AIM: To investigate the injuring effect of DMSO-soluble particles from cigarette smoke(DSP) on human umbilical vein endothelial cells. METHODS: Human umbilical vein endothelial cell line EA. hy 926 was used as target cells in the study. The growth and viability of the cells treated with various dosages (1, 2, 4 or 4 mL/L) of DSP and low dose (2 mL/L) of DSP at different time points were evaluated by MTT colorimetric assay and celllular protein assay in 96-well plates. Transmission electron microscopy study was carried out to observe the ultrastructure of human umbilical vein endothelial cells under DSP treatment.RESULTS: DSP inhibited the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cell line EA. hy 926. Under DSP treatment, the reducing cellular protein and increasing cell death(mainly necrosis) were observed in time-dependent and dosage-dependent manners.CONCLUSIONS: These results indicated that the toxic effect of DSP caused functional disturbance and structural damage of human endothelial cells.

Objective To explore the value of multivoxel 1H-MRS in the differential diagnosis of corpus callosum lesions.Methods 17 patients with corpus callosum lesions confirmed by clinical or pathological method underwent MRS examination.These patients included 2 cases of lymphoma,4 cases of Marchiafava-Bignami disease,3 cases of glioma, 7 cases of infarction,and 1 case of multiple sclerosis.MRS features of lesions were analyzed.Results 2 cases with corpus callosum lymphoma revealed significantly increased Cho peak, decreased Cr and NAA peak,towering Lip peak.Among 4 cases with Marchiafava-Bignami diseases, 2 cases revealed increased Cho/Cr and decreased NAA/Cr,1 case showed normal,1 case revealed inverted Lac peak.For 3 cases with corpus callosum glioma,NAA peak decreased or disappeared,and Cho peak increased in varying degrees.7 cases with corpus callosum infarction revealed significant inverted Lac peak, and NAA peak decreased in varying degrees.1 case of multiple sclerosis revealed increased Cho peak,decreased NAA peak,and inverted Lac peak during acute period with enhancement,while these features returned normal during inactive period.Conclusion Multivoxel 1H-MRS plays an important role in the differential diagnosis of corpus callosum lesions.

The issue as to whether hospital ownership has an impact on the quality of care has long been a serious concern.Hand hygiene (HH) compliance is regarded as an important indicator of the quality of care in the control of hospital-acquired infections.However,little information is available on whether hospital ownership influences HH compliance.In this study,of 229 hospitals selected from Hubei province in China,152 were public and 77 were private hospitals.A total of 23 652 healthcare workers (HCWs) were surveyed,using a convenience sampling.HH compliance,the WHO's "My Five Moments for hand hygiene" (5MHH),among HCWs,together with the factors of hospital ownership,training frequency,bed occupancy rates,etc.were collected.Univariate analysis and ordinal logistic regression analysis were used to analyze factors affecting HH compliance.Overall,HH compliance rates were 67％ and 79％ for public and private hospitals,respectively.The HH compliance rates of HCWs and 5MHH were between 55％ and 95％,and influenced by hospital ownership (P＜0.05),excluding compliance rate at the moment after body fluid exposure,and other influence factors included training frequency and bed occupancy rate (P＜0.05).HH compliance is better in private than in public hospitals.Hospital ownership is a significant factor affecting HH compliance,in addition to training frequency and bed occupancy rate.

Aim To probe the effect of bambuterol on experimental asthma and its pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic chracteristics,as well as its mechanism. Methods Experimental asthma model on guinea pigs was induced by histamine and ovalbumin in vivo and their trachea flake and pulmonary bar were emptied to the research in vitro respectively. Results Bambuterol inhibited asthma induced by histamine and ovalbumin in guinea pigs in a dose-dependent manner. Bambuterol gave no relaxation to all trachea flake,but the intragastric gavage(ig) of plasma of the bambuterol-treated guinea pigs relaxed trachea flake and pulmonary bar,and the effect on pulmonary bar was stronger than that on trachea flake. The peak value appeared about 4 h after administration,and the action continued for more than 24 h. Conclusion Bambuterol as pro-drug of terbutaline metabolized in body has a mild and permanent effect on the model of experimental asthma in guinea pigs.

