1.Mild hypothermia for ischemic stroke: translation from experiments to clinical practice
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2013;21(6):469-472
As a neuroprotective measure,the application and research of mild hypothermia in clinical practice have been very extensive.Using mild hypothermia has achieved a positive efficacy in many diseases,such as brain damage after cardiac arrest and neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy,etc.Although mild hypothermia has a large number of animal experiments and clinical studies in the treatment of ischemic stroke,and animal experiments have confirmed that it has the exact neuroprotective effect,the neuroprotective effect of mild hypothermia in the treatment of ischemic stroke has not yet come to a unified conclusion in the clinical studies.Its clinical efficacy does not seem to be as optimistic as expected.Therefore,it is necessary to analyze the transforming problems of mild hypothermia for treatment of ischemic stroke from animal experiments to clinical practice,and to provide ideas for the clinical application of mild hypothermia for treatment of ischemic stroke.
2.Changes in expression of neuron-restrictive silencer factor in spinal cord of mice with bone cancer pain
Chinese Journal of Anesthesiology 2016;36(4):478-480
Objective To evaluate the changes in the expression of neuron-restrictive silencer factor (NRSF) in the spinal cord of mice with bone cancer pain.Methods Forty-eight pathogen-free adult male C3H/HeJ mice,aged 4-6 weeks,weighing 20-25 g,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=24 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S) and bone cancer pain group (group BCP).Bone cancer pain was induced by injecting 2× 105 NCTC2472 osteolytic sarcoma cells in α minimal essential medium into the medullary cavity of the right distal femur in group BCP.Only α minimal essential medium was injected into the medullary cavity of the right distal femur in group S.The mechanical and thermal pain thresholds were measured on 5,7,10 and 14 days after inoculation (T1-4).Six mice in each group were randomly selected after measurement of pain thresholds at T1-4 and sacrificed,and the lumbar enlargement segments of the spinal cord were harvested to detect the expression of NRSF.Results Compared with group S,the mechanical pain threshold at T2-4 and thermal pain threshold at T3.4 were significantly decreased,and the expression of NRSF was significantly down-regulated at T1-4 in group BCP (P<0.05).Conclusion The mechanism underlying the development of bone cancer pain is probably related to down-regulation of NRSF expression in the spinal cord of mice.

Neurosteroids exist in central and peripheral nervous system, independence of peripheral glands, including pregnenolone, progesterone, allopregnanolone, and dehydroepiandrosterone, etc. They can be synthesized in the nervous system from sterol or sterol precursors catalyzed by certain enzymes. They play roles by interacting with GABAA, NMDA or?receptors, and have effects on memory, sleep, convulsion, cellular excitability, etc.

Objective: To construct the antheraea pernyi lysozyme(ApLZ) expression system using the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris, to assay the antibacterial activity of the recombinant ApLZ against Streptococcus mutans. Methods:The ApLZ expression system was used in the expression and purity of Ap-lysozyme. The antibacterial activity of the recombinant ApLZ against Streptococcus mutans were assayed by using agar diffusion method. Results:Expression system of ApLZ was constructed using the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris as a host. ApLZ was expressed correctly and secreted efficiently when the native signal sequence of ApLZ was used as secretion signal. The level of ApLZ expression in Pichia pastoris peaks at 96 h after the induction of sustaining 5 ml/L methanol. The molecular weight of the recombinant ApLZ is about 20 000. Conclusion:The recombinant ApLZ is active in inhibiting the growth of Streptococcus mutans.

Objective To investigate the personality characteristics of the drivers in the Armed Police Force ( CAPF), as well as construct a personality traits model for drivers and evaluation criteria. Methods Adopting Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire(16PF) to collect data from 1187 CAPF drivers in Beijing,Sichuan,Inner Mongolia and Yunnan. Results The paper concludes that career personality traits of CAPF drivers are made up of 4 factors: stability and self-control, self-motivation and cooperation, fantasy and openness, intelligence and candor, which explain 50.13% of the total variance. Conclusion The four factors basically construct the personality trait model of CAPF drivers. They could also be of great significance in recruiting, training and evaluating drivers.

Objective To study the curative effect and mechanism of moxibustion on heat-sensitive acupoints combined with Erwei Badu Powder in the treatment of elderly herpes zoster (HZ) with type of stagnant heat of liver channel. Methods Sixty-five patients with HZ were randomly divided into treatment group (35 cases) and control group (30 cases). Two groups were orally given Longdan Xiegan Decoction and aciclovir conventionally, the treatment group was given moxibustion additionally on heat-sensitive acupoints combined with Erwei Badu Powder, and the control group was only given external application of Erwei Badu Powder for 10 days. The symptom scores, levels of T lymphocyte subsets and serum interleukin-2 (IL-2) were observed before and after treatment, the curative effect was evaluated, and PHN was followed up. Results The effective rate was 85.71%(30/35) in the treatment group and 66.67%(20/30) in the control group. The curative effect of treatment group surpassed the control group (P<0.05). Incidence of PHN was lower (P<0.01). The levels of CD4, CD4/CD8, and IL-2 increased and the level of CD8 decreased significantly in two groups compared with those before treatment (P<0.05). All indexes were better in the treatment group than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The curative effect of moxibustion on heat-sensitive acupoints combined with Erwei Badu Powder in treatment of elderly HZ is better than that of Erwei Badu Powder only, particularly in reducing the occurrence of PHN, improving neuralgia and insomnia. The mechanism may be related to increasing levels of CD4, CD4/CD8 and IL-2, and improvement of body’s cell-mediated immunity.
