Objective To investigate the adherence mechanism of Candida albicans to host cells in molecular level. Methods and Results Yeast cell wall protein of Candida albicans were extracted, and purified fibronectin (Fn) adhesin was obtained from yeast cell wall extract. Fn adhesin was analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS PAGE), the molecular weights of Fn adhesin were 60kd and 105kd. In order to find out the effect of the protein on adherence to host cells, human buccal epithelial cells and Candida albicans cells were incubated at 37℃ for 2 hours on a rotator, and yeasts adhering to the surfaces of epithelial cells were assayed microscopically. The adherence rate of C.albicans to buccal epithelial cells was 44 7?6 28%, and after treating the epithelial cells with Fn adhesin, the adherence rate reduced to 28 3?6 18%, P

To study action mechanism and time of administration of indomethacin in SMAO shock rabbits. Method:Thirty-two SMAO shock rabbits were randomly divided into four groups: control group A,indomethacin 5mg/kg I.V. at the occlusion of superior mesenteric artery (group B), indomethacin 5mg/kg L V. immediately after clamp being removed(group C) and the same dose 30min after clamp being removed(group D). Survival rate,hemodynamics, plasma calcium, myocardial calcium, TXB_2 and 6-keto-PGF_1. levels were observed in 4h shock period. Myocardial apecmen were examined with electronic microscope. Result: After indomethacin I.V,the survival rate was higher and bemodynamie better than those of controll. The plasma calcium level remained stable in indomethacin groups. Myocardial calcium content of group B and C was lower than that of group D and A. The TXB_2 and 6-ketoPGF_1. contents were similar in all groups. Under electronic microscope, the damages were slightest in group C and most serious in group D and A among the four groups. Conclusion:Indomethacin has a beneficial effect on the SMAO shock rabbits ,the mechanism of which can be related to improving myocardium contractivity as well as to blocking calcium channel,rather than the action through prostaglandins. The time of administration should be early as possible after shock.

Objective To explore the mechanism of multi-medicine drug resistance in human ovarian cancer cell line COC1/5-Fu. Methods The apoptosis and the tolerance of COC1/5-Fu cell induced by 5-Fu were analyzed by FACS. The expression of apoptosis related genes, such as p53, bcl-2, bcl-xl and bax, in COCI/5-Fu cell line were analyzed by RT-PCR. Results The COC1/5-Fu cell has some de-gree of drug resistance to 5-Fu and several other commonly used kind of chemotherapy medicine, among of which, drug resistance of 5-Fu reach 107.0 times and Paclitaxel reach 9.0 times compared with COC1. When COC1 was treated with the concentration of 5-Fu (0μmo/L, 30μmo/L or 150 μmol/L), the AI was (6.5±1.0) %, (14.0±4.0) % and (20.0±5.0) %, respectively. The rate of apoptosis increased 1.2 time and 2.1 time, compared with not treated with 5-Fu, which were significantly different (P<0.05). But when COC1/5-Fu was treated with the same concentration of 5-Fu (30 μmo/L or 150 μmoL/L), the AI was (6.7±0.7)%, (7.1±2.2)% and (6.5±2.0)%. When treated with the same concentration of 5-Fu (30 μmo/L or 150 μmol/L) , the proportion of apoptosis was significantly increased, G0/G1 phase was increased, and S and G2/ M phases were reduced in COC1 cells, but the proportion of apoptosis and cell cycle was not changed in COC1/5-Fu cells. The expression of bcl-xl , bcl-xs and bax mRNA were significantly increased and the expression of p53 and cpp32 mRNA were significantly decreased in resistant COC1/5-Fu cells , compared with COC1 cells. Conclusion wtp53 gene mutation is related with cell cycle change of ovary cancer cell and drug resistance, which is one of multi- medicine drug resistance mechanisms of COC1/5-Fu.

