The endophytic fungi with plant growth promoting effects were screened by co-culture of each endophytic fungus and seedlings of Dendrobium officinale. Anatomical features of the inoculated roots were studied by paraffin sectioning. Morphological characteristics and rDNA ITS1-5. 8S-ITS2 sequences were applied for the taxonomy of endophytic fungi. The results showed that 8 strains inoculated to D. officinale seedlings greatly enhanced plant height, stem diameter, new roots number and biomass. According to the anatomical features of the inoculated roots, each fungus could infect the velamina of seedlings. The hyphae or pelotons were existed in the exodermis passage cells and cortex cells. The effective fungi could not infect the endodermis and vascular bundle sheath, but which was exception for other fungi with harmful to seedlings. Combined with classic morphologic classification, 2 effective strains were identified which were subjected to Pestalotiopsis and Eurotium. Six species of fungi without conidiophore belonged to Pyrenochaeta, Coprinellus, Pholiota, Alternaria, Helotiales, which were identified by sequencing the PCR-amplified rDNA ITS1-5. 8S-ITS2 regions. The co-culture technology of effective endophytic fungi and plant can apply to cultivate the seedlings of D. officinale. It is feasible to shorten growth cycle of D. officinale and increase the resource of Chinese herbs.

Objective To investigate the early influences of laser photocoagulation on macular retinal thickness in diabetic retinopathy(DR). Methods Optic coherence tomography examination was performed in 30 eyes with DR(phase Ⅲ~Ⅳ) before, and on the 3rd day and the 7th day after photocoagulation respectively. The thickness of neuroretina and pigment epithelium were measured in the areas of fovea macula and 750 ?m from fovea macula. Results Three days after photocoagulation, significant thickening of neuroretina was observed in the fovea macula, which is positively related with age, fasting blood sugar and duration of DR. There was no significant changes in the thickness of pigment epithelium in macula and in the thickness of neuroretina 750 ?m from fovea macula. Conclusion Significant thickening of neuroretina in fovea macula in DR early after photocoagulation reveals progressed macular edema induced by photocoagulation which is positively related with age, fasting blood sugar and duration of DR.

Objective To observe the effects of IFNα-2b on keloid fibroblasts in cell prolifera-tion, apoptosis, expression of hTERT and bcl-2 mRNA and to explore its anti-keloid mechanism. Methods Primary cultures of dermal fibroblasts derived from 8 keloid and 8 normal skin samples were established, strains of fibroblasts at passages 3 to 4 were used in this study. Keloid and normal skin fibroblasts in culture medium in vitro were given IFNα-2b and were obsevered in different time. The proliferation of the fibroblasts was measured by MTT assay, the apoptosis was analysed by flow cytometry(FCM), and the expression of hTERT and bcl-2 mRNA were obsevered by semi-qnantitativere verse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The data were analyzed by statistical software (SPSS11. 5). Results IFNα-2b could inhibit the growth of keloid and nomal skin fibroblasts. The suppression of keloid and nomal skin fibroblasts was time-dependent. After the effect of 10 000 U/ml INFα-2b on cultured fibroblast of keloid and normal skin,the fibroblasts apoptosis was induced and the expression of hTERT and bcl-2 mRNA was lower than that of controlled group . The result was significantly different between control group and treatment group and was related with the treatment time of INFα-2b (P<0.01). Conclusions As a negative regulatory factor,interferon α-2b can suppress growth and proliferation of keloid fibroblasts and induce apoptosis. Decreasing the telomerase activity of keloid fibroblasts may be one of the most important mechamisms. That IFNa-2b inhibited telomerase activity in keloid fibroblasts is an important pathway that may play a key role in the anti- keloid therapy.

Objective: To investigate the factors that affect the outcome of pregnancies complicated with critically heart disease admitted to obstetric Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Methods: A retrospective study was conducted for 188 pregnant and postpartum patientscomplicated with heart disease who were admitted to the ICU in West China Second University Hospital from July 2009 to March 2013. Results: During the 4 years, there were 619 cases of pregnancy complicated with heart disease hospitalization. Among them, 188 (30.37%) patients complicated with severe heart disease were admitted to the ICU, accounting for 39.17% of the total ICU admission (480); the mean maternal age was (28.45±6.08) years old and the mean gestational time was (36.03±4.19) weeks. 23 (12.23%) patients received regular antenatal care in our hospital. 61 (32.45%) patients never received antenatal care before hospitalization. Among them, 5 patients were dead. hTe ratio for diagnosis of heart disease before pregnancy, during pregnancy and atfer admission were 39.89%, 25.54% and 34.57%, respectively; the most common heart diseases during pregnancy were congenital cardiac disease (80, 42.55%) and rheumatic heart disease (45, 23.94%) followed by arrhythmias (20, 10.64%). The most common complication were pulmonary arterial hypertension (51, 27.13%), arrhythmias (47, 25.00%) and severe heart failure (30, 15.96%); the cardiac function of 164 (87.23%) patients was at stage I–II and 5 (2.66% ) patients died when discharged from hospital. 151 (80.32%) patients received multidisciplinary consultation and 34 (18.09%) used central venous catheterization to control central venous pressure (CVP). 21 (11.17%) patients required mechanical ventilation. 11 (5.85%) patients required emergency life support (cardiopulmonary resuscitation 9 + electric deifbrillation 3). Conclusion: Pregnancy complicated with heart disease is the leading reason for admission to ICU. hTe congenital cardiac disease, rheumatic heart disease and arrhythmias are the main heart diseases during pregnancy. Multidisciplinary cooperation and intensive care are the key measures to improve the outcomes of patients with critically illness. It is very important for reduction of the maternal mortality rate through strengthening preconception care and antenatal care.
