Acta Nutrimenta Sinica 1956;0(01):-
Weanling rats and mice were fed on an iron-deficient diet. By the end of the 4th week, the rats were sacrificed for the determination of immune function and the mice were infected with S. typhimurium. The rate of peripheral blood lymphocytes transformation, total serum complement activity (CH50) and splenic tissue cAMP levels in the iron-deficient rats were 26.3? 5.86%, 58.39?14.79u/ml and 0.93?0.48 pmol/mg respectively, but that in the controls were 38.3?4.61%, 75.17?19.51u/ml and 2.69?1.17pmol/mg respectively. The former were significantly lower than the latter. The serum hemolysin (HC50) and serum lysozyme in the iron-deficient rats were 330.62 ?21.90 and 29.50 ?16.85ug/ml respectively; and that in the controls were 353.24?29.77 and 30.08?10.39ug/ml respectively. The differences between these two groups were not significant. Gross histological changes were found in the spleen of the iron-deficient rats, but no changes in the thymus. After the intraperitoneal injection of S. typhimurium, the mortality of iron-deficient mice were significantly higher than the controls.

Objective To investigate the specific humoral immunity and the therapeutic effect of nasal tolerance with a dual analogue (Lys262-Ala207) in the patients with myasthenia gravis (MG). Methods The levels of serum anti-AChR IgG and anti-AChR IgG isotype were determined with ABC-ELISA in 39 MG patients before and after treatment with Lys262-Ala207 and also in controls. cAMP was measured at the same time. The clinical severity and prognosis of MG were evaluated with Xu′s clinical scoring system. Results There was different in total IgG content among all groups. However the IgG 2 content was lower after the treatment and that of control (P

[Objective]To evaluate the surgical results of spinal scoliosis in the elderly and to investigate the indications,surgical techniques and factors which may contribute to the outcome. [Methods]A retrospective study was held.Sixty-four patients≥65 years undergoing different kinds of operation for lumbar spinal scoliosis from Sep.2004 to Apr.2008 were recruited.The mean patient age at surgery was 69.2 years(61~75 years).[Results]There were a variety of treatment methods of degenerative scoliosis based on symptomatology and radiologic measurements of scoliosis and stenosis.Sixty-four patients were followed up for an average of 37 months.The average correction rate of scoliosis was 51.2% after operation.No case was found spinal cord injury.Clinical symptoms and functional tolerance for daily activities improved after surgery.Radiographic evaluation showed a reduction in the deformity on the frontal and sagittal planes.There were no infections,pseudoarthrosis,instrument related failures or reoperations in this series.[Conclusion]The surgical results of lumbar scoliosis in the elderly are better than to those reported for the general population.Carefully perioperative preparation is very important in the treatment of elderly patients with lumbar spinal scoliosis.

BACKGROUND:Percutaneous vertebraplasty is a new means for the treatment of vertebral compression fractures and bone metastases. The multiplaner reconstruction with digital substraction angiography (DSA)-Innova 3D plays an important role in guiding the percutaneous vertebraplasty puncture, which can effectively prevent the leakage of bone cement. OBJECTIVE:To explore the value of DSA-Innova 3D in the guidance of puncture of percutaneous vertebroplasty. METHODS:From March 2014 to September 2014, a total of 72 patients with 94 vertebras were selected for percutaneous vertebraplasty, of whom 36 (48 vertebras) with Innova 3D (experimentalgroup) and 36 (46 vertebras) without Innova 3D (control group). Spiral CT scan was performed in al patients to assess the distribution of bone cement. The imaging quality in the two groups was compared by Mann-Whitney U test. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:CT showed bone cement leakage occurred in 7 of the 36 patients in the control group. Leakages were into the lumber disc in two cases, paravertebral space in two cases, vertebral pedicle in onecase or veins in two cases. However, only one case of bone cement leakage was observed in the experimental group. With the guidance of DSA-Innova 3D, the experimental group had signficantly lower leakage and fluoroscopic time than the control group (P < 0.05). The multiplaner reconstruction with DSA-Innova 3D plays an important role in guiding the percutaneous vertebraplasty puncture, thereby effectively reducing the leakage of bone cement.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of scorpion’s proteins with different molecular weights on angiogenesis of the transgenic zebrafish. METHODS:The vascular fluorescence transgenic zebrafish models were established. Scorpion’s proteins were separated by ultrafiltration and ion exchange chromatography to obtain the scorpion protein fractions with different molecular weights (3-10 ku,>10-50 ku and>50 ku). The embryos of transgenic zebrafishes were cultured in the above 10,100 and 500 μg/ml scor-pion’s proteins. Intersegmental vessels of the transgenic zebrafishes were counted under the fluorescence microscope to optimize the most suitable scorpion’s protein molecular weight. The vessels were counted again with >50 ku scorpion protein component 1 and 2,so as to select suitable component.RESULTS:The >50 ku scorpion’s protein fraction component 1 with the mass concentration of 500 μg/ml had the highest inhibitory activity for the angiogenesis of the transgenic zebrafish,with inhibitory rate of 92.59%. CONCLUSIONS:Scorpion’s protein and its fractions have the activity of angiogenesis inhibition,which may be one of anti-cancer mechanisms of scorpion.
