Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of Reduning injections in the treatment of infantile rotavirus enteritis. Methods:Totally 102 cases of infantile rotavirus enteritis in our hospital from June 2012 to June 2013 were randomly divided into two groups, the control group had 50 patients, and the treatment group had 52 cases. Both groups were given conventional symp-tomatic treatment, the control group was given 10 mg·kg-1 ribavirin injections in 100ml glucose injections for intravenous infusion, qd, and the treatment group was given 0. 5 ml·kg-1 Reduning injections in 100ml glucose injections for intravenous infusion, qd. Ev-ery 3-day was a course of treatment. The clinical curative effect of the two groups was observed, and the clinical symptoms, hospitaliza-tion time and adverse reactions were also studied. Results:After the treatment, the total effective rate in the control group was 70. 0%, while that in the treatment group was 92. 3%, and there was significant difference between the two groups (P<0. 05). The clinical symptom disappearance time and hospitalization time in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group with statistically significant difference (P<0. 05). During the treatment, the control group had 5 cases of leucopenia and 2 cases of skin rash, and the patients all recovered after withdrawal of the drug, while the treatment group showed no obvious adverse reaction. Con-clusion:The curative effect of Reduning injections in the treatment of infantile rotavirus enteritis is promising, which can effectively improve the clinical symptoms, shorten the course of disease and reduce adverse reactions with the value of clinical application.

Objective Characteristics of removing disinfection by-product precursors by conventional processes were studied in a certain city that lives on surface water. Methods Gas chromatography was employed to determine trihalomethane and haloacetic acids in water. Sampling time was from January to April in 2003 and there were 5 sampling sites each time. Results Trihalomethane formation potential(THMFP) in the source water was 15.00-39.83 ?g/L and in the supply drinking water it was 13.42-13.85 ?g/L. It showed that the conventional water treatment processes played a positive role in controlling THMFP. Haloacetic acids formation potential(HAAFP) in source water changed from 61.79 ?g/L to 78.72 ?g/L and the average removing rate of HAAFP by conventional processes was 44.13%. Conclusion Further studies are needed about organic matters in different kinds of source water in different areas and reactivity of DBP precursors with chlorine and DBPs generating ability. All these studies will contribute to control DBPs in drinking water.

Some grain sprouts herbs recorded in Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2010, including Oryzae Fructus Germinatus, Setariae Fructus Germinatus and Hordei Fructus Germinatus, together with their adulterants, were identified by ITS2 sequences. The genomic DNA were extracted, their ITS2 sequences were amplified, and purified PCR products were
sequenced. Sequences were assembled using the CodonCode Aligner. The genetic distances, variable sites and the neighbor-joining (NJ) phylogenetic tree were computed by MEGA 6.0 in accordance with the Kimura 2-Parameter (K2P) model. The results showed that their intraspecific genetic distances were all much lower than the interspecific ones of themselves and their adulterants. The NJ tree based on ITS2 sequence indicated that Oryza sativa, Setariaitalica, and Hordeum vulgar formed one monophyletic clade respectively, in addition any one of the grain sprouts herbs and its adulterants could be distinguished clearly. Therefore, ITS2 sequence is suitable to be as a barcode to identify the grain sprouts herbs and their adulterants.

Objective To probe the gene expression of normal epithelial cell specific-1 (NES1) in normal liver cells and liver cancer cell lines , and investigate the gene methylation status and its impacts on gene expression and cell biology .Methods The expression level of NES1 mRNA was detected in HepG2 and L02 cells by RT-PCR and RT-QPCR, and the level of gene methylation was examined by MSP .We de-tected cell viability by MTT , NES1 mRNA by RT-QPCR and cyclinD1, P21 and P53 level by Western blot after treating cells with 5-Aza-CdR.Results Compared with L02, NES1 mRNA expression in HepG2 was significantly reduced, and the level of NES1 exon 3 CpG island methylation in HepG2 cells was much higher than that in L02 cells.After demethylation , NES1 mRNA expression and protein level of p 21 and p53 in HepG2 cells were up-regulated , while the cell viability and the level of CyclinD 1 were decreased .Conclu-sions In hepatocellular carcinoma , low expression of NES1 mRNA is related to the gene exon 3 CpG island methylation .NES1 exon 3 methylation may be one of the molecular mechanisms for reducing NES 1 mRNA level, and 5-aza-dC could inhibit cell proliferation by inducing cell cycle arrest in HepG 2 cells.

