International Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2009;30(3):220-222
Objective To investigate the characteristics of aminoglycoside resistance of extend-ed-spectrum β-lactamases(ESBLs)-producing Escherichia coli(E, cold and expression of aminoglyco-side-modifying enzyme genes. Methods The minimal inhibitory concentrations(MICs) of gentamicin,amikacin, kanamycin, tobramycin, netilmicin and neomycin for 37 strains of ESBLs-producing E. Coli were detected by agar dilution. In addition, six aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme genes were amplified by polymersae chain reaction(PCR) and verified by DNA sequencing. Results MICand MIC90 of gentamicin, amikacin, kanamycin, tobramycin and netilmicin for 37 strains of ESBLs-producing E. Co-Il all excelled 256 μg/mL, the resistance rates of the above antibiotics were 78.4%, 45.9%, 72.9%,83.8%and 64.90%, respectively. However, neomycin still had powerful antibacterial activity. In ad-dition, five modifying enzyme genes, including aac(3)-Ⅱ , aac(6′)-Ⅰ b, aac(6′)-Ⅱ , ant(2″)-Ⅰ and ant(3″)- Ⅰ genes, were found in 37 isoaltes except aac(3)- Ⅰ , and their positive rates were 56.8%,27.0 %, 2.7 %, 5.4 % and 13. 5 %, respectively. Conclusion The aminoglycoside resistance of ES-BLs-producing E. Coil may be associated with the expression of aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme genes.

MicroRNA (miRNA) are a class of endogenous single -stranded non-coding RNA, which regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally by combining with the target mRNA and play a vital role in biological and pathological processes including the growth of organism , metabolic regulation, disease prediction and intervention.Thus miRNA detection is of considerable significance in disease diagnosis and the research of miRNA function.Because of the restriction factors about miRNA itself such as short sequence, low abundance and highly homologous , traditional methods for miRNA detection cannot meet the current demands due to the limitations like unsatisfactory sensitivity and complicated operation .This review summarizes the newly development about signal amplification -based methods for miRNA, including the advantages and limitations of all kinds of novel methods , and highlights the future trends as well.

Male Sprague~Dawley rats were pretreated with phenobarbital and randomly divided into 6 groups and were exposed to O2,/N2/l. 2 MAC anesthetics for I hr; NC, 21 % O2/79% N2; HC, 14 %O2,/86%N2; NH, 21 %O2/79% N2/l. 2 MAC halothane;HH, 14 %O2/86 %N2/ 1. 2 MAC Halothane; NS, 21 %O2/79%N2/ 1. 2 MAC sevoflurane; HS, 14 %O2/86 %N2/ 1. 2 MAC sevoflurnae. Liver specimens andblood were taken 24 hrs after exposure. Thenecrosls and denaturatlon of hepatocellularwere quantltatlvely estlmated by stereoscopy.Ultrastructural morphology was analysed by computer. The liver ofall rats given halothane (14%O2) had extensive centrilobu- lar necrosls and denaltlration. There were an increase in serum glutamic pyruvic transmi- nase accompnaying the morphologic damage。No marked hepatotoxicity was foundin the rats following sevoflurane expoure compared with controls. Hypoxia was the main cause of swelling of mltochondria. Results suggest that sevoflurane has less hepattc injtry than holotnane.

