Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics and drug sensitivity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in children. Methods The data of children with diagnosed Pseudomonas aeruginosa from 2006 to 2016 were retrospectively analysis. Results There were 14 patients who had diagnosis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, most of whom were infants and toddlers ( 78 . 6%). The common complications were disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and pulmonary hemorrhage. In 14 patients, 7 patients were cured, 4 were died, and 3 were given up treatment by their family because of serious illness. The antimicrobial susceptibility test showed that isolated pseudomonas aeruginosa had good sensitivity to aminoglycosides and quinolones. Conclusion Pseudomonas aeruginosa sepsis is more common in infants and toddlers, with high mortality. For suspected patients, the antibiotic that covers the Pseudomonas aeruginosa should be used in early antibiotic therapy.

Objective:To study the effect of IL-17 on viral myocarditis in mice. Methods:We randomly selected 20 wild type BALB/c mice as the control group,20 IL-17A-/- mice for IL-17A-/- group,20 IL-17A-/- mice for IL-17 group. Each mouse had intrap-eritoneal injection of Coxsackie virus B3 (Coxsackie virus B3,CVB3) to construct VMC model. The serum levels of IL-17 were detected by ELISA method,and Th17 cells were detected by flow cytometry. After 3 days of treatment with CVB3,100 μg IgG antibody was injected intraperitoneally in control group and L-17A-/- group,and 100 μg IL-17mAb was injected with IL-17 group. Mice myocardium was collected at 3rd,7th and 14th days,respectively,after CVB3 treatment. Pathological examination was carried out on the myocardial sections of mice and stained with H&E. Virus titer in mouse myocardium was examined. The contents of TNF-α,IL-6,IL-23 and IL-17 in myocardial tissue were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Results:We successfully constructed the model of mice with viral myocarditis. The levels of Th17 and IL-17 in serum of IL-17 group were significantly lower than those in control group and IL-17-/-group. On the fourteenth day after CVB3 treatment,the degree of myocardial tissue damage in the control group was significantly higher than that in the IL-17A-/- group and the IL-17 group(P<0. 05),the degree of myocardial injury in IL-17 mice was higher than that in the IL-17A-/- group. The virus titer of the control group was higher than that of IL-17A-/-group and IL-17 group,and the control group was increased with the increase of CVB3 treatment phase (P< 0. 05). After the IL-17mAb was injected,the virus titer of IL-17 group was higher than that of IL-17A-/- group. The levels of IL-17, IL-23, IL-6 and TNF-α in IL-17-/- group and IL-17 group were significantly lower than those in control group. The levels of IL-17,IL-23,IL-6 and TNF-αin IL-17 group were significantly higher than those in IL-17-/-group (P<0. 05). Conclusion:IL-17 is an important inflammatory factor in viral myocarditis,and IL-17 deletion can protect myocardium from viral myocarditis in mice.

Objective To study the epidemic characteristics and disease spectrum of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infected children in Zhongshan region, Guangdong province. Methods Clinical data from the children with positive EBV-DNA detected by real-time lfuorescent quantitative PCR between 2011 and 2013 was retrospectively analyzed. Results A total of 409 cases were detected with EBV-DNA positive from 3402 cases, with a total positive rate 12%, and the positive rate is 8.1%in 2011, 10.4% in 2012, 19.5% in 2013, there were significant differences among positive rate (χ2=6804.00, P<0.05). There was no statistically signiifcant difference in the positive rate of EBV-DNA between different gender (χ2=0.239, P>0.05) and different age groups (χ2=136.96, P<0.05). The positive rate of pre-school group is the highest. EBV infection can cause multiple system diseases. The most common disease caused by EBV infection was infectious mononucleosis (61.6%), followed by respiratory tract infection (26.7%), neck lymphadenitis (3.4%), idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (2.4%), etc. Among the 409 cases of EBV infection, the concurrent other pathogen speciifc IgM positive cases as MP-IgM positive (n=79), CP-IgM positive (n=47), Parvovirus B19-IgM positive (n=20), HSV-IgM positive (n=11), CMV-IgM positive (n=10), and RV-IgM positive (n=4) were found. Conclusions Infectious mononucleosis is the leading disease in children infected by EBV in Zhongshan region, the annual positive rate is increasing. Multiple pathogen speciifc IgM may be detected positive in children with EBV infection, which should be interpreted in combination with clinical status.

BACKGROUND: How to establish a stable in vitro culture system, including location of corneal limbal epithelial stem cells, in vitro sample harvest, in vitro culture, vector selection, as well as identification methods, play a key role in corneal limbal epithelial stem cells culture. OBJECTIVE: To culture the isolated rabbit corneal limbal epithelial stem cells and to identify the biological properties of cultured cells. METHODS: The primary rabbit cornel limbal epithelial stem cells were isolated and cultured with tissue inoculation using human amniotic membrane as vector. The growth features of cells were observed under an inverted microscope. The morphology of cells was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining and a scanning electron microscope. Furthermore, the monoclonal antibody AE5 and P63 two-step immunohistochemical staining were used to identify limbal epithelial stem cell protein expression. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The rabbit corneal limbal epithelial stem cells could be successfully cultured and maintained a relatively high value-added potential in vitro. Rabbit corneal limbal epithelial stem cells cultured on the amniotic membrane pull netted cellular layer. The AE5 monoclonal antibody positive rate of primary cultured cells was about 5% and P63 monoclonal antibody positive up to 90%. AE5-positive rate increased and P63-positive rate decreased with the increase in the number of subculture. The rabbit limbal epithelial stem cells can be successful culture and amplified on human amniotic membrane in vitro by limbal tissue culture method. The cultured cells maintain the characteristics of corneal epithelial cells. The rabbit corneal limbal epithelial stem cells can form grafts on the amniotic membrane.

