Objective To study the effect of intratracheal anti-tumor necrosis factor-α antibody(TNF-αAb)on ultra-structure of lung after cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB).Method 28 healthy rabbits were selected and randomly evenly divided into four groups:I group only received open chest operation;Ⅱ-Ⅳ groups underwent CPB.In the IV group,rabbit TNF-α Ab (2400 ps/kg)Was dropped into the intracheal tube before operation and just after releasing the aortic clamp.Saline was given to the Ⅲ group by the same way.Water volume,TNF-α mRNA,TNF-α protein,apoptosis and pathomorphological changes were measured in the lung tissues.Results TNF-α Ab can re-duce releasing of TNF-α.It could also reduce the occurrence of apeptosis and attenuate pathomorphological changes in the lung tissue.Conclusion Intratracheal TNF-α Ab markedly lessenes the injury of nltrastructure of lung after CPB.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the inclusion process of the volatile oil of Pogostemon cablin and Acorus tatarinowii in Xiaoyu anshen capsule.METHODS:The inclusion process was carried out by saturated water solution method.And the inclusion process was optimized by orthogonal experiment with the inclusion ratio and yield of the volatile oil as indexes taking the ratio of volatile oil to ?-CD,the temperature and the time of inclusion as factors.The physical phase of the inclusion complex was detected by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC).RESULTS:The optimum inclusion process was established as follows:the ratio of oil to ?-CD=1∶8;the ratio of water to ?-CD=10∶1;the inclusion time was 1h and the inclusion temperature was 50 ℃.The inclusion rate was as high as 90%.The DSC revealed that a new physical phase has been formed for the inclusion complex.CONCLUSION:The intermolecular inclusion complex with good stability and high yield of volatile oil could be obtained from the optimized inclusion process.

The effect of addition nucleotides on heparinase production by Flavobacterium heparinum was reseached. The result indicated that addition of nucleotides cause different effects on heparinase production depend on its addi ng mode, single kind of nucleotide would restrain, but multiplex promote. The s trongest promotion happened when the propotion of nucleotides was consistent wit h the nucleic acids of heparinase mRNA. HPLC result confined the entrance of nu cleoides to the bactera cell. And it also suggested the synthesis metabolic of nucleic acids in F.heparinum was imbalance, there always be higher lever of purin nucleoides. L-Asp was added to medium culture to enhance pyridine nucle oides thynesis in order to improve the enzyme production ,which has been affecte d by the imbalance of nucleoides.

The effects of microRNA-34a (miR-34a)-regulated Notch1 gene on the proliferation and apoptosis of the human glioma cell line U87 were investigated in this study. The U87 cells were divided into miR-34a mimics, negative control, mock transfection and blank control groups in terms of different treatments. In miR-34a mimics group, human U87 glioma cells were transfected with miR-34a mimics by using lipofectamine 2000. The cells transfected with nonsense microRNA were set up as negative control group. Those treated with lipofectamine 2000 only were designated to the mock tranfection group. In the blank control group, the cells were cultured routinely and no treatment was given. The expression of miR-34a and Notch1 was detected by using real-time RT-PCR. Western blotting was employed to monitor the change in Notch1 protein. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were measured by CCK-8 and flow cytometry. The results showed that the proliferative ability of U87 cells was significantly reduced and the apoptotic cells increased in miR-34a mimics group relative to control groups. The expression of miR-34a was significantly up-regulated in mimics group as compared with control groups (P<0.05). Furthermore, Notch1 protein levels were significantly decreased in miR-34a mimics group when compared with control groups (P<0.05), but the mRNA expression of Notch1 showed no significant difference among these groups. It was concluded that miR-34a may suppress the proliferation and induce apoptosis of U87 cells by decreasing the expression of target gene Notch1, suggesting that miR-34a may become a promising gene therapeutic target for brain glioma.

Objective To investigate behavior,knowledge and attitude of cigarette smoking,and their relationship among different occupational population in Jiangsu Province.Methods Convenient sampling was used to interview 516 staff from medical institution,schools,government offices,public transportations and waiting rooms,restaurants and internet bars.The content of interview included current smoking,second-hand smoking,and related knowledge and attitude.Results Proportion of current smoking in male(51.2%)was higher than that in female(0.3%,P90%),while it's relatively lower in "second-hand smoking and exact related diseases"(

Plant transgenic system secures a safe,economical and reliable supply of recombinant proteins.Plant oilbody expression system simplifies the downstream purification steps and reduces capital investment based on the nature of oleosin including high expression and easy extraction.The structures and characteristics of seed oil body and oleosin were reviewed.And the research progress and industry of the seed oil body expression system,as a new bioreactor,to produce valuable recombinant proteins were discussed.The benefits and questions of the oil body expression system were also set forth.New medicine haFGF based on the oilbody system is being developed,and its biological activity is being analyzed.As a new resource for medicine protein,oilbody expression system will be perfected and applied broadly.
