The anatomical and functional details of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of the knee joint were studied on 55 normal cadaver knees of adults.ACL is made up of multiple fascicles, the basic unit of which is collagen. It is attached to the medial surface of the lateral femoral condyle and front of the anterior tibial spine. ACL is narrow in the middle and fans out at the attachments. The fascicles of ACL have been summarily divided into two groups: the anterior medial portion (AMP) and the posterior lateral portion(PLP). The tension of AMP is different from that of PLP during movement of the knee. ACL restricts the anterior drawer sign, and the internal and external rotation of the knee. AMP acts with the knee in flexion and PLP in extension. ACL restricts hyperextension, too. The function of ACL is related to its morpholcgical structure and the anatomy of the attachments. Rupture of ACL may result in instability of the knee, and injuries to the different components of ACL may produce different signs.

By comparing three cultivation techniques of Astragalus mongholicus, i. e. direct seeding, furrow erectplanting and furrow flat planting, it was found that furrow flat planting is the optimum technique. Its yield onplain ground was 1. 26kg/m' and 0. 96kg/m_2 on mountainous area- Root of the plant was longer, thicker andheavier than that produced hy other cultivation techniqlles.

OBJECTIVETo establish a model of hypoxic postconditioning of dermal microvascular endothelial cells.

METHODSDuring reoxygenation after hypoxia, cells received three times of hypoxic/ reoxygenation alternate treatment for a certain time. The cells were seeded on 6-well plates, with one plate for one group. They were divided into 6 groups as group 1 ( Control), group 2 (8h hypoxia + 24h reoxygenation), group 3 (8h hypoxia + 2 min x 3 times post-hypoxia treatment) , group 4 (8h hypoxia + 5 min x 3 times post-hypoxia treatment), group 5 (8h hypoxia + 10 min x 3 times post-hypoxia treatment), 6 group (8h hypoxia + 20 min x 3 times post-hypoxia treatment). Each group underwent 8 h hypoxia + 24 h hypoxia Buffer and reoxygenation. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was detected during the process. Apoptosis rate was calculated by staining Tunel method. Bcl-2, Bax and activated caspase-3 protein were detected by Western Blot.

RESULTSIn the continuous hypoxia process, the LDH was (1563 ± 83.35) IU/L at 8h and (582.85 ± 58.25 ) IU/L at 0h, showing a statistical difference (P = 0.0001). Western blotting results showed that the expression of Bax/Bcl-2 in group 2 was 0.38 ± 0.02, showing a significant difference when compared with that in group 3 (0.23 ± 0.01) and group 4 (0.22 ± 0.02) (P = 0.012, P = 0.005), while not when compared with that in group 5 (0.33 ± 0.02) and 6 groups (0.34 ± 0.01) P > 0.05). The ratio of Activated caspase-3/caspase-3 in group 2 (6.30 ± 1.50) was significantly higher than that in group 3 (2.17 ± 0.26) and group 4 (2.63 ± 0.31) (P = 0.008, P = 0.019); while not in group 5 (4.36 ± 0.29) and group 6 (4.97 ± 0.51) (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSThe model of hypoxic postconditioning of human dermal microvascular endothelial cells is successfully established.

Objective To explore the effects of Sinomenine (Sin) on phenotype transdifferentiation in renal tubular epithelial cells. Methods Mice primary tubular epithelial cells and cell line (MCT) were cultured in vitro. Model group cells were stimulated by IL-1?(10 ng/ml). The cells of Sin group were co-incubated with Sin(10, 100 ,500?mol/L) simultaneously. The cells without IL-1?and Sin treatment were regarded as control group. The protein expression of?-smooth muscle actin (SMA) and Vimentin was assessed by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. The mRNA expression of?-SMA and Vimentin was examined by RT-PCR. Secretion of matrix metalloproteinases was determined by zymography. Results The mRNA expression and protein level of?-SMA and Vimentin, and the enzyme activity of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in tubular epithelial cells stimulated with IL-1?were significantly higher than those in the controls. Sinomenine significantly reduced the expression levels of protein and mRNA of?-SMA and Vimentin. At the same time, the MMP-2 and MMP-9 activities were reduced markedly. Conclusion Sinomenine can decrease the transdifferentiation in renal tubular epithelial cells stimulated by inflammatory factor IL-1?and prevent renal interstitial fibrosis.

Objective To investigate renal interstitial fibrosis and the expression of inflammatory factor in mice kedney with the Unilateral Ureteral Obstruction(UUO).Methods Mice were randomly assigned to shame operation group (shame proup ), UUO group. The protein expression of?-SMA and Vimentin were assessed by immunohistochemistry and the protein expression of ICAM-1 were assessed by Western-blotting; MCP-1 mRNA were detected by using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analyses(RT-PCR). Results In comparison with the shame group, the mRNA expression, protein levels of ?-SMA, Vimentin of UUO mice groups increased significantly. At the same timre, the protein expression ICAM-1 and the mRNA expression MCP-1 in UUO mice significantly higher than normal group.Conclusions Unilateral ureteral obstruction could induce the transdifferentiation of renal interstitial cells. It may partially related to the high expression of ICAM-1and MCP-1.

Objective To study the distribution of the G/A variant at position -30 of the glucokinase gene promoter in southern Chinese subjects with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and to investigate the association between different genotypes and indices of glucose metabolism. Methods Four hundred and fourty four unrelated Chinese subjects 〔aged (50.8?12.2)years〕 without diabetics were studied, among them 222 subjects with NGT and 222 with IGT. The G to A substitution at position -30 of the glucokinase promoter, resulting in the loss of a BsiHKA Ⅰ cut site, was detected after BsiHKA Ⅰ digestion of PCR amplified genomic DNA. Results Allele frequency of the A variant was 18.2% in NGT (similar to finding in native Japanese) and 19.8% in IGT subjects. Fasting plasma glucose level was significantly higher in subjects with the A allele (n=153; GA:AA=137:16), when compared to the GG subjects (n=291), 〔(5.35?0.59 vs 5.19?0.53) mmol/L, P=0.006〕. Higherfastingglucoselevelwasalsofound when only IGT subjects with the A variant and GG allele were analyzed 〔(5.54?0.58 vs 5.35?0.52) mmol/L, P=0.02〕. In subjects with NGT, there was no significant difference in fasting plasma glucose levels between different GCK genotypes. Conclusion GCK gene promoter -30 G/A variant is associated with higher fasting plasma glucose levels, and may contributes to the development of IGT in Southern Chinese.
