ObjectiveTo compare quantitative proteomic analysis of bromotetrandrine (W198) which was a Class Ⅰ new antitumor drug in China and tetrandrine (Tet) in K562 cell line using 18O-labeling method.MethodsTo illustrate its mechanism,a shotgun quantitative proteomic strategy employing 2D LC-MS-MS and trypsin catalyzed 18O-labeling quantification was carried out in this study.Compared to normal chronic leukemia cell line K562 and K562 induced by Tet,the proteomic changes of K562 induced by W198 were investigated.In order to validate the quantitation by the 18O-labeling,the analysis was done on an equivalent sample composed of the same amount of labeled and unlabeled proteins from normally cultured cells to act as a reference to the comparative sample.ResultsA threshold of ± 2-fold change for deciding whether a protein concentration was changed was settled for the following experiments.Comparing the 105 identified soluble proteins' expression levels of the apoptosis starting up K562 cells after W198 induction with the normally cultured cells,16 proteins were found with significantly altered expression levels after W198 treatment.Eight proteins were up-expressed including HMGB2,peroxiredoxin-2,and eIF4A-I,etc.Eight proteins were down-expressed including TCP-1,GRP94,GST-π,and SFGHs,etc.Compared to K562 induced by Tet,eight proteins of K562 were found with significantly altered expression levels after W198 treatment.Five proteins were up-expressed including HSP 90-β and 40S ribosomal protein S15a,etc.Three proteins were down-expressed including phosphoglycerate kinase 1,isoform 5 of interleukin enhancer-binding factor 3,etc.ConclusionThe 18O-labeling MS-MS-based method is ideal as a discovery tool,but it is not suitable for validation using a large number of samples.Other more effective methods,such as Western blotting should be used for further validation of candidate cancer proteins discovered from 18O-labeling samples.In total,105 soluble proteins were discovered,and 16 proteins were found with significantly altered expression levels after W198 treatment.These repressed or activated proteins are the potential drug targets of W198,which may provide novel targets for future development ofbiomarkers for cancer therapy.

Objective To discuss the clinicd effect of using nebulised budesonide to treat neonatal laryneal edema caused by mechanical ventilation.Methods 43 newborns with mechanical ventilation were included in this study and divided into two groups:The Observational group(23 newborns)were treated with nebulised budesonide right before excubation once and three times after that,and the control group(20 newborns)were treated with dexamethasone once right before excubation and nebulised adrenine after that for three times.Comparisons were made between two groups about dismissing time of wheeze or hoarseness,tachypnea,PaO2 and PaCO2.Results Observational group:dismissing time of wheeze or hoarseness was(10.26±4.01)hours,dismissing time of tachypnea was(1.63±0.55)days,which was shorter than that of control group[(14.20±5.58)hours/(2.05±0.58)days],P＜0.05).PaO2 and PaCO2 of two groups had no statistical difference(P＞0.05).Conclusion Nebulised budesonide was effective in treatment neonatal laryneal edema caused by mechanical ventilation,using.

ObjectiveTo analyze the clinical characteristics of Behcet's disease with intracardiac thrombus.MethodsThe data of 8 patients diagnosed as Behcet's disease with intracardiac thrombus in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January,1990 to January,2011 were studied retrospectively.ResultsBehcet's disease with intracardiac thrombus was found in 8 patients (5 men and 3 women) with a median age of 28.5 years.Most of them were young men.Thrombus was mostly found in the right side of the heart.Most of the patients had pulmonary thromboembolism with negative anticardiolipid antibody and basically normal C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate.ConclusionIntracardiac thrombus associated with Behcet's disease most commonly occurs in young men and usually involves the right side of the heart.

Objective: To find out effects of the service unit floating payment system under the total budget control of the medical institution, and explore feasible solution. Methods: Through interpretation of the policy, compare with simple service unit floating payment system to find out the characteristics of the new policy. Results: Through the total budget pre-control system, the new policy can effectively restrain the trend of fast growing on medical expenses. Time of doctor and number of patient ratio indicators are introduced to effectively prevent the medical institution decompose the time of doctor. Conclusion: To achieve the steady growth of medical business, medical institutions need to enhance the management of expense control, develop new business to attract new patients , optimize the medical charge structure.

Objective To monitor the distribution of pathogenic bacteria causing wound infection in trauma patients and their susceptibility to antibiotics in an effort to offer evidence for the rational clinical use of antibiotics.Methods Pathogens were identified by expressive type,but a very few was determined by the molecular methods.Micro-dilution or Kirby-Bauer method for minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was adopted for drug susceptibility test.Results A total of 121 species of pathogens numbering 1,257 bacterial strains were isolated from 1,066 patients.Strain number of the top 10 species accounted for 70.09％.Gram-positive cocci accounted for 48.93％ and Gram-negative bacilli for 49.72％.Among Staphylococcus aureus and epidermidis,methicillin-resistant bacterial strains accounted for 34.76％ and 71.08％ respectively,but none were resistant to vancomycin or linezolid.Enterococcus faecalis contained 6.06％ vancomycin-resistant enterococcal (VRE) and remained ＞ 90％ sensitive to teicoplanin,ampicilin and vancomycin.Enterococcus faecium contained 10.53％ VRE and remained ＞90％ sensitive to teicoplanin and ＞ 80％ sensitive to vancomycin.Baumanii contained 12.77％ multidrug resistant strains and remained ＞ 70％ sensitive to imipenem and meropenem.Baumanii/calcoaceticus complex contained 29.72％ multi-drug resistant strains and remained ＞ 50％ sensitive to imipenem and meropenem.Pseudomonas aeruginosa contained 3.73％ multi-drug resistant strains and remained ＞90％ sensitive to amikacin,meropenem,imipenem and piperacillin/tazobactam.No E.coli,klebsiella pneumoniae and enterobacter cloacae resistant to imipenem or meropenem were found.E.coli contained 69.51％ extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs)-producing strains and remained ＞ 90％ sensitive to piperacillin/tazobactam and ＞ 80％ sensitive to amikacin.Klebsiella pneumoniae contained 53.13％ ESBLs-producing strains and remained ＞ 80％ sensitive to amikacin.Conclusions Common bacteria are the leading cause of posttraumatic infection.Enterococcus faecalis and enterococcus faecium demonstrate higher susceptibility to teicoplanin; two kinds of acinetobacter demonstrate higher susceptibility to imipenem.

PNS (Panax notoginseng saponins) is the main medical bioactive component in Panax notoginseng. The medical value of PNS cannot be extended because of its low production. With the deep study of saponins biosynthetic pathway, the control of PNS biosynthesis through metabolic engineering has gradually become possible. In this study, the Squalene synthase (SS) over-expression vector was established. By the way of agrobacterium-mediated method, the vector was transfered and integrated into the Panax notoginseng genome. The result of the PCR detection and the saponin content detection shows that over-expression SS is able to produce high level of Panax notoginseng saponins, and confirms the regulatory function of SS in the biosynthesis of ginsenosides in Panax notoginseng. It provides a theoretical basis and technical basis for the construction of PNS homologous or heterologous efficient expression system in the future.
