We only prolongated the course of shock from 2h to 5h, without predi- sposing the dogs. At 5h after hemorrhagic shock, the experimental results were asfollows: The ultrastructural damages were not only detected in the lung but also in theheart, liver, intestine and kidney etc. Major pathological lesions were: swelling of paren-chymal cells in various organs, vacular degeneration, and de-connection of cells. The laterwas shown as disintegration of hepatocyte-conjunction and disappearance of microvilli. Theorganelles of various cells ruptured to different degrees, for example, mitochondria swelledand its crista dissolved, endoplasmic reticulum dilated and de-granulated. In addition, thefibril of cardiac muscle thinned and dissolved, the capillary endothelial tight-conjunctionsof lung and intestine ruptured etc. The quantity of entero-endotoxin in plasma increasedin accordance with prolongation of shock, and its quantity was most abundant in portalvein, the next was artery and the last was hepatic vein. All experimental results showedthat the entero-endotoxin was related to the changes of ultrastructure of various organs.

Objective To construct a baculovirus expression vector for expression of human Ro60 cDNA. Methods Ro60 cDNA was cloned from Hela cell RNA with RT-PCR and was inserted into plasmid pFastBac HTc. Plasmid pFastBac HTc-Ro60 was then transformed into E. coli DH10Bac competent cells for transposition. The constructed recombinant was determined by both blue-white colony screening and PCR analysis. Results A 1.56kb Ro60 cDNA was obtained from Hela cell RNA and was successfully inserted to plasmid pFastBac HTc. DNA sequencing and restriction enzyme analysis revealed that both open reading frame and sequence of the cDNA were identical to Ro60 sequence previously published. Specific transposition and virus recombination were obtained in the vector Bacmid-Ro60. Conclusion Ro60 cDNA has been successfully cloned and constructed to baculovirus expression vector, which is useful for protein expression and further study of this autoantigen in the pathogenesis of lupus erythematosus.

Methods Normal enamel samples were randomly divided into four groups: control group,irradiation group,fluoride varnish group and fluoride varnish-irradiation group.The microconsistency of enamel surface before and after treatment,after anti-caries test was measured by type MH-5 durometer. Results Fluoride varnish had an inhibitory effect on the decrease of enamel microconsistency etched with lactate buffer.The microconsistency in irradiation group was obviously lower than that in control group(P

[Objective]To measure adult normal femur specimen in order to obtain accurate femoral resection and match the distal femoral in total knee arthroplasty.[Method](1)Forty-seven adult normal femur specimens of central Chinese were used for taking digital pictures in both anteroposterior and medialateral position.Five angles were measured through drawing lines of fixed point.(2)The exact position of the entry point was defined by the two wires on the specimens.[Result](1)The five angles reflect distal femoral anatomy features on the frontal plane and sagittal plane.(2)The mean value of distance from the entry point to the center of the intercondylar notch was 6.21 mm and the distance from the entry point to the anterior margin of the femoral posterior cruciate ligament(PCL) insertion is found to be 6.7 mm.[Conclusion](1)The distal one-third of femora was found to be outward bowing on frontal plane and forward bowing on Sagittal plane.Especially,the forward bowing is more remarkable than Outward bowing.So,when the position of intramedullary guide stick is decided by distal femoral anatomy,the axis alignments on frontal and Sagittal planes are both important.(2)During total knee afthroplasty the exact position of entry point may be defined by the Center of the intefcondylar notch and femoral PCL insertion.

Objective To investigate the prognosis of two subtypes of subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE). Methods Forty patients with subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus were followed-up for 3 to 14 years. The clinical and laboratory findings, the response to treatment and the prognosis in these cases were comparatively analyzed. Results During the follow-up period, the patients with annular erythema subtype of SCLE showed recurrent annular skin lesions and mild systemic manifestations. Some patients gradually developed sicca symptoms. On the other hand, most patients with papulosquamous subtype of SCLE developed systemic LE manifestions. 21.7％ of the patients in the annular erythema group had mild nephritis which could be controlled by lower dose of corticosteroids and no patients died. However, 64.7％ of the patients in the papulosquamous group had moderate to severe lupus nephritis, which required higher dose of corticosteroids or immunosuppressive agents to control. Among them, One patient died and 3 patients developed uremia. Conclusion Annular erythema subtype of SCLE is milder and has a better prognosis than that of papulosquamous subtype.

Objective To detect the expression of the tryptase in the plasma,and study the meaning in brain traumatic patients.Methods There were two groups:the brain traumatic group(40 patients)and the control group (20 health people).The content of plasma tryptase was determined by fluorescence enzyme immunoassay..Results The level of plasma tryptase had no statistical significance in control group(2.97 ±1.05)μg/L compared with the brain traumatic group(3.03 ±1.39)μg/L,however there had statistical significance comparing with sever brain traumatic patients(3.84 ±0.52μg/L)(t =3.32,P <0.05).4 cases of death in patients with severe head injury group content of tryptase (5.85 ±1.05)μg/L,which was significantly higher than the group of 16 cases of injury in severe head injury after 2 months still alive with the content of serum tryptase (2.49 ±0.52)μg/L,the difference was statistically significant (t =8.13,P <0.01).Conclusion The plasma tryptase level in sever brain traumatic patients increased significantly,and might be of importance for treatment strategies and prognosis.

