BACKGROUND:Brain microvascular endothelial cel s (BMECs) are important tools in the field of neuroscience research;therefore, how to obtain highly purified BMECs is a key and difficulty in vitro.
OBJECTIVE:To develop a simple method of isolating and culturing highly purified BMECs.
METHODS:C57BL/6 mice aged 6-8 weeks old were selected, and microvessels were obtained using enzyme digestion and gradient centrifugation. Further, endothelia cel s were purified by certain drugs, fol owed by identified by CD31 and GFAP immunofluorescence staining. The expression of Claudin-5 was detected using immunofluorescence staining with anti-Claudin-5 antibody.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Mouse BMECs grew and arranged in spiral or cobblestone-like. Immunofluorescence staining showed that the purity of BMECs reached above 99%and Claudin-5 was highly expressed. In conclusion, a simple method of easy accessibility is developed to obtain highly purified primary mouse BMECs.

Objective To investigate the mechanism underlying the protective effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) in secondary spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods Models of acute SCI were established in 96 SpragueDawley rats using Allen's dropping weight technique. The rats were then divided into a HBO group, a high pressure nitrogen normal oxygen group, a normal pressure oxygen group and a normal pressure air group. The injured spinal cords were sampled for morphological studies at the 1 st, 3rd, 7th and 14th day after injury. Apoptotic cells were labeled using the TUNEL technique, and the expression of caspase-3 was detected. The neurological functionality of the spinal cord was assessed by open field locomotor evaluation ( the BBB score). Results The expression of caspase3 in the HBO group decreased significantly more than in the other groups after injury. The number of TUNEL-positive cells was significantly lower in the HBO group as well. Neurological function improved significantly after HBO therapy. Conclusions HBO can down-regulate the expression of caspase-3 and inhibit cell apoptosis in rats after SCI.The protective effect of HBO was related with the oxygen level.

Objective To learn and evaluate the present prescriptions from outpatient departments of 21 public hospitals in Songjiang district,and to promote rational drug use.Methods A total of 75,600 outpatient prescriptions from 21 public hospitals in Songjing district were collected monthly from January 2008 to October 2010 and analyzed statistically using indexes for prescription evaluation.Results of the 75,600 prescriptions,the types of drugs in each prescription averaged 2.35,the ratio of antibiotics use and injection agents use were 35.77% and 17.40%,respectively.The percentage of essential drugs without added profit accounted for 41.91% of the total drug use,and the average drug cost per prescription was RMB 85.99.Comparison of indexes for prescription evaluation showed that the ratio of antibiotics use and injection agents use as well as the average cost per prescription in secondary hospitals were significantly higher that those in community health centers (P<0.01),while the percentage of essential drugs without added profit and the average number of drugs in each prescription were statistically smaller than those in community health centers (P<0.01).Conclusion Drug use in outpatient departments of 21 public hospitals was rational in general,especially noteworthy is the significant improvement made at community health centers in recent three years.

Objective To observe the effect of Sachet-therapy on prevention of infant upper respiratory tract infection. Methods A cluster sampling was conducted for quantitative investigation. Hangzhou urban infants were randomly treated with either wearing Sachet or not wearing Sachet for 12 weeks′ observation.We then analyzed statistically the incidence of the two groups. Results The incidence was 14.42 % in the infant observer group and 54.98% in the contrast group with statistical significance(P

Objective To report the clinical outcomes of open reduction and internal fixation for capitellum fractures in adolescents.Methods From January 2010 to January 2015,14 adolescents with capitellum fracture were admitted to our department.They were 12 males and 2 females,aged from 12 to 16 years (13.7 years).By the Dubberley classification,we had 2 cases of type ⅠA,8 cases of type ⅡA,3 cases of type Ⅲ A and one of type Ⅲ B.We summarized their clinical characteristics and injury mechanisms.At the last follow-up,the therapeutic efficacy was assessed by the Mayo elbow function scores,and the ranges of motion of the elbow and forearm on the affected side were recorded.Results The 14 patients obtained an average follow-up of 12 months (from 6 to 18 months).All the cases achieved fracture union within 3 months,but malunion appeared in one.At the last follow-up,the ranges of flexion and extension of the affected elbow averaged 120.6° (from 110° to 135°),and the ranges of lateral rotation of the affected forearm averaged 160.3° (from 150° to 175°).According to the Mayo scores at the last follow-up,the elbow function was rated as excellent in 12 and as good in one.Mild traumatic arthritis occurred in 3 cases.Conclusions Capitellum fractures in adolescents are often Dubberley type A ones without a complicated fracture of the posterior condyle.Usually,the capitellum is impacted by the radial head in the process of elbow extension with valgus stress.After definite diagnosis,open anatomical reduction and reasonable and reliable internal fixation can result in good clinical results.

Objective To investigate whether arsenic trioxide(As2O3)with different density is capable of affecting the invasiveness of neuroblastoma(NB)cells,and to give grounds for NB therapy with As2O3.Methods 1.Well-developed NB cells were selected and exposed to 0.75 ?mol/L,1.50 ?mol/L,3.0 ?mol/L As2O3 for 24 h;2.Collect the adherence cells,count the number and float them in nutrient medium again,add them into the transwell polycarbonate membrane plate that was covered by matrigel,there were 2?104 NB cells in each well;3.After 24 h,take off the membrane,fix the cells which cross the membrane with mehanol and dye them with hematoxylin;4.Observe the NB cells and count them,so the capability of invasion of LA-N-5 was evaluated by transwell chamber assay.Results After 24 h with the different density As2O3,the number of invading LA-N-5 cells was significantly lower in As2O3 group than that in control group(the number of invading cells of the As2O3 group was 28.0?4.0,19.33?4.16,6.33?1.53,respectively,the cell number of the control group was 46.33?6.11)(P=0.013,0.003,0);among the experiment groups,there was no difference between 0.75 ?mol/L and 1.50 ?mol/L(P=0.06),and it was significantly different between 0.75 ?mol/L and 3.0 ?mol/L,1.50 ?mol/L and 3.0 ?mol/L(P=0,0.007),the number of invading LA-N-5 cells of 3.0 ?mol/L As2O3 was the least.Conclusions As2O3 could inhibit the invasive potential of NB cells;the inhibitory action of 3.0 ?mol/L As2O3 is the most.
