Objective:To explore the effects of apigenin on apoptosis and hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α)/nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway in renal cancer A498 cells.Methods:Human renal cell carcinoma A498 cells were cultured in vitro and divided into different concentrations of apigenin (10, 20, 40 μmol/L) groups, apigenin (40 μmol/L)+ HIF-1α agonist dimethylenediaminoacetic acid (DMOG) group, HIF-1α inhibitor rifiximab (YC-1) group, and control group. Cell proliferation was detected using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and plate clone formation assay, apoptosis was detected using Hoechst 33258 staining and flow cytometry, and expression of apoptotic proteins and HIF-1/NF-B pathway proteins was detected using Western blot assay.Results:Celery extract significantly inhibited the proliferation of A498 cells, and the inhibitory effect was concentration dependent ( P<0.001). Compared with the control group, the apoptosis rates of A498 cells in the 10, 20, and 40 μmol/L apigenin groups and YC-1 groups were significantly increased [(4.35±1.04)% vs (10.06±1.13)%, (18.52±2.58)%, (32.17±2.63)%, (26.94±2.41)%], as well as the expression levels of B lymphocyte tumor 2 related protein (Bax) and Cleaved Caspase-3 protein, while the expression levels of B lymphocyte tumor 2 (Bcl-2) were significantly reduced (all P<0.001). Compared with the control group, the HIF-1α protein expression levels (0.85±0.08 vs 0.63±0.06, 0.31±0.03, 0.16±0.02) and p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65 ratio (0.82±0.08 vs 0.51±0.05, 0.30±0.03, 0.13±0.01) of A498 cells in the 10, 20, and 40 μmol/L apigenin groups were significantly reduced (all P<0.001). Compared with the apigenin group, the apoptosis rate of A498 cells in the apigenin+ DMOG group was significantly reduced [(32.17±2.63)% vs (14.85±1.62)%], and the expression levels of Bax and Cleared Caspase-3 proteins were significantly reduced, while the expression levels of Bcl-2 proteins were significantly increased (all P<0.001). Conclusions:Apigenin may promote apoptosis in renal cancer A498 cells by inhibiting the activation of the HIF-1α/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objectives:To explore the cardiac magnetic resonance(CMR)features of early ventricular aneurysm formation in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction. Methods:One hundred and eight patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention and completed CMR scans within two weeks were retrospectively analyzed and divided into non-ventricular aneurysm group(n=72)and ventricular aneurysm group(n=36)according to the absence or presence of early ventricular aneurysm after primary percutaneous coronary intervention.The obtained CMR images were imported into CVI42 software for image analysis,and a logistic regression analysis model was established to evaluate CMR features useful for the diagnosis of early ventricular aneurysm formation. Results:Aging and larger area of late gadolinium enhancement(LGE)and worse left ventricular systolic function and lower myocardial strain were features of patients in the ventricular aneurysm group as compared to the non-ventricular aneurysm group.LGE area(OR=1.32,95%CI:1.071-1.628,P=0.009),apical angle(OR=1.24,95%CI:1.041-1.475,P=0.016),septal mitral annular plane systolic excursion(septal MAPSE,OR=0.36,95%CI:0.169-0.757,P=0.007)and global longitudinal strain(GLS,OR=0.53,95%CI:0.154-0.953,P=0.046)were associated with early ventricular aneurysm formation.ROC curves were analyzed for the above four CMR parameters,and the AUC were 0.922,0.921,0.905,and 0.814,respectively.The optimal cutoff values were 28.5%,90°,8.245 mm,and 10.155%,respectively. Conclusions:Estimation of LGE area,apical angle,septal MAPSE and GLS using CMR technique can help diagnose early ventricular aneurysm in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of serum containing Sanwubai San on TGF-β1 induced epithelial mesenchymal transition （EMT） of human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells and its mechanism in vitro based on transforming growth factor-β/Smad（TGF-β/Smad）signaling pathway. MethodTwenty-eight male SD rats （SPF grade， three months） were randomly divided into blank group and Sanwubai low （0.031 25 g·kg-1·d-1， ig）， medium （0.062 5 g·kg-1·d-1， ig） and high （0.125 g·kg-1·d-1， ig） dose groups， seven in each group. The blank group was given the same volume of ultrapure water （ig）. The gavage was performed