Objective To investigate the effects of cadmium on bone loss in ovariectomized rats. Methods Female Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 6 months, were divided to 5 groups, i.e. sham operation group (sh) , control group (ovariectomy 0 mg/L Cd), low dose group (ovariectomy+50 mg/L Cd), medium dose group (ovariectomy+100 mg/L Cd), high dose group (ovariectomy+200 mg/L Cd). Cadmium was administrated via drinking water. After 24- week exposure, the following indices were measured, bone mineral density (BMD) at the femurs necks, serum estradiol, urinary and blood cadmium, urinary ? 2-MG, bone calcium and cadmium, and calcium contents in feces and urine. Results Estradiol and BMD significantly declined in the ovariectomized rats. Cadmium administration aggravated the declines of BMD in a dose-effect pattern. Urinary ? 2-MG, the excretions of calcium in feces and urine were significantly higher in cadmium-exposed groups in a dose-effects pattern. And bone calcium was also significantly lower in the group exposed to 200 mg/L cadmium than in the control group. Conclusion It is indicated that cadmium could increase bone loss and decrease BMD in ovariectomized rats by increasing the excretions of calcium in feces and urine.

OBJECTIVEThis study aimed to explore the effect of the up-regulation of Notch1 on osteoclastogenesis induced to osteoclasts by receptor activator for nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL) and macrophage colony-stimulating factors (MCSF) in vitro.

METHODSThe bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) of Rosa(-notch1) mice were cultured and induced to osteoclasts by RANKL and MCSF. The BMSCs were transfected with the Ad-Cre-green fluorescent protein (GFP) virus or Ad-GFP virus. Total RNA from cells was extracted, and the gene expression levels of Notch1, Notch2, Notch3, Notch4, Deltal, Delta3, Delta4, Jagged1, Hes1, and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) were detected at the defined stage by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Osteoclast formation was analyzed by TRAP assay.

RESULTSThe number of TRAP-positive multinuclear cells of the experimental group significantly decreased compared with that of the control group. The mRNA expression levels of Notch1, Notch3, Jagged1, Delta3, and Hesl of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group, whereas the TRAP mRNA expression of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONUp-regulation of Notch1 inhibit osteoclastogenesis of BMSCs induced by RANKL and MCSF in vitro.

Carotenoids play an important role in regulating the hydrogen production of hydrogen-producing Rhodobacter sp. The carotenoids of hydrogen-producing Rhodobacter sp. grown in acetate medium were extracted by using acetone-methanol (7∶2,V/V) solvent and were separated by using thin-layer chromatography on silica-gel plate. The qualitative and quantitative of the carotenoids were analyzed by spectrometry. The results showed that the carotenoids were completely extracted three times with acetone-methanol (7∶2,V/V) in two hours. The ultrasonication had little effect on yield of carotenoids. The yield of carotenoids was 2.81mg/g wet cell. There were 4 spots on the silica-gel plate in the order of yellow, red, light red and light yellow. Yellow spot and red spot were the dominant composition of carotenoid in Rhodobacter sp. The spectrometry data showed that the yellow and red component might be the spheroidene and spirilloanthin respectively.

There are many progresses in the therapy of MM with ASCT. ASCT improves the ratio of CR,EFS and OS,compared with conventional chemotherapy.Myeloma patients with renal failure or old age also can be candidate for ASCT.Tandem autologous transplantation improves the ratio of CR. Its impact to long-term EFS and OS still need to be judged.To improve conditional project,to choose suitable time,and- toselect consolidation schedule can boost therapeutic effect.

Objective To investigate human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV 1)specific CD8'T cell responses and related human leukocyte antigenⅠ(HLA-I)restriction sites.Methods Four Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)strains-transformed B-lymphoblastoid cell lines (BLCL)from periph eral blood monocytes (PBMC)of 4 healthy individuals were established.Using synthesized peptides in HIV-1 Gag,Vif and Nef regions as epitopes and using BLCL as antigen presenting cells (APC), the frequency of interferon-7(IFN-?)secreting cells in CD8 T cells from a HIV-infected long term nonprogressor by enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT)assay in vitro were assessed.Moreover, matching analysis of HI.A-Ⅰrestriction sites were performed.Results HIV-1 epitopes were presen ted restrictively by HLA-Ⅰmolecules in specific CD8 T cell responses,and this antigen presenting had high specificity.HLA-Ⅰrestriction sitesA03,A26,C04andC08 contributed to presentepitopes in HIV-1 C-ag region,A03 and C08 to HIV-1 Nef as well.Conclusion HLA-Ⅰrestriction sites may include A03,A26,C04 and C08 in HIV-1 Gag region,and A03,C08 in Nef region.

By analyzing the traditional educational mode and subject of the higher medical education, the basic method and emphasis of the experimental class of the clinical medicine educational innovation have been established, and the general frame of the educational innovation content has been constructed, the executive essential point and point in the content of the educational innovation have been made. After several years of the practice and positive exploration, the class has achieved success.

To adapt to the need of current public heath reform and education reform ,the aim of this study is to explore and improve practical teaching mode in preventative medicine for students in specialty of clinical medicine and set up normalized practical teaching base to enhance their concept of preventative medicine and enlarge their knowledge and increase their practical ability and social adoption.
