Leukemia is a kind of cloning disease from malignant hematopoietic stem cells. Its patho-genesis may have relationship with proliferation out of control,dysdiffreentiation and inhibition of apoptosis about leukemia cells. The study confirms that CD44 is expressed in leukemia cells,promoting the occurrence and development of leukemia through participation in cell adhension,proliferation,migration and invasion behavior. In vitro experiment shows that CD44 targeted therapies can effectively kill leukemia cells,and reduce the toxicity to normal tissue cells. Therefore,aiming at the design of the anticancer drugs targeted for CD44 is expected to be used in clinical treatment of leukemia.

Objective To analyze the common respiratory tract infection pathogens distribution and their drug resistance in pedi-atric cardiac intensive care unit(CICU),so as to provide reference for clinical rational use of antibiotics.Methods 1 350 cases of sputum specimens from lower respiratory tract infection patients of pediatric CICU in the medical center between January 2011 and December 2012 were cultivated and drug susceptibilities were tested.The results were retrospectively analyzed.Results 490 patho-genic strains were isolated from 1 350 cases of sputum specimens and identified,including Gram negative bacilli 288 strains (58.78%),Gram positive coccus 140 strains(28.57%),fungi 62 strains(12.65%,mainly Candida albicans ).Gram negative bacilli was given priority to with Klebsiella pneumoniae (62 strains,12.65%),followed by Branhamella catarhalis ,Pseudomonas aerugi-nosa and Escherichia coli .The rates of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases(ESBLs)-producing strains among Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 73.33% and 66.13%,respectively.Gram positive coccus was given priority to with Staphylococcus aureus (65 strains,13.27%),followed by Streptococcus pneumoniae .Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)accounted for 24.62%.Conclusion Staphylococcus aureus ,Streptococcus pneumoniae and Klebsiella pneumoniae are main pathogens of re-spiratory tract infection in pediatric CICU.And there is multiple drug-resistant bacteria infection.Rational applicattion of antibiot-ics according to the test results of isolation and drug susceptibility is an effective way to control the infection of critical children and reduce the emergence of resistant strains.

Objective To explore the relationship between the red cell volume distribution width (RDW)in patients with ges-tational diabetes and insulin resistance(IR).Methods A total number of 160 pregnancies performed in Guangzhou Women and Children’s Medical Center from January to October 2016.Matching 80 patients with gestational diabetes (the GDM Group)with 80 healthy pregnancies according to their age,gestational weeks and times.Their inflammatory parameters (hs-CRP,neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio,RDW)were respectively examined.HOMA-IR was calculated by testing the level of FBG and FIns.The association of the red cell volume distribution width with insulin resistance was analyzed.Results The level of four inflammatory parameters (hs-CRP,WBC,neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio,RDW)were significantly higher than that the control group (t=5.695,5.232,3.337,7.814,all P<0.01).Pearson correlated analysis suggested that RDW had positive correlation with HOMA-IR (r=0.58,P<0.01).Conclusion The RDW level were elevated in the GDM patients and had positive correlation with HOMA-IR,which indicated that IR was associated with inflammation and provided proof to research mechanism of GDM.

Aim To investigate the effects of Fufangdanshen on TNF-? stimulated vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMC) and discover potential molecular mechanism to cure atherosclerosis at molecular level.Methods TNF-? stimulated VSMC was used as dysfunction cell model;VSMC proliferation was detected with MTT and FACS;proteomic protocol involving 2-DE,image analysis and spectrometry detection were used to detect regulated protein by Fufangdanshen.Results Fufangdanshen inhibited expression of 16 proteins but promoted expression of 24 proteins in TNF-? stimulated VSMC.The expression of CaMKK and N-ras were decreased by Fufangdanshen,which farther decreased matrix metalloproteinase production;while cell cycle related protein p21,p53 were increased by Fufangdanshen in TNF-? treated VSMC.Conclusion The inhibition of proliferation and migration of VSMC through decreased matrix metalloproteinase production and increased cell cycle related protein p21,p53 might be the mechanism of Fufangdanshen to cure atherosclerosis.

Objective To study the variation and characteristics of HIV-1 tat exon 1 gene from a patient with AIDS dementia complex( ADC), so as to research the pathogenesis of ADC. Methods The tat gene was amplified with nested PCR from genomic DNA which was extracted from lymph node, spleen and different brain tissues( meninges, grey matter from frontal cortex, white matter from frontal cortex, temporal cortex and basal ganglia) of a patient who died of ADC. PCR products were cloned into the pGEM-T vector,after transformation and selection by ampicillin and blue/white spotting. Five of positive clones were sequenced. HIV-1 tat sequences were processed with BioEdit and MEGA4. With the softwares, Neighbor-Joining tree, p-Distances, values of ds/dn, and analysis of amino acid motifs were all done. Results The samples were all identified as HIV-1 B and genetic variation exists in HIV-1 tat isolated from different tissue;Compared with HXB2, sixteen sites of the amino acid seque nce coded by the HIV-1 tat gene which was isolated from the patient changed. In addition, part of the changes were different between periphery and brain,especially, the five Q54R changes from basal ganglia and one Q54R change from temporal cortex are deserve to follow with interest. Conclusion Variations exist in the HIV-1 tat genes extracted from the ADC patient and the variations from peripheral and central nerve tissues were different, whether the variations concerned with the pathogenesis of ADC need more research.

In the present study, an ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled with time-of-fight mass spectrometry (UPLC-TOF/MS) based chemical profiling approach was used to evaluate chemical constitution between co-decoction and mixed decoction of ginseng and Radix Aconiti Praeparata. Two different kinds of decoctions, namely co-decoction of ginseng and Radix Aconiti Praeparata: water extract of mixed two herbs, and mixed decoction of ginseng and Radix Aconiti Praeparata: mixed water extract of each individual herbs, were prepared. Batches of these two kinds of decoction samples were subjected to UPLC-TOF/MS analysis. The datasets of t(R) m/z pairs, ion intensities and sample codes were processed with supervised partial least squared discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) to holistically compare the difference between these two decoction samples. Significant difference between the two decoction samples was showed in the results of positive ion mode. The contents of hypaconitine and deoxyaconitine decreased, while that of benzoylmesaconine, benzoylhypaconine and dehydrated benzoylmesaconine increased in the samples of co-decoction of ginseng and Radix Aconiti Praeparata. The content of diester-diterpenoid alkaloids decreased, while that of monoester-diterpenoid alkaloids increased, which is probably the basis of toxicity-attenuated action when combined ginseng with Radix Aconiti Praeparata.
