AIM: To screen macroreticular resins for isolation and purification of flavonoids from the leaves of Diospyros kaki Linn (FLDK). METHODS: 8 kinds of macroreticular resins were assayed for their adsorbability and deadsorbability as well as the adsorption kinetics to FLDK. RESULTS: Polyamide and AB-8 resin were found with good adsorbability and deadsorbability as well as adsorption kinetics to FLDK. CONCLUSION: AB-8 resin and polyamide could be used for preparing high contents of FLDK. FLDK-P70, a flavonoid extract contained more than 77% of flavonoids was prepared from the extract of leaves of Diospyros kaki by polyamide adsorption column isolation.

Xenopus Paraxial Protocadherin (PAPC), which was initially identified in a screen for genes present in the Spemann organizer of Xenopus embryos, is required for gastrulation, somitogenesis and otic vesicle formation. In order to investigate its function in various developmental events, an antibody was prepared which could specifically recognize Xenopus PAPC. Glutathione S transferase (GST) expression system was used to express the fusion protein GST-PAPC. Rabbits were immunized with GST-PAPC Western blotting analysis of FL-PAPC transfected HEK 293T cells lysates, which could be specifically blocked by pre-adsorption of prokaryotic expressed GST-PAPC fusion protein. Furthermore, by using immunofluorescence analysis the polyclonal antibody recognized membrane-bound PAPC in FL-PAPC transfected 293T cells and Xenopus animal cap cells. By Western blotting analysis,the endogenous 150 ku PAPC protein was detected in Xenopus embryos using the anti-PAPC antibody. Take together it could be concluded that a polyclonal antibody specifically against Xenopus PAPC was developed.

Using of clearing zones on pachyman agar medium, there are 217 plant endophytic actinomycetes, producing ?-1,3-glucanase were screened. 45.6% of the strains produced ?-1,3-glucanase, in which the strains from cucumber are up to 38. The percentages of endophytic actinomycetes from different hosts produceing ?-1,3-glucanases were different. The percentage of the strains in Rhizoma Polygonatum produced ?-1,3-glucanases is the highest, up to 88.9%. The Inhibited effects of plant endophytic actinomycetes which produced extracellular ?-1,3-glucanases on mycelium growth of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum were detected in vitro. Cucumber endophytic actinomycete gCLA4 strain was screened out from 99 isolates, which can strongly inhibit the growth of S. sclerotiorum. The optimal ?-1,3-glucanases fermentation conditions of strain gCLA4 were investigated, they were pachyman 0.2%, peptone as nitrogen, pH 7~8 for 5 days. The ?-1,3-glucanases of strain gCLA4 had some inhibiting efficiency on 13 plant pathogens, in which inhibiting efficiency to Botryosphaeria dothidea was the strongest.

Objective To evaluate the antioxidant effect of hesperidin and its effect on transcription of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP 1) in rabbits with dietary atherosclerotic lesions. Methods (1) Low density lipoprotein (LDL) was isolated from healthy human plasma by sequential ultra centrifugation and oxidized by copper. The contents of malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured at different dosages of the drug and at different reaction time. (2) Atherosclerotic model of rabbits was established by feeding rabbits with high lipid diet and immune injury. A total of 18 rabbits were divided randomly into three groups: control group, model group, and hesperidin group ( n =6 in each group). Rabbits in the control group were fed with common diet, those in the model group with high lipid diet, and those in the hesperidin group with high lipid diet plus hesperidin. After 10 experimental weeks, blood samples were collected from the marginal ear veins for the detection of the contents of MDA and nitric oxide (NO). The rabbits were sacrificed for the isolation of the thoracic aorta. MCP 1 mRNA transcription in the thoracic aorta was detected by RT PCR. Results Hesperidin could significantly inhibit MDA production in a dose dependent manner in vitro ( P

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and treatment method for no midline shift-severe craniocerebral trauma accompanied with post-traumatic acute diffuse brain swelling (PADBS).Methods 60 PADBS patients were randomly divided into conservative treatment group and operation group,30 patients in each group.The operation group was treated with intracranial pressure monitoring by implantation of the probe and decompressive craniectomy,while the conservative treatment group received conservative treatment.The postoperative recovery was observed.Results The GCS scores of operation group postoperative 7d and 15d were (11.21 ± 2.24) and (12.88 ±2.31),which were obviously higher than (7.47 ± 1.51) and (8.19 ± 1.28) of the conservative treatment group (t =2.215,2.321,all P < 0.05).Postoperative long-term follow-up results indicated that,according to GOS score,63.3% patients in the operation group recovered well,which was significantly higher than 26.7% in the conservative treatment group.While the percent of patients with coma or dead was 6.7% and 10.0% in the operation group,which were significantly lower than the conservative treatment group (x2 =15.721,4.172,3.84,all P < 0.05).Conclusion In general,PADBS could not be cured easliy,the operation methods of using intracranial pressure monitoring and decompressive craniectomy based on conservative treatment could help to evaluate the trauma objectivly,detect the changes of disease earlier,treat in time and assess the prognosis accurately,all which would reduce the mortality.

Objective To localize the upper airway obstruction of patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS)with the Cinema Magnetic Resonance(Cine-MR) and fiber optic laryngoscope with Müller maneuver(FLMM)before operation and discuss the clinical application values.Methods Before operation, FLMM and Cine-MR were applied to 22 patients diagnosed as OSAHS by Polysomnography(PSG).Medical examinations conducted in this study from September 2015 to April 2016 to examine the obstruction of the soft palate region, the lingual region and epiglottis.Results There were complete agreements between the Cine-MR and FLMM at locating obstruction sites of the soft palate (n=22/n=22),and there were moderate agreements between the Cine-MR and FLMM in locating obstruction sites of the retroglottal region(n=13/n=6),epiglottal region (n=4/n=2)and multiple level(n=13/n=6), respectively.Conclusion For those moderate and severe OSAHS patients with multiple sites obstruction , the preoperative application of the Cine-MR and FLMM together will be better in locating the obstruction sites.

Observation revealed the abnormalities (increased CD 4 and Th, decreased Tc) in patients of Graves′ disease, and these abnormalities were not significantly adjusted after 6 weeks of treatment with methimazole (MMI), or with MMI and methotrexate (MTX), though the soluble interleukin-2 receptor and thyroid autoantibodies slightly decreased in both groups. However, the addition of MTX did not show any better effects than MMI alone in the treatment.
