The main purposes of translational Medicine is to break the barrier among the basic medicine,clinical medicine and drug R&D in order to establish direct and close connection and cooperation between them.However,so far almost in the world wide,translational medicine is still at the exploration stage and far away from the real transformation.This article reviewed the difficult position of translational medicine cooperation from the three aspects of cooperative resources,sponsor and domestic culture,and then suggested to promote clinical medicine research,set up new assessment systems which focus on classified evaluation and representative work,as well as create the culture of cooperation.

Objective To evaluate the role of pl20-catenin protein (p120) in mechanical stretchinduced transferring of E-cadherin to cytoplasm in mouse alveolar epithelial cells.Methods Experiment Ⅰ Mouse alveolar epithelial cells (MLE-12 cells) were seeded in 6-well cell stretch plates at a density of (1.0-1.5) ×106 cells/well and divided into 3 groups (n=12 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),cyclic stretch for 2 h group (group CS2) and cyclic stretch for 4 h group (group CS4).The cells underwent 20％ cyclic stretch at 0.5 Hz (stretch:intermittence =1 ∶ 1) for 2 and 4 h in CS2 and CS4 groups,respectively.The cells underwent no cyclic stretch in group C.The expression of p120,E-cadherin and phosphorylated Src kinase (p-Src) and expression of E-cadherin in cytomembrane and cytoplasma were detected by Western blot.Experiment Ⅱ MLE-12 cells were seeded in 6-well cell stretch plates at a density of (1.0-1.5)× 106 cells/well and divided into 4 groups (n =6 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),cyclic stretch group (group CS),p120 small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfection group (group p120 siRNA),and p120 siRNA transfection plus cyclic stretch group (group p120 siRNA+CS).The cells were transfected with scramble siRNA in C and CS groups,and 24 h later the cells underwent 20％ cyclic stretch for 2 h at 0.5 Hz (stretch:intermittence =1 ∶ 1) in group CS.The cells were transfected with p120 siRNA in p120 siRNA and p120 siRNA+CS groups,and 24 h later the cells underwent 20％ cyclic stretch for 2 h at 0.5 Hz (stretch ∶ intermittence =1 ∶ 1) in group p120 siRNA+CS.The expression of E-cadherin in cytomembrane and cytoplasm was detected by Western blot after the end of treatment in each group.Results Experiment Ⅰ Compared with group C,the expression of p120 and E-cadherin was significantly down-regulated,the expression of p-Src was up-regulated,the expression of E-cadherin in cytomembrane was down-regulated,and the expression of E-cadherin in cytoplasm was up-regulated in CS2 and CS4 groups (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group CS2,the expression of p120 and E-cadherin was significantly down-regulated,the expression of p-Src was up-regulated,the expression of E-cadherin in cytomembrane was down-regulated,and the expression of E-cadherin in cytoplasm was upregulated in group CS4 (P ＜ O.05).Experiment Ⅱ Compared with group C,the expression of E-cadherin in cytomembrane was significantly down-regulated,and the expression of E-cadherin in cytoplasm was up-regulated in CS,p120 siRNA and p120 siRNA+CS groups (P＜ 0.05).Compared with group CS or group p120 siRNA,the expression of E-cadherin in cytomembrane was significantly down-regulated,and the expression of E-cadherin in cytoplasm was up-regulated in group p120 siRNA+CS (P＜0.05).Conclusion The degradation of p120 can promote mechanical stretch-induced transferring of E-cadherin to cytoplasm in mouse alveolar epithelial cells.

Objective To establish the in vivo models of adriamycin(ADR)-induced cardiotoxicity in rabbits, investigate the protective effect of oxymatrine (OMT) on ADR-induced cardiotoxicity, and explore the possible mechanism. Methods Twenty-six rabbits were randomly divided into ADR group (n=8, 2 mg/kg ADR), OMT group (n=5, 10 mg/kg OMT), ADR + OMT group (n=8, 10 mg/kg OMT was injected 30 min before ADR injection) and saline group (n=5, same quantity of normal saline), and rabbits in each group were infused with medicine or normal saline through ear marginal vein once a week for 8 weeks. The apoptosis of myocardial cells was detected by TUNEL methods, and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) was determined. Results After treatment, the body weight of ADR group was significantly lower than that of the other groups(P < 0.05), the activity of SOD and GSH-Px significantly decreased and the apoptosis index (AI) was significantly higher than that of the other groups(P <0.01). There were similar while minor changes in ADR + OMT group. There was no significant adverse effects in OMT group. Conclusion OMT protects heart from adriamycin-induced injury in rabbits, which may relate to the decrease in level of antioxidant and apoptosis of myocardial cells.

Objective:To investigate the effect of MT01 on the differentiation of osteoblasts under infected condition through determining the expression level of collagen Ⅰ (Col Ⅰ )mRNA in MG63 cells treated with Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg).Methods:The cultured MG63 cells were divided into blank control,MT01,Pg, and MT01+Pg groups.MT01 at a concentration of 1 mg·L-1 was added into the MG63 cells,and the cells were incubated for 3 h.The cells treated with PBS (1 mg·L-1 )were used as control group.Then Pg (MOI=100∶1) was added.Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression levels of ColⅠ mRNA in MG63 cells at 2,4,6,8, 12 and 24 h after incubation.Results:Compared with blank control group,the levles of ColⅠ mRNA in the MG63 cells in MT01 and MT01 + Pg groups had no significant changes at 2 and 4 h (P > 0.05);the Col Ⅰ mRNA expression levels in MT01 group at 8,12 and 24 h were increased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01).Compared with Pg group,the expression levels of ColⅠ mRNA in MT01+ Pg at 2 and 4 h were decreased,but the expression levels of ColⅠ mRNA were increased at 6,8,12 and 24 h (P <0.05 or P <0.01).Conclusion:MT01 can up-regulate the expression level of Col Ⅰ mRNA in the infected MG63 cells; MT01 could promot the differentiation of osteoblasts under infected condition.