ObjectiveTo compare the accelerating effect of topical recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) and recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor (rb-bFGF) on wound healing after fractional CO2 laser therapy.MethodsTwenty male guinea pigs were included in this study.After hair removal and irradiation with fractional CO2 laser,the back of each guinea pig was divided into 4 regions to be topically treated with rhEGF of 10 μg/cm2 (rhEGF group),rb-bFGF of 262.51 IU/cm2 (rb-bFGF group),the combination of rhEGF and rb-bFGF (combination group),or normal saline (control group),twice daily until the healing of wound.Skin physiology parameters including elasticity index and melanin index were detected before the irradiation,7,14 and 28 days after the irradiation,and compared between the 4 groups by analysis of variance.Tissue specimens were obtained from 4 mice at the above time points and subjected to pathological examination for the observation of collagen fibers and quantification of fibroblasts.ResultsAfter fractional CO2 laser therapy,the crusts fall off completely in growth factor-treated regions,while partly in the control regions,within 3 to 7 days; the wounds healed completely in 14 to 28 days in all the groups,with the regenerating tissue being more tender and redder compared with the surrounding unirradiated tissue.The wound surface was smaller in area and redder in color in the 3 growth factor-treated groups than in the control group.At 28 days after the irradiation,the elasticity index was 262.29 ± 62.40 in the combination group,202.00 ± 65.62 in the rhEGF group,188.86 ± 35.02 in the rb-bFGF group,167.14 ± 42.49 in the control group.Statistical difference was observed in elasticity index,but not in skin melanin index among the 4 groups.Pathological examination showed a dense and organized arrangement of collagen fibers in the combination group but a sparse and disorganized arrangement of collagen fibers in the control group.ConclusionThe combined application of rhEGF and rbbFGF can accelerate the healing of wound and increase the elasticity of regenerating tissue after fractional CO2 laser therapy.

Objective To investigate the effects of target-controlled infusion (TCI)of dexme-detomidine on the median effective concentration of effect-site (Ce50 )of propofol at loss of conscious-ness (LOC)in patients.Methods Sixty-four patients,28 males and 36 females,aged 20-60 years, ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,scheduled for elective surgery,were randomly allocated to receive dexmedetomidine of 0 ng/ml (group P),dexmedetomidine of 0.4 ng/ml (group D1),dexmedetomi-dine of 0.6 ng/ml (group D2)and dexmedetomidine of 0.8 ng/ml (group D3)for 1 5 min before TCI of propofol,n =1 6 in each group.The propofol infusion was started to provide an effect-site concen-tration of 1.0 μg/ml,and increased by 0.2 μg/ml when propofol effect-site concentration and target concentration were equilibrium until LOC.Results The Ce50 (95%CI )at loss of consciousness in groups P,D1,D2 and D3 were 2.30 (2.24-2.36)μg/ml,1.92 (1.87-1.96 )μg/ml,1.60 (1.55-1.65)μg/ml and 1.41 (1.35-1.45 )μg/ml,respectively.There was a negative correlation between the effect-site concentration of propofol-induced LOC and target concentration of dexmedetomidine (r=-0.84,P <0.01).Compared with groups P,D1 and D2,the incidence of bradycardia was higher in group D3 (P <0.05).Conclusion The Ce50 of propofol-induced LOC gradually decreases with in-creasing target concentration of dexmedetomidine.Combining propofol with dexmedetomidine of 0.4 or 0.6 ng/ml that can reduce the Ce50 of propofol-induced LOC,which is suitable for induction of an-esthesia with a lower incidence of bradycardia.

Objective To evaluate the sedative interaction between dexmedetomidine and propofol.Methods Sixty-four American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 20-60 yr,with body mass index of 19.0-25.0 kg/m2,scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia,were allocated into 4 groups (n =16 each) using a random number table:different target concentrations of dexmedetomidine groups (D1-4 groups).Dexmedetomidine was administered by target-controlled infusion (TCI) with the Markku model.The target plasma concentrations of dexmedetomidine were 0,0.4,0.6 and 0.8 ng/ml in D1-4 groups,respectively.At 15 min of dexmedetomidine TCI,propofol was given by TCI with Schnider model,and the initial target effect-site concentration was set at 1.0 μg/ml.After the target effect-site and plasma concentrations were balanced,the target effect-site concentration of propofol was gradually increased in increments of 0.2 μg/ml until loss of consciousness (Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation Scale score was 1).The model of pharmacodynamic interaction was used to analyze the sedative interaction between the two drugs.Results There was no statistically significant difference in residual sums of squares fitted by using the model of pharmacodynamic interaction between the target effect-site concentration of propofol and target plasma concentration of dexmedetomidine at loss of consciousness (P>0.05).The linear dimensionless parameter of pharmacodynamic interaction was 0.The median effective effect-site concentration of propofol was 2.38 μg/ml at loss of consciousness,and the median effective plasma concentration of dexmedetomidine was 2.03 ng/ml at loss of consciousness.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine and propofol interact additively in terms of sedation.
