Objective To study the healing response of a tissue engineered bone of bMSCs combined rFN/CDH-BCP in a rabbit model. Methods The biomimetic surface was achieved by immobilizing rFN/CDH onto biphasic calcium phosphate ceramic ( BCP) covalently. The effect of rFN/CDH-BCP on adhesion,proliferation and differentiation were evaluated comprehensively by using cell centrifugal adhesive as-say,MTT method,SEM,Alkaline phosphatase ( ALP) activity and alizarin red staining respectively. A rabbit lumbar fusion model was estab-lished by implanting bMSCs combined rFN/CDH-BCP into intertransverse process space of L4 ~L5 ,the fusion site bone formation was ob-served by imaging means,histological techniques was used to observe the new bone formation and distribution of seed cells. Results Cell centrifugal adhesive assay indicated the adherent bMSCs on rFN/CDH-BCP associated with the ligand density,the biomimetic surface posses-ses excellent biocompatibility. The ALP activity on rFN/CDH-BCP surface was the highest among all samples on the 10th day after induction (P<0. 05). On the 21st day,alizarin red staining showed that the oval-shaped and orange-red nodules,either the number or the area,distrib-uted wider on rFN/CDH-BCP surface. The results from X plain after 3 months revealed a fuzzy gap between material and bone bed,and higher cover rate of intertransverse process space with new bone deposition on rFN/CDH-BCP surface. Conclusion Histologically,rFN/CDH-BCP exhibited as interlacing bone trabecula bridging biomaterial suface and cortical bone of transverse process continously. The bone mass was much more than the ture BCP class. The comprehensive data reveals that when loaded with MSCs,rFN/CDH-BCP demonstrates superior char-acteristics of osteoconduction and osteoinduction,and substantially enhances healing capacity in vivo.

Objective: To observe the difference in anti-inflammatory effect between living rhino horn and rhino horn by the method of comparative research to provide the experimental basis for the replacement of rhino horn by living rhino horn.Methods: The anti-inflammatory effects of living rhino horn and rhino horn were studied by the methods of paw edema in rats, cotton ball granuloma in mice, auricle swelling and peritoneal dye penetration.Results: Compared with that in the model control group, the foot metatarsus swelling degree at all time points in high (440 mg·kg-1) dose group and middle (220 mg·kg-1) dose group of living rhino horn and three doses groups of rhino horn showed statistical differences (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).The high dose group (700 mg·kg-1) and middle dose group (350 mg·kg-1) of living rhino horn and rhino horn could significantly reduce the weight of cotton ball granuloma in mice (P＜0.05).Three doses groups (700, 350 and 175 mg·kg-1) of living rhino horn and rhino horn could significantly reduce auricle swelling in mice induced by xylene (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).The absorbance of Evansan in the abdominal cavity in the middle dose group (350 mg·kg-1) of rhino horn and the high dose group (700 mg·kg-1) and middle (350 mg·kg-1) dose group of living rhino horn was significantly reduced (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).There was no significant difference in the anti-inflammatory effect between living rhino horn and rhino horn at the same dose.Conclusion: Living rhino horn and rhino horn have a certain anti-inflammatory effect.The anti-inflammatory effect of living rhino horn is similar to those of the rhino horn, and living rhino horn can be used as a substitute of rhino horn.

Objective To investigate the possible causes of the different diagnostic sensitivity of voluntary single fiber electromyography (SFEMG) and repetitive nerve stimulation(RNS) in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG). Methods The voluntary SFEMG and RNS at low rates were recorded successively from the same extensor digitorum communis (EDC) muscle on the same day in 67 patients with MG. Results The diagnostic sensitivity of SFEMG and RNS was 92.5% and 50.7%, respectively, with the former statistically significantly higher than the later. The percentage of decrement of RNS was positively correlated with 3 SFEMG parameters, i.e. the mean jitter, percentage of abnormal pairs of potential and percentage of impulse blocking. Among the 34 cases with significant decrement on RNS, 2 had no impulse blocking and the maximum decrement reached 62%, while 33 cases with normal RNS had up to 58% of impulse blocking. Conclusion The voluntary SFEMG was more sensitive than RNS in diagnosing MG even in the same muscle. The blocking phenomenon observed in voluntary SFEMG was not completely corresponding to the decrement in RNS.The possible explanations were partly because that RNS recorded the total muscle fibers response in surface of the muscle and SFEMG examined the increasing or blocking at individual motor end-plates, and partly because that the voluntary SFEMG and RNS might explored endplates belonging to different motor units.

