Objective Toexplore the effect of Bcl2 and Ercc1 gene on apoptosis by RNA interference of Bcl2 and Ercc1 gene expression in non-small cell lung cancer cell line. Methods shRNA targeting Bcl2 and Ercc1 gene were cloned into vector to construct recombinant adenovirus plasmids which were transfected into HEK293 cells. High titer adenovirus was obtained after package and amplification. H460 cells were infected with the adenovirus and apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry. Results The results of restriction endonuclease digestion showed that recombinantadenovirus vector adsiBcl2-Ercc1 was successfully constructed. The positive 1 200 bp amplification bands could be seen in PCR analysis , and the titer of the adenovirus was 5 × 1011/mL. The apoptosis rate of AdsiBcl2-Ercc1 was higher than that of the two single silenced gene groups. Conclusions The recombinant plasmids and recombinant adenovirus were successfully constructed. Silencing of Bcl2 and Ercc1 through shRNA promotes the apoptosisin lung cancer cells.

Aplastic anemia is an acquired bone marrow failure syndrome,characterized by an empty bone marrow,pancytopenia,as well as anemia,bleeding,infection syndrome.The pathogenesis of aplastic anemia has not yet been completely clear.Some of the proposed causes include hematopoietic stem/ progenitor cell deficiency,immune disorders,and abnormalities in the hematopoietic microenvironment.In recent years,further clinical and experimental studies have accumulated to recognize the pathogenesis of aplastic anemia.

Influenza A (H1N1) is an acute and zoonotic respiratory infectious illness, the prevention and treatment is very important in children as vulnerable groups.There are two mainly categories: neuraminidase inhibitors and M_2 inhibitors.The paper summarizes the characteristics of H1N1 and the latest progress in drug treatment and immunization prevention, as well as traditional medicine treatment,in order to improve public awareness of H1N1.

Objective To study the effects of calcitonin gene related peptide(CGRP) and nerve growth factor(NGF) on the expression of(c-junmRNA) and protein in striate cortex of rats with transient global cerebral ischmia/reperfusion. Methods In situ hybridization,immunohistochemistry and microscope image analysis were used. Results The expression of c-jun mRNA in ischemia/reperfusion(I/R) group was increased as compared with sham group(P

Objective To explore the effect of collaborative health education by both doctors and nurses on parturition?Methods One hundred and sixty primiparas at uterogestation undergoing analgesic parturition were assigned equally into the control and observation groups according to their admission sequence? The control group received routine nursing intervention and the observation group the collaborative health education by both doctors and nurses? The two groups were compared in terms of analgesic effect,vaginal delivery and post-partum hemorrhage? Result The rates of analgesic delivery and vaginal delivery in the observation group were significantly higher and the volume of postpartum hemorrhage was significantly smaller than those of the control group(all P < 0?05)?Conclusion The collaborative health education may be effective in alleviating mental stress of the preimiparas,enhancing the analgesic effect,increasing the rate of vaginal delivery and decreasing the volume of postpartum hemorrhage?

Carcino-embryonic antigen related cellular adhesion molecule 1(CEACAM1),used to be called CD66a, biliar glyeoprotein(BGP) or C-CAM,is a glucoprotein expressed on the surface of cells, a member of the carcino-embryonic antigen family(CEA) and an adhesion molecule of immunoglobulin superfamily. It is widely expressed on the epithelial cells and vascular endothelial cells.CEACAM1 inhibits tumor growth and epithelial cell proliferation, induces apoptosis of epithelial cells, inhibits activation and proliferation of T lymphocytes, stimulates proliferation of B lymphocytes, inhibits the cytotoxic effects of T cells and NK cells, delays apoptosis of granulocytes and monocytes, inhibits the activity of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, stimulates invasion of tumor cells and motility of endothelial cells, promotes blood vessel angiogenesis, and modulates vascular remodeling, so it has many important biological functions.

Objective To study the long-term outcome of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in drug refractory heart failure patients through retrospective analysis and to ivestigate the underline reasons of unsuccessful cases in the study. Methods The study comprised a total of 48 patients (mean age 70?18.5 years; 83% male) with New York Heart Association class Ⅲ (86%) or class Ⅳ (14%) heart failure and LVEF≤35%. All patients fulfilled the standard CRT indications with the QRS duration ≥130 and LVEDd≥60 mm. Only one of the 48 patients was implanted with a combination of automatic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator and CRT device. The outcome of CRT was evaluated in terms of QRS duration, LVEF through echocardiography, 6 minute hall walk and tissue doppler echocardiography. Results Within a mean clinical follow-up of 29.0?7.5 month, the QRS duration was significantly shortened by biventricular pacing compared with right ventricular or left ventricular pacing. [(169?26) ms vs (188?40) ms and (222?34) ms vs (212?42) ms, respectively]. The NYHA functional class was improved from class Ⅲ-Ⅳ before the operation to class Ⅰ-Ⅱ at 1 week and 1 month during the follow up period. LVEF increased gradually from (28.30?3.94)% to (37.80?3.98)% after one week and increased to (42.99?7.87)% at the end of the follow-up. There was significant difference in LVEF before and 1 week after the operation (P

Objective To explore the clinical significance of detection of IL-17 and peripheral blood eosinophil(EOS) count in whee-zing children under 5 years old.Methods Fifty-three children with recurrent wheezing under 5 years old had been randomly enrolled including 43 boys and 10 girls.They were divided into 2 groups :wheezing group Ⅰ,in which,the patients with atopic high risks(n=27);whee-zing group Ⅱ,in which,the patients without atopic high risks(n=26).Children without infectious diseases such as hernia and renal calculus had been enrolled randomly as control group(n=20),including 11 boys and 9 girls.After taking 3 mL venous blood and centrifuging of patients in 3 groups,the level of IL-17 in the serum was measured by double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,peripheral blood EOS count was performed in the meantime by means of eosine staining.Results The serum levels of IL-17 in wheezing groups [(1 469.315?978.300) ng?L-1,(263.340?131.800) ng?L-1]were significantly higher than that of control group[(36.478?2.000) ng?L-1](Pa0.05);serum IL-17 and peripheral blood EOS count had positive correlation(r=0.933,P

Rhubarb anthraquinone derivatives (AQs) have been documented to have both therapeutic and toxic effect on liver and kidney, leading to a complex puzzle to assess their benefits and risks. In this study, the tissue distributions of AQs in SD rats after orally administrated extracts of raw and prepared rhubarb were examined whether they undergo different uptake. The total rhubarb extract (14.49 g x kg(-1) of body weight per day od, counted on the quantity of crude material) was administrated orally for 12 weeks. The concentrations of the AQs in different tissues were quantified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The five major AQs, aloe-emodin, rhein, emodin, chrysophynol and physcion, could all be detected in the liver, kidney and spleen, while only rhein, aloe-emodin and emodin reached the quantitative limit. The tissue concentrations of AQs in raw rhubarb group were higher than that in steamed rhubarb group with rhein > emodin > aloe-emodin in the same tissue. On the whole, the tissue distribution of rhein was higher than that of emodin and aloe-emodin in liver, spleen and kidney. AQs could not be detected in those tissues after drug withdraw for 4 weeks, which suggested scarcely any accumulative toxicity of rhubarb. The result indicated that raw rhubarb had more tissue toxicity than steamed rhubarb and rhein may be one of the major poisonous ingredients. The results were concordant with the traditional Chinese medicine theory of toxicity-attenuating effect of processing.
