OBJECTIVE:To optimize the ultrasonic extraction and purification technology of total saponins from Marsdenia te-nacissima,and to prepare purified total saponins from M. tenacissima. METHODS:Using the extraction rate of total saponins from M. tenacissima as index,ethanol volume fraction,solvent-solid ratio and extraction temperature as factors,ultrasonic extraction technology of total saponins from M. tenacissima was optimized by single factor test and Box-Behnken response surface design. Us-ing the content of total saponins in elution,the effects of ethanol elution volume fraction on purification technology of total sapo-nins by D101 type macroporous adsorption resin was investigated. RESULTS:The optimal ultrasonic extraction technology was as follows as ethanol volume fraction of 85%,solvent-solid ratio of 18.5∶1 (ml/g),extraction temperature of 80 ℃. In verification test,the average extraction rate of total saponins from M. tenacissima was 4.80%(RSD=1.06%,n=3);it was close to predicted value 4.89%,and the deviation was 1.84%. The optimal purification technology was as follows as 45% ethanol as eluant,90%ethanol for purification. Verification test showed that the average content of total saponins from M. tenacissima was 62.45%(RSD=0.88%,n=3). CONCLUSIONS:The optimized technology can be used for the extraction and purification of total saponins from M. tenacissima. The technology is stable and reliable.

A large series of lens were collected from normal and senile cataractous human eyes, and were investigated according to the theories of oxyradical and lipid peroxide (LPO). The findings showed that the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and catalase in the senile cataractous lens were very significantly lower than those in the normal ones, while the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in the lens of senile cataractous eyes was very significantly higher than that of normal eyes. The results suggest that the oxyradical and LPO might be one of the direct causes leading to senile cataract formation.

Objective To explore the effect of α-phenyl-N-tert-butylinitrone (PBN) on expression of nerve growth factor (NGF) in serum and spinal cord tissue in rats after spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods 174 female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to following groups: normal control group (n=54), normal saline control group (NS group, n=60, intrathecally injected normal saline 15 μl), and PBN group (n=60, intrathecally injected PBN, 3 mg, 15 μl). The model was established with New York University blow device (150 kDyne, 1 s dwell time). PBN was intrathecally injected into the damaged areas 30 min after operation, then once a day for 7 days. The Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan (BBB) Locomotor Rating Scale was used to assess the rats 3 days and 1 day before, and 1 day, 5 days, 10 days, 15 days, 20 days,25 days, 30 days and 35 days after SCI. NGF in the injured spinal cord tissue and serum was measured 1 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, 3 days, 7 days,14 days and 21 days after SCI. Results NGF increased in serum but not in spinal cord. The ratio of NGF/total protein in serum rose and peaked 48 h after SCI, and the ratio was higher in NS group (0.92%±0.02%) than in PBN group (0.77%±0.05%) (P=0.021). BBB scores increased from the 9th day, and PBN group improved better than NS group (P<0.01). Conclusion PBN could reduce the expression of NGF in the SCI rats, and promote the recovery of neurol function.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the change of the resistance of common pathogenic bacteria isolated in the First Clinical Hospital of Jilin University during the past 5 years to quinolones.METHODS: Disk diffusion test was used to study the susceptibility test,with the results evaluated based on US Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI).WHONET-5 software was used to analyze the drug resistance data.RESULTS: During 2003～2007,the detection rates of extended spectrum beta-lactamases(ESBLs)-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella.spp were 43.6%～60.1% and 51.0%～65.1%,respectively;the detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) and methicillin-resistant coagulase negative Staphylococcus(MRSCN) were 50.8%～83.3% and 80.0%～81.5%,respectively;the resistance of common pathogenic bacteria to quinolones showed an increasing tendency,much as in MRSA,MRSCN,feces enterococci,Enterococcus faecalis,and Escherichia coli.CONCLUSION: Monitoring of the resistance of common pathogenic bacteria to quinolones should be strengthened.The change of the antimicrobial resistance should be investigated in order to direct rational drug use in the clinic and prevent the propagation of drug-resistant strains.

