Objective To investigate the effects of C-terminal fragment of parathyroid hormonerelated protein (PTHrP107-139) on bone mineral density (BMD), bone histomorphometry and biomechanical properties in ovariectomized (OVX) rats and its effect on bone metabolism is also explored. Methods Forty 4-month old female Wistar rats in which 30 were ovariectomized and then divided into 3 groups: the placebo, the PTHrPC and the CT groups, the other 10 rats were Sham-operated as the control group (Sham). Five weeks later, the rats of PTHrPC and CT groups were subcutaneously injected with PTHrP107-139 (40 μg/kg) and Salmon Calcitonin (15 U/kg) respectively once every other day. The rats of the placebo and sham groups were injected with 0.2 ml saline once every other day. After treatment of 12 weeks, all rats were sacrificed and all samples were collected and analyzed. Results ① Compared with the placebo, the BMD and bone strength of PTHrPC and CT groups were significantly increased (P<0.05). ② Histomorphometry revealed that the tetracycline labeled bone surfaces, osteoid surfaces, mineral apposition rate and bone resorption rate were remarkably decreased in PTHrPC, and CT groups comparing with those of the placebo group. Conclusion Cter-minal PTHrP107-139 is effective in increasing the BMD, bone strength and quality when administered intermittently to ovariectomy-induced osteoporotic rats. Its increasing in bone quality may relate to reducing bone turnover and inhibiting resorption.

Objective: To explore the mechanisms of emodin in protecting intestinal mucosal barrier in rat with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods: Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham-operation group, untreated group, and emodin group. SAP in rats of the untreated group and the emodin group was induced by retrograde pumping of 3.0% sodium cholate to the common bile duct. Specimens were obtained 24 hours after the severe acute pancreatitis was induced. Serum level of leptin, serum activity of amylase and plasma content of endotoxin were measured. Ileum mucosa from ileocecal junction was observed by light microscopy and electron microscopy to measure pathological and ultrastructural changes. Apoptosis of ileum mucosal cells was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling method, and expression of Bax in ileum mucosal cells was measured by immunohistochemical method. Results: Compared with the sham-operation group, there was significant increase in the levels of leptin, endotoxin, the activity of amylase, apoptosis index and Bax expression in the untreated group (P<0.01). Compared with the untreated group, the level of endotoxin, apoptotic index and Bax expression level in the emodin group were significantly reduced (P<0.01) and the leptin level was increased (P<0.05). More severe pathological changes appeared in the untreated group than in the sham-operation group under the light and electron microscopes; meanwhile less severe damage was observed in the emodin group as compared with the untreated group. Conclusion: Emodin can inhibit the apoptosis of intestinal mucosa cells and up-regulate the serum leptin content to protect the intestina1 barrier function and prevent the translocation of bacteria and endotoxin.

Objective To investigate the role of Th17 cells in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) pathogenesis. Methods 33 CML patients [15 newly diagnosed (ND)- and 18 chronic-phase (CP)- CML patients] and 15 healthy controls were enrolled. The percentage of Th17 cells in the peripheral blood (PB) of CML and controls were evaluated by flow cytometry. RORC mRNA expressions were examined by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The levels of IL-17 in PB of CML and controls were measured by enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay (ELISA). The relationships between Th17 cells and clinical characteristics in CML were analyzed. Results The percentage of Th17 cells in PB of ND-CML patients [(0.71±0.41) %] was significantly lower than that of CP-CML patients [(4.08±0.74) %, P<0.05] and healthy controls [(3.18±1.32) %, P<0.05]. The mRNA level of RORC in PB of ND-CML patients (0.043 3±0.040 5) was significantly decreased compared with that in CP-CML patients (0.086 1±0.052 3, P<0.05) and healthy controls (0.091 0±0.058 4, P<0.05). The levels of IL-17 in PB of ND-CML patients [(1.43±0.22) pg/ml] and CP-CML patients [(1.36±0.19) pg/ml] were slightly higher than that of healthy controls [(1.23±0.14) pg/ml, P< 0.05]. The percentage of Th17 cells had significantly negative correlations with white blood cell counts in PB or bcr-abl (IS). Conclusion Th17 cells may play an important role in CML pathogenesis, which has potential implication for immunotherapy of this malignancy.

Objective:To compare the difference and correlation of HPLC and enzyme-multiplied immunoassay test( EMIT) for the determination of CsA in human whole blood. Methods:A total of 119 clinical samples at different concentrations of CsA were collected and respectively determined by HPLC and EMIT. The difference and correlation of the two determination methods were investigated. Results:There was significant difference in the blood concentrations of CsA determined by HPLC and EMIT(P<0. 05). CsA concen-tration determined by EMIT was 26. 2 ng·ml-1 higher than that determined by HPLC, and 95% CI was (14. 6-37. 7) ng·ml-1 . A satisfactory correlation was achieved between the two methods(r=0. 997 4). Conclusion:There is statistically significant difference in the CsA concentration in whole blood respectively determined by EMIT and HPLC. Attention should be paid to CsA monitoring by E-MIT and HPLC, and relevant adjustment should be carried out.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of human parathyroid hormone related protein (PTHrP1-34) on osteoporosis of ovariectomized osteoporotic rats. Methods Sixty 4-month-old female Wislar rats were involved in this study and 40 of them were ovariectomized and another 20 received sham operation. After 6 weeks of ovariectomy the osteoporosis model was confirmed by examing 10 ovariectomized and sham-operated rats. The 30 osteoporotic rats were randomly divided into 3 treatment groups, i.e. PTHrP, estradiol and placebo. Human 40 ?g/kg PTHrP1-34 was subcutaneously injected once daily to PTHrP group and the estradiol group was injected with 40 ?g/kg estradiol benzoate once every 3 days.The placebo and shamoperated rats were given 0.2 ml saline every 3 days. The bone mineral density (BMD), bone histomorphology, the bone weight of dry and ash and serum Ca,P,alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were measured after 3 months' therapy. Results After 6 weeks of ovariectomy, the lumbar BMD of ovariectomized rats were significantly declined compared with those of the sham-operated rats. After 12 weeks treatment the femoral and lumbar BMD and the rate of bone weight of dry and ash in the PTHrP group were increased obviously compared with those of placebo groups.There was no significant difference between PTHrP group and estradiol group, in PTHrP group the percent age of trabecular area,trabecular width,osteoblast surface and mineral apposition rate were obviously higher than those in placebo group.Conclusion Treatment with 40 ?g/kg dose of hPTHrP1-34 administered once daily is effective in treating ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the delivery gestational age, birth weight and fidgety movement. Methods 81 infants in fidgety movement phase were divided into preterm group and full-term group according to their delivery gestational age, into <2500 g group and ≥2500 g group according to their birth weight. The number of different kinds of General Movements (GMs) was compared.The correlation between birth weight, delivery of gestational age and GMs was analysed. Results The number of fidgety movement was more in the full-term group than in the preterm group (P=0.001), while the number of absence of fidgety movement was significantly less (P=0.003). The number of fidgety movement was more in the ≥2500 g group than in the <2500 g group (P=0.001), the number of absence of fidget movement was significantly less (P=0.003). The GMs was correlated with birth weight and delivery gestational age. Conclusion Premature and low birth weight are the risk factors for abnormal fidgety movement.
