Background Research determined that hypoxia inducible factor-1(HIF-1)is associated with the hypoxia response in normal organ,and it plays an important role during the embryon development.It is also proved that the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)is upregulated in embryon retina.But,whether the action of HIF-1 and VEGF is correlated is unclear. Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the dynamic change of expression of HIF-1α and VEGF in retina during embryonic development and explore the role of HIF-1α and VEGF along with retinal evolvement.Methods The different embryon ages of SD rats were obtained from 30 clean pregnant SD rats by cesarean surgery.The retinas were isolated from embryon 10一day,12一day,14-day,16-day and 20-day rats respectively.The expressions of HIF-1 α and VEGF protein in retina were semi-quantitatively and qualitatively determined by immunochemistry,and the expressions of HIF-l α and VEGF mRNA in retina with different-embryon-phase and adult rats were detected by RT-PCR. Results The hishly level of expression of HIF-1 α and VEGF protein were found in the cellular nuclei and cytoplasm of retina in embryon 10一and 12-day rats.With the increase of embryon age.the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF protein in retina lowed(F=56.70,P<0.01；F=60.78.P<0.01).Compared with the adult rats,the expressions of HIF-1α and VEGF protein in retina were higher from embryon 0-day through 20-day rats(all P<0.01).The significantly positive correlation was found in the expression level between HIF-1α and VEGF protein throughout the experimental duration(r=0.96,P=0.00).Followed the same pattern,the expression levels of HIF-1α and VEGF mRNA in retinas were also enhanced in the embryon 10- and 12-day rats.Identically,a gradually weakened trend was seen in the expressions of HIF-1 α and VEGF mRNA in retinas as the increase of gestational age of rats(F=68.84,P<0.01；F=96.49,P<0.01),and the exDressions of HIF-1 α and VEGF mRNA decreased in the adult rats compared with different embryon-phase rats,showing a statistically significant difference between them(all P<0.01). Conclusion The expressions of HIF-1 αand VEGF in retina appear a dynamic alteration from hish to low during the embryonic development of rat retina,indicating that HIF-1α/VEGF pathway might participate in the process of embryo development of rat retina.

Objective To study the distribution of IL-10 and TNF gene polymorphisms in patients with gastroduodenal diseases in Hubei Han ethnic and their association with Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection. Methods Six hundred and five patients with gastroduedenal diseases (196 chronic gastritis, 189 gastroduodenal ulcer and 220 gastric cancer) as well as 624 healthy controls were genotyped with PCR-RFLP method for IL-10-1082,-819,-592 and TNFα-308, lymphotoxin-α (LTα) Nco Ⅰ and AspH Ⅰ gene polymorphisms. Hp infection status was determined with ELLS& Results (1) There was significant difference of IL-10-1082 AG + GG genotype among the gastric cancer group with the non-malignant gastric diseases groups and healthy control group (P <0. 05). There was no significant difference of IL-10-592 and -819 gene polymorphisms among gastric cancer patients,non-malignant gastric disease patients and healthy controls (P>0. 05). The genotype frequencies of IL-10-819 were the same as those of IL-10-592. (2) Frequency of IL-10-1082 AG + GG genotype in gastric cancer patients with positive Hp was significantly higher than that in the other three groups (P < 0. 05). (3) Frequency of LTα Nco I AG genotype in gastric cancer patients with Hp infection was signiilcandy higher than that in Hp positive healthy controls (P < 0. 05). There were no other associations between TNFα-308, LTα Nco Ⅰ and AspH Ⅰ gene polymorphisms and Hp infection in gastroduodenal diseases. Conclusions (1) Allele AG + GG of IL-10-1082 was associated with gastric cancer in Han nationality of Hubei province. (2) IL-10-1082 AG + GG,LTct Nco ⅠAG heterozygous genotype may be associated with Hp infection in patients with gastric cancer in Han nationality of Hubei province.

BACKGROUND:Mesenchymal stem cel s are the seed cel s for tendon tissue engineering which can be obtained in large quantities, but how to induce in vitro is a key technology.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of platelet-rich plasma on the proliferation and col agen production of in vitro cultured mesenchymal stem cel s.
METHODS:The rabbit mesenchymal stem cel s were separated ad cultured. The high-dose platelet-rich plasma group, middle-dose platelet-rich plasma group and low-dose platelet-rich plasma group were set to induce the mesenchymal stem cel s, and the blank control group was set as control.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The proliferation of mesenchymal stem cel s in the high-dose platelet-rich plasma group, middle-dose platelet-rich plasma group and low-dose platelet-rich plasma group was high, and in rapid growth with big increase amplitude, and there was no significant difference in the proliferation when compared with the blank control group (P<0.05). The effect was positively correlated with the culture time, and after cultured for a certain time, the effect was in dose-dependent manner, as higher dose platelet-rich plasma had more significant effect on the proliferation of the cel s. The results indicate that platelet-rich plasma can significantly promote the synthesis of col agen type Ⅰ and Ⅲ of mesenchymal stem cel s, the higher the dose, the more significant the effect on the col agen.

An HPLC-DAD-MS/MS method was developed for rapid analysis and identification of degradation products of buagafuran. Buagafuran and degradation products were separated on a Zorbax C8 column (5 microm, 4.6 mm x 150 mm) using acetonitrile-water (78 : 22) as mobile phase. The elutes were detected with diode array detector and tandem mass spectrometer via electrospray ionization source in positive ion mode. According to analysis of the retention time, UV spectra and MS, MS/MS data, combined with the possible degradation reaction of buagafuran, the structures of main degradation products were inferred. The results showed that six main degradation products were oxidation or peroxidation productions of buagafuran. Degradation product A was a double bond epoxidation product of buagafuran, degradation products B, C, D and E were the further oxidation products of degradation product A, degradation product F was a peroxidation product of buagafuran. The results indicated that the established method was effective in the rapid identification of the degradation products of buagafuran.

Objective To observe the influence of early motor cardiac rehabilitation on the life quality of acute myocardial infarction patients. Methods 30 acute myocardial infarction patients underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary intervention (PCI) were randomly divided into rehabilitative group and control group which consist of 15 patients. The rehabilitative group received the individual sports programme and health education in addition to conventional treatment and nursing. The control group was just treated by traditional way. Barthel index was used to evaluate the self-care ability and life quality. Results The rehabilitative group had significantly higher self-care ability compared with control group after 30 days' treatment[(85.48 ±6.77)points vs (69.35 ±6.46)points] (P＜0.05).The rehabilitative group could care by themselves and carry on the light physical activity. In addition, heart rehabilitatione frequency was the favorable factor for improving the life quality of acute myocardial infarction patients.Conclusion Early motor cardiac rehabilitation could effectively improve the life quality of acute myocardial infarction patients which had a wide clinical application.
