This paper is to report the exploration of the activation of Rho/ROCK signal pathway in 5-HT-induced proliferation of rat pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) and the inhibitory effect of m-Nis on this pathway. PASMCs were cultured with the explant technique. MTT assay was used to explore the proliferation of PASMCs after 5-HT treated for different time and the intervening effect of m-Nis. RT-PCR and Western blot were used respectively to explore the mRNA expression of RhoA, ROCK1 and the protein expression of p-MYPT1 in 5-HT-treated PASMCs and intervening effect of m-Nis. The results of MTT assay suggested that 5-HT (1 µmol · L(-1)) treatment for 12-72 h significantly induced the proliferation of rat PASMCs (P<0.05 or P < 0.01), which were inhibited by m-Nis (1 x 10(-5), 1 x 10(-6), l x 10(-7), 1 x10(-8) mol · L(-1)) in dose-dependent manners (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Similarly, the mRNA expression of RhoA, ROCK1 and the protein expression of p-MYPT1 were also inhibited by m-Nis in different degrees (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Thus, the results of this study suggested that Rho/ROCK pathway played an important role in 5-HT-induced proliferation of rat PASMCs, m-Nis inhibited 5-HT-induced proliferation obviously, which may be related to the blockage of Rho/ROCK signal pathway.

Objective To comparatively analyze the immunological characteristics of patients with mild and severe influenza A (H1N1), and to provide the evidence for condition monitoring and treatment . Methods 52 cases with mild influenza A ( H1N1), 152 cases with severe influenza A ( H1N1) and 26 healthy subjects from July 1, 2009 to December 31, 2009 were enrolled in the study.Lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood were analyzed by flow cytometry and the serum concentrations of interferon -γ( IFN-γ) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) were detected by enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay (ELISA).Results The total lymphocyte counts were decreased obviously in patients with severe influenza A ( H1N1) than in mild pa-tients and in healthy subjects (P<0.01).The T lymphocyte, NK cells, CD4+T lymphocyte and CD8+T lym-phocyte were also decreased obviously in severe patients than in mild patients (P<0.01).The B lymphocyte and CD4+/CD8+were also decreased in severe patients than in mild patients but had no significant statistical difference (P=0.11, 0.175).The serum IFN-γlevels in patients with mild and severe influenza A (H1N1) were lower than those in control group, especially in patients with severe influenza A (H1N1) (compared with control group and mild group , P<0.01).And the changes of serum IL-4 levels were the same with the former, but there were no statistically significant differences in three groups (P>0.05).Con-clusion Immune dysfunction in patients with influenza A (H1N1) infection is associated with the severity of disease, especially cellular immunity .Therefore, monitoring of the immune system is valuable for the diag-nosis of influenza A(H1N1) infection.

Objective To Observe and evaluate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for patients with tracheotomy using ventilator lengthening tube. Methods 75 patients with tracheotomy in our hospital from January 2017 to January 2018 were divided into the study group (n = 38 cases) and the control group (n = 37 cases) according to the random number method. The control group used conventional oxygen inhalation while the study group used the ventilator tube after prolonged special oxygen hyperbaric oxygen pipe three (built-in ventilation pipe check valve) and bellows connecting an oxygen supply device, compared two groups of patients with oxygen inhalation methods suction phlegm oxygen concentration times and cabin, every time when treating. Results The rate of oxygen inhalation in the study group was 97. 37％ (37/38) higher than that of the control group (81. 08％ (30/37)), and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0. 05). The number of sputum sucking in the study group was (1. 02 ± 0. 36) times less than that of the control group (2. 32 ± 0. 53), and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0. 05). The total time of hospitalization in the study group was (16. 4 ± 2. 4) d, and the total time of hospitalization in the control group was (21. 7 ± 3. 2) d, the difference was statistically significant(WTBX〗P＜0. 05). The score of GCS in the study group was higher than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0. 01). Conclusion The ventilator extension tube for hyperbaric oxygen therapy in patients with tracheotomy improves the oxygen concentration, ensures the curative effect, reduces the oxygen concentration in the cabin and reduces security risks; the operation method is safe, simple and practical and convenient for clinical application.
