Objective To study the hemorheology,platelet-activating and hemostasis of severe asphyxiated newborns. Methods Erythrocyte filtration index(IF) ,granule membrane glycoprotein (GMP-140),D-dimer(DD) and yon Willebrand factor(vWF) were measured in 60 severe asphyxiated term newborns and 20 healthy term newborns. The effect of platelet-activating-factor (PAF) antagonist-EGb761 were also obserred. 60 term newborns with severe asphyxia were divided into two groups :treatment group(n= 30) and control group(n = 30). Results During the first day of life the IF,GMP-140,vWF and DD of the severe asphyxiated newborns increased significantly compared with those of healthy newborns(P0.05). Conclusion 1. Severe asphyx iated newborns vary in hemorheology,platelet-activating and hemostasis,which leads to disturbance of microcirculation and organ injury. 2. PAF plays a role in the pathophysiologic process, and PAF antagonist can improve the microcirculation of severe asphyxiated newborns.

Objective To investigate the effect of exogenous GAs on learning and memory capability of hypoxic-ischemic(HI) brain damage rats. Methods After ligation of the right carotid artery of 7-day old male SD rats and waiting for 4 hours of recovery, the rats were exposed to 8% oxygen-92% nitrogen gas mixture for 2 hours. The HI animals were randomly divided into 3 groups. GAs-treated group 1: animals were injected i.p. GAs immediately after HI every 12 hours for 4 doses with 50 mg/kg, followed by a 2 weeks consecutive daily injections at dose of 30 mg/kg/day. GAs treated group 2: rats received GAs 50 mg/kg immediately after HI every 12 hours for 4 doses, followed by injection of saline in the same volums for 2 weeks. Control group: rats received saline in the equivalent volums and duration. The behavioral test starded when the animals were 24 days old. Discriminative learning ability and memory retention were tested in the tri-equal-arms maze . The locomotor activity and alternative behavior was observed. The degree of neuronal damage were assessed after behavioral test. Results (1)The number of trails to reach the learning criteria were (39?17), (32?14)and (20?13) for control group, GAs-treated group 2 and GAs-treated group 1, respectively. The percentages of memory retention for control group, GAs-treated group 2 and GAs-treated group 1 were (62?10)%, (64?11)% and (70?9)%, respectively. Two weeks consecutive daily injection of GAs had facilitatory effects on learning ability and memory retention of HI rats(P0.05). Conclusion Gangliosides can enhance the learning ability and memory retention in neonate rats with HI.

Objective To detect the micro satellite instability (MSI) from the precancerous and cancerous lesions (GC) and its effect on carcinogenesis.Methods Silver staining single strand conformation polymorphism polymerize chain reaction (PCR SSCP) was used to screen MSI markers at 5 loci in formalin fixed,paraffin embedded tissues of GC (n=30), dysplasia (n=30), intestinal metaplasia (IM) ( n =40) and corresponding normal gastric tissues.Results The abnormal shifting of the single strand DNA was identified in 7(23 3%)out of GC, in 9 (30%) out of dysplasia and in 8(20%) out of IM samples respectively. GC with MSI was associated with distal location of the tumors ( P =0 044). MSI was not detected in low grade IM tissues.Conclusion MSI may be of an early event during gastric carcinogenesis. It contributes probably to the acquisition of a transformed cell phenotype and to the development of gastric cancer.
