Objective To evaluate the ability of Vitek 2 Compact YST identification cards and pyrosequencing analysis for identifying the clinical isolates of yeast-like fungi.Methods Vitek 2 Compact YST identification cams and ITS1 region pyrosequencing analysis were used to identify the clinical isolates of yeast-like fungi at Jinan Military General Hospital in 2011.The strains which could not be identified to species by pyrosequencing analysis were identified again by the method of ITS1 region Sanger sequencing.The strains with inconsistent identified results by YST and pyrosequencing were identified again using API 20C.Results A total of 282 srtains were isolated from various clinical specimens for culturing in 2011.In addition to the three which could only be identified to similar species,other strains could be clearly identified to species by the method of ITS1 reverse pyrosequencing.Three strains which failed identified to species by pyrosequencing couldn't be distinguished fully by the method of Sanger sequencing.There were 7 strains unidentified,14 strains low discrimination(％ id ＜ 80％),and 6 strains misidentification using YST cams.The identification coincidence rate was 90.4％.The identification coincidence rates were various in different species of yeast-like fungi using YST cards.Conclusions The vast majority of clinical isolates of yeast-like fungi could be identified by ITS1 reverse pyrosequencing analysis.Vitek 2 Compact YST caRD basically meets the needs.But attention should be paid to the standard operating and regular internal quality control.For some rare species it is also needed to combine the source of specimen,colonies and characteristics to determine the identification results for the rare stains.

BACKGROUND: Eggembryosin is characterized by tonifying kidney and vital essence, invigorating qi and spleen, replenishing and activating blood, beautifying and nourishing face, and improving constitution of whole organism.OBJECTIVE: To observe the influence of eggembryosin on aging index,quantity of hemocytes and quality of immune organs of animal models, and analyze its effect on cosmetology, anti-senility and immunoloregulation.DESIGN: Randomized controlled observation.SETTING: Department of Pharmacology, Xinxiang Medical College.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in the Department of Pharmacology of Xinxiang Medical College between April 1998 and September 2002. A total of 80 Kunming mice of both sexes were selected in this study.METHODS: ① Effect of eggembryosin on activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in serum, content of malondialdehyde (MDA), lipofuscin and hydroxyproline respectively in serum, liver and tendon of tail of aging mice: Thirty mice were divided into 3 groups according to randomly lined table, including eggembryosin group, D-galactose model group and normal control group with 10 in each group. The former two groups were injected with D-galactose to copy aging models, and eggembryosin group were perfused with eggembryosin to measure activity of SOD in serum, content of MDA, lipofuscin (aging index) and hydroxyproline (elasric index of skin) respectively in serum, liver and tendon of tail. ② Effect of eggembryosin on mass of immune organs of mice with low immunological function: Thirty mice were selected and divided as the same way mentioned above. Mice in eggembryosin group were perfused with eggembryosin. In addition, those in eggembryosin group and cyclophosphamide (CAP) group were peritoneally injected with CAP to copy immunosuppression models and calculate index of thymus (spleen) (mg/g) = weight of thymus (spleen)/body. ③ Effect of eggembryosin on quantities of erythrocytes and hemoglobin of mice with blood deficiency: Twenty mice were divided into 2 groups according to randomly lined table, including eggembryosin group and normal control group with 10 in each group. Values of erythrocytes and hemoglobins of mice were measured before administration. Models in types of blood-deficiency blood-loss were copied with tail xsanguinations, and then, mice were perfused with eggembryosin and saline, respectively. Blood of mice were collected from their tails to measure values of erythrocytes and hemoglobin.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in serum, content of malondialdehyde (MDA), lipofuscin and hydroxyproline respectively in serum, liver and tendon of tail of aging mice, index of thymus, and spleen, contents of blood erythrocytes and hemoglobins.RESULTS: A total of 80 mice were involved in the final analysis without any loss. ① Activity of SOD in serum and contents of hydroxyproline in tendon of tail of mice in eggembryosin group were significantly higher than those of mice in D-galactose model group (P ＜ 0.01); content of MDA in serum and content of lipofuscin in liver of mice in eggembryosin group were significantly lower than those of mice in D-galactose model group (P＜ 0.01). ② Indexes of thymus and spleen of mice in eggembryosin group were higher than those of mice in CAP group (P ＜ 0.05-0.01). ③ Increasing values of blood erythrocytes and hemoglobin of mice in eggembryosin group were significantly higher than those of mice in normal control group (P ＜ 0.01).CONCLUSION: Eggembryosin taken orally can improveanti-oxidation of organism and elasticity of skin, increase quality of immune organs damaged by CAP and immunological function, and nourish the blood.

