Tight junctions are the primary structure of intestional epithelial cells,which maintains the integrity of the epithelial cell layers.Besides claudins,occludins and ZO-1,more than 40 different proteins have been discovered.The tight junctions(TJs) serve not only as the barrier to the passage of ions and molecules through the paracellula pathway and maintenance of epithelial cell polarity,but also to integrate such diverse processes as cell growth and differentiation,tumor suppression,gene transcription.This review is about the recent discovery of TJ proteins and their functions,which will lead to the complement about intestinal barrier function.

Tight junctions(TJ) are the basic structure of intestinal barrier,which serve as the rate-limitting barrier to passive movement across intestinal epithelial cell and the maintenance of epithelial cell polarity.Recently some progress has been achieved in the structure of TJ proteins.This review is about the regulating mechanisms of TJs response to common enteric pathogens and other factors.

Abjective:To investigate the effect of Lactobacillus plantarun Onlly regulating the intestine epithelial permeability and tight junction proteins of enterocyte-like Caco-2 cells in responsing to Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli.Methods:In the model of Caco-2 monolayer cells,The cells were divided into four groups: normal group,infection group,Lactobacillus group and gentamicin group.The TER was measured by Milicell ERS and the transmissivity of mannitol was determined by HPLC.The distribution and structure of tight junction proteins,such as Claudin-1,Occludin,ZO-1,JAM-1 were examined by indirect IHC.Results: The TER and the transmissivity of mannitol increased after infected with EIEC,but the increase was decreased after dealing with Lactobacillus plantarun Onlly(P

Currently,the popular notions on the mechanisms of gut-derived-infection are described as follows.The stress may cause the damage of intestinal mucosal barrier and dysfunction of intestinal immune response,which leads to the alteration of intestinal flora,abnormal proliferation of opportunistic pathogen as well as the translocation of alive bacteria and their toxin into systemic compartment.As a result,the proinflammatory cytokines are released to induce the outbreak of intestinal inflammation or systemic inflammatory response syndrome,even the MODS.This review focuses on the relationship between biological behavior of intestinal bacteria and gut-derived-infection.

One important problem of regional information system in healthcare is the access to electronic patient records across healthcare institute boundaries. The Integrating Healthcare Enterprise initiatively proposes the integration profile of the retrieve information for display that enables a user to retrieve and display patients' related documents cross hospitals. The middleware is added to HIS to realize the cross-hospital data access to clinical information with access authorization and privacy regulations. Besides,the integration of cross-hospital patients' clinical information is achieved based on the realization of Patient ID protocol in different systems.

Objective It is being increasingly recognized that electronic management of health information(eHealth) contributes greatly to safe medical treatment,high efficiency and better quality of health care.Definitive standards are required for medical information systems to share electronic health records.Methods The structure and contents of electronic health records were extensively investigated for sharing standards.The standards were evaluated in their functions and influences to the sharing of electronic health records.Results Suggestions were given to the standards of regional electronic health records.Conclusion Regional electronic health records facilitates individual medical care.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the application of the dorsal metacarpal perforator sliding flap for web-space reconstruction in congenital syndactyly.

METHODSAccording to the size and shape of skin defect at the web space after division operation of syndactyly, the corresponding intermetacarpal perforator sliding flap was designed. The edge of the flap was cut off, but its underlying tissue was not dissected. From May 2007 to November 2012, 28 web-spaces in 15 patients with syndactyly (10 male and 5 female) were reconstructed.

RESULTSAll the 28 flaps survived completely. The flap size ranged from 3 cm x 2 cm to 1.5 cm x 1.0 cm. 14 cases with 26 flaps were followed up for 10-22 months (average, 14.5 month). The reconstructed web spaces had normal appearance and movement range. The 2-point discrimination distance was 9-13 mm (average, 11 mm). According to the Swanson Standard, 18 fingers were graded as excellent, 8 as good and 2 as fair (excellent and good, 92.6%, 26/28).

CONCLUSIONSReconstruction of web-space in syndactyly with the dorsal metacarpal perforator flap has the advantages of easy handling, good cosmetic and functional results.

Aim To explore the effect of m-Nisoldipine(m-Nis) on 5-HT-induced proliferation,migration of rat PASMCs and to study the mechanisms.Methods PASMCs were cultured with the explant technique,and were divided into 6 groups:control group,5-HT(1 μmol·L~(-1)) group and m-Nis(10~(-5),10~(-6),10~(-7),10~(-8) mol·L~(-1))group.MTT assay was used to evaluate the proliferation of PASMCs,and transwell chambers were used to detect the migration of PASMCs.In addition,the expression of PCNA and the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 were evaluated by Western blot analysis.Results m-Nis inhibited the proliferation(P<0.05 or P<0.01)and migration(P<0.01)of rat PASMCs induced by 5-HT obviously.Similarly,Western blot analysis of PCNA indicated that the expression of PCNA was significantly higher in 5-HT group than that in control group(P<0.01).Whereas,in four m-Nis treated groups,the level of PCNA was markedly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Meanwhile,m-Nis 10~(-5),10~(-6) and 10~(-7) mol·L~(-1) pretreatment also reduced 5-HT-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 obviously(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion m-Nis inhibits 5-HT-induced proliferation and migration of rat PASMCs obviously,which may be related to the inhibition of PCNA expression and the blockage of ERK1/2/MAPK signal pathway.

This study is to explore the activation of the Ca2+/CaM/CaN signal pathway in 5-HT-induced proliferation of rat pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) and the inhibitory effect of m-nisoldipine (m-Nis) on this pathway. PASMCs were cultured with the explant technique. The proliferation of PASMCs was evaluated by MTT assay. Confocal microscopy was used to measure the change of [Ca2+]i. The mRNA expression of CaM and CaN was evaluated by RT-PCR and the activity of CaN was measured according to the instruction of kits. The results of MTT assay suggested that 5-HT (1 micromol x L(-1)) significantly induced the proliferation of rat PASMCs (P < 0.01), which was inhibited obviously by m-Nis (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Similarly, m-Nis inhibited 5-HT-induced elevation of [Ca2+]i (P < 0.01). The mRNA expression of CaM, CaN and the activation of CaN were also inhibited by m-Nis at different degrees (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Thus, the results of this study suggested that Ca2+/CaM/CaN signal pathway played an important role in 5-HT-induced proliferation of rat PASMCs, the inhibition of m-Nis on proliferation of rat PASMCs may be related to the blockage of Ca2+/CaM/CaN signal pathway by inhibiting the elevation of [Ca2+]i.

Electronic Healthcare Record (EHR) is one of the most important part of the medical information system. This paper proposes both the objective of sharing tele-medical information based on PACS and the building plan including the multi- dimensional electronic records integration, the medical PACS grid storage and the electronic authenticated security technique. This study has great significance to the development of eHealth.
