Objective:Mesenchymal stem cells( MSCs) have self-renewal capacity and potential to differentiate into the cells.It was reported that the expression of miR-30a changed in some immune diseases.But it remains unclear the effect of miR-30a on the im-munoregulatory functions of MSCs.Here we studied the impact of miR-30a on the phenotype,cell viability,apoptosis,cell cycle and im-munoregulatory functions of MSCs.Methods: The mixed enzyme methods were used for the isolation of human umbilical cord MSCs.Flow cytometry(FCM)was used to investigate the effect of overexpressed miR-30a on the phenotype of MSCs.CCK-8 was used to examine the cell viability of miR-30a-overexpressed MSCs.Annexin V/PI was used for the detection of apoptosis of MSCs.Q-PCR and Western blot were used to investigate the effect of miR-30a on the expression of Cyclin E2( CCNE2).CCNE2 was one putative target of miR-30a predicted by Targetscan database.The effects of miR-30a-overexpressed MSCs on the maturation of dendritic cells(DCs)were determined.Results:Overexpression of miR-30a blocked the cell cycle of MSCs in the G0/G1 phase by inhibiting the expression of CCNE2,but did not affect the phenotype, cell viability and apoptosis of MSCs.When co-cultured with DCs, although MSCs down-regulated the expression of CD40 and CD86 on DCs,overexpression of miR-30a more significantly enhanced the suppressive impact of MSCs on the maturation of DCs.Conclusion: miR-30a affects the cell cycle of MSCs and enhances its immunosuppressive effect on DCs.

Methods Between January 2013 and May 2014 respiratory endotracheal intubation implementation of mechanical ventilation with intensive medicine successful withdraw machine pulled out of 135 patients with tracheal intubation, they were divided into group A(68 cases) and group B(67 cases) by random digits table method. The patients in group A were treated with buoy type oxygen device, group B with active airway moist heat treatment unit. The breathing rate, PaO2, SpO2, heart rate, Clinical Pulmonary Infection Score(CPIS) were measured after 72 h of pull out endotracheal intubation in two groups. Sputum viscosity was evaluated by Airway Secretions Score before pull out endotracheal intubation and after 24, 48, 72 h of pull out endotracheal intubation in two groups. Results There were no significant differences between two groups in gender, age, clinical diagnosis, mechanical ventilation time, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation systemⅡrating etc (P>0.05). The breathing rate, heart rate and CPIS score respectively (20.94 ± 0.89), (80.79±4.67) times/min and (7.13 ± 2.54) points after 72 h of pull out endotracheal intubation in group B, and (24.12 ± 0.97), (86.32 ± 5.12) times/min and (8.79±3.56) points in group A, and there were significant differences(t=5.113, 7.298, 5.597, all P<0.01). PaO2, SpO2 were (93.24±1.96) mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), 0.973 2±0.014 8 in group B, and (87.35±2.32) mmHg, 0.937 8±0.013 2 in group A, and there were significant differences(t=9.279, 4.548, all P<0.01). There was no significant difference in sputum viscosity before pull out endotracheal intubation between two groups (P>0.05). After 24, 48 and 72 h of pull out endotracheal intubation, group B of patients with sputum viscosity was suitable in group A (Z=-2.684,-2.870,-2.771, all P < 0.01). Conclusions Mechanical ventilation in patients with ventilator buoy type oxygen device for the pull out after endotracheal intubation success does not favor the sputum drainage, improve patients with dyspnea and hypoxemia is not obvious. By positive airway plus temperature humidity to sequential therapy is helpful to correct hypoxemia, improve the patients' respiratory function, reduce the breathing difficulties, reduce sputum viscosity, promote the airway drainage unblocked, shortening the time of lung infection.
