Objective To find out the resistant situation and drug of Mycobacteria patients in Sichuan and offer foundation for clinical.Methods Two hundred randomized clinical isolates of Mycobacterium were determined by Roche drug sensitivity and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method.Results Of the 200 clinical isolates,192 stains were Mycobacterium tuberculosis(MTB) (96.0％),8 strains (4.0％) were non-tuberculosis mycobacterium(NTM).Of the 192 MTB strains,108( 57.3％ ) sensitive strains and 84 (43.7％)stains were resistant to one or more than one drugs.Among these 84 resistant strains 23 were multi-drug resistant ( MDR,12.0％ ),4 were extensively drug resistant( XDR,2.1％ ).The anti-TB drug resistance rates were:SM(16.7％),INH(20.8％),RFP(17.2％),EMB(10.9％),PI(16.1％),LFX(8.8％),AMK ( 16.7％ ),CPM ( 6.2％ ),PTA ( 33.3％ ),respectively.Conclusion The resistance rate of tuberculosis keeps at a high level in Sichuan,especially the resistance rate of multiple (≥4) drug,we should oar attention.

Objective To compare the significance of DNA-associated autoantibodies to cell membrane(cmDNA)in systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE)detected with indirect immunofluorescence on human B lymphoma cell line Raji and pmmyelocytic line HL60.Methods Indirect immunofluorescence assay both on cell line Raji and HL60 was used to measure anti-cmDNA antibodies in sera of 306 SLE patients.192 patients with other rheumatic diseases and 50 healthy controls.Results Indirect immunofluorescence assay on cell line Raji was used to measure anti-cmDNA antibodies.72.5% SLE and 10.4% other rheumatic diseases were positive for anti-cmDNA,but negative in 50 blood donors(P<0.01).Indirect immunofluorescence assay on cell line HL60 was used to measure anti-cmDNA antibodies,76.1% SLE and 16.7% other rheumatic diseases were positive for anti-cmDNA,but negative in 50 blood donors(P<0.01).The sensitivity of anti-cmDNA were 72.5%and 76.1%,respectively.The specificity of anti-cmDNA was 91.7% and 86.8%,respectively.There was no significant difference in sensitivity and spocificity(P>0.05).The methods of culture,freeze and resuscitation on the two cells were similar.but cell line Raji was easier to resuscitate than cell line HL60.Observing with fluorescence microscope.we find that cmDNA was expressed on the both cells and the staining was stronger on cellline Raji than HL60.Conclusion Anti-cmDNA antibody has high positivity which is one of the most valuable marker in the diagnosis of SLE.We recommend to measure anti-cmDNA antibodies with indirect immunofluorescence assay on cell line Raji rather than HL60.

ObjectiveTo compare the significance of anti-cmDNA antibody in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients detected with IIF on human's B lymphoma cell line Raji and promyelocytic line HL60.The diagnostic value of anti-cmDNA antibody in SLE was also explored.MethodsThree hundred and six patients with SLE were included in this study.As control groups,we included 192 patients with other rheumatic diseases and 50 healthy controls.The testing method for anti-cmDNA antibody was set up.The assessment of the significance of anti-cmDNA antibody in SLE detected with IIF on cell line Raji and HL60 was carried out andthe diagnostic value of anti-cmDNA antibody in SLE was investigated.ANA and antidsDNA antibody were measured by IIF at the same time.Anti-Sm was measured by immuno-diffusion andWestern blotting.AnuA was tested by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.The statistical methods used in this study including McNemar X2 test,Spearman related test and Logistic regression analysis.Results The fluorescence brightness of Raji cell line was stronger than HL60 cell line.There was no statistically significant difference in the sensitivity and specificity of anti-cmDNA antibody in SLE detected with IIF with Raji or HL60 cell lines (P＞0.05).The sensitivity of anti-cmDNA antibody detected with IIF on Raji cell line was higher than anti-dsDNA antibody and anti-Sm antibody(P＜0.01),while the specificity of anti-cmDNA antibody was similar to anti-dsDNA antibody (P＞0.05) and was lower than anti-Sin antibody (P＜0.01).The sensitivity of anti-cmDNA antibody was similar to AnuA(P＞0.05) and the specificity was lower than AnuA (P＜0.01).The sensitivity of ANA was higher than anti-cmDNA antibody (P＜0.01) and the specificity was much lower than anti-cmDNA antibody(P＜0.01).The sensitivities of anti-dsDNA antibody,anti-Sm antibody and AnuA were much higher when combined with anti-dsDNA antibody than any one antibody only (P＜0.05).Anti-cmDNA antibody was correlated with mucosa ulcer in SLE patients(OR=2.343,P=0.029).The ESR of SLE patients was also correlated with anti-cmDNA antibody(OR=l.031,P=0.012).Anti-cmDNA antibody was not correlated with SLEDAI (r=0.070,P=0.600).ConclusionRaji cell line is better than HL60 cell line in detecting anti-cmDNA antibody with IIF.Anti-cmDNA antibody has higher sensitivity and specificity in SLE.Combined detection of anti-cmDNA antibody and other autoantibodies can further improve the diagnostic accuracy of SLE.

