ObjectiveTo investigate the changes of serum apolipoprotein E (ApoE) in children with infectious diseases.MethodsA total of 279 pediatric patients with infectious diseases were enrolled in this study,including 65 patients with sepsis,47 patients with bacterial meningitis,67 patients with bacterial pneumonia, 47 patients with aseptic meningitis and 53 patients with mycoplasmapneumonia. TheserumApoEcollectedfromallpatientswasdetectedby immunoturbidimetric assay (IA).The septic mouse model was established by intraperitoneal injection of group B Salmonella typhimurium.Mouse serum ApoE levels were detected by IA,and the hepatic ApoE mRNA and protein expressions of mice were detected by quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot,respectively.Data in two groups were compared by independent-sample t test.ResultsSerum ApoE levels in patients with bacterial infections were increased dramatically,which was (59.8±23.5) mg/L in patients with sepsis (t=-5.118,P＜0.01),while no significant differences were found in patients with aseptic meningitis and myeoplasma pneumonia.Moreover,a high level of serum ApoE was detected in septic mouse model,while the hepatic ApoE mRNA and protein expressions of the mice were both decreased,with mRNA decreased 71％ at 3 hour (t=5.022,P＜0.01) and 73％ at 24 hour (t=4.181,P＜0.01).Conclusions Serum ApoE levels in bacterial infections increase dramatically,while its hepatic expression in septic mouse model is decreased,which indicates that the elevated serum ApoE level is not related to the changes of hepatic ApoE expression.

Objective:To establish the cisplatin-resistant human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549/(DDP) cisplatin and to study the relationship between EHD2 and drug resistance. Methods:DDP-resistant human lung cancer cell line A549/DDP was established by gradual and stepwise dose enhancement. MTT was used to measure drug sensitivity. Western blot and immunofluorescence were used to evaluate expression and subcellular localization of EHD2 and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). Results:The DDP-resistant cell line A549/DDP was established, with a resistance index of 7.6. EHD2 and BCRP expressions both increased and were enriched on the cell surface membrane. Conclusion:Both EHD2 and BCRP expressions were enriched on the resistant cell surface membrane, suggesting that EHD2 endocytic protein stabilizes BCRP and is involved in drug resistance.

Objective To investigate the relationship between peripheral inflammatory cytokines and anxiety symptoms in patients with the first?episode generalized anxiety disorder. Methods 48 patients diagnosed with the first?episode generalized anxiety disorder according to ICD?10 criteria and 48 healthy sub?jects were recruited. Peripheral levels of IL?1, IL?2, IL?4, IL?5, IL?6, IL?8, IL?10, IL?12p70, GM?CSF and IFN?γ of both groups were evaluated by enzyme?linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA) ,and CRP was evalua?ted by immunoturbidimetric method. Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale( GAD?7) and State?Trait Anxiety Inventory ( STAI ) were used to assess the levels of overall anxiety, state anxiety and trait anxiety. Results The levels of CRP ( ( 1. 19 ± 0. 80 ) mg/L vs ( 0. 68 ± 0. 70 ) mg/L, t=3. 31 ) , IL?1α( ( 70. 34 ± 3.60)pg/ml vs (16.94±3.42)pg/ml, t=74.50),IL?2((7.25±3.42)pg/ml vs (4.95±2.31)pg/ml, t=3.85), IL?4((102.02±73.14)pg/ml vs (75.55±32.78)pg/ml, t=2.29),IL?6((12.55±2.37)pg/ml vs (2.71±1.35) pg/ml, t=14.79),IL?8((44.64±16.21)pg/ml vs (35.69±11.70)pg/ml, t=3.10),IL?12((18.16±24.17) pg/ml vs (10.82±4.72)pg/ml, t=2.06),IFN?γ((23.32±15.52)pg/ml vs (16.48±6.80)pg/ml, t=2.79), GM?CSF((19.07±11.12)pg/ml vs (13.40±8.54)pg/ml, t=2.80) in patients with the first?episode general?ized anxiety disorder were significantly higher than normal controls(P<0.05) . Both SAI and TAI had signifi? cantly positive correlation with the levels of IL?1α, IL?2, IL?6, IL?8, IL?12, IFN?γ and GM?CSF ( r=0.24?0.76, P<0.05) . Conclusion The levels of some peripheral inflammatory cytokines in patients with the first?episode generalized anxiety disorder are significantly increased,and they have positive correlation with gener?al anxiety,state anxiety and trait anxiety,which may suggest some immune system defects in the patients.