Objective To analyze the genotype and molecular epidemiology of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae.Method A total of 201 carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae were isolated from 14hospitals in 11 cities.The MICs of 14 antimicrobial drugs were detected using agar dilution method.Phenotypes of carbapenemases were screened using modified Hodge test and ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) test.Drug resistance genes were screened using PCR method.The strains carrying carbapenem resistance genes were confirmed by conjugation test.Homology analysis was carried out using pulsed-field gel electro-phoresis (PFGE) method and the epidemiological correlation is analyzed based on the Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) method in order to study the molecular epidemiology of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae.Results Fifty-three strains among 201 carbapenem-insensitive Enterobacteriaceae were detected positive carbapenem-resistant genes,among which included 33 Klebsiella pneumoniae,9 Citrobacter freundii,6 Escherichia coli and 5 Enterobacter cloacae.Among the 53 strains,43 were from Beijing,6 strains from Hangzhou,3 strains from Nanjing and one from Fuzhou.Resistance genes-harboring plasmids were successfully transferred from 28 of 53 strains to Escherichia coli EC600.The PFGE spectmm showed that 33 Klebsiella pneumoniae were classified into three types,9 Citrobacterfreundii classified into four types,5 Enterobacter cloacae classified into four types,while 6 Escherichia coli were the same type.Based on the results of MLST test,29 Klebsiella pneumoniae strains producing KPC-2 type carbapenemase were all ST11,while among the four Klebsiella pneumonia carrying IMP-4 carbapenem resistant gene,three strains were ST876,one was ST147.Conclusions Carbapenem-resistant genes were detected only in hospitals from Beijing,Hangzhou,Nanjing and Fuzhou,and type KPC-2 was the most common,followed by IMP-4 and IMP-8.High homology of resistant strains could be related to horizontal transfer of carbapenemase genes,which should cause great concern.

Purpurin is a common component ofRubia cordifolia L. The study on its molecular target was useful for elucidating the therapeutic material basis and action mechanism ofR. cordifolia. HT-29 cells were used in the cell culture. The highly expressed G Protein-coupled Receptor-35 (GPR35) agonist was used as target. The label-free optical biosensor cellular assay was used to investigate the agonist activity ofpurpurin at an endogenous receptor. The results showed thatpurpurin can cause DMR response in HT-29 cells. And the DMR response curve type was consistent with zaprinast. Its EC50 was 6.142± 0.189μmol·L-1. In addition,purpurinhad desensitization effect on GPR35 agonist zaprinast in HT-29 cells. GPR35 agonist ML145 blocked the DMR ofpurpurin. It was concluded thatpurpurinwas the GPR35 agonist.

