Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase catalyzing the first reaction of protein biosynthesis. In mammalian cells, eight aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) and three auxiliary protein factors form a macromolecular aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases complex (aaRS complex). The three nonsynthetase protein factors, namely, p43, p38, and p18 were found to be involved in many other important life activities besides their roles in the complex. The auxiliary factor p43 was the precursor of endothelial monocyte activating polypeptideⅡ (EMAPⅡ), which involved in angiogenesis and apoptosis. The auxiliary factor p38 was crucial for the development of lung, and its abnormal accumulation in neuron would be related to the Parkinson’s disease. The auxiliary factor p38 and p18 could promote the repair of DNA damage via different pathways in a highly organized way. All these breakthroughs enhance our understanding about the interaction between the aaRS complex and the macromolecular signaling network and promote the studies on this field.

Aim To figure out whether Lonicera mac-ranthoides could induce hemolysis. Methods In vitro, macroscopic observation and spectrophotometry were used to observe whether the solutions of extracts from Lonicera macranthoides, MacranthoidinB and Dipsa-cosideB could induce hemolysis in 2% red cell suspen-sion of New Zealand white rabbits. And the three test-ed materials were prepared in concentration gradient of 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 mg· L - 1; and in vivo, mice were respectively treated with MacranthoidinB (0. 110 g·kg - 1 , 0. 055 g·kg - 1 ), DipsacosideB(0. 020 g·kg - 1 , 0. 010 g·kg - 1 ), ex-tracts (2. 275 g·kg - 1 , 1. 137 g·kg - 1 , crude drugs) once per day for 7 days, and all of the tested doses de-pended on the clinical doses. Then, RBC, RET and MCHC before and after administration were tested. Re-sults The hemolytic ratio in each treated group was below 5% in vitro. And in vivo, the three materials did not induce hemolysis and had no significant influence on RBC,RET and MCHC(P > 0. 05). Conclusions Extracts from flower bud of Lonicera macranthoides, MacranthoidinB and DipsacosideB, have not caused hemolysis in vivo and in vitro in this research.

Objective To observe the recent clinical efficacy of the sequential therapy hormone in the treatment of active rheumatoid arthritis.Methods In accordance with the principle of digital sheet,160 patients with active rheumatoid arthritis were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group,80 cases in each group.On the basis of methotrexate and leflunomide in both groups,the hormone sequential therapy was given in the observation group,but prednisone was given in the control group.The clinical efficacy of treatment after 1 week and 3 months were compared in two groups.Results In the observation group,the indicators in 7 d after treatment were significantly reduced,compared with untreated(t =19.90,7.63,14.73,7.58,6.84,14.09,all P ＜0.01),In the control group,three indicators of the duration of morning stiffness,joint tenderness index and joint swelling index in 7d after treatment were significantly reduced,compared with untreated (t =13.42,3.34,7.24,all P ＜ 0.01),Compared the indicators in the two groups in 7 d after treatment,there were statistically significant differences (t =13.07,4.92,10.51,5.23,5.74,15.03,all P ＜ 0.01).The indicators in the 3 months after treatment in both groups were signifi cantly decreased,buttherewasnosignificantdifferencebetweenthetwogroups (t =1.80,1.73,1.59,1.22,1.21,1.35,all P ＞ 0.05).The total effective rate was 80% in the observation group; but the rate was 75 % in the control group;there was no statistically significant difference in the two groups(x2 =0.57,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The sequential hormone therapy is an effective means for the treatment of active rheumatoid arthritis,by controlled the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis effectively and alleviated the patient's condition.

