Objective To explore the effect of the different doses of oxytocin(OXT) on stress model aggressive behaviour in Wistar rats.Methods According to random number table,40 pregnant rats were divided into experimental stress groups (A, B, C) and control group(D) with 10 samples in each group.Before forced swimming test, rats in experimental groups (A, B, C)were given OXT via intraperitoneal injection with 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg,2.0 mg/kg;rats in group D were given equal volume of normal saline in the same way.At the 3rd day all rats were tested with maternal aggression,including mothers' following indices as total aggression times,biting times,pinning times,attack latency and duration of attack.Elevated plus maze (EPM) test was applied to analyze the behavioral changes.Results In terms of the duration of attack and attack latency,the indexes of group A and group D were significantly different from relevant data ((147.60±23.92) s and(79.70±9.88) s, P＜0.05), while other indexes had no difference(P＞0.05).The duration of attack and attack latency had a significant difference ((3.10±0.87) times, (13.60±5.14)times, (91.30±9.74)s and(167.20±30.02) s, P＜0.01) between group B and group D except total aggression times(P＞0.05).Group C and group D in given indexes had significant differences showing (6.40± 1.34) times, (15.10±4.35) times, (23.70±3.46) times, (49.80± 5.53) s and (215.60± 39.55) s (P＜0.01).Group A and group B in given indexes had significant differences (P＜ 0.05);and group B and group C had a significant difference (P＜0.01)except pinning times(P＞0.05).In EPM ,the open arm entry ratio and the open arm time ratio of both group A and group D were significantly different from respective percentage (0.47±0.13) and (0.13±0.05) (P＜0.01).The significant difference was found in group B and group D(P＜0.01);group A and group B had a statistical difference(P＜0.05);there was no difference in both groups in open arm time ratio(P＞0.05).Conclusion Oxytocin potentially mediates maternal aggression by attenuating stress, and improves the intimate bonding between mother and pups,which means dose dependency of OXT in this process.

Objective To investigate the distribution of weak D and Del phenotype in unrelated blood donors with negative Rh (D). Methods Four hundred and nineRhD (-) unrelated donors were screened by the saline agglutination method. Type weak D was detected by the indirect antiglobulin test, and type Del was detected by absorb radiation method. Results In 409 RhD (-) samples, 27 cases (6.61%) of type weak D were checked out, and 61 cases (14.91%) were type Del and 321 cases (78.48%) were corroborate for RhD (-), In the confirmed RhD (-) blood donors, phenotype ccee was most (49.14%), followed by Ccee (23.47%), People with phenotype ccEe accounted for 4.16%in type weak D, followed by Ccee (1.71%). Ccee accounted for 10.02%in type Del, and Ccee accounted for 1.71%. Conclusion RhD (-) donors screened by regular testing should adopt a more sensitive test for verifing type weak D or Del. In order to ensure the security of blood transfusion, people with type weak D and Del should be regarded as RhD positive blood donors, and the RhD negative people deemed to be recipients.

Objective To investigate whether the splenic metastasis of B16 melanoma cells in C57BL/6 mice occur through the blood.Methods Cultured B16 melanoma cells were collected,adjusted into 1?10~7/ml and inoculated into the left armpit of C57BL/6 mice,200 ?l each.After 15 days,the mice were sac- rificed and metastasis was examined in various tissues and organs by HE stain.1.5 % Evan Blue(EB),2 ml/kg, was administered to normal C57BL/6 mice through the tail vein,and the region stained blue was compared with that of metastasis.Results All of 12 mice inoculated were burdened with melanoma.Splenic metastasis occurred in 9 of them,among which 3 were accompanied by lung metastasis,and all of 9 mice showed differ- ent degree of local lymph node metastasis.The dorsal 1/4 part of the positive spleen was stained black by the metastatic tumor cells.Under the microscope,distribution of the metastatic tumor cells in the spleen was scat- tered,their growth inhibited,and maturation accelerated.The region stained blue by EB also located at the dorsal 1/4 part of the spleen,which was almost the same as the positive part of metastasis.Conclusions Metastasis of B16 melanoma cells in C57BL/6 miee occurs earlier in the spleen than in other organs,and this metastasis is achieved most possibly through the blood.

