Objective To investigate the role of H3K27me3 demethylase Jmjd3(KDM6B) during the development of lung in embryonal mice .Methods Jmjd3 knockout embryos of E 19.5 mice were examined by HE , PAS and immnohistochemistry assays .Results The developmental defects of the lung of Jmjd 3 heterozygous ( Jmjd3 +/-) embryos were mild is compared to Jmjd3 +/+embryos.However, Jmjd3 -/-mice suffered from the severe hypoplasia of lung tissue .Differentiated defects of ciliated cell , Clara cell , type Ⅰ and Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells were ob-served in Jmjd3 -/-embryos.The index of cell proliferation was increased in Jmjd3 -/-embryos as compared to wildtype and Jmjd3 +/- embryos.No difference in apoptosis profile was found in these embryos .Conclusions Jmjd3 is essential for proliferation and differentiation of embryonal lung epithelia of mice .

Extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma is a kind of disease that is associated with EB virus infection and characterized by progressive distruction and necrosis of the nasal cavity and midline facial tissues, with histological features of diffuse lymphomatous cells inflitrate and inflammatory cells as abackground or angiocentric and angioinvasive inflitrate.The prognosis is poor,as it is highly aggressive and it can progress rapidly.This article mainly discusses and reviews the progress in treatment methods.

The influence of Rosa davurica pall juice on pulmonary adenoma induced by urethan was observed in the experiment, which lasted for 20 weeks. 250 mice were divided into 4 groups at random. Group A was set as control receiving basal diet and tap water only. Another 3 groups were given basal diet, however, group B was given Rosa davurica pall juice 0.2ml/20g boody weight once a week, group C 0.1% urethan solution for drinking freely and group D 0.1% urethan solution plus the juice. The mouss body weight was weighed once a week; the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), the level of lipoperoxides (LPO), lymphocyte transformation and hemolysin were determined once a month, the pulmonary pathological examination was made also once a month. The obtained data were carried out with a 2?2 factorial analysis. The result were as follows:(1)the incidence of pulmonary adenoma of group C(100%) was significantly higher than that of group D (69%) at the e-nd of experiment (P

Rickettsia felis is a Gram-negative prokaryotic organism that is obligatorically parasitic in cells. Cat fleas are the main vector of Rickettsia felis. Clinical symptoms of human infection with Rickettsia felis include fever, fatigue, headache, macular papules, and eschar. There are few reports of serious complications or deaths due to infection of Rickettsia felis. A confirmed case of severe encephalitis caused by Rickettsia felis infection was admitted to neurology department of Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University on January 29, 2020. After comprehensive treatment of antiviral by acyclovir, mannitol dehydration to reduce intracranial pressure, human immunoglobulin to regulateimmunity, minocycline hydrochloride capsule, levofloxacin mesylate and sodium chloride against Rickettsia felis infection, control of seizure and pulmonary infection, the patient's condition was improved and then discharged. By summarizing the experience and lessons in the treatment of this patient, we hope to remind everyone to strengthen the understanding of Rickettsia felis infection.

We developed a three-dimensional finite element model of the shoulder glenohumeral joint after shoulder arthroplasty including humerus shaft, scapular, scapular cartilage and eight muscles, while each of the muscles was simulated with 50 spring elements. To reduce the element number and improve the analytical precision, we used mixed tetrahedral and hexahedral elements in the model. We then used the model to calculate the biomechanics of the shoulder glenohumeral joint after hemiarthroplasty during humeral external rotation. Results showed that the maximum joint reaction force was 374.72 N and the maximum contact stress was 6. 573 MPa together with the contact areas at 40 degrees external rotation. These might be one of the reasons for prosthetic disarticulation, and would provide theoretical bases to prosthetic design.

Objective There is still a concern that epidural labor analgesia could affect uterinecontraction.The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of epidural labor analgesia on uterinecontraction.Methods Forty ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ primiparous women aged 20-30 yr at full term in normal uncomplicateddelivery were enrolled in this study.They were taller than 1.5 m and weighed less than 100 kg.The amnioticmembrane was artificially ruptured at 3 cm cervical dilation and a catheter was inserted into uterine cavity beyondthe head of the fetus and connected to a maternal-fetal monitor.The patients were randomly divided into 2 groupswith 20 patients in each group:Ⅰ control group received no analgesia and Ⅱ epidural group received continuousepidural analgesia(PCEA).An epidural catheter was placed at L_2-3.After a loading dose of 8-10 ml of the PCEAsolution(0.1% ropivacaine+1 ?g?ml~(-1) fentanyl)PCEA was started(bolus 3 ml,lockout interval 15 min andback ground infusion 6-8 ml?h~(-1)).The height of block was controlled below T_10.Blood samples were taken frommaternal vein at 3 cm cervical dilation(T_1),1h later(T_2)and at delivery(T_3)and from umbilical vein andamniotic fluid was aiso collected for determination of cortisol,PGE_2 and pitocin levels.VAS scores,intrauterinepressure,the frequency and duration of uterine contraction,the use of pitocin(%),incidence of cesareansection,the length of labor and neonatal Apgar scores were recorded.Results The maternal blood eortisolconcentration was significantly lower during PCEA(T_2,T_3)in group Ⅱ than in control group(P

Objective To construct the prokaryotic expression vector of mouse CD25 extracellular domain and to express it in E coli.Methods Total RNA was isolated from splenocytes of Balb/c mice.The CD25 extracellular domain gene was amplified by RT-PCR and cloned into the PET-32a vector.A positive recombinant,PET-32a-CD25e,was identified by enzyme cleaving and sequencing before its expression in E.coli,and transferred into E.coli BL21(DE3) plysS for its expression.After purification with Ni+ resin and renaturation in vitro,a relative molecular mass(Mr) of the interesting protein was detected by SDS-PAGE and Wes-tern blotting.Effect of the purified interesting protein on the proliferation of splenocytes from T cell vaccine-immunized syngeneic mice was detected by MTT assay.Results The cloned CD25 extracellular domain gene was identified to be functional by sequencing and expression.The purified interesting protein could significantly induce the proliferation and IL-4 secretion of splenocytes from T cell vaccine-immunized mice in vitro.Conclusion Mouse CD25 extracellular domain gene can be successfully expressed in prokaryotic cells with biological activity,which lays a foundation for further relative studies.
