Aim To observe the effect of recombinant human interferon and verazole used alone or in combination in resisting respiratory synthesis virus (RSV) in vitro. Methods RSV strains were proliferated with Hela cells in Eagles solution on a 96 hole plate. The recombinant human interferon and virazole were diluted to different concentrations and were separately added in the dose of 100 ?l to each hole of the plate. After 48 hours cultured, the concentrations of the drugs for inhibiting cytopathogenic effect(CPE)of RSV were determined. Results When the concentration of interferon was ≥5 U?ml -1 and virazlole ≥24 ?g?ml -1 ,respectively,the effect of the two drugs on inhibiting the CPE of RSV was remarkable and was improved with their concentration increasing .When the concentrations of the two drugs were lower than that of their effect respectively , their united use also had obvious effect in resisting the virus. In addition, the different using methods of interferon have also different results. Conclusion Both recombinant human interferon and virazole are effective in inhibiting RSV in vitro and will bring about better effect when used in combination.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of different doses of dezocine at different administration time on analgesia after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Methods 80 patients elected from ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ grade laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomly divided into four groups,20 cases in each group.Group Ⅰ was anesthetized by intravenously injected dezocine 0.10mg/kg before the surgery,group Ⅱ was anesthetized by dezocine 0.15mg/kg before the surgery,group Ⅲ was anesthetized by intravenously injected dezocine 0.10mg/kg after stopping anesthetic surgery,and group Ⅳ was anesthetized by intravenously injected dezocine 0.15mg/kg after stopping anesthetic surgery.The postoperative pain scores were observed 1,6,12,24 hours after operation in the four groups by using visual analog scale (VAS),comfort score (BCS),and anesthesia recovery score (modified Aldrete score).Results TheVAS of the four groups 1 hour after surgery:group Ⅰ and group Ⅲ was significantly different(t =2.308,P =0.036),group Ⅰ and group Ⅳ was significantly different (t =2.106,P =0.042),group Ⅱ and group Ⅲ was significantly different (t =2.711,P =0.014),group Ⅱ and group Ⅳ was significantly different (t =2.317,P =0.037).The BCS 1 hour after surgery:group Ⅰ and group Ⅲ was significantly different(t =2.108,P =0.042),group Ⅰ and group Ⅳ was significantly different(t =2.069,P =0.048),group Ⅱ and group Ⅲ was significantly different (t =2.353,P =0.033),group Ⅱ and group Ⅳ was significantly different (t =2.361,P =0.036).The VAS 6 hours after surgery:group Ⅰ and group Ⅲ was significantly different (t =2.084,P =0.045),group Ⅱ and group Ⅲ was significantly different(t =2.309,P =0.038),group Ⅱ and group Ⅳ was significantly different(t =2.303,P =0.040).The BCS 6 hours after surgery:group Ⅰ and group Ⅲ was significantly different (t =2.294,P =0.041),group Ⅱ and group Ⅲ was significantly different(t =2.322,P =0.035),group Ⅱ and group Ⅳ was significantly different (t =2.070,P =0.048).The BCS 12 hours after surgery:group Ⅱ and group Ⅲ was significantly different(t =2.518,P =0.047).VAS and BCS scores at other time points had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The analgesic after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery using dezocine 0.10mg/kg-0.15mg/kg,especially 0.15mg/kg administered anesthesia before surgery,can effectively relieve postoperative pain and improve postoperative comfort,reduce postoperative analgesic(pain pump) and has less adverse reactions,which is worthy of promotion.

