Pharmacogenomics refers to all the genes encoding drug-metabolizing enzymes,drug transporters,and other drug targets. Studying the relations betweeen gene polymorphisms and drug effects as well as the prediction of adverse reactions at the gene level will be a new method for the clinical therapy of digestive system diseases. Therefore,pharmacogenomics will be a complement of traditional methods for forming and administering drugs regimens.

28 days after injury (P < 0.05). In the fracture+spinal cord injury group, the level of serum transforming growth factor beta 1 had a rapid increase on the 7th day, and reached the peak on the 14th day, and then, this level had no significant decrease until the 28th day. In the simple fracture group, the level of serum transforming growth factor beta 1 began to increase on the 2nd day, reached the peak on the 7th day, and then decreased gradualy. Remarkable changes of serum transforming growth factor beta 1 levels in patients with bone fracture combined with spinal cord injury may be associated with fracture healing in different periods.

BACKGROUND:In the animal model of spinal cord injury associated with fractures, the trauma is severe and postoperative survival rate is low. The improved Al en method and open femoral osteotomy method for making animal model has many advantages, such as simple operation, no need of special equipment, quick establishment, shortened operation time and reduced intraoperative bleeding, so they are suitable for preparing a femoral fracture model combined with spinal cord injury.
OBJECTIVE:To design an animal model of femoral fracture combined with spinal cord injury, which can maintain long time survival, meet clinical features, and is simple and easy.
METHODS:Forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into simple femoral fracture group and femoral fracture merging spinal cord injury group. Femoral fracture model was caused by opening osteotomy to cause transverse fracture and implantation of internal fixator in femur. According to the improved Al en method, a self-made blow device was applied to cause acute T 10 segment contusion injury of spinal cord in rats. Thus the femoral fracture model merging spinal cord injury was successful y established. The rats in two groups were grossly observed at different time points after the modeling, and the fracture healing at 4 weeks was detected.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al the animal models of femoral fracture with spinal cord injury survived, which exhibited the loss of sensory and motor function of the lower limbs, but could slowly creep forward by the upper limbs. In the first 3 days, the rats had poor appetite and few activity, with tail suspension at night there were no ischemia and necrosis of the limb fracture. At 4 weeks, one rat in simple femoral fracture group died, while four rats in femoral fracture merging spinal cord injury group died, with the survival rate of 83.33%, intramedul ary fixation were not prolapsed. In the two groups, continuous bone cal us formation was found in the fracture, and the bone cal us volume in femoral fracture merging spinal cord injury group was significantly higher than those in simple femoral fracture group. The results demonstrated that combining the improved Al en method with smal lateral incision open femoral osteotomy is a simple and feasible method for the establishment of femoral fracture model merging spinal cord injury, and the models survive for 4 weeks.

BACKGROUND:Platelet-derived growth factor has the ability of wound repair, and relevant studies mainly focus on bone tissue repair. However, there are less studies about the effect of platelet-derived growth factors in skin wound healing. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the role of platelet-derived growth factor to promote wound healing by the regulation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels to the wound. METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels from rats were cultured. Immunofluorescence method was conducted to detect cel surface markers of CD34 and CD44 in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. Thirty healthy male SD rats were divided into five groups at random. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels labeled with PKH-26 were injected into the rat caudal vein in each group. The rats were anesthetized 1 week after injection. On the center of rat back, a 3-cm incision was made to establish a wound healing model. Different concentrations of platelet-derived growth factor were injectedvia multi-points on the skin wound after modeling, and the control group was treated with the same volume of normal saline. Skin wound tissues were taken for relevant parameter measurement at 14 days after injection. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Under the fluorescence microscope, platelet-derived growth factor could induce the migration and accumulation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels to the trauma in a dose-dependent manner and promote the wound healing. Masson staining showed that, with the concentration increase, platelet-derived growth factors could reduce inflammatory cel infiltration and increase the number of colagen fibers. Results from western blot assay showed that platelet-derived growth factor could inhibit the expression of matrix metaloproteinase-1, promote the expression of tissue inhibitor of matrix metaloproteinase 1 in the wound, and inhibit the colagen degradation, thereby promoting skin wound healing indirectly.

