In this paper, according to the requirement of the focused sound field measurement, a focused sound field measurement system was established based on the LabVIEW virtual instrument platform. The system can automatically search the focus position of the sound field, and adjust the scanning path according to the size of the focal region. Three-dimensional sound field scanning time reduced from 888 hours in uniform step to 9.25 hours in variable step. The efficiency of the focused sound field measurement was improved. There is a certain deviation between measurement results and theoretical calculation results. Focal plane--6 dB width difference rate was 3.691%, the beam axis--6 dB length differences rate was 12.937%.

MicroRNAs are endogenously expressed non-coding RNAs, which are composed of approximately 18 nucleotides to 25 nucleotides. Mature microRNAs regulate gene expression by base pairing with the 3'-untranslated region of target mRNAs. These mature microRNAs can degrade target mRNAs or inhibit translation. This process is a type of post-transcriptional regulation of gene ex-pression. Studies have shown that microRNAs are important in physiological and pathological processes, such as cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and cell death. This article provides an overview of the function of microRNAs in the regulation of macrophages.

Objective To explore the role of uncoupling protein 2 ( UCP2) in the development of hepatic fibrosis and its molecular mechanism .Methods The CCl4-induced liver fibrosis rat model in vivo was established to observe the pathological changes of rat livers .The expression levels of UCP2 and p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) were detected by using the techniques of Western blotting , Real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry .The hepatic stellate cells ( HSC) were stimulated by CCl 4 and UCP2-specific inhibitor Genipin to mimic liver fibrosis in vitro.The expression levels of UCP2 and p38MAPK were determined by using Western blotting .Results We found that UCP2 and α-SMA expression levels increased significantly (P <0.05, n =10) in the liver of rats with CCl4-induced liver fibrosis when compared with that of the normal control rats in vivo.Similarly, the expression levels of UCP2 and p38 MAPK were up regulated (P <0.05, n=6) in CCl4-treated HSC cells in vitro.However, the expressions of UCP2 and p38 MAPK were down regulated (P <0.05, n=6) in genipin-treated HSC cells in vitro.Conclusion UCP2 is involved in liver fibrosis, and probably contributed to the activation and proliferation of hepatic stellate cells .

Objectives To inspect the levels of peripheral blood leukocyte and lymphocyte functionassociated antigen-1(LFA-1)expression in renaI allograft recipients before and after renal transplantation.Methods Using monoclonal antibody-flow cytometer fluorescence technique,the expression of LFA-1 in lymphocytes of 33 patients with renal transplantation was detected at 1 day before operation and 3,6,9,15 days after operation by flow cytometric immunological technique,Results The level of LFA-1 expression after transplantation was significantly decreased and maintained at a low level.and ascended suddenly during the course of graft rejection.The level of LFA-1 expression in rejection was obviously higher than in non-rejection and after the eontrollring of rejection.Conclusions LFA-1 might Dlay an important role in graft rejection.Monitoring of the expression of LFA-1 is helpful for the diagnosis of the graft rejection.

ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) on blocking the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) induced by acid aspiration. MethodsTwenty new Zealand rabbits were used. Dilute HCl was instilled into right bronchus of the rabbits. The rabbits were then divided randomly into two groups: injury group and treatment group. In injury group ( n = 10) rabbits received no treatment except mechanical ventilation. In treatment group ( n = 10) immediately after acid instillation the rabbits received an intravenous bolus of PGE1 followed by a continuous infusion. Blood gas, airway pressure and dynamic and static compliance were measured before and after acid instillation. Blood samples were taken from artery for determination of 6-k-PGF1α, TXB2, NO2-/NO3- and ET-1. The animals were killed and the wet/dry lung weight (W/D) ratio and total protein of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) of right lung were measured. Microscopic examination of the lung was done. ResultsIn treatment group PaO2 was significantly higher than that in injury group after acid instillation. Plasma 6-k-PGF1α and NO2-/NO3- levels were significantly higher in treatment group while plasma TXB2 and ET-1 levels were significantly lower. W/D ratio and TP of BALF of right lung were significantly lower in treatment group. The inflammatory changes were diffuse in injury group while in treatment group they were localized and less severe. Conclusions PGE1 can lessen severity of ARDS induced by acid aspiration. It may protect pulmonary vascular endothelial cells through maintaining the balance between PGI2 and TXA2 and that between NO and ET-1 .
