The host protein SAMHD1 has been identified as the first mammalian deoxynucleoside triphosphate triphosphohydrolase (dNTPase), which blocks the infection of HIV-1 in non-cycling immune cells.SAMHD1 protein is highly expressed in human myeloid-lineage cells and resting CD4+T lymphocytes, which restricts HIV-1 replication by hydrolyzing the cellular dNTPs, thus inhibiting reverse transcription and viral complementary DNA ( cDNA) synthesis. Recent studies have revealed that SAMHD 1 plays an important role in virus whole life by promoting HIV -1 genome recombination, degenerating viral genome RNA and restricting virus transmission between cells .In this review, these progress on SAMHD1 research are summarized and the mechanisms by which SAMHD 1 mediates retroviral restriction are analyzed .

Objective To determine the efficacy of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in children with coronary obstructive disease subsequent to Kawasaki disease. Methods Between Feb 2005 and Sep 2009, 6 children with ischemic heart disease due to Kawasaki disease comprised the study group. The age of patients at operation was ranged from 6 to 12 years with a mean of ( 8.0 ± 2.3 ) years. The preoperative EF was ranged from 0.33 to 0.71 with a mean of 0.57 ± 0.15. There was one case with moderate mitral valve regurgitation. Results All patients survived the procedures. The mean number of bypass graft was 2.0 ±0.6,with 4 internal thoracic arteries and 7 radial arteries. Mitral valve repair was employed in 1 case. The cardisc function ( NYHA and EF) was significantly improved postoperatively. Postoperative CTA showed no graft disease in all cases. Conclusion CABG using the arterial grafts can provide attractive mid-term results in patients with obstructive coronary arteries associated with Kawasaki disease.

Objective The aim of this study is to review the experience of using non-transplantation procedure treating ischemic heart disease. Methods Between Jan of 2000 and Jan of 2008, 74 patients with ischemic heart disease comprised the study group, including 66 males and 8 females. The age of the group ranged from 36-79 years, mean 63.3 ±9.28years. The patients underwent non-transplantation procedure according to the preoperative tests. To evaluate the aimed vessels and the survival myocardial viability, coronary angiography, echocardiography, radioisotope scanning and dobutamine-stress echo-test were used. The cardiac function data were analyzed before and after operation. Results Seventy-one cases underwent coronary artery bypass [mean (3.26 ± 1.14) grafts/case], containing 54 arterial grafts and 177 veinuos grafts. The mechanical assistance was applied in 51 cases including 1ABP 50 cases(67.6% ), IABP and ECMO 1 case(1.4%). Postoperative complication contained re-thoracotomy for bleeding 1 case ( 1.4% ), wound infection 3 cases (4.1%), renal dysfunction 3 cases(4.1%), low cardiac output 11 cases(14.9 %). The in-hospital mortality was 10.8% ( 8 cases ). The follow-up time ranged from 17 to 107 months, mean (47.47±24.51 ) months. The follow-up mortality rate was 3.0%. The re-hospitalization for cardiovascular events taken place in 6 cases(9.1% ). The cardiac function improved postoperatively. EF increased from preoperative 0.33 to postoperative 0.47. The diameter of the left ventricular decreased markedly. The left ventricular end-systolic diamension decreased from preoperative 47.6 mm to postoperative 43.4 mm. Conclusion Selected patients with ischemic heart disease, potentially eligible for transplantation, can be managed by the non-transplantation surgery. In those patients post-operative quality of life is satisfactory, with comparable survival and low risk of re-hospitalization.

With the combined applications of steam distillation, water extraction and alcohol precipitation, liquid-liquid extraction and column chromatography over macroporous resin, a splitted-fractions method of the chemical constituents of Poria cocos was established. The unoverlapping property of the fractions of P. cocos was qualitatively analysed by using principal component analysis and cluster analysis. With angle cosine, squared euclidean distance and the overlapping analysis of peak area of crude herbs, the unoverlapping property of the fractions of P. cocos was half-quantitatively analysed. The chemical components of P. cocos was divided into the fractions of polysaccharide, petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, alcohol eluate from macroporous resin and water eluate from macroporous resin. Non similarity degree among each chemical fraction was above 80% and main chemical components were identified. The established method for splitting fractions of P. cocos has good stability and repeatability and all chemical components in P. cocos could be completely divided into six fractions. It is the first time that the author half-quantitatively analyse the unoverlapping property of the chemical fractions of P. cocos.
