BACKGROUND:Kalikrein 1 is an important component of the kalikrein-kinin system. Studies have shown that kalikrein can protect the cardiovascular system by promoting angiogenesis and inhibiting myocardial inflammation, but there is no report on its effect on inducing differentiation of stem cels. OBJECTIVE: To determine the transfection efficiency of kalikrein 1 adenoviral vector in rat bone mesenchymal stem cels. METHODS:Using adenovirus as a vector, the target gene kalikrein 1 was transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. Fluorescence microscopy, MTT method and flow cytometry were used to investigate the effect of transfection and determine the optimal multiplicity of infection. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Adenovirus carrying kalikrein 1 was successfuly transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. Results from flow cytometry showed that the transfection efficiency was associated with the multiplicity of infection. When the multiplicity of infection was 150, the transfection efficiency was 80.8%. MTT results showed that when the multiplicity of infection was 200, the cel growth was inhibited remarkably. These findings indicate that adenovirus-mediated kalikrein 1 can be successfuly transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels with the optimal multiplicity of infection=150.

In order to optimize the ~(18)O labeling method, two key aspects, peptide dispersion and trypsin deac tivation were discussed o The addition of Rapigest SF in H_2~('8)O and microwave heating enhanced labeling efficiency of α-casein digested peptides(~(18)O/~(16)O) ratio >99%).Chemical modification with tris(2-carboxyeth yl) phosphine (TCEP) and iodoacetamide (IAA) resulted in trypsin deactivated completely.No significant back-exchange from ~(18)O to ~(16)O was observed after labeling in 6 days.The experiment result with peptide mixture from showed that the improved method could be effectively used to label protein and peptide.

Objective To investigate the situation of admission nursing evaluation on elderly patients of geriatrics departments in several Shanghai comprehensive hospitals, and the results will be the base for designing elderly patient′s comprehensive admission nursing evaluation form. Methods 41 nurse managers of geriatrics department in Shanghai comprehensive hospitals were selected as research object. Self-designed questionnaire included general data, elderly patient admission nursing evaluation content and the importance of each item. Results The effective recovery rate was 97.56%(40/41). 98%(39/40) hospitals considered that elderly patients need to have a comprehensive assessment according to the elderly characteristics, only 18%(7/40) hospitals used the special nursing evaluation form for elderly patients. The score of importance of five dimensions were as follows: geriatric syndromes or problems scored (4.64 ± 0.38), physical function assessment scored (4.60 ± 0.46), physiological function assessment scored (4.53 ± 0.45), mental and psychological assessment scored (4.10 ± 0.57) and social assessment scored (4.07±0.52). The score of importance of 29 items were as follows:fall assessment scored (4.90±0.30), pressure ulcer assessment scored (4.85 ± 0.36), activities of daily living scored (4.75 ± 0.44), urinary incontinence assessment scored (4.70 ± 0.52), pain assessment scored (4.70 ± 0.46). Conclusions It is of great significance to carry on the comprehensive admission nursing evaluation for the elderly patients, which needs to be valued and strengthened.

Peritumoral edema (PTE) of the metastasis tumor of brain (MTB) refers to the abnormal increase of moisture in the surrounding cerebral parenchyma of the brain tumor. The mechanism of PTE occurrence of MTB is complicated, and the influencing factors are diverse. PTE is one of the key factors that affect patient survival and cure. Researchers from China and overseas believe that it may be related to the expression of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or VEGF receptor, aquaporin-4 (AQP-4), matrix metalloproteinase-9, interleukin-6, hypoxia inducible factor-1a, and other molecular biology factors. Studies of these molecular biologi-cal factors provide objective scientific evidence for the prevention, control, monitoring, treatment, and prognosis of PTE of metasta-sized brain tumor. In addition to the traditional dehydration therapy of PTE, the use of PTE-related molecular biological factors pro-vides a new approach for the treatment. AQP-4 agonists or antagonists and VEGF receptor antagonists also have good therapeutic poten-tials. In this paper, the authors reviewed the PTE-related molecular biological factors of MTB.

