Objective:To obtain monoclonal antibodies(McAb) against Staphylococcal enterotoxin C2(SEC2) and establish method for detecting SEC2.Methods:The secreted SEC2 from staphylococcus aureus was used as antigen to immune BALB/c mice. Monoclonal antibodies against SEC2 were prepared by normal hybridoma technique. By identifying the characters of McAbs, the quantitative detection ELISA test method were established and were preliminarily applied.Results:Four hybridmas producing antibodies against SEC2 were obtained. IgG isotypes of four McAbs were IgG1. Their binding site was different except two McAbs that shared the same binding site.The McAbs were proved to be specific for SEC2.The sandwich ELISA method had good specificity, sensitivity and reproducibility, and it was founded to be able to detect SEC2 at concentration from 0.5 to 20 ng/ml. Its recovery ranged between 97.8% and 101%,and CV value ranged between 2% and 5%.Conclusion:The prepared McAb against SEC2 can be used for SEC2 immunoassay. This work provides a basis for controlling the quality of JINPUSU and researching staphylococcal enterotoxin.

Objective:To investigate the expression of ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 3 (RAC3) in glioma tissues and its effect on the migration and invasion of glioma cells.Methods:The expression of RAC3 in 57 glioma patients and their adjacent tissues from the First People’s Hospital of Shangqiu was detected by immunohistochemical assay. According to the experimental requirements, brain glioma cells U87MG were divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group U87MG cells were transfected with RAC3-siRNA plasmid, and the control group U87MG cells were transfected with MOCK-siRNA plasmid. RAC3 mRNA in each group was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR. The expressions of RAC3 and MMP2 in each group were detected by Western blot. Transwell was used to detect the migration and invasion ability of cells in each group.Results:The positive rate of RAC3 in glioma patients was 89.47% (51/57 cases) , and the expression rate in paracancer tissues was 14.04% (8/57 cases) . The expression rate of RAC3 in glioma tissues was significantly higher than that in paracancer tissues, with statistical significance ( P<0.01) . After siRNA transfection, mRNA expression of RAC3 in experimental group and control group was 1.23±0.20 and 0.43±0.12, and protein expression of RAC3 was 1.19±0.11 and 0.23±0.08, respectively. The expression of MMP2 protein was 1.19±0.11 and 0.23±0.08, respectively. The expression of MMP2 in experimental group was significantly decreased ( P<0.05) . Transwell assay showed that the number of invasive cells in experimental group and control group U87MG cells was (22±5) and (45±8) , and the number of migratory cells was (34±6) and (90±11) , respectively. In experimental group, U87MG cell migration and invasion ability decreased significantly (both P<0.05) . Conclusion:The high expression of RAC3 in glioma tissues may be related to the malignant degree of development, and affect the migration and invasion ability of glioma cells by regulating the expression of MMP2.

Deficiency, stasis, water and toxin are of great significance in the pathogenesis and pathologic evolution of chronic heart failure (CHF). Based on "deficiency, blood stasis, water and toxin", the pathogenesis and treatment of CHF were discussed in this article. It was found that in the pathogenesis, deficiency--deficiency of heart qi and deficiency of heart yang were the origin of the disease, and blood stasis, water and toxin were the markers of the disease. Among them, blood stasis was the central pathological link, and also an important mechanism that could aggravate the disease and cause a vicious cycle; water-phlegm and water dampness were the basic pathological products; toxin-heat toxin, water toxin, and stasis toxin were the final results of disease progress and product accumulation. In terms of treatment, CHF can be divided into four stages: early, middle, late and end. In the early stage, tonifying qi and regulating heart can be used for the treatment of root cause, and promoting blood circulation and water can be used for the treatment of symptoms; tonifying qi and yin and reinforcing the healthy qi, reducing blood stasis, purging turbid, and eliminating pathogenic factors can be used in the middle stage; reducing blood stasis and removing toxic materials should be used in the late stage, supplemented with warming yang and increasing urine excretion; astringing yang,generating body fluids, tonifying qi and yang should be used in the end stage. At the same time of treating by stages, attention should be paid to adhering to a holistic concept and dialectical treatment; pay attention to timing and flexible medication; adopting a combination of Chinese and Western approaches and integrating them.
