As one of the key enzymes in cell metabolism, the activity of citrate synthase 3 (CS3) regulates the substance and energy metabolism of organisms. The protein members of CS3 family were identified from the whole genome of apple, and bioinformatics analysis was performed and expression patterns were analyzed to provide a theoretical basis for studying the potential function of CS3 gene in apple. BLASTp was used to identify members of the apple CS3 family based on the GDR database, and the basic information of CS3 protein sequence, subcellular localization, domain composition, phylogenetic relationship and chromosome localization were analyzed by Pfam, SMART, MEGA5.0, clustalx.exe, ExPASy Proteomics Server, MEGAX, SOPMA, MEME, WoLF PSORT and other software. The tissue expression and inducible expression characteristics of 6 CS3 genes in apple were determined by acid content and real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Apple CS3 gene family contains 6 members, and these CS3 proteins contain 473-608 amino acid residues, with isoelectric point distribution between 7.21 and 8.82. Subcellular localization results showed that CS3 protein was located in mitochondria and chloroplasts, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis divided them into 3 categories, and the number of genes in each subfamily was 2. Chromosome localization analysis showed that CS3 gene was distributed on different chromosomes of apple. The secondary structure of protein is mainly α-helix, followed by random curling, and the proportion of β-angle is the smallest. The 6 members were all expressed in different apple tissues. The overall expression trend from high to low was the highest relative expression content of MdCS3.4, followed by MdCS3.6, and the relative expression level of other members was in the order of MdCS3.3 > MdCS3.2 > MdCS3.1 > MdCS3.5. qRT-PCR results showed that MdCS3.1 and MdCS3.3 genes had the highest relative expression in the pulp of 'Chengji No. 1' with low acid content, and MdCS3.2 and MdCS3.3 genes in the pulp of 'Asda' with higher acid content had the highest relative expression. Therefore, in this study, the relative expression of CS3 gene in apple cultivars with different acid content in different apple varieties was detected, and its role in apple fruit acid synthesis was analyzed. The experimental results showed that the relative expression of CS3 gene in different apple varieties was different, which provided a reference for the subsequent study of the quality formation mechanism of apple.

Pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 component subunit beta-1 (PDHB-1) is a gene encoding the β-subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, which plays an important role in fruit acid accumulation. The aim of this study was to investigate the evolution characteristics of apple PDHB-1 family and its expression in apples with different acid contents. Bioinformatics analysis was performed using databases including NCBI, Pfam and software including ClustalX, MEGA, and TBtools. By combining titratable acid content determination and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), the expression of this family genes in the peel and pulp of apple 'Asda' and 'Chengji No.1' with different acid content were obtained, respectively. The family members were mainly located in chloroplast, cytoplasm and mitochondria. α-helix and random coil were the main factors for the formation of secondary structure in this family. Tissue-specific expression profiles showed that the expression of most members were higher in fruit than in other tissues. qRT-PCR results showed that the expression profile of most members was consistent with the profile of titratable acid contents. In the peel, the expression levels of 14 members in 'Asda' apples with high acid content were significantly higher than that in 'Chengji No.1' apples with low acid content, where the expression difference of MdPDHB1-15 was the most significant. In the pulp, the expression levels of 17 members in 'Asda' apples were significantly higher than that in 'Chengji No.1' apples, where MdPDHB1-01 was the most highly expressed. It was predicted that PDHB-1 gene family in apple plays an important role in the regulation of fruit acidity.

Compared with VIN group ,there was no statistical difference in the pharmacokinetic parameters of AVA in rat plasma of VEN+VIN group (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS After the combination of VEN and VIN ,VIN can affect the metabolism of VEN by increasing the absorption of VEN and ODV and slowing down their elimination.
Résumé
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), as an effecitive life support technique, is widely used in patients with respiratory and/or cardiac failure. Infection, with a prevalence of approximately 21% in adult patients with ECMO, is one of the most common complications and has a significant impact on mortality. Early identification of infections, and accurate prevention and anti-infective therapies for ECMO patients can improve their survival, but there is a lack of standardized protocols for recognition, diagnosis, management, prevention and treatment of the infections. By analyzing a series of literatures on healthcare-associated infections in patients with ECMO, the epidemiology, pathogens, risk factors, diagnosis, prevention and treatment were summarized to provide a theoretical background for the early identification, diagnosis and patient management of nosocomial infections.

