Objective To induce experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) in female C57BL/6 mice with the extracellular domain of myelin oligedendroglia glycoprotein(MOG~(Igd)). Percentages of CD4~+ CD25~+ T cell (Tr) were tested , and also normalized expressions of Foxp3. Methods Molecular cloning technology was used to produce MOG~(Igd) fusion protein. The MOG~(Igd)-TrxA fusion protein and TrxA protein were purified by metal chelate affinity chromatography (MCAC). Mice were injected s. c. in the flank with 300 μg MOG~(Igd) in complete Frcund's adjuvant (CFA) supplemented with 4 μg/μl Mycobacterium tuberculosis. H37Rv. Mice received 0.4 ml emulsion of spinal cord homogenate of guinea pigs (GPSCH) in positive control group, and the same volume emulsiom of TrxA in negative control group, while mice served as normal control received only saline/adjuvant. Mice were monitored two times a day for continuously 30 days by double bind. Clinical scores and histopathology were evaluated. Then, mice were sacrificed. The spinal cord and brain were removed and fixed in buffered formalin. Horizontal sections taken from the central nervous system(CNS) were stained with haematoxylin and eosin (HE), and Kluver-Barrera staining. Also, immunohistochemistry was performed. Percentages of CD4~+ CD25~+ T cells were tested through flow cytometric analysis, and real-time PCR was performed to test normalized expressions of Foxp3 mRNA. Then, correlations between the two were performanced. Results Mice in both MOG group and GPSCH group shew chronic non-remitting course. The onset of disease, time when the most severe clinical symptoms happened and the clinical score between the two groups shew no significant differnces (P>0.05). However, neither in TrxA treated group nor in normal control group did animals exhibit clinical signs of EAE. Histologic sections of the brain and spinal cord taken from affected animals shew perivascular infiltration of mononuclear cells, gliosis, and multifocal demyelination. Lesions scattered throughout the CNS including brainstem, spinal cord, cerebellum, and penventricular white matter. There were significant differences between MOG group and TrxA group in the level of lesion-ceutric AQP-4 expression showing up by immunohistochemistry (P<0.05). Percentages of CD4~+ CD25~+ T cells in MOG group and GPSCH group were (4.71±1.61) % and (1.44±0.65) %, respectively, both of which were significantly lower than those in the normal control group or TrxA treated group (P<0.01). And the difference between MOG group and GPSCH group also reached statistics meaning (P<0.01). Normalized expression of Foxp3 mRNA in MOG group was 2.26± 1.97, and was not significantly higher than the 1.44±1.20 level in GPSCH group (P>0.05). However, they beth were statistically lower than that in the negative control group, namely 8.58±3.34 (P<0.01). Percentages of CD4~+ CD25~+ T cells was statistically correlated with expressions of Foxp3 mRNA (P< 0.05). Conclusion EAE induced in C57BL/6 mice with MOG~(Igd) is reproduceable. It shares the similar clinial signs and pathologic features with human multiple sclerosis(MS). Thus, we find a good way to further study the immune mechanisms of MS and also to search for the effective treatments.

Objective To study the protective effect of hyperin( Hyp) on the acute liver injury in rats induced by CCl4 . Methods The acute liver injury model was induced by CCl4 . The effect of Hyp on acute liver injury of rat liver histopathology was observed;and the impact of changes of homogenates total superoxide dismutase ( T-SOD) ,glutathione ( GSH) activity and malondialdehyde ( MDA) in liver were de-tected. Results The acute liver injury of tissue induced by CCl4,apparent pathological inflammation and fibrous tissue degeneration and necrosis were observed by HE staining;At the high doses of 60 mg/kg and medium doses of 30 mg/kg treated by Hyp,liver pathology changes was significantly obvious. The T-SOD,GSH activity of liver tissue was significantly increased in the groups of Hyp treatment,MDA content was significantly decreased,which related to the dosages. Conclusion In the rat model of acute liver injury induced by CCl4 . A better therapeu-tic effect of Hyp was shown,the mechanism may be related to its antioxidant activity.

AIM: To investigate two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the apolipoprotein(a) promoter at positions -418 and -384 and to compare distributing difference of genotype frequencies of single nucleotide among different races and to explore the influencies of them on serum lipid level and their association with coronary heart disease (CHD). METHODS: Using PCR-RFLP (BsgI,BfaI) method, we determined genotypes of these two SNPs in 156 unrelated healthy controls of HanZu Chinese and 56 unrelated CHD patients of HanZu Chinese and 56 unrelated African Blacks, then cloned polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products into T-vector and sequenced it by M13 currency primer, correspondingly. RESULTS: (1) There was no polymorphism at position -418A/A and -384C/C in control group. Only one CHD patient′s genotype determined was -418G/G, other were -418A/A and (-384C/C) in CHD patients. (2) Only two African Blacks′ genotype determined was -418G/G, other were -418A/A and (-384C/C) in African Blacks. (3) However, the Apo(a) promoter sequence was in coincident with the sequence publicized in GenBank and the base at positions -418 was adenine (A) and -384 was cytosine (C). CONCLUSION: The mutation frequencies at position -418 and -384 are low in the Chinese Han Population of Hubei and perhaps no single nucleotide polymorphisms is at two positions. No association with serum lipid levels and CHD is observed. There may be great variabilities to the SNPs in the Apo(a) promoter among different races.

