A novel strategy employing dendrimer to multi-label the template molecule to improve the sensitivity of molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor was proposed. The determination relies on a competition reaction between poly ( diethylene-triaminepenta-acetic acid )-glycol ester ( PDTPA )-ferrocene-carboxylic acid ( FcA ) labeled gibberellins acid 3 ( GA3 ) and GA3 in the sample. Since one cavity corresponds with multiple FcA, instead of only one FcA, the intensity of the detecting signal was greatly enhanced, so was the sensitivity of the sensor. Experimental results showed that the molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor was sensitive to GA3 detection at a concentration from 2. 0í10-9 to 1. 0í10-7 mol/L, with a detection limit of 9. 3í10-10 mol/L. In addition, the sensor had good reproducibility and its feasibility was verified in the analysis of series of real beer samples.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) act by binding to complementary sites on target messenger RNA (mRNA) to induce mRNA degradation and/or translational repression. To investigate the influence of miRNAs at transcript levels, two human miRNAs (miR-1 and miR-124) were transfected into HeLa cells and microarrays used to examine changes in the mRNA profile showed that many genes were downregulated and that the fold decreases in levels of these target mRNAs differed remarkably. Features depicting interactions between miRNAs and their respective target mRNAs, such as the number of putative binding sites, the strength of complementary matches and the degree of stabilization of the binding duplex, were extracted and analyzed. It was found that, for a given target mRNA, both the quality and quantity of miRNA binding sites significantly affected its degree of destabilization. To delineate these types of interactions, a simple statistical model was proposed, which considers the combined effects of both the quality and quantity of miRNA binding sites on the degradation levels of target mRNAs. The analysis provides insights into how any animal miRNA might interact with its target mRNA. It will help us in designing more accurate methods for predicting miRNA targets and should improve understanding of the origins of miRNAs.

[Objective]To compare the treatment effects between posterior single segment fusion or non-fusion in lumbar spinal disease,and to evaluate their influence on adjacent segments.[Method]Thirty-two cases of degenerative lumbar spinal disorders were treated with Coflex(group non-fusion) and PLIF(group fusion),and followed up for over 2 years.The clinical effect was evaluated by visual analogue scale(VAS) and Oswestry disability index(ODI).Range of motion(ROM) of lumbar segments was measured by X-ray film.[Result]In group non-fusion,VAS decreased from 7.8?1.2 pre-operatively to 2.1?0.6 at final follow-up,ODI from 30.8?3.2 to 4.6?1.2,ROM improved significantly.In group fusion,VAS decreased from 7.2?1.1 to 2.0?0.6,ODI from 29.9?3.0 to 4.5?0.9,and ROM of L3、4 improved significantly.No significant difference of clinical effect was found between 2 groups.[Conclusion]Both fusion and non-fusion fixation have satisfying effects in treatment of degenerative lumbar spinal disorder.Non-fusion fixation has less influence on ROM of lumbar segments and could reduce adjacent segment degeneration.

AIM: To investigate the effects of Shuguan Capsule on myocardial blood flow (MBF) and myocardial oxygen consumption (MOC) in anesthetized dogs. METHODS: Coronary blood flow (CBF) of twenty-five thoracotomized dogs was detected by electromagnetic flow meter and the MBF was calculated. While the oxygen content in the artery (AO2 ) and in the coronary venous sinus (VO2) was determined with blood oxygen analysis.Moreover, the other cardiac hemodynamic parameters, such as heart rate (HR), femoral arterial blood pressure (BP), were observed by physiological polygraph. RESULTS: It was found that Shuguan Capsule (48.5 mg/kg and 194 mg/kg) could significantly increase the MBF, and then decease the coronary artery resistance. Furthermore, Shuguan Capsule could also lower the AO2, but increase the VO2, which led to the decreased MOC. CONCLUSION: Shuguan Capsule exhibits the effects to keep the balance between blood supply and oxygen consumption in the heart by modulating the coronary resistance and by reducing MOC in dogs.

The in vitro construction and in vivo reconstruction of menisci are closely related with the effect of growth factors. OBJECTIVE:To review the current development of growth factors in meniscus tissue engineering, and to investigate the mechanism. METHODS:The VIP database (http://lib.cqvip.com), CNKI database (www.cnki.net) and PubMed database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed) were retrieved for the related articles from January 2008 to March 2013 with the key words of“meniscus tissue engineering, cartilage, growth factors”. A total of 53 articles on the research of growth factors in meniscus tissue engineering were included. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There were various growth factors in cartilage tissue engineering research, and the new growth factors have been found in the constant. The research on the regulation effect of growth factors on cartilage was changed from the research of single growth factor model to the research of the interactions between multiple growth factors;the molecular mechanisms of growth factors in regulating the cartilage have also been extensively studied. Growth factors have good application prospects in tissue engineering, but there are stil many problems to be solved, such as during the healing of menisci, the expressions and the effect of different growth factors are different in different time points. So how to play the interaction between growth factors timely and appropriately thus stimulating the in vivo microenvironment, investigating the molecular mechanisms of growth factors in regulating the cartilage, as wel as finding the new growth factors are the research focus in meniscus tissue engineering.

Objective To investigate the effect of pelvic autonomic nerve preservation (PANP) for urinary function and sexual dysfunction after total mesorectal excision (TME) of rectal cancer in male patients. Methods A total of 147 patients, hospitalized from March 2009 to March 2010,were enrolled into this study and received TME plus PANP combination treatment. The clinical data of these cases were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were no operative deaths. The 0. 5 - 1.0 years follow-up data showed that 9 cases (6. 12% ) had voiding dysfunction, 11 cases (7.48%) had sexual dysfunction, 12 cases ( 8.16% ) had local recurrence. Conclusion TME plus PANP combination treatment can improve the urinary and sexual function,without increasing the postoperative local recurrence rate.

BACKGROUND:Because the content of oral and maxil ofacial anatomy is various and complex, only the traditional way of multimedia cannot display the anatomical structures from multi-angle and al-round.

Al the images obtained were treated using Photoshop CS5 for dressing and compression. The image data were input into The VR Worx system, fol owed by parameters and hotspots setting and the compression. Final y, the three-dimensional digital models were reconstructed and output with QuickTime VR format into disk. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Three-dimensional digital models of tooth and skul were constructed with photography and the VR Worx 2.6 software, which could faithful y reproduce the anatomical characteristics of teeth, dentition and skul s, and facilitate researchers to rotate and scale for observation. Also, it was easy for hotspot-marking. On the platform of digital photography and The VR Worx software, it is feasible to establish the three-dimensional digital model of tooth and skul . This approach is the entity reconstruction, and the reconstructed model appears clear, vivid, and is easy to be saved and promoted.
