Objective To investigate the correlation between serum levels of 25 hydroxyvitamin D and immunoglobulin E(IgE)in adults.Methods There were 1 969 participants over the age of 19 were enrolled in this studied,serum total IgE,dermatophagoides farinae(Df)-specific IgE,and serum 25(OH)D levels were analyzed.Other variables included sex,age,body mass index,smoking history,and economic status were collected.Adjusted regression analysis was used to examine the independent association of 25(OH)D with serum IgE levels.Results The average serum 25(OH)D level of 1 969 patients was(18.0±6.5)μg/L,the prevalence of asthma,allergic rhinitis,and atopic dermatitis were 15.2％(299/1 969),2.8％(63/1 969)and 3.0％(68/1 969)respectively,however,there was no significant difference in serum 25(OH)D levels in patients with allergic rhinitis.All subjects were divided into four groups according to the serum 25(OH)D level: Q1:less than and equal to 13.4 μg/L,Q2:more then and equal to 13.4 μg/L but less then and equal to 17.0 μg/L,Q3: more then and equal to 17.0 μg/L but less then and equal to 21.7 μg/L,and Q4: more than and equal to 21.8 μg/L.The median TIgE level increased with higher quartiles in the Kruskal-Wallis test.The prevalence of Df in Q1,Q2,Q3,Q4 group were 39.8％,33.2％,38.7％and 43.1％,respectively.Linear regression analysis indicated that 25(OH)D levels were positively correlated with lgTIgE(regression coefficient:0.011,95％CI 0.001-0.021),25(OH)D in male patients with dust mite allergy was positively correlated with lgTIgE(regression coefficient:0.026,95％CI 0.010-0.043).There was no significant correlation between 25(OH)D and lgTIgE in the other groups.Conclusion Adult serum 25(OH)D levels is positively correlated with total IgE levels.

Objective To investigate the effect of propofol on ketamine-induced cognitive dysfunction and neuronal apoptosis in hippocampus in aged rats. Methods Thirty-two male SD rats aged 18-24 months weighing 380-470 g were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n = 8 each) :control group (group C);propofol group (group P);ketamine group (group K) and propofol + ketamine group (group PK). Propofol 30 mg·kg-1·h-1 or/and ketamine 40 mg· kg-1·h-1 were infused for 2 h once a day for 7 consecutive days. After the last day of drug administration cognitive function was assessed using Morris water maze (escape latency and the number of animals' swimming across the platform). The animals were sncrificed after water naze test and their hippocampi were removed for determination of neuronal apoptosis (by TUNEL) and caspase-3 expression (by immuno-histochemistry) in hippocampal CA1 region. Results There was no significant difference in escape latency and the number of the animals,swimming across the platform, the neuronal apoptotic rate (the number of apoptotic neurons/the number of total neurons) and caspase-3 expression between group C and P. In group K and PK the escape latency was prolonged,the number of animals' swimming across the platform was decreased, neuronal apoptotic rate increased and the caspase-3 expression up-regulated as compared with group C. The ketamine-induced changes were significantly attenuated by coadministration of propofol in group PK. Conclusion Coadministration of propofol can ameliorate ketamine-induced cognitive dysfunction and hippocampal neuronal apoptosis.

Objective To construct recombinant plasmids containing HPV18E7 gene ,and explore the optimization condition of its expression in Escherichia coli .Methods The genomic DNA extracted from HeLa cell line which served as a template to the HPV18 E7 gene was amplified using PCR method ;and the amplified product of HPV18E7 gene was connected to the pET-32a(+ ) vector ,which composed the pET-32a(+ )-HPV18E7 recombinant plasmid ;the positive recombinant plasmids were transformed into BL21-DE3-pLysS competent cells and the optimized expression condition was explored in order to obtain a large amount of HPV18E7 oncogenic protein .Results The fragment length of PCR products of HeLa cell genomic DNA was consistent with that of HPV18 E7 gene .In LB medium ,the expression level of the target protein was not high under such conditions as different concentra-tion of IPTG and lactose ,different temperatures and different induction starting amount .Therefore the ZYM-5052 auto-induction medium was tried in this experiment ,and the expression amount of the fusion protein was much higher than that induced with IPTG and lactose .Conclusion The amount of HPV18E7 fusion protein in ZYM-5052 automatic induction medium is much higher than that induced with IPTG and lactose .

