This paper is to prepare curcumin (Cur) loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticle (Cur-MSN), evaluate its release behavior and anti-cancer activity in vitro. Mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN) was prepared by polymerization method and Cur-MSN was obtained using solvent evaporation method and impregnation centrifugation method. The preparation method was optimized using entrapment efficiency (EE) and loading efficiency (LE) as indexes. Cur-MSN was characterized with scanning electron microscope and its particle size and zeta potential were determined. Finally, in vitro release behavior in 0.2% SDS solution and its cell-killing effect on HeLa cells were also evaluated. The Cur-MSN prepared with process optimization method was round and uniform and exhibited typical mesoporous characterization. The mean particle size and Zeta potential of Cur-MSN were 75.8 nm and -30.1 mV, respectively. EE and LE of three batches of Cur-MSN were (72.55 ± 2.01)% and (16.21 ± 1.12)%, respectively. In vitro release behavior of Cur-MSN showed a sustained release profile with 83.5% cumulative release within 96 h. The killing effect of Cur-MSN on HeLa cells was dose-dependent with IC50 of 19.40 mg x L(-1), which was similar to that of Cur.

Objective　To explore the relationship between te lomerase activity and bile duct carcinoma and its significance in clinical diag nosis. Methods　Telomerase activities were examined in 23 cases of bile duct carcinoma, 5 cases of carcinoma adjacent tissues and 5 cases of nor mal bile duct tissues respectively with telomerase PCR-ELISA method. Results　Telomerase activity was detected in 18 of 23 cases (78.3%) of b ile duct carcinoma, and was not found in 5 cases of carcinoma adjacent tissues a nd 5 cases of normal bile duct tissues. The detection rate of telomerase activit y had no correlation with patients' age, sex, tumor site and size but significan tly correlated to metastasis of tumor (P<0.05). Conclusion　The level of telomerase activity was significantly higher in bile duct carcino ma and may be served as one of the clinical marker for malignant neoplasm becaus e of its spsecificity.

Objective To explore a new way to improve the repairing effect of tendon allograft by pretreatment with ethyldimethylaminopropyl carbodiimide (EDC) cross-linking. Methods Rabbits' tendon allografts were obtained by lyopyilization.The allografts were then cross-linked and heparinized by EDC and N-hydroxy-succinimide (NHS) respectively.The degradation rate,cytotoxicity and histocompatibility of the cross-linked allografts were detected and compared with those of untreated at different time points.The injured anterior cruciate ligaments (ACL) were repaired by tendon allografts with and without cross-linking pretreatment in rabbits.The tendon-bone healing was observed and compared by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) at 1,3,6 months. Results The degradation rate of the pretreated tendon allografts [(6.26 ± 3.16)％] was significantly lower than that of the unpretreated [(30.70 ± 10.24)％]( t = 14.200,P = 0.025 ).The pretreated tendon allografts were atoxigenic and produced significantly lower inflammatory reaction ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The pretreated tendon allografts also showed more powerful capability of repairing ACL injury and shorter time of tendon-bone healing. Conclusion Tendon allografts cross-linked and heparinized by EDC/NHS may promote tendon-bone healing with improved stability,degradation and biocompatibility.

Objective To know the advantages and disadvantages of problem-based learning from students'angle. Methods Interviewed 15 students by PBL scale and face to face interview,to know their ideas about problem-based learning,and then analyzed the results. Results PBL contributed to developing problem-solving skills,self-directed learning,team collaboration and extending professional knowl-edge. But it failed to show positive effect on students'learning motivation. Conclusions PBL has two sides on the outcomes of learning. Implementing PBL appropriately could gain the optimal effects.

Objective Congenital dislocation of the patella is rare and produces varying degrees of knee disability with the growth of the child. It should be managed as soon as the diagnosis is made. The purpose of this paper is to describe the procedure and to assess the results of congenital dislocation of patella treated with medial transfer of patellar tendon and lateral transfer of medial fascio muscular flap. Methods Five children with congenital dislocation of patella were treated with medial transfer of patellar tendon and lateral transfer of medial fascio muscular flap between June 1994 and June 1998. There were two boys and three girls. The age of the patients at the surgery varied from 4 to 10 years. Four of them were unilateral and one was bilateral without any other deformities. An S-shaped incision is made to expose the distended medial fascio muscular flap, dislocated patella and well developed vastus medialis. The patellar tendon is detached from its insertion and released from the surrounding retinacula. A hole corresponding to the width of the patella is made in the membrane and another one is made through the synovial membrane and the fibrous capsule. The patellar tendon was sutured into the hole in the tibial metaphysis through the two membrane holes. The iliotibial band was lengthened and the biceps tendon was turned over the abundant medial retinaculum with a part of the vastus medialis to the lateral side of the synovial membrane. The patient was kept in a long leg cast and immobilized for 6 weeks. Results The average period of follow up was three years(range, one year and six months to five years). Four cases were able to extend the knee completely and one case had minus ten degrees in extention. Knee valgus in two patients disappeared after operation and one had a lower patella, but the function of knee was normal without any symptoms and signs. There were no complications in this series. Conclusion The patients with congenital dislocation of patella which is permanent and irreducible must be interfered with operation. Five patients were successfully treated with medial transfer of patellar tendon and lateral transfer of medial fascio muscular flap with less invasive and no complications, therefor it is worthwhile to be recommended for the treatment of congenital dislocation of patella.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the expression and roles of IL-9 and its receptor (IL-9R) mRNA in the nasal mucosa of ovalbumin-induced allergic rhinitis (AR) mice. METHODS Sixteen Balb/c mice were selected and randomly divided into two groups with 8 mice in each group. Mice were used for establishing the animal model of AR with ovalbumin sensitization as AR group, at the same time, the physiological saline as the control group. In each group, 4 mice were randomly taken from each group, and the pathological examination showed that the model was successful. The nasal mucosa was taken from the remaining 4 mice in each group and then to detect IL-9 and IL-9R mRNA in nasal mucosa of the two groups by using real-time quantitative PCR. RESULTS The expression of IL-9 and IL-9R mRNA could be detected in both the control and AR groups. The expression levels of IL-9 and IL-9R mRNA in the nasal mucosa of the AR group were both higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). The expression level of IL-9 mRNA was positively correlated with the expression of IL-9R mRNA in the nasal mucosa of mice (r =0.857, P<0.05). CONCLUSION IL-9 and its receptor IL-9R are involved in the development of AR, and play an important role in the development of allergic rhinitis. It provides a new perspective for the further understanding of the pathogenesis of AR and provides a new clue for the treatment of allergic rhinitis.
