Objective To explore the effect of methylprednisolone combined with interferon in the treatment patients with relapse remitting multiple sclerosis.Methods 90 patients with relapse remitting multiple sclerosis were randomly divided into experimental group and treatment group.The experimental group during the acute stage with methylprednisolone pulse therapy,remission with interferon β (IFN-β) treatment; the control group only in the acute phase with methylprednisolone pulse therapy.Results The total effective rate of methylprednisolone pulse therapy in the acute stage was 98.9％.Experimental group during the treatment with IFN-β1α,relapse rate was 30.2％ ;patients in the control group were followed up for two years,the recurrence rate was 53.3％.Experimental group and control group was significantly different ( P ＜ 0.05 ),the experimental group was significantly lower than the control group.Conclusion For relapsing-remitting MS,using MPPT could relieve acute symptom in the acute stage,and in remission using of IFN-β1α relapse prevention was a good choice for clinicians.

Objective To investigate the possible role of eukaryotic initiation factor 6(eIF6)in the development of kidney inter-stitial tissue fibrosis in a mouse model of unilateral ureteral obstruction(UUO).Methods (1)UUO model was set up in eIF6+/-and eIF6+/+ mice.(2)HE and Masson staining were used to histologically assess the interstitial deposition of collagen in mouse kidney.Immunohistochemistry and image analysis were applied to analyze the expression of α-SMA and TGF-β1 in mouse kidney as well as eIF6 in human kidney samples.Results 10 days after unilateral ureteral obstruction,more kidney interstitial fibrosis tissues were found in eIF6+/- mice than that in eIF6+/+ mice.TGF-β1 andα-SMA were expressed more intensive in tubular epithelial cells of eIF6+/- mice than that of eIF6+/+ mice in the UUO model.Expression of eIF6 is lower in the region of fibrosis than that in non-fibrotic area.Conclusion eIF6 might be involved in the development of kidney interstitial tissue fibrosis by regulating the expres-sion of TGF-β1 .

Biodegradable and biocompatible functional polymers show high potential as novel drug carriers in disease diagnosis and therapy.Recently,protein drugs have brought about major breakthroughs in the treatment of various diseases including cancer,while the development of carrier technology is relatively delayed.This article reviews recent advances in biodegradable functional polymers as protein drug nanocarriers.Additionally,we have discussed the perspective of developing new generations of biocompatible and functional polymers.

OBJECTIVE To study infection and drug resistance of Mycoplasma from female genital tract.METHODS Mycoplasma in cervical secretion from inflammed female genital tract were identified by cultivation,and the sensitivities to antibiotics were also performed.RESULTS Mycoplasma were detected in 318 specimens among 588 patients with genital tract inflammation(54.1%),among which Ureaplasma urealyticum(Uu) accounted for 312(98.1%),and Mycoplasma hominis was 6(1.9%).The resistance to 12 kinds of antibiotics indicated that the sensitivities to 8 kinds of antibiotics were higher than 80% and the sensitivities to erythromycin,spiramycin and tetracycline were the lowest.CONCLUSIONS The infectious rates of Uu are on big rise in female genital tract with inflammation and the resistant strains increase continuously.

Objective To investigate the effect of percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic surgery for lumbar prolapse upwards type disc herniation.Methods According to the digital table,90 patients with lumbar prolapse upwards type disc herniation were randomly divide into the observation group and the control group,45 cases in each group.The observation group was treated with percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic surgery,the control group was treated with conventional open surgery.The curative effect,operation and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results All patients were satisfied with the location,and they were completely removed from the nucleus.Compared with the control group,the operation time[(75.3±23.1)min vs.(103.4±35.4)min]and hospitalization time[(6.8±1.2)d vs.(8.7±1.8)d]of the observation group were shorter,the bleeding volume[(24.5±8.5)mL vs.(51.6±12.7)mL]was lower,the differences were statistically significant(t=4.453,5.632,4.269,all P<0.05).After one month and three months,the VAS score[(2.53±0.65)pints and(1.33±0.48)points]and ODI[(21.40±5.04)% and(12.93±3.50)%]of the observation group were significantly lower,there were statistically differences between the two groups compared with those before treatment(t=6.755,8.765,all P<0.05).And after one month,the VAS score and ODI of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group,the differences were statistically significant(t=4.342,3.985,all P<0.05).There was no significant difference between the two groups in the excellent and good rate(86.7% vs.82.2%,X2=1.011,P>0.05).ConclusionPercutaneous endoscopic discectomy surgery in the treatment of lumbar prolapse upwards type disc herniation is reliable,and it has less trauma and shorter hospital stay.

Objective To evaluate the construction of expression vector for fusion protein of cell-penetrating pep-tide CCL (PEP-CCL).Methods CCL6-PEP-6XHis was inserted into plasmid pABP,pABP-CCL6-PEP plasmid was extracted and then transfected into HEK293 cells,CCL6-PEP-6XHis was expressed and purified by chromatog-raphy and detected with Western Blot.Results PEP-CCL express vector was successfully constructed and purified. PCR product of CCL6-PEP-6XHis Tag was ligated with T vector,recombinant was transferred into the host cells, then host cells were cultured,plasmid was extracted and sequenced,the sequence was identical to targeted gene. CCL6-PEP-6XHis was successfully inserted into the eukaryotic expression vector pABP,plasmid was extracted and digested,electrophoresis results revealed that a fragment with 430bp was digested by Hind Ⅲ+XbaⅠ,which was identical to the expected value.Western Blot revealed that CCL6-PEP fusion protein could be recognized by His monoclonal antibody.Conclusion PEP-CCL express vector can be constructed and expressed in eukaryotic cells.

Liver sinusoid endothelial cells are the first defense mechanism that protects the liver against various injuries,and they also play a significant role in the development of liver fibrosis and liver cirrhosis caused by chronic liver injury.They are involved in liver fibrosis by mediating liver inflammation,participating in sinusoid capillarization and revascularization,activating hepatic stellate cells,secreting many proinflammatory cytokines,participating in extracellular matrix formation,and mediating liver microcirculation disturbance.Clarification of these mechanisms helps to identify new targets and develop new regimens for the treatment of liver fibrosis.

Objective It has been shown that fluorinated inhalational anesthetics have various adverse effects on the lungs. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of different concentrations of isoflurane (ISO) on the lungs in rats.Methods Ninety Wistar rats of both sexes weighing 140-200 g were randomly divided into two groups : (A) control group received only oxygen inhalation ( n = 30) and (B) isoflurane group (n = 60) which was farther divided into 2 subgroups (n = 30):0.6% and 1.4% isoflurane. In each subgroup isoflurane was inhaled for 2 h ( n = 10), 4h (n = 10) or 8 h ( n = 10) . The animals were placed in a glass container and isoflurane was delivered from ISO vaporizer into the container through the inlet. The end-tidal ISO concentration was checked at the outlet. The animals were sacrificed at the end of ISO inhalation. The lungs were immediately removed and blood was collected for determination of (1) lung water content, (2) protein content and neutrophil ratio in broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) , (3) serum and BALF surfactant protein-A (SP-A) content and (4) microscopic examination. Results There was no significant difference in all variables between control group and 0.6% ISO subgroup. Exposure to 1.4% ISO for 8 h caused an increase in neutrophil ratio and protein content in BALF, and serum SP-A content but a decrease in BALF SP-A content. There was no significant difference in lung water content between control group and 1.4% ISO (8 h) subgroup. Conclusion Isoflurane (1 MAC) inhalation over 8 h may impair the function of alveolar epithelium.