A novel antimicrobial peptide, named as perinerin (GenBank accession No. P84117), was isolated and characterized from Asian marine clamworms, Perinereis aibuhitensis Grube. Perinerin showes powerful and broad activity against both grampositive and gramnegtive bacteria in vitro, especially on Pseudemonas aeruginosa. To obtain large amounts of active perinerin and characterize its main physiochemical features, The perinerin weve expressed in Pichia pastoris. Intact perinerin gene amplified by the modified gene SOEing method(Gene splicing by overlap extension)was cloned into expression vector pPICZ?A and obtained recombinant vector pPICZ?APEN, then pPICZ?APEN was expressed in the Pichia pastoris GS115. The expressed sample was analyzed by TricineSDSPAGE. The results showed that Pichia pastoris was a suitable system producing the secreted form of perinerin. Bioactivity assay showed that the recombinant perinerin had marked antimicrobial effects.

?AlM: To investigate the expression of miR-181 in the lens tissue of cataract and the regulating mechanism of miR-181 on apoptosis of human lens epithelial cell.
?METHODS:Real time q-PCR was used to measure the expression of miR-181 in the anterior lens capsules of age - related cataract and human lens epithelial cell apoptosis model. miR- 181 mimic and inhibitor were transfected using Lipofectamine 2 000 to regulate the expression of miR-181, and then Real time q-PCR was used to verify transfection efficiency. Flow cytometry was used to detect the change of cell apoptosis rate.
? RESULTS: Compared with control group, the expression of miR-181 was significantly higher in both the anterior lens capsules of age-related cataract and human lens epithelial cell apoptosis model; the relative expression of miR-181 in lens epithelial cells transfected with miR-181 mimic was increased, whereas decreased in cells transfected with miR-181 inhibitor;the apoptosis rate of cells transfected with miR - 181 mimic was increased, while reduced in miR-181 inhibitor group. Each result was statistically significant (P<0. 01).
?CONCLUSlON:High expression of miR-181 is detected in anterior lens capsule of age-related cataract. miR-181 might play a certain role in the pathogenesis of cataract via promoting human lens epithelial cell apoptosis. miR-181 probably becomes a new approach for the nonoperative treatment of cataract, but the concrete mechanism still needs to be further studied.

