Objective To identify the expression of complement regulatory protein CD46, CD55, and CD59 on primary murine pallium astrocytes and the effect of inflammatory factors on it in order to lay the foundation for studying the complement system in AD. Methods The primary murine astrocytes were cultured and purified. The expression of CD46, CD55, and CD59 on the levels of mRNA and protein was assayed by immunofluorescence before and after the stimulation of LPS and IFN-?. Results The expression of CD59 mRNA was confirmed, but the expression of CD46 and CD55 was indefinite. There was no significant difference between stimulation and non-stimulation groups. Immunofluorescence results indicated that CD59 was positive, while CD46 and CD55 were weakly positive. Conclusion Protectin CD59 expresses copiously on primary murine astrocytes, which presumably protects astrocytes from the lysis of complement.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of the traditional Chinese medicine Yifei Kangliu (YFKL) Oral Liquid on the proliferation, cell cycle and protein-nucleic acid synthesis of murine Lewis lung cancer cell and human lung adenocarcinoma cell line SPC-A-1. METHODS: The inhibiting rates of tumor growth were calculated by weighing the weight of tumor inoculated in vivo, combined by counting cancer cells in vitro. The ratio of the cell cycle and exponents of DNA, RNA, and protein were measured by flow cytometry (FCM). RESULTS: The inhibiting rate of tumor growth in the treated group with YFKL Oral Liquid was 30.38% (P<0.05). The proportion of cells in S phase of the treated groups with YFKL Oral Liquid was lower than that of the control group. In the group with most significant result, 72% of the cells were stagnated in G0/G1 phase. The inhibiting rates of DNA, RNA and protein in murine Lewis lung cancer were 7.4%, 23.73% and 23.31% respectively. In SPC-A-1 cell line, the inhibiting rates were 9.3%, 10.1% and 14.7% respectively, demonstrating amplified effects on lower levels. CONCLUSION: YFKL Oral Liquid significantly inhibited the proliferation of murine Lewis lung cancer cell and human lung adenocarcinoma cell line SPC-A-1 by blocking the cancer cells entering the proliferative phase resulted from its inhibition of DNA.

Using the immunohistochemical and immunoelectron microscopic methods, the localization and pattern of vasoactive intestinal polypeptidergic nerves in the wall of cerebral vessels were investigated. The results revealed that the VIP-like immunoreactive (VIPLI) fibres were located in the adventitia or at the adventitia-media border. No synaptic contacts were identified among the nerve terminals or between nerve terminal and smooth muscle cell. VIPLI terminals directly apposed to the smooth muscle cells with a distance of 100 nm.The observations mentioned above indicate that there is peptidergic innervation in the wall of the cerebral vessels besides traditional adrenergic and cholinergic innervations. The regulatory function of VIP-containing nerves to the cerebral vessels may be performed by affecting the smooth muscle directly through the nonsynaptic release. In addition, present study identified and discussed the distribution and function of substance P(SP) in the cerebral vessels.

Objective To discuss the application of spiral CT angiography in postoperative re-examination of lower limb artery stent implantation. Methods During the period from March 2012 to March 2014 at the Affiliated Nanjing Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, CT angiography was carried out in 67 patients who had received stent implantation for arteriosclerotic occlusion of lower limb. The diseases involved 78 lower limbs, and a total of 85 stents were employed. The volume rendering (VR), maximum intensity projection (MIP), multi-planar reformation (MPR) and curved surface reconstruction (CSR) were performed to stereoscopically display the lesion’s anatomy as well as the implanted stents, and the imaging manifestations were compared with the clinical symptoms and DSA findings. Results Successful examination was accomplished in 65 patients (81 stents in total), and clear images were obtained. Of the 81 stents, no stenosis was seen in 43, Ⅱ - Ⅳ grade stenosis in 32 and complete occlusion in 6. The results were closely correlated with the clinical symptoms. The CT angiography manifestations in 31 patients (34 stents in total) were compared with their DSA performed in two weeks, and the results showed that the stenotic degrees of three stents judged by CT angiography were not consistent with those judged by DSA. The consistent rate of CT angiography was 91.2% when taking DSA as the standard. Conclusion Lower limb arterial CT angiography examination is a safe and non-invasive technique, it can clearly display the stent inner canal. Therefore, this technique is of great value in postoperative re- examination of lower limb artery stent implantation.
