Objective To review the treatment of repair gastroschisis with autogenous umbilical cord and evaluate its effect. Methods Thirty newborns who underwent the repair gastroschisis with autogenous umbilical cord between August 1992 to October 2007, 26 cases survived under observed and followed-up, observing physical growth, intelligence measuring and whether the area of operated in abdomen need staged repair or not. Compared with 15 cases who underwent traditional operation method at the same time. Results Two cases died, 2 cases abandoned, and 26 ease received survive (survive rate 86.7%)and their growth was well in 26 cases. But in those 15 cases who underwent traditional operation method, 5 cases survived (survive rate 33.3%). There were significant difference in the survive rate, the mean operative time and postoperative hospital stay time between the two operation methods (P <0.05).Conclusion The material is adopted easily in the operation, autogenous umbilical cord is elastic tissue and no toxicity, it can relax the abdominal press effectively after the operation, the survive rate is high.

Objective To detect different animal erythrocyte hemolysins titer,and compare the application of these hemolysins in immunological experimental teaching,for selecting the better method of preparing high titer hemolysin for experimental teaching of medical immunology.Methods A total of 40 experiment rabbits were divided into 4 groups in this study,and immunized by sheep red blood cell(SRBC) and porcine red blood cell(PRBC) through different immunization procedures to prepare the hemolysin,detect and compare these 4 groups hemolysins titer by the complement hemolysis test.Results Rabbit Anti-SRBC in the group A was 1∶4 800,rabbit Anti-PRBC in the group B was 1∶1 200,rabbit Anti-SRBC in the group C was 1∶1 000,rabbit Anti-PRBC in the group D was 1∶200.Conclusion The hemolysin titer of the rabbit Anti-PRBC was lower than that of the rabbit Anti-SRBC by the same immunization procedures,and the immunization procedure by intradermal multi-point and auricular vein injection is the better method of preparing high titer hemolysin,so PRBC could replace SRBC as antigen,and immunize the rabbits for preparing hemolysin,which could be used in experimental teaching of medical immunology.

【Objective】 To study the technology of separating and purifying C1 esterase inhibitor (C1-INH) by using the waste washing liquid as raw materia during the preparation of human prothrombin complex (PCC) l. 【Methods】 C1-INH was isolated and purified by a two-step method of polyethylene glycol (PEG) 4000 precipitation and cation chromatography. The pH of raw materials and the concentration of PEG4000 were adjusted to investigate the optimal conditions of PEG4000 precipitation method. After PEG was precipitated and centrifuged, the supernatant is treated as the loading solution for cation exchange chromatography, using Fractogel EMD SE HiCap(M) gel and CM Sepharose FF gel for ion exchange chromatography. The most suitable gel and separation conditions were selected by comparing the C1-INH antigen yield, activity yield and specific activity. 【Results】 Under the condition of pH 6.1, when the mass fraction of PEG4000 was 14%, the recovery rate of C1 esterase inhibitor was close to 70%, and the removal rate of ceruloplasmin was more than 95% after stirring for 10 minutes. As fractogel EMD SE HiCap(M) gel was used for cation exchange chromatography, when the eluent salt concentration was 0.25 M sodium chloride, the activity yield of C1 esterase inhibitor was greater than 80%, and the specific activity was greater than 5 IU/mg. 【Conclusions】 Using the waste washing liquid as the raw material during the preparation of PCC, the C1 esterase inhibitor with high specific activity can be prepared through PEG precipitation and purification by Fractogel EMD SE HiCap(M) ion exchange chromatography.

OBJECTIVE To study the effects of Dianxianqing granules on the tau protein in P301S mice by regulating mitophagy. METHODS Totally 36 P301S mice were randomly divided into model group, Dianxianqing granule group (12.48 g/kg), donepezil hydrochloride group (positive control, 1.3 mg/kg), with 12 mice in each group; another 10 C57BL6 mice were selected as control group. Administration groups were given relevant drug solutions intragastrically, and control group and model group were given constant volume of water intragastrically. The gavage volume was 20 mL/kg, once a day, for consecutive 5 months. During the experiment, the general condition of mice was observed in each group. After the last medication, the learning and memory ability was determined by Y maze test and Morris water maze test; HE staining was used to observe the morphological changes in brain tissue, and Nissl staining was used to observe the structure of neural cells and the number of Nissl bodies in cerebral tissue. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of phospho-tau serine 202/threonine 205 (abbreviated as AT8) in brain tissue. Western blot assay was used to determine the expressions of mitophagy-associated proteins [PTEN-induced putative kinase-1 (PINK1), Parkin, microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3B (LC3B), p62], synaptic-associated proteins [postsynaptic density protein-95 (PSD-95), synaptophysin (SYP), and growth-associated protein-43 (GAP-43)] and the phosphorylation of tau protein [expressed by the phosphorylation levels of serine 199 (Ser199) and Ser202] in brain tissue. RESULTS The mice in E-mail:lnzyxyqy2003@163.com model group showed symptoms such as white hair, decreased body mass, and lower limb paralysis, with incomplete hippocampal structures in their brain tissue, as well as incomplete cell membrane edges and cell structures; the spontaneous alternating response rate, the times of crossing platform, the number of Nissl bodies, the protein expressions of PINK1, Parkin, LC3B, SYP, GAP-43, and PSD-95 were decreased significantly, compared with control group; swimming latency (fourth and fifth day), the protein expressions of AT8 and p62,the phosphorylation levels of Ser199 and Ser202 were increased or lengthened significantly, compared with control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with model group, the above symptoms and indexes of mice were improved significantly in administration groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Dianxianqing granules can effectively improve cognitive impairment in P301S mice,the mechanism of which may be associated with inducing mitochondrial autophagy, reducing the hyperphosphorylation of tau protein, up-regulating the expression of synaptic-associated proteins in brain tissue,and repairing damaged neural cells.
