Objective To observe the effect of early intervention on the oligodendrocyte-myelin glycoprotein(OMgp) mRNA expression of brain injury neonatal rats caused by intrauterine infection.Methods 1.Twenty-eight Wistar pregnant rats were randomly divided into 2 groups:lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-treated group and saline control group.Pregnant rats were consecutively injected with LPS (450 ?g?kg-1) or saline on the 18th gestation age.After birth,the placentas were taken out and made HE staining to observe intrauterine infection.2.Thirty neonatal rats in the saline control group and 55 rats in the LPS-treated group were randomly selected which were divided into intervention group (n=25) and no-intervention group (n=25).The second post-natal day (P2) rats in intervention group were treated by early touch and enriched environment.The neonatal rats in the no-intervention group and saline control group were fed in a routine way.Five cases of P1 rats were selected respectively from the LPS-treated group and saline control group,and brain tissue pathological section was made to observe the condition of brain injury.3.Five cases of P1,P3,P7,P28 and P42 rats were selected from the saline control group,intervention group and no-intervention group to detect the OMgp mRNA expression levels by using the real time polymerase chain reaction me-thod.Results 1.There were a great number of neurophilic granulocytes in the placentas in the LPS-treated group.2.Brain tissue pathological of P1 in the saline control group had complete substantia alba structure,ordered disposition and lightly stained clear chromatospherite.While in the LPS-treated group, there existed brain tissue looseness,colloid cell aggregation and oligodendrocyte cytoreduction in the position of substantia alba,callositas and capsula interna.Intraventricular hemorrhage,substantia alba blood vessel dilatation and blood capillary angiorrhexis and hemorrhage could also be found.3.There was a higher increase in OMgp mRNA expressions of brain tissue in the LPS-treated group at P1,P3,P7,P28,P42 than those in the saline control group (Pa

Objective To detect micronuclei (MN) induced by nickel chloride (NiCl2) using a flow cytometry-based method, so as to study the mutagenecity of this chemical. Methods The micronucleated reticulocytes (MN-RET) in peripheral blood of NIH mice exposed to 0.75 mg/kg colchicines (COL), 40.0 mg/kg of cyclophosphamide (CP) and 5.0, 10.0 and 20.0 mg/kg of NiCl2 were detected by a flow cytometry-based method, in which anti-CD71-FITC and PI were used to stain cells and malaria-infected erythrocytes were employed as biological standards of micronuclei to optimize cytometry. Results Although COL or CP induced significant increase in the frequency of MN-RET in peripheral blood, MN formation in peripheral reticulocytes was not significantly affected by exposing to different concentration of NiCl2. Conclusion The results of flow cytometric analysis in the present paper do not support that NiCl2 exposure may induce significant MN-RET increase in peripheral blood in NIH mice.

Objective To study relationship between length of sterna-pubis line, cervical vertebrae-coc-cyx line and stature in West of Hubei Province. Methods 400 men and women were randomly chosen. Length of sterna-pubis line, length of cervical vertebrae-coccyx line and stature in every person were mea-sured, and all data analysesd by multiple linear regression analysis. Results we have estiblished Eight quadratic equation which stature was calculated via different sex and age groups. Significant difference was observed between the length of sterna-pubis line, and cervical vertebrae-coccyx line and the stature in age group of 18-40. Yet nosignificant difference was seen over 41 and this method must be used with care. Conclusion These equations can be used to determine the stature of Chinese adults.

0bjective To observe the different brain activation of acupuncture and electroacupuncture on healthy subjects and healthy subjects.Methods The different brain activation involved in heroin addiction between healthy subjects and addicts was detected by fMRI.Acupuncture point used in present study Was Zusanli (ST 36).Results Different brain activations between healthy subjects and addicts during electroacupuncture were hypothalamus(X0,Y2,Z9,t=7.36,P<0.01),anterior cingulate(X5,Y49,Z8,t=4.11,P<0.01),tempo-ral gyrus(X61,Y12,Z8,t=3.05,P<0.01).The difference of activated regions during conventional acupuncture between healthy subjects and heroin addicts was thalamus(X2,Y16,Z12,t=2.87,P<0.01),parahippocampus (X17,Y52,Z3,t=3.14,P<0.01),and hypothalamus(X0,Y2,Z9,t=6.98,P<0.01).Conclusion Regions with significant activation detected by fMRI are different during acupuncture in heroin addicts and in the healthy subjects.Notably,the hypothalamus activation is more robust in the addicts than in the healthy subjects during ac-upuncture stimulation.

Objective To investigate the relation between positive fluid balance and the prognosis in severe sepsis patients with acute kidney injury (AKI).Methods A retrospective analysis of clinical data of 90 patients in our department was carried out.According to the final outcome,patients were divided into survival group (n =26) and non-survival group (n =64),in which the relation between patients' positive fluid balance and the prognosis was evaluated.Results (1) There was no statistically significant difference in the age and severity between survival group and non-survival group of patients with severe sepsis and consequent AKI,but the patients in non-survival group had greater volume overload.Compared with the survival group,higher mean fluid balance [(1 112.12±546.85) mLvs.(644.69±474.93) mL,P=0.00],and less urine output [(1 224.07 ± 708.79) mL vs.(2 032.36 ± 723.53) mL,P =0.00) in non-survival group.(2) There was no significant difference in mortality between early and late continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) during ICU care.However,the average daily fluid load in late CRRT patients was significantly greater than that in early CRRT patients [(1178.81 ±397.03) mLvs.(287.22 ± ± 433.53) mL,P =0.00] and the lung oxygenation index in late CRRT patients was significantly worse thanthat in early CRRT patients [(211.22±42.56) vs.(169.46±57.40),P=0.04] (3) The relevant variables to 28-day mortality in AKI patients with severe sepsis included CRRT treatment,oxygenation index and the average daily fluid balance > 500 mL.Among them,fluid balance > 500mL was an independent risk factor for AKI patients with severe sepsis.Their prognosis was worse if they had greater positive fluid balance.CRRT was the protective factor which could affect the prognosis of patients with severe sepsis complicated by AKI.Conclusions Patients with severe sepsis complicated by AKI has a high mortality.Persistent fluid overload can lead to increased mortality in patients with severe sepsis complicated by AKI.Early CRRT can reduce fluid retention in patients with renal failure and improve oxygenation index.

The full length cDNA encoding peroxisomal membrane protein from Chaetomium globosum was cloned using RACE technology and the sequence in cDNA library of C. globosum in GenBank ( Accn: BP099709). The 747bp full length cDNA encoding peroxisomal membrane protein allergen (pero) gene was assembled with 412bp 3'and 508bp 5'RACE products. The open reading frame was 501 bp encoding 166 amino acids. The molecular weight of the protein was 17. 5kDa and its theoretical isoelectric point was 5.75. The pero gene was amplified using specific primers of cDNA 5'and 3'untranslated region, sequence analysis indicated that the gene have 3 exons and 2 introns. ClustalX analysis revealed that amino acids sequence of pero gene from C. globosum and Neurospora crassa shared 83% high similarity. To construct pET28a-pero expressive plasmid, pero gene was inserted into pET28a expressive vector. Escherichia coli BL21 transformed by pET28a-pero plasmid was induced with IPTG. The protein expression was analyzed with SDS-PAGE. A 21kDa pero fusion protein representing the pero gene was expressed in recombinant E. coli BL21. The sequences of cDNA,DNA and deduced amino acid of the pero gene from C. globosum were submitted to GenBank (Accn: AY555771, AY584753,AAS66898).
