A potentiometric immunoelectrode with non-labeled anticancer antigen CA 15-3 antibody used for determinating CA15-3 was reported. firstly, the anti-CA15-3 antibody was immobilized on the surface of polyvinyl chloride-bovine serum albumin membrane, which was activated previously. Secondly, CA15-3 was added on the surface of the antibody membrane to form the antigen-antibody complex. Lastly, the complex membrane was used to assemble an immunoelectrode with an Ag-AgCl inner electrode. The potential of the complex membrane was measured with a pH meter. The response was linear over the range of 15～240　U／mL with a correlation coefficient of 0.9998. Other common antigens in human serum did not interfere with the determination of CA15-3. The mechanism of potential response was explored.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of Tai Ji Quan (TJQ) training on strength and function of lower limbs in the aged.

METHODSSixty senile subjects were recruited and assigned to the TJQ group and the control group (imparting health knowledge)by random digit table. Patients in the TJQ group received 24-style TJQ training for 18 months (60 min each time, 5 times per week), while those in the control group were imparted with sarcopenia related causes, pathogeneses, prevention and control measures. The maximum isometric strength of bilateral iliopsoas, quadriceps femoris, tibialis anterior muscle, hamstrings; the time for 5 sitting-up tests and Time Up and Go Test (TUGT), one-leg standing time with closed eyes test; and the score of Berg balance scale were compared between the two groups.

RESULTSCompared with before treatment, muscle strength increased in the TJQ group with an average increased capacity (rate) as follows, bilateral iliopsoas 5.5 kg (16.9%), quadriceps femoris 5.5 kg (26.2%), and tibialis anterior muscle 8.5 kg (36.2%) (all P < 0.05). The time for TUGT and 5 sitting-up tests was shortened by 1.3 s (16.7%) and 0.9 s (14.5%) respectively in the TJQ group. The time for one-leg standing time with closed eyes test was increased by 8.4 s (left) and 9.1 s (right) respectively. The score of Berg balance scale increased by 4.3% (P < 0.05). Compared with the control group, bilateral quadriceps femoris and tibialis anterior muscle strength increased significantly (P < 0.01); the time for TUGT and 5 sitting-up tests, the time for one-leg standing time with closed eyes test, scores of Berg balance scale were all improved in the TJQ group after intervention (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONTJQ training could improve strength of iliopsoas, quadriceps femoris, tibialis anterior muscle in the aged, elevate their balance and locomotor activities, and possibly prevent and treat sarcopenia.

Objective To investigate risk factors for feeding intolerance of preterm infants under the reactive scope model guidance, and provided empirical evidence for effective prevention and treatment of feeding intolerance in preterm infants. Methods Checked the cases of 242 preterm infants been treated in the neonatal department from August 2014 to January 2015 according to the order of admission. Through literature reviewing and expert consultation, the clinical observation table was designed based on the reactive scope model, and risk factors for feeding intolerance of preterm infants were investigated by single factor analysis and logistic regression analysis from the feeding intolerance (FI) group and non-FI group. Results The incidence of feeding intolerance in preterm infants was 33.8%(70/207), feeding intolerance in preterm infants often occurred during the period of being fed within 72 hours, and the clinical manifestations were gastric retention, abdominal distension and emesis. Single factor analysis showed that gestational age, birth weight, fetal distress, aminophylline application, intrauterine infection, breast milk feeding and twice stool interval were the related factors to the feeding intolerance. Logistic regression analysis showed that gestational age and birth weight were the protective factors of FI. Fetal distress, aminophylline application, twice stool interval >3 d were the risk factors of FI. Conclusions Gestational age and birth weight were the protective factors of FI. Fetal distress, aminophylline application, twice stool interval>3 d were the risk factors of FI.