Objective To investigate the stimulated proliferation of colon cancer cells in co-cultures of regenerating hepatocytes. Methods Regenerating hepatocytes(24 hours after partial hepatectomy)were obtained by collagenase perfusion of models of rats undergoing 70% liver resection. To determine whether the ratio of human colon cell line SW480 cells to hepatocytes in co-cultures has influence on their interaction,these cells were cultured in ratios of 1: 101:1, or 10: 1. Proliferation capacity was assessed by the percentage of 3 H-TdR incorporation. Expression of epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR), insulin-like growth factor1 receptor(IGF-1R)and hepatocyte growth factor receptor(c-met) were analyzed by western blot. Results For co-cultured SW480 and hepatocytes in the ratios of 1: 1 and 1: 10, an increase of disintegrations per minute(dpm) occurred after 72 hours' culture, and lasted at 120 hours' culture(P < 0.05). No difference was found between the group with ratio of 10:1 and control group. Protein levels of EGFR and IGF-1R, but not c-met, were significantly increased between culture of 24 hours and 120 hours; however, no change of these receptors was found in the ratio of 10: 1. Conclusions These results imply that co-culturing human colon cancer cells with regenerating hepatocytes leads to increased expression of EGFR and IGF-1R. We conclude that this effect is probably dependent on paracrine stimulation, by which numerous signals from the hepatocytes contribute to the hyperproliferative state of colon cancer cells via up-regulating the responding receptors.

ObjectiveTo recognize the normal CT appearances of adult pterygoid hamulus and increase the ability to recognize pterygoid hamulus abnormalities.Methods The pterygoid hamulus of 108 normal adults ( male:53 cases,female,55 cases) were studied with MIP and VR reconstructive images by 64-slice spiral CT in order to observe its normal shape,to measure its length,diameter,vertical height,horizontal width,abduct angle in coronal position and post-abducent angle in anteroposterior position.The differences between genders,two sides and age groups were compared,respectively.ResultsThe normal pterygoid hamulus had a wide basal body and a pillar caudomedial part with round or intumescentia extreme.In coronal position,the distal end towards outer direction in 214 sides and 2 sides in inner direction. In anteroposterior position,the distal end towards posterior direction in 190 sides and anterior direction in 26 sides.The pterygoid hamulus length,vertical height,and horizontal width of adult males were (8.18 ± 0.94) mm,(7.23 ±0.92) mm,(4.27 ±0.81 ) mm,respectively.They were larger than the adult females (7.31 ± 1.01) mm,(6.26 ±0.90) mm,(3.97 ±0.82) mm,and the difference was statistically significant (t values were 6.56,7.86,2.72 respectively,P ＜ 0.05).The pterygoid hamulus vertical height of age group over 60 years old (7.13 ± 1.35) mm exceeded the age groups of 18-39 (6.55 ±0.86) mm.The difference was statistically significant ( F =4.95,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions64-slice spiral CT could display the shape,length and angle of pterygoid hamulus in full. It could help to recognize correlated pterygoid hamulus diseases.

One hundred and fifty femoral head necrosis patients with intramedullary decompression received autologous stem cell transplantation. The blood was taken from unilateral or bilateral iliac, in each group the volumes of blood taken were 200, 300 or 400 ml respectively. The number of mononuclear cells was counted before and after centrifugation. The mononuclear cell count in subgroup of 200 ml,300 ml and 400 ml taken from unilateral iliac after centrifugation was (3. 11 ±1. 42) × 1010/L, (2. 62 ±1. 31 ) × 1010/L and(2. 13 ±. 91) × 1010/L. The concentration was significantly lower in subgroup of 400 ml than that of 200 ml (t=5. 118, P<0. 01). The mononuclear cells count in subgroup of 200 ml,300 ml and 400 ml taken from bilateral iliac was(4. 51 ±. 21) × 1010/L, (3. 89 ±. 06) × 1010/L and (2. 98 ±1. 39) × 1010/L, the concentration was significantly lower in subgroup of 400 ml than that of subgroup of 200 ml (t = 6. 446, P < 0. 01). Whether 200 ml or 300 ml or 400 ml blood were taken, the mononuclear cell count in blood taken from bilateral iliac after centrifugation was significantly higher than that from unilateral iliac(t = 3. 119,P < 0. 01; t = 5. 544, P < 0. 01 ;t = 2. 207 ,P < 0. 05). The results indicate that the concentration of isolated bone marrow mononuclear cells is higher from bilateral iliac than unilateral iliac. The concentration of isolated monocytes is reduced gradually with the increased blood volume.

OBJECTIVE: To study a surgical and repairing method for defects after the resection of basal cell carcinoma of external nose. METHOD: There are 26 cases of basal cell carcinoma that tumors have been resected completely after operation. For defect repairing in those 26 cases, 2 cases adopt direct suture method; 2 cases use skin graft repairing methods; 18 cases employ naselabial skin flap repairing method; 4 cases choose forehead pedicle skin flap repairing methods. RESULT: the wound of all the 26 cases was primary healed. Additionally, skin flap and skin graft were all survived. Follow-up studied in patients 1 to 3 years after the surgery showed that the local scar was not obvious and no tumor recurred or transferred. CONCLUSION Different surgical and repairing methods are performed to obtain a satisfactory results based on the area of defect and its location in nose. Naselabial skin flap is especially an ideal method to repair defects.
