Objective To explore the relationship between blood pressure and hemorrhagic cerebral infarction. Methods Retrospectively reviewed clinical data of 242 patients with acute cerebral infarction, then all patients with hemorrhagic cerebral infarction were selected. The distributions of different level of blood pressure (>180/110mm Hg;90/70~180/110mm Hg;<90/70mm Hg) were compared between the patients with or without hemorrhagic cerebral infarction, as the same, different prognosis were compared among the patients with hemorrhagic cerebral infarction based on the different level of blood pressure. Results Of the total patients with acute cerebral infarction,4. 1%(10) presented with blood pressure<90/70mm Hg,88. 0%(213) with blood pressure 90/70~180/110mm Hg and 7.9%(19) with blood pressure>180/110mm Hg. In all the patients,20 cases(8. 3%) with hemorrhagic cerebral infarction,among which,60.0%(12) patients with blood pressure>180/110mm Hg and with 7 cases died, 10.0%(2) patients with blood pressure<90/70mm Hg and with 1 case died,30.0%(6) patients with blood pressure 90/70~180/110mm Hg and with 2 cases died. The distribution of patients with blood pressure>180/110mm Hg in those two type of cerebral infraction were statistically significant (P=0. 000) ,the ratio seemed higher in patients with hemorrhagic cerebral infarction, and among the patients with hemorrhagic cerebral infarction, the distribution of prognosis were the same statistically significant based on the diffetent level of blood pressure, among which, patients with blood pressure>180/110mm Hg(P =0.041) or<90/70mm Hg(P =0.037) seemed like to have a higher mortality. Conclusion Severe high blood pressure(>180/110mm Hg) should be one of the high risk factors for patients with hemorrhagic cerebral infarction,when blood pressure>180/110 mm Hg or <90/70mm Hg happened in the pathogenesis, patients always be with poor outcome. So, making proper control strategy of blood pressure for patients with hemorrhagic cerebral infarction was with significance to defend its' happening and prognosis' improvement.

To study the effect of Tripterygium wilfordii glycosides and gestrinone on endometriosis and serum cytokine expression, 135 cases of endometriosis patients were divided into treatment group(n=69) and control group(n=68). The observation group was orally given with T. wilfordii glycosides, 20 mg, tid, for 4 weeks. Then, the dose decreased to 10 mg/time, tid. T. wilfordii glycosides combined with gestrinone capsule(2.5 mg) were given in the 1st and 4th day of a menstrual cycle. Later, the administration was fixed at two times every week. The course of treatment lasted for 3 months. The control group was treated with gestrinone capsule(according to the same intake method). The serum-related cytokine levels before and after treatment were determined, and the clinical efficacy was observed. The results showed the total effective rate of the observation group was 89.71%, which was obviously higher than that of the control group(74.63%), with statistically significant differences(P<0.05). After treatment, TDS showed varying degrees of decreases, with a better effect in the observation group (P<0.01). Before treatment, serum TGF-β, IL-10 and IL-4 level had no significant difference. After treatment, all of these cytokines decreased, particularly for the observation decreased(P<0.01). Before and after treatment, serum IL-17 had no obvious difference between the two groups. This study suggested that the integrated traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine has an obvious clinical efficiency in endometriosis. Its mechanism may be related to the effective regulation of cytokines.

Objective To investigate the effect of arsenic trioxide (ATO) on the growth inhibition of bcr-abl mutant cell lines in vitro and to explore its potential mechanism. Methods The growth inhibition of ATO on bcr-abl wild type cell lines (K562, KBM5 and 32Dp210) and imatinib(IM)-resistant cell lines (K562R, KBM5R, 32Dp210T315I, 32Dp210Q252H, 32Dp210Y253H, 32Dp210M351T and 32Dp210E255K) were measured by trypan blue exclusion. Apoptosis was assayed by AnnexinV and PI staining. Glutathione (CSH) levels were detected by DTNB colorimetry of Glutathione Assay Kit. Results ATO inhibited cell growth in both bcr-abl wild type and IM-resistant mutant type cells in a dose dependent manner. ATO significantly inhibited growth of bcr-abl point mutant cells compared with the corresponding wild type cells, and the IC50 of ATO in mutant cells was lower than that in wild type, while the IC50 in no point mutant cells K562R was not different compared with that in wild type cells K562. The GSH levels in bcr-abl point mutant cells were lower than that in the corresponding wild type cells(P =0.00106-0.0358) , but that in K562 was quite similar with K562R cells(P = 0.315). After depletion of intracellular GSH by using BSO, the growth inhibition of ATO in both bcr-abl point mutant cells and wild type cells was significantly enhanced. Conclusion The growth inhibition of ATO on bcr-abl point mutant cells is remarkably more effective than that on wild type cells, which may be related with intracellular GSH. ATO would be a potential therapeutic select against CML with bcr-abl point mutation including the T315I mutation.

AIM: To get high biological activity of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein -2 (rhBMP-2) expressed in Escherichia coli by the methods of refolding. METHODS: The rhBMP-2,expressed in Escherichia coli, was washed by Triton X- 100 and further purified by DEAE chromatography.The inclusion bodies were resolved in 8 mol/L urea, and were refolded and dimerized in the redox systems (reduced and oxidized glutathione). Finally, a one - step purification procedure based on the heparin affinity chromatography was implemented. The biological activity of purified rhBMP - 2 were tested by induction of the alkaline phosphatase activity in C2C12 cells. RESULTS: The rhBMP - 2 was expressed in Escherichia coli in a non - active aggregated form of inclusion bodies using a temperature - inducible expression system. The high - purified rhBMP - 2 was obtained in the form of inclusion bodies by several purification courses. The rhBMP - 2 was refolded and dimerized in the redox systems (reduced and oxidized glutathione) and a one - step purification procedure based on the heparin affinity chromatography was implemented to isolate the rhBMP - 2 dimers and monomers. The purified rhBMP - 2 dimers showed the higher biological activity than the commercial rhBMP - 2. CONCLUSIONS: The method achieved the refolding of rhBMP - 2 would be applied to the whole TGF - β superfamily because the BMP - 2 belongs to the superfamily. Meanwhile, the inexpensive,high yield rhBMP - 2 is suitable for clinic application.
