Objective To develop a computer-auto-controlling and analysis system for Tail suspension .Methods Combining the advantage of computer science , engineering and animal behavior into tail suspension test .The “energy”index was developed .The system was validated with antidepressants such as imipramine and paroxetine .Results The measuring principle is based on the energy developed by mice trying to escape from their suspension .During the test, the movements of the mice are analyzed in terms of force , energy and power developed over time .Each mouse issuspended by the tail using adhesive tape to a hook connected to a tail test sensor .The tail test sensor fixed to suspension bar picks up all movements of the mouse and transmits these to a signal regulation unit and transmission circuit , which amplify , filter and digitalizes the signals.The signals are displayed visually in waveform .Activity time, immobility time, energy are continuously updated .The correlation coefficient of “immobility time” collected by computer and manpower was 0.94. Using this system, both imipramine and paroxetine could decreased the immobility time and paroxetine could increased the energy induced by mice ( both P <0.01 ) .Conclusion A stable computer-auto-controlling and analysis system for Tail suspension was established and could be used to screen the antidepressants .

Objective This study was designed to assess whether Bushen Tongluo Fang(BSTLF),a Chinese materia medica formula,can ameliorate the hypercoagulable state in rats with membranous glomerulonephritis(MGN)induced by cationized bovine serum albumin(C-BSA)in order to gain an insight into the mechanisms responsible for its therapeutic effect.Methods Seventy-two male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly separated into six groups:the normal control group,the MGN model group,the prednisone-plus-aspirin treatment group,and the low-,moderate-,and high-dose groups of BSTLF.The model of MGN was induced by sc(preimmunization)and iv injections of C-BSA in the latter five groups.After the development of MGN model,the decoctions of BSTLF and the prednisone-plus-aspirin solution were ig administered to the treatment groups respectively twice daily for four weeks.The rats in the model group received their drinking water as vehicle controls.Urinary albumin excretion for 24 h was measured using a rat albumin ELISA kit.The platelet aggregation was analyzed by turbidimetry.The plasma level of fibri-nogen(Fib)was determined by the von Clauss assay.Radioimmunoassay was used to examine thromboxane B2(TXB2)and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1?(6-keto-PGF1?)of the renal cortex.Results Urinary albumin excretion for 24 h,maximal platelet aggregation,plasma Fib level,and TXB2 production of renal cortex in the MGN model group were significantly higher than those in the normal control group,respectively.Compared with the MGN model group,these four measurements were decreased significantly in BSTLF-treated groups.The 6-keto-PGF1? production of renal cortex in the MGN model group was subnormal but no statistically significant differences were observed between the model group and BSTLF groups.Conclusion The results of this study suggest that the administration of BSTLF could attenuate platelet aggregability,lower plasma level of Fib and reduce thromboxane A2 production by renal cortex in the rats with MGN,so that their hypercoagulable state is corrected at least partly and glomerular microthroimbosis is prevented in several ways.These effects may contribute considerably to the mechanisms of BSTLF efficacy for chronic nephritis.

The relationship between the hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and the balance of nitric oxide/endothelins (NO/ET) was studied. The changes of the ratio of NO/ET and the hepatic injury were observed in a rat hepatic I/R model pretreated with several tool drugs. In the acute phase of hepatic I/R injury, the ratio of plasma NO/ET was reduced from 1.58 +/- 0.20 to 0.29 +/- 0.05 (P < 0.01) and the hepatic damage deteriorated. NO donor L-Arg and ET receptor antagonist TAK-044 could alleviate the hepatic I/R injury to some degree, whereas NO synthase inhibitor L-NAME aggravated the damage. It was concluded that the hepatic I/R injury might be related with the disturbance of the NO/ET balance. Regulation of this balance might have an effect on the I/R injury.

Objective To evaluate regulatory effects of miRNA-146a on peripheral blood CD4 + T lymphocytes from patients with psoriasis vulgaris, and to investigate the role of miRNA-146a in the pathogenesis of psoriasis vulgaris. Methods Totally, 30 patients with psoriasis vulgaris and 30 healthy human controls were enrolled into this study. Venous blood samples were obtained from these subjects, and CD4 + T lymphocytes were isolated from these samples by using magnetic activated cell sorting (MACS). Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-PCR)was performed to measure the expression of miRNA-146a in peripheral blood CD4+ T lymphocytes, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)to determine plasma levels of interferon-γ(IFN-γ)and interleukin 4(IL-4). Some CD4+ T lymphocytes were divided into 3 groups to be transfected with 50 nmol/L negative control miRNA (control group), miRNA-146a mimics(miRNA-146a group)or miRNA-146a inhibitor (miRNA-146a inhibitor group). After 24-hour additional culture, flow cytometry was conducted to determine the number of Th1 and Th2 cells, Western-blot analysis and RT-PCR were performed to measure the protein and mRNA expressions of IFN-γ receptor α (IFN-γRα), T-box expressed in T cells (T-bet)and GATA-binding protein-3 (GATA-3)respectively, and ELISA was carried out to determine the levels of IFN-γ and IL-4 in supernatants of CD4 + T lymphocytes. Results Compared with the healthy control group, the patient group showed significantly increased miRNA-146a expression in peripheral blood CD4 + T lymphocytes (243.81% ± 94.32% vs. 105.74% ± 22.93%, t = 6.653, P < 0.01)and plasma IFN-γ level (27.69 ± 7.64 ng/L vs. 9.75 ± 2.81 ng/L, t = 4.237, P <0.01). Moreover, miRNA-146a expression was positively correlated with plasma IFN-γ level in the patients(r = 0.837, P <0.01). After 24-hour culture in vitro, there was a significant increase in the number of Th1 cells, protein and mRNA expressions of T-bet, and supernatant level of IFN-γ, but a significant decrease in the protein expression of IFN-γRα in the miRNA-146a group compared with the control group (all P < 0.01). However, no significant differences were observed in the number of Th2 cells, mRNA or protein expressions of GATA-3, or supernatant level of IL-4 among the control group,miRNA-146a group and miRNA-146a inhibitor group (all P > 0.05). Conclusion miRNA-146a may play an important role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis vulgaris by participating in the regulation of peripheral blood CD4+ T lymphocytes via affecting Th1 cell differentiation and function.

