Objective To observe the expression levels of IL-8,IL-4,TNF-α of neonatal mouse with systemic inflammatory response syndrome(SIRS) treated by different doses of dexamethasone.Methods A total of 50 neonatal mice were randomly divided into five groups:blank control group,saline control group and treatment group A,B,C.The saline control group and treatment groups were established into SIRS models,treatment group A:a single high-dose of dexamethasone (2 mg/kg),subcutaneous injection (SC) ; treatment group B:two doses of dexamethasone (1 mg/kg,q1 2 h,total 2 mg/kg,SC) ; treatment group C:four doses of dexamethasone (0.5 mg/kg,q 1 2 h,total 2 mg/kg,SC) ;saline control group:saline of the same volume (0.4 ml/kg,SC).All mice were detected IL-4,IL-8,TNF-α by ELISA 72 hours after animal models being completed.Results The levels of IL-4,IL-8,TNF-α in saline control group and treatment group A,B,C were higher than those in blank control group respectively (P ＜ 0.05,respectively).The levels of IL-4,IL-8,TNF-α in treatment group A,B,C were lower compared to those of saline control group respectively (P ＜ 0.05,respectively),levels of TNF-α,IL-8 in treatment group B and C were lower than those of treatment group A(P ＜ 0.05,respectively).There were no significant differences in the level of IL-4 among treatment group A,B,and C (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Dexamethasone could lower the expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-8,TNF-α and anti-inflammatory factor IL-8 of neonatal mouse with SIRS,and the effect of multiple low-doses of dexamethasone on SIRS is significantly better than a single high dose.

Objective To investigate the effect of serum-deprivation on the changes of [ Ca2+ ] i and the protein release of S100A13 and fibroblast growth factor 1 ( FGF-1 ) in thyroid cancer TT cell,and to reveal the role of Ca2+in the protein release of S100Al3 and FGF-1.Methods The protein expressions of FGF-1 and S100A13 in TT cells under serum-deprivation were detected by Western blot.The released FGF-1 protein from TT cells in the supernatant fluid was detected by ELISA.Realtime dynamic examinations on the change of 1 h [ Ca2+ ] i in TT cells under serum-deprivation were detected by confocal laser scanning microscopy.Then,the effect of EGTA( 2.5 mmol/ L),BAPTA-AM (2.5 μmol/L)on distributions of the fluorescence of S100AI 3 and FGF-1 in TT cells under serumdeprivation for6 h were detected by indirect immunofluorescence.Results The expressions of FGF-1 and S100A13 in TT cells after serum-deprivation for4 h and 6 h were reduced( P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 ),but the released FGF-1 protein from TT cells in the supernatant fluid was elevated ( P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Confocal laser scanning of Ca2+ imaging indicated that [ Ca2+ ] i of serum-deprivation TT cells maintained the relative stabilization within 23 win,but the rapid rise of [ Ca2+ ] i achieved peak value 1.6 μmol/L after 30 min,and remained stable for about 17 win,and thereafter 40 win slowly dropped to a low level From 40 win to 60 win the [ Ca2+ ] i was about 0.3-0.6 μ mol/L.The average [ Ca2+ ] i was higher than that in normal group,EGTA group,and BAPTA-AM group within 1 h.The protein expressions of S100A13 and FGF-1 did not drop obviously in EGTA group and BAPTA-AM group.Conlusion The release of S100A13 and FGF-1 from TT cell under serum-deprivation is possibly related with the change of [ Ca2+ ]i.Both Ca2+-chelating agents EGTA and BA PTA-AM are able to inhibit the rise of [ Ca2+ ] i and release of S100A 13 and FGF-1 from TT cells under serum-deprivation.

