Rats were subjected to 15% body surface area third degree burns combined with 2 , 4 , 6 , and 8 Gy irradiation respectively. 48 hours after injury, the DNA and RNA contents of the bone marrow, lymph nodes, spleen and peripheral blood were found to have marked reduction, which became more marked when the dosage of the radiation was increased. Furthermore, it was found that the DNA content decreased more rapidly than the RNA content and the chnage of RNA was more marked in the hemopoietic tissues than in the peripheral blood. Nucleic acid reduction occurred more severely following 2 Gy irradiation than following 15% BSA third degree burns. After the combined iujury of 8 Gy irradiation and burns, th? reduction of nucleic acids in all the above-mentioned tissues exceeded 50%.The mechanism of the changes of necleic acids in the hemopoietic tissues after combined injury of radiation and burns was discussed. Radiation played a more important role than burns in resulting in the reduction but the synergistic effect of burns could not be neglected and could be clearly demonstrated.

Salteffectinhigh-voltageassistedlaserdesorptionionizationmassspectrometry(HALDI-MS)has been studied under both positive and negative ion modes using L-tyrosine, β-cyclodextrin, α-lipoic acid, as well as the complex formed between α-lipoic acid and β-cyclodextrin as the test analytes. Compared the mass spectra obtained with and without the addition of salt, it is found that HALDI-MS can tolerate a higher amount of salt than electro spray ionization mass spectrometry ( ESI-MS) . Also, the addition of salt can enhance the HALDI-MS signal intensity of the complex ion of α-lipoic acid and β-cyclodextrin, and we suggest that such signal-enhancement effect is due to the formation of the three component complex consisting of α-lipoic acid,β-cyclodextrin and the positive ion of the salt.

BACKGROUND: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) can be induced differentiating into osteoblasts and chondroblasts, DNA methylate depressant 5-azacytidine can induce BMMSCs expressing myogenic regulating factors: Myf5 and myopoietin, which involving in the differentiation of BMMSCs into myoblasts.OBJECTIVE: Muscular traumatic fluid containing the highest protein content was screened out and co-cultured with BMMSCs,in order to explore the inductive effect on the proliferation and myogeneis of BMMSCs.DESIGN : Standardized comparative study.SETTING .:At State Key Laboratory of Trauma, Bums and Combined Injury,Institute of Combined Injury, Medical College of Preventive Medicine, Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: Muscular traumatic model was established on 18 Balb/C pure rats for the extraction of muscular traumatic fluid, the inductive effect of the fluid on BMMSC was then compared with 5-azacytidine.METHODS:This study was carried out at State Key Laboratory of Trauma,Burns and Combined Injury, Institute of Combined Injury, College of Preventive Medicine, Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from April 2001 and September 2003. Bradford colorimetric was used to detect the protein content in the muscular traumatic fluid, and the fluid with the highest protein was used to co-culture with BMMSC, whose effect on the proliferation of BMMSC was measured with MTT methods at day 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15.RT-PCR technique was used to detect the expression of myopoietin at day 6,with its myogenic effect compared with that of 5-azacytidine.fluid on BMMSC.eration of BMMSC: the proloferative activity of BMMSC in traumatic fluid genic effect of traumatic fluid on BMMSC: myopoietin could not be found expressed in traumatic fluid group, but strongly expressed in 5-azacytidine group.CONCLUSION: Muscular traumatic fluid can promote the proliferation of BMMSC, but has no myogenic effect.