Objective:To explore the levels of serum adiponectin,insulin growth factor Ⅰ (IGF-Ⅰ) and prealbumin in preterm infants,and analyze their correlation with preterm EUGR infant.Methods:321 cases of preterm infants who were born in our hospital and transferred to neonatal department in 24 hours from January,2014 to January,2016 were enrolled in the present study.According to the weight at discharge,they were divided into the EUGR group and the non EUGR group,the growth and development as well as the levels of serum adiponectin,IGF-Ⅰ and PA in the two groups were compared.Results:The occurrence rate of EUGR was 55.76％ (179/321) in the 321 cases ofpreterm infants;the weight of EUGR group was significantly lower than that of the non EUGR group at 42 th days and three months after birth(p＜0.05).The SDS of both groups were all negative,and that of EUGR group was significantly lower than non EUGR group (p＜0.05).The levels of serum adiponectin,IGF-Ⅰ and PA of both groups were significantly lower than the control group at seventh days of birth,and the PA level of EUGR group was significantly lower than non EUGR group (p＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the serum adiponectin and PA levels between 7 days and 14 days in EUGR group (P ＞ 0.05),however,the serum adiponectin and PA levels in the non EUGR group was obviously increased and significantly higher than that of the EUGR group (p ＜ 0.05).The level of IGF-Ⅰ in both groups keep unchanged during two weeks (P＞0.05).Conclusion:The lower levels of serum adiponectin,IGF-Ⅰ and PA were closely related to the EUGR of preterm infants,which could be used as biochemical indexes to early diagnosis of EUGR.

This study is to investigate the therapeutic effect of syringin on adjuvant arthritis (AA) in rats and its mechanisms. Complete Freund's adjuvant (FCA) was used to induce AA in rats. Secondary paw swelling of AA rats was measured with volume meter. Pain response and polyarthritis index were scored. Meanwhile, splenic lymphocyte proliferation response induced by concanavalin A (ConA) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was examined with MTT assay. IL-2 production of splenic lymphocytes and IL-1 beta, TNF-alpha production of peritoneal macrophage (PM phi) were estimated by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The secondary inflammation of AA rats appeared on the 14th day after injection of FCA. Syringin and tripterygium glycosides (TG) were given by intragastric administration for 16 days from the 14th day. Treatment of AA rats with syringin and TG from the 22th day significantly attenuated the secondary hind paw swelling, as well as relieved the pain response and the polyarthritic symptoms of the whole body as compared with that of the AA model group. The suppressed lymphocyte proliferation and IL-2 production of splenic lymphocytes in AA rats were reversed by treatment with syringin. Meanwhile, syringin remarkably down-regulated IL-1 beta, TNF-alpha productions from PM phi. These results indicate that anti-inflammatory effects of syringin on AA rats are mediated by modulating the immune function of abnormal cells and the balance of cytokines.

OBJECTIVE: To probe into the status quo and the tendency of the application of intravenous infusions. METHODS: Data on the application of intravenous infusions in one of the tertiary Grade A comprehensive hospital in 1996, 1999, 2002 and 2004 were analyzed statistically. RESULTS: The variety of infusion, the total quantity and the total amount of money of infusions increased year by year,the total consumption sum of infusions accounted for 10% of that of the whole year drugs; the majority of which were the consumption of nutritional and dielectric medicines, of which, glucose and sodium chloride injections accounted for 74% of the total; the infusion of treatment type increased fast, much as in cases of anti - infec-tives; the drug expense for each bottle of infusion increased year by year, the amount of money involved in infusion drugs accounted for 60% of the total year round drug consumption sum. CONCLUSION: There is an upward trend in both the quantity and consumption sum of infusions.

Aim To explore the neuroprotective effects and possib le mechanism of bellidifolin on focal cerebral ischemia in rats.Methods Focal ce rebral ischemia was induced by permanent occlusion of the proximal portion of ri ght middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). A neurological examination was perf ormed on each rat 4 hours,24 hours after ischemia by the method of Berderson .T he infarcted size was measured by 2,3,5-triphenrytetrazolium chloride(TTC) st aining technique at 24 hours post-ischemia.Effect of bellidifolin on intercellu lar adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and B lymphocyte myeloma (Bcl-2) immunoreact ive positive cells in peri-infarct region following ischemia and the histological neuronal changes were observed by means of immunohistochemical staining and H E staining.Result Bellidifolin significantly reduced infarc- ted size and improved the neurological deficit in rats .Bellidifolin produced effects of reduction in expression of ICAM-1 and upregulation of antia poptotic protein Bcl-2 on focal cerebral ischemia.Conclusion B ellidifolin has neuroprotective effects on focal cerebral ischemia in rats by or al administration.Mechanism of neuroprotective effects is related to downregulat ion of ICAM-1 and upregulation of antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2 on focal cerebr al ischemia.
