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.

ObjectiveTo investigate the variations and distributions of the plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance genes in clinical isolates of Shigella and their resistance to antimicrobial agents. Methodsqnr, aac(6')-Ib-cr and qepA genes were identified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 137 clinical isolates of Shigella.DNA sequencing of gene-positive strains were analyzed and the conjugation experiment was performed. The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of Shigella isolates, recipient strains and transconjugants were tested by agar dilution method for quinolones and other antimicrobial agents. The genotype of transconjugants were determined by PCR and sequencing. ResultsFour (2.9%) strains of the 137 Shigella isolates were qnr gene positive, including 3 qnrS2 positive and 1 qnrB4 positive (GenBank accession numbers of the complete sequence were JF261185 and HQ917003, respectively).Furthermore,five (3.6%) aac ( 6')-Ib-cr gene-positive strains (GenBank accession number JF261186 ) and one (0.7%) qepA gene-positive strain were identified in all isolates. The conjugation experiments were successfully carried out in six out of ten PCR-positive isolates. The MIC of transconjugants against quinolones and other antimicrobial agents increased differently compared to recipient strains. Conclusions The plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance genes are lowly prevalent in clinical isolates of Shigella. However, these resistance genes have the characteristic of horizontal transfer, which indicates that more attention should be paid to this phenomenon.

Objective To explore the differences in health care quality,scale,output,efficiency,cost and financial condition between freestanding secondary hospitals and system-affiliated secondary hospitals in Shanghai,and analyse the determinants of hospital integration. Methods Eleven upper secondary hospitals in Shanghai integrated between 2000 and 2004 were selected,and another 40 secondary hospitals (including 30 upper secondary hospitals and 10 middle secondary hospitals) without integration were served as controls. Using related data of 1999,Mann-Whitney U test was performed to analyse the differences between these two groups,and Logistic regression analysis was conducted to explore the determinants of hospital integration. Results There were significant differences in health care quality,scale,and output between these two groups (P0.05). It was revealed by Logistic regression analysis that health care quality,scale,output,and financial condition were determinants of integration. Conclusion System-affiliated secondary hospitals have advantages over freestanding hospitals in health care quality,scale,output and financial condition,and those with better health care quality,larger scale,larger output and better financial condition are more likely to be integrated by tertiary hospitals.
