Objective To evaluate the rationality, safety and efficiency of the time-limited rescue angioplasty following thrombolytic therapy in acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods Among the patients within 6 hours from the onset of symptoms of AMI, forty-four cases (group A) underwent primary coronary angioplasty and fifty-eight cases (group B) underwent firstly intravenous thrombolytic therapy. According to clinical early reperfusion indication within 90 minutes following thrombolytic therapy, group B was divided into two subgroups, the patients with early reperfusion (subgroup C) underwent delayed interventional examination 7～10 days after AMI and that with non-reperfusion (subgroup D) underwent rescue angioplasty. The reperfusion rates and complications in different groups were analyzed and compared. Cardiac function (left ventricular ejection fraction, LVEF) was evaluated by echocardiograph 4 weeks after AMI. Results The results showed that the rate of reperfusion, in group A, was 95.45% (42/44),that of subgroup C was 32.76 % (19/58) within 90 minutes following thrombolytic therapy (16 of subgroup C underwent delayed interventional examination and 12 of them underwent PTCA+stent) and that of subgroup D was 97.43% (38/39); There were no serious complications that occurred in subgroups C and D. The LVEFs in group A, subgroups C and D were not significantly different, but there was a significant difference between reperfusion within 6 hours and beyond after AMI (62.7% vs 56.8%, P

Objective To evaluate the treatment effect of acute liver failure(ALF) by xeno-transplantation of co-microencapsulated Sertoli cells and hepatocytes and the intraperitoneal immune privilege effects of Sertoli cells on hepatocytes. Methods ALF rats were induced by intraperitoneal injection of D-galactosamine and, thereafter, were treated with physical saline, free hepatocytes, microencapsulated hepatocytes, or co-microencapsulated Sertoli cells and hepatocytes (CMSH), respectively. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and total bilirubin (TBil) were detected in rats' blood samples from various groups. Expression of Smac/Diablo and caspase-3 were determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Fifteen rats in each group were used for survival rate analysis. The intraperitoneal microencapsules were observed and lymphocytes in ascites were counted. The data were analyzed by multi-factor or single factor analysis of variance and the comparison between groups was done by t test. Results In CMSH treatment group, ALT level decreased to (533.7 ± 76.5) U/L, AST level decreased to (381.2 5± 46.7) U/L after 48 h. TBil level reduced to (7.36 ± 2.18) μmol/L after 72 h. Albumin level increased to (28.4±2.5) g/L after 48 h. All these values were significantly different from those in other groups (F=10.7,6.5,12.2,8.4;P＜0.05). The expression levels of Smae/Diablo and caspase-3 mRNA at 48 h and 72 h were lower in CMSH group than in other groups (F=3.7,4.8,3.6,4.2; P＜0.05). Survival rates in microencapsulated hepatocytes group and CMSH group were similar while both of them were higher than other groups. Microencapsules neither in microencapsulated hepatocytes group nor in CMSH group were adhered to intraperitoneal mucosa. Lymphocyte counts in ascites of CMSH group were lower than those in microencapsulated hepatocytes group (t= 4.21, P＜0. 05). Conclusions Intraperitoneal transplantation with CMSH is a promising approach for ALF treatment. Furthermore, Sertoli cells can help reduce lymphocytes' aggregation caused by encapsulated hepatocytes in ascites.

Objective To investigate the changes of fractalkine (FKN) in rat model of acute liver failure (ALF) and the role of FKN in liver inflammatory injury.Methods SD rats were divided into tWO groups:6 in normal group and 36 in model group.D-galactosamine(D-Gal) was used to induce ALF in model group.The sera and hepatic tissue samples were collected at 12,24,48,72,120 andl68 h.After D-Gal injection.FKN mRNA and nuclear factor(NF)-kB mRNA in hepatic tissue samples were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results The levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) at 12 h were(208.3±43.5)U/L and (375.2±117.3)lJ/L,respectively,which were both significantly higher than those in normal group[(31.8±2.9)U/L and (90.8±3.1)U/L](t=-9.912 and-5.935,respectively,both P<0.01);the levels of ALT and AST peaked at 72 h after D-Gal injection.The levels of FKN mRNA(O.086±0.009)in model group at 12 h were significantly higher than those (O.044±0.009) in normal group(t=-7.999.P<0.01),and peaked at 72 h (O.333±0.033),then decreased obviously at 120 h. The levels of NF-KB mRNA in the liver of normal rats were very little;and the levels in model group were increased gradually over time,then peaked at 72 h (O.583±0.i01,t=-12.607,P<0.01).FKN mRNA and NF0kB mRNA were positively correlated (r=0.760,P<0.01).Conclusion The FKN expression may play all important role in liver inflammatory injury in rat model of acute liver failure, which could provide a new approach for ALF therapy.