Objective:To study the feasibility of 3-D reconstruction model in the observation of tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin(TCDD) effected palatal organ development of fetal mouse.Methods:Kunming mice treated 40 ug/kg TCDD by lavage on day 12.5 of pregnancy were used as in the experimental group,isodose corn oil treated in the control group.On day 13.5,14.5 and 15.5 of pregnancy heads of the fetal mice were taken out and fixed.Conventional paraffin serial sections of palatal organ were preparated and dyed by hematoxylin-eosin,images of the palatal organs were collected and photoshop treated,3-D reconstruction of the palatal organ was performed by 3D-DOCTOR software.Results:3-D reconstruction images showed that palatal organs moved from on both sides above the tongue and gradually closed and merged in the control group.In the experimental group,the palatal organs moved from on both sides above the tongue was later than control group,gradually closed,but not merged,formed cleft palate.Conclusion:3D-DOCTOR software reconstruction can be used for the study of the development process effected by TCDD in the pregnant mouse.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of decorin (DCN) on invasion of colorectal cancer cell line HCT116 in vitro.Methods Transwell assay was employed to detect the invasion of HCT116 cells;Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression of CD133 and TIMP-2 mRNA of HCT116 cells;Western blot method was used to detect the expression of HIF-1α, CD133 and TIMP-2 protein of HCT116 cells.Results 1) When the concentrations of DCN was 0, 1 and 3 mg/L, under the conditions of normal oxygen and hypoxia, the numbers of invasive cells were (241±46), (168±46), (51±17) fields in each well (P<0.01) and (207±61), (213±64), (156±54), (44±17) fields in each well (P<0.01).2) Under the normoxic conditions, the TIMP-2 mRNA and protein in HCT116 cells were increased by DCN (3 mg/L) (P<0.01), but that of CD133 were not affected.3) DCN (3 mg/L) significantly decreased the expression of HIF-1α/CD133/TIMP-2 protein in HCT116 cells under hypoxia (P<0.01), but had no significant effect on the expression of CD133 mRNA.ConclusionsUnder the conditions of hypoxia and normal oxygen, DCN may function through different mechanisms to inhibit the invasion of colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line HCT116 in vitro.

Objective To investigate the factors affecting the susceptibility of tigecycline and assess the testing methods.Methods The 116 isolates of Acinetobacter baumanaii and Klebsiella pneumoniae were collected in 13 hospitals from January to December,2010,to evaluate the effects on the tigecycline susceptibility of the overnight medium,medium brand and lot number,respectively.The 56 isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii and the 47 isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae were selected randomly according to the MIC distribution proportion in 2010 and 2012.The broth microdilution was taken as the reference method to evaluate the effects of the agar dilution,disk diffusion,MIC Test Strip (MTS) and Vitek2 (GN16) on the susceptibility of tigecycline.Results The essential agreement (EA) of Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae is 89.7％ (52/58)and 87.9％ (51/58) using overnight medium and fresh medium respectively.Both EA and categorical agreement (CA) of the different brands (BBL and Oxoid) and lot numbers are 100％ using agar dilution.According to the FDA break point criteria,the CA/EA is 77.7％ (80/103)/99.0％ (102/103),87.4％ (90/103)/98.1％ (101/103),64.1％ (66/103)/76.7％ (79/103) using agar dilution,MTS,Vitek (GN16) with respect to broth microdilution.The CA is 79.6％ (82/ 103,S≥14 mm,R≤10 mm),69.9％ (72/103,S≥ 16 mm,R≤ 12 mm),34.0％ (35/103,S≥19 mm,R≤14 mm)using disk diffusion method compared with broth microdilution (FDA break point criteria).Conclusions The susceptibility of tigecycline must be tested using fresh medium.The medium brands and lot numbers used in this test have no effects on the tigecycline susceptibility to Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae.There exist the better correlations on MIC using agar dilution and MTS than the disk diffusion and Vitek(GN16) compared with broth microdilution.It is expected that the consistency can be improved by adjusting the break point of disk diffusion.

OBJECTIVETo investigate EXT1 and EXT2 genes mutations in a family with hereditary multiple osteochondromas (HME).

METHODSA four-generation family with HME from Linyi city of Shandong Province was studied. There were 6 affected individuals among the 17 family members. Physical examination and radiographical evaluations were carried out for all family members. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral venous blood and the samples were subjected to mutation screening by PCR of the coding regions of EXT1 and EXT2 genes.

RESULTSThe family has featured an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. Sequencing of the EXT1 and EXT2 genes suggested the causative gene in this family was in linkage with the second exon of EXT2. A c.244delG mutation was detected, which has resulted in a frameshift mutation p.Asp81IlefsX30. The mutation was found in all of the 6 affected individuals but not in normal family members. And the mutation has co-segregated with the phenotype.

CONCLUSIONThe mutation c.244delG in the EXT2 gene is the probably the cause of the disease in this family.
