Leukoregulin is an immunologic hormone whose anticancer action includethe inhibition of cellular proliferation and cytolysis of tumor cells eitherdirectly or indirectly by enhancing the tumor cell's susceptibility to dest-ruction mediated by natural killer cells.The optimal condition for the ind-uction of leukoregulin Were studied by using orthogonal experimental design.The optimal concentration is 1x10~7/ml for human spleen cells;3.1?g/mlfor phytohemagglutinin(PHA);12.5ng/ml for 12-0-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate;15% for boyin serum.Leukoregulin activity prepared by 70 hincubation is maximum,the experiment also confirmed that the inducingleukoregulin effect of PHA-PⅢis significantly high.

AIM: To elucidate the relations among proadrenomedullin N terminal 20 peptide (PAMP), adrenomedullin(ADM) and angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ). METHODS: Tissue slices of rat aorta were incubated as follows: (I) increasing concentrations of Ang Ⅱ (10-9, 10-8, 10-) mol/L); (Ⅱ) increasing concentrations of PAMP(10-9, 10-8, 10-)mol/L). The tissue and incubation concentrations of PAMP, ADM and Ang Ⅱ were measured by the radioimmunoassay (RIA). RESULTS: The tissue and incubation concentrations of PAMP and ADM were concentration - dependently increased by Ang Ⅱ, but the tissue and incubation concentrations of Ang Ⅱ can not effected by PAMP. CONCLUSION: AngⅡ markedly stimulate the release of ADM and PAMP. It may be one of the factors which regu- late the synthesis and release of ADM and PAMP. The regulation may play an important role in homastasis regulation of cardiovascular system.

As the integration of human parasitology and medical microbiology curriculum, pathogen biology, although constructed and developed about 20-years, didn't realize the true integration of the two disciplines. Beyond that, it was also faced with numerous difficulties such severe compression of human par-asitology class, lack of teaching materials to achieve the true meaning of integration, difficulty to cultivate teachers and so on. The organ-system based learning (OBL) curriculum model may provide new strategies for the dilemma, to be resolved through the following channels: Rearranging the curriculum and teaching materials based on the classification of pathogenic organism parasitic or invasive organs; Corresponding training in microbiology and parasitology teaching by teachers continuous realization, while highlighting the professional teaching level of highly qualified teachers in both courses.

Objective To explore the effect of low frequency vibration (LFV) on osteogenesis of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) and OPG mRNA,RANKL mRNA expression.MethodsBMSCs from 10-week-old female SD rats were cultured and randomly divided into 2 groups:control group and vibration group.The BMSCs of vibration group was given LVF with 20 Hz,0.25 g,2 times/d,10 min/time for 7 days.The LFV was given from the eleventh day after BMSCs cultured.The osteogenesis and OPG mRNA,RANKL mRNA of all BMSCs in two group were tested at the end of LFV.ResultsCompared to the control groups,the BMSCs growth and proliferation improved in vibration group,but the alkaline phosphatase (ALP)activity and the number of mineral nodule did not changed significantly.The OPG mRNA elevated in vibration group,while the RANKL mRNA showed no change.ConclusionThe LFV may increase the growth and proliferation of BMSCs,which is attributed to the elevated OPG gene expression.The osteogenesis improved no significance,which may be associated with the too short vibration time.

Objective To investigate the occurrence of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)and catheter-related infection in a general intensive care unit(GICU),so as to strengthen the management.Methods Targeted monitor method was adopted,monitor scheme was established ,personal monitor contents and forms were designed,hospi-talized GICU patients were investigated prospectively between May 2012 and May 2013,and surveyed data were an-alyzed.Results A total of 868 patients were investigated,65 times (7.49%)of HAI occurred;infection rate per day was 21.49‰,adjust infection rate per day was 7.26‰.Infection rate of ventilator-associated pneumonia ,catheter-associated urinary tract infection ,and central venous catheter-related bloodstream infection per day was 23.91‰,3.46‰,and 6.12‰,respectively;the main infection site was respiratory tract (67.69%).Sixty-five isolates of pathogens were detec-ted,81.54%(n=53)of pathogens were gram-negative bacilli,and with multidrug resistance.Conclusion HAI rate is high in GICU ,the use of various types of catheters is an important factor for HAI in GICU patients.Targeted mo-nitoring on ICU is a scientific and effective method ,it can timely reflect the weak links of infection control practice and promote HAI control .

It is now well established that inflammation plays an important role in the development of numerous chronic metabolic diseases including insulin resistance (IR) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Skeletal muscle is responsible for 75% of total insulin-dependent glucose uptake; consequently, skeletal muscle IR is considered to be the primary defect of systemic IR development. Our pre- vious study has shown that rutaecarpine (Rut) can benefit blood lipid profile, mitigate inflammation, and improve kidney, liver, pan- creas pathology status of T2DM rats. However, the effects of Rut on inflammatory cytokines in the development of IR-skeletal muscle cells have not been studied. Thus, our objective was to investigate effects of Rut on inflammatory cytokines interleukiri (IL)-1, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in insulin resistant primary skeletal muscle cells (IR-PSMC). Primary cultures of skeletal muscle cells were prepared from 5 neonate SD rats, and the primary rat skeletal muscle cells were identified by cell morphology, effect of ru- taecarpine on cell proliferation by MTT assay. IR-PSMC cells were induced by palmitic acid (PA), the glucose concentration was measured by glucose oxidase and peroxidase (GOD-POD) method. The effects of Rut on inflammatory cytokines IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α in IR-PSMC cells were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit. The results show that the primary skeletal muscle cells from neonatal rat cultured for 2-4 days, parallel alignment regularly, and cultured for 7 days, cells fused and myotube formed. It was shown that Rut in concentration 0-180. 0 μmol x L(-1) possessed no cytotoxic effect towards cultured primary skeletal muscle cells. However, after 24 h exposure to 0.6 mmol x L(-1) PA, primary skeletal muscle cells were able to induce a state of insulin resistance. The results obtained indicated significant decrease (P < 0.05 to P < 0.001) IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α production by cultured IR-PSMC cells when incubating 24 hours with Rut, beginning from 20 to 180.0 μmol x L(-1). IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α in the Rut treated groups were dose-dependently decreased compared with that in the IR-PSMC control group. Our results demonstrated that the Rut promoted glucose consumption and improved insulin resistance possibly through suppression of inflammatory cytokines in the IR-PSMC cells.
