The impact of acupuncture for the pregnancy of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) is discussed in the paper. Nowadays there are various conclusions about the impact of acupuncture for IVF-ET, and it may result from the differences in research designs. The effect is closely related to the demographic and clinical characteristics of subjects, such as age, the diagnosis of barrenness, blood flow index of uterine spiral arteries, the cycle of IVF, etc. Besides, the efficacy is influenced by treatment based on syndrome differentiation or not, the frequency and course of acupuncture in both the treating group and the control group, etc. If more reasonable design is achieved in the further study based on them, more reliable evidence will be provided for the effect and mechanism of the pregnancy of IVF-EF by acupuncture.

ObjectiveTo investigate the method of establishing damaged endometrial stromal cells (ESC) model in vitro.Methods ( 1 ) From June to December 2011 ESC from normal endometrim at proliferation phase ( n =8 ) and secretory phase ( n =8 ) were isolated,cultured and identified in vitro.( 2 ) ESC was treated with different concentrations of mifepristone or withdrawal of mifepristone at different time point.The proliferation inhibition percent was measured by cell counting kit-8 ( CCK-8 ). ( 3 ) 0 μmol/L (control group)and 60 μmol/L(experimental group) concentration of mifepristone was added into ESC for 48 hours,then withdrew of mifepristone,continued to be cultured for 48 hours.The morphological changes were observed and apoptosis of ESC in different menstrual cycle were detected by flow cytometry.The mRNA and protein level of vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF),caspase-3,8,and 9 were determined by one-step quantitative real-time PCR (Q-PCR) and western blot.Results( 1 ) ESC from 16 specimens of endometrium were all isolated and cultured successfully. (2) The proliferation inhibition rate of ESC was correlated with concentration and duration of mifepristone positively. The proliferation of ESC could be recovered at a range of time after withdrawal of mifepristone.However,when the concentration of mifepristone was 100 μmol/L,the growth of ESC recovered very hardly. (3) The damaged ESC spacing increased,the spindle shape and vacuolization in the cytoplasm were observed in experimental group; the rate of apoptosis of these damaged cells was significantly increased compared with control groups,which were (52 ± 12)% vs.( 13 ± 5 ) % at the proliferative phase and (53 ± 6) % vs.( 32 ± 3 ) % at the secretory phase ( all P <0.05).The relative mRNA level of VEGF was 0.52± 0.12 in experimental group and 1.00 ± 0.17 in control group at proliferation phase (P <0.05).And the relative mRNA level of VEGF was 0.19 ±0.03 in experimental group and 0.81 ±0.07 in control group at secretory phase (P < 0.05).The relative level of VEGF protein in the experimental group were both decreased 1.98 and 2.79 folds at the proliferation phase and the secretory phase when compared with those in control group,respectively ( P < 0.05 ).While the relative levels of caspase-3,8,9 mRNA were 5.62 ± 0.65,5.41 ± 0.53,7.22 ± 0.51 in the experimental group and 1.00 ± 0.44,1.00 ± 0.21,1.00 ± 0.32 in control group at the proliferative phase.In the mean time,the relative levels of caspase-3,8,9 mRNA were 10.22 ± 0.72,25.3 ± 1.72,9.48 ± 1.89 in experimental group and 1.42 ± 0.14,1.14 ± 0.28,1.16 ± 0.12 in control group at the secretory phase,respectively (P < 0.05).Compared with the control group,the levels of caspase protein in the experimental group were increased 2.04 and 1.60 folds in caspase-3,4.23 and 1.49 folds in caspase-8,2.65 and 3.5 folds in caspase-9 at the proliferative phase and at the secretory phase,respectively (P < 0.05 ).ConclusionThe damaged model of ESC can be established after 48 hours by the withdrawal of 60 μmol/L mifepristone in treatment of ESC for 48 hours.

Objective To investigate the effects of MG132 on diabetic nephropathy (DN) rats induced with streptozocin. Methods Seventy-two male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: normal control group (NC, n=24), DN group (n=24) and DN treated with MG132 group (DN+MG132, n=24). At the end of 4, 8 and 12 weeks, 24 hour urinary protein excretion rate (UPER) was detected. Morphology of kidney was examined by special staining of periodic acid-schiff (PAS). Renal 26S proteasome activity was determined by quantifying the hydrolysis of S-LLVY-AMC in a fluorescence reader. Urinary malondialdehyde (MDA) level and renal SOD and GSH-PX activity were detected by commercial kits. Renal SOD, GSH-PX and p47phox mRNA expressions were determined by real-time fluorescence PCR. Renal p47phox protein expression wasdetermined by Western blotting. Results Compared with NC group, the DN group showed a significant increased of UPER at week 4, 8, 12 (all P<0.05), of mesangium proliferation and mesangial matrix expansion at week 12. In DN+MG132 group, UPER was significantly decreased compared with DN group at the end of 4, 8 and 12 weeks (P<0.05, respectively), and the glomeruler pathological alteration induced by diabetes was attenuated. Increased renal 26S proteasome activity in DN rats was significantly inhibited after MC132 administration (P<0.05). Moreover, renal p47phox mRNA expression in DN group was 155%, 149% and 120% more than those in NC group at 3 time points (all P<0.05), and so was the renal p47phox protein expression, 139%, 152% and 186% more (all P<0.05). Urinary MDA levels in DN group were 1.95-, 2.04-and 2.62-folds more than those in NC group (all P<0.05). In addition, compared with NC group at 3 time points, in DN group, renal SOD activity was decreased by 23.09%, 33.59% and 53.31% (all P<0.05); renal GSH-PX activity was decreased by 28.57%, 33.06% and 48.76% (all P< 0.05); renal SOD mRNA was decreased by 38.09%, 61.44% and 76.53% (all P<0.05); renal GSH-PX mRNA group was decreased by 29.16%, 37.26% and 62.40% (all P<0.05). Compared with DN group, renal p47phox mRNA and protein expression, and urinary MDA levels were significantly lower in DN+MG132 group (all P<0.05); renal SOD and GSH-PX activity as well as mRNA expression were significantly increased in DN+MG132 group (all P<0.05). Conclusions MG132 treatment can provide renoprotection for DN rats effectively maybe through enhancing renal anti-oxidative ability.

Nineteen stocks of Trypanosoma cruzi originating from several endemic countries for Chagas‘ disease in Central and South America were subjected to two-dimensional protein electrophoresis analysis. The presence or absence of a total of492polypeptide spots among19gel profiles was determined. The stocks were classified into three major distinctive groups derived from (I) Central America and the northern part of South America; (IIa) Central America and the northern part of South America; and (IIb) central and southern parts of South America, which showed perfect concordance with the previously reported classification based on isozyme and DNA sequence analyses. Late log phase of each epimastigote was inoculated to human cell lines WI-38and Hs224.T originating from the lung and muscle, respectively, and the number of trypomastigotes released was counted. The number of trypomastigotes from T. cruzi in group I released from the two cell lines was significantly higher than that in group III (p&It;0.05). The findings suggested that the phenetic distance appearing within the T. cruzi may, to some extent, be associated with the intracellular growth of T. cruzi, one of the characteristic features of growth found in the species.
