0.05). The durations between the start of infusion to the onset of SZ, DYS and ASYS were longer in group C than in group A(P

Objective: To investigate effect of Zhuanggu Granula medicated serum on proliferation and differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells(BMSCs) in vitro. Methods: Isolated BMSCs were cultured in vitro. The cells were treated with Zhuanggu Granula medicated serum, and the blank serum as the control group. The proliferation of cells was detected by MTT assay, the macroscopic histology, HE staining and immunohistoc-hemical examinations. Results: Zhuanggu Granula medicated serum effectively stimulated BMSCs proliferation (P

Objective To investigate the value of the expression of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1),peroxisome proliferator activated receptor γ(PPARγ) and sterol regulato-ry element binding protein (SREBP),adiponectin (ADPN) and liver X recepto α(LXRα) in type 2 diabetic pa-tients.Methods 71 patients with type 2 diabetes received in the hospital from June 2015 to June 2017 were se-lected as the observation group,and 60 healthy persons who underwent the health assessment from June 2015 to June 2017 were selected as the control group.Peripheral venous blood was collected from patients with an empty stomach in the morning,serum was isolated and serum human ADPN content were measured by radio-immunoassay.The levels of serum ABCA1,PPAR γ,SREBP and LXR α were measured by Enzyme linked im-munosorbent assay.Results The serum levels of ABCA1 and ADPN in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,while serum PPARγ SREBP and LXRα levels were higher than those in the control group (P< 0.05);the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of ABCA 1+ PPARγ+ SREBP+ ADPN + LXRα were higher than those of single detection of ABCA1,PPARγ,SREBP,ADPN and LXRα.Conclusion The levels of ABCA1 and ADPN decreased in patients with type 2 diabetes,while the levels of PPAR γ,SREBP and LXR α was increased.The five joint diagnosis of ABCA1+ PPAR γ+SREBP+ADPN+LXR α has high sensitivity and specificity.It was of important clinical value and worth further application.

Objective To provide scientific evidence to identify and confirm severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) by laboratory detection.Methods Multiple clinical specimens were collected serially and systematically from the 4 suspected SARS patients, which occurred between Dec.2003 to Jan.2004 in Guangdong Province. The samples were tested by serologic and molecular methods.Results IgM or IgG antibodies against SARS-CoV were detectable after 6—8 days of the onset in four patients. The four-fold or greater rising in antibodies was clearly detected in three of the four patients, while the fourth patient’s seroconversion was from negative to positive. The results analysed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay( ELISA), immunoflourescence assay (IFA), and neutralization test were highly correlated. SARS-CoV RNA was just detected in 3 throat swab specimens from case 1 by real-time PCR. M, N and S genes were amplified by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) from the positive samples. Sequencing results showed that they were SARS-CoV gene segments, and most closely matched SARS-CoV gene sequences were isolated from civet cats in Guangdong Province. Nevertheless, SARS-CoV was not isolated from any samples of the 4 patients.Conclusion Based on these results, the 4 reported cases were laboratorily confirmed as SARS cases.
