Background
Using a rat model we have found that the bioflavonoid silymarin (SY) ameliorates some of the negative consequences of in utero exposure to ethanol (EtOH). In the current study our aim was to determine if spatial working memory (SWM) was impaired in offspring whose mothers were maintained on a liquid diet containing EtOH during different gestational weeks. We also determined if SWM was altered with a concomitant administration of SY with EtOH during specific gestational weeks. 相似文献2.

Aim
Clostridium difficile is the most common agent of postantibiotic and nosocomial bacterial diarrhoea. Since the emergence of the highly virulent and epidemic strain NAP1/027 in Europe, it appears necessary to isolate C. difficile strains to realize an epidemiologic follow-up by molecular typing. The aim of this work was to compare three selective culture conditions for the isolation of C. difficile.Methods
One hundred and thirty stools collected from patients hospitalized at Jean Verdier were swabbed on the commercial medium CLO (BioMérieux) and on a medium prepared at the laboratory (CCTa: Columbia, cefoxitine 8 mg/l, cycloserine 250 mg/l, horse blood 5 %, sodium taurocholate 0.1 %) with and without preliminary alcoholic shock (EtOH). C. difficile was isolated from 38 stools and colonies were counted on each medium.Results
The fluorescence intensity of C. difficile colonies is comparable on CLO and CCTa-EtOH media, however their aspect is more characteristic on CLO. This medium appears very selective contrary to the CCTa medium on which an associated flora obstructs the fluorescence reading and requires a new isolation of the suspect strains. On average 30 times more colonies of C. difficile are counted on CCTa ± EtOH than on CLO, suggesting the presence of great proportions of spores in the stools.Conclusions
The medium CLO is successful for the isolation of C. difficile despite of its selectivity. Nevertheless, it appears interesting to associate a medium enhancing spore germination as the CCTa medium inoculated after alcoholic shock to increase the sensitivity of detection while being freed from conservation and transport conditions. 相似文献7.

Background
The proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of vascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and postangioplasty restenosis. The largest subunit of the origin recognition complex (ORC), ORC1, plays a critical role during the initiation of DNA replication in eukaryotes. However, the involvement of ORC1 in the initiation of DNA replication in VSMCs has not been studied yet.Objective
The aim of this study was to silence ORC1 gene selectively by using RNA interference and analyze the effects of ORC1 gene on the proliferation and apoptosis of rat VSMCs.Methods
Freshly isolated rat VSMCs were transfected with siRNA targeting ORC1 gene capsulated in liposome. ORC1 protein expression was determined by Western blotting and ORC1 mRNA level by RT-PCR. DNA synthesis was analyzed by 3H thymidine (3H-TdR) incorporation and cell proliferative activity and cell cycle distribution by flow cytometry. Two apoptosis-related proteins, Bax and Bcl-2, were examined immunohistochemically.Results
Down-regulation of ORC1 mRNA and protein expression was observed in rat VSMCs at 24 h after transfection with the three pairs of siRNA targeting ORC1 gene and this reduction persisted at least 7 days post-transfection. Down-regulation of ORC1 mRNA (60%) and protein (80%) expression was observed at 72 h post-transfection in the cells transfected with B-ORC1 siRNA. A significant decrease in 3H thymidine incorporation was observed in rat VSMCs with ORC1 gene silencing after serum challenge, but not in the non-silenced control. A significant increase in the proliferation index and a significant decrease in the percentage of cells at G0/G1 phase after serum challenge were observed in the non-silenced control, but not in ORC1 gene silenced cells. A significant increase in the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax was observed after serum challenge in the non-silenced control, but only a slight increase was found in the ORC1 gene silenced cells. ORC1 gene silencing disappeared 7 days after transfection. Continuous serum challenge stimulated VSMCs to synchronously reenter the cell cycle as evidenced by increases in [3H] thymidine incorporation, the proliferation index, and the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax, as non-silenced cells were induced to resume cell cycle progression by the addition of 15% fetal bovine serum to the culture medium.Conclusion
ORC1 gene silencing causes rat VSMCs to enter a reversible G0 quiescent, growth arrested state; thus, ORC1 gene may be an important new target for suppressing VSMCs proliferation. 相似文献11.
