In ultrastructural level, this paper shows that the pig bile extracts and its effective constituent, the sodium deoxycholate, could fragment the Trichomonas vaginalis in vitro, The flagellum and caudal projection were splitted up; the plasma membrane, the intracellular membrane system, such as the limiting membranes of hydrogcnosome, phagosome and nuclear envelope were injured too; and cytoplasm was condensed, even the whole body was fragmented. The mechanism of the effeces is probably due to the fact that the surface activity of the drugs accelerated degradation of lipids which are made of the biomembrane system of human trichomonas vaginalis.

In recent half century,the incidence of male infertility is in an increasing tendency;however,the etiological factors and its pathogenesis are not fully clarified yet.By associating with the some results of our research,some hot spots on the pathogenesis of male infertility are briefly approached here,and the effects of varicocele,formaldehyde and infertility-related genes on male infertility are especially focused.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of aging and castration on the density of andro gen receptor(AR) in the male rat heart. MethodsAR in the heart of rats aged 40d,90d(intact and castrated) and 2 years were demonstrated by means of immunohistochemical technique and the den sity of the positive staining was measured by using image analys is. The optical density of AR in the septum of the rats were analyzed by anova and doncan process of the SAS data analysis system. Re sultsOD(AR) of the group aged 2 years was higher than that of the groups aged 40d and 90d (0. 3550±0. 0077,0. 31080. 0264 and 0. 3149±0. 0200 respectively), thetwolattergroups showed similarly intensive staining, while the value of castrated group(0. 4136±0. 0320) was signif icantly greater than that of intact same aged group. Conclusion The development of sexual gland has little influence in the density of AR in the male rat heart during prepuberty to adult, both old age and castration increase the density of AR in the rat heart.

Objective To study the effects of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) in early stage diabetic retinopathy and their mechanisms,so as to guide the clinical work theoretically.Methods Thirty-six SD rats were randomly divided into four groups.Nine rats were used as normal controls(M Group).Streptozocin were injected intraperitoneally to induce diabetes for 1 month(M1 Group),2 months(M2 Group),and 3 months(M3 group).At the experimental ends of each group,the rats were over anesthetized and their eyeballs were extracted to make digest preparation.Immunofluorescence were used to investigate the expression of VEGF on retinal blood vessels.Transmission electromicroscopy was used to observe the histology of the retinal vessels.Results VEGF immunofluorescence showed an expression rate of 56% in M2 group and 89% in M3 group.Transmission electromicroscopy showed no change in M Group.However,it showed swelling of endothelial cells,finger like process into the capillary cavity,uneven distribution of heterochromatin in pericytes in M1 Group.Obvious fragmental thickening and splitting of basement membrane,swelling and deformation,finger like process to the capillary cavity,and concentration and margination of heterochromatin in endothelial cells,and swelling and deformation of rough surfaced endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondrion in pericytes were observed in M2 and M3 groups,especially in the latter.Conclusion The expression of VEGF proteins in the retinas of diabetic rats increases with the progression of diabetes.It proves that VEGF plays an important role in the occurrence and development of early diabetic retinopathy.

OBJECTIVE: To study the immunomodulatory effects of Astragalus polysaccharide (APS) in type 1 diabetic mice. METHODS: A mouse model of type 1 diabetes mellitus was established by intraperitoneal injection of multiple low dose streptozotocin (MLD-STZ). The diabetic mice were intraperitoneally administered 100, 200, 400 mg/kg APS or 1 ml normal saline (NS) every day respectively, then the diabetic mice were sacrificed after 15 or 30 days of treatment. The effect of APS on insulitis was determined via pancreatic histological analysis. Serum insulin autoantibody (IAA) levels were measured by radio-immunoassay (RIA). Proliferation ability of splenocytes to concanavalin A was tested by using [(3)H] thymidine incorporation assay. The levels of cytokine interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) secreted by splenocytes were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method, and the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) in spleens was characterized using Western-blot analysis. RESULTS: Attenuated insulitis, down-regulation of the serum IAA levels and Th1/Th2 cytokine ratio, decrease of the proliferation ability of splenocytes to concanavalin A, and up-regulation of the PPARgamma levels in spleens showed a significant time- and dose-dependent response to APS treatment as compared with the NS-treated group. CONCLUSION: APS possesses immunotherapeutic effects on mice with type 1 diabetes mellitus through improving the cell- and humoral-mediated immunity.

Objective　To evaluate the safety and primary outcomes of transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site radical nephrectomy (LESS-RN) by using home-made single-port device.　Methods From July 2010 to November 2011,we had performed transumbilical LESS-RN on eleven renal cell carcinoma patients by using the home-made single-port device.There were 5 males and 6 females in this group.The mean age was 49 (37 -68) years and mean body mass index was 24.2 (18.4 -30.4) kg/m2.Ultrasound and CT scan revealed 11 renal tumors (7 on left and 4 on right),with 3 on the upper pole,4 in the middle and 4 in the lower pole.There were 2 cases with suspicious lymph node metastasis and one case with renal cyst.There was no distant metastasis.The intracorporal procedure was similar to conventional laparoscopic radical nephrectomy.　Results　Except two cases converted to conventional laparoscopic RN and one case converted to hand-assisted laparoscopic RN,the other procedures were completed successfully without open conversion.The mean operative time was 225 min (155 -297 min) and mean estimated blood loss was 271 ml (50 -900 ml).Postoperative results showed that all cases were renal cell carcinoma and there were 3 cases in T1a,5 cases in T1b and 3 cases in T2a.The mean visual analog pain scale (VAPS) was 4 (3 -6),and mean hospital stay was 10 d (5 -15 d).With the mean follow-up of 17 months (8 -24 months),all patients were alive with no evidence of local recurrence or metastasis.Patients were satisfied with the cosmetic results of the wound recovery.　Conclusions　Transumbilical LESS-RN using home-made single-port device is a safe approach in selected patients and has excellent cosmetic results. Primary oncologic outcomes are good.However,we will still need large clinic trials to further evaluate the efficacy and safety of LESSRN.
