Objective To identify the pathogen of an influenza epidemic situation and analyze the genetic characteristic of hemagglutinin( HA ) gene and neuraminidase(NA) gene of this pathogen. Methods Real-time RT-PCR was used to dectect nucleic acid of the pandemic( H1N1 ) 2009 virus from oropharyngeal swabs of initial influenza-like illness in epidemic. The viruses were was inoculated and isolated with embryonated eggs. And the HA gene and NA gene were sequenced to analyze their characteristic. Results The influenza epidemic situation was caused by the pandemic( H1N1 ) 2009 virus. The HA and NA sequences data showed that the virus had the high homology with reference virus, and the NA sequences had not the H274Y mutation. Conclusion In this study, the pandemic( H1N1 ) 2009 virus were similar with the vaccine-like virus and the isolated virus of China, and sensitive to oseltamivir.

Objective To evaluate the performance of Cys C results among two detection system.Methods The particle-enhanced immunonephrometic assay was used in Dade Behring BNII. Immunoturbic assay was used in Hitachi 7170 to evaluate the JING' YUAN reagents.We compared the precison,linearity,interference,correlation,and calibrators agreement with Dade Behring BNII.Results The total CV of the samples that contain 0.6-5.0 mg/L was less than 10%.The Dade Behring and JING'YUAN method showed good linearity.Haemoglobin(10 g/L),Bilirubin(300 mg/L), Vitamin C(5 g/L)in the tested sample had no significant interference in the assay(interference 0.05) between JING' YUAN and Dade Behring reagents.Values were slightly lower than that from the Dade Behring BNII method,the mean bias was-0.16.The bias range was 1.1%-23% between JING'YUAN and Dade Behring for one sample.Conclusions The precision,linearity and interference test were suitable for routine Cys C measurement on automated biochemistry analyzer,but results has bias.

The thermotolerant bacteria which was isolated from the Apple Juice Concentrate(AJC) was investigated by comparison with the standard strain of Aliyclobacillus acidoterrestris DSM3922 using Kirin-medium acidified with malic acid.The results shows the two polluted bacteria isolated from AJC can grow under the temperature of 21?C~55?C and pH of 2.4~6.2,which was corresponded with the characteristics of the thermo-acidiphilic Alicyclobacillus spp..Further more,the cell morphology,colony morphology,cultural characteristics and physiological characteristics tests indicated the two isolated strains of thermotolerant bacteria have obviously similar characteristics with the standard strain of Aliyclobacillus acidoterrestris DSM3922.

Objective To explore the effect of vascular endothelial growth factor antisense oligonucleotides(AS-VEGF)on HL60 cell and HL60/VCR multidrug resistance cell and analyze the function of P-gp and the expression of related multidrug resistance genes including Bcl-2,Mcl-1,MDR1,MRP,GST?,TopoⅡ? and TopoⅡ?.Methods A vector AS-VEGF which expressed in eukaryotic cell was established,then transfected the vector into HL60 and HL60/VCR by limposome transfection technology,observed and drew the growth curve by Tapanlan taining,RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of Bcl-2,Mcl-1,MDR1,MRP,GST?,TopoⅡ? and TopoⅡ? in mRNA level after transfected 24 h and 48 h.Western Blot was used to detect the expression of P-gp in proteinum level after transfected 24 h and 48 h.Results The growth of HL60 and HL60/VCR was inhibited by AS-VEGF(1.25 mmol/L).Between HL60 and HL60/VCR,AS-VEGF decreased the expression of MDR1,MRP,GST? and TopoⅡ? but could not influence the expression of Bcl-2,Mcl-1 and TopoⅡ?,and the expression of P-gp was also obviously decreased in 48 h compared with that in 24 h.Conclusions AS-VEGF can inhibite the growth of HL60 and HL60/VCR and reverse multidrug resistance by changing cell microenvironment and the cell membrane correlated protein transportating channel,reduce the cell disintoxicating and the self-repair ability.

Objective To explore the significance of the dynamic changes of pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines in the onset and development of acute panreatitis (AP). Methods Pro-inflammatory cytokines TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-8 and anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-10 and IL-1ra in the plasma of 48 patients with AP and 20 healthy individuals were determined with ELISA. Results The levels of all pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines in plasma was significantly higher in AP patients than in control group (P<0.05) in early stage of the disease, and then all levels were decreased gradually, consistent with the alterations of clinical symptoms of the AP patients. Conclusion The dynamic changes of pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines might play important role in the onset and development of AP.

Objective To investigate plasma levels of total carnitine (TC) and free camitine (FC) in patients undergoing hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.Methods 200 cases of normal group came from physical examination in this hospital,all testing cases were the in-hospital patients in the department of nephropathy.TC and FC were determined by use of an enzymatic cycle assay on Hitachi 7170 automatic biochemical analyzer.Results In 200 cases of normal group,TC level was (56.52?9.61) ?mol/L,and FC was (46.60?8.23) ?mol/L.In 37 hemodialysis patients,TC and FC levels were (41.47?13.22) ?mol/L and (24.58?8.91)?mol/L before dialysis,a statistic difference was observed against the control group (P0.05).Conclusions Carnitine deficiency was seen in most patients undergoing hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.Furthermore,the deficiency status got worse along with the dialysis course in hemodialysis patients.Carnitine infusion can effectively improve the status of these patients.
