Objective To investigate the expression of TGF?2 in proximal OFT septum in connexin(Cx) 43 knockout(KO) mice and illustrate its relationship with myocardialization and reveal whether exogenous TGF?2 could promote myocardialization in vitro.Methods Objects were C57/BL6 mice of E12.5 to E15.5 by the mating of 2 month old Cx43 heterozygous mice,which included Cx43 homozygotes(Cx43-/-),heterozygotes(Cx43+/-) and wild-types(Cx43+/+) genotyped by PCR method.?-sarcomeric actin(?-SCA) and TGF?2 were detected by immunohistochemistry.TGF?2 with 3 different dosages was used to be the intervent added to the heart culture system in which the wild-type hearts of E12.5 were cultured till E15.5 before detecting the expression of ?-SCA by immunohistochemistry.Results The expression of ?-SCA in the proximal OFT septum was delayed obviously in Cx43-/-predominantly at E13.5 and E14.5.As compared with the Cx43+/+,the expression of TGF?2 in proximal OFT septum decreased obviously in Cx43-/-mice predominantly at E14.5,and less obviously in(Cx43+/-) mice.None of the intervention groups showed the obvious promoted myocardialization.Conclusions Cx43 KO mice exhibited delayed myocardialization,and the decreased TGF?2 may involve in the abnormal myocardialization of Cx43 KO mice.Application of TGF?2 in vitro could not exactly mimic the in vivo expression pattern of TGF?2,or the process of myocardialization may require precise dosage of TGF?2 and stringency of cultured system.

OBJECTIVE:To compare the efficacy and safety of metoprolol and bisoprolol in the treatment of diastolic heart fail-ure. METHODS:150 patients with diastolic heart failure were randomly divided into group A(75 cases) and group B(75 cases). All patients received aspirin,angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors,angiotensin receptor antagonists,calcium antagonists,di-uretic and cardiac drugs and other conventional treatment;based on it,group A received Metoprolol tartrate tablet with initial dose of 6.25 mg,orally,twice a day,then increased to 100-200 mg based on improvement and tolerability;group B received 1.25 mg Metoprolol tartrate tablet,orally,once a day,then increased to 10 mg based on improvement and tolerability. The treatment course for 2 groups was 12 weeks. Clinical efficacy,and left ventricular end systolic diameter(LVESD),left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD),myocardial performance index(LVTei index),brain natriuretic pep-tide(BNP),interleukin(IL)-1,IL-6,tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α before and after treatment,and incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:The efficacy in group B was significantly higher than group A,incidence of adverse reac-tions were significantly lower than group A,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Before treatment,there were no significant differences in the LVESD,LVEF,LVEDD,LVTei index,BNP,IL-1,IL-6 and TNF-α in 2 groups(P>0.05). Af-ter treatment,LVESD,LVEDD,LVTei index,BNP,IL-1,IL-6 and TNF-α in 2 groups were significantly lower than before,and group B was lower than group A,LVEF was significantly higher than before,and group B was higher than group A,the differenc-es were statistically significant(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Based on the conventional treatment,bisoprolol is significantly superi-or to metoprolol in terms of efficacy,relieving clinical symptoms and improving cardiac functions in the treatment of diastolic heart failure,with better safety.

Objective To discuss the relative importance of the 5 English skills and to compare medical majors' main purposes of English listening and medical majors' actual usage of English listening.Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted among medical sophomores in the Second Military Medical University who had finished the college English course.Data were processed by Excel 2007 and statistical results were described by percentage.Results Participants paid enough attention to five English skills,especially the listening ability; a total of 98.4％ of the participants recognized the importance of listening skills.Students' learning needs and course arrangements are mainly about examinations,graduations future study.Medical English course arrangements cannot satisfy the learning needs.Conclusions Students recognized the importance of five English skills,especially the listening skills.Students' learning needs are basically examination-oriented and the medical English course is not enough for the students.Suggestions on the English teaching,course design and the integration of college English and medical English are put forward in the paper.

Based on the theory of self-access learning,this paper makes an investigation into some factors which have great influence on the fostering of learner autonomy by the case study of the online English writing course.

We carried out a questionnaire survey on the career planning situation of pharmacy postgraduate students at Peking university, so as to collect information for career planning education of pharmacy postgraduate students, which is expected to promote their employment on completion of degree. by. The results revealed the status quo of career planning and the demand for guidance in this aspect. Recommendations for career planning education of pharmacy postgraduate students were made thereby.

OBJECTIVE To manage the surgical instruments borrowed from medical equipment companies effectively in order to prevent or decrease the incidence of hospital infection.METHODS We analyzed the hidden trouble inducing the hospital infection by data investigation.Effective management of surgical instruments was suggested.RESULTS The management method was accepted by most departments and the surgical site infection was well controlled.CONCLUSIONS Effective management of borrowed surgical instruments should be further emphasized to ensure the safety for operation.

According to the requirement of the Ministry of Education of China, the new training scheme for adult Pharmaceutical undergraduates were drawn up by research and practice to meet the development needs of market economy and licensed pharmacist system in China.

OBJECTIVE:To analyze the volatile components of Cladia aggregate by SPME-GC-MS. METHODS:The column was ZB-5 MSI 5% benzene-95% dimethylpolysiloxane fused silica capillary column,programmed temperature was heated from 5 ℃/min to 220 ℃(maintaining 2 min),detector was flame ionization detector,carrier gas was high purity He(99.999%),the column flow rate was 1.0 ml/min,vaporization room temperature was 250 ℃,splitless injection. MS conditions:ion source was electron ionization source,ionizing voltage was 70 eV, interface temperature was 280 ℃,ion source temperature was 230 ℃, quadrupole temperature was 150℃,emission current was 34.6μA,multiplier voltage was 1 502 V,solvent delay time was 1.5 min, and quality range was 30-500 amu. RESULTS:19 volatile chemical components were separated and identified from C. aggregate, mainly olefins an aldehydes,alcohols,ketones,furans oxygenated volatile chemical components,relative contents accounted for 63.55% to all chromatographic peaks in total ion chromatogram,in which,2,4-octadiene(29.66%),hexanal(5.93%),3-meth-yl-1,4-heptadiene(5.45%)and furan(4.65%)showed the highest contents. CONCLUSIONS:The study has basically made clear the main volatile components in C. aggregate,which provide certain scientific basis for further exploring C. aggregate.

0.05).Both HMGB1 mRNA expression and HMGB1 protein level were remarkably higher in LPS treatment group than that in control group(P0.05).CONCLUSION:RPM inhibits HMGB1 expression not only by directly suppressing STAT3 activation,but also by indirectly reducing TNF-? level.
