To improve the extraction of solanesol from tobacco waste, we developed an enzymatic cell wall-breaking process with combined cellulase and ligninase. The effects of reaction time, temperature, pH and enzyme/substrate ratio were determined. The results show that the catalytic effect was better than either single enzyme when the ratio of cellulase to ligninase was 15:1 (U/U). Under the optimized conditions of 175 U/g (enzymes/substrate), tobacco to water 1:5 (W/W), temperature 40 degrees C and pH 6.0, the concentration of solanesol in the solution could reach 0.33 g/L after 8 h. And the average leaching rate reached 96.53% which was 1.68 times of the extraction methods of chemical reflux. It provides new way for the extraction of solanesol from tobacco waste, and worthwhile to be further explored.

Objective To observe the effect and safety of pleural effusion treated by closed thoracic drainage with micro-catheter. Methods A total of 64 cases with pleural effusion were randomly divided into conventional therapy group ( control group ) and closed thoracic drainage with micro-catheter group ( treatment group) , each group including( 32 cases ). Control group were treated with drainage of thoracic puncture interruptedly while treatment group treated by closed thoracic drainage with micro-catheter. Results Both two therapeutic methods could reduce pleural effusion, but obvious effective rate of treatment group was higher than that of control group( P < 0.05 ). Meanwhile, the rate of pleural reaction and treatment cost in treatment group were lower than that in control group. Conclusion Closed thoracic drainage with micro-catheter was effective, lower treatment cost and lower complications. Moreover, it could reduce medical risk.

Objective To investigate relationship between the variation degree of platelet mitochondria in rats with severe hemorrhagic shock and the degree of shock.Methods Thirty-six Wistar rats were divided into sham group,shock 30,60,and 120 minutes groups,shock 120 minutes + normal saline (NS) + blood reinfusion group (NS group) and shock 120 minutes + polydatin (PD) + blood reinfusion group (PD group) according to random number table,with six rats per group.Content of ATP in platelets was detected by fluorescein-luciferase assay kit; structure of platelet mitochondria by electron microscope; state of mitochondrial permeability transition pore by Calcein-AM and CoCl2 ; change of mitochondrial membrane potential (△Ψm) by JC-1 mitochondrial membrane potential kit; lipid hydroperoxide (LPO) in platelets by LPO assay kit; stability of platelet lysosomes by acridine orange (AO).Results ATP released from platelets was reduced significantly in shock 60 minutes group (P <0.01) and with the prolong of shock period,further reduction was observed,particularly in NS group [(50.75 ± 9.15)% of normal value].Mitochondrial swelling with poorly defined crista structure,declined △Ψ and low lysosome stability (pale cells were increased) were observed in shock 30 minutes group.Calcein fluorescence in mitochondria was faded in shock 60 minutes group (P < 0.01).Whereas in PD group,all the above indices presented some recovery with ATP level returned to nearly (79.57 ± 8.48) % of normal value in particular.Conclusions Platelet mitochondrial dysfunction takes place at 30-60 minutes following severe shock.Hence,it may be served as an non-invasive index for the diagnose and treatment of severe shock.

Hypoxia is the combined result of tumor over-growth and vascular structural abnormalities.Hypoxia is related to tumor invasiveness,radioresistance,and chemoresistance.18F-fluoromisoni-dzole (18F-FMISO) can selectively bind to hypoxic tissues of malignant tumors,and is thus useful for imaging of tumor hypoxia in cancer diagnosis and treatment.This review summarizes the state-of-art research of 18F-FMISO in comparison with other hypoxic agents when applied to animals and clinical studies.

Objective To explore the effects of Yishen Capsule on the soluble endothelium protein C receptor (sEPCR) and P-selectin (CD62P) as well as the serum levels of immunoglobulin (Ig) and complement 3 (C3) in patients with chronic glomerulonephritis (CGN). Methods The changes of sEPCR and CD62P levels in plasma as well as Ig and C3 levels in serum were assessed in 40 normal subjects and 78 patients before and after treatment by double-antibody enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, flow cytometry and immunoturbidimetry, respectively. Results Compared with those in normal group before treatment, the levels of sEPCR and CD62P in plasma as well as IgA in serum increased obviously (P<0.01), and the levels of IgG and IgM as well as C3 in serum decreased significantly in CGN patients (P<0.01). After three months' treatment with Yishen Capsule, the levels of sEPCR and CD62P in plasma and IgA in serum decreased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the levels of IgG and IgM in plasma as well as C3 in serum increased obviously (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion The mechanism of Yishen Capsule's effect in treating patients with CGN may be correlated with decreasing sEPCR and CD62P levels in plasma as well as regulating the levels of Ig in serum and C3.

Objective:To screen the factors that were conducive to prolonging the effective half-life of 131I, and to provide a basis for selecting more suitable patients for the treatment of hyperthyroidism with lithium carbonate assisted radioactive 131I. Methods:Between July 2017 and March 2019, a total of 61 patients (23 males, 38 females, age: 13-73 (37.7±1.9) years) who received lithium carbonate adjuvant therapy before 131I treatment in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were collected into this prospective study. Clinical parameters (serum free triiodothyronine (FT 3), serum free thyroxine (FT 4), iodine uptake rate (2 h, 12 h, 24 h) and ratio of iodine uptake rate (2 h/24 h, 4 h/24 h) before and after taking lithium carbonate were compared by using paired t test. The factors which were conducive to prolonging the effective half-life of 131I were analyzed by linear and multiple regression analyses. Results:Compared with the pretreatment results, lithium carbonate treatment significantly improved the 24 h iodine uptake rate ((74.82±2.69)% vs (82.38±2.33)%; t=2.674, P=0.010), decreased the ratio of 4 h/24 h iodine uptake rate ((88.96±2.85)% vs (82.12±2.27)%; t=2.644, P=0.010), prolonged the effective half-life of 131I ((123.03±3.09) vs (130.38±2.49) h; t=2.656, P=0.010), and decreased serum FT 3 ((26.46±1.65) vs (21.31±1.42) pmol/L; t=3.421, P=0.001) and serum FT 4 ((56.59±2.12) vs (49.24±2.19) pmol/L; t=3.289, P=0.002). Linear regression analysis showed that 2 h and 4 h iodine uptake rate, the ratios of 2 h/24 h and 4 h/24 h iodine uptake rate, and effective half-life of 131I before lithium carbonate treatment were related to the effective half-life of 131I after lithium carbonate treatment ( b values: from -0.576 to 0.642, all P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the ratio of 4 h/24 h iodine uptake rate was the main factor affecting the effective half-life of 131I after taking lithium carbonate ( b=0.642, 95% CI: 0.453-0.832, P<0.001). Multiple linear regression equation was y=-49.785+ 0.642 x. Lithium carbonate treatment could prolong the effective half-life of 131I if the ratio of 4 h/24 h iodine uptake exceeded 77.55%. Conclusion:The ratio of 4 h/24 h iodine uptake rate is the main factor affecting the change of the effective half-life of 131I after lithium carbonate treatment, and patients with hyperthyroidism whose ratio of 4 h/24 h iodine uptake rate exceeds 77.55% can effectively prolong the effective half-life of 131I after taking lithium carbonate.