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 assess the clinical outcomes of posterior decompression and lumbar interbody fusion with internal fixation treatment for degenerative lumbar scoliosis (DLS). Methods Ninety-eight patients underwent surgery for DLS were retrospectively reviewed in this study. The mean age of the patients(male 35 and femail 63) was (56±9) years. The mean Cobb angle of curves was (26±9)° and the mean scoliosis Cobb angle of lumbar was (19±11)° in patients before surgery. A posterior medial incision was made for spinal exposure. According to the preoperative plan, patients were operated with posterior de-compression and lumbar interbody fusion with internal fixation. The clinical outcomes were assessed by the JOA scores.The preoperative and postoperative Cobb angle was recorded. Results The mean follow-up time was (3.7±2.4) years. The mean JOA scores were improved from (10±2) points preoperatively to (26±3) points at the last follow-up. The excellent or good outcome rates were 89.7%for patients with surgery. The average interbody fusion time was (5.7±1.4) months. The mean postoperative Cobb angle was (6±2)° at the last follow-up, and the mean Cobb angle correction was (17±4)°, with the correction rate of 59.2%. The mean lumbar lordosis angle was (12±3)°. There was no failure in internal fixation. Conclusion The posterior decompression and lumbar interbody fusion with internal fixation appears to be a reasonable option for degenerative lumbar scoliosis.

AIM:To elucidate whether ZFP580 is involved in the cardioprotective effects of hypoxic precondi-tioning (HPC) against hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) injury in H9c2 myocardial cells.METHODS: Rat heart-derived H9c2 cells were cultured in DMEM .H/R was induced by incubation under ischemic hypoxia for 3 h and reoxygenation for 2 h.HPC was induced by exposing the H 9c2 cells to 10 min of hypoxia and 20 min of reoxygenation for 3 cycles before H/R treatment.MTT staining and LDH leakage detection were used to evaluate the effects of HPC .Western blotting was used to detect the protein levels of ZFP580, phosphorylated ERK1/2 and cleaved caspased-3.The effects of ZFP580 overexpre-ssion or knockdown on H/R induced apoptosis were determined .RESULTS:The results of MTT staining and LDH leakage detection showed evidence of HPC cytoprotection against H /R-induced cell death in H9c2 cells.ZFP580 protein level and ERK1/2 phosphorylation were significantly increased in the HPC group compared with control group and H /R group. PD98059, an inhibitor of ERK1/2 phosphorylation , significantly suppressed the HPC-induced up-regulation of ZFP580 pro-tein expression.ZFP580 overexpression significantly inhibited apoptosis and caspase-3 activation in H9c2 cells.CON-CLUSION:HPC exhibits cytoprotection against H/R and leads to high level of ZFP 580 protein in H9c2 cells.ZFP580 is regulated by ERK1/2 activation and mediates the anti-apoptotic effect of the ERK1/2 signaling pathway in HPC cytoprotec-tion.

Objective To compare the myocardial protective effects of post-treatment with sevoflurane and isoflurane on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury(MIRI) in adult rats.Methods Twenty-four adult male SD rats were divided into four groups (n =6) by using the random number table,control group (C),isehemia-reperfusion group (R),sevoflurane post-treatment (S) and isoflurane post-treatment group(I).The Langendorff isolated heart perfusion model was established.The heart rate(HR),left ventricular end-diastolic pressure(LLVEDP),left ventricular developed pressure(LVDP),maximum rate of rise of left ventricular pressure(LV+-dp/dtmax),and maximum rate of decrease of left ventricular pressure(LV-dp/dtmax) were recorded at the end of equilibrium perfusion,and at 30,90 min of reperfusion,respectively.At the end of infusion,1 mm3.of apical myocardial tissue was removed for observing mitochondrial structure under electron microscopy and scoring.The myocardial infarct size(MIS) in the remaining heart tissue was measured by TTC staining.Results Compared with the R group,the S and I groups showed improved cardiac function indicators,decreased MIS,and reduced mitochondrial damage after reperfusion(P＜0.05).Compared with the S group,the I group showed worse heart function,increased MIS,and more severe mitochondrial damage after reperfusion(P＜0.05).Conclusion Post-treatment with sevoflurane and isoflurane has a protective effect on MIRI in adult rats.Post-treatment with sevoflurane has a better cardioprotective effect than that with isoflurane.
