Objective To study the role of pro inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor?(TNF ?),interleukin 1beta(IL 1?),interleukin 6(IL 6) and anti inflammatory cytokines interleukin 4(IL 4),interleukin 10(IL 10),interleukin 13(IL 13) in acute lung injury(ALI). Methods Wistar Rats (200?50g) were randomly divided into the oleic acid(OA) and Lipoplysaccharide(LPS) induced lung injury experimental group and the only OA induced lung injury control group. The LPS(2mg/kg) was injected in rat's tail vein at the 1, 4, 12 and 24 hours after administration of OA(0.2ml/kg, iv). Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT PCR) were used to detecting the expression of TNF ?, IL 1?, IL 6 and IL 4, IL 10, IL 13 mRNA in the lung tissue of rats in two groups. Results The results showed that the peak expression of TNF ? and IL 1? mRNA at one hour after first hit by oleic acid, and IL 6 mRNA at four hours were observed. Others, such as IL 4, IL 10 and IL 13 mRNA, the highest levels in lung tissue at four hours after lung injury induced by oleic acid. Conclusions The results suggested that TNF ? and IL 1? are presenting early phase of ALI, and that IL 6 played its important role in delayed development. The over expression of anti inflammatory cytokines IL 4, IL 10 and IL 13 may be as a promoters rather than protectors in inflammatory amplification.

Hepatitis B is a serious infectious disease worldwide, and hepatitis B virus (HBV) is the direct cause of this disease. In recent years, as an essential part of its evolutionary process, HBV mutation has been extensively studied domestically and globally. However, the study on the conserved sequences in HBV sequences is still in its infancy. In this study, we applied multiple EM for motif elicitation (MEME) algorithm to discover HBV motif and proposed a new metric, conservative index (CI), to carry out phylogenetic analysis based on HBV sequences. Then, the constructed phylogenetic tree was subjected to reliability assessment. The results demonstrated that the new metric CI combined with the MEME algorithm can effectively help to discover motifs in HBV sequences and construct a phylogenetic tree based on them and to analyze the evolutionary relationship between HBV sequences; in addition, the possible ancestral sequences of samples may be obtained by conservative analysis. The proposed method is valuable for the exploratory study on large HBV sequence data sets.

Objective To observe the protective effect and mechanism of 2,3,5,4 '-tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-beta-D-glucoside ( THSG) on atherosclerosis in ApoE konck-out mice. Methods A total of 24 ApoE knock-out mice were randomly divided into normal control group (n=8), model control group (HFD, high-fat diet, n=8) and treated group (THSG, 20 mg· kg-1, i. g. , n=8). The atherosclerosic plaque of aorta wall and aorta root were measured by oil red O staining;The expression of lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) through C-reaction protein ( CRP) was studied by Western blotting. Results The atherosclerosis plaque in normal control group was not observed. The lipid accumulation decreased in the aorta and the plaque areas in the aortic sinus in THSG treated-group compared with model control group. Moreover, THSG down-regulated CRP-induced LOX-1 expression in HUVEC. Conclusion The atheroscletosis plaque in ApoE knock-out mice was decreased by THSG. The mechanism might be related to the inhibition of the expression of LOX-1 protein.