Objective To evaluate the value of fecal high mobility group box-1 (HMGB 1 ) in early diagnosis and prediction of the severity of neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Methods From July 2013 to June 2015 , the neonates who had distention, vomit, or gross blood in stool and were suspected of NEC were recruited as NEC group while hospitalized children without abdominal distension, vomiting, bloody diarrhea, or other gastrointestinal symptoms were recruited as the control group. Stool samples were collected on day 1 , 3 , 5 and 7 after admission. The level of HMGB 1 was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results In the end, there were 46 cases in NEC group and 15 cases in control group. In NEC group, 29 cases were conifrmed of stageⅠof NEC by abdominal radiograph within 24 h after hospitalized, all of them were deteriorated to stageⅡphase in 4 days, and 10 cases were deteriorated to stageⅢ. Seventeen cases were conifrmed of stageⅡby abdominal radiograph within 24 h after hospitalized, 7 cases were deteriorated to stageⅢ. In 17 stageⅢcases, 11 cases received surgical treatment and 6 cases gave up. Eight cases survived and 3 died after surgery. The levels of HMGB 1 in NEC group on day 1 , 3 , 5 and 7 after hospitalized were higher than those in control group (P

Aim To investigate the role of physiological concentration of glucocorticoids on the inflammation mediator IL-6 expression in response to LPS in rat alveolar epithelial cells(CCL149).Methods The CCL149 were treated with LPS,H2O2 and glucocorticoid respectively.Flammtory mediator IL-6 protein expression was measured with ELISA,and the activity of histone deacetylase(HDAC) was measured using colorimetric HDAC activity assay kit.Results IL-6 protein levels were increased in cells exposed to 10 mg?L-1 LPS.Hydrocortisone decreased IL-6 protein expression induced by LPS.Such effect of hydrocortisone was blunt by HDAC inhibitor trichostatinA treatment(10 ?g?L-1).LPS decreased HDAC activity.Hydrocortisone increased HDAC activity.The expression of IL-6 protein induced by LPS was further enhanced by H2O2 treatment.Pretreatment with H2O2 resulted in the inhibition of antiflammtion effect of glucocorticoids.Conclusion Physiological concentration of glucocorticoids could suppress inflammatory response,and this effects requires recruitment of HDAC.Oxidants such as H2O2 may cause the failure of glucocorticoids to function effectively,and the reason may be related to the reduction of HDAC activity.This mechanism may contribute to the pathogenesis of pulmonary disorder.

Objective To observe the changes of the peripheral blood T helper (Th)17 cells/regulatory T cells (Treg) ratio in patients with anti‐tuberculosis drug‐induced liver injury ,and to explore the relationship between Th17/Treg ratio and liver function .

OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of nimesulide combined with oxaliplatin on microvessel density and immune func-tion of esophageal cancer model rats. METHODS:48 rats were selected to establish esophageal cancer model and then randomly di-vided into model group,oxaliplatin group,nimesulide group and combination group,with 12 rats in each group. 1 d after model-ing,model group was given 5% Glucose injection 1 mL via tail vein,3 times a week,and constant volume of Sodium carboxy-methylcellulose solution,once a week. Oxaliplatin group was given oxaliplatin 13.6 mg/kg via tail vein,3 times a week. Nimesu-lide group was given nimesulide 20 mg/kg intragastrically,once a week. Combination group was given oxaliplatin and nimesulide with same usage as above. The administration lasted for 8 weeks. The cancer growth,microvessel density of cancer tissue,peripher-al blood immune function index were observed in four groups. RESULTS:Compared with model group,cancer size,cancer weight,integral absorbance of cancer and positive vessel density were all decreased in treatment groups(P<0.05). The number of peripheral blood CD3+,CD4+T cells and CD4+/CD8+were all decreased in oxaliplatin group and combination group,while the num-ber of CD8+T cells was decreased(P<0.05). Compared with nimesulide group,cancer size,cancer weight,integral absorbance of cancer,positive vessel density,the number of peripheral blood CD3+,CD4+T cells and CD4+/CD8+ were all decreased in oxaliplat-in group and combination group,while tumor inhibition rate and the number of CD8+T cells were all increased(P<0.05);combi-nation group was more significant than oxaliplatin group (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Oxaliplatin combined with nimesulide can effectively inhibit cancer growth of esophageal cancer,the mechanism of which may be associated with inhibiting angiogenesis of tumor tissue and strengthening immune function.