Aim To investigate the protective effects of total triterpenoid from Prunella vulgaris L. ( TTP) on CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis in rats and its mecha-nism. Methods Rat liver fibrosis was induced by 50% CCl4 twice a week for 12 weeks. From the 5th week, all the therapeutic groups were treated with the TTP(25, 50, 100 mg·kg-1 ) and the colchicine (0. 1 mg· kg-1 ) respectively once a day for 8 weeks. At the end of the twelfth week, the levels of ALT, AST, HA, PCⅢ, CⅣ, MDA, SOD, GSH-Px, Hyp were measured . HE and Masson staining were used to evalu-late the degree of hepatic fibrosis. The mRNA expres-sion ofα-SMA, procollagen I, Smad2, Smad3, Smad7 in liver was detected by RT-PCR, and the p-ERK pro-tein expression was evaluated by Western blot. Results Compared with the model group, TTP(25, 50, 100 mg·kg-1 ) not only reduced serum content of ALT, AST, HA, PCⅢ, CⅣand Hyp, MDA in liver tissue, improved the morphologic changes of hepatic fibrosis, but also increased SOD and GSH-Px activity. Moreo-ver, it decreased the α-SMA, procollagen I, Smad2, Smad3 mRNA expression and increased Smad7 mRNA expression in liver tissues obviously. Furthermore, TTP reduced the protein expression of p-ERK. Conclusions TTP can protect rats from CCl4-induced liver fibro-sis. The mechanism of this process may involve inhibi-ting the expression of p-ERK and interference with TGF-β1/Smad signal transduction pathway.

BACKGROUND:To establish a tumor-bearing animal model of the head and neck is of clinical significance for further studying pathogenesis and transfer mechanisms and for actively finding an effective diagnosis and therapeutic regimen. OBJECTIVE:To compare the growth, lymphatic metastasis and distant metastasis characteristics of head and neck tumors in animals. METHODS:VX2 tumor cel lines were resuscitated and passaged to establish tumor-bearing rabbit models. Under anesthesia, the tumor was stripped from the tumor-bearing site to make tumor cel suspension. Then, thecel suspension was injected into the thigh muscle of rabbits and then passaged 2 weeks later. Tumor samples were harvested from the thigh of passage rabbits to make VX2 tumor cel suspension that was injected into the ear, tongue and nasopharynx of rabbits to make a VX2 tumor model of the head and neck in the rabbit. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The three groups of rabbits had significant differences in spirit, diet, activity and so on. Rabbits with tumor xenograft of the ear were significantly better than those with tumor xenograft of the tongue and nasopharynx. At 2 weeks after injection of VX2 tumor cel suspension, the VX2 tumor models of the head and neck were made successfuly in rabbits, and the tumor formation rate was 100% (15/15) at the ear, 93% (14/15) at the tongue and nasopharynx. VX2 tumors at different sites experienced rapid growth period, central necrosis period, surface ulceration period, and the life cycle was about 4-6 weeks. Lymph node metastasis in head and neck and pulmonary metastasis were found in the al three groups. Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that VX2 tumor tissues and metastatic lymph nodes were confirmed as moderately to poorly differentiated squamous cel carcinoma. These findings indicate that tumor-bearing rabbit models of the head and neck established by VX2 cel suspension are characterized by short modeling cycle, good stability, easy to repeat, high tumor formation rate and simple operation. VX2 tumors in the different sites of the head and neck of rabbits have different characteristics, so we can choose the different implanting sites according to the different research purposes.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of acupuncture on Parkison disease (PD) with systematic review in view of evidence-based medicine (EBM).Methods Articles on clinical effect of acupuncture on Parkinson disease published from the database-established year to May of 2017 we searched from China National Knowledge Internet (CNKI),Wanfang,VIP,Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM),PubMed,and Cochrane Library databases without language limitation.Quality evaluation and data extraction were carried out according to the tool for assessing risk of bias provided by the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions (Version 5.1.0).All statistical analyses were performed with Reviewer Manager Software (Version 5.3;Cochrane Collaboration,Oxford,UK).Assessments were performed with the total effective rate,the scores of each scale (the unified Parkinson disease rating scales-UPDRS and the Webster scale),and the improvement of different clinical manifestation.Results In all,12 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) met our inclusion criterion,a total of 892 patients,including 468 cases in the experimental group (acupunctuer with or without medicine) and 424 cases in the control group (medicine only).Meta-analysis showed favorable results for the experimental group compared to control group in the total effective rate,the total scales of UPDRS and the modified Webster scale [OR =2.16,95％ CI (1.57,2.97),P＜0.01;OR =7.20,95％ CI(4.02,10.37),P＜0.01;OR=3.33,95％ CI(2.13,4.53),P ＜0.01].The experimental group was effective in relieving partial symptoms of PD such as rigidity,postural,gait,bradykinesia compared to the control group,while there was no significant difference in tremor at rest and sit-stand up movements (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Acupuncture had certain clinical effect on Parkinson disease,it can relieve the clinical symptoms of Parkinson disease to some extent,and postpone the progression of PD,which improves the quality of life of PD patients.Acupuncture can be recommended as a combination treatment for Parkinson disease.
