Objective In order to explore the effects of trauma on MAC and its mechanism, the changes in MAC of sevoflurane and plasma ? endorphin were investigated in state of trauma. Methods Twenty New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into control group and trauma group. MAP,CVP, P ET CO 2 and ECG were monitored continuously. The MAC of sevoflurane was measured in the two groups. In trauma group, the left femur of rabbits was fractured combined with parenchyma damage.Plasma ? endorphin concentration was assaied at various times in two groups. Results MAC of sevoflurane was 2 2%?0 2% in control group and 1 7%?0 2% in trauma group. Trauma induced increase of plasma ? endorphin concentration significantly 5min and 30min after trauma,? endorphin concentration increased by 44% and 52% in trauma group, respectively. Conclusions MAC of sevoflurane in rabbits is 2 2%?0 2%.Trauma can reduce MAC of inhalational anesthetic significantly. The endogenous ? endorphin releasing enormously induced with trauma may be one of the mechanisms to decrease MAC of inhalational anesthetics.

To observe the protective effect of lidocaine on acute lung injury(ALI) following intestinal ischemia/reperfusion(I/R). Adult SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n =8): control group, with super mesenteric artery isolation only; I/R group, intestinal I/R (60/180min); two lidocaine treated groups, in which lidocaine in a dose of 2mg/kg was administered intravenously immediately or 60min after reperfusion, respectively. Intestinal I/R resulted in deterioration of MAP, increased the lung permeability index, serum TNF ?level and lung TNF ?mRNA expression ,and produced histopathological changes in the lung. Lidocaine given immediately after reperfusion could attenuate these changes, while lidocaine 60min group showed no effects on the changes in MAP, serum TNF ? and pathological changes in the lung. These data suggested that lidocaine could attenuate lung injury following intestinal I/R,in part by inhibiting the sequestration of neutrophils and the production of TNF ?. Lidocaine given early after reperfusion seemed to be more effective .

The aim was to determine the antimicrobial activities of peptide antibiotics hPAB ? and construct the recombinant baculovirus of its mutants. Four mutants of hPAB ? were designed based on molecular autosyndetic modeling and its genes were cloned by PCR. The transfer plasmid and recombinant baculovirus were constructed. The results showed that the hPAB ? cloned previously, is a good peptide antibiotics. Four mutant genes of hPAB ? were inserted into pFAST HTa plasmid and the recombinant pFAST hPAB ? were screened by restriction enzymes analysis and DNA sequencing. The recombinant baculovirus was obtained after transforming pFAST hPAB ? into Escherichia coli DH10Bac. Our work lays a good foundation for further research.

Objective To compare the effect of different gastrointestinal motility drugs on capsule endoscopy. Methods Seventy-one patients with suspected small bowel disease were randomly divided into metoclopramide group (24 patients), mosapride group(25 patients) and control group (22 group). The patients in metoclopramide group swallowed capsule endoscopy immediately after intramuscularly injecting 10 mg metoclopramide, the patients in mosapride group swallowed capsule endoscopy 15 min after taking 5 mg mosapride, and the patients in control group did not take any of the gastrointestinal motility drugs. Three groups had the same bowel preparation before checking. The finishing rate of small bowel examinations, stomach and small intestinal transit time, intestinal cleanliness and the detection rates of lesions in three groups were compared. Results The total small bowel examination finishing rate was 94.4%(67/71). The small bowel examination finishing rate in metoclopramide group, mosapride group, and control group was 95.8%(23/24), 96.0%(24/25), and 90.9% (20/22), and there was no significant difference(P>0.05). The stomach transit time in metoclopramide group, mosapride group and control group was(27.5 ± 20.7), (28.1 ± 20.9) and (52.3 ± 33.5) min. The stomach transit time in metoclopramide group and mosapride group had no significant difference (P>0.05), but it was significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.05). The small intestinal transit time in three groups had no significant difference (P>0.05). The image class scores in metoclopramide group, mosapride group and control group was (2.5 ± 0.4), (2.7 ± 0.4) and (1.7 ± 0.3) scores.The scores in metoclopramide group and mosapride group had no significant difference (P>0.05), but they were significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.05). The detection rate of lesions in metoclopramide group, mosapride group and control group was 45.8%(11/24), 56.0%(14/25) and 18.2%(4/22). The detection rate of lesions in metoclopramide group and mosapride group had no significant difference (P>0.05), but it was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.05). Conclusions The use of gastrointestinal motility drugs before capsule endoscopy can improve the quality of inspection, and metoclopramide and mosapride shows no significant difference.

