Objective To study the effect of serum contained Erzhi Tiangui Granule on the secretion function of ovarian granulosa cells from primary senile mice. Methods The serum with decoction from primary senile mice was added to cultured granulosa cells and incubated for 48 h. Then the concentration of estradiol (E2), progesterone (P) and inhibin B (INHB) in cultured medium were measured by chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) and Sandwich ELISA respectively. Results The serum contained Erzhi Tiangui Granule could increase the secretion of E2, P and INHB. Conclusion Erzhi Tiangui Granule can improve the ovarian function of primary senile mice by regulating the secretion function of granulosa cells.

Objective To investigate the application validity of the adjusted norm of WAIS-RC in the identification of intellectual disability.Methods128 patients with mental retardation (MR) were chosen for identification of the intellectual disability, measured their full scale IQs (FIQ) according to the original norm, calculated their four-subtest short forms FIQ respectively by Tellegen way according to the original standard norm and the new adjusted norm, then compared and analyzed the outcomes.ResultsThe short forms FIQ according to the original and the new norm had high correlation to full forms FIQ (P<0.01). The average of the short forms FIQ was higher than full forms FIQ according to the original norm (P<0.01), showing no significant difference according to the new norm(P＞0.05). In severe intelligence defected group according to full forms IQ, the grade classification corresponding rate of short forms FIQ according to the new norm was 0.00%, as well as the original norm. That in medium and mild intelligence defected groups was higher than that of original norm(P＜0.01).ConclusionThe test validity of adjusted norm short forms of WAIS-RC is superior to the original norm, but not suitable for severe intelligence defected.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protein expression of ERK1/2,p-ERK1/2,HIF-1α and α-enolase in hypertrophic cardiomyocytes induced by ET-1 and explore the regulation mechanism of overexpression of α-enolase in hypertrophic cardiomyocytes.MethodsET-1-induced abnormal cardiomyocytes were used as model of cardiac hypertrophy.Cellsurface area, [<'3>H]-leucine incorporation and the actin staining were measured to determine the extent of hypertrophy. Cultured cardiomyocytes were divided into 4 groups at random, control group, PD98059 treated group, ET-1 treated group and PD980594- ET-1 treated group. The protein expressions of ERK1/2, p-ERK1/2,HIF-1α and α-enolase were detected by immunoblotting analysis.ResultsCompared with the control group , cell surface area and [<'3>H] leucine incorporation were increased in ET-1 treated group ((1350.7±107.5)μtm<'2> vs. (896.1±70. 2)μtm<'2> , P<0.05; (1387.9±14.8) dpm vs. (787.7±10.2)dpm,P<0.013. Actin staining showed that ET-1-treated cardiomyoeytes had more intense actin staining and clear cross-striations than did control group, which suggested that myocardial cell hypertrophy could be induced by ET-1 in WKY neonatal cardiomyocytes. After MEK 1/2 inhibitor PD98059 was used, the cell surface area and [<'3>H] leucine incorporation were decreased in PD980594-ET-1 treated group compared with ET-1 treated group[(907.0±92.5)μm<'2> vs. (1350.7±107.5)μm<'2>;(841.5±10. 5)dpm vs. (1387.9±14.8)dpm, both P<0.05], which suggested that myocardial cell hypertrophy could be regulated by ERK1/2 signal pathway. Immunoblotting analysis showed that the protein expressions of p-ERK1/2, HIF-1α and α-enolase increased after ET-1 treatment,while PD98059 as an inhibitor of the upstream kinase of ERK1/2 was used, the protein expressions of HIF-1α and α-enolase were partially inhibited.ConclusionsET-1 induces hypertrophic cardiomyocytes through ERK1/2 phosphorylation in cultured neonatal rat cardiac myocytes.ERK1/2 and HIF-1α signal pathway may play an important role in the overexpression of α-enolase in the hypertrophic cardiomyocytes.

