2.Effects of thyroid hormone on the synaptophysin expression of the developing rat brain
Chinese Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism 2010;26(11):948-953
Objective To study the effects of thyroid hormone (TH) on synaptophysin (syn) expression in rat cortex and hippocampus during developing period. Methods The experimental animals were divided into four groups: (1) Hypothyroidism group: the pregnant maternal rats had been given 0.02% methimazole(MM)water since 5 days, the infant rats suffered from innate hypothyroidism. (2)T4 substitution group: innate 0 days. (4)Normal control group: The pregnant rats were given a normol diet and water, yielding infant rats used as normal matched control. The expression of synaptophysin mRNA were measured by in site hybridization. Results (1) In the normal control group synaptophysin expression showed a characteristics layer distribution in the cortex and hippocampus. The expression was very low at O day, the peak of expression was at 4 days. During the following days, the expression was reduced gradually, reaching nearly the level in the adulthood by 30 days. (2)Synaptophysin expressions in hypothyroidism group were significantly lower than those in normal control group(P<0. 01). In hypothyroidism group the peak of synaptophysin expression was delayed by 3 days, attaining the high peak on 7 days. (3) Synaptophysin expressions in T4 substitution group were significantly higher than those in hypothyroidism group at 4 days, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, and 30 days, but were still lower than the levels in normal group(P<0.05 or P<0.01, except 7 days synaptophysin expression at hippocampus DG,P>0.05). (4)Synaptophysin expressions in T4 hyperthyroidism group were significantly higher than those in normal control group at 14 days、21 days、30 days(P<0.05 or P<0. 01). Conclusion The results suggested that reduced thyroid hormone, T4 substitution, and T4 hyperthyroidism led to the changes of synaptophysin expression in the rat cortex and hippocampus, resulting in an adverse effect on synapses occurrence and related nerve circuit establishment,with appearance of peerless neuronal place or mistaken nerve thoroughfare, thus hindering the development and function of the brain. Timely T4 substitution therapy is an important way to correct the disturbance in synapses development of the central nervous system due to deficient thyroid hormone.

International Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2009;31(5):472-473
The TCM theory of XueyuYundu believes that blood stasis and poison is the fundament of endometriosis. Long term of blood stasis may convert to poison and further aggravate the blood stasis. This article has summarized literatures about poison stasis syndrome and blood stasis syndrome. On this basis, we introduced a self-made prescription, QuyuJiedu Decoction, and the theoretical and laboratory study progress of this decoction, for the purpose of providing a new method for treating endometriosis.
5.Excretion and clinical value of fecal calprotectin in preterm infants during the first two weeks of life
International Journal of Pediatrics 2014;41(2):198-201
Objective To determine the time course of fecal calprotectin (FC) excretion in preterm infants in the first two weeks of life and to identify influencing factors of FC levels.To explore whether FC may be an useful marker for the identification of gastrointestinal conditions in preterm infants.Methods FC concentration was measured using ELISA in 141 samples (50-100 mg)obtained from 47 preterm infants(gestational age less than 32 weeks or birth weight less than 1 200 grams)at birth,on day 7 and on day 14(The following was called FC1,FC2 and FC3 level for short).Results FC3 level was significantly higher than FC1 and FC2 levels (P <0.05),there were no significant differences between FC1 and FC2 levels in the 47 preterm infants(P > 0.05).The FC1 level in infants whose mothers had antenatal infection was significantly higher(P < 0.05).The FC2 level was negatively correlated with the antibiotic courses(r =-0.325,P < 0.05).The FC2 level in infants with feeding intolerance was significantly lower than that in infants with feeding tolerance(P < 0.05).The FC2 level in infants with feeding tolerance and the FC3 level in infants with feeding intolerance were positively correlated with the volume of enteral feeds,respectively (r =0.433,0.479,P < 0.05).Contusion Antenatal infection and postnatal enteral feeds may lead to an increase in the excretion of FC in preterm infants.FC level was associated with enteral feeding and may be a useful marker for evaluation of gastrointestinal function in preterm infants.
