Objective To investigate the status and influencing factors of pleasant events among community-dwelling dementia patients. Methods Totally 266 community-dwelling dementia patients were recruited from Bei-jing,Guangzhou and Tianjin,and were investigated with the Chinese-version Pleasant Events Schedule-AD(PES-AD). Results The overall score of PES-AD was (14.0±6.7). The factor scores from high to low were sensory stimulation activities(0.9±0.5),family activities(0.8±0.5),emotional stimulation activities(0.8±0.4) and autonomy activities(0.6± 0.5). Multiple linear regression showed that the severity of disease,without chronic disease,educational level of de-mentia patients and their caregivers were significant influencing factors of pleasant events,which explained 41.1% of the total variance. Conclusion Sensory stimulation activities of community-dwelling dementia patients were relatively satisfactory,followed by family activities and emotional stimulation activities,but autonomy activities were relatively unsatisfactory. It is suggested to choose appropriate pleasant activities according to the severity of disease for de-mentia patients to improve their quality of life.

Aims To synthesize acetylated low molecu-lar weight heparin( ALMWH) and to detect its physico-chemical properties and antineoplastic activity. Meth-ods LMWH was prepared by degradation of UFH with sodium periodate oxidation and sodium borohydride re-duction, then the LMWH was acetylated by acetic an-hydride where N, N′, -dicyclohexylcarbodiimide ( DCC ) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine ( DMAP ) were used as catalysts. X-ray diffraction(XRD)and Differ-ential Scanning Calorimetry ( DSC ) of ALMWH were obtained. The antiproliferative activity and anti-inva-sive activity were determined on MDA-MB-231 and MCE-7 human breast cancer cells. Results XRD a-nalysis showed that the LMWH degraded from UFH and ALMWH synthesized by acetylation of LMWH be-longed to amorphous structure, however, their DSC curves were significantly different. Compared with LM-WH, ALMWH had more powerful capacity for binding water and lowering anticoagulant activity, more signifi-cantly ALMWH exhibited stranger anti-proliferative and anti-invasive activity than LMWH, especially when it was used in low concentrations. Conclusion The syn-thesized ALMWH possesses a low anticoagulant activi-ty, certain anti-proliferative, anti-invasive and anti-metastatic activity. This study provides a basic method for screening of antineoplastic drug with low toxicity.

This study is to investigate the effects of cisplatin combined with heparanase inhibitor OGT2115 on proliferation, invasion and migration of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells CNE-2 and to provide a new target for the treatment of metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. MTT assay was used to detect the cell viability of CNE-2 after exposure to different concentrations of DDP (2, 4, 8, 16 and 32 micromol x L(-1)), different concentrations of OGT2115 (0.4, 0.8, 1.6, 3.2 and 6.4 micromol x L(-1)), and DDP combined with OGT2115. Transwell assay was applied to analyze the effects of drugs on invasion and migration of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells. Wound healing assay was performed to detect cell migration and heparanase activity was analyzed by ELISA. MTT results showed that DDP can inhibit the proliferation of CNE-2 cells in a time and concentration-dependent manner, with an IC50 of 24.03 micromol x L(-1) at 24 h (P < 0.05), low concentration of DDP has almost no inhibitory effect on cell invasion and migration. DDP combined with OGT2115 can significantly inhibit cell invasion and migration. Inhibition of heparanase can significantly enhance anti-invasion and anti-proliferation of DDP.