Objective:To investigate the effect of silver diamine fluoride(SDF)on the bonding strength between dentine and glass ion-omer cement(GIC).Methods:1 2 extracted sound molars were prepared into dintine samples and distributed into sound dentine group and demineralized dentine group.According to the treatment methods,the samples in each group were respectively divided into 3 sub-groups:A(control group),B[coated with 38% Ag(NH3 )F2 ]and C(SDF treatment with additional lighting-curing)(n =20).Then a hand-mixed conventional glass ionomer cement Fuji IX was placed on the dentine surface.After 24 h,micro tensile bond strength test and scanning electron microscope (SEM)analysis were conducted.Results:The bonding strength of demineralized dentine was higher than that of sound dentine(P <0.01 ).SDF with additional lighting-curing treated dentine showed a higer bonding strength value than only SDF treated dentin(P <0.01 ).Conclusion:SDF may improve the bonding between dentine and GIC.

Objective To evaluate the clinicopathological features,treatments and prognostic factors of male breast cancer (MBC) patients.Methods Clinical data of 102 MBC patients with histopathology confirmation at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Results All 102 cases got follow-up.The follow-up rate was 100％.The follow-up period was 3-279 months.The mean follow-up period was 65 months.During the follow-up period,recurrence was found in 21 cases,metastasis occurred in 28 cases (including pulmonary metastasis in 8,osseous metastasis in 7,hepatic metastasis in 9,brain metastasis in 3,and soft tissues and adrenal gland metastasis in 1).The 5-year disease free survival rate was 54.3％ and the 5-year overall survival rate was 72.8％.Univariate analysis showed that tumor size,axillary lymph node status,TNM stage,chemotherapy influenced the disease free and overall survival.Multivariate Cox regression shows that axillary lymph node status (P =0.085)was the independent prognostic factor of disease free survival for MBC.Tumor size(P =0.041)and axillary lymph node (P =0.024) status were independent prognostic factors of overall survival for MBC.Conclusions Early diagnosis and comprehensive treatment strategy consisting of radical mastectomy is essential to improve the survival of patients with MBC.

Objective To investigate the effects of electroacupuncture at Sanyinjiao (SP6) and Yinlingquan (SP9) on muscle repair in the gastrocnemius muscle damaged rats and its possible mechanism. Methods 30 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into blank group (n=10), model group (n=10) and electroacupuncture group (n=10). The latter 2 groups were modeled with gastrocnemius muscle crush injury. The electroacupuncture group received electroacupuncture at Sanyinjiao and Yinlingquan for 14 days. Their gastrocnemius was observed with HE staining, and the expressions of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in gastroc-nemius tissues and the serum were determined with immunochemical assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results Compared with the model group, there was less damage in the electroacupuncture group, with more expression of bFGF and IGF-1 in tis-sues (P<0.01) and serum (P<0.05). Conclusion Electroacupuncture can promote muscle repair after gastrocnemius muscle damage in rats, which may be related to the increase of the bFGF and IGF-1 expression in gastrocnemius tissue and serum.

The study aimed to establish a population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PPK/PD) model of warfarin. PCR-RFLP technique was used to genotype the CYP2C9 and VKORC1 polymorphisms of 73 patients. RP-HPLC-UV method was used to determine the 190 plasma concentrations of warfarin. Application of NONMEM, the clinical information and 263 international normalized ratio (INR) monitoring data were used to investigate the effect of genetic, physiological, pathological factors, other medication on clearance and anticoagulant response. The final model of warfarin PPK/PD was described as follows: CL = θCL · (WT/60)θWT · θCYP · eηCL (if CYP2C9*1/*1, θCYP = 1; if *1/*3, θCYP = 0.708); EC50 = θEC50 · θVKOR · eηEC50 (if VKORC1- 1639AA, θVKOR = 1; if GA, θVKOR = 2.01; V = θV; K(E0) = θK(E0); Emax = θEmax; E0 = θE0 · eηE0. Among them, the body weight (WT), CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotype had conspicuous effect on warfarin PK/PD parameters. The goodness diagnosis, Bootstrap, NPDE verification showed that the final model was stable, effective and predictable. It may provide a reference for opitimizing the dose regimen of warfarin.
