Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of the Mingmen eight array massage combined with compound lysine hydrochloride and zinc gluconate granules for the treatment of infantile diarrhea. Methods Totally 120 children with diarrhea met the inclusion criteria were divided into the treatment group, Western medicine group, and general massage group by random number table method, 40 cases in each group. All 3 groups were given dietary guidance and did moderate exercise. Western medicine group was administered orally for compound lysine hydrochloride and zinc gluconate granules, two bags per day for the aged 1–10, three bags per day for the aged >10. Treatment group was given the Mingmen eight array massage therapy based on Western medicine. General massage group received conventional massage therapy based on Western medicine, with four weeks as treatment course. 3 groups of patients were observed before and after treatment for salivary amylase, blood zinc value, urine D-xylose absorption and excretion test, TCM symptom score, and clinical efficacy were evaluated. Results There was statistical significance in the salivary amylase, blood zinc value, and urinary D-xylose absorption and excretion rate between before and after t reatment(P<0.05); after treatment, treatment group showed higher salivary amylase, blood zinc value, and urinary D- xylose absorption and excretion rate than the Western medicine group and general massage group (P<0.05); scores of diarrhea, loose stool, lassitude, lusterless complexion, and appetite reduction decreased compared with before treatment (P<0.05); after treatment, all integrals of treatment group were lower than Western medicine group and general massage group (P<0.05). The total effective rates of the treatment group, Western medicine group and general massage group were 92.50％ (37/40), 72.50％ (29/40), and 75％ (30/40) respectively. There was statistical significance among the three groups (P<0.05). Conclusion Mingmen eight array massage combined with compound lysine hydrochloride and zinc gluconic granules can effectively alleviate the clinical symptoms of patients with infantile diarrhea, and improve the level of laboratory parameters.

Objective To investigate the effects of tyrosol and farnesol on the transcription profiling of C.albicans biofilm by microarray analysis.Methods The standard strain of C.albicans,SC5314 were cultured into four groups (tyrosol treated,farnesol treated,tyrosol and farnesol co-treated,and untreated control).The cell suspensions of SC5314 were prepared and dispensed into polystyrene flasks to form biofilm.Then,the biofilms were collected at 6 h and 24 h respectively after culturing.RNA samples were extracted and synthesized into cDNA through reverse transcription.The genome arrays were scanned with a confocal LuxScanTM scanner and the images were then analyzed by using LuxScanTM 3.0 software (both from CapitalBio).Bioinformatics analysis of the data was carried out by comparatively analyzing S.cerevisiae gene in KEGG gene database.Results The cDNA microarray data showed that tyrosol and farnesol regulated biofilm formation by regulating the genes associated with biofilm formation such as hypha genes and yeast genes.Tyrosol positively regulated gene expression of C.albicans biofilm,while farnesol played negative role.There were striking differences in gene expression patterns between tyrosol or farnesol treated groups and the control.Tyrosol had no antagonistic effect to farnesol.Bioinformatics analysis showed that the differential gene expression was involved in biological process,molecular function process and cell component formation.These genes regulated the C.albicans biofilm formation by encoding proteins involved in the biological metabolism.Conclusion Tyrosol and farnesol influenced the formation of C.albicans biofilm through regulating gene expression which showed differences at different phases of biofilm formation.

Methods Forty-eight male rats were divided randomly into normal group, model group, drug group and electroacupuncture group, 12 rats in each group. The animal model was made by SC purified prostate protein twice with immunologic adjuvant, and the rats in electroacupuncture group and drug group were treated by electroacupuncture at Sanyin points and feeding Cernilton for 15 days. The changes of prostate weight, index, pathology and contents of IgG, expressions of IL-2 and IL-8 in prostate homogenate were observed. Results Compared with normal group, the prostate weight and index were significantly increased in model group (P<0.05), the content of IgG was significantly increased (P<0.05), cytokine IL-2 and IL-8 were highly expressed (P<0.05, P<0.01), prostate tissue’s morphology and structure were significantly impaired in model group. Compared with model group, the prostate weight and index were significantly decreased in electroacupuncture group after treatment (P<0.05 or P<0.01), pathological changes reduced significantly, the content of IgG decreased significantly (P<0.05), the expressions of cytokine IL-2 and IL-8 were significantly decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the pathological manifestation of chronic inflammation was significantly improved.

BACKGROUND:There are several routes for stem cel transplantation;however, it is stil unable to determine which one is the best. As for the different individuals with brain injury, the type of transplanted cel s, transplantation route and time wil affect the therapeutic effects.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of bone marrow mononuclear cel s transplanted via different approaches on neurological function of rats with traumatic brain injury.
METHODS:Bone marrow mononuclear cel s of rats were administered gradient centrifugation with Ficol lymphocyte separation medium, and were labeled with CFDA-SE in vitro as standby. Rat models of traumatic brain injury were established by the method of freefal . After successful establishment of rat models, bone marrow mononuclear cel s labeled with CFDA-SE were immediately transplanted into rats via injured area, lateral ventricle and internal carotid artery. One control group was designated for each transplantation route (bone marrow mononuclear cel s were replaced with the same volume of DMEM). The degree of neurological deficits was evaluated using mNSS scores at different time points after treatment. The brain tissue was harvested after the last neurobehavioral evaluation. The survival and migration of bone marrow mononuclear cel s in the injured area were observed under an inverted fluorescent microscope.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 7, 10, and 14 days after treatment, the mNSS scores of rats in al groups were al lower than those at 1 and 3 days (P<0.05). At 7 and 10 days, the mNSS scores of rats in the internal carotid artery transplantation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). At 14 days after treatment, the number of fluorescence-labeled cel s of rats in the internal carotid artery transplantation group was greater than that in the other groups (P<0.05) and these labeled cel s were widely distributed. The results demonstrate that the neurological function of rats can be improved by transplanting bone marrow mononuclear cel s via the internal carotid artery, and a large number of transplanted cel s can survive and migrate in the injured area.
