Alzheimer′s disease ( AD) , is a neurodegenerative disorder of the brain that is characterized by loss of memory and cognitive decline.At present, AD etiology remains unclear and there are no effective prevention and treatment measures in clinical practice.Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorγ( PPARγ) is a ligand-regulated nuclear hormone receptor.Recent studies showed PPARγ-pathway played an important role in the pathogenesis of AD and some PPARγagonists have been proven to be neuroprotective in vitro and in vivo models.This paper reviews the roles of PPARγand related mechanisms in AD, summarizes affecting factors about PPARγpathway.Particularly, the effect of cyanidin-3-O-glucoside ( Cy3G) , one of the anthocyanidin glycoside forms, is a compound of naturally occurring phenolic compounds, suggesting the neuroprotective effect of Cy3G might be used as a potential natural PPARγagonist in the nervous system.

The paper analyzes the problems existing in the supervision and administration of medical sciences and points out the countermeasures,hoping that it will make medical device safe and effective in order to guarantee health and safety.

Objective To study the regulating roles of PAI 2 in the differentiation mechanism of the human epidermis. Methods Human skins were take from the early, middle and late human embryos respectively and observed with immunocytochemistry and in situ hybridization techniques. The cell culture and dot blot were also used in the observation of the materials from late embryo. Results 1 PAI 2 exhibits a very high experssion in the development of embryonic period, with the highest level in the middle embryonic phase while the transcripts of PAI 2 still keep a rather high level in the late human embryonic stage. 2 PAI 2 is mainly localized in the superficial, more differentiatied layers of the epidermis.3 PAI 2 is localizated in peripheral cytoplasm of the vitro or vivo keratinocyte.Conclusion PAI 2 is involved in the regulation of the keratinocyte differentiation.

Objective To explore the effect of Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigen (Mtb-Ag) on neutrophils apoptosis.Methods The fresh isolated neutrophils from healthy adults blood were cultured with Mtb-Ag for 24 h,with or without pretreatment of nuclear factor -?B (NF-?B) inhibitor N-tosyl-L-phenylanyl chloromethyl ketone (TPCK) for 30 minutes.Annexin V staining and Flow cytometry were used to measure cell apoptosis of neutrophils.NF-?B DNA binding was measured by gelelectrophorestic mobility shift assay (EMSA) in neutrophils after incubated with Mtb-Ag for 0,1,2,4,6,24 hours.Results Comparing to the spontaneous apoptosis (55%?6%) of neutrophils after culture in vitro for 24 h,treatment of Mtb-Ag (1.125 mg/ml) decreased the cell apoptosis of neutrophils (32%?3%).The NF-?B shift bands were detected at 1 h in neutrophils after stimulated by Mtb-Ag,and reached maximum peak at 2 hours,and then returned to basal levels within 24 h.Pretreatment of TPCK inhibited the anti-apoptosis role of Mtb-Ag in neutrophils.Conclusion Mtb-Ag prevents neutrophils apoptosis and its inhibitory role concerns NF-?B pathway.

BACKGROUND: Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) is not applicable for clinical fast detection or the detection analysis of multiple genes on a large sample basis for candidate genes of mental diseases, while polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primer (PCR-SSP) method can make up for these deficiencies.OBJECTIVE: To establish a PCR-SSP method with multiple gene polymorphism, and popularize its application in the molecular study of mental diseases.DESIGN: Observational trial.SETTING: Department of Molecular Biology and Department of Pathophysiology at Xinxiang Medical College.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in the Department of Molecular Biology at Xinxiang Medical College from December 2005 to October 2006. A total of 200 blood samples from patients with mental disease were provided by the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical College, 0.5 mL each sample. All the patients were informed and agreed with the experiment.METHODS: PCR-SSP was used to analyze the polymorphism of the following genes: variation of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-308A/G and -238G/A, variation of interleukin (IL)-6-174G/C, variation of the 188th base pair (C/T) of CYP2D6 *10B exon, variation of the 472nd base pair (G/A) of COMT gene, and variation of the 941st base pair (G/T) of the CDNA sequence of the 8th exon of MAOA gene.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Gene polymorphism of blood samples analyzed with PCR-SSP.RESULTS: The detected genotypes for TNF-α-308NG included G/G and A/G; the detected genotypes for TNF-α-238G/A included G/A, G/G and A/A; the detected genotypes for IL-6-174G/C were all G/G homozygotes; the detected genotypes for the 188th base pair (C/T) of CYP2D6*10B exon included C/C, C/T and T/T; the detected genotypes for the 472nd base pair (G/A) of COMT included A/G, A/A and G/G; the detected genotypes for the 941st base pair (G/T) of CDNA sequence of the 8th exon of MAOA included T/G, T/T and G/G.CONCLUSION: PCR-SSP is suitable for the polymorphism analysis of the mononucleotide site variation of multiple genes on a large sample basis, which is fast and accurate with low cost and is worthy to be popularized in the molecular study on mental diseases.

Objective To explore the effect of Ferroprotin 1 expression on tumorigenesis,invasiveness and survival of breast cancer.Methods In this study,100 breast cancer patients were enrolled.IHC SP was used to detect the expression of Ferroprotinl in paraffin-embedded tissues.The `association of Ferroprotin 1 expression and clinico-pathological parameters was evaluated by chi-square test.Survival analysis was calculated by Kaplan-Meier model and Log-rank test.Results The expression of Ferroprotin 1 was significantly higher in para-cancerous normal tissues (37/100,37％ ) than that in breast cancer tissues (24/100,24％ ;P =0.046 ).In these with positive axillary LN,there were more with low expression level of Ferroprotin 1 ( 36/40,90％ ) than those with high expression level ( 4/40,10％ ),P =0.007.More patients with low Ferroprotin1 were at advanced stage than those with high ferroprotin1 [Ⅲ 44/57 (77.2％) ;Ⅳ 17/18 ( 94.4％ )]( P =0.05 ).No significant association was found between ferroprotin1 and tumor grade,histology type,ER/PR,HER2,tumor size (P＞0.05).Ferroprotin1 has no significant effect on breast cancer survival ( P =0.591 ) by Kaplan-Meier curve and Log-rank test.Conclusions Low Ferroprotin 1 may lead to the tumorigenesis of breast cancer.Downregulated Ferroprotin1 promotes the LN involvement of breast cancer and accompanies with more advanced disease.However Ferroprotinl might not play an important role in the survival of breast cancer.

Plastic and Aesthetic surgery is a science which creates beauty by combining know-ledge and art. Combined with the professional characteristics of plastic surgery, we reformed the cur-riculum content and teaching mode of continuous education, including a established interactive theoret-ical learning model based on Journal club, the strengthening of clinical practice integrated with multiple related disciplines, the expanding the knowledge of Sociology, Psychology and Ethics, and the construc-tion of a long-term platform of network resources. Therefore, a comprehensive and specialized continu-ous education model in the department of plastic and aesthetic surgery was ultimately formed, whose preliminary assessment was favorable, and could be helpful in the cultivation of high-quality plastic and aesthetic surgeons in the future.