Objective To investigate the mechanism related to reduced antibiotic sensitivity of Acinetobacter baumannii inducted by meropenem in vitro.Methods Three strains of clinically isolated carbapenems-sensitive Acinetobacter baumannii were induced by meropenem in vitro, and the mutant strains (MS1, MS2 and MS3) were obtained.Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of antimicrobial agents to strains before and after induction were determined by automatic drug sensitivity analyzer .The homology of strains was analyzed by Enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus -polymerase chain reaction ( ERIC-PCR).Modified Hodge test and EDTA-Na2-double disk synergy test were used to detect carbapenemase and metallo-β-lactamase (MBL), respectively.Main carbapenemase genes were detected by PCR and followed by DNA sequencing.Expressions of adeB and outer membrane proteins in strains before and after induction were detected with fluorescence quantitative PCR and SDS -polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis , respectively.t test was used for data analysis .Results The sensitivity of mutant Acinetobacter baumannii strains to meropenem and most antibiotics was reduced , except to imipenem, amikacin and polymyxin; and the reduced sensitivity to meropenem in MS2 and MS3 was of genetic stability.ERIC-PCR showed 100%homology between the mutant strains and parental strains .Both carbapenemase and metallo -β-lactamase were negative in mutant strains and parental strains , and only OXA-51 gene was found.The expressions of adeB gene in mutant strains were 24.26 ±0.91, while those in parental strains were 22.81 ±0.38, and the difference was not significant (t =2.534, P >0.05).Outer membrane protein with molecular weight 54 000 was missing in MS1, while that with molecular weight 47 000 was missing in MS2 and MS3.Conclusion Reduced antibiotics sensitivity in meropenem -induced Acinetobacter baumannii may be correlated with the deficiency of outer membrane protein with molecular weight 47 000.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a domestic recombinant human tumor necrosis factor receptor type Ⅱ- IgG Fc fusion protein (rhTNFR-Fc)for the treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis vulgaris. Methods A multicenter, randomized, double blind, parallel-group, positive drug-controlled clinical trial was conducted. According to random numbers generated by a hierarchical segmentation method using the SAS 9.2 software, patients with moderate to severe psoriasis vulgaris were randomly divided into two groups to be injected with two kinds of domestic rhTNFR-Fc under the trade names of Anbainuo(test group)and Yisaipu(control group)respectively at a dose of 25 mg twice a week for 12 consecutive weeks. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving a 50%, 75% and 90% reduction in psoriasis area and severity index(PASI50, PASI75 and PASI90)at week 2, 6 and 12 after initiation of the treatment. Adverse reactions were also recorded. Statistical analysis was carried out by using the chi-square test, Fisher′s exact test, two-sample t-test, and noninferiority trials with the software SAS 9.2. Results A total of 180 patients were enrolled in this study from 5 centers, and 174 completed this trial, of whom, 88 were assigned to the test group and 86 to the control group. Analysis of the full analysis set (FAS)revealed no significant differences in PASI50(75.6%(68/90)vs. 82.2%(74/90), P > 0.05)or PASI75(51.1%(46/90)vs. 50.0%(45/90), P > 0.05) between the test group and control group, but a significant increase in PASI90 in the test group compared with the control group (30.0% (27/90)vs.16.7% (15/90), χ2 = 4.472, P < 0.05)at week 12. Drug-related adverse reactions included elevation of transaminases, leukopenia, upper respiratory infections, injection-site reactions, abnormalities in urine routine test and purified protein derivative (PPD)skin test results, etc. There was no significant difference between the two groups in the incidence rate of adverse reactions(χ2 = 0.188, P > 0.05), most of which were mild, and subsided spontaneously or after appropriate treatment. Conclusion The domestic rhTNFR-Fc (trade name:Anbainuo)25 mg twice a week for 12 weeks is effective and safe for the treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis——————————vulgaris.

Objecitv e To investigate the effects of a recombinant protein osteoclast inhibitory lectin related protein 2( OCILRP2)-Fc on LPS-induced endotoxemia by blocking OCILRP 2 signaling pathway and to in-vestigate the roles of OCILRP2 during inflammation.Methods Real-time PCR was used to detect OCILRP2 ex-pression at mRNA level in RAW264.7cells before and after in vitro stimulation with LPS.A mouse model of en-dotoxemia was established by intraperitoneal injection of BALB /c mice with a median lethal dose of LPS .Two hours prior to LPS treatment, mice were intraperitoneally injected with OCILRP2-Fc, human IgG or PBS, re-spectively .Several parameters including the survival rate of BALB/c mice with and without LPS treatment , spleen weight for arterial hyperemia analyzing , histopathological changes of lung and liver by HE staining , serum levels of inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-12, TNF-αand IFN-γ)by ELISA , NF-κB activity by Western blot, were analyzed .Results Real-time PCR showed that LPS elevated in vitro OCILRP2 expression at mRNA level in macrophages (P<0.05).Upon the treatment of OCILRP2-Fc, BALB/c mice suffered from endotoxemia showed obviously increased survival rate , decreased spleen hyperemia , attenuated pathological injury of lung and liver, reduced levels of IL-6, IL-12, TNF-αand IFN-γin serum samples (P <0.05) as compared with mice treated with human IgG and PBS .LPS induced NF-κB p65 phosphorylation and IκB degradation were inhibited by OCILRP2-Fc treatment.Conclusion OCILRP2-Fc protects mice from endotoxemia by blocking OCILRP 2 signaling, which suggests that OCILRP2 plays an important role in LPS induced inflammation.