Objective To investigate the phenotype and the immunoregulatory function of CD8αα+TCRαβ+regulatory T cells in peripheral blood samples from mice.Methods The distribution profile and the phenotype of CD8αα+TCRαβ+regulatory T cells in C57BL/6 mice were detected by flow cytometry.The cytokines released by CD8αα+TCRαβ+regulatory T cells upon the stimulation with anti-CD3 antibody were analyzed by cytometric bead array.The in vitro immunosuppressive activity of CD8αα+TCRαβ+regulatory T cells on activated CD4+T cells was analyzed by using flow cytometry and carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester ( CFSE ) .An adoptive cell transfer assay was set up to evaluate the immunoprotective effects of CD8αα+TCRαβ+ regulatory T cells in a mouse model of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis ( EAE) .Results CD8αα+TCRαβ+regulatory T cells were detected in liver, spleen and peripheral blood samples collected from na?ve C57BL/6 mice.Compared with CD8αβ+TCRαβ+regulatory T cells, CD8αα+TCRαβ+regulatory T cells showed a memory-activated phenotype of CD25+CD122high CD44high CD62Llow CD69high NK1.1+DX5+.CD8αα+TCRαβ+regulatory T cells could produce IL-2 after 24 hours stimulation with anti-CD3 antibody, followed by producing IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-4, IL-17A and traces of IL-6 and IL-10. In vitro, CD8αα+TCRαβ+regulatory T cells specifically suppressed the proliferation of activated CD4+T cells ( P<0.01 ).Moreover, they could delay the onset of EAE in mice and reduce clinical score (P<0.01).Conclusion CD8αα+TCRαβ+regulatory T cells were a unique population with immunoregula-tory function, which could be used as a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of autoimmune disease.

Objective To investigate the pathotypes,epidemiological characteristics and antimicrobial resistance of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) in children with acute bacterial diarrhea in Shanghai.Methods A total of 2 071 outpatient children with probable acute bacterial diarrhea referred to the enteric clinic of Children's Hospital of Fudan University during June 2012 to June 2014 were enrolled in our study.The stool samples were processed for routine microbiologic and biochemistry tests to identify enteric bacteria,including enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC),enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC),enteroinvasive Escherichia coli (EIEC) and enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC).Kirby-Bauer method was used to identify the antibiotic sensitivity.Difference of means between groups was compared by chi-square test.Results Of 2 071 enrolled children,DEC were identified in 145 (7.0 %)cases.148 strains were isolated with three of mix infection strains.All DEC isolates in this study included 106 (71.6%) EPEC,24 (16.2%) ETEC,16(10.8%) EIEC and 2(1.4%) EHEC.The median ages of diarrheal children with DEC infections were 14 months (range:3 months to 13 years) and 62.8% of them were <2 years.Among 125 DEC isolates tested for antimicrobial susceptibility,the rates of resistance to ampicillin,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,cefotaxime,cefepime,gentamicin,ceftazidime,amoxicillinclavulanate,ciprofloxacin,and ofloxacin in a descending order were 55.2%,35.2%,28.0%,27.2%,23.2%,8.8%,5.6%,4.0% and 4.0%,respectively.Resistance rates of EIEC to cefotaxime,cefepime and ceftazidime were 50.0%,43.8% and 25.0%,respectively,which were higher than those of EPEC,ETEC and EHEC.Conclusion DEC is the important enteric bacteria that causes bacterial diarrhea in children in this study.

Aim To observe the effects of promethazine on the analgesia,hypnosis,amnesia and therapeutic index of isoflurane.Methods The experiments were designed to study promethazine on the analgesic effect of isoflurane by hot-plate test and writhing test,and to study the effect of promethazine on the sleeping time of isoflurane by the method of righting reflex,and the amnesia of isoflurane by Morris water maze,and the ED_(50),LD_(50) by sequential method in mice.Results The result of hot-plate test and writhing test indicated that promethazine could enhance the analgesic effect of isoflurane(P<0.05 or P<0.01);through the experiment of righting reflex, sleeping time of isoflurane in mice was extended by promethazine(P<0.01);in Morris water maze experiment, the average latency in the combination of promethazine and isoflurane was longer than that of the promethazine group or isoflurane group(P<0.05 or P<0.01), while aiming to the residence time, the combination of the two was shorter than that in the third quadrant(P<0.01 or P<0.05),the TCPP of the group of isoflurance was more than that of the combination group;promethazine could decrease the ED_(50) of isoflurance(P<0.01),but it did not obviously affect its LD_(50)(P>0.05).Conclusion Promethazine can not only reinforce the effect of isoflurance on analgesia,hypnosis and amnesia, but also boost the therapeutic index of isoflurance.