Objective To screen the altered gene expression profile of hippocampus after traumatic brain injury(TBI)in rats. Methods Rats(n=3)in experimental group underwent moderate fluid-percussion(F-P)brain injury and the hippoeampus sample in the injured hemisphere was removed and conserved in liquid nitrogen three hours later.The rats(n=5)of the control group underwent the same procedure except for injury.Mfymetrix rat genome 230 2.0 array was used to detect the gene expression profile of hippocampus in two groups and find the altered gene expression profile. Results A total of 159 genes in the experimental group changed significantly(≥2 folds)compared with the control group,of which 136 genes were up-regulated and 23 genes down-regulated. Conclusions The significant gene expression changes of hippocampus,especially a large mount of up-regulated genes,are detected after moderate TBI in rats,suggesting that the secondary injury following TBI is a procedure involving multiple factors.

Objective To evaluate the trend in prenatal diagnosis of single gene disorders (SGD) and role ofmultidisciplinary cooperative mode.Methods In January l,2012,amultidisciplinarycooperativemode for SGD diagnosis was established in the Peking University First Hospital,involving Departments of Obstetrics,Pediatrics,Neurology,Dermatology and Central Laboratory.For each pregnant woman with a family history of SGD for prenatal diagnosis,propositus should be diagnosed in the relevant departments,and then further diagnosed,managed and followed up by the Obstetrics Department.Up to December 31,2014,of 6 681 women for prenatal diagnosis,279 women had a family history of SGD:76 of them received chorionic villus sampling (CVS) at 11-14 gestational weeks,and 203 received amniocentesis (AC) at 16-22 gestational weeks.The trend in SGD diagnosis and the safety of CVS and AC were analyzed using Chi-square test.Results The proportion of SGD family history in AC group was 3.2％ (203/6 355),which stayed stable with 2.3％ (47/2 054) in 2012,3.9％ (78/2 023) in 2013 and 3.4％ (78/2 278) in 2014,and there was no significant difference between 2013 and 2014 (x2=0.571,P=0.463).In CVS group,the proportion of SGD family history was 23.3％ (76/326),showing an increasing trend with 18.2％ (8/44) in 2012,17.6％ (19/108) in 2013 and 28.2％ (49/174) in 2014,and there were significant differences between 2013 and 2014 (x2=4.067,P=0.046).The proportion of SGD family history in CVS group was higher than in AC group in year 2012,2013 and 2014 (x2＝42.626,44.531 and 201.400,all P=0.000).Among the 279 cases of SGD family history,no complications and adverse outcome were observed except an intra-uterine fetal death occurring 6 months after CVS in one woman,but 3 fetuses were found to have chromosome anomalies with one trisomy 18,one 45,X,and one mosaicism of 45,X/46,XY which was determined to be normal by AC.Conclusions SGD family history is one of the important indicators in prenatal diagnosis,and CVS is feasible for prenatal diagnosis of SGD family history as early as in the first trimester.Multidisciplinary cooperative mode is helpful in SGD family history diagnosis.

Objective To explore the dynamic changes of expressions of surfactant protein A,B(SP-A,B)and aquaporin5(AQP5)mRNA of specificity mark in alveolar epithelial cell(AEC)of premature rats with chronic lung disease(CLD)and those significances.Methods Eighty premature rats were randomly and equally divided into model group(hyperoxia group)and control group(room air group).CLD was induced by hyperoxia exposure.The gene expressions of SP-A,SP-B and AQP5 were assayed with reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)after 1,3,7,14 and 21 days.Results Compared with control group,in hyperoxia group,the levels of SP-A and SP-B mRNA increased from day 7(Pa

Objective:To explore the effect of tibial nerve vibration on triceps surae spasticity in stroke survivors and its electrophysiological mechanism.Methods:Thirty stroke survivors with upper limb spasticity were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group, each of 30. Both groups were given routine rehabilitation training while the treatment group was additionally provided with local vibration of the tibial nerve with an amplitude of 0.3mm at 60Hz. Before and after the treatment, the modified Ashworth scale (MAS) and Clonus grading were used to assess muscle tone and spasticity. Electrophysiological functions were evaluated using the tibial nerve motor and sensory conduction test and F wave and H reflex sensing.Results:Before the treatment there were no significant differences between the two groups in their average MAS scores, Clonus grading, maximum H amplitude (Hmax), the ratio of maximum H to maximum M amplitude (H/M) or the intensity of stimulus required to elicit Hmax. After the treatment, however, all of those measurements had improved significantly in both groups with the average improvements in the treatment group significantly greater than those in the control group.Conclusions:Local vibration of the tibial nerve combined with traditional rehabilitation is more effective than traditional rehabilitation alone in relieving triceps surae spasticity and reducing muscle tone after a stroke. The vibration seems to inhibit excitation of the reflex pathway.
