Optical coherency tomography (OCT) is one of the powerful optical imaging tools that allows cross-sectional tomography of the microstructure in living subjects with high resolution. With the rapid development of OCT and a wide range of preclinical and clinical tumor imaging, it provides profound insights into the complex physiological, cellular and molecular behaviors of tumors. Preclinical OCT has elucidated many inscrutable aspects of tumor biology, while clinical applications of OCT are revolutionizing diagnosis and therapies. As a new noninvasive optical imaging technique, OCT can realize the intraoperative imaging of tumor and provide meaningful image data, which will provide great help for the diagnosis, classification and boundary determination of tumor diseases in the future.

Xiyanping is used to treat infectious diseases with antibiotics in clinic. The aim of this study is to investigate the mechanism of Xiyanping through studying the effect of the combination of Xiyanping with Cefazolin on the chemotaxis and phagocytic function of peripheral blood neutrophils in mice. Ten healthy mice were in control group. Forty healthy mice in experimental group were infected with staphylococcus aureus, and were randomly divided further into four groups, i. e. model group, Xiyanping group, Cefazolin group and combination group (Xiyanping with Cefazolin). Mice in the control group and model group were given normal saline (NS) through abdomen while those in other groups were given Xiyanping, Cefazolin, and Xiyanping with Cefazolin, respectively. The chemotaxis of peripheral blood neutrophils was detected with the transwell method, and the phagocytic function of peripheral blood neutrophils was analyzed with flow cytometry (FCM). In the present study, there was no significance on the chemotactic index of peripheral blood neutrophils in all the groups (P > 0.05). The actual phagocytotic rate and index of peripheral blood neutrophils in the blank group, Xiyanping group, and the combination group were significantly higher than those of the model group and Cefazolin group (P < 0.05). However, those were not significant in the blank group, Xiyanping group, and the combination group (P > 0.05) or between the model group and Cefazolin group (P> 0.05). Our results suggested the combination of Xiyanping and Cefazolin could enhance the therapeutic effect by improving the phagocytic function of peripheral blood neutrophils.

Objective To study the bacterial types and their drug resistance in intra-abdominal infections after pancreatic surgery,and to evaluate the appropriate treatment measures.Methods 113 patients who underwent pancreatic surgery from Jan 2012 to Dec 2012 in our hospital were included into this study.The drainage liquid from the surgical sites were collected for bacterial culture and drug susceptibility tests.Results The incidence of intra-abdominal infections was 39.8% (45/113).There were 54 pathogenic strains of bacteria isolated,including 49 strains of gram-negative bacteria (90.7%),4 strains of gram-positive bacteria (7.4%),and 1 strain of fungus (1.9%).The top three pathogens were Pseudomonas aeruginosa (50.0%),Acinetobacter baumannii (14.8%) and Singular deformation bacteria (1 1.1%).Most gram-negative bacteria were sensitive to Polymyxin B and Aminoglycoside antibiotics (> 70%),but they were resistant to Imipenem and Cephalosporin which were commonly administered.Pancreatic fistula was closely related to intra-abdominal infections.Concluusions A gram-negative bacteria,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,was the predominant organism in intra-abdominal infections after pancreatic surgery in our hospital.The situation of drug-resistance was still severe.More effective measures should be taken to prevent growth of resistant strains such as using antibiotics according to drug sensitivity and avoiding empirical single use of broad-spectrum antibiotics.Pancreatic fistula commonly led to intra-abdominal infections.

A cDNA library was constructed from glands of wild Buthus martensii Karsch scorpion.A new sodium channel long-chain toxin BmkNaTx12 was identified by sequence alignment,and its full-length cDNA sequence was cloned.Sequence alignment showed that the sequence of BmkNaTx12 had high structural similarity with the β-toxin Cn12 from Mexican Centruroides noxius scorpion.The predicted structure of BmkNaTx12 was obtained by homologous model construction and the highest scoring model was selected.The protein structure was found to be stable at 300 ns by molecular dynamics optimization,and fluctuations at amino acids 20,35,and 52 are most like-ly due to the location of these amino acids in the loop region.Then,an expression system of recombinant BmkNaTx12-Fc fusion protein was constructed.The optimal expression time of recombinant protein was determined by Western blot and the fusion protein was successfully expressed in HEK293 cells.The purity of recombinant fusion protein which was obtained by protein A affinity chromatography was up to 95% by SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis and HPLC.In addition,the whole-cell patch-clamp assay results suggest that 1 μmoL/L BmkNaTx12-Fc can increase 20% Nav1.7 peak current.These results laid a foundation for the further study of biological function.

This study was aimed to investigate the chemical constituents from the leaves of Vitex negundovar. cannabifolia. Column chromatography including silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, ODS, and semi-preparative HPLC were used to separate and purify the chemical constituents, and the structures were elucidated on the basis of physicochemical properties, MS and NMR spectroscopic data. As a result, 11 compounds were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of V. negundo var. cannabifolia, and identified as apigenin (1), penduletin (2), chrysosplenol-D (3), quercetin (4), 1,4-dihydroxy-3R,5R-dicaffeoyloxy cyclohexane carboxylic acid (5), maeranthoin F (6), capsidiol (7), caryolandiol (8), β-sitosterol (9), p-hydroxybenzonic acid (10), and β-daucosterin (11). It was concluded that compounds 5 8were firstly isolated from the plants of Vitex genus, and compounds 1 and 4 were isolated from V. negundovar. cannabifolia for the first time.
