2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate and sodium monochloroacetate were employed to synthesize [2-(Methacryloyloxy)ethyl] dimethyl ammonium acetate (CBMA) functional monomer.CBMA was grafted on the surface of silica by surface initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) to obtain silica-CBMA hydrophilic interaction stationary phase.Three silica-CBMA stationary phases with different grafted density of CBMA monomer were synthesized in SI-ATRP progress by changing the concentration of CBMA under the same conditions.The ability to separate organic acid compounds of the synthesized silica-CBMA stationary phases was evaluated under different conditions, including effects of pH value, salt concentration and content of water of mobile phase on retention of solutes.The results showed that the stationary phases could effectively separate organic acid compounds in HILIC mode, which followed a mixed mode of chromatography of ion exchange and hydrophilic interaction.The retention of solutes decreased with the increases of salt concentration of mobile phase, which consistent with the characteristics of ion exchange;the pH value of mobile phase had significant influence on ionization of the stationary phase and solutes, i.e., the retention of solutes increased as the increasing of pH value of mobile phase.However, the retention of solutes decreased with the increasing of the content of water in mobile phase, which was the typical characteristic of HILIC.The method of hydrophilic interaction chromatography combined with silica-CBMA stationary phases could conveniently determinate the content of vitamin C and rutin in rutin tablets, providing a new method for the separation and determination of strong polar samples.

[Methods]The osteoblast in vitri was cultured.The cell viability was assured by MTT test.ELISA method was applied to detect RANKL(receptor activator of nuclear factor-kB ligand),OPG(osteoprotegerin) content in serum supernatant.[Results]Compared to the control,MTT test demonstrated that Co2+ and Cr3+ ions can obviously decrease the cell viability of osteoblast.When osteoblast were exposed to Co2+ and Cr3+ ions for 24 and 48 hours,the releasion of OPG increased by 32.1% and 17.8% as compared with the control(P

Objective To report our experience of interventional procedure for arterial complications in post renal transplantation and to evaluate its clinical value.Methods In a retrospective analysis of renal transplantations in our center,52 cases of renal allograft artery abnormalities had taken angiography.Interventional procedure included transluminal angioplasty of arterial stenoses,treatment of arterial occlusion,and embolization of pseudoaneurysm.Results Renal allograft artery abnormalities included artery stenosis (n=21),artery thrombosis (n=13) and embolision (n=1),renal artery pseudoaneurysms (n=2),and decrease of renal artery flow (n=3).Of the 21 artery stenosis,2 grafts with artery stenosis were lost because the stenosis could not be corrected,and 3 with mild stenosis received no treatment.Another 16 accepted renal artery angioplasty (balloon dilation,n=12,and stent implantation,n=4).14 achieved long-term allograft function.1 graft was lost because renal function failed to recover.Restenosis occurred in one stent implantation,and lost the allograft function after secondary dilation.13 cases received thrombolytic therapy through artery catheter for thrombosis and 9 achieved long-term allograft function.Thrombolyses failed in 3 cases,and renal function failed to recover in 1 case.One pseudoaneurysm received stent implantation after embolization,and got a short-term allograft function.The other one received allograft excision.Conclusion Intravascular interventional therapy will be the first-line therapy for any indications of complication in post renal transplantation,and it can surely save the kidney in a majority of instances.

With the development of imaging technique and molecular biological technique,researchers all over the world have made a great many of studies on the mechanism and treatment of lymphatic metastasis.The discovery of lymphatic endothelial cell-specific markers make it clear to distinguish lymphatic endotheliocyte.The application of new techniques such as immunohistochemical method and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) can study the lymphatic metastasis from the genetic and molecular level.The application of molecular imaging and nanoparticles could provide new detection methods and therapies.The establishment of animal models offers a solid foundation for experimental study.

Lymph node metastasis of malignant tumor is a complex pathological process closely related to tumor lymphangiogenesis. With tumor growth, some growth factors of lymphatic vessels are secreted and new lymphatic vessels are formed around or inside the tumor. Then, the tumor cells invade the lymphatic vessels, follow the lymph flow into every lymph node station, and gradually form the lymph node metastasis. Normal cells are in a relatively stable internal environment. Cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, as well as secretion and expression of related factors, occur in accordance with the normal process. However, the balance is broken with tumor growth and progression. A gradual formation of a suitable external environment for the tumor growth, namely, the tumor microenvironment, occurs. And the pathological and physiological characteristics of tumor microenvironment, which contains numerous lymphangiogenic growth factors and inflammatory conditions, hypoxia, acidic microenvironment, and high interstitial fluid pressure, promote tumor lymphangiogenesis and formation of tumor lymph node metastasis.

BACKGROUND: Biliary tract complications are one of the most common postoperative problems after liver transplantation.Balloon dilation and percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) has become an effective method to improve biliary complication after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT).OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the balloon dilation and PTBD in the treatment of biliary stricture after OLT through case follow up.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A total of 53 consecutive patients underwent interventional procedures to treat biliary stricture after OLT in the Department of Radiology, Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University from July 1999 to March 2007 and were recruited for this study. The series included 46 men and 7 women, with 17-64 years of age. After OLT transplantation, all patients had abnormally elevated serum bilirubin level, and confirmed to suffer from obstruction of biliary tract by CT or MRI examinations.METHODS: Of 50 patients who received PTBD treatment, 36 underwent PTBD through right bile duct, 14 underwent bilateral (right bile duct and left bile duct) PTBD with 6 patients through left bile duct in the second treatment. A total of 13 underwent balloon dilation, and 3 were subjected to balloon dilation alone.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: An averaged 9.6 months of follow up was performed in 53 patients to observe obstructive jaundice recurrence induced by abnormally elevated serum bilirubin level after percutaneous transhepatic biliary interventional procedures.RESULTS: Follow up results showed satisfactory clinical outcome with obstructive jaundice resolved in all patients, except one patient, who received treatment with T tube, died of acute rejection at month 1 during the follow up, and one patient with liver failure had extremely poor prognosis after discharge at month 1 during the follow up. Obstructive jaundice was recovered even healed and serum bilirubin level was decreased to normal level in 51 patients at the end of follow-up. Primary success rate was 79% (42 in 53 cases), and assisted success rate was 21%. The first interventional procedure failed to treat obstructive jaundice in 5 patients. Obstructive jaundice recurred after primary percutaneous procedure in other 6 cases. No procedure related severe complications happened.CONCLUSION: Balloon dilation and PTBD are safe to treat biliary tract complication after OLT, without complication.
