Objective To investigate the effect of strong ion-irradiation and active macrophage on vascular endothelial cells. Methods The vascular endothelial cells(ECV-304) were divided into 3 groups: ECV304(A), ECV-304 with radiation (B)and ECV-304 with active macrophage U937 and radiation(C). The survival rates, cell cycle and apoptosis of ECV-304 were determined 48 hours after irradiation. The concentrations of TGF-?1 and VEGF in the cultured supernatant were determined by ELISA method.The protein expression of the endothelial receptor KDR in ECV-304 cells was detected by immunofluorescence and flow-cytometry while its mRNA expression was detected by RT-PCR. Results After high dose of ion-irrdiation, the cellular proliferation activity decreased, apopototic cells increased and the cell ratio in G2/M phase increased.In addition,The secretion of VEGF and TGF-?1 was promoted with the increased KDR expression. Active macrophages could alleviate the decrease of cellular proliferation and the increase of apoptotic cells and cell ratio in G2/M phase induced by ion-irriation.Furthermore,the VEGF secretion and the KDR expression were enhanced and the secretion of TGF-?1 was inhibited by the active macrophages. Conclusions Ion irradiation could induce the decrease of cellular proloferation, the increase of apoptotic cells and the cells in G2/M phase.This might partly be related to the inhibiting roles of TGF-?1 secreted by the ECV-304 cells.Active macrophages might protect the endothelial cells from radiation injury.

Objective To investigate molecular typing and drug resistance patterns of 98 Klebsiella pneumoniae (K.pneumoniae) isolated from type 2 diabetes patients complicated with maxillofacial infection,to research the virulence and resistance mechanisms.Methods The study was a prospective study that adopted the method of continuous sampling from fixed location,from March 2010 to October 2012.The maxillofacial surgery patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes complicated with maxillofacial infection were chosen in 7 hospitals in Zhengzhou as the research object,and a total of 431 pus sample were collected continuously,in which 98 strains K.pneumoniae were isolated and identified.The Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion test was conducted in 98 strains to determine the resistance to 19 antibacterial agents.K.pneumoniae chromosomal DNA were digested by restriction endonuclease Xba Ⅰ and analyzed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE).PFGE patterns of K.pneumoniae strains were analyzed using Fingerprinting software.The relationship between the molecular types and resistance phenotype was observed.The extended spectrum β-1actamase-producing K.pneumoniae were screened out by the double disc synergy test (DDST)Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detect resistant genotypes,serotype and virulence genes.The purified PCR products of resistant genes were cloned and sequenced.Hypermucoviscosity phenotype of all strains were determined by string test.Results Much severer drug-resistance for K.pneumoniae was identified and the result of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing rate was 57.1 ％.Ninety-eight strains were dispatched into 13 groups by PFGE.No dominant bands and specific extended-spectrum beta-lactamase DNA bands were found.The results of PCR showed that among the 56 strains of extended spectrum β-lactamase-producing K.pneumoniae,40 were positive for blaSHV (accounting for 71.4％),28 positive for blaTEM (accounting for 50.5％),21 positive for blaCTX-M (accounting tor 37.5％).The sequencing results were as follows:TEM-1,CTX-M-3 and a variety of SHV.Serotype K1,K2,K3,K5,K20,K54 and K57 and 3 kinds of virulence genes were detected,but not in strong toxicity-based.Hypermucoviscosity positive rate was 31.6％ (31/98).Conclusion Much severer drug resistance of K.pneumoniae in this study was identified and resistant mechanism was complex,in which strong toxicity serotype and virulence geues exist,which need more attention from clinical.

BACKGROUND:Skin and soft tissue defects of hands are easy to appear due to different factors, such as trauma. Flap transplantation is a clinical treatment for soft tissue defects of hands. Dorsal foot flap, which is thicker with constant vessel traveling, is very suitable for repair of hand soft tissue defects. OBJECTIVE: To explore the success rate and survival rate of dorsal foot flap transplantation in the repair of hand skin and soft tissue defects. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 86 patients with skin and soft tissue defect of hands. These patients were respectively given conventional skin wound skin grafting (control group) and dorsal foot flap transplantation (observational group). Hand appearance, infection rate, perception recovery and complications were observed during the postoperative folow-up. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Skin flaps al survived after grafting, and the texture of flaps was good. Patients were satisfied with hand shape and the recovery of hand function. After flap transplantation, one patient had local skin necrosis at the donor region, and the scar healed after dressing; another patient had venous crisis, and was given vascular re-anastomosis. In the observation group, the postoperative appearance was better than that of the control group, the infection rate was lower than that of the control group, the perception recovery was better, and there were fewer complications (P < 0.05). These findings suggest that the dorsal foot flap transplantation is better to repair skin and soft tissue defects in the hand.