Objective To detect the serum level of transglutaminase 2 (TG2)-specific IgE (slgE) in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD),and to analyze its correlation with the disease condition.Methods A total of 77 patients with AD were enrolled into this study,including 44 patients aged ≥ 12 years and 33 patients aged ＜ 12 years.Of the 77 patients,20 were diagnosed with intrinsic AD,which was characterized by the absence of sIgE and total serum IgE values ＜ 150 kU/L,and 49 with extrinsic AD characterized by positive (++) or even strongly positive slgE for more than 1 kind of exogenous allergens,or total serum lgE values ≥ 150 kU/L.[mmunocapture-biotinylated detector enzyme immunoassay was performed to detect the serum level of TG2-sIgE in 77 patients with AD,40 adult patients with psoriasis vulgaris (PV) and 30 healthy adult controls.Clinical data on the AD patients were recorded,including age,disease duration,SCORAD score,blood eosinophil count,levels of total IgE and TG2-sIgE.Results The serum levels of TG2-sIgE in AD patients aged ≥ 12 years,AD patients aged ＜ 12 years,PV patients and healthy controls were 1.02 ± 0.2,1.04 ± 0.044,0.93 ± 0.25 and 0.71 ± 0.13,respectively.Additionally,the serum level of TG2-sIgE significantly differed among AD patients aged ≥ 12 years,PV patients and healthy controls (x2 =37.407,P ＜ 0.001),and was significantly higher in both AD patients aged ≥ 12 years and PV patients than in the healthy controls (t =7.38,4.83,respectively,both P ＜ 0.001).Moreover,the intrinsic AD group showed significantly higher TG2-sIgE levels compared with the extrinsic AD group (1.16 ± 0.03 vs.1.02 ± 0.20,t =2.27,P =0.02).The TG2-sIgE level was uncorrelated with the patients' age,disease duration,SCORAD score,blood eosinophil count or serum total IgE levels in AD patients (r =0.03,0.14,-0.04,-0.08,0.06,respectively,all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The serum level of TG2-sIgE obviously increases in AD patients,so TG2 may be one kind of autoantigen in AD patients,but there is no significant correlation between the TG2-sIgE level and AD severity.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the feasibility and safety of patient controlled analgesia (PCA) technology during double balloon endoscopy(DBE) inspection.

METHODSAccording to the anesthesia, 120 patients with suspected intestinal disease were randomized into non-anaesthesia(Group A), propofol infusion with TCI vein pump(Group B), and remifentanil vein infusion with PCA pump(Group C), with 40 patients in each group. The feasibility and safety of the three methods in double balloon endoscopy(DBE) inspection were evaluated.

RESULTSThe tolerance in groups B and C was good and the procedure success rate was 100%, significantly higher than Group A(80%, 12/40, P<0.01). The fluctuation of blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen saturation was significantly greater in groups A and B, while patients in Group C remained stable. The detection rate was 67.5%(27/40) in Group B and 72.5%(29/40) in Group C, significantly higher than that in Group A(37.5%, 15/40, all P<0.01). The depth of endoscope was longer and the length of hospital stay shorter in Group C as compared to Group B(both P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe application of PCA technology in the double-balloon endoscopy inspection can meet the individualized analgesic needs of patients in different period, increase the tolerance and compliance of patients to the inspection, facilitate patient-operator communication and positions change, reduce the operation risk, and increase the success rate of double balloon endoscopy.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical features of children with incomplete Kawasaki disease (IKD), and to provide reference for the early diagnosis of IKD.

METHODSThe clinical data of 22 hospitalized children with IKD were analyzed retrospectively and compared with the data of 63 children with Kawasaki disease (KD) who were hospitalized during the same period of time. Another 20 children with pyrexia were enrolled as the control group.

RESULTSPyrexia was observed in all children. Compared with the KD group, the IKD group had significantly lower proportions of children with changes in the limbs, conjunctival hyperaemia, and cervical lymphadenectasis (P<0.05), a significantly higher serum level of glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (P<0.05), and significantly lower levels of plasma albumin, serum sodium, and interleukin-6 (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the rate of γ-globulin application between the IKD and KD groups; however, the IKD group had a significantly higher incidence rate of coronary artery lesion than the KD group (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONSThe symptoms and signs in children with IKD are untypical. The liver function test and serum hyponatremia and IL-6 measurements may be useful for the diagnosis of IKD.
