AIM: To study the effect of genistein on c-myc mRNA expression induced by oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) in human vascular endothelial cells (ECV304). METHODS: LDL were isolated from healthy human plasma by gradient ultracentrifugation and oxidized by CuSO4. ECV304 cells were exposed to ox-LDL 200 mg*L-1 in the presence or absence of genistein 100 μmol*L-1 for 1, 2, and 4 h in vitro. Northern blot was employed to measure c-myc mRNA levels of ECV304. RESULTS: In response to ox-LDL 200 mg*L-1, c-myc mRNA expression in ECV304 increased by 3 fold for 1h and 3.3 fold for 2 h and decreased below the control level at 4 h. Expressions of c-myc stimulated by ox-LDL in the presence of genistein 100 μmol*L-1 for 1 h and 2 h were separately 80 percent and 60 percent of that in the absence of genistein 100 μmol*L-1. CONCLUSION: Genistein can effectively inhibit c-myc mRNA expression in ECV304 induced by ox-LDL.

Human rhinoviruses (HRVs) are the causative pathogens in more than half of viral upper respiratory tract infections. Currently, no antiviral agents that are active against HRVs are available for clinical use. Because only higher primates are susceptible to HRVs, the screening of new drug is most commonly based on the cell line model. In this study, isolated rabbit airway smooth muscles (ASM) tissue model has been established, and the airway responsiveness with different treatment has been examined. Relative to control tissues, the maximal constrictor (Tmax) response to ACh increased significantly 150% in ASM inoculated with HRV, and relaxation to isoproterenol has been attenuated to 63%. And the abnormal responsiveness can be inhibited in presence of pretreatment with several new compounds which have been exhibited effective anti-HRV activity on cell lines. The results demonstrate that the established ASM model will be applied to screening the anti-HRVs drugs.

Objective To summarize the measures for nursing mechanical ventilated patients who suffered from respiratory failure caused by acute severe organophosphorus pesticide poisoning (ASOPP). Method Retrospectively, the nursing clinical data of 18 mechanically ventilated patients who suffered from ASOPP-induced respiratory failure in ICU from January 2013 to December 2014 were analyzed for summarizing the nursing measures concerning preventive extubation, airway humidification and sputum sucking, prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia and final extubation. Result Sixteen ASOPP patients successfully recovered after hospital discharge and another two died from multiple organ function failure because of excessive pesticides. Conclusions Effective observation and nursing care of airways based on their characteristics in ASOPP patients including prevention of unexpected shedding , appropriate humidity of airways and prevention of infection of ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP). All of these measures can reduce complications and contribute to the early recovery of patients.

Objective:To study on effect of Jiantai Liquid on progesterone receptor(PR)in the uterus at the nidation stage in the mouse with disturbance of blastocyst nidation.Methods:The gestational mice were randomly divided into a normal group,a model group and a Chinese drug group.Mifepristone was used for inducing disturbance of blastocyst nidation in the mice,which were interfered with Jiantai Liquid.At the eighth week of pregnancy,the mice were killed and morphological changes of the endometrium were observed,and PR expression in the uterus was detected with immunohistochemical method and PR and PRmRNA expressions were detected with Western blot and PT-PCR methods.Results:The endometrium showed maldevelopment in the model group and normal development in the Chinese drug group,similar to the normal group;the gland,the PR expression range and intensity of PR expression in the interstitial substance in the Chinese drug group increased as compared with the model group(P0.05);expressions of PR protein and gene in the Chinese drug group were significantly higher than those in the model group(P0.05).Conclusion:Jiantai Liquid can promote development of the endometrium and improves blastocyst nidation via regulating expressions of PR and PRmRNA in the uterus in the mice with disturbance of blastocyst nidation.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between platelets and serum thrombopoietin (TPO) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and the mechanism of RA with thrombocytosis thereof. Methods: The clinical data of 57 patients with RA were analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups by platelet count: high platelet count(>300×109/L) and normal platelet count. There were 28 healthy persons as control. Serum levels of TPO and interleukin (IL)-6 were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) in patients with RA and healthy controls. Results:(1)Serum TPO and IL-6 were higher in RA with thrombocytosis than those of healthy controls(P < 0.05). Compared the two RA groups, the one with thrombocytosis had higher serum TPO(P < 0.05). (2)The platelet count of RA with thrombocytosis did not correlate with serum level of TPO. It correlated significantly with serum level of IL-6 (r = 0.566, P < 0.01) and C-reactive protein (CRP) (r = 0.401, P < 0.05). (3)The serum level of TPO in RA with thrombocytosis did not correlate with serum IL-6 (r = -0.069, P > 0.05). Conclusion: The serum level of TPO was significantly elevated in RA with thrombocytosis, which suggested that TPO may take part in the pathology of thrombocytosis in RA. The thrombocytosis in RA correlated with inflammatory reaction.
