To study the effects of growth hormone on function of T lymphocytes. Methods: Tne expression plasmid PcDNA-GHcDNA was constructed,then the plasmids were transfected into Jurkat cells,on the other hand,Jurkat cells were treated with different doses ofrhGH, to investigate the effect of overexpression GH and rhGH on function of T lymphocytes. Results: Overexpression GH could increase the ex-pression of IL-2R(140％) and secretion of IL-2(160％) and IFN-γ( 198% ) in Jurkat cells after PHA activation,but these data were broughtdown by the treatment of GH antibody. rhGH could also enhancer the function of T lymphocytes after PHA activation. Conclusion: These resultssupport the idea that GH is an autocrine and paracrine factor, and can regulate the function of T lymphocytes.

Objective The female nipple hypertrophy and mammary hypotrophy can be corrected by simultaneous operation to get more beautiful mammary profile. This study is to explore the new methods for mammary augmentation and nipple reduction. Methods The modified Regnault method was used to correct nipple hypertrophy. The procedures included removing a peripheral portion of the nipple and collapsing the distal portion of it. Other surgical technique was also applied for reduction of nipple height and diameter without affecting the central lactiferous ducts. Mammary augmentation was performed by putting a prosthesis in pectoralis major muscle through an endoscopy on transaxillary incision. Results The procedures were undertaken in 9 cases since 1998, in which 8 cases had been followed up for 3 to 12 months. The results of mammary augmentation and reduction of nipple were satisfactory. The appearance was fine with inconspicous scars, and there were no complications related to surgery. Conclusion The procedures for simultaneous plasty of the nipple hypertrophy and mammary hypotrophy are safe, simple and effective. [

Objective To attempt to achieve a more satisfactory results in correcting the unilateral cleft lip nasal deformities caused by deficiency of the maxilla and collapse of the alar cartilage, using onlay implantation and stable fixation for implants. Methods Since 1996, the authors had implanted rib cartilage (12 cases), rib bone and cartilage (4 cases), silicon rubber (8 cases), skull bone and ePTFE (one case each) in total 26 patients with moderate to severe nasal deformities of unilateral cleft lip to elevate the retro-position alar base in hypoplastic maxillar area and to augment the buckled lateral alar cartilage in effected side. All implants were fixed by absorbable sutures on alar cartilage, and titanic screw and/or plate on maxilla under alar base. Results All wounds recovered without any complication. During 3 to 18 months follow-up postoperatively in 19 cases, the nasal appearences were significantly improved. The implants still provided support for the depressed alar base and the collapsed alar cartilage without obvious displacement, absorption and rejection. Conclusion The onlay implantation and stable fixation using suture and rigid fixation of titanic screw and/or plate for implants is reasonably good in nasal deformity correction of unilateral cleft lip advocated. The definitive effects and well-maintenance of the implant dimension and position have been documented.

Objective To study the expression of Fas associated phosphatase-1(FAP-1)in cerebral cortex and hippocampus after cerebral ischemia in rats.Methods The distribution and quantity of FAP-1 immunological positive cells in the brain were observed with immunohistochemistry method after focal ischemia.Results The number of FAP-1 positive cells in cerebral cortex and hippocampal gyrus of cerebral ischemia rats were 10.76?1.23 and 9.24?0.87,obviously higher than sham operation group(4.12?0.36,3.83?0.43)(all P

Objective:To study the effects of hormones on expression of GH gene in T lymphocyte.Methods:PGL2 GH Lucaluciferase reporter gene expression plasmid with hGH gene promotor was constructed and was transfected into Jurkat cells,Hormones were put into the medium of cell culture.Results:The expression of luciferase in Jurkat cells could be inhibited by different doses of hGH and GHRH (P

Objective To investigate the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of toothache drop pills. Methods The acute inflammatory models such as xylene-induced ear edema and egg white-induced paw edema and the chronic inflammatory model granuloma induced by cotton pellet implantation were used in researching the inflammatory effects of toothache drop pills. Meanwhile, the analgesic effects of toothache drop pills were observed by hot plate and acetic acid writhing test. Results Compared with the blank control group,the degree of ear swelling in mice in the positive control group, toothache drop pills middle and high dose group (2.56 ± 1.35 mg, 4.26 ± 1.21 mg, 3.23 ± 1.25 mg vs. 8.25 ± 1.21 mg) were lower than the blank control group (P<0.05). 120 minutes after administration,compared with the blank control group, the degree of paw swelling in mice in the positive control group, toothache drop pills middle and high dose group (23.54 ± 9.12 mg, 27.58 ± 9.14 mg, 21.25 ± 8.45 mg vs.39.54 ± 8.89 mg) were lower than the blank control group (P<0.05). Granuloma swelling quality in mice caused by cotton in the positive control group, toothache drop pills middle and high dose group (6.51 ± 2.58 mg, 7.82 ± 1.57 mg, 6.58 ± 3.47 mg vs. 13.58 ± 3.25 mg) were lower than the blank control group (P<0.05). The threshold of pain in mice in the positive control group, toothache drop pills middle and high dose group (20.86 ± 2.58 s, 20.25 ± 2.14 s, 20.75 ± 1.78 s vs.17.21 ± 3.31 s) were increased (P<0.05). The number of mice writhing in the positive control group, toothache drop pills middle and high dose group (23.47 ± 7.57, 28.65 ± 6.54, 24.36 ± 7.78 vs. 40.96 ± 6.58) were decreased(P<0.05). Conclusion Toothache drop pills had obvious anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.
