Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2006;0(05):-
Objective To investigate the effect of Tetramethyl Pyrazine(TMP) for treating cerebral infarct by observing infarct areas,and to research its function mechanism by observing the changes of the expressions of ED1,TNF-? and IL-1? in the infarction region after focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury.Methods Sixty SD male rats in healthy condition were randomly and averagely divided into normal group,model group and TMP high,middle and low dose group.The cerebral infarct animal model was reproduced by modified thread-tie method.TMP high dose group was administered TMP 140 mg/kg,middle dose group was 120 mg/kg and low dose group was 100 mg/kg by intravenous.Then all the rats were killed.Thirty rats were taken to evaluate whether TMP can decrease the ratio of cerebral infarction areas in the TTC-reacting and formalin fixation brain tissue slices taken from the above-mentioned killed rats,with Pathology Image Analysis System.The masculine of ED1,IL-1? and TNF-? in the immuno-reacting cells in cerebral infarction brain tissue slice taken from other thirty killed rats were observed.Results TMP groups decreased the ratio of cerebral infarction areas,and also decreased ED1,TNF-? and IL-1? in immuno-reacting cell.Conclusion TMP can decrease the formation of cerebral infarction caused by cerebral ischemia reperfusion and its effect is possibly related to the activation of microglia,as well as the immuno-positive expressions of TNF-? and IL-1?.

Objective To assess the feasibility, safety and curative effect of permanent implantation of ~(125)I seeds combined with GP scheme chemotherapy for the treatment of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) in aged patients. Methods CT-guided permanent implantation of ~(125)I seeds combined with GP scheme chemotherapy was performed in 46 patients with NSCLC, of whom 26 received primary treatment and 20 underwent renewed treatment. During the procedure, ~(125)I seeds were embedded into the tumor in all the patients. Three to five days after the implantation, GP scheme chemotherapy started. GEM (1 000 mg/m~2) was given (intravenously dripping for 30 min.) on the 1st, 8th and 15th day; DDP (30 mg/m~2) was employed on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd day, and recombinant human endostatin (Endostar, 7.5 mg/m~2) was administered (intravenously dripping for 3-4 hours) from the 1st to the 14th day. Every 28 days completed one treatment course. Two months after ~(125)I seed implantation, at this time the patient had received two courses of treatment, the short-term effect and the toxic side-effect were evaluated. Results Two months after the ~(125)I particles were embedded in the tumor, all the 46 cases were able to be evaluate for the curative effect. Of 46 patients, complete relief (CR) was seen in 12, partial relief (PR) in 24, stable (SD) in 6 and progression (PD) in 4, with an effective rate of 78.26%. Of 26 patients in the primary treatment group, CR was obtained in 7, PR in 15, SD in 3 and PD in 1, with an effective rate of 84.6%. Of 20 patients in the renewed treatment group, CR was seen in 5, PR in 9, SD in 3 and PD in 3, with an effective rate of 70.0%. Conclusion Permanent implantation of ~(125)I seeds combined with GP scheme chemotherapy is an effective, safe and feasible treatment for NSCLC in aged patients.

A method was developed for purification of 20S proteasome (20S core particle, CP) by combining differential centrifugations with nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (native-PAGE), irrespective of species origins of CPs. CP purified from human erythrocytes was subjected to proteomic analysis by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS), revealing 33 spots of subunit isoforms with different molecular weights and isoelectric points, more than 14 constituent subunits. Furthermore, other four CPs were purified from yeast, mouse liver, two pancreatic cancer cell lines SW1990 and PANC-1 using this method mentioned above, and subjected to proteasome heterogeneity analysis by native/SDS-PAGE (native/sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis), together with CP from erythrocytes. The method described acts as a rapid and effective tool for CP isolations, and the results obtained may be served as a footstone for the investigations of species-dependent proteasome heterogeneity.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effect of Fe2O3 and CeO2 as colorants on yttria stabilized tetragonal zirconia poly-crystals (Y-TZP) powder.
METHODSThe spray granulation slurry of colored zirconia was prepared with different concentrations of Fe2O3 (0.15%) and CeO2 (4%), which were added in Y-TZP. Zirconia powder was made by spray granulation. The powder specimens were divided into three groups: uncolored zirconia, Fe2O3 (0.15%) zirconia, and CeO2 (4%) zirconia. The particle morphologies of the powder specimens were measured with a laser particle size analyzer and an optical microscope.
RESULTSThe differences in D50 among the three groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). Group Fe2O3 showed a significant difference from groups CeO2 and uncolored zirconia (P<0.05). Group uncolored zirconia showed no significant difference from group CeO2 (P>0.05). Mostly spherical powder was observed in the three groups.
CONCLUSIONFe2O3 as a colorant can affect particles, whereas CeO2 has no effect.
