Objective To examine the effect of resveratrol on the expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1)and brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)in myocardial cells of rats with acute pulmonary embolism.Methods Ninety-six SD rats were randomly divided into 2 groups:thromboembolism group (group T)and resveratrol + thromboembolism group (group TR),each group having 3 subgroups(n=1 6 each)in terms of different time points(1 h,4 h,8 h).The model of acute pulmonary embolism was established by infusion of autologous thrombi via the catheter inserted from the right jugular vein to the pulmo-nary artery.In group TR,resveratrol at 10 mg/kg (dissolved in 1%DMSO solution)was injected to the rats via the tail vein.Animals were sacrificed at 1,4 and 8 h after the model establishment.The rat hearts were harvested,fixed in 10%paraformaldehyde and paraffin-embedded.The expression levels of MCP-1 and BNP were detected by immunohistochemistry (SP method).Results Both MCP-1 and BNP were expressed in myocardial cells in group T and TR and gradually increased with time.The expression levels of MCP-1 and BNP were much lower in group TR than in group T at 4 and 8 h,with difference being statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The expression of MCP-1 and BNP tended to increase with time in both groups.Resveratrol may protect the heart tissues by suppressing the expression of MCP-1 in myocardial tissues of rats with a-cute pulmonary embolism.

AIM: To study the protective effects of crocetin on the doxorubicin-induced damage in rats with myocardial mitochondria. METHODS: Rats were given intraperitoneal injection of doxorubicin to induce cardiotoxicity. After continuous oral administration of crocetin, the rats were sacrificed, and myocardial mitochondria were isolated. The mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), O~-_2. production, the activity of respiratory chain complex IV and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX), and DNA fragmentation were determined. The expression level of COII gene was determined through RT-PCR. RESULTS: Crocetin increased the activity of respiratory chain complex IV and GSH-PX, MMP and the expression level of COII and decreased DNA fragmentation and superoxide anion radical O~-_2. production in rats with myocardial mitochondria. CONCLUSION: Crocetin may decrease the damage in rat myocardial mitochondria induced by doxorubicin.

Objective To explore the effect of dietary intervention on treatment effect and life quality of young patients with hepatitis B. Methods 106 cases of hepatitis B patients were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group, each group with 53 cases. The patients in the control group were given medication treatment and conventional diet, while the intervention group was given medication treatment plus dietary intervention. The therapeutic effect and quality of life were evaluated between the two groups 30 days after the intervention. Results 29 cases in the intervention group were cured (54.72%),while only 16 cases in the control group (30.19%) were cured. The total score of life quality in the intervention group was (69.72 ± 8.42), and (55.71 ± 8.31) in the control group. Significant difference existed in subsequent dimensionality: emotional role, bodily function,bodily pain, vitality, social function, mental health and general health between the two groups. Conclusions Clinical efficacy can be improved and quality of life can be enhanced through dietary intervention in patients with hepatitis B.

Interleukin-24 (IL-24) is a member of IL-10 family, which was cloned from human melanoma cells by the method of subtractive hybridization. IL-24 can inhibit the growth of tumor cells and angiogenesis and enhance radiation sensitivity and immune adjustment with non-toxic effects on normal cells.As a kind of cytokine with multiple anti-tumor functions, IL-24 will become a new weapon of gene therapy against cancer. The application and mechanism of IL-24 in the treatment of cancer will be discussed in this paper.

It's a multi-protein complex and not single protein that accomplish most of cellular activity.Therefore,to identify and analyze the composition of protein complex is necessary for studying the function of proteins.Tandem affinity purification technique(TAP) enables the effective purification of complex under physiological conditions without knowledge of the complex composition and function.Now,it has been adapted to analyze the composition of the protein complexes in yeast.Combined with mass spectrometry,TAP can identify the interacting proteins of target protein and offer great help for opening protein interacting network and function out.

Objective To evaluate the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonization in infants at neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) by active surveillance cultures (ASC) and the effects of mupirocin decolonization on MRSA infection. Methods Neonates adimitted to NICU of Ruian People's Hospital of Zhejiang Province, China between October 1, 2013 and September 30, 2014 underwent ASC within 24 hours of admission (ASC group). The samples from nasal vestibule and umbilicus were cultured for MRSA, and positive cultures were considered as MRSA colonization. These with negative cultures underwent repeated culture of MRSA by ASC at the 1st and 2nd week after NICU admission. Neonates admitted to NICU between October 1, 2014 and September 30, 2015 with MRSA colonization based on ASC were decolonized with mupirocin at both nasal vestibule and umbilicus twice daily for five consecutive days (decolonization group). Culture samples were obtained one day and one week after decolonization to repeat ASC. ASC was stopped if the subsequent culture was negative twice successively; and a second mupirocin decolonizaton was performed if the culture was positive. Chi-square test was used to compare the rates of colonization and infection between the two groups. Results (1) MRSA colonization and infection in ASC group: MRSA colonization rates within 24 hours, and in the 1st and 2nd week after NICU admission in ASC group were 2.2% (9/418), 3.7% (15/402) and 3.6% (13/361), respectively. Compared with those without MRSA colonization, neonates with MRSA colonization had a higher incidence of MRSA infection [13.5% (5/37) vs 3.7% (14/381), χ2=7.524, P=0.006]. (2) MRSA colonization and infection in decolonization group: MRSA colonization rates within 24 hours, and at the 1st and 2nd week after NICU admission in decolonization group were 2.8% (12/435), 2.9% (12/414) and 1.3% (5/373), respectively. The MRSA colonization rate at the 2nd week was significantly lower than that in ASC group (χ2=3.919, P=0.048). Twenty-nine cases had MRSA colonization, among which, 27 cases were decolonized once and two cases were decolonized twice, and all were successful. The rate of MRSA infection in decolonization group was 2.1% (9/435), which was significantly lower than in ASC group [4.5% (19/418)] (χ2=4.118, P=0.042). Conclusions Rate of MRSA colonization is high at NICU. Mupirocin can decolonize MRSA carriage and reduce MRSA infection in neonates.