OBJECTIVE To investigate whether efflux mechanism is involved in fluoroquinolone-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains isolated in China. METHODS We compared the ciprofloxacin accumulation in clinically isolated K. pneumoniae with or without CCCP by fluorospectrophotometry. Use reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to measure the mRNA expression level of acrAB-tolC efflux gene. RESULTS The accumulation of ciprofloxacin in resistant strains was lower than that in susceptible ones, and it could increase to a high level nearly to the susceptible strains. The mRNA level of efflux gene acrA was higher in resistant strains than in susceptible ones. CONCLUSIONS Efflux mechanism is associated with the resistance to fluroquinolones in K. pneumoniae strains isolated in China and CCCP can inhibit its active efflux mechanism , which provides a sensitive method to detect the active efflux system of K. pneumoniae.

Objective To observe the evaluation value of serum high mobility group protein B1(HMGB-1) and APACHE Ⅱ score in severity degree and prognosis of the patients with acute pancreatitis(AP).Methods Sixty patients with AP were collected,including 20 cases in the mild AP group(MAP),20 cases in moderate AP group(MSAP) and 20 cases in the severe AP group (SAP).The HMGB-1 level in each group was dynamically monitored on 1,3,7 d after admission and its relationship with AP severity and APACHE Ⅱ score was analyzed.According to clinical outcomes,these cases were divided into the survival group(48 cases) and death group(12 cases),and the value of serum HMGB-1 level and APACHE-Ⅱ scores for evaluating the prognosis was analyzed.Results The HMGB-1 values on 1,3,7 d in the MAP group were(2.16±0.35),(4.34±0.96),(1.21±0.33)μg/L respectively,which in the MSAP group were(7.78 ±1.32),(10.45 ± 2.36),(6.92 ± 1.55) μg/L respectively,and which in the SAP group were(14.12±2.64),(27.53±8.19),(11.34± 2.57)μg/L respectively.The HMGB-1 levels in the SAP group were significantly higher than those in the MAP group and MSAP group,the differences were statistically significant (P＜ 0.01,P＜ 0.05);the HMGB-1 level had statistical difference between the MSAP group and MAP group(P＜0.05);the HMGB1l score on 3 d in the SAP group was increased with△3-1 HMGB1 increas(difference value of HMGB1 on 1,3 d),the both showed the positive correlation(r=0.725,P＜0.05).But the APACHE-Ⅱ score in the MSAP and MAP groups had no obvious change with the HMGB-1 level increase,the difference was not statistically significant(r=0.127,0.114,P＞0.05).Serum HMGB1 level and APACHE-lⅡ score in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The serum HMGB1 level has good correlation with APACHE-Ⅱ score in AP;their combination can serve the sensitive indicator for predicting disease condition severity and prognosis of AP.

Conclusion DcR3 siRNA can inhibit the proliferation of ovarian cancer cell line CAOV3 by recognized and degraded DcR3 mRNA.

BACKGROUND:Experiments have shown that the col agen substrate has the capability of stimulating cartilage generation, but the stimulating role of different types of col agen substrates remains controversial. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of type I and type II col agen on the biological characteristics of human chondrocytes cultured in vitro. METHODS:Human chondrocytes at passage were cultured onto the ordinary culture plates (ordinary plate), type I col agen-coated culture plates (type I plate), and type II col agen-coated culture plates (type II plate). cellgrowth curves were determined by MTT method after cells were cultured for 10 days. By ELISA, PCR, and 1,9-dimethyl methyleneblue technology, type I and type II col agen and glycosaminoglycan contents were quantitatively detected in cartilage cells 28 days after culture. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The number of cartilage cells was the highest in type II plate, which was twice of that in type I plate and five times of that in ordinary plate. Cartilage cells in type II plate secreted the least amount of type I col agen, which showed significant differences compared with the ordinary plate (P<0.01) and had no statistical y significant difference with type I plate (P>0.01). Cartilage cells in type II plate secreted the most amount of type II col agen and glycosaminoglycan, showing significant differences compared with the other two plates (P<0.01). The cartilage cells cultured in col agen plates are better than that cultured in ordinary culture plate, type II col agen culture plate is better than type I col agen culture plate in maintaining cellshape, extending the dedifferentiation pattern, and promoting celldifferentiation.