Objective To examine the effect of risperidone on the mental symptoms after frontotemporal brain contu?sion. Methods Sixty cases with mental symptoms after frontotemporal brain contusion were recruited from Jan 2009 to Dec 2011 and were randomly divided into control group and treatment group. The patients in the control group were giv?en vitamin B1 60mg/d, while the patients in the treatment group were given risperidone 1mg/d. Both groups were treated for 1 month. Positive and negative symptom scale (PANSS) and symptom scale (TESS) were used to evaluate the efficacy and adverse reactions of treatment. Results The PANSS score was significantly lower in the treatment group than in con?trol group at 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks following treatment(difference between groups:F=48.12 ,P<0.0001;Time difference:F=290.99 ,P<0.0001; Interaction between group and time: F=11.91,P<0.0001 ). After time-adjustment, the PANSS score was significantly lower in the treatment group than in control group at 2, 3 and 4 weeks following treatment. In the course of treatment, the patients in both groups had varying degrees of headache, nausea, weight gain and Beckoning. These side effects were alleviated through symptomatic treatment. Conclusion Risperidone can significantly improve psy?chiatric symptoms in patients with frontotemporal brain contusion with satisfactory safety.

Objective:To explore the promoting effects of IL-7 and IL-2 on CD4+CD25-T cells proliferation in vitro and construct a stable culture system in vitro for CD 4+CD25+regulatory T cells from human umbilical cord blood.To compare the inhibiting effects between induced proliferated CD 4+CD25+Tregs and naturally isolated CD 4+CD25+Tregs on PBMCs functional activity.Methods:CD4+CD25-T cells and CD4+CD25+T cells were isolated from human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells by magnetic activated cell sorting ( MACS) system and then expanded in vitro.Four different concentration levels of IL-7 combined with proper concentration of IL-2 were added as inducer and the efficiency and optimal concentration of IL-7 on inducing,CD4+CD25-T cells were analyzed via 4 different methods.Flow cytometry method was used to detect the changes of CD 4+CD25-T cells.The inhibitory effect of expanded CD 4+CD25+T cells on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) was tested by MTS.The expressions of Foxp3,IL-10 and TGF-βgenes in CD4+CD25+T cells were test by RT-PCR.Results:The CD4+CD25+T cells from each groups were expanded significantly after three weeks of culture.The results indicated that use of IL-7 combined with IL-2 resulted in the highest cell expansion comparing to the other groups.It was shown by the inhibitory test that the expanded CD 4+CD25+regulatory T cells could inhibit the proliferation of PBMCs ,but IL-7 induced CD4+CD25+regulatory T cells exerted weaker suppressor activity than natural regulatory T cells .Only IL-7 (4 ng/ml) and IL-2 (2 000 U/ml) induced CD4+CD25+regulatory T cells showed the strongest killing activity.Conclusion:We successfully expand CD4+CD25+regulatory T cells in vitro.The protocol is established in which the use of mAbCD 3/CD28 combined with IL-7 and IL-2 resulted in the highest cell expansion ,and intensely expressed cell phenotype of CD 4 and CD25.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) in enhancing the sensitivity of oral cancer cells to tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced apoptosis.

METHODSThe oral cancer cell line KB was incubated in the presence of different concentrations (0, 0.625, 1.25, 2.5, 5, and 10 mmol/L) of 2-DG with or without TRAIL (200 ng/ml). The cell viability was measured using MTT assay and cell apoptosis was detected using flow cytometry with propidium iodide (PI) staining. KB cells treated with 5 mmol/L 2-DG with or without TRAIL for 0, 6, 16, or 24 h were examined with Western blotting for protein expressions of death receptor 5 (DR5) and caspase-3.

RESULTSTreatment of the cells with 5 mmol/L 2-DG for 24, 48 and 72 h resulted in a cell viability of 25.25%, 69.06%, and 59.19%, respectively. Combined treatment with 5 mmol/L 2-DG with TRAIL for 24 significantly enhanced the cell apoptotic rate (72.5%) as compared to the rate induced by TRAIL alone (45.3%) and by 2-DG (15.9%) alone. 2-DG treatment markedly up-regulated DR5 and caspase-3 expression and enhanced the inhibitory effect of TRAIL on cell colony formation.

CONCLUSION2-DG sensitizes oral cancer cells to TRAIL- induced apoptosis by up-regulating DR5 and caspase-3 expressions.