Objective To observe the effects of vaporized perfluorocarbon (PFC) combined with exogenous pulmonary surfactant (PS) inhalation on rabbit models of acute lung injury (ALI).Methods Thirty-two New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into four groups: ALI group, combination treatment group, PFC group, and PS group (each groupn = 8 rabbits). The rabbit model of ALI was induced by the whole lung normal saline lavage. After modeling, in the combined group, 3 mL/kg vaporized perfluorooctyl bromide/dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (PFOB/DPPC) emulsion was inhaled, the rabbits in PFC and PS groups were treated with vaporized PFOB emulsion and vaporized DPPC emulsion 3 mL/kg inhalation respectively, and in the ALI group was given the same amount of vaporized normal saline inhalation. In each group, before modeling for 30 minutes (basic value), after modeling for 1 hour and after treatment at 0 minute, 30 minutes, 2 hours, 4 hours, the respiratory rate (RR), oxygenation index (OI), dynamic lung compliance (Cdyn) were observed, and the lung coefficient (LI) and lung permeability index (LPI) were calculated; the levels of serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) were measured by double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); the lung tissue was collected and the lung pathological changes were observed under macroscopic and microscopic observation.Results Aftermodeling, the levels of OI, Cdyn were quickly lowered, RR became significantly elevated, and there were obvious edema, hemorrhage and exudation in lung tissue of ALI group. The levels of OI were significantly increased in combined group and PFC group compared with the level in ALI group after treatment at 0 minute initially [mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 231.0±16.7, 221.4±19.0 vs. 189.5±21.0, both P < 0.05], while the level of OI in PS group was increased significantly until 4 hours after treatment, being higher than that in ALI group (mmHg: 297.0±20.7 vs. 243.3±36.7,P < 0.05); RR was decreased significantly in combined treatment group at 30 minutes after treatment compared with that in ALI group (bpm: 151.1±13.3 vs. 178.5±32.0,P < 0.05), while the RR in PFC group and PS group were not increased significantly until 4 hours after treatment being higher than that in ALI group (bpm: 129.3±14.3, 133.1±13.9 vs. 157.5±32.5, bothP < 0.05). Compared to ALI group, the three treatment groups resulted in significant improvement in Cdyn right at 0 minute (mL/cmH2O: 1.64±0.10, 1.45±0.10, 1.43±0.09 vs. 0.57±0.05, allP < 0.05), their LPI, LI and inflammatory cytokines were significantly decreased [LPI (×10-5): 4.21±0.42, 4.76±0.55, 4.87±0.49 vs. 5.56±0.52, LI: 8.04±0.58, 8.90±0.88, 9.22±0.71 vs. 10.85±0.73, TNF-α (ng/L): 50.05±4.91, 56.18±5.54, 63.60±5.96 vs. 73.60±5.27, IL-1β (ng/L): 34.27±4.55, 40.29±5.03, 48.13±6.38 vs. 54.71±4.26, allP<0.05], and pulmonary edema, congestion and inflammatory cell infiltration were obviously ameliorated (pathological scores: 3.74±0.58, 4.50±0.75, 5.29±0.72 vs. 6.13±0.72, P < 0.05). Cdyn levels were increased significantly in combined treatment group at 0 minute, 30 minutes, 4 hours after treatment compared with thosein PFC and PS group, but there were no significant differences between PFC and PS group. Levels of LI, LPI, inflammatory factors and pathological scores were decreased significantly in combined treatment group compared with those in PFC and PS group, the degrees of improvement of inflammatory factors and pathological scores in PFC group were more obvious than those in PS group (allP < 0.05).Conclusions PFOB combined with DPPC inhalation can provide greater oxygen delivery, reduce the pro-inflammatory cytokines, supplement PS and influence its distribution on the surface of lung, which might lead to a marked and sustained improvement in oxygenation, pulmonary function and amelioration of lung edema and inflammatory reaction in saline lavage induced lung injury of rabbits.

Objective The aim of our study is to investigate the prevalence of Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) and the genetic characteristics of the class 1 integron in CRKP on multi-drug resistance.Methods Clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae strains were collected from multiple departments of a hospital in central China. CRKP strains were identified among the isolates, and antibiotics susceptibility of CRKP strains was analyzed. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was adopted to amplify the class 1 integron variable area. The integron genetic structure was analyzed with enzyme digestion and DNA sequencing technology. The relation between class 1 integron and drug resistance was analyzed statistically.Results Totally 955 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae were isolated from varied sites of the hospital, and 117(12.3%) of them were identified as CRKP, with a separation rate of 8.9% (26/292) in 2013, 11.3% (38/336) in 2014 and 16.2% (53/327) in 2015, which shows an increasing trend by year. 44.4% (52/117) of CRKP strains were separated from specimen of ICU, and 61.5% (72/117) were from sputum. Over 95% CRKP strains were resistant to ampicillin/sulbactam, aztreonam, imipenem, meropenem, ceftazidme, cefotaxime, cefepime,and piperacillin, while relatively low resistant rates were found in tigecycline (12.8%) and colistin (35.9%). The class 1 integron was detected in 77.8% (91/117) of CRKP strains. Class 1 integron of CRKP was significantly correlated with the antibiotic resistance to the tobramycin, gentamicin and amikacin (all P<0.01). The gene cassette analysis of variable area of class 1 integron showed that aadA2 accounts for 64.8% (59/91), aacA4-catB8-aadA1 23.1% (21/91), and aadA2-dfrA25 12.1% (11/91).Conclusions CRKP has an increasing trend in a clinical setting in China, and most of them were resistant to multiple antibiotics. Class 1 integron in CRKP has strong ability to capture the genes resistant to aminoglycosides antibiotics from environment, with the aadA2 gene as the most popular one.

