Objective To detect supernatant of SD rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSC)and liver cells,and explore the role of cytokines,and provide a theoretical basis for the biological artificial liver and clinical treatment of liver failure.Methods BMSCs and primary hepatocytes of SD rat were isolated.BMSCs with its third generation and liver cells by the ratio of 1∶10 were co-cultured.Hepatocytes and BMSC were treated as control group.Observation the cells′survival and morphology and analysis of cytokine after 48 h were made by RayBiotech.Results BMSC-hepatocyte in the co-culture group grow and proliferated rapidly,and hepatocyte could survive up to 14 days;while hepatocyte cultured alone,it grow slowly and survived only 9 days.Expression of BM-SC-liver cells supernatant changed obviously:interleukin 1,interleukin 6,interleukin 10 were higher than those in the control group,above 2 times,which showed significant difference (P<0.01).Conclusion Co-culture of BMSC-liver cell could induce BM-SC secrete paracrine and autocrine:IL-1 and IL-6 and IL-10,which could promote the growth of hepatocyte and extend the liver cell survival time.In-vitro BMSC-liver cells could provide biological artificial liver cell sources,as well as provide theory basis for using cytokine treatment for liver failure.

Purpose]The purpose of this thesis is to briefly study how to translate different types of anadiplosis in Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine, so as to evoke other translators'attention in this field. [Methods] There are different types of anadiplosis in Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine, thus this thesis first summarizes the categories of anadiplosis structure in Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine, then studies the respective use and mixed use of domestication and foreignization strategy in translation of the three types of anadiplosis structures. Furthermore, it also analyzes the advantage and disadvantage of domestication and foreignization strategy and the scope of their application. [Results] Through research, the thesis discovered that both domestication and foreignization strategy have their own advantage and disadvantage in translating anadiplosis in Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine. On one aspect, translators should spread as much traditional medical culture as possible; on the other hand, translators should also take readers' response into accounts. Although domestication is a major trend nowadays, with the deepening of culture exchange, foreignization will play a more important role in TCM classics translation. [Conclusion] Domestication and foreignization strategy complement each other in the translation of anadiplosis in the Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine. However, because of the requirement to spread traditional Chinese medicine, foreignization strategy will be used more frequently than before.

At present,research of genes and signal transduction pathway for etiology and pathogenesy of diseases is a hot topic.STAT3 signal transduction plays an important role in regulating cell proliferation,differentiation,survival and apoptosis.As a point of convergence for numerous oneogenie signaling pathways,STAT3 is constitutively activated in diverse human cancer cells.Current study suggest that activation of STAT3 signal transduction is closely related to the currence,development and malignant biological behaviors of tumor.STAT3 has been identified as a promising target for cancer treatment.

Objective To investigate the effect of conditional YY1 knockout in vascular endothelial cells on ovarian function in mice and its mechanism, so as to provide a new target and strategy for the diagnosis and treatment of infertility caused by angiogenesis disorder. Methods YY1~(flox/flox)(WT) and Cdh5-CreER~(T2)mice were constructed by CreER~(T2)/LoxP system, and then mated to obtain the YY1 vascular endothelial conditional knockout mice(Cdh5-CreER~(T2); YY1~(flox/flox), referred to as YY1~(i△EC)). The genotypes were identified by PCR. By administering tamoxifen to YY1~(iΔEC)mice to induce Cre enzyme activity,temporal-specific knockout of YY1 in vascular endothelial cells was achieved. After knockout for one month, the mouse pulmonary vascular endothelial cells were isolated, and the knockout efficiency was verified by immunofluorescence and Western blot. Using WT female mice as control, the YY1~(i△EC)female mice after knockout were detected for the fertility, estrous cycle and ovary angiogenesis, and observed for the ovary and uterus. Results After knockout of YY1 for one month, the number of vascular endothelial cells in YY1~(i△EC)mice decreased, and YY1 in vascular endothelial cells was knocked out efficiently and specifically. Compared with WT female mice, the ability of female YY1~(i△EC)mice to conceive and give birth to cubs was greatly reduced; the female YY1~(iΔEC)mice exhibited disrupted estrous cycles, and had spontaneous ovulation and impaired formation of corpus luteum; the ovarian angiogenesis was significantly inhibited(F = 1. 288, P < 0. 01); the ovary and uterus were small in size, and the ovary was pale in color and lacked corpus luteum on the surface. Conclusion Conditional YY1knockout in vascular endothelial cells can cause reproductive dysfunction in mice, which may be due to the inhibition of ovarian angiogenesis by vascular endothelial cell YY1 deficiency, resulting in impaired ovulation and luteinization function.

Objective To investigate the levels of cystatin C (CC) with the H&Y scale and duration of Pakinson's disease(PD)patients.Methods The study consists of 432 PD patients and 513 control subjects.PD patients were divided into 3 subgroups according to their H&Y scale.The levels of CC and Scr were measured.The statistics analysis was used to evaluate their associations.Results In PD and control groups, CC concentrations were significantly different (P ＜ 0.05), and Scr concentrations in two study groups were not significantly different(P ＞ 0.05).PD in each subgroup, CC concentrations in the medium group were significantly higher than the early and control groups, and CC in the late group was significantly higher than the other two subgroups.Rank correlation analysis and comparison of CC concentration and duration and H&Y score showed that CC concentration was positively correlated with the duration of PD(r =0.209, P ＜0.01), and that CC concentration and H&Y score were significantly positively correlated (r =0.618, P ＜0.01).Conclusions There was a certain correlation between CC levels and PD, and CC levels of PD patients were significantly higher.There was no significant increased CC in the initial stages of the disease, perhaps CC was not necessary cause of the onset of PD.However, the level of CC with H&Y stage and duration were positively correlated, perhaps CC may be involved in the process of disease progression, because high level of CC may increase PD patient's condition.

Febrile seizure (FS) is the most common type of seizures in infants, toddler, and preschool children. Inlfamma-tory mediators as triggers of fever are considered to be involved in the occurrence of such seizures. There is evidence that FS is accompanied by inlfammation. The potential role of inlfammatory mediators in the development of epilepsy after long term FS has not been fully determined. In this article the inlfammatory reaction, febrile convulsion, and the occurrence of secondary epi-lepsy will be reviewed. The progress in research of the interaction among them at home and abroad will be explored.
