Objective: To explore the relationship between the combinative intervention therapy and clinical curative effect, through used function magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to observe the change of detection data for patients with cerebral infarction pre and post-intervention therapy of acupuncture combined with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Methods: 40 patients with cerebral infarction were divided into control group (20cases, received normal treatment)and observation group (20cases, received combinative treatment of acupuncture and TCM). Pre and post therapy, the patients of every group received evaluation about state of illness and detection of fMRI. The score of national institute of health stroke scale (NIHSS) was used to evaluate the degree of neurologic impairment, and analyze the imaging manifestations of fMRI on patients with cerebral infarction at basal ganglia who received acupuncture combined with TCM. Some cerebral functional imaging techniques, included blood oxygenation level dependent( BOLD), fMRI and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), were used to grasp the changes of relevant functional region of brain and different brain regions connected with function region of patients with cerebral infarction before and after therapy. Results: The NIHSS score of observation group was significantly less than that of the control group (t=5.450, P<0.05), and the total efficiency of observation group (95%) was significantly higher than that of the control group (75%) (x2=4.329, P<0.05). And the differences of the activation frequency, activation volume, ADCavg values and the values of FA between the observation group and the control group were statistically significant (t=5.425, 2.760, 3.453, 5.513, P<0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture combined with traditional Chinese medicine can efficiently improve the status of neurologic impairment for patients with cerebral infarction, and the clinical efficacy before and after treatment can preferably be observed by fMRI.

Objective To investigate MVD, TSP-1, TGF-?1 expression in GH-Secreting Pituitary Adenomas by immunohistochemistry, and to correlate data with clinical characteristics.Methods The protein expression of TSP-1, TGF-?1 in 48 surgical specimens (21 invasive cases; 27 non-invasive cases) of pituitary adenomas was measured using immunohistochemical method. The relationship between the expression and clinical properties was examined. MVD was measured by detecting CD34.Results Compared with the noninvasive group, no difference of expression of CD34(t=2.257; P=0.083) was observed. The expression of TSP-1 in invasive group was low. The expression of TGF-?1 was higher in invasive cases than that in noninvasive ones. The expression of TGF-?1 had positive correlations with MVD; but there was no correlation between the expression of CD34 and the invasion of pituitary adenomas. In addition, MVD count was not associated with the expression of TSP-1. Size, sex or rate of recurrence did not influence MVD and TSP-1 expression. Conclusion MVD values do not necessarily represent angiogenesis in pituitary adenomas. TGF-?1 may increase MVD, and TSP-1 does not affect MVD in pituitary adenomas and angiogenesis may be regulated by other pathway.

Objective To analyze the changes of PAIgG, CD62P, CD4+CD25+ Foxp3+Tr,and IL-18 before and after treatment in peripheral blood of children with acute idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura(ITP) and investigate the function of these factors in the pathogenesis of ITP.Methods Forty-one cases of acute ITP children were divided into the effective group(35cases) and the ineffective group (6cases) according to the clinical treatment. To detect PAIgG,CD62P,and the number of Tr cells by using flow cytometry ,IL-18 plasma levels by ELISA assay,and analyze the variations of these indicators before and after treatment in children with acute ITP. Results In the effective treatment group, PAIgG, CD62P before treatment were 53.05%,(14.18±5.04 )%, which were significantly higher than that after treatment [18.62%, ( 8.36±1.95 )%] and control group[5.26%,(2.65±0.59) %,all P<0.01],and PAIgG,CD62P after treatment were also higher than that in control group [all P<0.05].IL-18,CD4 + T lymphocytes, Tr/CD4+T-lymphocyte ratios before treatment [415.47 ±38.92 ) ng/L,( 25.64 ± 5.81 )%,( 2.67 ± 0.14 )%]were significantly lower than that after treatment [(512.85±42. 17)ng/L,(35.08±6.07)% ,(4.76±0.58)%] and control group[(506. 39±32.28) ng/L,(35.32±2.27)% ,(5.37 ±0.69)% ,all P<0.01]. IL-18, CD4 +T lymphocytes, Tr/CD4 +T-lymphocyte ratios after treatmenthad no statistically significant difference compared with control group( all P<0.05 ). In ineffective group, the test results of PAIgG, CD62P, IL-18, CD4 +T lymphocytes, Tr/CD4+ T-lymphocyte ratios showed no significant change before and after treatment( all P<0.05 ).IL-18 had negative correlations with PAIgG,CD62P respectively before and after treatment(all P<0.05 ). Tr cells / CD4 + T had negative correlations with PAIgG,CD62P respectively (all P<0.05). Conclusions The amount of Tr, IL-18 were reduced, while CD62P and PAIgG increased in peripheral blood of children with acute ITP. IL-18, Tr , CD62P and PAIgG play important roles in the pathogenesis of acute ITP.

Objective To study the in vitro and in vivo effects of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) on osteoclast and osteoblast precursor cells.MethodsTo observe the in vitro effect of PEMFs,femur bone marrow cells of 8 week old female SD rats were collected.According to different treating doses,rats were divided into four treatment groups and one control group.After the treatment,the clones of granuloeyte/maerophage colony forming unit(CFU-GM) and fibroblast colony forming units(CFU-F) were measured respectively.To observe the combined in vitro and in vivo effect of PEMFs,8 week old female SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: 2-70 group,ovariectomization (OVX) group and SHAM group.Rats in the 2-70 group and OVX group were bilateral ovariectomized,while rats in the SHAM group were sham-ovariectomized.12 weeks after ovariectomization,the 2-70 group was exposed to PEMFs while the other groups were left untreated.Then,femur bone marrow cells of the rats were collected.According to the way whether the groups were treated with PEMFs,the cells were divided into six groups: 2-70 with/without treatment,OVX with/without treatment,SHAM with/without treatment.After the treatments,the clones of CFU-GM and CFU-F were measured respectively.Resultsin vitro effect of PEMFs: Compared with the control group,the CFU-GMin the treated groups reduced while the CFU-F increased.PEMFs effect in vitro and in vivo: The CFU-F in treated groupsincreased,whileno.significantdifferencesofCFU-GMwerefoundamongthegroups.Conclusion PEMFs has inhibitory effect on osteoelast precursor cells and enhances the proliferation of osteoblast precursor cells when simply applied in vitro.When PEMFs was applied in combined manner of in vitro and in vivo,it shows that PEMFs enhance the proliferation of osteoblast precursor cells but has no inhibitory effects on osteoelast precursor cells.

Objective To investigate the effects of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) on homing and proliferation-related genes of mouse osteoblasts.Methods 9 week-old C57BL/6 mice were treated with PEMF (70 Hz,1 mT) for 4~5 weeks,while mice in control group didn't not receive PEMF.Bone marrow cells of femurs and tibias were flushed out,and the bones were minced and incubated at 37 ℃ with a type Ⅰ collagenase.Bone associated mononuclear cells (MNCs) were isolated via density centrifugation with Lymphoprep.Magnetic cell sorting was used before flow-cytometric sorting,and the ALCAM+Sca-1-cells were collected.The homing and proliferation-related genes expressed in ALCAM+Sca-1-cells were detected with high throughput microarray and RT-PCR.Results The expression of Jag1 and Ang-1 in mouse osteoblasts increased under the effects of PEMF.Conclusions PEMF may have regulation effects on HSC (hematopoietic stem cell) survival through modulating the homing and proliferationrelated genes in ALCAM+Sca-1-osteoblasts.