Objective To evaluate the effects of Xuebijing injection on inflammatory response in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) by the changes of the level of PCT in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and plasma so as well as serum tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) 、interleukin-6(IL-6) and interleukin-8( IL-8). Methods Sixty patients treated at the intensive care unit(ICU) were recruited in this study;these subjects satisfied the diagnostic criteria for ARDS. They were randomly classified into two groups: study group ( 30 patients) in which patients were given Xuebijing injection 100ml and 5% Glucose injection 150 ml daily,and control group(30 patients) patients were given 5% Glucose injection 250ml daily. The changes of the level of PCT in BALF and plasma so as well as serum TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-8 were monitored before intervention and seven days later. Results The level of PCT in BALF and plasma before intervention were statistically higher than normal( t= 2.882、2.657 all P <0.01 )while decreased significantly seven days later ( all P < 0.01 ) in study group but fewer change in control group ( all P >0.05 ). Levels of TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-8 were statistically higher than normal before intervention( all P < 0.05 ) while decreased significantly seven days later( all P <0.01 )in study group but fewer change in control group( all P >0.05 ). The mortality of patients was 26.7% ( study group) and 33.3% ( control group) ( all P < 0.05 ) respectively.Conclusion Xuebijing injection could lower the level of PCT in BALP and plasma of patients with ARDS,played the role of antiinflammatory and improving the oxygenation, and could to reduce the mortality of patients.
Résumé
Objective To investigate the effects of probiotics on the plasma diamine oxidase (DAO) activity and D-lactate, IL-6 and IL-10 levels in patients undergoing open heart surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) , trying to elucidate the mechanism of protective effect of probiotics against CPB- induced injury to intestinal mucosal barrier. Methods Forty ASA Ⅱ - Ⅲ patients of both sexes aged 30-64 yr weighing 40-80 kg undergoing open heart operation under CPB were randomized into 2 groups ( n = 20 each) : control group (group C) and probiotics group (group Y) . Group Y received Jinshuangqi (Bifid Triple Viable containing bifido-bacterium, lacto-bacillus, streptococcus thermophiles) 4 pills 3 times a day for 7 days before operation. Venous blood samples were taken from CVP line before operation (T1 ), at 10 min after aortic unclamping (T2 ) and at the end of CPB (T3 ) and at 2, 6, 18 h (T4,5,6) after operation for determination of plasma DAO activity and D-lactate, IL-6 and IL-10 levels.Results Plasma DAO activity, D-lactate, IL-6 and IL-10 levels were significantly increased after CPB was started at T2-6 as compared with the baseline values at T1 in both groups. Plasma DAO activity and D-lactate level were significantly lower at T2-5 , the plasma IL-6 level was significantly lower and plasma IL-10 level higher at T4,5 in group Y than in group C. Conclusion Probiotics can protect intestinal mucosal barrier in patients undergoing open heart surgery under CPB and attenuate inflammatory response.
Résumé
Objective To explore the function of intensive care unit (ICU) in earthquake disaster. Mothod ICU in tent set by doctors from Second Military Medical University and Sichuan Jiangyou People's Hospital in 5·12 Wenchuan earthquake disaster. The value of ICU in tent was estimated by retrospective analysis of the experi-ence of emergency treatment for the critical injuries. Results Inside ICU in tent,there were many critical patients successfully rescued, including a soldier with septic shock, a casualty with traumatic shock during aftershock, a middle school student with crush injury and cornpartment syndrone, a peasant trapped under mined buildings for 168 hours with capillary leak syndrome, and a traffic victim and an aged patient with cardiac arrest. Patients after replatation of severed limb and patients after thoracic operation were monitored. Teaching rounds in the wards and logistics health drilling were made as well. Conclusions ICU in tent as a place where the critical casualties and patients after major operations could be rescued,cared for and monitored successfully,as well as the venue of teach-ing activity and logistics health drilling.
