Objective To observe the effect of maternal deprivation(MD)on learning and memory ability and hippocampal pathology and nestin expression in rats with hypoxic -ischemic brain damage (HIBD).Methods The models of HIBD SD male rats were established by the method of Rice,and were randomly divided into 2 groups:MD group and control group.In addition,the sham -operation group(sham group)models were established.The MD group rats were separated from their mother 3 hours per day from the second day after modeling to the 21 st postnatal day.After 28 postnatal days,Morris water maze was used to evaluate the learning and memory ability of the rat models.HE stai-ning was employed to observe the hippocampal pathological change in the rats.Then,the expression of nestin in the hip-pocampus was measured by the method of immunohistochemistry.Results Their body mass changes showed that quali-ty of sham group was higher than that of the control and the MD groups,and quality was improved in the control group, compared with the MD group,and the differences were statistically significant(q =9.860 8,3.880 7,5.980 1 ,all P <0.05).The water maze scores of the MD group in place navigation test and spatial probe test were much lower than that of the control group and the sham group,and the scores of the sham group were higher than that of the control group,the differences were statistically significant(all P <0.05 ).The findings of HE stain showed that the pathology in the right -sided hippocampus of the sham group was normal and neurons were well -arranged,and that of control group was minimally abnormal,and the neurons were almost arranged orderly and remained normal.While,the pathomorpholo-gy of the MD group was obviously abnormal,the neurons were arranged disorderly,many of the neurons lost.According to the immunohistochemical findings,the number of nestin -positive cells in right -sided hippocampus of the MD group was significantly less than that of the control group,and the number of nestin -positive cells of the sham group was less than that of the MD group,which showed significant differences among the groups(all P <0.05).Conclusions MD aggravated injury to learning and memory ability of neonatal rats with HIBD,and decrease the number of nestin -posi-tive cells of MD markedly,which is not good for the recovery of brain injury.

BACKGROUND:Pancreatic stelate cels transforming growth factor β1/Smads signaling pathway activation is probably a main molecular mechanism of pancreatic fibrosis. If this pathway can be blocked, the progression of fibrosis of tissues with chronic pancreatitis wil be inhibited. OBJECTIVE:To study the inhibitory effect of colchicine on transforming growth factor β1/Smads pathway in chronic pancreatitis rat models. METHODS:Healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into colchicines-treated group and chronic pancreatitis group. After successful establishment of rat models of chronic pancreatitis, the rats in the colchicines-treated group were intraperitonealy injected with colchicine 150 μg/kg daily. The rats in the chronic pancreatitis group were intraperitonealy injected with equal volume of physiological saline daily. Pancreatic tissues were colected after 3 months. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe histopathological changes of pancreatic tissue. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expressions of transforming growth factor β1 in pancreatic tissue. Western blot assay was utilized to detect the expressions of P-Smad2, P-Smad3 and α-SMA protein in pancreatic stelate cels. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Hematoxylin-eosin staining results revealed that compared with the colchicines-treated group, glandular tissue had reduced, while fibrous connective tissue and inflammatory cels had increased obviously and replaced the pancreatic gland tissue in the chronic pancreatitis group. Immunohistochemical staining results demonstrated that the expression levels of transforming growth factor β1 and the index of positive cels were significantly lower in the colchicines-treated group than those in the chronic pancreatitis group (P < 0.05). Western blot assay results revealed that the results of P-Smad2/β-actin, P-Smad3/β-actin andα-SMA/β-actin in pancreatic stelate cels were significantly lower in the chronic pancreatitis group than those in the colchicines-treated group (P < 0.05). Results suggested that colchicine could inhibit the activity of transforming growth factor β1/Smads pathway and pancreatic tissue fibrosis in chronic pancreatitis rats. Therefore, colchicine can be used as a new candidate therapeutic scheme for chronic pancreatitis fibrosis.

