Objective To study the best method of radiation protection shielding calculation for the gamma photon produced in positron annihilation.Methods With 18F as the typical of nuclide,different methods or literature about constant and the calculation of the TVL or recommended values were adopted to calculate and analyze the shielding thickness by lead as block material.Results The shielding thickness by the dose constant was calculated by point source model (0.142 μSv· m2· MBq-1 · h-1) and TVL of lead recommended by NCRP was the biggest:at the control area the unit thickness for lead shield was 7.562 × 10-4 mm· MBq-1 for one patient.While by the dose constant recommended by AAPM TG108 (0.092 μSv·m2 ·MBq-1 ·h-1) and lead TVL recommended by IAEA was the minimum.The unit thickness for lead shield at the control area was 4.982 × 10-4 mm · MBq-1 · patient-1,with difference of 36.2％.Conclusions The dose constant and the TVL value of lead from AAPM.TG 108 are recommended for the calculation.In shielding design attention should be paid to the distance protection,the separate toilet with shielding for patients,and the separate corridors beteen doctors and patients.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of ethanol extracts of Panax notoginseng on the tumor and the liver metastasis in experimental mice grafted with B16 melanoma. METHODS: B16 melanoma was transplanted in the spleen of C57BL/6 mice. The effects of different doses of ethanol extracts of Panax notoginseng on the inhibition rate of spleen tumors and the liver metastasis were observed respectively. RESULTS: The high-, medium-, and low-doses of the extracts and the interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha) can improve the quality of life of the experimental mice. The weights of spleen tumor were lower in the low- and medium-dose extracts-treated groups and the IFN-alpha-treated group than that in the normal saline (NS)-treated group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The liver metastasis was less in the low- and medium-dose extracts-treated groups and the IFN-alpha-treated group than that in the NS-treated group (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: The ethanol extracts of Panax notoginseng can improve the quality of life of the experimental mice and inhibit the growth of tumor and the liver metastasis.

Objective: To observe the clinical therapeutic effect of Tang Shen Ning(TSN,a prescription of traditional Chinese medicine)for curing the early stage of diabetic nephropathy(DN).Methods: Adopting random and double-blind controlled trial methods,several indexes were observed in terms of uric micro-amount albumin excretion rate,creatinine clearance,hemorheology and platelet function et al.Results: TSN could significantly reduce urinary albumin,glomerulus's hyper-filtration,improve blood stream transform and inhibit platelet aggregation.Conclusion: TSN could protect renal functions during the early stage of DN.

UL48 plays essential role in replication of MDV genome and interacts with UL36 as well as other MDV tegument proteins.To investigate the interaction between UL48 and UL36 during MDV oncogenisis,antibody against UL48 was prepared and characterized in current study.UL48 gene was amplified from MDV-Ⅰ genome and then subcloned into pTYB1 and pGEX-4T3 vectors for UL48 expression with induction of IPTG in BL21(DE3) E..coli cells.Chitin-sepharose and Glutathion-sepharose were,respectively,used to purify fusion protein intein-UL48 and GST-UL48.Four subcutaneous injections of intein-UL48 fusion protein were done on the lower back and the thigh of rabbit and then other three injections with an interval 10 days.The titer of antibody was measured by the sandwich ELISA with UL48 protein isolated from GST-UL48 after cleavage of thrombin.Western blot was carried out for specificity analysis of antibody against UL48 protein.The results suggested that UL48 antibody was succesfully prepared,and its titer was 1 ∶ 512 000.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the chemical constituents of the leaves of Aquilaria sinensis, and provide a certain of basis for the comprehensive uses of the plant of A. sinensis.

METHODThe chemical constituents were isolated by various column chromatographic method. The structures were identified by spectral analyses of NMR, MS, et al.

RESULTThirteen compounds were isolated and identified as 7-hyroxy-5, 4'-dimethoxy flovone (1), 5-hydroxy-7, 4'-dimethoxy flavone (2), luteolin-7-3',4'-trimethyl (3), isocorydine (4), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (5), triacontenoic (6), hentriacontane (7), alpha-stigmasterol (8), epifriedelanol (9), friedelan (10), friedelin (11), genkwanin (12), 5, 4'-dihyroxy-7, 3'-dimethoxy flovone (13).

CONCLUSIONCompound 4 was obtained from this genus for the first time, compounds 1, 6-11, 13 were obtained from this species for the first time.

OBJECTIVE To optimize the extraction technology of modified Tabusen- 2（MT-2），and to investigate inhibitory effects of the extract obtained by the optimal technology on osteoclast differentiation. METHODS The index components of MT- 2 process optimization were selected by using network pharmacology. Based on single factor tests ，the extraction technology of MT- 2 was optimized by Box-Behnken design-response surface methodology according to the comprehensive score of contents of above index components ，and then validated. RAW 264.7 cells were induced by receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand（100 ng/mL） to prepare osteoclast differentiation model. Inhibitory effects of MT- 2 extract（18.6，37.2，74.4 ng/mL）obtained by the optimal technology on osteoclast differentiation were investigated. RESULTS The index components screened by network pharmacology included chlorogenic acid ，terpineol diglucoside ，isochlorogenic acid A ，1，5-dicaffeoylquinic acid ，hydroxysafflower yellow A ， ginsenoside Rg 1 and ginsenoside Rb 1. The optimal extraction technology of MT- 2 was ethanol volume fraction of 60％ ，the solid-liquid ratio of 1 ∶ 14（g/mL），extraction time of 94 min and extraction times of twice. The average comprehensive score obtained by the three validation experiments was 95.50，and the relative error with the predicted value （95.75）was －0.26％. Compared with osteoclastic differentiation model cells ，the cells treated with MT- 2 extract prepared by the optimal technology were mostly mononuclear round cells ，and the number of osteoclasts decreased significantly （P＜0.05），its inhibitory effects tended to strengthen with the increase of drug concentration. CONCLUSIONS The optimal extraction technology of MT- 2 is stable and feasible. Obtained extract can inhibit osteoclast differentiation.
