Surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (SALDI-MS) has become an indispensable tool in macromolecule and small molecule analysis for solid and liquid samples.However, there were few studies focusing on the ionization mechanisms especially for the small molecules.In this work, the compounds of pyrene, coronene and rubrene which have similar molecular structures were used to investigate the ionization mechanism via SALDI-MS.Additionally the effect of the laser power on the product ions was also investigated.It was found that strong cluster ions peaks nM+(M=pyrene, coronene) were observed for pyrene and coronene, and daughter ions of coronene by loss of C2H2 were also observed.On the contrary, no cluster ion was obtained for rubrene, only daughter ions with the losses of nC6H5 (n=1, 2, 3) were acquired.Finally, the ionization mechanisms were discussed.The formation of clusters of pyrene and coronene was attributed to the interaction of π-π bands.For rubrene, the spatial barrier weakened the interaction of π-π bands because the four phenyl groups were not on the same plane of skeleton structure, thus impeding the formation of cluster ions.

Objective To observe the sedative effect of dexmedetomidine in senile cataract surgery with retrobulbar nerve block.Methods Ninety-three senile cataract patients,ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ grades,aged from 65 to 82 years old,scheduled for cataract surgery with retrobulbar nerve block were equally randomized into three groups by systematic sampling.The patients in three groups were given bolus infusion dexmedetomidine 0.5 μ g/kg before operation and group A was maintained by 0.2 μ g/ (kg· h),group B was maintained by 0.4 μ g/(kg· h) and group C was maintained by 0.6 μ g/(kg· h).Ramsay score,mean arterial blood pressure (MAP),heart rate (HR),respiratory rate,pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) were recorded before anesthesia (T0),after retrobulbar nerve block (T1),and after sedative administration for 10 (T2),20 (T3),30 (T4),60 min (T5).Results The operation in three groups was successful.The scores of Ramsay at T2-T5 in three groups was significantly higher than that at T0 [group A:(2.6 ± 0.7),(2.5 ±0.2),(2.4 ±0.8),(2.4 ± 0.3) scores vs.(2.0 ± 0.0) scores;group B:(3.0 ± 0.7),(3.8 ± 0.7),(4.2 ± 0.2),(4.5 ± 0.2)scores vs.(2.0 ± 0.0) scores;group C:(3.8 ± 0.6),(4.7 ± 0.4),(5.2 ± 0.8),(5.6 ± 0.6) scores vs.(2.0 ± 0.0) scores].The scores of Ramsay at T3-T5 in group C was significantly higher than that in group A and group B,the scores of Ramsay in group B was significantly higher than that in group A,there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).The HR at T3-T5 in three groups was significantly lower than that at T0 [group A:(77 ± 5),(76 ± 7),(74 ± 12) times/min vs.(88 ± 12) times/min; group B:(72 ± 9),(70 ± 8),(70 ± 11)times/min vs.(90 ± 10) times/min;group C:(64 ±7),(55 ±7),(54 ±6) times/min vs.(88 ±9)times/min],the HR at T3-T5 in group C was significantly lower than that in group A and group B,there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).The level of MAP,respiratory rate in three groups and interclass had no significant difference (P＞ 0.05).There was no respiratory depression,nausea,vomiting and dizzy occurred.Conclusion Bolus infusion dexmedetomidine 0.5 μ g/kg followed by intravenous infusion at 0.2-0.4 μ g/(kg·h) is suitable for sedation of elderly patients with cataract surgery.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the prognosis effect of Shengmai injection to the rt-PA thrombolysis on broadened thera-peutic window patients of mild-to-moderate cerebral infarction under the guidance of computer tomography(CT). METHODS:168 patients with mild-to-moderate cerebral infarction were randomly divided into control group (84 cases) and observation group (84 cases). Control group received rt-PA(0.9 mg/kg),and 10% of the total rt-PA was mixed and injected into patients within 1 min, the rest 90% adding into 250 ml 0.9% Sodium chloride injection (no less than 1 h),CT was performed after 24 h thrombolytic therapy,and the patients with no intracerebral hemorrhage in re-examination received 300 mg/d aspirin for 10 d,then 100 mg/d for 90 d,and appropriate statins,calcium antagonists,β-blockers and nitrates;observation group additionally received 40 ml Sheng-mai injection,adding into 250 ml 5% Glucose injection,intravenous infusion,once a day,for 28 d. National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score,Rankin score,daily living-Barthel Index (Barthel) score,rate of symptomatic intracranial hemor-rhage,rate of secondary hemorrhage,hospitalization time,3-month postoperative mortality and incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:Before treatment,there were no significant differences in the NIHSS score,Rankin score and Barthel score(P>0.05). The NIHSS score in 2 groups after 6 h,24 h and 7 d were significantly lower than before,and observa-tion group was lower than control group after 24 h and 7 d;Rankin score after 3 months was significantly lower than before,and observation group was lower than control group;Barthel score after 3 months was significantly higher than before,and observation group was higher than control group,The differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The hospitalization time in observa-tion group was significantly shorter than in control group,and 3-month postoperative mortality was significantly lower than control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). There were no obvious adverse reactions during treatment. CONCLU-SIONS:Based on conventional treatment,Shengmai injection has improvement in the rt-PA intravenous thrombolysis on broadened therapeutic window patients of mild-to-moderate cerebral infarction under the guidance of CT,it can reduce NIHSS score and Rankin score,increase Barthel score,shorten hospitalization time and reduce the 3-month postoperative mortality,with good safety.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of chronic obstructive pulmanory disease(COPD)with different results of bronchodilator reversibility test.Methods A total of 47 cases of COPD were selected and given bronchodilator reversibility test and lung fuction who were divided into two groups according to the bronchodilator reversibility test.We compared these two groups with sex,age,smoke history,body mass index,levels of IgE,eosinophil and lung function.Results The positive group had a shorter history of smoking and a higher level of IgE.The amelioration of FVC,FEV1,FRC,MEF 75% and MEF 50% was higher in the positive group than the negative(P

