Cerebral palsy (CP) describes a group of disorders of the development of movement and posture,causing activity limitation attributed to disturbances,which occurred in the fetal or infant brain.Early identification and intervention of CP has always been a difficult topic in the research of neuroscience.The intervention should be focused on infants showing early signs of CP.Such signs may be efficiently detected by a combination of neuroimaging and the General Movements Assessment.Besides movements,enriched environments,active participation,parental coaching have benefits to early intervention.In this investigation,the early identification and intervention in cerebral palsy were focused.

Objective To investigate the expression of MIF in PBMC, sera and lacrimal fluid samples in patients with AD, and study the diagnostic significance of MIF in AD. Methods Forty-three AD patients (11 mild AD patients,23 moderate AD patients, 9 severe AD patients classfied by SCORAD index)and 31 age- and sex-matched healthy control subjects were recruited. Real-time RT-PCR was employed to analyze the expression of MIF mRNA in PBMC. ELISA was performed to detect the concentrations of MIF in sera and lacrimal fluid samples. Results AD patients had significantly higher levels of MIF mRNA in PBMC than normal controls [7.46 (3.38-8.90) vs 1.67 ( 1.24-2.45 ), Z=-6.141, P ＜ 0.05]. The concentrations of MIF in sera and lacrimal fluid samples in AD patients were also markedly higher than those of normal controls [serum 36. 32( 11.89-43.80) μg/L vs 7.89(6.13-9.54) μg/L, Z = -6.180,P <0.05; lacrimal fluid 12.66(2.01-20.12) μg/L vs 0.85(0.77-1.06) μg/L, Z = -4.118,P <0.05]. MIF mRNA levels were 2.35 ( 2.12-2.49 ) , 7.83 ( 6. 54-8.90 ) and 8.76 ( 8.22-9.73 ) in mild, moderate and severe AD respectively, and the expression was higher in moderate and severe AD than in normal controls (Z= -6.237, -4.520,P ＜0.05). MIF serum concentrations were 8.98(7.90-10.51) μg/L, 36.50 (29.78-43.23) μg/L and 45.70(41.27-48. 84) μg/L in mild, moderate and severe AD respectively, and the differences were significant in moderate and severe AD compared to normal controls ( Z = - 6.238,- 4.521, P < 0.05 ). The lacrimal fluid MIF oncentrations were 1.10 ( 0.83-1.35 ) μg/L, 12.66 ( 9.76-15.87) μg/L and 24. 65 ( 19.29-30.94) μg/L in mild, moderate and severe AD respectively. Similarly,they increased significantly in moderate and severe AD compared to normal controls (Z = -4.062,- 3.372, P ＜ 0.05 ). In moderate and severe AD, MIF mRNA levels in PBMCs and MIF concentrations in sera and lacrimal fluid samples were all positively correlated with the severity of AD ( r = 0.395, 0.404,0.515, P < 0.05 ). Conclusions The expression of MIF in PBMCs, sera and lacrimal fluid samples is higher in different course of AD. MIF can serve as a useful laboratory parameter for evaluation of AD activity and severity.

Objective To study the effects of glycosaminoglycan extracted from Pinctada martensii on the proliferation, differentiation and mineralization of newborn rat calvarium osteoblast in vitro. Methods MTT, PNPP and ARS methods were used to measure the cell proliferation, activity of ALP and the function of mineral nodes formation of osteoblasts cultured in vitro. Results Glycosaminoglycan at concentration of 0.008～0.5g?L -1 inhibited mildly the proliferation of osteoblast cells, however, this range of concentrations of glycosaminoglycan markedly increased the ALP activity and stimulated mineral node bone formation in osteoblast. Conclusion Glycosaminoglycan extracted from the Pinctada martensii showed stimulating effects on the differentiation and mineralization of newborn rat calvarium osteoblast in vitro, but the stimulating effect on cells proliferation was not observed.