Objective To investigate the relevant mechanism of different concentrations of Shenqi YiliuDecoction medicated serum on blocking cell cycle and inhibiting invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer cell lines MKN-45. Methods Sixty SPF Wistar rats were randomized intoShenqi Yiliu Decoction low-, medium-, and high-dose groups and control group, with 15 rats in each group. Low-, medium- and high-dose groups were fed with different concentrations of TCM liquid from which containing crude medicine (0.25, 0.50, 1.00 g/mL) separately for gavage. Rats in the blank group were given the same amount of drinking water for gavage, twice a day, for 7 days.2 h after the last gavage, rat blood was taken and serum was separated. After MKN-45 cells were dealt with different concentrations of medicinal serum, FCM was used to detect cell cycle and immunohistochemistry technology was used to detect the expressions of COX-2 and PTEM proteins.Results FCM analysis showed that medicated serum could increase G0-G1 phase and shorten S phase of cells; medicated serum could reduce the positive expression rate of COX-2 of the MKN-45 cells and increase positive expression rate of PTEN proteins (P<0.05).ConclusionShenqi YiliuDecoction medicated serum can block the cell cycle and inhibit invasion and metastasis of MKN-45 cell lines, which may be related to the intervention in the expression levels of COX-2 and PTEN proteins.

Methods Ferulic acid with a variety of concentrations was used to treat gastric cancer cell line MGC-803 for 24, 48, 72 h;MTT experiment was used to detect the growth of gastric cancer cells. After gastric cancer cell line MGC-803 were treated with ferulic acid with a variety of concentrations (0, 5, 7.5, 10 mg/mL) for 48 h, all gastric cancer cells were collected and stained by Annexin V-FITC/PI for the detection of apoptosis by flow cytometry. RT-qPCR and Western-blot methods were used to detect mRNA and protein levels of Caspase-3, Caspase-9, Bax, Bcl-2 and Xiap. Results Compared with the control group, the OD value of cell line MGC-803 treated by ferulic acid with a variety of concentrations (5, 7.5, 10, 12.5 mg/mL) decreased significantly;the anti-tumor effect of ferulic acid was obvious;IC50 of 24, 48, and 72 hours after treated by ferulic acid was 12.93, 9.73 and 5.52 mg/mL respectively. Cell lineMGC-803 treated by ferulic acid with a variety of concentrations (5, 7.5, 10 mg/mL) after 48 h could induce the apoptosis of MGC-803 cells, up-regulate mRNA and protein levels of Caspase-3, Caspase-9, and Bax, down-regulate mRNA and protein levels of Bcl-2 and Xiap. Conclusion Ferulic acid can inhibit the proliferation of MGC-803 cells effectively and induce the apoptosis of MGC-803 cells, which mechanism is related to mitochondria apoptosis pathway and the down-regulation of Xiap expression.

Objective To observe the regulatory effect of bFGF and TGF-β1 for the proliferation of mesenchymal progenitor cells ( MPCs) derived from primary osteoarthritis cartilage, and to provide theoretical evidence in preventing and curing primary OA. Methods Different concentrations of bFGF and TGF-β1 ( alone or combined) were used to treat primary OA cartilage and their effects on proliferation of MPCs were tested by MTT method. Results Either bFGF (10. 0~50. 0 ng/mL) or TGF-β1 (0. 1 ~1. 0 ng/mL) alone can significantly promote the proliferation of MPCs derived from primary OA cartilage (P<0. 05). But with their increased concentration,the proliferation rate was of no significant changes (P>0. 05). The combination of 10. 0 ng/mL bFGF and 1. 0 ng/mL TGF-β1 significantly increased the prolifer-ation of MPCs from primary OA (P<0. 05). Conclusion Both bFGF and TGF-β11 play important roles in the proliferation of MPCs in primary OA cartilage,and they can increase the proliferation in different degree with different concentrations. There must be feasible methods of gene technology to promote cell proliferation and differentiation of MPCs for repairing articular car-tilage injury.

This study was aimed to design the distal radial anatomic splint which was more in line with the human anatomy and treatment characteristics using the computer design software 3D-MAX. According to ergonomic design principles, the forearm and wrist plaster splint were selected from volunteer models. Then, data of the plaster was measured and input into the computer for the design of the three-dimensional model of distal radial anatomic splint with 3D-MAX software. Finally, the blueprint was drawn for the factory to make the distal radial anatomic splint. The results showed that the distal radial anatomic splint was more in line with human anatomy, which did not require shaping in clinical using. It did not affect the biomechanical properties. And the patients never complain the squeez-ing discomfort of the splint. It was concluded that the three-dimensional model of the distal radial anatomic splint, which designed with 3D-MAX software, provided key parameters of the important part of the distal radial anatomic splint. Therefore, the produced splint was more in accordance with the human anatomy and the clinic treatment re-quirements. It avoided the loss of biomechanical properties after shaping, which was more convenient and effective in the clinical using. Its clinical promotion has a broad prospect.