It is proved that there are significant differences in individual susceptibility to lung cancer.Genetic polymorphisms of several enzymes involved in the detoxification and biotransformation might be related to the lung cancer susceptibility.Cytochromes P450,N-acetyltransferases,microsomal epoxide hydrolase,NQO1 are the most frequently investigated genes in recent years.All theses genes appear to be the candidates for lung cancer susceptibility genes.The studies of the relationship between polymorphisms of metabolic enzymes and lung cancer susceptibility will help to find useful biomarkers.An improved understanding of genetic polymorphisms may help to identify individuals who are at increased risk for lung cancer and decrease the incidence of lung cancer.

Objective In cartilage tissue engineering,it was a difficult problem to keep chongdro-cytes phenotype for long time.The aim was made to investigate the dedifferentiation of human articular chon-drocytes,and to verify the inhibition to dedifferentiation by transfection with recombinant pcDNA3.1(+)/TGF-? 2 in vitro.Methods Free chondrocytes were isolated from healthy articular cartilage harvested from6adult patients underwent operation because of other condition.The recombinant pcDNA3.1(+)/TGF-? 2 con-structed in advance was transferred by liposome mediated transfection to monolayer cultured articular chon-drocytes.The first,sixth and ninth generation chondrocytes being transfected and non-transfected were as-sayed by histological examination of HE and Safranine-O staining to observe their morphological changes.RT-PCR,ELISA,immunohistochemistry analysis and prime hybridization were performed to these cells to i-dentify the expression and biosynthesis of TGF-? 2 and cartilage-associated genes and proteins.Results The non-transfected articular chondrocytes in monolayer culture demonstrated the tendency of dedifferentia-tion,and lost the characteristics of their phenotype progressively in subculture.The expression of TGF-? 2 ,collagen typeⅡand proteoglycan in non-transfected cells were decreased,but expression of collagen typeⅠincreased gradually with time going on.On the contrary,as for the transfected chondrocytes,the trans-ferred gene was expressed in cells of all examined generations,and the expression levels were higher than that of non-transfected cell of same generations.The transfected chondrocytes maintained their phenotype and characteristics of articular cartilage.They expressed and produced collagen typeⅡand proteoglycan in a higher level,and collagen typeⅠin a lower level than that of non-transfected cells.Conclusion Human articular chondrocytes in monolayer culture have the tendency of dedifferentiation.The results suggested that chondrocytes tranfected by pcDNA3.1(+)/TGF-? 2 could produce endogenous TGF-? 2 .Transfection of pcD-NA3.1(+)/TGF-? 2 is able to provide transient and long lasting expression of TGF-? 2 in chondrocytes,and may be a feasible method to inhibit dedifferentiation of articular chondrocytes in vitro.

Objective To elucidate the regulation of e pidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression by transforming growth factor (TGF)? and epidermal growth factor (EGF) in human prostate cancer cells. Methods EGFR mRNA expression and its protein level were measur ed by means of RT-PCR and Western blot respectively in three human prostate can cer cell lines,the androgen-responsive (LNCaP) and the nonresponsive (ARCaP and PC3), all being treated with exogenous EGF or TGF?. Results TGF? enhanced EGFR mRNA two-to tenfold in all three cell lines, whereas EGF increased EGFR mRNA two-to sixfold.In all the three cell lines, TGF? induc ed total EGFR protein levels were higher than EGF. Conclusions These data indicate that TGF?/EGF-EGFR path-way serves as a key growth regulator in prostate cancer.TGF?, but not EGF, would preferentially maintain an autocrine loop in human androgen-nonresponsive prostate cancer.
