Objective To investigate the protective effect of mucopolysaccharide polysulfate cream(MPC) and micro needle array drug delivery technologarray(MNADDT) on the blood vessel of arteriovenous fistula.Methods Eighty cases maintenance hemodialysis patients with autogenous arteriovenous fistula were randomly divided into control group(with the treatment of MPC) and study group(with the treatment of MPC plus MNADDT),40 patients in each group.Both groups were studied for the duration of 12 months.The vascular complications of puncture pain sense,puncture failure times,phlebitis,hardening of the arteries,internal fistula stenosis or embolism,pseudoaneurysm,swollen hands comprehensive syndrome of two groups were observed,and the changes of arteriovenous fistula blood flow,blood vessel diameter by Doppler ultrasound were observed in the two groups for 12 months.Results (1)The incidence of puncture pain(2.71±0.11 vs.2.76±0.14,t=2.21,P<0.05),puncture failure times(38 times vs.73 times,χ2=11.425,P<0.05),phlebitis(2 cases vs.8 cases,χ2=4.341,P<0.05) and blood vessel sclerosis(2 cases vs.9 cases,χ2=5.446,P<0.05) of the treatment group were significantly lower than that of the control group during the study(P<0.05).(2)Blood flow of arteriovenous fistulain of control group before and after treatment were (859.7±148.3) ml/min and (946.5±169.2) ml/min respectively,and the difference was significant(t=2.356,P<0.05).While blood flow of arteriovenous fistulain,cephalic vein diameter,head of venous flow velocity of study group before and after treatment were (824.6±171.5) ml/min and (1 218.1±241.9) ml/min,(5.59±0.74) mm and (6.02±0.57) mm,(94.23±27.35) cm/s and (115.85±36.63) cm/s,respectively,and the differences were significant(t=8.212,2.382,2.877,P<0.05),there were no significantly changes in the above indexes in the study group after treatment(t=5.3612,2.152,2.281,P<0.05).Conclusion MPC plus MNADDT can reduce the vascular complications of arteriovenous fistula,improve blood vessel diameter and increase blood flow.

The authors probed systematically into the delicacy management measures adopted by the hospital in its internal mechanism reform, innovative medical service model, human resource optimization, and its performance appraisal system reform. Discussions in the paper include such topics as flat management for hospitals,intensification,centralization and integration in diagnose and treatment, as well as vertical nursing management, and the outsourced logistic services. The methods and paths to achieve these goals are summarized as “preciseness, accuracy, carefulness, and strictness”.

The region of about 4.0 kb upstream of Spodoptera litura nucleopolyhedrovirus (SpltNPV) chiA gene was sequenced, in which six open reading frames(ORF1～6) were found. These ORFs are 156, 297, 540, 369, 1281, and 228 nucleotides long, encoding the proteins of 51, 98, 179, 122, 426, and 75 amino acids with the molecular weight of 6.15 kD, 11.46 kD, 21.70 kD, 14.69 kD, 47.59 kD, and 9.09 kD respectively. One early promoter motif CAGT in ORF1 and ORF3, two early promoter motifs CAGT in ORF2, one late promoter motif TAAG in ORF4 and two late promoter motifs TAAG in ORF5 were found in 5′noncoding regions of these ORFs. The polyadenylation signals, AATAAA, are located downstream of the translation stop codon of ORF1, ORF4 and ORF5. ORF4 is the homologous gene of AcMNPV ORF53, BmNPV ORF42, OpMNPV ORF56 and LdMNPV ORF54. Compared with all genes from baculoviruses, ORF1, ORF2 and ORF6 have no homologous genes. It is suggested that ORF1, ORF2 and ORF6 may be three novel baculovirus genes.

The inhibitory effects of diallyl sulfide (DAS) derived from allicin on in vitro and in vivo proliferation of human osteosarcoma MG-63 cells and the action mechanism, and the influence of DAS on invasive capability of MG-63 cells were investigated in order to search for the novel medicines for osteosarcoma. In the in vitro experiment, MG-63 cells were treated with different concentrations of DSA, and the morphological changes of MG-63 cells were observed under an inverted phase microscope. MTT method was used to assay the proliferation of MG-63 cells. Semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the VEGF mRNA expression level in MG-63 cells. By using Transwell invasion assay, the influence of DAS on invasive ability of MG-63 cells was tested. In the in vivo experiment, the nude mice MG-63 cells tumor-bearing model was established, and different concentrations of DAS were injected beside the tumor. Twenty-one days after treatment, the mice were killed, the tumor size and tumor inhibition rate were calculated. The microvessel density (MVD) was determined by using immunohistochemistry. In the in vitro experiment, different concentrations of DAS could obviously inhibit proliferation of MG-63 cells in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. RT-PCR revealed that the expression levels of VEGF mRNA in DSA groups (different concentrations) were significant reduced as compared with those in control group (all P<0.05). Transwell invasion assay indicated that in 20 and 40 μg/mL DAS groups, the number of migratory cells was 91.4±8.3 and 81.8±7.4 respectively, which was significantly declined as compared with that in control group (150.4±14.7, both P<0.05). In the in vivo experiment, DAS could significantly suppress the growth of MG-63 tumor-bearing tissue. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated that different concentrations (20 and 40 μg/mL) of DAS could significantly decrease MVD of MG-63 tumor-bearing tissue (all P<0.05). It was suggested that DAS could inhibit the growth of MG-63 cells probably by suppressing the expression of VEGF mRNA.