Objective To explore the mechanism that Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus) α-toxin(Hla) regulate miR-142 expression and inhibit macrophage phagocytosis.Methods BALB/C mice and RAW264.7 cells were infected with wild type S.aureus(WT S.aureus),Hla deletion S.aureus(△HlaS.aureus) or phosphate buffered saline(PBS),and the expression level of miR-142 of skin tissues and cells were detected.miR-142 mimics and inhibitor were then applied in the RAW264.7 culture to examine the effect on phagocytosis.Direct targeting of miR-142 on protein kinase Cα(PKCα) was assessed by luciferase assay and western blotting.Results miR-142 expression in △HlaS.aureus group were significantly down-regulated than WT S.aureus group(P<0.05).MiR-142 mimics inhibited RAW264.7 phagocytosis ability and inhibitor enhanced RAW264.7 phagocytosis ability.PKCα was directly targeted by miR-142.MiR-142 mimics significantly decreased the mRNA expression levels of PKCα in RAW264.7 cells(P<0.05).Conclusion Hla could promote miR-142 expression in macrophages.MiR-142 could inhibit macrophage phagocytosis through down-regulated PKCα.

Objective To compare the safety and effectiveness between treatments with autologous platelet gel (APG) versus standard care for treating refractory diabetic dermal ulcers.Methods The 46 patients with proved nonhealing diabetic dermal ulcers were enrolled. Eligible for the study were patients with grade II/III ulcers according to Wagner, lasting for at least 2 weeks and with no signs of infection at recruitment.Patients were given their informed consent document and randomly assigned to two groups: standard care (ST, n=23) or standard care plus topic application of APG (APG, n=23) for twelve weeks.The treatment of blood glucose, blood pressure and lipids was optimized and the empiric antibiotic treatment was further adjusted according to the results of culture and sensitivity testing in all patients. APG treatment consisted of wound dressing with APG, followed by topical washing and cleaning. The APG was then covered with vaseline gauze for 72 hours, after which the ulcers were treated by standard care. Participants were seen thrice a week, twice a week, or at weekly intervals. Twelve weeks observation was set as the end point.Results The would of APG group were improved in 22 patients with ulcers healed completely and 1 case with would area reduced. In the ST group, 13 ulcers were healed, 6 worsened and 4 with would area reduced. The cumulative rate of ulcer healing was 95.7% in the APG group versus 56.5% in the ST group (P=0.002). The total effective rate in APG vs ST group was 100.0% vs 73.9% (P=0.009). By Kaplan-Meier analysis,the time-to-healing of ulcer and time-to-lutation of sinus were significantly different between two groups (log-rank, P=0.006, 0.000, respectively). No treatment-related adverse events were observed. Conclusions Treatment with APG in addition to standard care results in a significantly faster and better healing for a refractory diabetic dermal ulcer and does not raise any safety concerns. So APG treatment can be a valuable and effective aid in the management of diabetic foot ulcers.

This method was implemented by four phases: courses designing, group-preparing, problems-organizing and teaching practice. The method was evaluated by students' feedback and survey results of patients, teachers and teaching councilors. It was showed that the teaching effects of PBL combined with formative evaluation was better than tra-ditional teaching method in pediatrics teaching.

This article was aimed to study the sedative and hypnotic effects of different eluents of Shuangxiatang (SXT). The effects of SXT water decoction, water eluent, 20%, 70% and 95% alcohol eluent on spontaneous ac-tivity and the sleeping induced by subthreshold dose of pentobarbital sodium were measured. The results showed that the SXT decoction, 20% and 95% alcohol eluent can significantly decrease the number of rearing in mice with the percentage of 78.5%, 78.3% and 62.5%, respectively. SXT water eluent and 70% alcohol eluent can significantly decrease the spontaneous activity of mice (P < 0.01), the number of rearing (P < 0.01) and grooming time (P < 0.05). SXT water decoction can significantly shorten sleep latency (P < 0.05), prolong sleep time (P <0.05), and increase rates of sleeping in mice. SXT water eluent can significantly shorten sleep latency in mice (P< 0.05), increase rates of sleeping in mice. SXT water decoction and water eluent have the sedative and hypnotic effects. And the effects are more than alcohol eluents.
