Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the aetiology of sporadic Parkinson's disease but its role in the disease mechanism remains unclear.To investigate the effect of synuclein on mitochondrial dysfunction induced by rotenone.The human dopaminergic SH-SY5Y cells were used as a cell model.The cells over-expressed the wild-type ?-synuclein were treated with complex I inhibitor rotenone.The cell viability,complex I activity,Mitochondrial swelling and O2-content were tested at different time point-1w,2w,4w after rotenone treated.CCK-8 test results showed that the cell viability of overexpressed ?-synuclein(SH-SY5Y-Syn)was much lower than the control group(SH-SY5Y-Ctr).After administrating with rotenone about 1w or 2w the cell viability of SH-SY5Y-Syn became higher than that of SH-SY5Y-Ctr.On the 4th week the results were contrary to the first 2 weeks.Similar results were got when test the mitochondrial function.In the first 2 weeks after roteoone administrating,the mitochondrial function of SH-SY5Y-Syn was better than that of SH-SY5Y-Ctr.This suggest that the ?-synuclein could protect the mitochondrial against the injury induced by rotenone in the early stage-1w,2w,while this effect disappeared in the final stage-4w.

In this study, 31 Notopterygium incisum populations were analyzed using ITS sequences to investigate the genetic structure. The results showed that: the ITS region ranged in size from 634 to 635 bp and base composition was with high G + C content of 57.8%. Thirty-one polymorphic sites were detected from 402 sequences of 31 populations of N. incisum, and the proportion of polymorphic sites was 4.88%, in which parsimony informative sites were up to 12. And 31 haplotypes were identified based on these polymorphic sites. Molecular variance analysis (AMOVA) indicated that high genetic differentiation (57%) existed among population, and gene flow was low (N(m) = 0.38) among populations. Phylogenetic relationships of 31 haplotypes were analyzed using NJ method with N. forbesiias an out-group. Phylogenetic analysis showed that 31 haplotypes from different populations mixed together and did not form distinct geographically separated clades.

Objective:To analyze the relationship between hepatitis B virus(HBV)gene mutation at 1896 in precore region with genotype and replication of HBV and the liver function of patients.Methods:HBV precore 1896 site mutation,the genotype of HBV and serum content of HBV DNA were determined by PCR in 60 patients positive of HBV DNA.Chemiluminescence miacropaticle immunoassay(CMIA)was used for detection of serum HBeAg and HBeAb.Liver function parameters were ob- tained by routine biochemistry method.Results:The alanine aminotransferase(ALT)level in HBV with 1896 site mutation was significantly higher than that in the wildtype virus.Site mutation at 1896 had no correlation with HBeAg,HBV genotype and HBV DNA content.HBV DNA content in patient with genotype C was significantly higher than that with genotype B(P

Objective: To study the pharmacological action of Mahuang Compound Capsule(MCC) (Herba Ephedrae, Semen Armeniacae Amarum, Fructus Schisandrae, etc.). Methods: The study was carried out through the observation of ammonia induced cough model in mice and acrolein induced cough model in guinea pigs treated with MCC, its effects on asthma model of guinea pigs induced by histamine and acetylcholine mixture and on isolated tracheas smooth muscle of guinea pigs were also studied. Results: MCC administrated orally showed significant antitussive effect in ammonia induced cough model in mice and acrolein induced cough model in guinea pigs. MCC could effectively prevent guinea pigs from asthma induced by histamine and acetylcholine mixture. The water extracts could antagonize histamin phosphate that contract the isolated tracheas of guinea pigs. Conclusions: MCC has antitussive and anti asthma effects.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of rehabilitative treatment on different groups of infants with cerebral palsy in different age, sickness extent and rehabilitative period.MethodsBy the prospective method, 90 patients from 3 to 36 months old were randomly divided into three groups including 3 to 12 months, 13 to 24 months and 25 to 36 months with 30 cases each. Every 10 cases in light, moderate and severe degrees were given rehabilitative care for 2 months and 3 months respectively. The personal ADL of every case was evaluated at the initial and the final state. The compared score was analyzed with T test.ResultsComparing the groups of different ages, there were prominent differences of treatment under the same sickness, among the light, moderate and severe degrees(P<0.01). The rehabilitative treatment effect of 3 months was better than that of 2 months. Furthermore the effect of the group of 3-12 months was better than that of 25-36 months.ConclusionsThe rehabilitative care is prominently effective in the light and moderate groups , the former is better and within 3 months is better than 2 months. The younger infant is, the better the rehabilitative treatment is.

The aim of this study was to identify the relationship between susceptibility of children to acquired aplastic anemia (AA) and HLA-A, -B, -DRB1 alleles. 80 children with AA were enrolled in this study. Among of them, 34 patients collected from tissue typing test centers of Nanfang Hospital; 46 patients were diagnosed at Department of Pediatrics of Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital. In these patients, 48 were males, 32 were females, and with average age 8.1 years old, 6 cases were non-severe AA (nSAA), 74 case were severe AA (SAA). The healthy control group consisted of 109 donors who were from the same area. All the patients and healthy controls were of Han Chinese, and all were unrelated individuals. The polymerase chain reaction sequence specific primers (PCR-SSP) was used to analyze the polymorphism of HLA-A, -B and -DRB1 alleles. Pearson Chi-square or continuity correction or two-sided Fisher's exact test were used. The results showed that the genotype frequency of HLA-B*48:01 and DRB1*09:01 were significantly higher in children with AA as compared with healthy controls (P < 0.05). The genotype frequency of HLA-B*51:01, DRB1*03:01 and DRB1*11:01 were significantly lower in children with AA as compared with healthy controls (P < 0.05). Besides, the results also demonstrated that the genotype frequencies of HLA-B*48:01 and DRB1*09:01 were significantly higher in SAA as compared with controls, the genotype frequencies of B*51:01, DRB1*03:01 and DRB1*11:01 were significantly lower in SAA, as compared with controls. In conclusion, HLA-B*48:01 and DRB1*09:01 are related with children AA, and may be susceptible alleles to the development of children AA. Besides, the expression of HLA-B*51:01, DRB1*03:01 and DRB1*11:01 are low in children with AA, whether they are relative protection alleles of children needs to be further studied.
