NSS at 7th day, 14th day and 21th day of the control groups undergoing MCAO were 5.50?1.38, 5.83?1.47,5.66?1.63, respectively. NSS of the treated groups were significantly lower than that of the control groups (P

Objective To evaluate the protective role of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) to lactacystin-Parkinson's disease (PD) rats.Methods BMSCs were obtained from adult male SD rats and were expanded, isolated and purified. BMSCs were harvested from 4 to 6 passage and used for transplantation. PD rats that expressed Lewy body and presented lateral rotation were made by injecting 8?g lactacystin into one side of substantia nigra compact part of rat with stereotaxic technique. The rats were transplanted with BMSCs labelled by Brdu by stereotaxic unilateral injection into striatum and transplanted with normal saline as control. The behavior changes of rats and the expression of BDNF, migration, differentiation of BMSCs were examined.Results 71.43% of the rats displayed significant improvement of contralateral behavior after BMSCs transplantation, however there was no change in control group. BMSCs were found in several areas of the brain including striatum, corpus callosum and contralateral cortex. The implanted BMSCs expressed BDNF but no tyrosine hydroxylase.Conclusion BMSCs may play a neuroprotective role in lactacystin-PD rats by secreting BDNF.

Objective To investigate the correlation between platelet-associated antibody and platelet infusion effects.Methods SEPSA was used to detect the platelet-associated antibody of 79 patients with multiple transfusions of platelet,the platelet count before and after platelet infusion was monitored and the corrected count increment (CCI) in lh and 24h were calculated,for those judged to be ineffective platelet infusion,the platelet cross-matching was first done and then received matching infusion again and the infusion effects were analysed. Results 47 cases were detected with platelet antibody positive in 79 patients,accounting for 59.5％ ,the CCI of lh and 24h after infusion in platelet antibody positive group were significantly lower than the negative group, the difference was statistically significant( t = 2. 462、2. 583, all P ＜ 0. 05 ) ;40 cases in positive group had the invalid with the invalid rate of 85.1％which was significantly higher than the negative group, the difference was statistically significant ( x2 = 34. 46, P ＜0. 05 ) ;the CCI of 1h and 24h after infusion in matching success group were significantly higher than the unsuccessful group, the difference was statistically significant( t = 2. 152、2. 230, all P ＜ 0. 05) ;27 cases in matching success group had the effective infusion with the effective rate of 87. 1％ ,which was significantly higher than the unsuccessful group, the difference was statistically significant ( x2 = 4. 34, P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusion The production of anti-platelet antibody was a major immune factor which lead to platelet transfusion refractoriness ,the blood platelet cooperative infusion could be a good solution for the platelet transfusion refractoriness.

Objective To compare the effects of different doses of dexmedetomidine on the median effective concentration (EC50) of ropivacaine for epidural block and investigate the appropriate dose.Methods One hundred and twenty ASA Ⅰ patients of both sexes,aged 20-55 yr,weighing 50-75 kg,scheduled for knee arthroscopic operation,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =30 each):no dexmedetomidine group (group D0),0.25 μg/kg dexmedetomidine group (group D0.25),0.50μg/kg dexmedetomidine group (group D0.50),and 1.00μg/kg dexmedetomidine group (group D1.00).In group D0,ropivacaine 20 ml was injected into epidural space.The ropivacaine-dexmedetomidine mixtures containing 0.25,0.50 and 1.00 μg/kg dexmedetomidine were injected into epidural space in groups D0.25,D1.00 and D0.50 respectively.The volume of mixtures was 20 nl in groups D0.25,D1.00 and D0.50.The initial concentration of ropivacaine was set at 0.40 ％,0.40 ％,0.28 ％ and 0.20 ％ in groups D0,D0.25,D0.50 and D1.00 respectively and then the EC50 was determined by up-and-down technique.The concentration of ropivacaine was increased/decreased by 0.02％ in the next patient.The analgesic effect was assessed using VAS score.VAS score =0 was considered as effective analgesia.The EC50 and 95％ confidence interval (CI) of ropivacaine were calculated using probit method.Adverse effects were recorded.Results The EC50 and 95 ％ CI of ropivacaine was 0.38％ (0.35-0.41)％,0.34％ (0.31-0.36)％,0.22％ (0.20-0.24)％ and 0.14％ (0.12-0.15) ％ in groups D0,D0.25,D0.50 and D1.00 respectively.The EC50 of ropivacaine was decreased gradually in groups D0,D0.25,D0.50 and D1.00 ( P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group D0,the incidonce of hypotension and bradycardia was significantly increased in group D1.00 ( P ＜ 0.05),while no significant change was found in the incidence of adverse effects in groups D0.25 and D0.50 (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The appropriate dose of dexmedetomidine for epidural analgesia is 0.50 μg/kg.

Three bacteria of decomposing lecithin and 4 bacteria of dissolving aptite were incubated for 4 weeks with sand media respectively. Phosphorus in the sand was extracted with distilled water and measured by different methods. It was found that the bacteria have a quite different ability to release P from the materials. Part of the P released became organic phosphorus compounds in microbial tissue. However, a large amount of the P was reserved in microbial cells in a form of phosphates. The direct measurement of P in the extract by molybdenum blue method would underestimate the capacity of the bacteria to release P from the materials. The correct approach was that the sand was fumigated with chloroform and then digested with acid before the measurement by molybdenum blue method.
