Objective · To analyze the clinical distribution and drug resistance of Acinetobacter junii (A. junii) and Acinetobacter lwoffii (A. lwoffii) from a grade 3A hospital in Shanghai, China, and provide the foundation for prevention and control of infections caused by them. Methods · A. junii and A. lwoffii were collected from the hospital between Aug, 2011 and Aug, 2016. VITEK2 Compact of bioMérieux (French) was used for bacterial identification and antibiotic susceptibility tests, clinical information of each strain was also analyzed. Results · 28 strains of A. junii and 58 strains of A. lwoffii were enrolled. A. junii was mainly from the departments of urology, thoracic surgery and geriatrics, and the samples were mainly sputum and urine. The resistant rates of A. junii to gentamicin, ampicillin sulbactam, piperacillin, piperacillin/tazobactam, ceftazidime, cefepime, imipenem, meropenem, levofloxacin, ciprofloxacin and cotrimoxazole were 35.71%, 3.57%, 10.71%, 3.57%, 3.57%, 3.57%, 3.57%, 3.57%, 0, 3.57% and 35.71%, respectively. A. lwoffii was mainly isolated from the departments of urology, geriatrics, respiratory and renal medicine, and the samples mainly included urine, blood and sputum. The rates of antibiotics (mentioned above) resistance were 29.31%, 13.79%, 13.79%, 6.90%, 20.69%, 18.97%, 12.07%, 15.52%, 18.97%, 31.03% and 31.03%, respectively. The levels of antibiotic resistance of these two strains were constant during the five years. Conclusion · A. junii and A. lwoffii antibiotic resistant rates were much lower than those of reported A. baumannii, the over-all antibiotic resistances of A. junii were lower than those of A. lwoffii. This study provided fundamental data for prevention or control of these two strains by empirical use of antibiotics.

Objective To explore the effect of oridonin on the endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) in colonic epithelium of ulcerative colitis (UC) mice.Methods The UC mice model was established by sodium dextran sulfate (DSS),and the intervention group of oridonin and sulfasalazine was set up,the disease activity index (DAD was measured,the colonic tissue was evaluated by histopathologidscore (HPS),and RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression of inflammatory cytokines tumor factor-α (TNF-α),interleukin 6 (IL-6),cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2),glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78),transcription factor EBP homologous protein (CHOP),activator transcription factor 6 (ATF6),protein kinase R like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) and inositol requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α).Results The expression of TNF-α,IL-6,COX-2,GRP78,ATF6,CHOP,PERK and IRE1α mRNA in the colonic epithelium of the model group were all up-regulated obviously as compared with the healthy control group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).When compared with the model group,DAI and HPS in oridonin-treated group were significantly decreased (P＜0.05,P＜0.01),which the curative effect was similar to that of the sulfasalazine group(P＞0.05,P＜0.01).The expression of TNF-α,IL-6,COX-2,GRP78,CHOP,ATF6 and PERK mRNA levels were significantly reduced in oridonin-treated group(P＜ 0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion Oridonin can alleviate colonic inflammation induced by DSS and its mechanism may be related to ERS of colonic epithelial tissue.

Objective To explore the correlation between exon region polymorphism of PPP1R3A gene and schizophrenia in Uygur Chinese population. Methods PPP1R3A gene exon region DNA amplification was performed using multiple PCR targeted capture next-generation sequencing method in 528 patients with schizophrenia and 576 healthy controls of Uyghur descent, Illumina HiSeq X Ten was used for sequencing, the symptoms of schizophrenia were assessed by positive and negative symptoms scale (PANSS). Results The allelic and genotypic distributions in rs1800000 of PPP1R3A gene between patients with schizophrenia and healthy controls had significant difference (P＜0.05), rs1799999 in genotype frequency between the female case and control groups showed significant difference (P＜0.05). Furthermore, the allelic distributions of rs8192686 between male cases and controls had significant difference (P＜0.05). Conclusion PPP1R3A gene rs1800000 may be associated with the development of schizophrenia in Uygur Chinese population; rs1799999 may be a risk factor for susceptibility of female Uygur Chinese schizophrenia; The C allele at rs8192686 may be associated with male Uygur Chinese schizophrenia.
