Objective To prepare the “bacterial ghost” of E.coli with heat-induction and analyse its lysis rate and configuration. Methods Through immediately shifting the culture temperature from 37℃ to 42℃, E.coli DH5? including plasmid pMuH36 was induced to lyse, and the OD value of culture media was measured every 30 minutes during the induction. After 4 hours of induction, the bacteria samples were collected to examine the lysis rate by CFU (colony formation unit) and the configuration of lysed bacteria was observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Results The OD value of DH5? (pMuH36)began to decline after 1 hour of induction, and increased slowly after 4 hours of induction. The CFU assay showed that the lysis rate was about 95%. TEM observation proved that most of the lysed bacteria were emptied, whereas the whole outmembrane structure, i.e. “bacterial ghost”, remained. Conclusions The E.coli “bacterial ghost” was efficiently prepared and identified, which might provide the basis for further development of a more effective “bacterial ghost” vaccine and adjuvant.

[Objective]To investigate the effect of a single subcutaneous dose of an antisense oligonucleotide(ASO) on particle-induced osteolysis.[Method]The murine calvaria osteolysis model was utilized in ICR mice.Bone resorption was measured with the toluidine blue staining.Osteoclasts were detected by tartrate resistant acid phosphatase(TRAP) staining assay and were quantified by a TRAP quantification kit.[Result]Bone resorption was 0.347 ? 0.09 mm2 in animals with particle implantation,and decreased to 0.123 ? 0.05 mm2 and 0.052 ? 0.02 mm2 after ASO treatment in low and high doses,respectively.The bone resorption was reestablished in animals given an additional TNF-?.The number of osteoclasts in animal calvaria treated with ASO was reduced obviously compared with those untreated animals and the quantification results indicated that about 90% osteoclastgenesis was suprressed by the ASO.Additionally,the osteoclastgenesis was reestablished by the addition of TNF-?.[Conclusion]An antisense oligonucleotide targeting an inflammatory factor,TNF-?,has been to suppress the osteolysis induced by particle for the first time.This new finding holds a great promise.It is a therapeutic strategy for the component loosening.

Objective To study the therapeutical effect of glutathione(GL),a powerful antioxidant on the symptoms and ECG in patients with coronary heart disease and its mechanisms.Methods Eighty-five subjects with coronary heart disease were recruited(45 male and 40 female).The patients were randomized to receive GL (240 mg,ivgtt,qd,for 14 days,n=44)on the top of conventional treatment(aspirin+?-blocks+ACEI)or conven- tional treatement alone(control,n=41).The serum MDA,SOD,NO levels were determined.Electrocardio- graphy(ST stage,T wave)was examined.Results GL significantly improved clinical symptoms scores(2.0+0.5 vs control:1.5+0.5,P

Background and purpose:Smac/DIABLO was the only apoptosis-related protein that could inhibit IAPs directly and simultaneously.The four amino-residual AVPI(Ala-Val-Pro-lie)in its N-terminal was the very important domain that could stimulate apoptosis.This study investigated the effect of synthetic Smac peptide (SmacN7) on chemotherapy sensitivity of bladder cancer cells.Methods:SmacN7 penetratin peptide was synthesized and delivered into T24 cells.MTT assay was adopted to evaluate the viability of T24 cells induced by low-dosage of MMC. Flow cytometry was applied to analyze the proportion of apoptosis and Western blot was used to detect the expression of XIAP and caspase-3;The activity of caspase-3 was measured and the effect of SmacN7 combined with MMC on T24 cell lines was also determined.Results:SmacN7 penetratin peptide could successfully interact with endogenous XIAP and increase the proportions of apoptosis of T24 cell lines induced by low-dosage of MMC in a dose-and time- dependent manner.An obvious down-regulation of XIAP expression and up-regulation of caspase-3 was identified by Western blot.The activity of caspase-3 in experimental group was significantly increased as compared with that in the control group;Combining the treatment with SmacN7 penetratin peptide,the viability of T24 cells decreased to 55% and 72.7% in 24 hrs and 48 hrs respectively.Conclusion:SmacN7 penetratin peptide could act as a cell-permeable IAP inhibitor,inhibit the proliferation,induce apoptosis and enhance the chemo-sensitivity of bladder cancer cells to MMC. When combined with chemotherapy,it may be a very promising strategy for bladder cancer therapy.

