OBJECTIVETo explore the expression patterns of the chemokine CXCL12 and its receptor CXCR4 in human sperm.

METHODSWe collected semen samples from 10 fertile men, performed density gradient centrifugation, and then determined the expressions of both CXCL12 and CXCR4 in the sperm by RT-PCR and immunofluorescence staining.

RESULTSRT-PCR revealed the mRNA expressions of CXCL12 (0.641 +/- 0.180) and CXCR4 (0.464 +/- 0.100) in the sperm. However, only CXCR4 rather than CXCL12 was expressed at the protein level, and the positive staining for CXCR4 was observed mainly in the posterior part of the acrosome.

CONCLUSIONCXCL12 and CXCR4 are involved as important molecules in regulating the function of human sperm.

AIM: To investigate whether human cytomegalovirus(HCMV) regulate human embryonic lung fibroblast(HEL) cell proliferation and apoptosis by activating NF-?B. METHODS: Immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis were used to detect the NF-?B translocation and/or Bcl-2 and the levels of I-?B? during HCMV infection. Apoptotic cell were examined by flow cytometry, and the HEL cell proliferation was determined by MTT. RESULTS: The levels of NF-?B in the nucleus reached highly 48 h postinfection, and the levels of I-?B? were low 24 h postinfection. The activity of NF-?B was inhibited 120 h postinfection. The levels of bcl-2 was accorded with the activity of NF-?B. HCMV promoted HEL cells to proliferate before 72 h postinfection and induced apoptosis 120 h postinfection. CONCLUSION: NF-?B plays a role in HEL cell proliferation and apoptosis during HCMV infection, and it involves in the pathological mechanisms of diseases associated with HCMV infection.

Objective To present the means of localizing the kidney with ectopic ureter in order to provide the reliable ground for surgical strategy. Methods Clinical manifestation study,IVU,SPECT imaging and cystoscopy were conducted.All the 58 patints are female with a mean age of 3.4 years.According to the creteria presented in reference,5 were type Ⅰ,42 type Ⅲ,1 type Ⅳ,8 type Ⅴ and 2 type Ⅵ. Results Operative finding revealed the accurate localization and diagnosis rate of IVU has been 95%(40/42) in type Ⅲ ectopic ureter,B-ultrasonograph 27%(12/53),SPECT 37%(6/16).With the combined consideration of imaging procedures and cystoscopy,the accurate localization and diagnosis rate has been 98%(57/58). Conclusions Combined use of imaging procedures and cystoscopy would improve the localization and diagnosis rate.Cystoscopy is the most reliable except in type Ⅲ ectopic ureter.

AIM: To investigate the clinical value of fundus fluorescein angiography ( FFA ) and optical coherent tomography ( OCT) in the diagnosis of central retinal vein occlusion.
●METHODS:A total of 47 cases (47 eyes) central retinal vein occlusion were retrospectively analyzed from Jun. 2012 to Dec. 2015 in our hospital ophthalmology center. According to the final diagnosis, the results were divided into 21 cases of central retinal artery occlusion ( group CRAO, 21 eyes) and central retinal vein occlusion ( group CRVO, 26 eyes ) . All patients received FFA and OCT examination within 2wk of onset, and the image data of the two kinds of examination results were analyzed.
● RESULTS: Group of patients with CRAO average macular foveola thickness, angle measuring, filling time determination results were significantly lower than that of the patients with CRVO group average and the differences were significant (P<0. 05).
●CONCLUSION:FFA and OCT images of central retinal artery and vein occlusion have their own characteristics, and the combination of these two images can be used to identify and diagnose the central retinal artery and vein occlusion.

The major goal of microbial ecology is to study the structure and function of complex micro-bial communities. New molecular biological techniques have been successfully applied to analyze mi-crobial community structure. However they do not provide information on the physiologic properties of the detected microorganisms. A new tool for structure-function analyses in microbial ecology, micro-autoradiography combined with fluorescence in situ hybridization (MAR-FISH) can be used to simul-taneously examine the phylogenetic identity and the specific activity of microorganisms within a com-plex microbial community at a single-cell level. This article reviews the principle, experimental steps of MAR-FISH technique. The application of this technique in study of the environmental microbial com-munity and function is also summarized.

Virus inactivation with photochemistry is being suitable for blood or blood products, methylene blue (MB)/light treatment has been used for viral inactivation of cellular blood components. Twelve new phenothiazines derivatives were designed and synthesized, and were used to test viral inactivation and red cell damage preliminary. Results showed that compound YWW-7 has a satisfactory activity, it could be developed as a new viral inactivation agent for blood products.

The effects of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on pulmonary shunt were studied during gen- eral anesthesia and postoperative period.Twenty cholecystectomy patients were randomly divided into experiment group (group P) and control group (group Z). PEEP and ZEEP were used separately after induction. Artery blood and mixed blood from the right ventricle were taken for blood gas analysis and determine the amount of pulmonary shunting before anesthesia. half and hour, one and half an hour and two and half an hour after anesthesia and one hour after the operation.The results showed that shunt in group P decreased gradually during general anesthesia and returned to the level of preoperation at an hour after operation. Shunt in group Z was increased continually and the level was significantly higher than preoperation an hour after operation. Shunt between two groups was significant difference (P
