Objective:To observe the inhibitory effect of disodium cantharidinate on human hepatoma cell line HepG2 and investi-gate its possible mechanisms. Methods:HepG2 cells were treated with different concentration of disodium cantharidinate,The in- hibiton of cell proliferation,cell cycle distribution,expression of Survivin and activity of Caspase-3 were respectively evaluated by MTT assay,flow cytometry,immunocytochemistry,and chromatometry. Results:Disodium cantharidinate could inhibit the proliferation of HepG2 cells. The IC50 at 24,48,72 h after intervention were 2.41?0.48,0.72?0.08,and 0.39?0.04 ug/ml,The cells of G2/M phase and activity of Caspase-3 were increased.the expression respectively of Survivin were inhibited after the intervention of disodium cantharidinate. Conclusion:The inhibitory effect of disodium cantharidinate on HepG2 cells may be mediated by the block of cellcycle,enhancement of Caspase-3,and inhibition of Survivin.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Yang Xin Huo Xue(nourishing the heart and activating blood flow) needling method plus Western medication in treating chronic heart failure due to coronary heart disease (CHD).Method Eighty patients with CHD-induced chronic heart failure were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, to respectively receiveYang Xin Huo Xueneedling method plus Western medicationor Western medication alone for intervention. The heart function was estimated and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) was detected before and after the intervention in both groups, and the change of heart function was observed.Result Yang Xin Huo Xueneedling method plus Western medication achieved a satisfactory therapeutic efficacy in treating chronic heart failure, and its total effective rate was significantly different from the rate in the control group (P<0.05); compared with the control group, the BNP value declined more significantly in the treatment group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion Yang Xin Huo Xueneedling method plus Western medication can produce a satisfactory efficacy in treating CHD-induced chronicheart failure.

A L-serine producing facuhative methylotroph mutant (Mth~H、Gly~R)was derived from Pseudomonas flava A3 by combination treatment with ultraviolet(UV)and diethylsulfate(DES).It could accumulate 6.2g/L L-serine in the medium containing 30g/L glycine and 1% methanol as carbon source when it was cultured for 3 days,and it has an improvement about 67.6% compared with the origin.The mutant also has a good stability of descendiblity of L-serine producing.

Exploring the functional network during the interaction between emotion and cognition is an important way to reveal the underlying neural connections in the brain. Sparse Bayesian network (SBN) has been used to analyze causal characteristics of brain regions and has gradually been applied to the research of brain network. In this study, we got theta band and alpha band from emotion electroencephalogram (EEG) of 22 subjects, constructed effective networks of different arousal, and analyzed measurements of complex network including degree, average clustering coefficient and characteristic path length. We found that: (1) compared with EEG signal of low arousal, left middle temporal extensively interacted with other regions in high arousal, while right superior frontal interacted less; (2) average clustering coefficient was higher in high arousal and characteristic path length was shorter in low arousal.

Objective To identify the risk factors resulting in arrhythmias after transcather closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defects in patients under 18 years old so as to decrease the incidence of arrhythmias after the interventional catheterization.Methods The types and risk factors of arrhythmias were analysed in 89 cases who underwent transcather closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defect from Jun. 2002 to Jun. 2004. Results Total procedures were attempted in 89 cases successfully. 11cases were developed various kinds of block conduct. The up margin of defects to the aortic valve

Objective To study the effect of caveolin-1 on renal injury and the expression of tight junction proteins in MRL/lpr mice kidney.Methods The mice were divided into 4 groups:5 mice in the normal control group (BALB/c mice);the MRL/lpr lupus mice (n=18) were randomly divided into the MRL/lpr group in which 6 mice were included;the negative control group in which 6 mice were included;the caveolin1 transfection group in which 6 mice were included.The changes of urine protein,the levels of urea (BUN) and creatinine (Cr) were detected.The expressions of claudin-5,occludin,ZO-1 and caveolin-1 protein were determined by western bloting.Analysis of variance was used to determine statistical significant differences between the two groups.A significance level of 0.05 was considered as signigicant.Results Compared with the control group,24 h urine protein [(2 894±437) mg,(412±72) mg],BUN [(8.7±1.5) mmol/L,(6.9±0.4) mmol/L],Cr [(106±22) μmol/L,(85±4) μmol/L] were significantly increased,level of caveolin-1 protein increased (265±17,61±6),the level of occludin (114±12,190±12),claudin-5 (60±5,80±6) and ZO-1 (98±11,206±15) protein decreased in the MRL/lpr group (P＜0.05).After caveolin-1 transfection,the levels of urinary protein [(1 253±249) mg,(2 894±437) mg],BUN [(6.5±1.3) mmol/L,(8.7±1.5) mmol/L],Cr [(78±17) μmol/L,(106±22)μmol/L] were significantly decreased,and the levels of occludin (218±16,114±12),claudin-5 (87±6,60±5)ZO-1 (313±17,98±11) were increased (P＜0.05).Conclusion The expression of caveolin-1 protein in the renal tissues of lupus nephritis increases.Caveolin-1 can reduce the expression of tight junction proteins and contribute to progres-sion of lupus nephritis.

Objective To understand the clinical characteristics of lower respiratory tract infection,pathogenic distribution and drug resistance in intensive care unit to provide a basis for reasonable use of antibiotics. Methods From January 2008 to August 2010,the clinical data from our hospital ICU impatients of lower respiratory tract infection were retrospectively analyzed. The isolated strains were identified, the antibiotic susceptibility test was performed by K-B methods and the results were read according to CLSI 2007. Results There were 509 patients, 147 cases of lower respiratory tract infection were found. Lower respiratory tract infection rate was 28.9% (147/509); 283 strains of pathogens had been isolated by culture and most of which were Gram negative bacilli(86. 9%), the other pathogens included Gram positive cocci(7.4%) and fungi(5.7%). The most common pathogens were Acinetobacter spp, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae,Stenotrophomonas oligotrophic aeromons, Fungi, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Burkholderia cepacia,etc,accounting for 24. 7% ,20. 5% ,12. 7% ,6. 4% ,5.7% ,5. 3% ,5.3% and 4. 6% ;The main pathogens were highly resistant to the most antibiotics. Conclusion ICU had a higher lower respiratory tract infection rate, Gram negative bacilli are the main pathogen, and showed the multi-drug resistance features to the antibiotics.

Objective:The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of enteral nutrition on stress response and gut barrier function after surgery for esophageal cancer. Methods: Patients who underwent esophagectomy were divided into two groups. Group PN (28 patients) served as the control group. Group EN (26 patients) received enteral nutrition. Results: The serum total protein, albumin, prealbumin and transferrin decreased after operation, but there were no differences between the two groups. The serum levels of IL-6 were significantly higher on the first and third postoperative days after the operation in two groups (P
