Chinese Journal of Neurology 2015;48(7):595-600
Objective To investigate the role of platelet-derived growth factor-β receptor (PDGFR-β) in self-renewal of neural stem cells (NSCs).Methods In this study,NSCs of subventricular zone were isolated and cultured from PDGFR-β knockout (PDGFR-β-/-) mice of postnatal day 1 (P1) and P28;the number and diameters of secondary neurospheres were calculated;using 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation assay and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay,cell proliferation and survival rates were analyzed;gene expression profiles were determined by PCR-array analyses;the effect of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) on secondary neurospheres formation was examined in these cells.Results In PDGFR-β-/-NSCs,stem cell activities,such as number (/well;P1:25.9±1.3vs117.6±3.6,t=4.236,P<0.01;P28:13.8± 0.7vs 19.8±0.6,t=2.116,P<0.01)and diameters (μm;P1:67.7±1.9 vs 69.1 ±2.0,t=3.211,P<0.01;P28:33.4±0.8vs37.8±0.8,t=2.354,P <0.01) of secondary neurospheres,cell proliferation (%;P1:73.3 ± 2.7 vs 88.7 ± 3.6,t =2.773,P < 0.05;P28:28.6 ± 9.6 vs 68.2 ± 4.5,t =6.302,P < 0.05) and survival rates (%;P1:14.5 ±2.1 vs 9.3 ± 1.3,t =7.222,P < 0.05),were significantly lower as compared with age-matched controls.In comparison of the same genotypic NSCs,the decrease of secondary neurosphere formation was more striking in P28 NSCs than in P1 NSCs.PCR Array analyses demonstrated that expressions of fibroblast growth factor2 and BDNF were decreased (-2.04 ± 0.25,t =2.653,P < 0.05;-3.24 ± 0.37,t =1.324,P < 0.05),and Noggin (2.31 ± 0.37,t =2.749,P < 0.05) was increased in P1 PDGFR-β-/-NSCs as compared with P1 controls.Addition of BDNF rescued the number and diameter of secondary neurospheres in P1 PDGFR-β-/-NSCs to similar levels as controls.Conclusions PDGFR-β signaling may play a role in the selfrenewal and proliferation of NSCs.BDNF may be involved in the effects of PDGFR-β signaling in these cells.
3.Current advance of non-invasive positive-pressure ventilation treating upper airway obstructive diseases in children
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2014;29(16):1258-1260
The non-invasive positive-pressure ventilation(NPPV) play an important role in treating patient with upper airway obstructive diseases.The use of NPPV in children has significantly increased in recent years internationally.Nevertheless,the paediatric NPPV support in China was less reported.This review aimed to clarify the indications,efficacy and technical methods in NPPV,and therefore searched papers including clinical studies,reviews and guidelines focusing on children with upper airway obstructive diseases who were treated on NPPV.The review concluded that NPPV is a treatment choice for patient who has upper airway obstruction and can not be solved by surgery.The NPPV avoids the impairment to the body caused by recurrent hypoxemia and arousals,decreases the rate of intubation and improves the quality of life.NPPV need to be preformed in a professional children's medical center.Education and training for the parent is the key point of improving treatment compliance.

6.APPLICATION OF PTFE CLOSED-VESSEL MICROWAVE OVEN DIGESTION METHOD FOR ANALYSIS OF ELEMENTS IN FOOD
Acta Nutrimenta Sinica 1956;0(01):-
A method for the digestion of food samples by using PTFE closed-vessel microwave oven has been established. Six elements in the solution were determined by ICP-AES. The effects of various acid mixtures and digestion time were studied. 0.2 g of powdered samples dried for four hours at 80℃ were weighed and put into 50 ml PTFE digestion vessels. 2 ml of 70% HNO3 and 1 ml of 30% H2O2 were added to each sample digestion vessel. The screw caps were tightened and placed on the microwave oven PTFE turntable for 3 min at 100% full power (500W). When digestion was finished, the vessels were cooled for 10 min in a medical refrigerator at -25℃. The sample solutions were diluted to 25 ml with subboiling water. The contents of Ca, Mg, Mn, Fe, Zn and Cu in 3 standard reference materials were determined by ICP-AES. The results are in good agreement with certified values.

9.Change regularity of intervertebral contact areas during lumbar spondylolisthesis and its value in clinical application
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2011;15(9):1694-1697
BACKGROUND: Lumbar spondylolisthesis directly reduces contact areas between dislocated vertebral body and subjacent vertebral body, which is an important factor that decides intervertebral stress and lumbar degeneration. The cross section of lumbar is irregular reniform shaped and there is no mathematical formula to calculate changing regularity of intervertebral contact areas of lumbar spondylolisthesis directly.OBJECTIVE: To study changing regularity of intervertebral contact areas during lumbar spondylolisthesis and to analyze its clinical significance. METHODS: Super-surface of L5 vertebra and sub-surface of L4 from 25 cases were taken by a digital camera and computer simulation spondylolisthesis process and every intervertebral contact areas (Sn) were measured by Image-Pro Plus software. The mean value was obtained and converted into percentage area according to Sn%=Sn/S×100%. The change rules of vertebral bodies were observed from 0 to 100% spondylolisthesis. Based on this regularity, a new clinical stage of lumbar spondylolisthesis was proposed and guided for treatment of 56 cases with lumbar spondylolisthesis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: During lumbar spondylolisthesis process, Sn% changes like a hyperbola. Sn% lost slowly during spondylolisthesis rate at 0-23% and quickly during 23%-44%, and then it become slowly once again after spondylolisthesis rate at 44%-100%, the inflection points appeared at (23±2)% and (44±2)%. Totally 48 patients were followed up, according to Staufee standard rate, the clinical curative effect reached approximately 90%. It suggests that the intervertebral contact areas present with a non-linear change, which is helpful to judge the stability of lumbar spine and guide the treatment of lumbar spondylolisthesis.
