Objective To observe the effect of Zhipu Hollow Suppository (ZHS) on postoperative ankylenteron in rats,and to investigate the possible mechanism.Methods Forty Wistar rats were randomly divided into model group,ZPS group,positive control group,and blank control group,10 rats in each group.Rats were given corresponding drugs according to the experimental design after modeling.Rats were executed after medication for one week,and the pathologic changes of ileal serosa were observed under scanning electron microscope and the ultrastructure of ileal serosa cells was observed under transmission electron microscope.Results Results of the examination under scanning electron microscope showed that the arrangement of ileal-serosa mesothelial cells in ZHS group was regular,and the network structure arranged spindle-shaped with uniformity size and with the shape close to the normal ones.There was proliferation in mesothelial cells in the exposed base layer.Under the transmission electron microscope,mesothelial cells recovered well and the proliferation of fibroblasts was not obviously in ZHS group,but mesothelial cells disappeared and the secretion of collagen by fibroblasts was actively in the model group.Conclusion ZHS can prevent ankylenteron by promoting the ileal-serosa mesothelial cell proliferation,improving the ileal-serosa ultrastructure and protecting the ileal serosa.

The drugs promoting axon regeneration after spinal cord injury has been receiving high attention. Growth, extending and branching of neuron axon is a biological process mediated by cytoskeleton, and microtubule plays an important role on axon structure adjustment and growth. Taxol can reasonably stabilize microtubules, eliminate the obstacles of axon regeneration, and effect on axonal regeneration repair after spinal cord injury. Taxol is mainly used for anti-tumor therapy. This paper reviewed the researches on taxel and neuronal cytoskeletal microtubule.

Various functional proteins are differently expressed in each pathologic stage after spinal cord injury, representing injury and the pathological change of repair. Ideal biomarker is helpful to evaluate complicated biological reactions of spinal cord injury and predict prognosis. As specific serum markers of central nerve injury, neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and astrocyte primary calcium binding protein S-100β had been studied preliminarily, but the specificity and sensitivity need more research. Future efforts still need to develop ideal biomarkers to predict functional outcome.

Ohjective To observe the inhibition effect of total glucosides of Picrorhiza on hepatitis B virus covalently closed circular DNA (HBV cccDNA) in HepG 2.2.15 cell line. Methods HepG 2.2.15 cells were incubated with culture medium containing 50 mg/L of picrosides or 5 mg/L of adefovir dipivoxil for 2 or 5 days. HBV DNA in the supernatant, intracellular cccDNA, relaxed circular DNA (rcDNA) and pregenomic RNA (pgRNA) were quantified by specific real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and inhibition rates were calculated. The means were compared by t test. Results After treated with picrosides for 2 and 5 days, the inhibition rates of HBV DNA in thesupernatant were 49. 74% (t=4.723, P<0.05) and 79.48% (t = 7.512, P<0.05), respectively. The inhibition rates of intracellular cccDNA were 43.55% (t = 5.216, P<0.05) and 56.43% (t=7.262, P<0.05), respectively, while those of intracellular rcDNA were 43.39% (t=4.137, P<0.05) and 63.86% (t=7.861, P<0.05), respectively, and those of intracellular pgRNA were 54.72% (t=4.532, P<0.05) and 56.08% (t=4.833, P<0.05), respectively. Comparatively, after treatment with adefovir dipivoxil for 2 and 5 days, the inhibition rates of HBV DNA in the supernatant were 25.56% (t=2.874, P<0.05) and 92.44% (t =10.276, P<0.05), respectively. Those of cccDNA were 18.54% (t=2.736, P<0.05) and 47.19% (t=6.852, P<0.05), respectively. Those of rcDNA were 21. 20% (t=3.206, P<0.05) and 71.47% (t=8.332, P<0.05), respectively, pgRNA were 11.14% (t=1.761, P>0.05) and 37.61%(t=3.632, P<0.05) respectively in HepG2.2.15 cells. Conclusions Pierosides may inhibit the replication cycle of HBV, including the formation of cccDNA in HepG 2.2.15 cells. The mechanism of pierosides on cccDNA may differ from adefovir dipivoxil's due to its earlier inhibition time phase.

Objective To explore the feasibility and effectiveness of lateral gastrocnemius muscle branch nerve transferring for deep pe-roneal nerve injury. Methods Thirty-two adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into control group (n=8), sham group (n=8), nerve direct repairing group (n=8) and nerve transferring group (n=8). Twelve weeks after the anastomosis, the nerve anastomosis was observed vi-sually, the length of lateral of gastrocnemius muscle branch (L1), the diameter at the point of entering muscle (D1), the maximum detachable length of nervus peroneus communis (L2), the diameter of deep peroneal nerve (D2) and the distance between branch point and neck of fibu-la (S) were measured. The peroneal nerve functional index (PFI), the amplitude of compound muscle action potential (CMAP), nerve con-duction velocity (NCV), the weight of the tibialis anterior and the creatine kinase (CK) activity of theanterior tibial were compared among groups. Results L10.05). Conclusion It is feasible that lateral head muscular branches of gastrocnemius nerve transferring can repair deep peroneal nerve injury, which is needed to separate superficial peroneal nerve and deep peroneal nerve in the epineurium without damaging nerve for tension free neuroanastomosis. Lateral head muscular branches of gastrocnemius nerve transferring can repair the func-tion after deep peroneal nerve injury.

MicroRNAs are short non-coding RNAs that regulate and control the translation of target genes, and play an important role in gene expression involved in the development of spinal cord and spinal cord injury, which constitute novel targets for therapeutic intervention to promote repair and regeneration of the spinal cord, also they are the potential biomarkers of spinal cord injury. This article reviewed the mechanism of microRNAs and listed several microRNAs in spinal cord injury area.
