established by using retrograde injection of Sodium Taurocholate into cholangiopancreatic duct.The changes of serum endotoxin(ET),TNF-?,IL-1?,IL-6 and IL-10 in different groups and different time points were observed.Results The levels of serum ET,TNF-?,IL-1?,IL-6 and IL-10(except IL10 of ANP group in 16h) in rats of ANP group were significantly higher than those of SO group(P

Objective To investigate the effects of angiotensin1-7 (Ang1-7) on renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis of diabetic rats.Methods Thirty-two male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups: normal control group,diabetic group,telmisartan group,Ang1-7-treated group.For 9 weeks after diabetes mellitus model established,24 h proteinuria,urine NAG/Cr,glucose,insulin,TG,TC,BUN,Scr,Na+ and K+ were assessed.Renal pathological changes were evaluated by PAS staining; Expression of TGF-β1,PPARγ and α-SMA mRNA was deteeted by real-time PCR; Protein levels of PPARγ,α-SMA and TGF-β1 were detected by Western blotting.Results (1)At the end of the ninth week,the blood pressure,proteinuria,renal weight/body weight in group DM were significantly higher than those in group NC (P＜0.05).(2)Renal interstitial fibrosis in group DM was obviously severe as compared to group NC (P＜0.05),but was improved in group TM and group T(P＜0.05).(3)TGF-β1 and α-SMA mRNA in group DM were significantly increased,and PPARγ mRNA was significantly decreased.Compared with group DM,TGF-β1 and α-SMA mRNA were significantly decreased,and PPARγ mRNA was significantly increased in group TM and group T,especially in group T.(4)TGF-β1 and α-SMA in group DM were significantly increased,and PPARγ decreased significantly.Compared with group DM,TGF-β1 and α-SMA decreased significantly,PPARγ increased significantly in group TM and group T,especially in group T.Conclusion Ang1-7 inhibits high glucose-induced α-SMA expression in vivo through up-regulating the PPAR expression and may inhibit renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis of diabetic rats.
