Objective In this study,we investigate the influence on nurses professional ability by the hierarchical level training under the advanced mode.Methods By referring to advanced mode of clinical expertise,combined with impacts including the ability of nurses,seniority factors,professional titles and educational background,1 527 nurses of our hospital were divided into five ranks (including nine grades).We developed training plan,training forms and training purposes aiming at all level of training objectives.In addition,we developed a training effect questionnaire and promotion criteria.All the nurses must be evaluated and compared with the traditional nursing mode,which contained 1 486 nurses as the control.Results Within two years after the start of the experiment in the observation group,1 106 nurses had been promoted.Compared with the traditional platform-based training model,nursing assessment indicators were significantly improved by the hierarchical level of training.Quality control of care services was significantly improved and the score of patient satisfaction was significantly increased.Nurses acceptance of tiered training was improved compared to the control group,published research papers were significantly increased.Conclusions Detailed training on the layer classification of the nurses can improve the ability of nurses including specialist knowledge,interpersonal communication and humanistic care,teaching,scientific research,management and other professional skills,so as to improve nursing quality and work efficiency.

Objective:To detect the expression of upstream stimulatory factor 1(USF1) and its tempo-spatial distribution during mice teeth development. Methods: Total protein was extracted from P1 and P11 d mice first molar teeth germ, and Western blot for USF1 was undertaken. Paraffin sections of first molar teeth germs from E13, 16, 19, P1, 5, 8, 11, 21 d and 6-month-old adult mice were prepared respectively and immunohistochemical staining was carried out. Results: Western blot analysis identified one Mr 43 000 protein from P11 d mice teeth germs, but none from P1d mice. Immunohistochemically, evidently positive staining for USF1 in mice teeth germs began from P5 d, and extended to P11 d, which was mainly confined to the cytoplasm of secreting ameloblasts and odontoblasts, but no staining in bud, cap and early bell stages of tooth germ. However, after tooth eruption on P21 d, USF1 became negative again, although it was still positive in the adjacent muscles, and the same result was observed in adult mice tooth. Conclusion: USF1 is expressed in tooth germ, which localizes solely in secreting ameloblasts and odontoblasts, and its expression was quite dynamic during mice tooth development.

AIM: To explore the feasibility of using vector-based small interfereing RNA(siRNA) to inhibit the expression of MDR1 mRNA and P-glycoprotein and to reverse the multidrug resistance of drug-resistant ovarian cancer cell line.METHODS: An adriamycin-resistant human ovarian cancer cell subline OVCAR/AR was established by stepwise inducement.Another mutidrug-resistant human ovarian cancer cell subline OVCAR/MDR was established by transfecting multidrug resistant gene 1(MDR1) into ovarian carcinoma cell line OVCAR-3.Transfection of MDR1 mRNA specific siRNA expressing plasmids(pSN/mdr1a and pSN/mdr1b) into OVCAR/AR and OVCAR/MDR cells was performed using liposome transfection reagents.MDR1 mRNA expression level was quantified using real time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(real time RT-PCR).Flow cytometry(FCM) was performed to assess the expression of p-glycoprotein(P-gp).Multidrug resistant to anticancer agents was evaluated by 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide(MTT) assay.RESULTS: Basal MDR1 mRNA expression level in drug-resistant cell line OVCAR/MDR was higher than that in OVCAR/AR cell line,and was both higher than that in its parent cell line OVCAR-3.The expression of MDR1 mRNA and P-gp protein in both OVCAR/AR and OVCAR/MDR cells was inhibited dramatically by transfecting with pSN/mdr1a and pSN/mdr1b.The reversal rate of chemoresistance to adriamycin in OVCAR/AR and OVCAR/MDR transfected with pSN/mdr1a and pSN/mdr1b was 79.5% and 93.9%,compared with control group.CONCLUSION: MDR1 expression in the drug-resistant cell lines is partially inhibited by treatment with vector-based MDR1 specific small interference RNAs at the mRNA and protein level,which increases the chemotherapy sensitivity of these drug resistant ovarian carcinoma cell sublines.

Objective:To investigate the protective effect of isorhamnetin on oxidative stress injury of HaCaT cells induced by H 2O 2. Methods:HaCaT cells were cultured in vitro and treated with different concentrations of H 2O 2 (300, 600, 900, 1 200 μmol/L) for 12 h. Cell proliferation activity was detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay; SOD activity was detected by superoxide dismutase (SOD) kit and malondialdehyde (MDA) content was detected by MDA assay. The oxidative stress model was established by the selection of suitable H 2O 2 concentration. HaCaT cells were pretreated with isorhamnetin at different concentrations for 12 h, and cell survival rate was detected by CCK-8 method to determine the safe concentration of isorhamnetin for subsequent experiments. HaCaT cells were pretreated with safe concentration of isorhamnetin for 12 h, and H 2O 2 was used to interfere with HaCaT cells for 12 h. Cell proliferation activity, SOD activity and MDA content were detected. Results:With the increase of H 2O 2 concentration, the cell survival rate decreased gradually, the SOD activity decreased gradually and MDA content increased gradually. Compared with the control group, the survival rate of 600, 900 and 1 200 μmol/L H 2O 2 groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05); The SOD activity and MDA content of H 2O 2 groups (300, 600, 900, 1 200 μmol/L) were significantly different from those of the control group ( P<0.05). The oxidative stress model of HaCaT cells was established by 600 μmol/L H 2O 2. HaCaT cells treated with 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 μmol/L isorhamnetin for 12 h showed no cytotoxic effect. 20, 40 and 60 μmol/L isorhamnetin was selected for subsequent experiments. Compared with H 2O 2 groups, the cell proliferation activity in 40 and 60 μmol/L isornetin groups was significantly increased [(72.21±5.11)%, (76.08±4.91)%, P<0.05], SOD activity increased (19.81±0.38, 20.52±0.52, 15.45±3.13, P<0.05) and MDA content decreased (35.94±0.31, 22.04±0.26, 19.26±1.36, P<0.05). Conclusions:The flavonoid isorhamnetin has a protective effect on oxidative stress injury induced by H 2O 2 in HaCaT cells, suggesting that isorhamnetin may be a potential drug component in the treatment of vitiligo.
