Objective Through comparing the similarities and differences between respairing effect on rat’s gastric mucosal lesion by electroacupure (EA) at Meridian of Foot Yangming and Meridian of Foot Shaoyang, to explore the specificity of the correlation between Meridian of Foot and Stomach and the mechanism of the healing effect by EA at meridian of Foot Yangming for curing the gastric lesion. Methods Forty rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:blank group, model group, stomach tunnel group, gallbladder tunnel group. All rats (except normal group) were made model by water restraint stress (WRS). After corresponding experimental process, epidermal growth factor (EGF) and transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-?) of plasma, gastric mucous tissue concentration was detected with radioimmunoassay, and the expression of EGFR mRNA of above tissue was detected by the reverse transcriptase-polymease chain reaction (RT-PCR) method. Results The gastric mucosal lesion index of Foot Yangming group decreased significantly in comparison with that of other groups, while EGF, TGF-? of gastric mucous tissue concentration level of Foot Yangming group was obviously higher than that of model group and gallbladder tunnel group. EA oould up-regulate the expression gastric mucosal EGFRmRNA, and there was a more significant difference in the group by EA at Meridian of Foot Yangming than that in the model group and gallbladder tunnel group. Conclusion The curative effect of EA at points of Meridian of Foot Yangming on the gastric mucosa may be realized by the synthesis, secretion and release of the related EGF family factor, such as EGF, TGF-? and so on. Such special regulation of electroacupuncture on gastric mucosal tissue was related to the gene expression of EGFRmRNA, and that may be further mechanism of the curative effect of EA at points of Meridean of Foot-Yangming on gastric mucosal lesion. There existed corresponding correlation between Meridian of Foot Yangming and Stomach.

Objective To investigate the distribution and sequence conservation of Hap adhensin encoding gene (hap) in clinical isolates of nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi), to screen out and identify the predominant T-and B-cell (T-B) combined antigenic epitopes on Hap protein and to analyze their immunogenicity.Methods Sequence conservation of hap genes in NTHi strains and T-B combined antigenic epitopes were predicted using bioinformatic softwares.PCR was used to amplify the 156 bp segment at 5′-end and the 855 bp segment at 3′-end of hap gene (hap-5′-156 and hap-3′-855) and the amplified products were sequenced.Phage display systems of seven T-B combined antigenic epitopes located on the 55 aa segment at N-terminal and the 285 aa segment at C-terminal of Hap protein (Hap-N52 and Hap-C285) were constructed.Western blot assay and ELISA were performed to detect the antigenicity and immunoreactivity of different T-B combined epitopes displayed by recombinant phage PⅢ protein (rPⅢ).Results Hap protein encoded by the hap gene in NTHi was located on membrane surface.Sequences of the 156 bp segment at 5′-end and the 855 bp segment at 3′-end of hap genes extracted from different NTHi strains were relatively conservative, but many mutations were found in sequences at the middle regions of these hap genes.All of the 56 NTHi strains carried hap-5′-156 and hap-3′-855 segments and shared 92.3%-100% identities in nucleotide and amino acid sequences of these segements.Hap-N5-24 in the Hap-N52 segment as well as Hap-C4-27, Hap-C28-47, Hap-C114-129, Hap-C150-173, Hap-C200-227 and Hap-C241-267 in the Hap-C285 segment was predicted as the T-B combined antigenic epitope with a higher score and less mutations.Results of Western blot assay and ELISA confirmed that the rPⅢ-displayed Hap-C4-27 and Hap-C150-173 epitopes presented clear hybridization bands with NTHi antisera, and 96.9% (63/65) and 92.3% (60/65) of serum samples from children with NTHi infection were positive for antibodies against Hap-C4-27 and Hap-C150-173 epitopes, respectively.Conclusion The gene of hap is widely distributed in clinical isolates of NTHi.Moreover, sequences of the 156 pb segment at 5′-end and the 855 bp segment at 3′-end of hap gene are conservative.Hap-C4-27 and Hap-C150-173 are the predominant T-B combined antigenic epitopes on Hap protein, suggesting that they can be used as epitope candidates for developing multiple antigenic peptide vaccines against NTHi.

Objective To construct a ciaR gene-knockout (ΔciaR) mutant of Streptococcus pneu-moniae ( S. pneumoniae) and to investigate the effects of CiaR in CiaH/CiaR, a streptococcal two-component signal-transducing system, on the expression of genes encoding penicillin-binding proteins ( pbps genes) and cia-dependent small RNAs (csRNAs). Methods Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (ESMA) was per-formed to detect the recombinant CiaR (rCiaR)-binding pbps genes. A suicide plasmid pEVP3ciaR for ciaR gene knockout was constructed and then aΔciaR mutant was obtained through homologous recombination and insertion inactivation of the suicide plasmid, and screening with chloromycin. The mutant was identified using PCR and sequencing analysis. E-test was used to detect the minimal inhibitory concentrations ( MIC) of penicillin ( PCN) and cefotaxime ( CTX) against S. pneumoniae strains. Changes and differences in the expression of pbps genes and csRNAs in theΔciaR mutant and its wild-type strain before and after treatment with 1/4 MIC of PCN or CTX were detected using real-time quantitative RT-PCR. Results The rCiaR could bind to the promoter regions in pbp1a, pbp1b and pbp2b genes of S. pneumoniae. The ciaR gene in ΔciaR mutant was inactivated by insertion according to the results of PCR and sequencing analysis. After treatment with 1/4 MIC of PCN or CTX, the expression of pbps genes at mRNA level ( pbps-mRNAs) in theΔciaR mu-tant was significantly increased (P<0. 05), but the levels of csRNAs were significantly decreased (P<0. 05);whereas a significantly decreased pbps-mRNAs (P<0. 05) and increased csRNAs (P<0. 05) were observed in its wild-type strain. The result of E-test showed that the MICs of PCN and CTX against ΔciaR mutant were increased by 250-fold as compared with those against its wild-type strain. Conclusion The CiaR can enhance the drug resistance of S. pneumoniae to PCN and CTX through down-regulating the expres-sion of PBP1a, PBP1b and PBP2b and up-regulating the expression of csRNAs to inhibit the expression of PBPs.

Background:Cytapheresis has been used gradually in the treatment of ulcerative colitis( UC),however,its efficacy is still controversial. Aims:To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of cytapheresis on UC. Methods:PubMed, Embase,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,CNKI,Wanfang and VIP database were retrieved to collect the randomized controlled trials( RCTs)using cytapheresis for UC. Article selection,data extraction and quality evaluation were conducted independently by two reviewers. Meta-analysis was conducted by using RevMan 5. 3 software. Results:A total of 20 RCTs involving 1 354 UC patients were included. The results of the meta-analysis showed that cytapheresis was superior to conventional therapy or sham procedure in inducing clinical response(RR=1. 36,95% CI:1. 20-1. 55,P﹤0. 000 01), clinical remission(RR=1. 38,95% CI:1. 15-1. 66,P=0. 000 5)and maintenance of remission(RR=2. 92,95% CI:1. 40-6. 08,P=0. 004 ),and no differences in adverse events were found( RR =0. 37,95% CI:0. 11-1. 24,P =0. 110). Conclusions:Cytapheresis has porfound effect on induction of clinical response, clinical remission and maintenance of remission,and is safe as well. However,the conclusion should be verified by more large-scale and multi-center RCTs.
