Objective To explore the reversion of astragaloside and NMDA receptor antagonist against the hyperphosphorylation of protein Tau induced by fetal intrauterine distress in neonatal rats.Methods The analysis of variance of factorial design was setted up two intervention factors which were fetal intrauterine distress (two levels:no disposition;a course of fetal intrauterine distress)and the drugs (three levels:iv Saline;iv astragaloside;iv MK -801).When the neonatal rats grew to 12weeks,the hippocampus was removed from the neonatal rats.Detected the content of glutamate in the hippocampus of rats by high performance liquid chromatography.The expression of protein Tau which includes p -AT8Ser202 and GSK -3β1H8 in the hippocampus of rats were detected by the methods of immunohistochemistry staining.Results Fetal intrauterine distress could significantly up -regulate the content of glutamate,which was not affected by MK -801,in the hippocampus of neonatal rats which was reduces by the astragaloside (P <0.05).And both influences presented subtracting effects (P <0.05).Fetal intrauterine distress and the drugs do not affect the total protein Tau in the hippocampus of rats (P <0.05).Fetal intrauterine distress could up -regulate the hyperphosphorylation of protein Tau in the hippocampus of neonatal rats which could be reduced by astragaloside and MK -801 (P <0.05).And the influences between fetal intrauterine distress and the drugs presented subtracting effects (P <0.05 ).Conclusion Our results indicate that fetal intrauterine distress reduce the hyperphosphorylation of protein Tau in neonatal rats though up -regulating the content of glutamate.GSK-3βis the key protein in this signaling pathway.

·Corneal neovascularization ( CNV) is one of the most important causes that affecting corneal transparency, and it is a high risk factor of allogeneic corneal graft rejection. lt has become a research focus for the regulation of CNV. microRNAs are a class of endogenous non-protein-coding micromolecule RNAs which play a critical role in regulating a series of life process.Researches in recent years show a close correlation between microRNA and CNV.ln this article we reviewed the recent advances in these researches.

Objective: To explore eye tracking movements of patients with depression.Methods:Thirty-one patients with depression were tested by tracking of exploratory eye movement (Type-Ⅳ) before and after treatment (mean interval 34?8 days), at the same time HAMD was applied. Thirty-one normal controls were tested by tracking of exploratory eye movement either.Results:There were significant differences of discriminant analysis between the results of patients and controls (0.52?1.58,0.79?1.44, vs.-1.00?0.85,t=4.40, 5.80, P0.05);Conclusion:There is statistical difference in exploratory eye tracking movements of depressive patients and that of controls. After depression improved, no significant changes were noted between the main indexes of eye tracking movements of the first test and that of the second test.

Objective To have a general picture the history and existing problems of independent clinical labs in China, for the purpose of building a supervision mechanism for such novel clinical institutions-clinical labs. Methods By way of the nationwide network of clinical labs, ICLs in China were surveyed with written questionnaires and field check. Results ICLs have grown into a greater and diversified scale thanks to the development of China's economy and laboratory technology. However,such vulnerabilities as unbalanced staff ratio, full-range quality control bugs, cutthroat competition,asymmetrical information disclosure, and bio-safety have loomed large in the meantime. Conclsion It is time to formulate a stricter industry access system and appropriate regulatory modes; ICLs should take a good care of the "Four relations" in their development, and health regulators should play a tighter role in the "Four supervisions". All these aim at better sharing medical resources, and building a win-win environment for the people, hospitals and ICLs.

A yeast strain KM12 , which can convert conjugated anthraquinone of rhub arb to free anthraquinone , was screened. And it is identified as Kluyveromyces marxianus by 26S rDNA. The percentage of free an-thraquinone in total anthraquinone of rhub arb as an indicator was used to investigate the effect of culture medium component and fermentation processing conditions, such as seed age, fermentation time and liquid volume on con-version of conjugated anthraquinone by KM12. The optimal fermentation medium was determined by orthogonal test L9(43) and the composition (%) is yeast extract 1, glucose 2, and rhubarb 2. The 5% (V/V) of the seed culture inoculated 36-48 h was inoculumed to fermentation medium in shake flask to ferment at 30℃, 200 r?min-1 for 4 days. TLC analysis showed most of conjugated anthraquinone decomposed or converted into free anthraquinone in fermented rhub arb . It was concluded that the side effect of severe diarrhea caused by Chinese medicine rhub arb can be alleviated through fermentation processing by KM12 strain .

Objective To investigate the effects of periplocin from Cortex Periplocae (CPP) on apoptosis of human lung cancer A549 cells and expression of survivin, and demonstrate its anti-tumor effect and the possible mechanism. Methods Inhibitory effect of CPP at different concentrations (1. 25, 2. 50, 5. 00, 10. 00, 20. 00 ng·mL-1 ) and for different time length (24, 48, 72 h) on A549 cell proliferation was tested by MTT method. Apoptosis rate of A549 cells treated with CPP at different concentrations (2. 50, 5. 00, 10. 00 ng·mL-1 ) were measured using flow cytometry (FCM) for 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 h, respectively. The morphological and ultrastructural changes of the apoptosis cells were observed by acridine orange/ ethidium bromide (AO/ EB) staining and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The effects of CPP on mRNA and protein expression of apoptosis associated gene survivin were assessed by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Results CPP could significantly inhibit the growth of A549, and the inhibition rate reached (93. 46±2. 35)% . The results of FCM showed that the apoptosis rate of A549 cells treated with CPP was increased significantly as compared to the control group ( P<0. 05). Meanwhile, typical apoptotic peaks were detected. The characteristic morphological changes of apoptosis were observed in A549 exposed to CPP, including cell shrinkage, the nuclei became yellow-red by AO/ EB staining, and typical ultrastructural changes, including nuclear chromatin condensation along the nuclear membrane, vacuolar degeneration of cytoplasm observed by TEM. The result of RT-PCR indicated that survivin mRNA expression decreased obviously in A549 cells exposed to CPP. The protein expression of survivin in A549 cells treated with 10. 0 ng·mL-1 CPP(0. 251±0. 012)was weaker than that in control group(0. 928±0. 016). Conclusion CPP can induce apoptosis in human lung cancer cell lines A549, and the probable mechanism is related to the down-regulation of survivin mRNA and protein.

Purpose To investigate the expression of Periostin and VEGF protein in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma tissue and their significance. Methods Immunohistochemical staining (SP method) was used to detect Periostin and VEGF expression in 130 cases of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and 130 cases of normal esophageal mucosa tissues. Results There was a significantly difference between esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and normal esophageal mucoma ( P<0. 05 ) . The expression of Periostin was related to the depth of invasion and the metastasis of lymph node (P<0. 05). A dramatic correlation has been found in the expression of VEGF to the degrees of differentiation, the depth of invasion and the metastasis of lymph node (P<0. 05). The expression of Peri-ostin was also positively correlated with the expression of VEGF (P<0. 05). Follow-up data was available in 66 cases with a range of 1 to 48 months. Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed survival rate of Periostin-positive group was significantly lower than that of Perios-tin-negative group (P<0. 05). The survival rate of VEGF-positive group was significantly lower than that of VEGF-negative group (P<0. 05). Conclusion The expression of Periostin has a close relationship with VEGF in the carcinogenesis, combined detection of both Periostin and VEGF can become an objective target to evaluate Potentials of invasion and lymph node metastasis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, which has a great significance to the judgment of prognosis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
