Objective To analyze the distribution of aminoglycoside acetyltransferases (aac) gene in Acinetobacter baumannii, and to establish a molecular biology method to detect the drug-resistance of the bacteria. Methods The aac genes of 42 isolated Acinetobacter baumannii were analyzed by drug susceptibility and multiplex PCR assay. Results The isolated bacteria were more resistant to Gentamicin (57%) and less resistant to Amikacin (29%). As to the bacteria resistant to at least one of the following aminoglycosides, Gentamicin, Tobramycin, Amikacin, aminoglycoside resistant genes were detected in all of pathogens except 2 special. Among them 6 strains with aac(6′)-Ih, 20 strains with aac(3)-Ia, 14 strains with aac(6′)-Ib and 14 strains were found to have both aac(6′)-Ib and aac(3)-Ia. Conclusion Acinetobacter baumannii isolated in this district are easily resistant to Gentamicin, and it is most caused by the enzyme encoded by aac(3)-Ia and aac(6′)-Ib.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the basic data of adverse drug reactions(ADR) and assess the quality of ADR reports submitted in 2006 in Shenzhen,and to provide bases for ADR monitoring.METHOD: The electronic forms of ADR cases reported in 2006 by different units in Shenzhen that had been subjected to the evaluation of Guangdong provincial center were downloaded,and the related data were subjected to frequency analysis.The three time points(duration of medication,onset time of ADR,turnover time) were used to evaluate the integrity of ADR process recording,and the relevance was evaluated by means of contrast.RESULTS: 19 drug categories and total 465 kinds of medicines were involved in 3 303 ADR cases.The categories of antimicrobials and Chinese herbal preparations and ADR cases induced by these drugs ranked at the first and second among all the drugs.The lesions of ADR involved primarily skin and its accessories,followed by gastrointestinal system.Most ADR cases were caused thorough intravenous route of administration.The majority ADR cases had a favorable turnover.New and severe ADR reports were few.The qualities of most reports were poor.CONCLUSION: The training program for ADR reporters should be strengthened;ADR reporters' reporting awareness and responsibility should be strengthened to enhance ADR reporting quality,and physicians' prescribing behavior should be intervened properly so as to reduce the incidence of ADR.

Objective To investigate the regulation of protein kinase C(PKC) to the expression of β-1,4-galactusyhransferase- Ⅰ ( β-1,4-GalT- Ⅰ ) and the influence on cytoskeleton and adherence ability of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs) when stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Methods Cultured HUVECs were pretreated by various PKC inhibitors or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acctate( PMA), an excitomotor of PKC respectively for 30 min, then stimulated by LPS for 4 h. β-1,4-GalT-Ⅰ expression were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot, expression of β-1,4-galactosylated carbohydrate chains and cytoskeleton were assayed by immumofluorescence, and adherence ability of HUVECs was observed by endothelialmonocyte cell adherence test. Results Up-regulated expression of β-1,4-GalT- Ⅰ and β-1,4-galactosylated carbohydrate chains in HUVECs stimulated by LPS were suppressed by PKC inhibitors and increased by PMA. F-actin and β-1,4-GalT- Ⅰ were partly co-localized in HUVECs. PKC inhibitor inhibited the effect of LPS on the distribution of F-actin and β-1,4-GalT- Ⅰ. Adherence ability of HUVECs enhanced by LPS was significantly suppressed by PKC inhibitor. Conclusion PKC signal transduction pathway may participate in regulating β-1,4-GalT-Ⅰ expression in endothelial cells stimulated by LPS. Furthermore, polytypes of PKC may participate in this regulating process; PKC might regulate cytoskeleton reorganization and adherence ability of EC through β-1,4-GalT-Ⅰ during inflammation.
