Objective To explore the temporal expressions of TIMP-1 and their relationship with injury time during electric injuris of hearts of rats.Methods Immunohistorichemical and image-analysis techniques were employed in 220V-electric injury of hearts during different time.ResultsWeak expression of TIMP-1 are deteced at 0.5h after electric injury,which increased subsequently,and peaked at 24~72h post-injury.Then decreased to pre-injury level at 12d.Conclusion The time-dependent expression of TIMP-1 during electric injury may be used for the estimation of injury time.

Objective To investigate the value of application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosis and treatment of leptomeningeal metastases from malignant solid tumors.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted depend on the radiological data of 63 patients who had been diagnosed as leptomeningcal metastasis of malignant solid tumors.Results All patients received brain MRI examination.26 patients underwent cervical or lumbar spine MRI examination.The MRI images showed nodular enhancement in the gyri and sulci,leptomeningeal linear enhancement,dura mater thickening and enhancement,ependymal enhancement,intraventricular metastasis,intraspinal metastatic nodules,communicating hydrocephalus,subdural hydroma and negative imaging.Ncuroimages of ependymal enhancenent,intraventricular metastasis and intraspinal implantation metastasis appeared in 5,7 and 9 patients with small cell carcinoma,respectively,which were higher than that of the other pathological types (P =0.002,P =0.009,P ＜ 0.000 1).Seizure occurred in 7 patients after intrathecal chemotherapy,of which 5 patients had pia mater linear enhancement.Among 33 patients treated with radiotherapy combined with intrathecal chemotherapy,3 patients had poor prognosis,of which 2 patients had negative imaging findings.The conditions of 25 patients were improved obviously after treatment,of which 21 patients showed different imaging remission in MRI re-examination.Conclusions The contrast MRI has an important assistant effect in diagnosis of leptomeningeal metastasis of malignant solid tumors.The MRI findings and clinical features are related with the pathological types.The pia mater linear enhancement indicates a high possibility of seizures after inthathecal chemotherapy,and it suggests that the preventive treatment should be given for such patients.MRI is not applicable to evaluate severity,prognosis and curative effect of the disease.

Objective To prepare osmotic pump-controlled release tablets of total flavones in Lysimachia clethroides.Methods Two components of the extract from L.clethroides,rutin and naringenin-7-O-glucoside were used to evaluate the release behavior of osmotic pump controlled release tablets.Single factor investigation was carried out on the membrane compositions and orifice variables,and uniform design was used to optimize the formulation of coating mambrane.Results The membrane weight,PEG400 content,and dibutyl phthalote(DBP) content were the main factors influencing the drug release,and based on 45% and 8.5% of cellulose acetate,respectively,to prepare osmotic pump-controlled release tablets could achieve the desired zero-order release profile.Conclusion The formulation and technology are simple and easy to be carried out.Osmotic pump-controlled release tablets have a stable drug release bahavior and a good reproducibility.

Aim To study the effects of dexamethasone(DXM)and peroxisome-proliferation activated receptor?(PPAR?)agonist pioglitazone on intracellular cytokines expression of T_H1/T_H2 and the mechanism of that in asthma model,and compare the difference between two drugs.Methods 24 Balb/c mice were divided into 4 groups randomly: control group,asthma group,DXM group,and pioglitazone group,with 6 mice in each group.The expression of T-bet and GATA3 of lung were detected using western blot,and the intracellular cytokines interluekin 4 and interferon ? expressions of CD~(4+)Tcell were measured using flowcytometry.Results Compared with control group,the level of the expression of T-bet of lung in asthma group increased significantly(P0.05),while both of GATA3 and T-bet decreased after DXM treatment,and the decreasing degree of GATA3 was more than that of T-bet.The results of flowcytometry indicated that the ratio of intracellular cytokines IL-4/IFN? of CD~(4+) T cell in asthma group was much higher than that of control group(P

Objective To analyze inducing factors of acute left heart failure(AHF) of emergency case.Methods According to different age and gender,the inducing factors of AHF of 211 patients were retrospectively analyzed.Results Infection(42.99%) was the most important inducing factors of AHF in all the four age-groups,but as for patients elder 80,the arrhythmias was also play an important part in inducing factors of AHF.The difference of inducing factors was found among the four age-groups.but the difference of inducing factors was not found between the two gender-groups. Conclusion Since the most important inducing factors of AHF of emergency case was infection,anti-infectives is important for preventing and controlling AHF.

AIM: To determine whether interleukin 4 and interleukin 4 receptor ? chain are associated with allergic asthma in children and to study the impact of such polymorphism upon plasma IgE.METHODS: Two polymorphism sites of IL-4 and IL-4R were studied by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).RESULTS: (1)The results showed that the IL-4 promoter-589 was not associated with children allergic asthma, however, the IL-4R ? chain 576RR genotype and R allele were significantly increased in the subjects with asthma in children compared with age-matched control subjects (?2=11.84, P

AIM: To study the effects of dexamethasone (DXM) on intracellular expression of TH1/TH2 cytokines and the mechanism of that during the development of asthma. METHODS: Eighteen BALB/c mice were divided into 3 groups at random: control group, asthma group, and DXM treated group, with 6 mice in each. The expressions of T-box expressed in T cells (T-bet) and GATA-binding protein-3 (GATA-3) in lung tissue were detected by Western blotting. The expressions of intracellular cytokines interleukin-4 and interferon-? in CD4+ T cell were measured by flowcytometry.RESULTS: The results of flow cytometry indicated that the ratio of intracellular cytokines IL-4/IFN-? in CD4+ T cells in asthma group was much higher than that in control group (P

Objective To investigate the effects of extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves EGb761 on 1-methy-l 4-phenylpyridium (MPP+)-induced injury in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells; To discuss its mechanism of action.Methods Cell culture method was used and SH-SY5Y cell damage model was induced with different concentrations of MPP+ to build Parkinson’s disease model in vitro. The experiment was divided into control group, MPP+ model group, low-, medium-, and high-dose EGb761 groups. The survival rate was determined by MTT assay, and the apoptotic rate was detected by flow cytometry according to AnnexinV apoptosis detection kit. The cell morphology was observed by inverted microscope. NO content in SH-SY5Y cells was detected by Nitric acid reduction method.Results Compared with the control group, the survival rate of SH-SY5Y cells decreased and the apoptotic rate and NO content increased in the model group (P<0.05); Compared with the model group, the survival rate of SH-SY5Y cells increased and the apoptotic rate and NO content decreased in the low-, medium- and high-dose EGb761 groups (P<0.05).Conclusion EGb761 can protect MPP+-induced SH-SY5Y cell from damage by the inhibition of the content of NO free radical.