Objective:It has been demonstrated that anesthetics exposure may lead to neurocognitive impairment in developing brain of animal models.However,for the limitation that the animal models can-not fully mimic the dose and duration in clinical settings especially for dental general anesthesia,the cli-nical significance of anesthetics exposure on developing central nervous system remains undetermined. Therefore,we conducted the current study in order to observe the fluctuation of intelligence quotient (IQ)after the administration of dental general anesthesia comparing to that before surgery.We conducted the current study in order to observe the fluctuation of intelligence quotient (IQ)after the administration of dental general anesthesia compared with that before surgery.Methods:Thirty two patients,ASA Ⅰ, who were exposed to dental general anesthesia in Department of Pediatric Dentistry Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology,aged 4 to 6.5 years,were enrolled in this prospective study.Patients with severe learning difficulties or communication disorders were excluded.Written and informed consent was obtained from each patients’family which was fully explained of the purpose and method of study. Their intelligence quotients were evaluated with the Chinese Wechsler young children scale of intelligence (Urban version)before and 2 weeks after dental anesthesia.They were treated by experienced pediatric dentists and the sevoflurane,propofol and nitrous oxide were used for general anesthesia by anesthetist. Articaine hydrochloride and epinephrine tartrate injections were used for their pulp treatment or extrac-tion.The examiners and scorers for IQ had technical training in the test administration.All the patients were tested by the same examiner and with standardized guide language.Each subtest was scored accor-ding to the tool review.Verbal IQ and performance IQ consisted of relevant 5 subtests and full scale IQ. Statistical analyses were performed by SPSS 18.0.All the scores of subtests and 3 types of IQ were ex-pressed as x-±s.Paired two-tailed t test was applied and P<0.05 was accepted as statistically signifi-
cant.Results:The results of intelligent assessment from 28 subjects were collected.The anesthetic time was (163.4 ±32.6)min and the number of treated teeth was 12.1 ±2.3,mean age (4.60 ±0.41 ) years;age range=4.04 to 5.44 years.Among the patients,there were 13 girls and 15 boys.There was no significant difference in gender distribution.The postoperative full IQ (128.46 ±10.85 )was higher than that before surgery (124.64 ±11.46,P=0.017).We found that the elevation of performance IQ, to a large extent,contributed to this change in full IQ (P=0.007).Correspondingly,there was no sta-tistical difference in the verbal IQ,which was 119.68 ±11.74 to 120.21 ±15.61 (P=0.854).Con-clusion:Dental general anesthesia has no negative effect on the intelligence of preschool children,who were treated under general anesthesia by sevoflurane,propofol and nitrous oxide for 2 to 4 hours.The full IQ and performance IQ were slightly enhanced after treatment which can be explained by the memory effect.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) for the treatment of portal hypertension of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods Ninety-five portal hypertension patients with hepatic carcinoma were enrolled.TIPS was performed in 63 patients and the other 32 patients received support medical care.The data referred to survival time of the 95 patients after treatment was collected by follow-up visit.The informations about success rate of TIPS,hepatic encephalopathy,rebleeding and causes of death were assessed.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to compare the survival time between two groups.The association of survival time with Child-Pugh classification and model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score was analyzed.Results The success rate of TIPS was 97.8% with reduction of mean portal vein pressure of 13.6 cmH2O(1 cmH2O=0.098 kPa).The incidence of hepatic encephalopathy was 20.6% and rebleeding was 26.3% six months after TIPS treatment.Fifty-six patients treated with TIPS died at the end of follow-up.Twelve of which were died of variceal bleeding complicated with portal hypertension.The median survival time of TIPS group (3.67 months) was significantly longer than that of control group (1 month). Moreover, the median survival time in patients with low MELD score (≤13) was significantly longer than that in those with high MELD seore (>13, x2=4.71,P=0.03). Whereas the median survival time was decreasing from Child-Pugh A to C(x2=15.6,P=0.00). Conclusions TIPS is one of effective and safe therapeutic methods to control portal hypertension. However, liver function is an important factor for selcetion of TIPS.