Objective To explore the efficacy,mechanism and safety of silibinin combined with Ruangan pills(a Chinese herbal preparation)in the treatment of schistosomiasis liver fibrosis. Methods A total of 200 patients with schistosomiasis liver fibrosis were randomly divided into a control group and a treatment group,and 100 patients in each group were respectively admin-istered with oral silibinin alone and oral silibinin combined with Ruangan pills,respectively. The curative effects in the two groups were evaluated in 3 months,6 months,9 months and 12 months respectively. Results The common five clinical symptoms of schistosomiasis liver fibrosis patients significantly relieved in the treatment group 12 months after the therapy,and the total effi-ciency reached more than 75%,which were significantly higher than that in the control group. In the treatment group and the con-trol group,there was no improvement in the liver B ultrasonic classification 3 months and 6 months after the therapy(P>0.05);however,in 9 months and 12 months,the liver B ultrasonic classification in the treatment group was better than that in the control group(P<0.05,P<0.01,respectively). For the four serum indexes of liver fibrosis,there was no significant differences between the two groups in 3 months,however,in 6 months,9 months,and 12 months,there was a significant improvement in the treat-ment group compared with the control group. There were no obviously adverse effects in two groups. Conclusion Silibinin com-bined with Ruangan pills has a better curative effect in the treatment of schistosomiasis liver fibrosis.

Objective:To detect genomic aberrations and investigate the expression and clinical significance of TBX2,CHK2, and p53 in malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) tissues. Methods:We collected 63 cases of MPNST tissue samples, which were re-moved by resection and were confirmed by pathology, from January 1991 to December 2011 in Department of Bone and Sofer Tissue Tumor, Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital. Twelve fresh tumor samples with qualified DNA quality were selected from the above 63 cases of tissue samples. Genome abnormalities of 12 MPNST tissues were detected by next-generation sequencing. The protein expression levels of TBX2, CHK2, and p53 in 63 MPNST tissue samples were assessed by immunohistochemistry staining. Results:One case of TBX2 gene mutation was observed out of the 12 MPNST tissue samples. In 63 MPNST tissue samples, the protein expression rates of TBX2, CHK2, and p53 were 60.3%(38/63), 47.6%(30/63), and 30.2%(19/63), respectively. TBX2 expression was sig-nificantly correlated with AJCC (American Joint Committee on Cancer, AJCC) stage, recurrence, and metastasis (P<0.05). TBX2 expres-sion was directly correlated with that of CHK2 (r=0.254, P=0.045), and CHK2 expression was directly correlated with that of p53 (r=0.343, P=0.006). In terms of the disease-free survival and overall survival time, patients with high expression levels of TBX2, CHK2, and p53 had significantly worse prognosis than patients with low expression levels of TBX2, CHK2, and p53(all P<0.05). TBX2, CHK2, and p53 were independent prognostic factors of MPNST. Conclusion:TBX2 and its associated proteins may play important roles in MPNST development and progression. Detecting TBX2 expression may provide the theoretical basis for estimating the prognosis of patients with MPNST.

Objective:To observe the effects of allogeneic compact bone derived-mesenchymal stem cells ( CB-MSCs) on pro-liferation and differentiation of T cells,and investigate the molecular mechanisms of the immunosuppressive ability.Methods:With an established co-culture system of CB-MSCs and mouse spleen lymphocytes ( SP) in vitro,we observed the effects of CB-MSCs on prolif-eration,apoptosis and cell cycle of SP by MTS/PES assay and flow cytometry.Also,we measured the effects of CB-MSCs on regulatory T cells ( Treg) ratio and expressions of CCR5,CCR7 and CXCR3 in SP.Results:CB-MSCs could obviously inhibit the PHA-stimulated SP proliferation with a dose-dependent manner;MSCs could significantly inhibit the spontaneous apoptosis of SP and induce SP cell cycle G0/G1 phase arrest.After co-culture with SP,CB-MSCs could obviously increase the proportion of Treg in SP,down-regulate the expression of CXCR3 and CCR5,as well as up-regulate the expression of CCR7.Conclusion: Allogeneic CB-MSCs can significantly inhibit cell proliferation of SP,the mechanisms mainly involved the G0/G1 cell cycle arrest rather than apoptosis induction.In addition, CB-MSCs can exert immunomodulatory effects by increasing the Treg ratio,regulating the expressions of chemokine receptors.
