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

Effect and safety of repeated embryo aspiration for reduction of muhifetal cervical pregnancy Was retrospectively evaluated.Three women with muhifetal cervical pregnancy successfully received conservative treatment of repeated embryo aspiration under the guidance of transvaginal ultrasound,and the gestational sac contents were aspirated completely.Local(2.5～5.0 mg injectable methotrexate,MTX) or systemic medication was used.Our findings showed that repeated embryo aspiration for reduction of cervical multifetal pregnancy could improve the coupe of disease,decrease systemic medication of MTX,and discontinue a cervical pregnancy within 8 weeks effectively and safely.However,the mminimum therapeutic dose of MTX remained to be explored.

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.

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.

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.

Objective To study the effect of liver transplantation using right liver lobe Ⅴ and Ⅷ segments with middle hepatic vein(MHV) and without main MHV on the regeneration of liver transplantation. Methods 25 pair of donors and receptors of liver transplantation were divided in to two groups:with M HV group (group A, n= 14) and without main MHV (group B, n=11). The volumes of Ⅴ and Ⅷ segments of liver were measured in donors presurgicaUy,half month and 3 month in receptors postsurgically, the rates of regeneration of the Ⅴ and Ⅷ segment were calculated half month and 3 months postsurgically and compared between two groups. Results In group A,the regenerate rates of the Ⅴ,Ⅷ segment were 0.360±0.043 and 0.853±0.059 half month after surgery,0.253±0.043 and 0.708±0.059 three months after surgery respectively. In group B, the regenerate rates of the Ⅴ,Ⅷ segment were 0.306±0.049 and 0.815±0.066, respectively half month after graft, 0.161±0.049 and 0.627±0.066, respectively three months after surgery. There were no statistically significant differences in regenerate rates of the Ⅴ, Ⅷ segment of graft be-tween the two groups (P= 0.685 ,P>0.05 and P= 0.738, P>0.05). Conclusion The right lobe living donor liver transplantation, maintaining the MHV or reconstruct MHV tributaries without MHV has similar effects on the regeneration of Ⅴ,Ⅷ segment of graft.
