Objective To evaluate the role of δ receptor in reduction of hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) injury to cardiomyocytes by morphine preconditioning in rats with chronic heart failure.Methods Adult male Sprauge-Dawley rats weighing 220-250 g were used in the study.Chronic heart failure was induced by injection of adriamycin 2 mg/kg via the tail vein once a week for 6 weeks.Their hearts were removed 2 weeks after the last injection and the cardiomyocytes were isolated and cultured.The cells were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n =8 each):control group (group C); H/R group; morphine preconditioning group (group MPC); morphine preconditioning + naloxone (opioid receptor antagonist ) group (group MPC + Naloxone) ; morphine preconditioning + naltrindole ( δ receptor antagonist) group ( MPC + Naltrindole group).The cells were cultured in normal culture atmosphere in group C and were exposed in hypoxic air for 3 h followed by 1 h reoxygenation in the other groups.Morphine preconditioning was performed immediately before hypoxia in group MPC.Naloxone and naltrindole were added before morphine preconditioning in groups MPC + Naloxone and MPC + Natrindole respectively.At 1 h of reoxygenation,the cell viability ( by MTT assay),activities of lactate dehydrogenase ( LDH ) and creatine kinase (CK),and cell apoptosis were detected.The apoptotic rate was calculated.Results The cell viability was significantly lower,and the activities of LDH and CK and apoptotic rate were significantly higher in groups H/R,MPC + Naloxone and MPC + Natrindole than in group C (P < 0.05).The cell viability was significantly higher,and the activities of LDH and CK and apoptotic rate were significantly lower in group MPC than in group H/R ( P < 0.05).Conclusion Morphine preconditioning reduces H/R injury to cardiomyocytes through activating δ receptor in rats with chronic heart failure.

Background and purpose:Quinonoids can change the cell cycle distribution of tumor cells, and effect the radiosensitizing. This study aimed to investigate the radiosensitization effects, cell cycle and apoptosis of cryptotanshinone on H22 hepatoma-bearing mice. Methods:The mouse hepatoma H22 model was established, then divided into blank control group, irradiation alone group, high dose of cryptotanshinone group, cryptotanshinone (low, medium and high)+IR groups. After irradiated, observed the growth of tumor’s conditions, record epigenetic tumor irradiation time, calculated the delay time of tumor growth and enhancement factor (EF). After 22 days, mice were killed, stripped tumor, and calculated the inhibition rate. The cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were measured by lfow cytometry. Results:Cryptotanshinone (low, medium and high) groups inhibited the tumor growth better than the blank group, and had the signiifcant radiosensitizing effect. The enhancement factor was 1.22, 1.43,2.19, respectively. Cells were treated with cryptotanshinone which had significant effects on cell cycle, and induced apoptosis, which indicated signiifcant G2/M phase arrest and a decrease in S phase. Conclusion:Cryptotanshinone inhibited the tumor growth and had the radiosensitizing effects on H22 hepatoma-bearing mice. One of the mechanism may be that it might make significant G2/M phase arrest and S phase decreased, and induced apoptosis. So cells were more sensitive to radiation.

Objective To investigate the changes of pathogens distribution and antimicrobial resistance in children with urinary tract infection (UTI) in 10 years. Methods The results of urine culture and drug sensitivity in children with UTI from January 2001 to December 2003, and from January 2011 to December 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.Results In recent 10 years, there was no obvious change in the ratio of gram-negative bacteria to gram-positive bacteria. Escherichia coli was still the main bacteria causing UTI in children. The detection rate of enterococcus was signiifcantly increased from 18.3%in 2011-2013 to 7.5%in 2001-2003 (P<0.05) and it had become the second pathogenic bacteria. The isolation rate of ESBLs producing strains was signiifcantly higher in 2011-2013 than in 2001-2003 (P<0.05). The rate of Escherichia coli sensitive to imipenem re-mained at 100%and it is also sensitive to enzyme inhibitors antibiotics and nitrofuranto. Sensitivities to antibiotics were changed in different species of enterococcus. Conclusions The distribution of pathogens and antimicrobial resistance in children with UTI are constantly changing. The clinician should pay close attention to changes of epidemiology in the region and hospital and rational use of antimicrobial drugs.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of the laparoscopic radical resection and the conventional laparotomy for colorectal cancer. Methods The clinical data of 106 patients with colorectal cancer treated by surgery from March 2011 to January 2016 were retrospectively analyzed, including 55 patients receiving laparoscopic surgery (laparoscopic group) and 51 patients treated by traditional surgery (conventional laparotomy group). The clinical effects of both groups were compared. Results The operation time in conventional laparotomy group was shorter than that in laparoscopic group [(141.2 ±40.6) min vs. (192.0±32.5) min, t=7.136, P<0.05]. The blood loss of the laparoscopic operation group was lower than that of conventional laparotomy group [(81.2 ±16.5) ml vs. (168.0 ±36.2) ml, t= 16.077, P< 0.05]. The recovery time of gastrointestinal function and hospital stay time in laparoscopic surgery group were significantly shorter than those in the laparotomy group (t= 12.236, t= 9.524, all P< 0.05). There were no statistical differences in the number of captured lymph nodes, complications and the length of bowel resection between two groups (all P>0.05). There were no severe complications and death case in both groups. Patients were followed up for 10-60 months, and there were no significant differences on recurrence and metastasis between two groups (P> 0.05). Conclusion Compared with the conventional laparotomy, laparoscopic radical resection is an effective method for the treatment of colorectal cancer with small trauma, less bleeding and fast recovery, which is worthy of clinical application.
