Tanshinone ⅡA improves memory deficits by inhibiting the endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis in Alzheimer's disease mice / 西安交通大学学报(医学版)

Objective: To investigate the protective effects of tanshinone ⅡA (tan ⅡA) against memory deficits induced by streptozotocin (STZ) in a model of sporadic Alzheimer's disease. Methods: Kunming mice were randomly divided into five groups (n=10 in each group): control group, STZ group, and tan ⅡA low, medium and high groups. Mice in the STZ and three tan ⅡA groups were given intracerebroventrically injection of STZ (3 mg/kg bilaterally, on day 1 and day 3). Tan ⅡA (20, 40, and 80 mg/kg every day) was administered intragastrically for 28 days starting from the first dose of STZ. Learning and memory were evaluated with a Morris water maze (MWM) test. Nissl method was used to observe neurons damage in the cortex and the hippocampus, and Western blot method to analyze endoplasmic reticulum stress markers and apoptosis signaling proteins. Results: Daily treatment with tan ⅡA showed a dose-dependent improvement in STZ-induced memory deficits. Nissl staining results confirmed the protective effects of tan ⅡA on cortical and hippocampal neurons damage induced by STZ. In addition, tan ⅡA markedly prevented STZ-induced abnormal expression of glucose regulated protein 78 (GRP78), initiation factor 2α (eIF2α), activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6), as well as suppressed the activation of C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathways. Moreover, tan ⅡA induced an up-regulation of the Bcl-2/Bax ratio and down-regulation of cleaved caspase-3 protein activity. Conclusion: Tan ⅡA prevents STZ-induced memory deficits, which may be attributed to attenuating endoplasmic reticulum stress and neuronal apoptosis.

Molecular epidemiological characteristics of Streptococcus pyogenes causing scarlet fever and angina in children / 中华微生物学和免疫学杂志

Objective@#To investigate the antimicrobial resistance, macrolide-resistance genes, virulence genes and emm types in Streptococcus pyogenes isolates.@*Methods@#A total of 247 oropharyngeal swab specimens were collected from pediatric outpatients (aged 2-11 years) who were clinically diagnosed as scarlet fever in Children′s Hospital of Fudan University from January to December, 2018. These specimens were timely sent to the Microbiology Laboratory for isolation and identification of Streptococcus pyogenes strains were isolate after culturing and identified with bacitracin susceptibility test. Moreover, the diameter of bacitracin inhibition zone was measured by vernier caliper. Their susceptibility to seven antibiotics, including erythromycin, clarithromycin, clindamycin, ampicillin, ceftriaxone, norfloxacin and chloramphenicol, were measured using KB method. Macrolide-resistance genes (mefA, ermA, ermB and Tn916 transposon) and virulence genes (speA, speB, speC, speG, speH, speI, speJ and speK) were detected by PCR. Amplification and sequencing of emm gene were conducted according to the protocol in the website of Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).@*Results@#A total of 86 strains of Streptococcus pyogenes were isolated from the 247 specimens. Their resistance rates to erythromycin, clarithromycin and clindamycin were 89.5%, 95.3% and 96.5%, respectively. However, these isolates showed high susceptibility to ampicillin (100.0%), ceftriaxone (100.0%), norfloxacin (90.7%) and chloramphenicol (95.3%). The positive rates of mefA, ermA, ermB and Tn916 genes were 20.9%, 24.4%, 98.8% and 97.7%. There was significant difference in the mefA-carrying rates between patients with scarlet fever and angina. The positive rates of virulence genes of speA, speB, speC, speG, speH, speI, speJ, speK, speL and speM were 8.1%, 100.0%, 95.3%, 100.0%, 80.2%, 90.7%, 10.5%, 100.0%, 5.8% and 5.8%. Seven emm types were identified and the predominant types were emm12.0 (75.6%), emm12.19 (9.3%) and emm1.0 (8.1%). The diameter of bacitracin inhibition zone was smaller in isolates of emm1.0 type than in emm12.0 type strains. The profile of virulence genes varied in the strains of different emm types. All types of strains carried speB, speG and speK genes. The isolates of emm1.0 type carried speA virulence gene, while speB, speC, speG, speH, speI and speK genes were more often identified in emm12.0 type isolates.@*Conclusions@#This study showed that emm types were associated with the profile of virulence genes and the diameter of bacitracin inhibition zone. It was recommended that the diameter of bacitracin inhibition zone should be measured in bacitracin inhibition susceptibility test apart from only observing the formation of inhibition zone.

Advances on antimicrobial resistance research of Salmonella enterica Serovar Indiana / 中华预防医学杂志

Salmonella enterica Serovar Indiana is a common serotype of Salmonella isolated from food especially from poultry meat. Recently it demonstrated a raising tendency of infection cases and isolate numbers with high antimicrobial resistant rate against many common antimicrobials, including quinolones and cephalosporin which were regarded as the first line drug for the treatment of Salmonella infections, and this kind of Salmonella serotype was always carrying complex resistance mechanisms and also a variety of mobile elements, all of these features made the very clinical infections caused by Salmonella hard to treat and brought great difficulties and risks. Here, we review the prevalence of Samonella Indiana on national and international view, and we also anticipate the research progress on antimicrobial drug classes, multi drug resistance, co-resistance and resistance mechanism. We discuss the resistant genotypes, phenotypes, mechanism and transmission of Salmonella Indiana strains isolated from different origins. By introducing the resistance of Salmonella Indiana, we want to attract people's attention to this bacteria and its hazard, and offer some idea to evaluate and treat infections in clinical.
