The effect on the growth and phenol degradation of the thermophilic strain BF80 by seventeen different metal ions were studied. The results showed that the metal ions certainly affected the growth and phenol degradation of the strain BF80. At the concentration of 0.01%,contrasting to the comparison,the growth and phenol degradation of the strain BF80 were restrained intensively by the metal ions of Cu2+,Zn2+,Co2+,Ba2+,Hg2+,Ni2+,Ag+,Al3+. The metal ions of Cr2+ restrained the phenol degradation of BF80 strongly while Cr2+ restrained the growth of BF80 faintly. The metal ions of Sn2+,Fe2+,Fe3+,Pn2+ restrained the growth and phenol degradation of the strain BF80 at a certain concentration,and the effect of inhibition in-creased with the increase of the concentrations of the metal ions. At the low concentration of Mn2+ or Mo2+,the growth and phenol degradation of the strain BF80 were increased,but if the concentration beyond the 0.1%,the growth and phenol degradation of the strain BF80 were inhibited. At the different concentration of Ca2+ or Mg2+,the growth of the strain BF80 were increased and the phenol degradation were accelerated,but the max rate of phenol degradation by BF80 was not influenced obviously. When the medium was added themixture of metal ions of Mo2+ and Mn2+,the strain BF80 grew better,but the rate of the phenol degradation was lower than that of single Mo2+ and Mn2+.

Objective To investigate the expression changes of SSR in the process of cardiac remodeling.Methods Myocardial infarction (MI) was induced by left anterior descending coronary artery ligation in mice to establish cardiac remodeling model.Mice subjected to isoproterenol (ISO) subcutaneous injection for 2 weeks to establish acute cardiac injury model.Mice subjected to aortic banding (AB) to establish a mouse model of cardiac hypertrophy.RT-PCR was used to detect the expression change of SSR in various cardiac remodeling models.Results The expression levels of SSR subunit 1 (SSR1) and 3 (SSR3) were significantly decreased in mice after 2 weeks of MI (P ＜ 0.05),and were also decreased in acute cardiac injury induced by 2 weeks of ISO injection (P ＜ 0.05),and reduced afterl week of AB operation (P ＜ 0.05).However,the expression of SSR1 and SSR3 increased at 2 weeks after AB (P ＜ 0.05),and sustained to 8 wccks after AB (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The expression of SSR3 and SSR1 in different models of cardiac remodeling were significantly changed,and showed dynamic changes,suggesting that it may participate in the occurrence and development of cardiac remodeling.

Objective To investigate human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV 1)specific CD8'T cell responses and related human leukocyte antigenⅠ(HLA-I)restriction sites.Methods Four Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)strains-transformed B-lymphoblastoid cell lines (BLCL)from periph eral blood monocytes (PBMC)of 4 healthy individuals were established.Using synthesized peptides in HIV-1 Gag,Vif and Nef regions as epitopes and using BLCL as antigen presenting cells (APC), the frequency of interferon-7(IFN-?)secreting cells in CD8 T cells from a HIV-infected long term nonprogressor by enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT)assay in vitro were assessed.Moreover, matching analysis of HI.A-Ⅰrestriction sites were performed.Results HIV-1 epitopes were presen ted restrictively by HLA-Ⅰmolecules in specific CD8 T cell responses,and this antigen presenting had high specificity.HLA-Ⅰrestriction sitesA03,A26,C04andC08 contributed to presentepitopes in HIV-1 C-ag region,A03 and C08 to HIV-1 Nef as well.Conclusion HLA-Ⅰrestriction sites may include A03,A26,C04 and C08 in HIV-1 Gag region,and A03,C08 in Nef region.

Objective: To evaluate the genetic toxicity of Thuja essential oil by salmonella reversion test (AMES test) and mammal micronucleus test.Methods: TA97, TA98, TA100 and TA102 were used in AMES test to evaluate the mutagenesis of Thuja essential oil.Mouse bone marrow micronucleus test was conducted to assess the chromosome toxicity of the drug.Results: Both in S9 present and absent situations, the numbers of reverse mutation of Thuja essential oil at different doses for the four strains were all less than 1-fold of that of solvent control, and the difference had no statistical significance (P>0.05), suggesting negative mutation.The micronucleus test indicated that Thuja essential oil had no influence on the rate of mouse bone marrow micronucleus (P>0.05).Conclusion: Thuja essential oil shows no obvious genetic toxicity.

Objective To study the effect of cervical disc replacement in the treatment of cervical spondylotic myelopathy(CSM).Methods 21 patients with CSM(17 cases of spondylotic myelopathy,2 cases of radiculopathy and 2 cases of acute soft disc herniation)were treated by anterior decompression and replaced by the Bryan cervical disc prosthesis. Results All cases were: followed for 4～12 months, average 8 months. The pre-operative JOA score was 8.5 and post-operative score was 15.5 on average. There were no prosthesis, curve was good. Replaced segment achieved stability and restored partial of normal ROM. There was no subsidence of implant and no worsening of pre-operative symptoms, post-operative 21 cases remained flexion/extension movement at replaced segments at latest follow up. There was no neck stiffness and restriction of movement complained by the patients. Conclusion The Bryan cervical disc replacement for the treatment of CSM has offered an excellent early clinical outcome.

Due to individual differences of the depth of anaesthesia (DOA) controlled objects, the drawbacks of monitoring index, the traditional PID controller of anesthesia depth could not meet the demands of nonlinear control. However, the adjustments of the rules of DOA fuzzy control often rely on personal experience and, therefore, it could not achieve the satisfactory control effects. The present research established a fuzzy closed-loop control system which takes the cerebral state index (CSI) value as a feedback controlled variable, and it also adopts the particle swarm optimization (PSO) to optimize the fuzzy control rule and membership functions between the change of CSI and propofol infusion rate. The system sets the CSI targets at 40 and 30 through the system simulation, and it also adds some Gaussian noise to imitate clinical disturbance. Experimental results indicated that this system could reach the set CSI point accurately, rapidly and stably, with no obvious perturbation in the presence of noise. The fuzzy controller based on CSI which has been optimized by PSO has better stability and robustness in the DOA closed loop control system.

Objective:To investigate the application of leukogenic medicine in cancer patients and standardize the use of WBC increasing medicine in a hospital. Methods:A retrospective analysis of 579 patient records from January 2014 to December in a hospital diagnosed as malignant tumor and issued WBC increasing medicine . The kinds of drugs,timing of administration, dosage,frequency of administration,the use of medication,drug combination and the choice of solvent were analysed by collecting the patients’ essential information, chemotherapy, myelosuppression etc. Results: The l white blood drugs mainly oral preparations;There were 414 rational drug use medication orders,accounting for 71. 50 percent;irrational drug use medical record 165,accounting for 28. 50% . The dosage and duration of treatment in line with requirements,and unreasonable cases mainly suitable varieties and timing of administration based,42. 42% and 27. 88% ,respectively;followed by repeated dosing and combination therapy is not suitable,13. 33% 1and 2. 73,respectively;a lower incidence of solvent choice unsuitable,is 3. 64% . Conclusion:The use of WBC increasing medicine need to be standardized in cancer patients in the hospital. Clinicians need to strengthen studying the knowledge of the application of WBC increasing medicine and use WBC increasing medicine rationally.
