Objective To investigate the expression of NF-κBp65 in hippocampus after the XST intervention therapy in the SD rats with global cerebral I/R injury and testify the protective effect of XST after global cerebral I/R injury.Methods 72 healthy SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups,sham operation(SO) group ( n =24),I/R group( n =24) and XST group( n =24).The model of acute global cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (including:I/R and XST group) injury was produced by means of simple Pulsinelli- brierley's four arteries occlusion method.H.E.staining was performed to detect the number of surviving neurons and TUNEL was used to detect the rate of neurons apoptosis.The expression activation of NF-κB p65 in hippocampus comu-ammonis ( CA1 ) region were examined by immunohistochemical method (SABC).Results The survival pyramidal neurons in the XST group continued to increase,and it was significantly more than the I/R group at each time-point after reperfusion[ (99.23 ±4.22)/mm vs (75.83 ±7.17 )/mm,(80.93 ± 5.36)/mm vs (51.50 ± 8.26 )/mm,(103.24 ± 5.48 )/mm vs (35.67 ± 13.17 )/mm,( 126.22 ± 7.54 )/mm vs (9.83 ± 4.71 )/mm ],the differences were statistically significant ( P ＜0.01 ).The apoptosis rate of pyramidal cell in the XST group at each time-point were more significantly reduced than the I/R group [ ( 8.82 ± 2.71 ) ％ vs ( 22.58 ± 4.68 ) ％.( 19.15 ± 6.23 ) ％ vs (42.68 ± 3.04 ) ％,( 11.82 ± 2.87 ) ％ vs ( 55.51 ± 6.81 ) ％,( 8.44 ± 3.23 ) ％ vs ( 71.69 ± 7.71 ) ％ ],the differences were statistically significant ( P ＜0.01 ).The positive neurons of NF-κBp65 expression in the XST group at different time-points were significantly less than the L/R group[ ( 13.20 ±2.50) vs ( 18.00 ± 1.87),(8.20 ±5.31) vs (41.60±3.65),(6.70±3.36) vs (55.30±5.10),(7.10±3.57) vs (72.80 ±4.71)],the differences were statistically significant ( P ＜ 0.05,P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusions After global cerebral ischemia/reperfusion,XST could protect the brain from global cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury by holding up the expression of NF- kappaB p65,and inhibiting neuronal apoptosis,and increasing the number of surviving neurons.Thus,the results of this experiment could provide a powerful and weighty objective indication for XST being used during cerebral resuscitation.

BACKGROUND: Rabbit serum samples are widely used in basic researches, and two-dimensional gelelectrophoresis (2-DE) is the most classic technique for protein separation. Therefore, it is of great significance to establish a stable technique system of 2-DE for rabbit serum.OBJECTIVE: To establish a 2-DE technique system for rabbit serum protein separation. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A single sample observational experiment was performed at Tianjin Key Laboratory of Biomarkers for Occupational and Environmental Hazard of Chinese People's Armed Police Forces Medical College from June to July in 2008. MATERIALS: Six healthy rabbits were provided by the Animal Experimental Center of Tangshan Vocational Technical College METHODS: Health rabbit serum was dissolved in rehydration sample loading buffer before and after eliminating high abundance proteins to make proteins in it schizolysis adequately. After reductive alkylation, the samples were loaded into the rehydration tray to undergo passive rehydration for 14 hours. Isoelectric focusing (IEF) electrophoresis was followed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). After sliver staining, the gel was analyzed by PDQuest7.4. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①Efficiency of eliminating high abundance proteins. ②Two-dimensional eleotrophoregrams (2-D electrophoregrams)RESULTS: Distinct 2-D eleotrophoregrems were obtained with high resolution and good reproducibility. The removal of high abundance proteins in serum failed to result in better 2-D electrophoregrams.CONCLUSION: We have successfully established a 2-DE technique for rabbit serum proteome, which can lay the foundation for the further study of serum proteomics of diseases.

OBJECTIVETo detect the contaminating minimal residual disease (MRD) in autologous peripheral blood stem cells (APBSC) and evaluate its impact on the prognosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma NHL patients.

METHODSMinimal residual disease was detected in 72 APBSC samples from 33 NHL patients through PCR or PCR combined with DNA single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis (SSCP) with the BCL-2/IgH, clonal rearrangement of IgH and TCR gamma gene as markers. Minimal residual disease was also monitored in bone marrow samples collected pre-, post-induction chemotherapy and post-transplantation.

RESULTSMRD was positive in 17/72 (23.6%) APBSC samples. The incidence of positive MRD in bone marrow pre-, post-induction chemotherapy and post-transplantation was 44.0% (11/25), 28.1% (9/32) and 11.5% (3/26) respectively. Six (66.6%) of 9 patients with positive MRD in pre-mobilization bone marrow, compared with 2 (8.7%) of 23 patients with negative MRD in bone marrow, were positive in contamination (P < 0.01). The estimated overall 3-year post-transplantation survival rate for patients with positive and negative MRD in their APBSC would be 71.4% and 71.2% respectively, and the estimated 3-year disease free survival rates of 25.0% and 61.5% respectively (P = 0.53).

CONCLUSIONAPBSC collected from NHL patients after mobilization by chemotherapy combined with colony stimulating factor may be contaminated by lymphoma cells. The presence of minimal residual disease in bone marrow at mobilization may increase the incidence of APBSC contamination.

Methicillin-anti staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) is one of the common pathogenic bacteria in hospital infection. Many asymptomatic MRSA carriers have been found in clinical practice, which can not only transmit the strain to others, but also cause secondary infection due to their own reasons. Decolonization measures can reduce the number of MRSA colonizers, thereby reducing the risk of endogenous infection and secondary transmission. Early identification is the first step to prevent transmission and secondary infection, which requires high accuracy and sensitivity of detection methods. Xpert MRSA/SA assay (Cepheid, Sunnyvale, CA, USA) may be a better choice, which can shorten the time of traditional methods, and has high specificity and sensitivity. Unlike other rapid detection methods, the Xpert MRSA/SA assay may be more suitable for MRSA colonisation detection.
