The present study is designed to establish a xenograft model of human promyelocytic leukemia cell mutant (HL-60-AR) deficient in hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) in nude mice. A solid leukemia sarcoma developed after subcutaneous inoculation with HL-60-AR cells. Comparative studies of HL-60-AR/Nu tumor cells in nude mice and cultured HL-60-AR cells in vitro revealed virtual identity as shown by light microscopic morphology, ultrastructure of cell, cytochemistry, chromosome analysis, LDH isoenzyme pattern, genetic markers and differentiated characters assay. Up to now, twelve generations haw been transmitted in rive by inoculating with the solid tumor Cells developed in nude mice. This nude mice model in which human leukemia cells grew could be considered as a useful model for in rive studies of human leukemic cells proliferation, differentiation and the screening for anti-leukemia drugs.

Immunocytochemical staining technique by using specific antibody against 5-HT1A receptor subtype (5-HT1AR) wasused to observe the distribution of 5-HT1AR immunoreactivity in the rat nervous system. The highest level of 5-HT1AR im-munoreactivity was observed in piriform cortex, septum, ventraldorsal thalamic nucleus, reticular thalamic nucleus, basolateralamygdaloid nucleus, Purkinje cell layer, red nucleus, facial nucleus and nucleus of the trapezoid body. Considerably weaker im-munoreactivity was detected in hippocampus, frontal cortex, mediodorsal thalamic nucleus, interpeduncular nucleus, mesen-cephalic trigeminal nucleus, dorsal raphe nucleus, spinal trigeminal nucleus, the superficial layers of the spinal dorsal horn, dor-sal root and trigeminal nerve ganglia, Very weak immunoreactivity was found in the olfactory bulb, caudate putamen,globus pal-lidus, nucleus diagonal band, bed nucleus stria terminalis, habenular nucleus, substantia nigra and superior olive. The presentresults indicate that 5-HT1AR immunoreactive structures are widely distributed in the rat nervous system and might play impor-tant role in mediating the multiple effects of 5-HT in the nervous system.

The present investigation was designed to study, whether endogenous antinociceptive system is effective on mirror-image pain induced by peripheral inflammation. After Complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) was subcutaneously injected into one hindpaw, besides heat hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia from 1 h to 72 h at the injured site, contralateral mechanical allodynia was also induced at 1 h and significantly lasted for 24 h after injection, which was called mirror-image pain. To explore the effects of endogenous antinociceptive system on mirror-image pain, endomorphin (EM) 2 was intrathecally administered at doses of 0.2 μg, 2 μg, 20 μg and EM1 was given at the maximum dose of 20 μg by the same way, respectively, 10 min prior to CFA injection. The present results showed that three doses of EM2could reverse the decreased contralateral mechanical threshold from 48.03 ± 9.07 mN ( pre-treatment with vehicle) to 200.49 ± 53.68mN, 247.63 ± 49.43 mN and 250.57 ± 55.34 mN ( pre-treatments with EM2 ), respectively, but not in a significantly dose-dependent manner. On the other hand, intrathecal pre-treatment with EM1, the contralateral mechanical threshold was 51.24 ± 12.59 mN after CFA injection, which was similar to that pre-treatment with vehicle. It indicates that spinal EM1 did not have remarkable effect on mirror-image pain behavior. The present results provide evidence for that spinal EM2, but not EM1, mainly originated from the endogenous antinociceptive system might play an inhibitory role in mirror-image mechanical allodynia induced by peripheral tissue inflammation.

The present study was designed to examine the morphological pattern of primary afferent projections into the spinal dorsal horn by labeling the lumbar dorsal root ganglia with carbocyanine fluorescent dye DiI in mouse embryos and neonatal pups aged embryonic day 12 to postnatal day 3 (E12-P3). Primary afferent fibers projected into dorsal funiculus at E13, but did not penetrated into gray matter of dorsal horn until E15. The afferent projections became dense and entered the spinal gray matter more deeply at E16 and E17. By E18 the intensity of primary afferent in the deep part of the dorsal horn increased and their branching patterns became more complicated. Some of these primary fibers were also observed to ramify extensively in the superficial laminae. The projection pattern of primary afferent remained unchanged after birth, but the intensity of afferent terminals increased in the superficial laminae. In addition, afferent fiber collaterals that projected into the contralateral dorsal horn were also observed. They were first examined at E16 and mainly originated from the medial and deep part of the dorsal horn. Around birth, the contralateral projections were also found to originate from the lateral part of dorsal horn. Our results indicate that laminar organization of primary afferents in the spinal dorsal horn is established during the late embryonic and early postnatal stages.This organization then undergoes further refinement to match the pattern seen in the adult.

Objective To investigate the status and demands of prenatal education among pregnant women,and to provide reference for better prenatal education. Methods A total of 750 pregnant women were recruited from 20 hospitals in Chengdu and were investigated with a serf-designed questionnaire. Results 74.42% of the pregnant women had participated the prenatal education,25.58% of them didn't take even one prenatal class. The most preferred knowledge was newborn care. They most preferred to take prenatal classes at weekends in small group. The women's educational level,family income, delivery experience and times of prenatal check-up were the key factors to affect the participation in the prenatal educa-tion. Conclusions It is suggested to innovate the contents and means of prenatal education in order to attract the pregnant women to participate prenatal education actively.