BACKGROUND:Metabolic syndrome greatly harms the human body, and is affected by many factors. Through constructing diet-induced animal models, we can better analyze the relationship between nutritional factor and metabolic syndrome, and provide reliable references for the clinical treatment of this disorder. OBJECTIVE:To construct obese mouse models with high-fat diet feeding and discuss the relationship between nutritional factor and metabolic syndrome. METHODS:Thirty mice were selected and randomly divided into model group (n=20) and control group (n=10), and were fed with high-fat and normal animal feeds for 10 consecutive weeks. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, after 1 week of feeding with high-fat animal feeds, body weight of mice in the model group raised, and differences gradualy increased with the feeding time increased. After 8 weeks of feeding, body mass index of mice in the model group significantly raised (P < 0.05). After 4 weeks of feeding, fasting venous blood glucose level of mice in the model group significantly raised, and showed a gradual rise trend with feeding time. After 5 weeks of feeding, fasting insulin level of mice in the model group also began to rise. The oral glucose tolerance test showed that mice in the model group showed a gradual downward trend of glucose tolerance with feeding time. After 8 weeks of feeding, serum levels of total cholesterol and high density lipoprotein cholesterol in the model group significantly raised (P < 0.05). After 10 weeks of feeding, serum levels of triacylglycerol, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol and high density lipoprotein cholesterol in the model group raised (P< 0.05). The results demonstrate that obese mouse models were successfuly constructed with high-fat diet feeding, which can simulate the natural progression of metabolic syndrome in human, moreover, the nutritional factor is closely related to metabolic syndrome.

Objective To explore the expression of COX-2 and p38MAPK in patients with trauma MODS. Methods Forty MODS patients were evaluated. The levels of peripheral blood mononuclear cells COX-2 and p38MAPK in MODS patients and 40 normal controls was detected by enzyme linked immunosor-bent assay (ELISA). RT-PCR was used to measure the COX-2 mRNA and p38MAPK mRNA expression of in PBMCs. ANOV and correlation analysis were used in statistical analysis. Results The levels of COX-2 and p38MAPK of PBMCs and the mRNA expression in MODS group were higher than in control group (all P <0.05). The levels of COX-2 and p38MAPK of PBMCs and the mRNA expression in dead group were higher than in survival group( all P <0.05). The levels of COX-2 and p38MAPK of PBMCs were positively correlated, (r =0.6 147, P<0.01). The expression of COX-2 mRNA, p38MAPK mRNA of PBMCs and APACHE I scoring were positively correlated (r1 =0.5 009, P1 <0.05,r2 =0. 5 316, P2 <0. 05). Conclusions COX-2 and p38MAPK of PBMCs take part in the onset of MODS, and may service as index to judge the prognosis of MODS.

The correlated proteome of Penicillium marneffei resistant to fluconazole was investigated in the present study, in which 11 strains of P. marneffei of both the mycelial and yeast forms sensitive to fluconazole were cultivated in Sabouraud's liquid medium containing 8 g fluconazole and the MICs of fluoconazile to P.marneffei before and after inducing cultures were tested by E-test method. The strains of the mycelial and yeast forms showing the most significant increase in MIC value were selected and the protein clip CM10 was used to detect the proteome differences before and after inducing cultures. It was found that 11 strains of the mycelial forms and 2 strains of the yeast forms could tolerate the action of fluconazole and could grow at a drug concentration of 8 μg/mL. Furthermore, the MICs of fluoconazole to the mycelial forms were significantly increased after 7 days of inducing culture and the geometric means of MICs were increased from 1.22 μg /mL to 55.56 μg/mL. After the mycelial forms had been induced to be resistant, 16 proteins were highly expressed with specific expression of the 4581.1 Da and 6109.7 Da proteins; whereas 22 resistant yeast form were highly expressed with specific expression of the 3575.2 Da, 8507.0 Da and 8563.3 Da proteins. These results suggest that the mycelial form of P.narneffei seems to be more tolerant to the action of fluconazole than the yeast form. The resistance of these organisms to fluconazole may be associated to some specific proteins.

Objective To make a preliminary study on the results from qualitative and quantitative detection of low concentra-tion hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg).Methods 85 HBsAg low concentration serum samples (ELISA method test re-sults were 0.60.05)and 0.60.05).The positive detection rate showed statistically difference between ELISA (70.6%)and CMIA,TRFIA in 0.6TRFIA>ELISA.②The contents of HBsAg showed statistically difference among 0.6TRFIA>ELISA.③There was a positive correlation between the three methods of HBsAg content (t=2.939,2.928,60.915,P<0.05).The correlation between CMIA method and TRFIA method was the best (r=0.989).Con-clusion CMIA was the first choice for testing low concentration HBsAg,TRFIA was the second.For the specimens of the low concentration HBsAg detected by ELISA should be suggested to clinical and retested by CMIA or TRFIA in order to a-void missing detection.And it was not recommended to clinical that different methods of quantitative or half-quantitative re-sults were transverse compared in order to avoid misdiagnosis.