Objective To evaluate the effect of a protein kinase CK2 inhibitor on intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species and DNA double?stand break in human non?small cell lung cancer H460 cells. Methods H460 cells were exposed to 0, 12?5, 25.0, and 50.0μmol/L quinalizarin, a specific inhibitor of protein kinase CK2, for 24 hours. The changes in protein and mRNA levels of CK2 subunits were measured. Flow cytometry was used to measure changes in the intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species in H460 cells after 4 or 24 hours of quinalizarin treatment. Immunofluorescence assays were performed to determine the effect of the CK2 inhibitor onγ?H2 AX expression and the average fluorescent number ofγ?H2 AX foci in H460 cells. Comparison was made by analysis of variance and t test. Results There were no significant differences in protein or mRNA levels of CK2 subunits in H460 cells after quinalizarin treatment ( CK2α,0μmol vs. 12?5 μmol/L, P=0?966;0 μmol/L vs. 25 μmol/L, P=0?355;0 μmol/L vs. 50 μmol/L, P=0?864, CK2α’ , 0 μmol/L vs. 12?5μmol/L,P=0?409;0μmol/L vs. 25μmol/L,P=0?833;0μmol/L vs. 50 μmol/L, P=0?0. 746, CK2β, 0 μmol/L vs. 12?5 μmol/L, P=0?532;0 μmol/L vs. 25 μmol/L, P=0?830;0 μmol/L vs. 50 μmol/L, P= 0?061 ) . The intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species were substantially elevated in H460 cells with the increase in quinalizarin concentration and treatment time. Different concentrations of quinalizarin resulted in dose?and time?dependent increases in the numbers of γ?H2 AX foci after 4 and 24 hours of treatment ( treated by Quianlizarin for 4 or 24 h, 0 μmol/L vs. 12?5μmol/L,12?5 μmol/L vs. 25 μmol/L, 25 μmol/L vs. 50 μmol/L, all P=0?000, concentration is 12?5μmol/L,25 μmol/L or 50 μmol/L, 4 h vs. 24 h, all all P=0?000 ) . Conclusions Quinalizarin can increase the intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species and DNA double?stand break in H460 cells by inhibition of protein kinase CK2 activity. This study provides a theoretical basis for using quinalizarin as a potential radiosensitizer for lung cancer.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the therapeutic effect of Dachaihutang on the development of atherosclerosis (AS) in rabbits and its possible mechanism by detecting the expression level of carnitine patmitoyl transferase-1 (CPT-1) in vascular smooth muscle layer of atherosclerotic rabbits, and search the new way and evidence for AS cures.

METHODThirty six male New Zealand white rabbits were divided randomly into control group, model control group, simvastatin group and Chinese traditional medicine dachaihutang group. After 9 weeks and 20 weeks of treatment, serum total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels were examined. At the end of 25 th weeks, histological changes in ascending aorta were studied by HE staining and histomorphometric analysis. The gene expression of CPT-1 in vascular smooth muscle layer of thoracic aorta was detected by semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).

RESULTCompared with model control group, in dachaihutang group serum TC and TG and LDL levels attenuated. Pathomorphology indicated that intima and media (I + M) became thinned, and the ratios of the thickness of intima to media(I/M) and the area of intima to media (SI/SM) were decreased (P < 0.05). Aortic intimal proliferation in Dachaihutang group was associated with a marked increase in CPT-1 expression in vascular smooth muscle layer of thoracic aorta. Compared to simvastatin group, except TG value, other values were higher in Dachaihutang group, however, there were no significant differences between the two groups.

CONCLUSIONThese findings suggest that early treatment with Dachaihutang not only induces a significant regression of arterial lesions of high cholesterol diet rabbits, but also has a crucial inhibited genesis and development of atherosclerosis effect by up-regulating CPT-1 expression in vascular smooth muscle layer.

AIM: To study the possibility and conditions of transplacental infection of coxsackievirus B3(CVB 3) from pregnant mice to their fetuses and newborns. METHODS: Coxsackievirus B 3 strain causing balb/c mice myocardial injury(CVB 3m )was inoculated with 10 5 TCID 50 in dose into the mother mice at 6-7 days (early gestation),9-10 days (middle gestation) and 17-18 days (late gestation) of gestation, in contrast with non pregnant mice. Some placentas and fetuses were removed by caesarean section before mothers partusing; some mothers and their babies were sacrificed after parturition, and virus isolation, serological and pathological tests were performed. RESULTS: Viramiae was observed in mother mice of late gestation inoculated with CVB 3m at a fit amount on the second day after inoculation, while no newtralizing antibody to CVB 3m was detected in blood. The virus was isolated from cardiac muscles of inoculated mother mice in different gestation and the controls. The virus was also isolated from some placentas and fetuses, and both sera and cardiac muscles of infants in the late gestation (virus titer were all 10 -2 -10 -3 ). On d 7 of inoculating virus, pregnant and non pregnant mice titers of neutralizing antibody to CVB 3m in sera were all between 1160 and 1320. Under the electromicroscopy, some cardiac muscle cells of mother or infant mice appeared with morphological changes and little hollow bubbles occured in cytoplasm. The fibers broke off, and the bright and dark belts became indistinct. CONCLUSION: The amimal model, intraplacental passage of CVB 3 from pregnant mother in late gestation to fetus in mice, is a benefitial tool to study enterovirus diseases in human perinatal period.