Objective To explore the effects of H.pylori and crude extracted proteins secreted by H.pylori(broth culture filtrate protein,BCF-P)on acid secretion from isolated rabbit parietal cells.Methods Parietal cells from rabbit gastric mucosa were isolated and enriched with digestion and elutriation.H.pylori(NCTC 11637,CagA+ VacA+)were grown in liquid broth culture and BCF-P was precipitated with ammonium sulfate.The vacuolation activity of BCF-P was evaluated with neutral red dye uptake test in HeLa cell.Isolated parietal cells were incubated with H.pylori(bacteria/cell=100∶1)for 2 h and 16 h,or BCF-P(100μg/ml)for 1 h and 12 h.Acid secretion from parietal cells was studied using 14C-aminopyrine(14C-AP)accumulation indirectly and H+-K+ ATPase α subunit mRNA expression was assessed using RT-PCR.Results (1)BCF-P containing vacuolating cytotoxin(VacA)with vacuolation activity on HeLa cells had positive result on neutral red uptake test.(2)The basal expression of H+-K+ ATPase α subunit mRNA could be detected in isolated parietal cells and 14C-AP accumulation was significantly increased in response to the stimulation of histamine with different concentrations for 30 min(P＜0.05).These results indicated that the isolated parietal cells retain relative intact acid secretion function.(3)The histamine(1.0×104 mol/L)stimulated acid secretion was inhibited sustainedly in response to H.pylori by 81% at 2 h and by 94% at 16 h(P＜0.05).However,H+-K+ ATPase α subunit mRNA expression was up-regulated in tlle acute period(2 h)and was down-regulated in the chronic period (16 h)by H.pylori(P＜0.05).(4)BCF-P significantly inhibited the histamine-stimulated acid secretion by 24% at 1 h and by 58% at 12 h(P＜0.05),and this inhibition was accompanied by the down-regulated expression of H+-K+ATPase α subunit mRNA.Conclusions Intact H.pylori and VacA secreted by H.pylori could directly inhibit histamine-stimulated acid secretion from parietal cells and this inhibition may be mediated by the down-regulated H+-K+ ATPase expression.

Objective To investigate the anatomical features, operative method and efficacy of internal fixation in the treatment of iutra-articular fractures of caleaneum via the sinus tarsi approach. Methods The pathway, branches distribution and anastomosis of perforating descending branch of peroneal artery were observed on 18 adult cadaveric lower limbs. A sinus tarsi approach was designed. From July 2001 to January 2008, 71 intra-articular calcaneal fractures in 68 patients were treated with open reduction and internal fixation via sinus tarsi approach at lateral sides of calcaneus. According to the Sanders classification, there were 26 type Ⅱ fractures, 32 type Ⅲ fractures and 13 type Ⅳ fractures. Results All patients were followed up for a mean period of 39.3 months (13-85 months), and the fractures were completely healed. There was a significant difference in the length, width and height of the calcaneus, Bohler angle and Gissane angle before and after operation (P < 0.01). According to Maryland Foot Score, the operative effect was excellent in 33 feet, good in 29 feet, fair in 6 feet and poor in 3 feet. Conclusion Open reduction and internal fixation via sinus tarsi approach is an effective method for minimally invasive treatment of intraarticular fractures of the calcaneus, with the advantages of good clinical results and causing minimal damage to soft tissues.

Objective To investigate the expression of neuronal extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and its significance after cerebral isehemia reperfusion in diabetic rats. Methods Seventy-two healthy adult SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operation, normal glucose with cerebral ischemia and diabetes with cerebral ischemia groups. Each group was redivided into ischemia 15 minutes and reperfusion 1, 3 and 6 h subgroups according to the different time points of ischemia reperfusion (n = 6 in each subgroup). Streptozocin was used to induce diabetes, and a global cerebral ischemia model of diabetic rat was established by the bilateral vascular occlusion combining with bloodletting, TUNEL and immunohistochemistry were used to observe neuronal apoptosis and the expression of the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 in hippocampal CA4 region. Results The incidences of neuronal apoptosis in hippocampal CA4 region for ischemia 15 minutes and reperfusion 1, 3 and 6 h in the diabetes with cerebral ischemia group were significantly higher than those in the normal glucose with cerebral ischemia group (P < 0. 05); the expressions of the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 at all time points in the diabetes with cerebral ischemia group were higher, and reperfusion 1 and 3 h were significantly higher than those in the normal glucose with cerebral ischemia group (P < 0.01). Conclusions ERK1/2 might involved in the mechanism of neuronal injury after diabetes aggravating cerebral ischemia-reperfusion.

Objective To investigate the potential mechanism of interleukin-1β(IL-1β)in H.pylori-related gastric carcinogenesis.Methods Human gastric cancer cell line(AGS),human gastric epithelial cell line(GES-1)and isolated parietal cells were treated with exogenous IL-1β(10 ng/ml)in the presence or absence of H.pylori(NCTC 11637).Cell proliferation and apoptosis were determined by MTT assay and flow cytometry,respectively. Expressions of cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2)mRNA and protein were examined using RT-PCR and flow cytometry,respectively.Acid secretion by parietal cells was tested using 14C-aminopyrine(14 C-AP) accumulation indirectly.H+/K+ ATPase α subunit mRNA expression was assessed using RT-PCR.Results The cell proliferation and H.pylori-related apoptosis in both GES-1 and AGS celL lines were stimulated and inhibited by IL-1β.IL-1β induced expression and upregulation of COX-2 mRNA in GES-1 and AGS cell lines,respectively.In addition,IL-1β continuously inhibited the ability of histamine-stimulated 14C-AP accumulation of isolated parietal cells accompanied by down-regulation of H+/K+ ATPase mRNA expression.Conclusions It suggests that IL-1β play an important role in H.pylori-related gastric carcinogenesis through two pathways:①to interfere gastric epithelial cell growth by up-regulating COX-2 expression,②to inhibit acid secretion from parietal cell by down-regulating H+/K+ ATPase expression.
