Exosome-mediated regulatory mechanisms in skeletal muscle: a narrative review / 浙江大学学报（英文版）（B辑：生物医学和生物技术）

Skeletal muscle plays a paramount role in physical activity, metabolism, and energy balance, while its homeostasis is being challenged by multiple unfavorable factors such as injury, aging, or obesity. Exosomes, a subset of extracellular vesicles, are now recognized as essential mediators of intercellular communication, holding great clinical potential in the treatment of skeletal muscle diseases. Herein, we outline the recent research progress in exosomal isolation, characterization, and mechanism of action, and emphatically discuss current advances in exosomes derived from multiple organs and tissues, and engineered exosomes regarding the regulation of physiological and pathological development of skeletal muscle. These remarkable advances expand our understanding of myogenesis and muscle diseases. Meanwhile, the engineered exosome, as an endogenous nanocarrier combined with advanced design methodologies of biomolecules, will help to open up innovative therapeutic perspectives for the treatment of muscle diseases.

Detection of ESBLs Produced by E. coli in Urinary Tract and Monitoring of Drug Resistance of ESBLs-producing E.coli / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the condition of ESBLs produced by E.coli isolated from urinary tract and the drug resistance of ESBLs-producing E.coli.METHODS:The identification of bacteria was performed using ATB-Expression analysator(France);the susceptibility test was performed using K-B method,and ESBLs were detected using disc diffusion confirmatory test.RESULTS:The detection rate of ESBLs-producing E.coli was 31.8%.All(100%)of the 107 strains of ESBLs-producing E.coli were sensitive to imipenem,however,in which different degree of resistance to other antibiotics was noted.The resistance rate was significantly higher in ESBLs-producing strains than in non-ESBLs-producing strains.CON-CLUSION:In view of the high antibiotic resistance of ESBLs-producing E.coli,great importance should be attached to the detection of the ESBLs.Antibiotics should be used rationally based on the results of susceptibility test.