Objective To explore the long-term effects of physical exercise on learning,memory and the expression of plasticity-related gene-1 (PRG-1) in the cerebral cortex of rats with penicillin-induced developmental seizures.Methods Twenty-four 21-day Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a control group (CONT1),an exercised control group (CONT2),a seizure group (EXP1) and a seizure plus exercises group (EXP2),each of 6 using a random number table.Penicillin was injected intraperitoneally to the rats in the EXP1 and EXP2 groups to induce seizures,while those in the CONT1 and CONT2 groups received saline injections.Morris water-maze tests were performed to evaluate spatial learning and memory capacity.The rats in the CONT2 and EXP2 groups were administered an aerobic exercise program 30 min per day for 6 consecutive days.The other groups were maintained on the treadmill for the same time but without exercising.Real-time polymerase chain reactions were used to quantify the expression of PRG-1 mRNA in the cerebral cortex.Results There was a decreasing trend in marginal searching and increasing taxis and linear searching in all four groups.Ridit analysis showed that in the watermaze tests on days 2 and 4 the average scores of the control groups were significantly higher than those of the EXP1 and EXP2 groups.However,significant increases in the average scores were observed in the maze tests of the EXP1 group after day 2 and with the EXP2 group from day 4 on.The average scores of the control group were significantly lower than those of the other 3 groups.In the first maze test,the average memory scores of the two seizure groups were significantly lower than those of the controls.In the second maze test,however,only the EXP1 group's average score was significantly worse than those of the other groups.That of the EXP2 group had improved significantly,and was not significantly different from that of the CONT2 group.The expression of PRG-1 was much higher in the CONT2,EXP1 and EXP2 groups than in the CONT1 group.The average expression of PRG-1 in the EXP2 group was not significantly different from that in the EXP1 group.Conclusions Physical exercise can significantly relieve the cognitive deficits induced by long-term seizures,which may be associated with the regulation of PRG-1 expression in the cerebral cortex.

Objective To investigate the role of local aldosterone system in oncofetal fibronectin ( oncofetal FN) mRNA expression and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in human mesangial cells (HMCs) exposed to short-term intermittent high glucose and the effect of Fenofibrate.Methods The HMCs were divided into 8 groups:normal glucose(NG) ;osmotic fluctuation(OF) ;mean glucose load (MGL) ;stable high glucose (SHG),short-term intermittent high glucose (IHG) ; intermittent high glucose plus eplerenone (IHGE) ; intermittent high glucose plus fenofibrate(IHGF) ; and normal glucose plus fenofibrate (NGF) groups.The mRNA expression levels of Aldosterone synthase ( CYP11 B2 ),11 β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 ( 11βHSD2 ) and oncofetal FN were determined by RT-PCR.The expression of CYP11B2 protein was determined by western-blot.Aldosterone level in cell culture supernatant was detected by radioimmunoassay.The expression and translocation of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR)protein were assayed with confocal laser scanning microscopy. ROS levels were determined by Fluorescence microscopy and fluorescence microplate reader.Results ( 1 ) MGL,SHG,and IHG groups showed a 2.41,3.63,and 4.45 times increase in CYP11B2 mRNA expression,and a 1.83,2.15,and 2.78 times increase in CYP11B2 protein expression,respectively,compared with NG group (P ＜ 0.05 ).The aldosterone levels of HMCs culture supernatant in MGL,SHG,and IHG groups were also increased,being 1.49,2.04,and 2.54 times of that in NG group ( P＜0.05 ),and the degree of elevation in IHG group was more marked than that in SHG group( P＜0.05 ).MR was activated and translocated from cytosol to nucleus in MGL,SHG,and IHG groups.Quantitative analysis showed the ratioes of cytosol/nucleus fluorescence intensity in MGL,SHG,and IHG groups were 15％,38％,and 53％ decreased as compared with that in NG group,and the decrease was more marked in IHG group ( P＜0.05 ).(2) Oncofetal FN mRNA expression and ROS levels in MGL,SHG,and IHG groups were increased,being 1.54,2.31,3.65 and 1.26,1.91,2.48 times of those in NG group,respectively ( P＜0.05 ),and this increase was more marked in group IHG ( P＜O.05 ).Compared with IHG group,oncofetal FN mRNA expression and ROS levels in group IHGE were significantly decreased by 54％ and 53％,and in group IHGF by 45％ and 39％. ( 3 ) CYP11B2 mRNA,protein,and aldosterone levels in IHGF group were decreased by 74％,59％,and 50％,and the activation of MR in group IHGF was inhibited when the ratio of cytosol/nuclear fluorescence intensity was increased 1.88 fold as compared with that in group IHG ( P＜0.05 ).Conclusions Increased expressions of oncofetal FN and ROS by HMCs induced by short-term intermittent high glucose were nore marked than those induced by stable high glucose.The mechanism was associated with activation of local aldosterone system.Fenofibrate may inhibit the activation of local aldosterone system and alleviate the injury to HMCs induced by intermittent high glucose.