Objective To explore the inhibition effect on angiogenesis and plaque growth of carotid atherosclerosis by transfection of endostatin gene using microbubbles combined with ultrasound exposure.Methods Twenty rabbit models of carotid atherosclerosis were randomly divided into 3 groups:group A,microbubble+ ultrasound; group B, control plasmid + microbubble + ultrsound; group C, ES plasmid +microbubble+ ultrasound. Two weeks after surgery, ultrasound/microbubble mediated gene transfer was performed,and it was performed once again three weeks after the first transfection. Ultrasonography and digital subtraction angiography(DSA) were performed at the time of 14 weeks. The carotid arteries were taken to detect the neointima and angiogenesis, and the expression of endostatin was detected using pathological means. Results The imagings of ultrasound showed that the intima in group A and B were thick significantly with larger plaques, and the lumen became stenosis with the peak systolic velocity increasing,however,in group C,the parameters mentioned above were significantly less than those of group A and B ( P＜0.05). Pathological results displayed that intima-media thickness (IMT), intima thickness (IT), intima thickness/media thickness (IT/MT), intima area (IA), intima area/media area (IA/MA) and neointimal stenosis rates were greater in group A and B, however, they were less in group C ( P＜0.05).The number of neovascularization and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) expression in group A and B were more than those of group C. There was more endostatin positive expression in carotid arteries and anterior tibial muscles of group C, while there was nearly no expression in group A and B. Conclusions Under the conditioned ultrasonic irradiation, ultrasound/microbubble mediated endostatin gene transfection can inhibit the development of carotid atherosclerosis in rabbits, which might provide a safe and effective strategy for gene therapy of atherosclerotic disease in future.

Accurate determination of biological activity is essential in quality control of recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (rhBNP). In previous study, we successfully developed a genetically modified cell line 293GCAC3-based ELISA assay for rhBNP. But ELISA procedure is still tedious, so this study was aimed to develop a rapid and simple bioassay for rhBNP using GloSensor technology, which provides a platform of flexible luciferase-based biosensors for real-time detection of signaling events in live cells, including cGMP production. A reporter cell line 293GCAGlo-G1 was constructed by transfecting pGloSensor?40 F plasmid into 293GCAC3. The reporter assay based on 293GCAGlo-G1 showed high precision with intra-assay CV being 8.3% and inter-assay CV being 14.1%; high accuracy with 80%, 100% and 120% recovery rate being 99.2%, 102.4% and 99.0% respectively; and great linearity with R2of linear fitting equation being 0.99. Besides, no significant difference was found in test results of reporter assay and 293GCAC3-based ELISA assay (paired t test, p＝0.630). All these results suggested that the reporter assay was a viable assay for biological determination of rhBNP.

BACKGROUND: Acute myocardial ischemia can activate the c-Jun N-terminal protein kinase(JNK) and, in turn, the ischemia damage can be aggravated by JNK. While in chronic hibernating myocardium, whether chronic myocardial ischemia can activate JNK1/2 or not and what is the role of JNK1/2 in developing the chronic hibernating myocardium, is not clear.OBJECTIVE :To identify protein expression of JNK1/2 and the p-JNK1/2 changes in chronic hibernating myocardium.DESIGN: Randomly controlled experimental research.SETTING: This study was performed in Cardiovascular Disease Institute, the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical College.MATERIALS: Animal models were prepared in the Catheter Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical College, protein expression of JNK1/2 and the phosphorylation(p-JNK1/2) changes were measured in the Department of Biochemistry of Xuzhou Medical College. Fourteen small Chinese domestic pigs were randomly divided into two groups, experiment group( n = 8) and control group( n = 6) . Right coronary artery was selected as target vessel in experiment group, and home-made constrictor was delivered through right femoral artery to induce chronic hibernating myocardium and myocardial infarction.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Normal myocardial tissue in control group, normal myocardial tissue and chronic hibernating myocardium sample in experiment group were checked with light microscope and electron microscope,protein expression of JNK1/2 and the phosphorylation changes in myocardium tissue of three groups were analyzed by immunoblotting (Western blotting).RESULTS: p-JNK1/2 was higher in chronic hibernating myocardium of experiment group than that of normal myocardium in experiment and control group. Immunological activity of p-JNK1/2 in control group, normal myocardium, and chronic hibernating myocardium in experiment group was 1,1.42 ± 0.52, 2.6 ± 0.59, respectively.CONCLUSION: JNK1/2 can be activated in chronic hibernating myocardium tissue and also participated in its occurrence and development.

The study aims to characterize and compare interferon reference standards from 5 manufacturers. By testing molecular mass and trypsin-digested peptide mass mapping, the amino acid sequence was verified and post-translational modifications such as disulfide bond were identified. Results show that the molecular mass and amino acid sequence were consistent with theory; the disulfide bonds of 4 lots of interferon were Cys1-Cys98/Cys29-Cys138, 1 lot was Cys29-Cys139/Cys86-Cys99; N-terminal "+Met", acetyl N-terminal and Met oxidation were identified in part of the sample. UPLC-MS can be used to characterize and compare interferon reference standards from different manufacturers.
