Using the immunohistochemical method combined with tract tracing techniques, a new subdivision, the marginal division, was found in the striatum of the rat. In this subdivision, substance P, enkephaline and dynorphin B terminals were densely localized. The present study investigated the synaptic organization of the substance P-like immunoreactive nerve terminals in the marginal division. Four major types of substance P immunoreactive synapses were identified. Axodendritic and axospinous synapses were the most common ones. Compound synapses with more than two synaptic components were also observed. One axo-axonic synapse was present. Both symmetric and asymmetric substance P-like immunoreactive synapses were seen in the marginal division. The existence of asymmetric synapses, small postsynaptic dendrites and axo-axonic synapses, distinguished the substance P-like immunoreactive nerve terminals in the marginal division from those in the other part of the striatum. The characteristics and complexity of the synaptic organization suggested that the substance P-like immunoreactive nerve terminals in the marginal division probably orginate from a different source and have a different function, as compared to those in the rest part of striatum.

Objective To investigate whether catestatin (bovine chromogranin A 344-364) can inhibit the biofilm formation of Candida albicans and examine its relationship with the expression of adhesion gene HWP1.Methods Clinical strains and standard strain ATCC 10231 of C.albicans were studied.XTT [2,3-bis-(2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide] method was used to assess the ability of C.albicans biofilm formation.Antifungal activity against planktonic Candida ceils was evaluated in terms of minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) according to the description in CLSI-M27-A3.XTT assay and colony count were used to assess the effect of catestatin on inhibiting C.albicans biofilm formation.The lowest concentration showing 50 % inhibition on biofilm formation (BIC50) was decided by calculating the metabolic activity.The adhesion of C.albicans reduced by catestatin was visualized under an inverted microscope and quantified by colony count.The expression of HWP1 was analyzed by RT-PCR.One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Dunnett's T3 test were used to compare the results.Results Clinical strains and standard strain ATCC 10231 of C.albicans showed strong ability in forming biofilm.Catestatin exhibited MICs ranging from 40 μmol/L to 80 μmol/L against planktonic C.albicans cells,and BIC50 of 80-160 μmol/L in inhibiting C.albicans biofilm formation.Catestatin reduced the adhesion of C.albicans.The colony forming unit (CFU) was 27 822.22-±-2 472.74 in blank control group,while the CFU was 5 355.55± 1 264.03,11 377.78±2 232.58,17 488.89±1 136.27,22 377.78±3 521.99,and 26 044.44±1 329.57 in the presence of 160,80,40,20,and 10 μmol/L catestatin,respectively (F=147.018,P=0.001).The difference between control group and 160,80,and 40 μmol/L catestatin was statistically significant (P<0.05).RT-PCR found the expression of HWP1 in the presence of 160 μmol/L catestatin was about 12.24% of that in blank control group.Conclusions Catestatin can effectively prevent C.albicans biofilm formation.This effect may be related to the down-regulated expression of adhesion gene HWP1 by catestatin,which results in reduced adhesion of C.albicans.Promising clinical prospect is expected for this finding.

Objective To investigate the interventional effect of multidimensional strategy to reduce the incidence of neonatal ventilator-associated pneumonia.Methods The patients who were admitted to the NICU department and received mechanical ventilation (MV) for more than 48 hours from October 2012 to September 2014 were recruited. The control group received the experienced interventions from October 2012 to September 2013, neonates from October 2013 to September 2014 were recruited as the intervention group receiving multidimensional controlling strategy, including bundle care, education, pro-cess and outcome surveillance and feedback on the practices. The compliance of before-after implementation of interventions were quantitatively evaluated,and the rate of VAP was compared between the two groups.Results The compliance rate of hand hygiene and the qualiifed rate of sputum suction, oral care, drain condensation from ventilator circuit, semi-recumbent posi-tion, and preventing of stress-ulcers were increased 17.0%, 11.4%, 14.7%, 18.2%, 37.5% and 56.3% respectively after implemen-tation of multidimensional strategy, and had statistical difference (χ2=36.47-294.36,P<0.01). But the qualiifed rate of antibiotic use only was 66.1% in the post-VAP bundle phases, and showed no statistical difference before and after(P>0.05). The VAP rate was 41.7 cases per 1000 MV-days during control group and 19.7 cases per 1000 MV-days during intervention group, had statis-tical signiifcance (P<0.05). But the rate of ventilator application showed no statistical difference between two group (P>0.05). ConclusionThe multidimensional strategy can effectively prevent the incidence of VAP.
