Objective To investigate the effects of mild hypothermia ( MH ) on the expression of my- eloperoxidase(MPO) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX 2) in rats after cerebral ischemia and reperfusion (CIR). Methods Forty-eight Wistar rats were randomly divided into four control groups (n=6 in each) and four MH groups (n=6 in each).CIR models were established by suture occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery.The rats in the MH groups,but not in the control groups,were treated with MH.Rats were killed at 4 h,8 h,12 h and 16 h after CIR.MPO expression was measured,along with the expression of COX 2 as measured by Western blot- ting and immunohistochemical methods.Results Compared with the control groups,MPO activity and the COX 2 expression in the cortex and striatum were significantly lower in all the MH groups at 4 h,8 h,12 h and 16 h after CIR.Conclusion MH treatment can protect neurons by decreasing MPO activity and COX 2 expression,allevia- ting inflammation and reducing secondary injuries after CIR.

Objectives To observe the clinical efficacy of combined treatment with montelukast and intranasal steroid for chronic adenoid hypertrophy in children. Methods 47 children with chronic adenoid hypertrophy were selected and ran-domly divided into drug combination group (n=23) treated with montelukast combined with intranasal steroids for two months and control group (n=24) treated with intranasal steroids only for two months. Clinical efficacy was compared between two groups by clinical score and the result of fibronasopharyngoscopy. Results The clinical scores were 0 (0, 1.0) and 0(0, 0) at 2 weeks and 2 months after treatment in combination group, and 1.0 (1.0, 1.0) and 0 (0, 1.0) in control group. There were sig-nificant differences between two groups (Z=2.404, P<0.05;Z=2.069, P<0.05). Conclusions The clinical efficacy of combined treatment with Montelukast and intranasal steroid is better than that of treatment with intranasal steroid only in children with chronic adenoid hypertrophy.

From August 2007 to April 2011,hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) (n =40),paraHCC tissues (n =10),seminoma (n =10) and cavernous hemangioma (n =10) were selected.And the method of immunohistochemical streptavidin-perosidase was applied to detect the protein expression of Nanog.The expression ratios of Nanog were 17/40 (42％),1/10,0/10 and 5/5 in HCC,para-HCC tissues,seminoma and cavernous hemangioma respectively.Its expression showed no significant correlation with the patient gender,age,serum alpha fetoprotein (AFP),hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg),differentiation,Child grade and TNM stage ( P ＞ 0.05 ).It may be used as a surface marker of liver cancer stem cell.

Objective To observe the preventive and therapeutic effect of Chinese herbal medicine film µwave irradiation on mammary hyperplasia in rats. Methods Rat models of experimental mammary hyperplasia were established by intramuscular injection of estrogen and a small quantity of progestin. Two weeks after modeling, the rats were treated with Chinese herbal medicine film µwave irradiation. Before and after the treatment, mammary diameter of the second nipples were measured, serum concentrations of estrogen (E2), progesterone (P) and prolactin (PRL) were determined by radioimmunoassay,pathological changes of mammary hyperplasia were examined under microscope,and the rate of mammary hyperplasia was measured. Results Chinese herbal medicine film markedly inhibited experimental mammary hyperplasia in rats,and the rate of mammary hyperplasia were 23.4 %in medicine film group and 20.9 %in medicine film µwave irradiation group respectively. Medicine film regulated the concentrations of estrogen and progestin,reduced the level of PRL and alleviated the pathological severity of mammary hyperplasia obviously. Conclusion Chinese herbal medicine film µwave irradiation have certain preventive and therapeutic effect on mammary hyperplasia in rats.

Objective To obtain a lasting and purified cell line of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) by primary culture, and to provide these test materials related research. Methods The primary and transfer culture was done by tissue - piece inoculationand trypsin digestion,respectively. The cells were frozen in liquid nitrogen,and cultured cells were identified by phase contrast microscopy and immunohistochemical SP kit. Results 85% of inoculated tissue pieces survived. More than 90% of VSMCs regrew in transfered culture. The frozen cells could recover their proliferation by several culture transfers. The VSMCs showed the typical "peak and valley" characteristics under microscopy. Immunohistochemical staining with antibody against SM - a - actin expression in these cells was positive. Conclusion The tissue - piece inoculation is a simple method for obtaining satisfactory VSMCs in short term.