Objective To understand the clinical distribution situation of streptococcus penumoniae (SP) and drug susceptibility test results to provide a basis for the clinical diagnosis,treatment and prevention of SP infection.Methods Totally 416 nonrepeat strains of SP were isolated during 2010 to 2015.Their identification and drug susceptibility test were performed by using the ATB Express bacterial identification system.The results were interpreted according to the standard of CLSI 2014 edition.Results In these 6 years,SP showed the isolation peak in spring and winter;the detection rate of respiratory tract specimens reached more than 90 ％;the young children and elderly people were predominant;SP maintained high sensitivity to penicillin,amoxicillin,etc.,the difference in the sensitivity rate and non-sensitivity rate had statistical significance(P＜0.05);but SP showed high level non-sensitivity to clindamycin,erythromycin,etc.,the difference in the sensitivity rate and non-sensitivity rate had no statistical significance (P＞0.05).Conclusion Although β-lactam antibiotics such as penicillin can still be used as the first choice of therapy,but PISP and PRSP show the increasing trend year by year;therefore the antibacterial drugs should be selected according to the drug susceptibility test results.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of recombinant adeno-associated virual gene serotype 1(rAAV1) mediated transfer of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase(SERCA2a) on beagle dogs with heart failure(HF).Methods The chronic HF model was reproduced in beagle dogs by giving rapid right ventricular pacing(230 beats/min) for 30 days.A reduced rate(180 beats/min)was continued for another 30 days.Sixteen beagle dogs were divided into four groups(4 each): control group,HF group,HF+EGFP group and HF+SERCA2a group.After rapid pacing for 30 days,rAAV1-EGFP(1?1012vg/ml) and rAAV1-SERCA2a(1?1012vg/ml) were respectively delivered via intramyocardial routes,while no treatment was given to the animals in both control and HF groups.At the end of the study,haemodynamics,echocardiography and the protein expression of SRCA2a were measured respectively.The apoptosis index of cardiac myocyte was evaluated by TUNEL.Bax expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry.Results After gene transfer of SERCA2a in HF beagle dogs for 30 days,the heart function was improved along with an increase in SERCA2a expression.Left ventricular systolic function was significantly increased,including the left ventricular systolic pressure(LVSP),left ventricular maximal rate of pressure rise(LV+dp/dtmax),left ventricular maximal rate of pressure decline(LV-dp/dtmax,P

Methods The cardiac contraction function of chronic heart failure beagles were assessed by echocardiography before and after SERCA2a gene transduction. Radiation immune method was used to test the serum level of neuroendocrine factors such as Angiotensin Ⅱ, atrial natriuretic peptide, endothelin-1 and TNF-α, IL-6. Results The cardiac contraction function of chronic heart failure beagles improved greatly (P<0.05), and the serum levels of neuroendocrine factors significantly reduced after SERCA2a overexpression (P<0.05). Conclusion The vicious circle of neuroendocrine system may be blocked partially by SERCA2a overexpression.

Objective To investigate the expression of Musashi-2 and CD133 in colonic adenocarcinoma,and their correlation with the occurrence and development of colonic adenocarcinoma thereof. Methods The expressions of Musashi-2 and CD133 protein were detected by immunohistochemical method in 40 colonic adenocarcinoma samples and 15 normal colonic structure samples. The different histological types, TNM staging, lymph node metastasis, serous infiltration, distant metastasis and expressions of Musashi-2 and CD133 proteins in colonic adenocarcinoma tissues were analyzed. Results The positive expression rates of Musashi-2 and CD133 protein were 60%and 27.5%in 40 colonic adenocarcinoma samples and 26.7%and 0 in 15 normal colonic samples, which showed the significantly higher expression rates in colonic adenocarci-noma group than those of control group (χ2=4.850 and 5.156,P<0.05). There were significant differences in expressions of Musashi-2 proteins between different histological stages and TNM staging (P<0.05). The positive expression rate of Musa-hi-2 protein increased as the degree of differentiation decreased and TNM stage increased. There were significant differenc-es in expressions of CD133 proteins between different histological stages and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). The positive expression rate of CD133 protein increased as the degree of differentiation decreased and lymph node metastasis occurred. Conclusion The expression of Musashi-2 and CD133 may be related with the initiation and development of colonic can-cer, which can be used as the stem cell markers of colonic adenocarcinoma for the further study.

BACKGROUND:N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor is an ionic glutamate receptor which is closely related with the neural synaptic plasticity, and also can regulate neural synaptic plasticity. OBJECTIVE:To explore the mechanism by which N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor subunits NR2A and NR2B regulate neural synaptic plasticity after cerebral ischemia. METHODS: 60 Wister rats were randomly and evenly divided into a sham-operated group and a cerebral ischemia group. Rat models of chronic cerebral ischemia were established using the modified bilateral common carotid artery occlusion method in the cerebral ischemia group, while rats in the sham-operated group did not undergo occlusion of the common carotid artery and vagus nerve. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 0-12 hours after chronic cerebral ischemia, NR2A expression in the rat hippocampus was gradualy decreased, while the expression of NR2B reached its peak level at 4 hours after cerebral ischemia. Under the circumstance of cerebral ischemia, neither low frequency nor high frequency induced long-term potentiation. These findings suggest that NR2B exhibit inhibitory effect, while NR2A exhibit promoting effect on long-term potentiation induced by stimulation.
