To explore the clinical effect of alendronate combined with Jintiange capsules in the treatment of postmeno-pausal osteoporosis ( PMOP) . Methods:Ninety-eight cases of PMOP patients were randomly divided into three groups. The combina-tion treatment group (34 cases) was treated with alendronate tablets combined with Jintiange capsules, while the control group A (32 cases) and the control group B (32 cases) was respectively treated with alendronate tablets and Jintiange capsules, and the treatment course was six months. The changes of the clinical symptom score, bone mineral density ( BMD) , serum calcium, serum phosphorus, AKP, hepatorenal function and so on before and after the treatment were recorded. Results:After the six-month treatment, the clinical symptom score of the treatment group was much better than that in the two control groups(P<0. 05). BMD in the three groups was in-creased after the treatment(P<0. 05), and the increase in the treatment group was more notable than that in the two control groups(P<0. 05). Conclusion:Alendronate combined with Jintiange capsules can effectively improve BMD and relieve clinical symptoms in the patients with PMOP, which is worthy of promoted application.

Purpose To describe clinicopathological and immunophenotypic features of 10 cases of histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis (HNL). Methods HE sections of 11 lymph node biopsies were re-examined. Immunophenotyping and detection of apoptotic DNA fragments were performed using S-P and TUNEL methods, respectively. Results Five cases have been diagnosed as non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Histologically variable-sized discrete or confluent nodules were seen in the paracortex, especially in the interfollicular area, which were composed of proliferative pleomorphic histiocytes, transformed lymphocytes, and karyorrhectic debris. Immunohistochemistry revealed CD3+ and CD45RO+ for lymphocytes, Mac387+ and/or CD68+ for histiocytes, and no expression for CD15,CD30 and CD20 in the lesions. Conclusions The presence of pleomorphic histiocytes, transformed T-cells, and karyorrhectic debris in the biopsy of lymph nodes, together with the absence of neutrophils support the diagnosis of HNL.

Objective: Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase gene (PAL) is one of the key enzymes associated with stress resistance in secondary metabolism pathway of plants. Exploring its sequence information and expression profiling information in stress response could comprehensively peep at the protein structure, functions and signal network of plant stress resistance. Methods: The full cDNA length of PAL from Bletilla striata was cloned by RT-PCR and RACE approaches. Physicochemical properties and conserved domain of BsPAL protein were determined by a series of bioinformatics tools as Protparam, SOPMA, SWISS-MODEL, etc. Multiple alignment and phylogenetic tree were achieved by DNAMAN and MEGA Software, respectively. The qPCR was employed to examine the expression profiles of BsPAL under exogenous hormone stress. Results: The full cDNA of BsPAL was 2 708 bp, encoding a 797 amino-acid protein with a molecular weight of 86 216.94 and an isoelectric point (pI) of 6.24. The BsPAL protein included the typical structural domain and active site of PALs in other plants, and without transmembrane region, which was more homologous with PALs of Dendrobium officinale and Phalaenopsis aphrodita. The qPCR Results: revealed the expression level of BsPAL in roots was much higher than that in leaves and stems. Under MeJA treatment, the expression trend of BsPAL was first gradually ascending and then descending, while SA treatment had the reverse effect. Conclusion: The BsPAL’s sequence characterizing, expression profiling and responding patterns against SA and MEJA provided a research basis for elucidating the metabolic pathways of phenylpropanoid and hormone signaling research in B. striata.