Result The levels of HDL-C and HDL2-C were increased (P

According to the existing Provisions for Drug Registration (SFDA Order No. 28), applications for new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine are divided into two parts: the applications for drug clinical trial and for drug production (including new drug certificate). It will last for about 10 years from the application for drug clinical trial to get approving, and it also remains many problems and the low probability to succeed. From the sight of pharmaceutical review, there are mainly two aspects of regulatory compliance and technical issues, mainly for changes without approval of the competent authorities of the country. For example, sample preparation and approval of clinical trial process are significant changes. Technical problems are reporting incomplete data or information submitted does not comply with the technical requirements for review, such as: production process validation does not provide information, the preparation of samples for clinical trials and field inspection, production information, or the information provided does not meet the technical requirements. This paper summarizes the frequently asked questions and to make recommendations to advise applicants concerned, timely detection of problems, avoid risk, improving the quality and efficiency of the application for registration.

Clostridium difficile is a gram-positive,anaerobic spore-forming bacillus commonly found in the environment and human gut.Excessive use of antibiotics,immunosuppressive agents and chemotherapy drugs may lead to overgrowth of the toxic strain of Clostridium difficile with high resistance,which are supposed to be the major contributing factors leading to Clostridium difficile associated diarrhea(CDAD).The globally increasing incidence of CDAD,especially the outbreak of nosocomial infection caused by the hypervirulent strain in North America,arouse worldwide attention.For providing new ideas to the early diagnosis and treatment of CDAD,this review summarize the latest development on pathogenesis and rapid laboratory diagnosis of Clostridium difficile.

Small molecule covalent inhibitors, or called as irreversible inhibitors, are a type of inhibitors that exert their biological functions by irreversibly binding to target through covalent bonds. Compared with non-covalent inhibitors, covalent inhibitors have obvious advantages in bioactivity. Nevertheless, these agents may also exhibit larger toxicity once off-target effects arise. This "double-edged swords" property often leads drug researchers to avoid attaching them. In recent years, some problems such as drug resistance are difficult to be solved with reversible inhibitors leading researchers to pay more attention on the covalent inhibitors. In this review, we shall make a short summary to the recent research progress of covalent inhibitors and the interaction modes between covalent inhibitors and their target protein residues.

Inflammation is a defensive reaction and the most common pathological manifestation of dry eye.In addition,excessive inflammatory response is considered to be the most common pathogenic factor and main cause of dry eye.Currently,the active mechanism of anti-inflammatory drugs has been well-known,and topical antiinflammatory therapy for dry eye is exerting a role at certain extend.However,some adverse responses of these drugs are emerging during the treating procedure.Therefore,it is emphasized that a large sample size of and multicenter randomized-controlled clinical trial is needed to identify the different effects of various anti-inflammatory drugs for different types of dry eye diseases,which will offer a basis for standardized anti-inflammatory treatment for dry eye.

AIM: To analyze the clinical efficacy and complications of titanium mini plate internal fixation and reconstructive surgery for patients with orbital fracture.
METHODS: Fifty - seven cases (60 eyes) with orbital fracture from March 2013 to April 2014 in our hospital were researched. According to the random number table method, the patients were divided into observation group (29 cases with 30 eyes) and control group (28 cases with 30 eyes ). The control group was treated with hydroxyapatite artificial bone plate for internal fixation, and the observation group with titanium mini plate internal fixation and reconstructive surgery. The diplopia grading, grading of ocular movement disorder before and at 1, 3mo after treatment and postoperative complications ( prolapse, dislocation, infection ) were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS: In both group, all the 60 eyes were healed without scar formation. The rate of diplopia grading as grade 0 1mo postoperatively of observation group and the control groups were 63% and 40% ( P < 0. 05); diplopia grading 3mo postoperatively and the eye movement barrier obstructs 1 and 3mo postoperatively of observation group were better than those of the control group ( P <0. 05). The adverse reaction rate of observation group and control group were 3% and 20% (P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: The clinical curative effect of titanium mini plate internal fixation and reconstructive surgery has a good effect for orbital fractures, which can improve the therapeutic effect and reduce the incidence of adverse reactions.