once a day for seven consecutive days. The serum containing the drug was taken from the abdominal aorta 45 min after the last administration. Cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） method was used to detect the effect of serum in Sanwubai San high dose group on the activity of SGC-7901 cells. Changes of cell morphology after treatment with TGF-β1 and serum containing Sanwubai San were observed by microscopy， and the migration rate and invasion rate of the SGC-7901 cells were detected by cell scratch assay and transwell assay， respectively. Western blot was used to detect the expression of E-cadherin， snail， TGF-β1， Smad3， p-Smad3 and Smad7 proteins. ResultCompared with the blank group， 10%， 15% and 20% high-dose Sanwubai San inhibited the activity of SGC-7901 cells in a concentration and time dependent manner. Compared with the conditions in the blank group， the cells in the model group lost spindle shape， and most cells became round and long. Compared with the model group， the Sanwubai San groups had decreased pseudopodia and small cells with the morphology returning to normal. Compared with the conditions in the blank group， enhanced ability of cell migration and invasion （P<0.01）， lowered expression of E-cadherin and Smad7 （P<0.01）， and increased expression of Snail， p-Smad3 and TGF-β1 （P<0.01） were found in the model group， with the total protein level of Smad3 remaining unchanged. Compared with the conditions in the model group， the cell migration ability was inhibited in the Sanwubai San high and medium dose groups （P<0.01） after 24 h， and the ability was inhibited in all three Sanwubai San groups after 48 h （P<0.01）， while the invasion ability was enhanced. In addition， the Sanwubai San high and medium dose groups had elevated expression of E-cadherin （P<0.01） and Smad7 （P<0.01）， and decreased expression of Snail （P<0.01）， and the expression of TGF-β1 and p-Smad3 was down-regulated in the three Sanwubai San groups （P<0.01）. ConclusionSanwubai San could inhibit TGF-β1 induced EMT in SGC-7901 cells， and its mechanism might be related to the regulation of TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway.

Objective To analyze the clinical distribution and change of antimicrobial resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and observe the use of clinical antibiotics so as to provide guidance for the rational use of antibiotics and the effective control of infection. Methods Retrospective review on distribution and antimicrobial resistance of the 859 strains Pseudomonas aeruginosa collected from January 2012 to December 2014, the use of corresponding antibiotics was analyzed in terms of DDDs and use intensity. Results A total of 859 P. aeruginosa strains were isolated, mostly from sputum specimens(583 strains, 67.9%) and burn specimens (110 strains, 12.8%). The isolation rate of multi-drug resistant P. aeruginosa (MDRPA) was 19.0%and the isolation rate of pan-drug resistant P. aeruginosa (PDRPA) was 5.5%. According to the resistance monitoring results, the antimicrobial resistance rate of P. aeruginosa to amikacin, piperacillin-tazobactam and gentamicin were less than 10.0%, the antimicrobial resistance rate to meropenem, piperacillin, ciprofloxacin, cefepime, ceftazidime, imipenem, levofloxacin and aztreonam varied at 12.4%-23.9%. The DDDs showed that the use intensity of cefuroxime, cefoperazone-sulbactam and levofloxacin ranked in the top 4 for three consecutive years, while that of meropenem and imipenem stayed a relatively low level, the use intensity of aztre-onam reduced substantially. Conclusion P. aeruginosa was the main cause of respiratory tract and burn wound infec-tion, the detection rate of showed an upward trend from 2012 to 2014, while the detection rate of multi-drug resistant P. aeruginosa (MDRPA) and pan-drug resistant P. aeruginosa (PDRPA) has declined. The resistance rate of P. aerugi-nosa to commonly used antimicrobial agents was decreased. Therefore, the work of monitoring drug resistance and pro-moting rational application of antibiotics should be strengthened.

A total of 272 lots of immunoglobulin products was investigated, and the anti- body potency of measles was determined by hemogglutination inhibition test. The total antibody potencies of diphtheria, pertusis, rubella, epidemic hemorrhagic lever and titer of anti-HBs and anti-HAY were tested in some lots of immunoglobulin produced in recent years. The results provided a scien- tific basis for clinical use.
