Objective To observe the effect of scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) measuring macular light sensibility on evaluating the visual function in idiopathic epiretinal membrane (IERM), and analyze the relationship among the macular light sensibility, central visual acuity, and the thickness of fovea. Methods Procedure of microperimetry of SLO was performed on 44 patients (55 eyes) with IERM diagnosed by indirect and direct ophthalmoscope and optical coherence tomography (OCT). The light sensibility at 10? macular central area was measured. The results were compared with 31 healthy control eyes which underwent the same examinations simutaneously. The correlation among the macular light sensibility, the thickness of fovea measured by OCT, and the results of logarithm visual acuity was anaylzed. Results Compared with the control eyes, macular light sensibility decreased in IERM eyes significantly (F=47.265,P

[Objective] To investigate the effects of platycodin D(PD) on the proliferation and apoptosis of human stomach cancer SGC7901 and the related mechanism.[Methods] SGC7901 was cultured in virto and was treated with 5～20μm·L-1 concentrations of PD.Cell proliferation was examined by MTT assay.Cell apoptosis was detected by Annexin V FITC/PI double staining.The change of mitochondrial trans-membrane potential was measured by JC-1 staining.The potein expression of cleaved caspase-3,cleaved caspase-9,cleaved PARP,bcl-2,bax,p-ERK,ERK,p-JNK,JNK,p-p38 and p38 detected by Western blot.[Results] MTT results showed that PD inhibited the growth of SGC7901 cells in a dose-dependent manner at 24h and 48h.SGC7901 cells treated with PD for 24h showed significantly enhanced apoptosis and weakened mitochondrial membrane potential compared with the control cells.Western blot results showed that PD could up-regulate expression of cleaved PARP,cleaved caspase-3,cleaved caspase-9,bax,p-JNK,p-p38 protein,decreased bcl-2,p-ERK protein,the expression of ERK,JNK,p38 protein did not change significantly.[Conclusion] PD may inhibit the proliferation and induce the apoptosis of SGC7901 cells.These findings indicated that PD inhibited cell proliferation by inhibiting the ERK signaling.PD effect on bax and bcl-2 by activation of JNK and p38 signaling pathway resulted in the decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential and activation of caspase,which induced the apoptosis of cancer cells.

Horizontal impacted lower third molars are often adjacent to the inferior alveolar nerve,direct extraction may cause trauma and complications,the most serious complication is inferior alveolar nerve damage.This article reports one case of horizontal impacted lower third molar adjacent to the mandibular nerve canal,the molar was extracted by minimal anchorage pulling for 1 week and then removed smoothly.

Aim To study the pharmacokinetics and bioequivalence of nimesulide dispersible tablet and its normal tablet. Methods 20 healthy volunteers were treated with a single oral dose of domestic nimesulide dispersible tablet or normal tablet (control) in a randomized crossover study and the plasma drug concentration was determined by HPLC. Results The plasma concentration time curve was fitted to the one compartment model. The pharmacokinetic parameters obtained were: c max ( 3.91 ? 0.74) ?g ?ml -1 , t (1/2)? ( 3.40 ? 0.78) h , t max ( 3.15 ? 0.67) h , AUC 0～24 ( 31.92 ? 6.36) ?g ?ml?h -1 , there was no significant difference between the active and control groups. The relative bioavailability obtained was ( 96.43 ? 8.41 ) %. Conclusion The pharmacokinetic profile for the 2 tablets was similar so it may be concluded that they are bioequivalent.

