Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs 2010;41(11):1838-1842
Objective: To observe the protection of neuron nutrition active peptide (NNAP) on the Parkinson's disease (PD) rats and its effect on the microglias. Methods: 6-Hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) was used to prepare the PD rat model. Further, the effects of NNAP on the rotation behavior and the immunoreactivity of substantial nigra dopaminergic (DA) neurons and microglia cells were observed by behavior test and immunocytochemistry. Results: The results show that PD rats treated with NNAP [0.05 mg/ (kg·d), ip] for 7 d behaved the decreased rotation times compared to PD group obviously (P<0.01). Furthermore, in the lesion side of 6-OHDA rat, compared with the model group, the therapeutic rats revealed the obvious increased number and the optical density of DA neurons in 20 000 μm2 measure area (P<0.01); The obvious decreased number and the optical density of the microglia cells compared to PD group in the midbrain (P<0.01). Conclusion: The results suggest that NNAP could inhibit the immunoreactivity of microglia cells, which may involve in the protection function in PD rats.

Abstract? AlM: To observe the effect of combining partial reduction orthokeratology ( Ortho-K ) and spectacles on slowing myopic progressionin high myopic adolescent.? METHODS: Sixty - nine eyes of 36 high myopic adolescent ( aged 9 ~15 years ) with spherical equivalent refraction ≧-6. 00 diopters ( D) ( spherical component≧-5. 50D) were fitted with custom-made four-zone/five-curve Ortho-K lenses. The target of reduction was to achieve -5. 00D for both eyes. The residual refractive errors after at least one month of Ortho-K wear were corrected with single-vision spectacles for clear vision in the daytime. The unaided visual acuity ( UVA) , refractive error ( RE ) , axial length ( AL ) , and ocular health were assessed before the Ortho-K lens wear, and followed up for 2a after Ortho-K.?RESULTS: ( 1 ) Changes in UVA: The mean UVA was 0. 09±0. 05 at baseline before Ortho-K;the mean UVA was 0. 27 ± 0. 14, 0. 54 ± 0. 18, 0. 78 ± 0. 24, and 0. 81 ± 0. 19, respectively after Ortho-K wear for l night, 1wk, 1, and 3mo. The differences of UVA were significant with baseline (P<0. 05), and became stable 1mo after the treatment. (2) Changes in RE:The mean RE was -6. 82± 0. 71D at baseline before Ortho-K and -6. 86 ± 0. 77D after Ortho-K wear for 1a (P>0. 05 compared to baseline). The mean RE was-7. 11±0. 81D after Ortho-K wear for 2a, and the amount of myopia increased -0. 29 ± 0. 37D compared to baseline (P<0. 05). (3) Changes in AL: The mean AL was 26. 18 ± 0. 57mm at baseline before Ortho-K, and it was not significantly different (P>0. 05) from the AL after Ortho-K wear for 6mo (26. 19±0. 54mm) and for 1a (26. 21± 0. 47mm). The AL was 26. 37±0. 59mm after Ortho-K wear for 2a, and the mean increase was 0. 19 ± 0. 28mm compared to baseline (P<0. 05). (4) Grade 1 corneal staining was observed in some subjects at each visit. However, the staining was improved after lens cleaning, discontinuing lens wear, or applying artificial tears. No other adverse events were reported in all subjects during the 2a study.?CONCLUSlON:Combining partial reduction Ortho-K and spectacles completely slowed myopic progression in high myopic adolescent after receiving the treatment for 1a, and partially reduced myopia progression after 2a of treatment. No severe ocular complications were found throughout the treatment. The combination treatment appeared to be effective and safe, but its long-term effect needs to be further assessed.

7.5). Overall,the research demonstrates the effect of environmental parameters (temperature and carbon source) on AHL profile production by food-derived Pseudomonas. It lays the foundation for further investigation to elucidate the relationship between quorum sensing and food spoilage,and for the development of new food preservative by blocking the quorum sensing of food spoilage bacteria.

Three Gram-negative bacteria from commercial fresh fish were identified as Pseudomonas sp.,an important food spoilage bacteria, on the basis of 16S rDNA sequences.N-aeyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) were the important quorum sensing molecules and regulated the expression of many characteristics in a cell-density-dependent manner in Gram-negative bacteria.The AHL biosensor detection revealed that three isolates produced AHLs molecules and strains FML05-1 and FML05-2 produced two types of AHLs at least and the main signal mole- cules were N-3-oxo-octanoyl-homoserine lactone(N-3-oxo-C_8-AHL).ALso the amount of AHL in FML05-2 reached to the maximum at 12h throughout growth.This was first study of quorum sensing signal molecule AHLs produced by the pseudomonas from food and layed the foun- dation for new strategies of food preservation based on interfering in quorum sensing of spoilage bacteria.

[Objective]To investigate if allogeneic human serum(alloHS)could replace fetal bovine serum(FBS)for the expansion of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(hBMSCs)in vitro.[Method]Human BM-MSCs were isolated either from spongy bone residues obtained during hip surgery or from washed filters used during bone marrow graft processing for allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.We culture human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were cultivated using alloHS and FBS,then observe its growth character,antigen presentation and differentiation potency through condition medium directional induction were observed.[Result]Isolated MSCs were positive for the markers CD105,CD29 and CD44 and negative for typical hematopoietic and endothelial markers CD34,CD45,CD106 and HLA-DR.The choice of serum affected hMSCs at several different levels.Firstly,hMSCs in alloHS proliferated markedly faster than hMSCs in FBS.Secondly,hMSCs in FBS differentiated more rapidly toward mesenchymal lineages compared with hMSCs in alloHS.[Conclusion]hMSCs may be expanded rapidly in alloHS in the absence of growth factors,this may be a safely culture method suitable for clinical demand.
