Objective To Study the effect of long-term triptolide use on the content of the normal rat plasma ACTH.Methods 20 male SD rats were divided into 2 groups randomly,and gavaged for 7 weeks.The control group was 10 with 2%propylene glycol 2ml/kg,bid;the group of Triptolide was 10 with 2% the mixture of propylene glycol and Triptolide 20?g/kg,bid.We used radioimmunoassay to detecet the content of ACTH in rat's plasma and immunocytochemistry to detecet the expression of ACTH in pituitary. Results The content of ACTH in the group of the Triptolide had significant difference as compared with control group.The expression of ACTH in the group of the Triptolide was higher than that of control group. Conclusion These results suggested that one of the possible mechanism of the Triptolide in the HPAA might be exciting pituitary ACTH neurons,thus causing the content of ACTH increasing.

0.05).However, the frequency of the allele of g(-1359)t polymorphisms was higher in patients than that in the controls(P

0.05).The effect on traditional Chinese medical syndrome in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group(P 0.05).The average insulin dosage and hypoglycemia incidence were reduced,and the time for blood glucose becoming normal was shortened in the treatment group(P

Objective To detect the plasma plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1)and urokinase-type plasminogen activator(uPA)levels in PCOS and control of different BMI.Methods This experiment is divided into PCOS group and control group,PCOS group also divided into obesity and without obesity.To assay plasma PAI-1 and serum uPA of PCOS with or without obesity by enzyme-linked immunosurbent assay(ELISA),and to meassure body mass index(BMI),waist hip ratio(WHR),blood glucose,fasting insulin and IRT.To evaluate insulin resistance with Homa Model and to measure insulin area under curve(AUC).Results LH/FSH,T,blood glucose,HOMA-IR,AUC and the plasma level of PAI-1 were significantly increased in PCOS as compared with normal control,and HOMA-IR,AUC and the plasma level of PAI-1 were also increased in obesity as compared with non-obesity of PCOS(P

Objective: To study the change of the blood level of CORT and expression of CRHmRNA in asthma-tic rats and the effects of Bushendingchuan Decoction(Cornu Cervi, Herba Cistanches, Radix Morindae Officinalis, Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, etc.) on them. Methods: The change of level in CORT was measured by radioimmunoassay, the change of level in hypothalamic CRHmRNA was measured by RT-PCR(Reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction by the semi-quantitative determination). Results: The blood level of CORT decreased(P

Primary intraventricular hemorrhage is a rare type of non-traumatic cerebral hemorrhage neurological disorder.Not only has it higher mortality and morbidity,but also complicated etiologies.However,there is still lack of standard diagnostic techniques and treatment methods for decreasing mortality rate and improving prognosis of primary,intraventricular hemorrhage.Rational use of ultra-early hemostatic therapy and acute surgery therapy are considered as clinical treatment strategies to increase survival rate and improve the quality of life for primary intraventricular hemorrhage patients.This paper aims to give review on some etiology,diagnosis and therapy methods of primary intraventricular hemorrhage,and to provide new ideas for the treatment.

Objective To explore the applicability of the childhood autism spectrum test (CAST) of children in Mainland China according to autism screening,in order to provide the effective reference for the identification and diagnosis of autism spectrum disorders of children.Methods Two hundreds and fifty-two typical developing children,and 61 autistic children who were confirmed by psychological clinic of Child Healthcare Clinic,Shenzhen Luohu District Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital who were conformed with diagnosis standards of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fifth Edition(DSM-5) by using CAST Chinese version were assessed,and the reliability and validity analysis were made on the CAST scale.The receiver operating characteristic curve was drew to determine the optimal threshold value,and the sensitivity,specificity and positive predictive value were calculated.Results CAST Chinese version had good reliability,Cronbach's α was 0.880.Split-half reliability coefficient r was 0.821,and the whole scale calibration reliability coefficient was 0.902.There was statistically significant difference between items and the total score(P＜0.05).The consistency between the CAST ≥4 years old children and diagnosis standards of DSM-5 reached 0.884(P=0.000).The consistency 3-＜4 years old children and diagnosis standards of DSM-5 reached 0.867 (P=0.000).Among the screening of the children who were ≥4 years old,the cut off was 15 scores that the sensitivity and specificity were best.With the children of 3-＜4 years old,a designated cut-point should be 17 scores.Conclusions There are good reliability and validity of CAST,which can be used to mainland China,as well as to screen autistic children more than 3 years old.

Background and purpose:Dendritic cells(DCs) possess specialized feature such as pathogen recognition,antigen capturing and processing machinery,and stimulating naive T lymphocyte to have antitumor ability that allow them to act like professional APCs.This paper is aimed to confirm the impacts on the proliferation and secretion of INF-? of tumor specific CTL and its cytotoxocity induced by DC loaded with different antigen.Methods:After the stimulation of DC loaded with different antigen,the proliferative rate of allolymphocytes was measured by MTT and the cytotoxocity of CTL was evaluated with LDH method.The INF-? secreted by activated T lymphocytes was detected by ELISPOT.Results:The DC loaded with CPP-Id(320%?15%) had significantly induce T lymphocyte proliferating when comparing with the induction by DC loaded with Id(57%?10%)(P

AIM To study the boosting effect of Maximin 2 on expression of HLA DR and HLA ABC by cultured bladder cancer cell lines and compare with TNF ??IFN ?. METHODS Cell culture and FCM were used to dectect the effects of Maximin 2,TNF and IFN on the cell growth of three types of bladder cancer cell lines and HLA DR and HLA ABC expression under the IC 50 culture concentration. RESULTS Maximin 2 had show inhibition to cells growth under the small dosage. TNF ??IFN ? also had the effect on restrain all 3 cell lines growth. The expression of HLA DR was not any change in all 3 cell lines after being stimulated by Maximin 2?TNF ? and IFN ?, Maximin 2 and TNF ? can not change HLA ABC expression, IFN ? can up regulate HLA ABC expression. CONCLUSION Maximin 2 show the dose dependent effect on cell growth suppression; The mechanism of antitumor of Maximin 2 seems not relate to the enhanced expression of HLA DR or HLA ABC, TNF ? and IFN ? also not found effect to HLA DR expression. Since IFN ? are able to increase the expression of HLA ABC expression,enhanced recognization and cytotoxity of CTL to bladder cancer cells. It is may be one of the mechanism of antitumor of IFN ?.

Cerebrovascular diseases can lead to hemiplegia,hemiparaesthesia and hemianopia.However,patients with poor eyesight resulting from bilateral cerebral infarction are rare.The authors reported here the rehabilitation assessment and treatment of one case with hemiplegia and poor eyesight resulting from bilateral cerebral infarction.According to the poor eyesight of the patient,a rehabilitation program which was different from common program was designed,and the patient can walk independently and achieve basic activities of daily living independence underlying the treatment of the new rehabilitation program.The attention should be paid on the variant rehabilitation treatment process depending on variant condition of patients.