SUMMARY When placenta previa complicated with placenta percreta, the exposure of operative field is difficult and the routine methods are difficult to effectively control the bleeding, even causing life-threatening results. A 31-year-old woman, who had been diagnosed with a complete type of placenta pre-via and placenta percreta with bladder invasion at 34 weeks gestation. Her ultrasound results showed a complete type of placenta previa and there was a loss of the decidual interface between the placenta and the myometrium on the lower part of the uterus, suggestive of placenta increta. For further evaluation of the placenta, pelvis magnetic resonance imaging was performed, which revealed findings suspicious of a placenta percreta. She underwent elective cecarean section at 36 weeks of gestation. Firstly, two ureteral stents were placed into the bilateral ureter through the cystoscope. After the infrarenal abdominal aorta catheter was inserted via the femoral artery ( 9 F sheath ) , subarachnoid anesthesia had been estab-lished. A healthy 2 510 g infant was delivered, with Apgar scores of 10 at 1 min and 10 at 5 min. Imme-diately after the baby was delivered, following which there was massive haemorrhage and general anaes-thesia was induced. The balloon catheter was immediately inflated until the wave of dorsal artery disap-peared. With the placenta retained within the uterus, a total hysterectomy was performed. The occluding time was 30 min. The intraoperative blood loss was 2 500 mL. The occluding balloon was deflated at the end of the operation. The patient had stable vital signs and normal laboratory findings during the recovery period and the hemoglobin was 116 g/L. She was discharged six days after delivery without intervention-related complications. This case illustrates that temporary occlusion of the infrarenal abdominal aorta using balloon might be a safe and effective treatment option for patients with placenta previa complicated with placenta percreta, who were at high risk for peripartum hemorrhage. Early removal of the endovascu-lar catheter and close postoperative surveillance of the vascular system are required with this procedure to minimize the risk of vascular complications. However, further studies are needed to determine whether the potential benefits of temporary occlusion of the infrarenal abdominal aorta using balloon outweigh the potential risks.

Objective:To investigate auricular lobule index difference in healthy young female of different height or weight, and to provide an additional reference for otoplasty of auricular lobule.Methods:Subjects were made up of 266 healthy young females of Henan residents. Their height, weight, physiognomic ear breadth, morphological ear breadth, physiognomic ear length, morphological ear length, auricular lobule length, auricular lobule breadth were measured and calculated. All the data were analyzed by SPSS 15.0 software.Results:We obtained the means, standard deviation of each items, and data were treated statistically. In the 266 subjects, average height was (162.9±4.1) cm, weight (55.3±6.5) kg, morphological ear breadth (4.9±0.6) cm, morphological ear length (2.9±0.3) cm, physiognomic ear breadth (6.2±0.4) cm, physiognomic ear length (3.3±0.3) cm, auricular lobule breadth (1.6±0.3) cm, auricular lobule length (1.8±0.2) cm, lobule physiognomic ear breadth index (25.6±4.9)%, lobule-physiognomic ear length index (53.69±7.69)%, and auricular lobule index (91.4±19.3)%. The differences among the indices mentioned above were of statistical significance ( P<0.05); the indices of subjects of different height were significantly different ( P<0.05); the indices of subjects of different weight were of no statistical difference. ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The subjects of different height or weight have no different morphological ear breadth, morphological ear length, physiognomic ear breadth, physiognomic ear length, auricular lobule length, lobule-physiognomic ear length index and auricular lobule index; hence, the indices are no related to body height and weight. However, the subjects of different height have different auricular lobule breadth and lobule-physiognomic ear breadth index.