AIM To investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of glucosides of Chaenomeles speciosa (GCS) on adjuvant arthritis (AA) in rats. METHODS Complete Freund's adjuvant was used to induce AA in rats. Secondary paw swelling of AA rats was measured with volume meter. Pain response and polyarthritis index were scored. Meanwhile, ConA induced thymocyte proliferation and LPS induced splenocyte proliferation were assayed by 3 (4,5 dimethylthiazol 2 thiazolyl) 2,5 diphenyl 2H tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. IL 1 production was measured by thymocyte proliferation assay; TNF ? and PGE 2 production were determined by radio immunoassay. RESULTS GCS (30, 60, 120 mg?kg -1 ) and Actarit (60 mg?kg -1 ) were given by intragastric administration for 8 days from the 17th day after immunization. Treatment with GCS (60, 120 mg?kg -1 ) and Actarit (60 mg?kg -1 ) for 5 days significantly diminished the secondary hind paw swelling, as well as relieved the pain response and the polyarthritic symptoms of the whole body as compared with AA model group. GCS (120 mg?kg -1 ) and Actarit (60 mg?kg -1 ) restored the diminished thymocytes proliferation ConA induced in AA rats. GCS reduced the enhanced productions of IL 1,TNF ? and PGE 2 from peritoneal macrophages in AA rats. CONCLUSION GCS has therapeutic effect on AA in rats, which may be related to regulation function of thymocyte T cells and inhibiting the productions of proimflammatory cytokines secreted by peritoneal macrophages.

Objective To clone and sequence cDNA encoding 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase(HMGR) from Atractylodes lancea.Methods The cDNA,encoding HMGR in A.lancea,was amplified by RACE strategy with the cDNA of the total RNA of young leaves as the template.The partial fragments of HMGR were cloned and sequenced.Results The analysis results revealed that the conserved fragments were 458 bp.At the same time,the two fragments had been obtained 84.28% identification in nucleotide acid and 92.11% identification in corresponding amino acid,named as HMGRcr1 and HMGRcr2,respectively.It was deduced that they may be members of the HMGR gene family in A.lancea.Sequencing analysis showed that HMGRcr1 and HMGRcr2 had high identity with HMGR from other plants.Conclusion The cDNA encoding HMGR from A.lancea is cloned and reported for the first time.The work will provided a foundation for exploring the mechanism of terpenes biosynthesis and application to the other medicinal plants.

Objective To investigate the progression of idiopathic epiretinal macular membrane(IEMM) and compare the correlation factors of contrast sensitivity function (CSF) such as visual acuity(VA) and central macular thickness. Design Prospective, case-controlled study. Participants 80 normal people (80 eyes) were divided into three groups: old-aged group (60-80 years old, of 26 eyes), middle-aged group (40-59 years old, of 30 eyes) and young-aged group (

OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical efficacy of nasal vestibule eczema by using beclomethasone dipropionate in combination with He-Ne laser therapy. METHOD: The 200 cases of nasal vestibule eczema patients were randomly divided into treatment and control groups. The control group received the rub beclomethasone dipropionate cream treatment one time per day. The treatment group supplemented with He-Ne laser irradiation treatment on the basis of the control group on the same treatment, alsoone time per day. Then the results were analyzed. RESULT: The total effective rate was 100.0% in treatment group, while 75.0% in the control group. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Beclomethasone dipropionate cream combined with He-Ne laser irradiation therapy on nasal vestibule eczema is significant, and easily to operate, with significant anti-inflammatory, anti-itch, analgesic effects.

Objective To explore the possible effects on differentiation of SHI-1 cells induced by puerariae radix flavones(PRF)in vitro.Methods SHI-1 cells were treated with PRF in various concertration,then the inhibitory effects of cell proliferation were detected by MTT assay,the cell cycles were analyzed by flow cytometry(FCM),the cells reduction rates were detected by NBT reduction test,and the expression of CD11b and CD14 were tested by FCM.Results 10-50 μg/ml PRF could inhibit the proliferation of SHI-1 cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner,and the cell cycles were arrested in S phase.When SHI-1 cells were treated with 10,30 and 50 μg/ml PRF in 48 houres respectively,the NBT reduction rates of cells were increased in a dose-dependent with PRF(P＜0.05),and the expression of cells surface differentiation antigen CD14 was also increased along with the concentration of PRF.Conclusion The SHI-1 cells could be induced to differentiation partially after treated with 10,30 and 50 μg/ml PRF in vitro.