Objective To study the effect of repairment of articular cartilage defects in non weight-bearing area of rabbit with bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) seeded on human acellular amniotic membrane (HAAM).Methods From July 2012 to March 2013,bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells were isolated and purified from rabbit in vitro.The cells were seeded on human acellular anniotic membrane at the concentration of 1.63 × l05/cm2.From 7 days to 8 days after cultured,the complexes of BMSC and HAAM were examined under electronmicroscope,light microscope and by HE stain.Full thickness empty defects measuring 4 mm in diameter by 3 mm depth were prepared in femoral intercondylar fossa of 24 rabbits.The rabbits were randomized into two groups:group A and group B with 12 each group.The defects of right knees were served as control and the left as experimental group.BMSCs/HAAM composite was cultured and then transplanted into the defect of left knee joint in group A as group BMSCs/HAAM and HAAM into group B as group HAAM.These rabbits were killed at 4 and 12 weeks after surgery in each group and the newly cartilage samples were evaluated grossly,histologically are graded.Results In the 4th and 12th week after the operation,the regenerated tissue were white,soft and smooth.Chondrocytes were found in the tissue In the 12th week,the morphology,distribution and arrangement of the regenerated tissues were similar to normal cartilage in the knees with HAAM-BMSCs transplantation.The regenerated tissues grew to be integrated with the surrounding normal cartilage with obscure boundary between them.Chondrocytes were found in all layer of the tissue,surrounding normal cartilage with obscure boundary between them.In the HAAM transplantation,the rough surface of regenerated tissue sunk obviously and the fibmblasts in all layer were found.While there were no regenerated tissue in the control side.Conclusion BMSCs seeded on HAAM could repair the articular cartilage defects of femoral intercondylar fossa from rabbits.

Objective To investigate whether lipids and reagents would interfere the results when serum total bile acid(TBA) was measured by enzymatic cycling assay.Methods The serum TBA was measured by enzymatic cycling assay.The carry-over contaminations of high density lipoprotein(HDL-C),low density lipoprotein(LDL-C),cholesterol(TC),and triglyceride(TG)rea-gents were evaluated.In order to reduce the interference and carry-over contaminations,different washing procedures and detection sequence were set.Results By measuring the levels of TBA in pooled serums with low and high levels of lipids,the results showed that there was statistically significant difference between the groups with and without the addition of cleaning process before and af-ter TBA measurement(P <0.01).Cleaning with water might be more effective on reducing interference than those with acid solu-tion.Moreover,the mean of TBA levels in HDL-C,TC,TG and LDL-C reagents were (476.06 ± 1.88 ),(127.78 ± 1.18 ), (121.05±1.08),and (2.23±0.51)μmol/L,respectively.The stability of TBA level was greatly affected by HDL-C regents,fol-lowing by TC and TG reagents,and was little affected by LDL-C reagent.Setting up proper detection sequence and flushing proce-dures could obviously reduce the interference(P <0.01),but not completely rule out.Conclusion Analysis sequence and flushing procedures of biochemical analyzer as well as exogenous substance from reagents may seriously affect the accuracy of determination results.To ensure the accuracy and reliability of the results,it is necessary not only to set up reasonable irrigation and reaction se-quence,but also to master the instrument operation,to know the principle of test reaction and the components of reagents as well as equipment maintenance.

Rhamnolipid biosurfactant is mainly produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa that is the opportunistic pathogenic strain and not suitable for future industrial development. In order to develop a relatively safe microbial strain for the production of rhamnolipid biosurfactant, we constructed engineered Escherichia coli strains for rhamnolipid production by expressing different copy numbers of rhamnosyltransferase (rhlAB) gene with the constitutive synthetic promoters of different strengths in E. coli ATCC 8739. We further studied the combinatorial regulation of rhlAB gene and rhaBDAC gene cluster for dTDP-1-rhamnose biosynthesis with different synthetic promoters, and obtained the best engineered strain-E. coli TIB-RAB226. Through the optimization of culture temperature, the titer of rhamnolipd reached 124.3 mg/L, 1.17 fold higher than that under the original condition. Fed-batch fermentation further improved the production of rhamnolipid and the titer reached the highest 209.2 mg/L within 12 h. High performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis showed that there are total 5 mono-rhamnolipid congeners with different nuclear mass ratio and relative abundance. This study laid foundation for heterologous biosynthesis of rhanomilipd.
