Objective To explore effect of hyperoxia and amygdalin on surfactant associated protein messenger RNA levels of alveolar epithelial cells of premature rat lung. Methods Type Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells (AECⅡ) were gained by primary culture from 19-days fetal rat lung. After purified,AECⅡ were randomly assigned to four groups and exposed to air or hyperoxia: air group (group Ⅰ),hyperoxia group (group Ⅱ),air plus amygdalin group (group Ⅲ),hyperoxia plus amygdalin group (group Ⅳ),Groups Ⅱ、Ⅳ were flushed the flake with 95% oxygen-5% CO 2 at 3 L/min for 10 min,then sealed and cultured for 24 hours. Groups Ⅲ,Ⅳ were added 200 ?mol/L of amygdalin at the same time. All groups were in CO 2 culture chamber (37 ℃,5% CO 2) for 24 hours,cells were harvested and extracted for total RNA by Trizol reagent. mRNA levels of SP were measured by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results SP mRNA levels were significantly decreased in groupⅡ compared to groupⅠ( P

Objective To observe the effects of the intervention of Didang Decoction at different times on changes of AMPK signaling pathway related factors in macrovascular endotheliocytes of diabetic rats; To discuss the mechanism of mitochondria energy metabolism regulating the AMPK signaling pathway for macrovascular endothelial defense function. Methods Injection of STZ into the caudal vein and administration of high fat diet wer used to generate diabetic rat model. All rats were randomly divided into the following 7 groups: control, model, metformin, simvastatin, early-, middle-, and late-stage Didang Decoction group. Western blot was used to detect the expressions of APMKα1 and PGC-1α in rat aortic endothelial cells. Changes in the intracellular AMP and ATP levels were detected by ELISA. Real time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detected mRNA expressions of Caspase-3, eNOS, and Bcl-2 in tissue of thoracic aorta. Results Compared with the model group, the expressions of AMPKα1 and PGC-1α in the early-stage and middle-stage Didang Decoction group and simvastatin group increased (P<0.05); the gene expressions of Bcl-2, and eNOS significantly increased in the early-stage Didang Decoction group and simvastatin group (P<0.05), while the expressions of Caspase-3 decreased significantly (P<0.05). The expression of ATP increased significantly and the expression of AMP decreased significantly in the early-stage Didang Decoction group and simvastatin group (P<0.05), and the best effects were shown in the early-stage Didang Decoction group. Conclusion Early intervention of Didang Decoction can enhance energy metabolism in the mitochondria of macrovascular endothelial cells by regulating the AMPK signaling pathway, and then plays a role in strengthening the defense function of macrovascular endothelial cells.

Objective To evaluate the surgical technique and procedures of transumbilieal breast augmentation with an inverse U-shape incision and insertion of saline-filled breast implants. Methods With specialized instruments, the subcutaneous tunnel was undermined to the inframammary crease after inverse U incision made along the umbilical border. The subpectoral space was dissected with a dissector after the advancement of obturator across the inframammary crease. The expander was inserted into the subpectoral pocket to be filled to obtain the high degree of symmetry of the breasts. Finally, the previous-ly prepared implants were inserted after the expander deflated and removed. Results All patients gained satisfactory results with no complications, such as hematoma, infection, implant deflation and Baker Ⅲ or Ⅳ capsular contracture. Conclusions Breast augmentation could be performed through umbilical inci-sion with the usage of saline-filled breast implant. This is an alternative of incisions in breast augmenta-tion.

Objective:To obtain antibodies against amylin from a 'naive' human Fab fragment antibody phage diasplay library and to analyze the specificity of antigen binding activity.Methods:Panning and screening Fab antibody from the antibody library,the positive clones with well reactivity to amylin were selected after five times selection of 'adsorption-elution-enrichment'.Then the plasmid DNA which was extracted from the clones,was digested with Spe Ⅰ and Nhe Ⅰ to delete gⅢ (about 660 bp).The digested 47 000 bp DNA which was purified after separation of bands from agarose gel was ligated with T4-DNA ligase.The constructed expressing phagemids were transformed to the BL21(DE3)pLysS,soluble Fab was expressed in it by the induction of IPTG and its characteristics and specificity were determined by ELISA and Western blot.Results:Soluble Fab antibodies were expressed in E.coli.According with molecular weight of IgG Fab,protein band of about 47 kD was shown by SDS-PAGE.Western blot using the goat anti human IgG-HRP showed their binding activities.ELISA showed their specificity with amylin antigens and they did not react with bovine serum albumin.Conclusion:The high level expression and identification of the soluble human anti- amylin Fab fragment antibodies has been obtained successfully,which lays a solid foundation for further researching about the biological and pathological activities of amylin.