Aiming at molybdate and boron deficient acid purple soil from main peanut cultivated areas in Sichuan,and Mo and B requirement of peanut growth,the feasibility of Co-inoculum of peanut Bradyrhizobium and molybdate and boron was studied.The tolerance to molybdate and boron of the tested strains Spr2-9,Spr4-5 was inspected.The result indicated that the two tested strains could tolerate higher concentration of molybdate than that of boron.The compound inoculum of Bradyrhizobial strain and trace element Mo was developed.The optimum concentration of Mo was 0.4%.

Three candidate antisense target sites of mouse Fas gene were screened by PARASS (poly-A anchored RNA accessible sites screening) technology. They were target at Fas gene 297nt-317nt, 618nt- 638nt and 662nt-682nt. Antisense oligos (A1, A2 and A3) and DNAzymes (D1, D2, and D3) for every target site were designed and synthesized. In vitro, the validation of the sites were judged by antisense oligos included RNase H splicing and the DNAzyme degradation. The results indicated that A1, A2 and A3 introduced RNase H degradation. DNAzymes D1, D2 and D3 cleaved Fas mRNA effectively. Neither degradation observed in antisense oligo RNase H group in non-target site (1211-1231nt) and 2 bases mismatched of A3, nor splicing occurred in DNzyme group in non-target site ( 1211-1231nt) and 2 bases mismatched of D3. Site 2 and 3 were at the same positions with those of ISIS Pharmaceuticals. The effective antisense oligos and DNAzymes for Fas gene could be used for the research subsequently.

To evaluate the role of murine fibrinogen like protein 2 (mfgl2) /fibroleukin in lung impairment in Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), a murine SARS model induced by Murine hepatitis virus strain 3 (MHV-3) through trachea was established. Impressively, all the animals developed interstitial pneumonia with extensive hyaline membranes formation within alveoli, and presence of micro-vascular thrombosis in the pulmonary vessels. MHV-3 nucleocapsid gene transcripts were identified in multiple organs including lungs, spleen etc. As a representative proinflammatory gene, mfgl2 prothrombinase expression was evident in terminal and respiratory bronchioles, alveolar epithelia and infiltrated cells in the lungs associated with fibrin deposition and micro-vascular thrombosis. In summary, the established murine SARS model could mimic the pathologic characteristics of lungs in patients with SARS. Besides the physical damages due to virus replication in organs, the up-regulation of novel gene mfgl2 in lungs may play a vital role in the development of SARS associated lung damage.

Objective To examine the association between CYP1A1 polymorphisms (MspI and Ile/Val) and esophageal cancer (EC) by systematically reviewing the risk of the original studies. Methods Data from 16 papers (8 for MspI, 14 for Ile/Val) regarding case-control studies on the association of cytochrome P450 polymorphisms and risk of esophageal cancer was analyzed by dominant model (variant genotype vs. wild-type genotype) through meta-analysis. Stratified analysis was carried out according to the pathological types. Results In systematical analysis, CYP1A1 MspI variant genotype (TC+CC) had no association with EC risk (OR=1.17,95%CI: 0.82-1.66). Similar results were observed in esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma(ESCC) (OR=1.17,95%CI: 0.82-1.69) and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) (OR=1.39,95% CI: 0.67-2.09). Individuals with the CYP1A1 Ile/Val variant genotype (Ile/Val + Val/Val) had an increased risk for EC, when comparing with wild type (Iie/Iie ), with an OR of 1.39 (95 %CI: 1.07-1.80). CYP1A1 Ile/Val variant genotype could increase the risk of ESCC (OR=1.43,95%CI:1.07-1.91) but no significant association was found with EAC (OR=1.20,95%CI:0.62-2.30). Conclusion CYP1A1 gene polymorphism Ile/Val might have played a role in the development of ESCC but CYP1A1 MspI polymorphism might not be associated with the susceptibility of EC.