Objective: To understand the pollution characteristics and assess the pollution health risks of heavy metals in atmospheric PM_2.5 in Lanzhou. Methods: According to the regional characteristics of air pollution and industrial distribution characteristics in Lanzhou, atmospheric PM_2.5 was sampled monthly in Chengguan and Xigu Districts from January, 2015 to December, 2016. Detected the concentration of PM_2.5 and 12 kinds of elements (Sb, Al, As, Be, Cd, Cr, Hg, Pb, Mn, Ni, Se and Tl) by weighing method and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Enrichment factor and geo-accumulation index were used to describe the pollution characteristics, while health risk assessment was conducted using the recommended United States Environmental Protection Agency (USA EPA) model. The health risks of non-carcinogens were evaluated by non-cancer hazard quotient (HQ), the non-carcinogenic risk was considered to be negligible when HQ<1, HQ>1 meant a health risk. With a single contaminant cancer Risk value to evaluate the health risks of carcinogens, when the Risk value between 10^-6 to10^-4 as an acceptable level. Results: The daily average concentrations of PM_2.5 was 83.0 μg/m³, 77.0 μg/m³ in Chengguan and Xigu Districts, respectively, during the sampling periods, and the concentration of PM_2.5 in winter/spring was higher than summer/fall in both districts. The concentration of Al in PM_2.5 was the highest and other elements in descending order: Pb, Mn, As, Sb/Cd, Tl in both districts. Enrichment factor results showed that Al and Mn were mainly affected by natural factors, the rest of five elements were all typical man-made pollution elements and according to geo-accumulation index pollution level of Cd was the strongest in the winter. The results of health risk assessment showed that Mn had the highest non-cancer risks (HQ>1) and affected the health of the children seriously. HQ reached up to 2.44 and 1.79 in Chengguan and Xigu Districts, respectively. Pb, As, Sb, Cd had slight health impact (HQ<1), could be negligible. The cancer risks range of As, Cr were 6.33×10^-6 to 6.46×10^-5 between the acceptable level of risk (10^-6 to 10^-4), which indicated that As and Cd had potential cancer-risks. Conclusions The pollution level of atmospheric PM_2.5 and the heavy metals in it was still grim;the non-cancer risks caused by multiple metals on children deserved attention. Although the cancer risks of As and Cd were between the acceptable level of risk, the potential cancer risk still shall not be ignored.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of DNA hypomethylation on mRNA and protein expression of perforin promotor in T cells. METHODS: T cells were isolated from the peripheral venous blood of healthy donors by density gradient centrifugation. CD4(+) and CD8(+) subsets were isolated using Miltenyi beads and protocols provided by the manufacturer. Where indicated the T cells were stimulated with PHA for 24 h, then treated with 5-azaC for an additional 72 h. Genomic DNA, mRNA, and protein were isolated from untreated and 5-azaC-treated T cells. Purified DNA was treated with sodium bisulfite, the desired sequences were amplified in sequential fragments using nested PCR. The amplified fragments were cloned into bacteria DH5 alpha and 5 independent clones for each of the amplified fragments were sequenced. The expression of perforin was determined using real time RT-PCR and Western blot. RESULTS: The perforin mRNA and protein in the CD4(+) and CD8(+) subsets treated with 5-azaC were significantly higher than those in the untreated subsets (P<0.05). The results of bisulfite genomic sequencing showed that the methylation of perforin promotor was significantly reduced in the treated cells compared with the untreated cells (P<0.05). CONCLUSION The mRNA and protein expression of perforin significantly increases in the CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells treated with 5-azaC,which is associated with DNA hypomethylation of perforin promoter in T cells.
