Objective To investigate the infectious features of rubella virus (RV) JR 23 strain in central nervous system (CNS). Methods RV JR 23 strain infected human primary cerebral neural cell culture in vitro and Balb/c mice, which were given dexamethasone and cytoxan before infection, via peritoneal injection. Viral pathogenecity was observed postinfection and RV antigens were detected in human cerebral neural cells by IFA and immunohistochemical method. Cerebral tissues were observed by HE staining and ABC methods postinfection.Results JR 23 strain didn't produce cytopathic effect (CPE). The proliferation of JR 23 strain reached highest titer of 10 3TCID 50 /ml at 72 h postinfection and decreased gradually. RV antigens were positive in cerebral neural cells, especially around the nuclei. Focal cytopathic areas were observed in cerebral cortical area and so did neuron necrosis around by gliacytes formed stellitorsis, neuronophagia and glial nodule. RV antigens could be seen in all cerebral area, but most localized in cortical area. Pathological features were basically the same among the infected groups. The infection rates of de xamethasone, cytoxan group and the group without intervention were 60%、90% and 50%, repectively. Conclusion RV JR 23 strain is not cytocidal to human neural cells and the pathological lesions induced by JR 23 strain in CNS of mice are mainly focal or dotted neuron necrosis.

Objective To investigate the pathological changes of gastric antrum mucosa after Helicobacter pylori eradication.Methods Total 180 cases who suffered from epigastralgia and took the endoscopic examination were randomly divided into two groups,one was Hp eradication group which included 98 cases and given anti-Hp medication treatment,and the other was control group which included 82 cases and given an expectant treatment.At the end of the study,they took reexamination by gastroscope and tests on Hp by Giemsa dyeing & rapid urase detection and on gastric antrum pathological changes by HE dyeing.Results In treatment group,atrophic gastritis as well as intestinal metaplasia decreased significantly after Helicobacter pylori eradication,but in control group,no change of atrophic gastritis was found while intestinal metaplasia aggravated.Conclusion The eradication of Helicobacter pylori is able to decrease atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia.

OBJECTIVE To explore the features,developing trend and factors of hospital infection in patients with iatrogenic injury.METHODS Retrospective surveys of hospital infections in 750 cases with iatrogenic injury were carried out in hospital between 2000 and 2007.RESULTS The incidence of hospital infection in patients with iatrogenic injury was 87.39%.Among them,hospital wound infection was the highest(87.39%),the second one was cavity infection(8.98%).The leading causative microorganisms were Gram-negative bacteria.CONCLUSIONS It is imperative to make effort to decvease the morbidity of hospital infections.We hope that the iatrogenic injury can be brought into the category of public health as soon as possible to enhance the medical care service and secure safty and health of the patients.

BACKGROUND: Human placenta is a stable source for human amniotic epithelial cells, which is becoming a cellsource in the regenerative medicine that attracts widespread attentions.OBJECTIVE: To establish the method of isolation, culture, and adipogenic, chondric and osteogenic differentiationof human amniotic epithelial cells. METHODS: Trypsin-EDTA digestion was used to isolate human amniotic epithelial cells from human amnion tissue,which were then cultured and identified in vitro. The growth curve of the cells was observed in 12 days. Passage 1human amniotic epithelial cells were induced to differentiate into adipocytes, chondrocytes and osteoblasts, andconventional cultured cells were used as controls. After 16 days induction, oil red O, Masson and alkaline phosphatesstaining methods were carried out, and adipogenic transcription factor, type Ⅱ collagen, osteopontin, alkalinephosphatase mRNA expressions were detected using real-time fluorescene quantitative PCR.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Human amniotic epithelial cells were successfully obtained from human amnion tissue.Immunofluorescence data showed the expression of epithelial cell surface marker CK19. Passage 1 cells had a strongability to divide and proliferate. Compared with passage 1 ones, passage 2 cells showed a slight decrease in proliferationability, and the proliferation ability of passage 3 cells was the worst. Red lipid droplets, brilliant blue cartilage matrix andreddish brown calcium nodes were detected by oil red O, Masson and alkaline phosphates staining after adipogenic,chondrogenic and osteogenic differentiation, respectively. With the time prolonged, the expressions of adipogenictranscription factor, type Ⅱ collagen, osteopontin and alkaline phosphatase mRNA were increased. These resultsdemonstrated that human amniotic epithelial cells could be isolated from human amniotic membrane by enzymedigestion method, and these amniotic epithelial cells could be induced to differentiate into differentiate into adipocytes,chondrocytes and osteoblasts.

