AIM To observe the effect of aspirin on a model of Alzheimers disease in rats and its molecular mechanism. METHODS The AD pathological model was made by hippocampal CA 1 lesions with stereotaxic mini-injection of quinolinic acid;the rats learning and memory was observed by Y-maze; the apoptosis of hippocampal cells were detected by using flow cytometry and electronic microscope; the content of calcium in AD rats hippocampus was determined by atomic absortion spectrophotometer. RESULTS Aspirin was shown to improve learning and memory deficiency in rats with bilateral hippocampal lesions induced by quinolinc acid, to decrease apoptosis rate in hippocampal cells significantly and to reduce the concentration of calcium in hippocampus. CONCLUSION The protective effects of aspirin on a model of AD in rats may be involved in antagonism of calcium and inhibition of apoptosis in hippocampal cells induced by quinolinic acid.

Objective To evaluate the potential high risk factors of femoral head necrosis after femoral neck surgery in adult patients. Methods From January 2009 to October 2014,390 patients with femoral neck fractures in our hospital were treated with multiple hollow compression screws. All patients were followed up for 12 to 60 months. Then retrospectively analyzed the incidence rates of femoral head nec-rosis and the clinical data about age,gender,fracture side,Garden index,fracture shift condition,internal medicine complications,whether to do lower limb preoperative traction,restoration method,postoperative load time and whether take out hollow compression screw internal fixa-tion,so as to explore the higher risk factors for femoral head necrosis. Results Among the 390 cases,352 cases got followed up. There were 45 cases of them ended with nonunionand 49 cases ended with femoral head necrosis. The univariate regression analysis results showed that the age,fracture shift condition,internal medicine complications,postoperative load time and Garden index,whether take out internal fixation were risk factors for femoral head necrosis (P<0. 05). The multi-factor results showed that aged from 40 to 60 years old,transfered fracture, seriously complications,time of loading less than 3 mouths,Ⅲ and Ⅳ Garden index,take out internal fixation were the high risk factors for femoral head necrosis (P<0. 05). Conclusion Patients who aged from 40 to 60 years old and having transfered fracture,seriously complica-tion,early weight bearing,high Garden index and internal fixation take-out would increase the risk of femoral head necrosis.

An abnormal microenvironment which is not fit for the living of normal cells is induced and maintained due to rapid growth, abnormal energy metabolism and self-regulation of specific proteins of the tumor cells. At the same time, the abnormal microenvironment is the guarantee of the neoplastic transformation, proliferation, invasion and metastasis of tumor cells. The microenvironment mainly consists of interstitial cells and their components. There are correlations between the physiological role of body fluid and the physiological functions of microenvironment. Phlegm is the product of abnormal body fluid metabolism. So to discuss the correlations of them may contribute to clarifying the material base of phlegm and will further give new insight for integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in cancer research.

medial distal wall. The root canal length of central and lateral incisors were (12.96?6.46) mm and (11.47?6.32) mm respectively. The double root canal was found in 35.9 % of central incisors and in 27.5% of lateral incisors. Most mandibular incisors with long concavity had single root canal. Conclusion: The root canal wall of mandibular incisors was thinner in medial and distal wall than in lingual and labial wall. Mandibular incisors have higher rate in double root canal and the long concavity is not significantly related with number of root canal.

Aim To investigate the effects of stromal cell-derived factor-1α ( SDF-1α) on cell proliferation in primary cultured rat astrocytes and the possible mechanisms. Methods The primary cultured rat astr-cytes were treated with recombinant human SDF-1α at different concentrations, the cell proliferation was as-sessed by cell counting and 5-bromo-2’-deoxyuridine incorporation assay;intracellular calcium concentration was detected with calcium sensitive fluorescent probe;phorphorylation of extracellular regulated protein ki-nase1/2 ( ERK1/2 ) was determined by Western blot analysis;cell cycle transition was analyzed by flow cy-tometry analysis; mRNA expressions of cyclin A2 and cyclin B1 were determined by quantitative RT-PCR. Results Treatment of astrocytes with SDF-1α (5 -40 nmol·L-1 ) for 48 h induced significant cell prolifera-tion. SDF-1α at 20 nmol·L-1 increased the intracel-lular calcium concentration and the phosphorylation of ERK1/2. In addition, SDF-1α at 20 nmol·L-1 pro-moted the cell cycle transition from G0 to S and M pha-ses, and up-regulated the mRNA expressions of Cyclin A2 and Cyclin B1 . Conclusion SDF-1α significantly induces cell proliferation in primary cultured rat astro-cytes via enhancing calcium influx, ERK1/2 phospho-rylation, Cyclin expression and promoting cell cycle transition.
