Objective To delineate the potency of YC-1 on the proliferation,apoptosis,cell cycle and the protein expression of Caspase-3,-8,-9 in U937 and THP-1 leukemia cell lines.Methods MTT assay was performed to detect proliferation.Flow cytometry was used to measure the apoptosis and cell cycle.The expression of Caspase-3,-8 and-9 were detected by Western blot.Results The MTT assay showed that cell proliferation was inhibited in a concentration-dependent manner in 1.0,3.0,10.0 μmol/L YC-l-treated U937 and THP-1 cells.The survival rates for YC-1 after 24 h in U937 cells were (76.5±4.4) ％,(68.7±6.8) ％,(60.9±13.2) ％ respectively and (94.1±1.4) ％,(81.4±2.0) ％,(72.7±3.0) ％ respectively in THP-1 cell,compared with the control group (100 ％),there were significant differences (F =15.870,126.629,P ＜ 0.01).The apoptosis rates for 1.0,3.0,10.0 μmol/L YC-1 after 24 h were (40.7±1.0) ％,(55.6±2.3) ％,(71.8±1.5) ％respectively in U937 cells and (34.6±2.0) ％,(50.3±3.5) ％,(59.6±4.6) ％ respectively in THP-1 cells.With the control group (4.7±1.4) ％,(1.8±1.0) ％,there were significant difference (F =937.229,200.447,P ＜ 0.01).However,there was no significant difference for cell cycle.In addition,Cleaved Caspase-8 and Cleaved Caspase-3 expression after 1.0,3.0,10.0 μmol/L YC-1 treated for 24 h were significantly higher than control,but the expression of Caspase-9 did not appear significant change in U937 cells.As the same concentration and time point,Cleaved Caspase-3 expression increased with no change of Caspase-9 or Caspase-8 in THP-1 cells.Conclusion YC-1 effectively suppress the proliferation with little effect on cell cycle,but induce the apoptosis,have no effect on cell cycle,and the mechanism of apoptosis may be related to the Caspase activation in U937 and THP-1 cell lines.

A cell model is desired for adipocyte differentiation investigation and for high-throughput screening of anti-obesity and anti-diabetes molecules from chemical resources due to the world wide epidemic of obesity and diabetes. In order to establish such a cell model, a plasmid of pPPARgamma2-promoter-EGFP was constructed by inserting a 660bp sequence of mouse PPARgamma2 promoter into the Ase I and Kpn I sites of pEGFP-N3 and transferred into 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cells. The cells were induced to differentiate and the expression of PPARgamma2 was detected by the microscopic observation of EGFP and by RT-PCR assays. The results showed that the EGFP gene expression patterns were similar to that of pPPARgamma2's, which indicated that the EGFP gene was transferred into the mouse 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cells, and its expression was under the control of pPPARgamma2 promoter. RT-PCR assays showed that the EGFP expression authentically represented the stable expression of PPARgamma2. In conclusion, a preadipocyte cell line expressing EGFP under the control of the promoter of adipocyte-specific expression gene PPARgamma2 was generated. The cell line provides a powerful approach for the research of adipocyte differentiation and for the high-throughput screening of anti-obesity and anti-diabetes chemicals.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance ( PMQR ) determinants [ qnr,aac ( 6' ) -Ib-cr and qepA ]and mutations in quinolone resistance-determining regions (QRDRs) of gyrA and parC and their association with fluoroquinolone susceptibility in clinical isolates of Serratia marcescens in Anhui.Methods The minimum inhibition concentration ( MIC ) of 104 strains of S.rnarcescens collected from various clinical specimens from 34 hospitals during 2005 to 2010 were determined by agar dilution method.The qnr,aac (6')-Ib,qepA,gyrA and parC genes were screened by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 31 strains resistant to ciprofloxacin,and positive results were subsequently confirmed by sequencing.The conjugation experiments were performed for qnr and aac(6')-Ib-cr positive strains.The MIC of S.marcescens isolates,recipient strains and conjugants were tested by agar dilution method for quinolones and other antimicrobial agents.Results Six strains of the 31 S.marcescens isolates harboured qnr and/or aac(6')-Ib-cr genes.Among those 6 strains,2 strains harboured a qnrB6 gene,1 harboured a qnrS2 gene,and 4 harboured aac( 6' ) -Ib-cr,whereas no qnrA-,qnrC- or qnrD-positive isolate was detected.None of the 31 isolates carried the qepA gene.Mutations in the QRDR of gyrA and parC genes were detected in 9 and 7 isolates,respectively.The conjugation experiments were successfully carried out in 5 isolates of 6 PMQR determinants-postive strains.The MIC of conjugants for quinolones were increased evidently compared to recipient strains.Conclusions Chromosome and plasmid-mediated resistance determinants play an important role in quinolone resistance in clinical isolates of S.marcescens.And more important is that the PMQR determinants can be horizontal transmitted.It is necessary to continuously survey and watch for the spread of PMQR in S.marcescens in public health control program.

ObjectiveTo analyze the clinical distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of Serratia marcescens(S. marcescens), and to provide the scientific evidence supporting clinical diagnosis and treatment.MethodsThe antimicrobial susceptibility test was performed in 104 strains of S. marcescens by agar dilution method. The results were judged according to the criteria recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) 2010.The data were analyzed by chi square test. Results The majority of S. marcescens were isolated from sputum specimens,accounting for 59.6％ (62/104). The bacteria were most frequently isolated from department of respiratory (33.7％,35/104),followed by intensive care unit (23.1％,24/104),department of gerontology (16.3％, 17/104). The results of antimicrobial susceptibility test showed that the resistance rates of S.marcescens against ampicillin,gentamicin and cephazolin were high,which were 90.4％,86.5％ and 79.8％,respectively; those against the 3rd generation of cephalosporins were 24.0％-43.3％. No imipenem and meropenem resistant strains were identified. Compared with cefoxitin-resistant strains,the resistance rates of non-cefoxitin resistant strains against piperacillin (82.9％ vs 28.6％),ceftazidime (63.4％ vs 9.5％),aztreonam (68.3％ vs 9.5％),amikacin (68.3％ vs 20.6％),ciprofloxacin (48.8％ vs 19.1％) and chloramphenicol (90.3％ vs 58.7％) were all lower (all P ＜ 0.05 ). Conclusions S. marcescens is one of the most common conditional pathogenic bacteria leading to nosocomial infections,which is resistant to many kinds of antimicrobial agents.The surveillance of antimicrobial resistance in S. marcescens should be strengthened for purpose of preventing the transmission of multidrug resistant strains.