The liquid-chromatography-mass technology was used in the metabolomic analysis of mouse's blood 1 hour after exhaustive exercise,in order to explore the potential mechanism of Rhodiola in fatigue elimination of exhaustive exercise mouse.The exhaustive mouse model was made by loaded-swimming.A total of 24 mice were randomly divided into theRhodiola + exercise group,exercise group andno-exercise group.The dose of Rhodiola was 0.4375 g·kg-1·d-1.The loaded-swimming was conducted after two successive weeks of medication.Blood was collected 1 h after swimming for the sample preparation.The enzyme assay and anthrone colorimetry were used to test blood lactate acid and glucose,respectively.UFLC-Q-TOF was used to detect metabolic profiles of each group.The principal component analysis (PCA),orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) and heat map analysis were used to compare differences among groups with score chart and to obtain the characteristics biomarkers by load chart.The results showed that the blood lactate acid level of theRhodiola+ exercise group was significantly lower than that of theexercise group.And the glucose level of theRhodiola+ exercise group was significantly higher than that of theexercise group.The metabolomic analysis showed that there were no obvious changes on 1,25-(OH)2D3,diacylglycerol (DG) and inositol triphosphate (IP3).All three materials in theRhodiola + exercise group were significantly lower than those of theexercise group.They were much closer to theno-exercise group.And all three materials were related to the increasing of muscle tension.It was concluded that Rhodiola had the function of promoting fatigue eliminating.This effect may be related to cell membrane protection,regulation of 1,25-(OH)2-D3→IP3,DG pathway,and relieving of muscle tension after exercises.

Objective To observe the clinical effects of irbesartan combined with ambrette capsule for treatment of mild-to-moderate proteinuria in type 2 diabetic nephropathy. Methods Foutty-six patients with diabetic nephropathy( DN),who meet the diagnostic criteria for diabetes and DN diagnostic criteria which WHO promulgated in 1999 years,were randomly divided into control group(n =23)and treatment group(n =23) . Patients in control group were administrated conventional hypoglycemic drugs,lipid,calcium antagonists step-down and diet control,while in treatment group were administrated irbesartan(75 mg,1 times/d)combined with ambrette capsule(5 pills,3 times/d)on this basis. Both the treatment duration was 8 weeks. Urine protein,blood urea nitrogen( BUN),serum creatinine( SCr)and C reactive protein( CRP)were measured respectively before treatment and 8 weeks after treatment. Results After 8 weeks treatment,the total effective rate in treatment group was 87. 0%(20/23),higher than that of control group(52. 2%(12/23);χ2 =6. 571,P﹤0. 05). The CRP had decreased significantly in treatment group( from( 11. 7 ± 0. 9 ) mg/L to( 5. 8 ± 0. 3 ) mg/L ) which compared with control group(from(10. 1 ± 0. 6)mg/Lto(9. 8 ± 0. 4)mg/L;P﹤0. 05). But BUN and SCr had no significant difference compared with pre-treatment( P ﹥ 0. 05 ). Conclusion Irbesartan combine with ambrette capsule can significantly decrease the urine protein and regulate on the micro-inflammatory state. It is worthy of popularization and application.

Objective:To observe the effect of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) on the expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL) in osteoblast cells through an in vitro breast cancer cell and osteoblast cell co-culture system. Methods:The metastatic breast cancer MDA-MB-231 or MDA-MB-435 cells were co-cultured with osteoblast MG63 cells to establish an in vitro microenvironment of bone metastasis of breast cancer. After treated with CGRP(1?108 mol/L),OPG and RANKL mRNA and protein expressions in osteoblast MG63 cells were examined by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Results:Expression of RANKL in osteoblast MG63 cells was up-regulated at both mRNA and protein levels when osteoblast MG63 cells were co-cultured with breast cancer MDA-MB-231 or MDA-MB-435 cells,while those of OPG in osteoblast MG63 cells were both down-regulated (P
