Objective To observe the pollution states of environmental estrogen-alkyl pheols in tap water of Shenyang. Methods With solid phase extraction and gas chromatography/mass spectroscope (GC/MS) ionic selective methods, the concentration of pollutants of alkyl pheols were measured in 21 tap water samples of water works of Shenyang. Results The main pollutants of alkyl pheols in tap water of water works in Shenyang were 4-t-octyl phenol, nonyl phenol and bisphenol A. The respective maximum concentration was 690.5 ng/L (ranged 29.5-690.5 ng/L), 2 791.6 ng/L (ranged 212.1-2 791.6 ng/L) and 161.0 ng/L (ranged 14.7-161.0 ng/L). The varieties and concentrations of pollutants of alkyl pheols showed a significant difference among water samples from different water works and the seasonal changing of them was demonstrated in the waters made in the same water works. Conclusion The problem on the drinking water contamination with alkyl pheols in Shenyang should be paid more attention by government.

Objective To investigate the influence of nicotine on the metabolism of dopamine (DA) in the striatum and on the spontaneous locomotor activity of MPTP-induced PD mice. Methods 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced PD model in mice was prepared. The effects of MPTP and nicotine on the levels of dopamine, its metabolites of 3,4-dihydroxyphenlacetic acid (DOPAC) and hemovanillic acid (HVA) were analyzed with high-performance liquid chromatography and electrochemical detection(HPLC-EC); also, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-positive nerve fibers were measured by immunohistochemical analysis. Results After injection of Nicotine, the spontaneous locomotor activity of MPTP-treated C57BL mice was significantly lower than that of the control mice, suggesting the nicotine's inhibiting effects ( 44.86?8.51 vs. 57.28?3.27, P

Objective To investigate the role of PKCθ signal pathway on regulation of L-selectin (CD62L) expression in human activated γδT cells. Methods Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were stimulated with Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigen (Mtb-Ag) and cultured for 6-8 d to generate Mtb-Ag activated T cells(MtbAT) as γδT cells enrichment T cell line. The MtbAT were stimulated with PMA or PMA + IMN for 3, 6, 12 and 24 h, respectively, or MtbAT cultured for 8 d were stimulated with Mtb-Ag, or PMA, with or without PKC0 inhibitor Rottlerin for 4 h. After the treated cells stained with fluo-rescent labeled monoclonal antibodies, the expression of CD62L on γδT cells were measured by flow cytome-try (FCM ). Results The expression of CD62L on γδT cells cultured for 6-8 d were 75.0%-87.0%. Decrease of CD62L from the surface of γδT cells by 3 h to 12 h after exposure to PMA (42.3% to 23.5% ), but CD62L expression increased to 53.2% when γδT cells were exposed to PMA for 24 h. The expression of CD62L of γδT cells decreased to 52.1% and 39.3% respectively when γδT cells were exposed to PMA + IMN for 3 h and 6 h. After treated with PMA + IMN for 12 h and 24 h, the expression of CD62L were 52.9% and 35. 3% respectively. The CD62L expression of γδT cells treated with PMA and Rottlerin (47.9%) were higher than that treated with PMA alone (31.8%). After Mtb-Ag restimulated MtbAT for 4 h, the CD62L level of γδT cells decreased from 70.0% to 54.8%, Rottlerin could inhibite Mtb-Ag down regulation CD62L level of γδT cells (63.1%). Conclusion The CD62L expression of γδT cells could be ingibited partly by the inhibitor of PKCθ signal pathway may regulate L-selectin (CD62L) expression of activated human γδT cells.

Objective To observe the effect of Changji’an Prescription (CP) on depressing the mast cells in the irritable bowel syndrome(IBS)rats. Methods The postnatal rats aged 8~21 days were given continous inflammation stimulation inside the colon to replicate the animal model of the IBS. The number of mast cells and their degranulation were observed by modified Toluidine Blue staining method under light microscope and electron microscope. Results The pressure threshold value of rats raising their abdomen and back in the model group was obviously lower than that in the normal group (P

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational use of TCM injections. METHODS:Among the inpatients who used TCM injections in 4 hospitals of Shanghai Jiading district in 2013,100 cases were collected by systematic sampling in each hospital separately, and the data were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS:The varieties and amount of TCM injections for blood-activating and stasis-resolving both occupied the first place. 22% inpatients used two or more TCM injections at the same time. The proportion of overdose use of TCM injections reached 54.55%. The type of unreasonable drug use mainly included drug use against differentiation of syndromes,super indications drugs and solvent error. Combined use of TCM injections with same ef-fect accounted for 20.45% of combined use of TCM injections. CONCLUSIONS:It is effective means to improve rational drug use that great impertance paid for clinical use of TCM injections.

Shanghai began to strengthen the community health service system in 1997 , and had officially en-tered the period of “connotation construction” with the core policy of family doctor system in 2011 after the period of“service framework and network establishment” and“operational mechanism reform”. Through summarizing the poli-cy files related the family doctor system and based on 2013 report on monitoring and evaluation of family doctor system in Shanghai, the paper presented the progress of the system from aspects of system coverage, signature relationship, service mode and operational mechanism, and analyzed the development bottlenecks of the system from aspects of the policy itself, service principal, service supervision and service objects. Finally, the paper proposed some suggestions in order to give some references for further development of national general practitioner system.

Vaccination is one of the most effective and cost-benefit interventions that prevent the mortality and reduce morbidity from infectious pathogens. However, the licensed influenza vaccine induces strain-specific immunity and must be updated annually based on predicted strains that will circulate in the upcoming season. Influenza virus still causes significant health problems worldwide due to the low vaccine efficacy from unexpected outbreaks of next epidemic strains or the emergence of pandemic viruses. Current influenza vaccines are based on immunity to the hemagglutinin antigen that is highly variable among different influenza viruses circulating in humans and animals. Several scientific advances have been endeavored to develop universal vaccines that will induce broad protection. Universal vaccines have been focused on regions of viral proteins that are highly conserved across different virus subtypes. The strategies of universal vaccines include the matrix 2 protein, the hemagglutinin HA2 stalk domain, and T cell-based multivalent antigens. Supplemented and/or adjuvanted vaccination in combination with universal target antigenic vaccines would have much promise. This review summarizes encouraging scientific advances in the field with a focus on novel vaccine designs.