Methods The pain scores,respiratory related clinical indicators change of 81 rib fractuure cases underwent open reduction internal fixation surgery were ob-served. A comparison was made between the surgical group and the non-surgical group of 37 cases on pain scores trend and hospital stay. Re-sults All operations were successfully completed and postoperative recovery was good. Postoperative pain scores and respiratory rate was sig-nificantly lower(P=0. 000),Oxygen saturation was significantly higher(P=0. 002),the proportion of expectoration difficult,dyspnea and ac-tivities inconvenience were significantly lower(P<0. 05). Pain scores of surgical group significantly decreased after surgery peak hours that was the fourth day hospitalized,but the overall decline of pain scores in non-surgical group was slow. The hospital stay between the surgical group and the non-surgical group was not significantly different(P=0. 084). Conclusion The efficacy of open reduction internal fixation is significant to rib fracture with exact surgery indications,and appropriate timing of surgery is the fourth day after admission.

To investigate the anticancer effects of ring C in 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid (GA), a series of GA derivatives featured with 9(11)-ene moiety in ring C were designed and synthesized. The structures were confirmed by IR, LC-MS and 1H NMR. Their inhibitory effects towards human prostate cancer PC-3 and leukemia HL-60 cell lines were determined. Most of the derivatives displayed stronger antiproliferative activities than GA. Particularly, compound 14 showed promising anticancer activity with the GI50 values of 4.48 µmol · L(-1) and 1.2 µmol · L(-1) against PC-3 and HL-60 cells respectively, which is worth further study.

Objective To investigate the effect of glucocortieoids on tenasein C(TNC) expression in nasal polyp tissues and airway epithelia,and explore the possible mechanism of glucocorticoids inhibiting remodeling of nasal polyp tissue.Methods The enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was used to detect the protein levels of tenascin C and transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1) in nasal polyp tissues from intranasal glucocorticoids (Budesonide,BUD) treated group and untreated group.The cell culture,real-time RT-PCR and in situ ELISA were employed to investigate the regulatory effects of budesonide on the TNC mRNA and protein expression in BEAS-2B immortalized human bronchial epithelial cells.Results The protein levels of TNC and TGF-β1 were decreased in nasal polyp tissues from intranasal BUD-treated group as compared with untreated group(P<0.01).There was a significantly positive correlation between TNC and TGF-β1 protein levels in nasal polyp tissues (r =0.68,P<0.01).After preincubation with BUD,TNC mRNA and protein expression induced by TGF-β1 in BEAS-2B cells was significantly decreased(P<0.01).Conclusion Glucocorticoids might participate in the regulation of tissue remodeling in nasal polyp by inhibiting the TGF-β1 expression in nasal polyp tissue and suppressing the induction of TGF-β1 to up-regulatie the TNC expression in airway epithelia.

A new on-column conductivity detection for microchip capillary based on the accessional solution conductor between separation channel and electrodes was designed. In this detection, the carrier electrolyte solution was chosen as conductor to eliminate large drifts of the detection signals, that because different composition or concentration can lead to transport processes(diffusion and electromigration) between the carrier electrolyte solution and mediator. The separation channel incorporated a dual-T and a crux-channel, dual-T was used for sample introduction, and the crux-channel was used for detection. The sensing electrodes connected to separation channel through the crux-channel and obtained the potential different of conductivity. This method avoids integrating the sensing electrodes directly within the separation channel and prevents any direct contact of the electrodes with the sample. It not only avoids electrode reactions but also is convenient for washing and replacing electrodes. In addition, the signals, contrary to contactless conductivity detection, can be detected in the low excitation voltage(2.5-4.0 V) and frequency(700-1700 Hz) range. In the buffer solution of 15 mmol/L MES-His(pH 5.8), the detection limits was 0.5 and 0.1 μmol/L for K+ and Na+.
