OBJECTIVE To investigate urogenital mycoplasma infection and its drug sensitivity in Beijing from Jul 2002 to Jun 2005. METHODS Mycoplasma were isolated and their antibiotic susceptibility was detected with Mycoplasma IST 2 Reagent Box from France. RESULTS Among 1806 cases 673 cases were with positive mycoplasma,accounting for 37.3% of the total.From them,Ureaplasma urealyticum(Uu) was positive in 541 cases(80.4%),higher than Uu combined with Mycoplasma hominis(Mh) infection(107 cases,15.9%) or Mh alone infection(25 cases,3.7%).The result of drug sensitivity test showed that Uu,Mh and Uu+Mh isolated from both sexes had different drug resistance.The most sensitive and stable antibiotics were josamycin(the rate of sensitivity was 98.7%) and pristinamycin(the rate of sensitivity 92.6%),the next was doxycyline(the rate of sensitivity was 91.8%).It seemed increasing sensitivity trend for tetracycline and erythromycin.The lowest rate of sensitivity was to ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin. CONCLUSIONS It is important to enhance the detection of drug resistance of mycoplasma,guide the drug use and prevent from producing antibiotic resistance.If antibiotic susceptibility testing of mycoplasma can not be tested,josamycin may be selected as the first choice to treat mycoplasma infection.

Objective To observe the growth and biological features of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) from psoriatic patients. Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from 5 patients with active psoriasis vulgaris and 5 normal human controls, and BMSC were obtained and purified using plastic adherence method followed by primary culture and passage in vitro. The cell morphology, density and growth were observed with microscopy. Cell growth pattern was evaluated by MTT assay. Flow cytometry was applied to identify surface antigens, including CD29, CD34, CD45 and CD106, on these cells. Results No significant difference was observed in the morphology of primary or descendant BMSC between the patients and controls.The primary BMSC from psoriatic patients tended to adhere to the plastic wall later, confluence and grow more slowly compared with those from the controls. The BMSCs from both psoriatic patients anti healthy donors were positive for CD29, but negative for CD34 or CD45. On the 4th day of culture, the BMSC from psoriatic patients exhibited a decrease in proliferation, with the absorbence at 470 nm (A470) being 0.081±0.0066 and 0.095±0.0130, respectively for BMSC from the patients and controls (t=2.358, P<0.05). Conclusion There is a decrease in the proliferation of BMSC from psoriatic patients which show a morphological similarity to those from healthy controls.

Objective To construct HaCaT cell lines stably expressing the wild type human GJB6 gene or its mutant by using a Tet-On lentiviral vector, and to lay an experimental foundation for studies on pathogenesis of hidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. Methods The wild-type human GJB6 gene and its mutant (A88V)were amplified by PCR, and then inserted into the Tet-on lentivirus plasmid to construct recombinant lentivirus vectors. The recombinants were identified by gene sequencing and enzymatic digestion. Cultured HaCaT cells were classified into three groups to be transfected with a negative control lentiviral vector (NC group), the lentivirus vector expressing the wild-type human GJB6 gene (WT group), or the lentivirus vector expressing the mutant human GJB6 gene (MU group). Puromycin was used to select HaCaT cell clones stably expressing the GJB6 gene which encodes the connexin 30 (Cx30)protein. The selected HaCaT cell clones were cultured with or without tetracycline for 48 hours, thereafter, real-time PCR(RT-PCR) was performed to detect GJB6 gene mRNA expression, Western-blot analysis to measure expressions of Cx30 and FLAG-tag proteins, and cell counting kit 8 (CCK8)assay to evaluate cellular proliferative activity. Results Enzymatic digestion and gene sequencing showed that recombinant lentivirus plasmids were successfully constructed. RT-PCR showed evidently increased mRNA expression of the GJB6 gene in stably transfected HaCaT cells. Moreover, the expression abundance of the GJB6 gene was 112.369 times higher in the WT group induced by tetracycline than in that without tetracycline treatment (P < 0.05), and 2.249 times higher in the MU group induced by tetracycline than in that without tetracycline treatment (P < 0.05). Western-blot analysis showed that Cx30 and FLAG-tag proteins were stably expressed in the WT group and MU group after induction with tetracycline, while neither of them was observed in the WT group or MU group without tetracycline treatment, or in the NC group. Significant differences were noted in cellular proliferative activity (expressed as the absorbance value at 450 nm)between the MU group with and without tetracycline treatment and between the WT group with and without tetracycline treatment at 4, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours (all P <0.05), but not between the NC group with and without tetracycline treatment at any of the above time points (all P >0.05). Conclusion HaCaT cell lines which stably express the wild-type GJB6 gene or its mutant(A88V)are successfully constructed.