Objective To discuss the reason of skin flap necrosis caused by vascular crisis of reverse island flap of forearm posterior interosseous artery.Methods Eight-six patients who were underwent reverse island flap of forearm interosseous posterior artery for deep tissues and skin defect on the back of hand between March,2002 and April,2014 were analyzed in this study.Eleven patients had occurred skin flap necrosis,include 5 cases had completely flap necrosis caused by circulation crisis,and 6 cases had partial necrosis at the distal of the flap.Among the necrosis cases,5 cases were injured by the machine injury,4 cases by the heavy crush and 2 cases by the traffic accident.The cause of circulation crisis was analyzed.Results In the series,75 skin flaps survived completely and 11 cases had occurred necrosis,included completely necrosis with 5 cases.The reasons of flap crisis were as follows:for the completely necrosis,2 cases with variation of perforating branch of posterior interosseous artery,1 case with absence of posterior interosseous artery,1 case with vessel pedicel entrapment in subcutaneous tunnel,and 1 case with misconduct venous congestion caused by the reverse perfusion of superficial vein.The reason of circulation crisis of completely necrosis were as follows:2 cases with artery crisis and 3 of them with distortion of entrapment at pedicel and vein crisis.One case was cured through debridement,change of medical prescription and skin grafting;and 4 cases were cured with other flap repair technique.For the partial necrosis,2 cases with variation of perforating branch of posterior interosseous artery,1 case with excessively narrow entrapment at pedicel in subcutaneous tunnel,1 case with folding vessel pedicel entrapment of skin at the back of wrist,1 case with misconduct of superficial vein trunk and 1 case with intraoperative side-injury.The symptoms of circulation crisis of completely necrosis were as follows:2 cases with artery crisis and 4 of them with distortion of entrapment at pedicel and vein crisis.Four cases were cured through debridement and skin grafting,1 case was cured by the vacuum-sealing drainage (VSD) and 1 case with skin flap repair at pedicle of abdomen.Conclusion The anatomic variation of perforator vessel of reverse island flap of forearm posterior interosseous artery;narrow entrapment at pedicel in subcutaneous tunnel and distortion of entrapment at pedicel;venous congestion caused by the reverse perfusion of superficial vein;intraoperative side-injury of the pedicel of the flap;excessively folding vessel pedicel entrapment of skin at the back of wrist after surgery will cause the circulation crisis of reverse island flap of forearm posterior interosseous artery and induce the necrosis of the skin flap.

Objective To explore the security and its influencing factors on benign airway stenosis treated with interventional of high pressure balloon expansion catheter.Methods Clinial data of 39 cases of inpatients suffered from benign airway stenosis were chosen.17 cases were male,and 22 cases were female.The ages of them ranged from 15 to 83 years old.According to the clinical symptoms,HRCT 3D reconstruction,and the results of bron-choscope,all patients were treated with balloon expansion catheter at different criterions.The balloon catheter with size that slightly smaller than the targeted normal bronchial tube was chosen,expansion for average 1 -4 times,single balloon expansion time ranged from 0.5 to 4 min,the pressures were kept at 3 -6 atmosphere,and the highest pres-sure did not exceed 8 atmospheric pressure.The efficacy and complications were retrospectively analyzed.Results 19 cases were completely effective,14 cases were basically effective,6 cases were completely ineffective,and the total effective rate was 84.6% (33 /39 ),the incidence of complications was 35.8% (14 /39 ),moreover,no deaths occurred.Conclusion High pressure balloon catheter expansion is one of commonly used technology in breathing interventional treatment;it has the characteristics of easy operation,and immediate curative effect,and so on.But if the improper operation,incorrect selection of the case,or inaccurate evaluation of the stenosis during operation,serious complications and unnecessary iatrogenic injury can be occurred.Therefore,it is worthy of attention and further summarizing by breathing interventional physicians.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of intra-arterial thrombi under went susceptibility weighted imaging(SWI) in patients with acute ischemic stroke(AIS).Methods The MRI images of 133 patients with AIS was analyzed,included time of flight MR angiography(TOF-MRA )and SWI.The patients were divided into two groups according to the time between onset of symptoms and MR imaging (group A,interval time<24 h;group B,interval time 24-72 h).Two neuroradiologists who were blin-ded to the patients clinical information,documented the number and location of susceptibility vessel sign (SVS)in SWI and embolic occlusion or stenosis on TOF-MRA in AIS patients.Results The thrombus detection rate in group A was higher than that in group B.There was no significant difference in the overall detection rate of thrombi between SWI and TOF-MRA in all AIS patients,but the thrombi detection rate in M3 segement of middle cerebral artery(MCA)with SWI was higher than that with TOF-MRA in group A(P <0.05).Conclusion SWI performs a high diagnostic value for thrombus detection in AIS patients,especially for the thrombus detection of M3 segement in early period of AIS.