Objective To compare the noxious stimulations induced by insertion of Proseai laryngeal mask airway(PLMA)and classic laryngeal mask airway(CLMA)in children.Methods Forty-seven ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ children,aged 3-12 yr and undergoing surgery under general anesthesia,were randomly divided into 2 groups:PLMA group(group P,n =23)and CLMA group(group C,n =24).General anesthesia was induced with target-controlled infusion(TCI)of propofol.When the effect-site concentration of propofol was equal to the plasma concentration predetermined.PLMA or CLMA insertion was attempted.The target plasma concentration of propofol was predetermined according to Dixon's up-down method,with 0.2 μg/ml as a step size.The initial target plasma concentration of propofol was 6 μg/ml and 4.4 μg/ml for groups P and C,respectively.The preedetermined target plasma concentration of propofol and the satisfaction of insertion conditions for each child were recorded.Results The 50% effective concentration(EC50)of propofol to achieve satisfied condition of PLMA and CLMA insertion were 5.87(95% CI,5.62-6.11)and 4.53(95% C1,4.38-4.69)μg/nl,respectively,and the difference was significant(P < 0.01).Conclusion The noxious stimulation induced by insertion of PLMA in children aged 3-12 years is stronger than that of CLMA.

Objective To observe the changes of the peripheral blood T helper (Th)17 cells/regulatory T cells (Treg) ratio in patients with anti‐tuberculosis drug‐induced liver injury ,and to explore the relationship between Th17/Treg ratio and liver function . Methods Ninety inpatients with the diagnosis of secondary pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) from Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical College from Feb .2013 to Mar .2015 were included in this study .All these patients had normal base line liver function .After 2 weeks of anti‐TB chemotherapy ,21 patients with alanine transaminase (ALT) and/or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≥2 × upper limit of normal (ULN) were defined as TB with liver injure group ,the other 69 patients with ALT and/or AST<2 × ULN were defined as TB with non‐liver injured group .Before treatment and two weeks after anti‐TB therapy ,the peripheral blood Th17/Treg ratios and liver functions of all patients in both groups were detected in order to compare the changes of Th17/Treg ratios pre and post anti‐TB chemotherapy and to explore the relationship between Th17/Treg ratio and ALT/AST levels .Student′s t test was used for statistical analysis ,and Pearson correlation analysis was used for correlation test .Results Before treatment ,there was no statistical significance of Th17 ,Treg and Th17/Treg ratio between groups (P> 0 .05) .The Th17 levels in TB with liver injured group ([2 .522 ± 0 .388]/mL vs [2 .075 ± 0 .369]/mL ,t=3 .633 ,P<0 .01) and TB with non‐liver injured group ([2 .326 ± 0 .348]/mL vs [1 .929 ± 0 .402]/mL ,t= 6 .468 , P< 0 .01) ,and Th17/Treg ratios in both groups(0.618±0.104vs0.489±0.107,t=3.553,P<0.01 ;0.554±0.108vs0.450±0.098,t=6 .353 ,P<0 .01) were all increased after anti‐TB chemotherapy ,with statistically significant differences . However ,there was no statistical significance of Treg levels pre and post anti‐treatment in both groups (both P>0 .05) .The Th17 level and Th17/Treg ratio in TB with liver injured group were significantly higher than those in TB with non‐liver injured group (t= 2 .203 , P< 0 .05 and t= 2 .345 , P< 0 .05 , respectively) .In liver injured group ,the Th17/Treg ratio was positively correlated with ALT level (r=0 .849 ,P=0 .044) ,but not with AST level (P>0 .05) .Conclusion The changes of Th17/Treg ratio are related with anti‐TB drug‐induced liver injury in patients with secondary pulmonary tuberculosis .
