This paper mainly discussed how Chinese archaic ideologist realize emotionality. The contents include five aspects: emotionality is related to human nature and morality; Chinese pay more attention to cultivate himself according to morality, control his emotion and need, keep harmonious relationship with others, emotionality is in association with or- gans. The author thought that the meaning of Chinese emotionality is not only the emotional reaction of oneself, but in- volves comprehensive features of individual emotional response, dealing with matters and behaviors, and it is closely relat- ed to the cultivation of morality and human nature and relative to human nature and morality. Chinese opinion is different from western psychologists’thoughts.

BACKGROUND:Compared with smooth titanium, titania nanotubes cannot only induce mesenchymal stem cels osteogenic differentiation and promote bone integration, but also be used as drug nanocarriers. OBJECTIVE:To prepare dexamethasone-loaded titania nanotube system and to test its drug release characteristics. METHODS:Titania nanotubes were prepared by electrochemical anodic oxidation, and dexamethasone was dripped onto the prepared titania nanotubes. Subsequently layer by layer self-assembly technology was employed to fabricate gelatin/chitosan multilayered structure on the prepared samples. Scanning electron microscope and contact angle test were carried out during the process of building the gelatin/chitosan multilayered structure. The drug release was measured by a ultraviolet spectrophotometer. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Under the scanning electron microscopy, the fabricated titania nanotubes had integral structure with even tube size of about 70 nm and arranged regularly, and the nanotubes were completely covered and sealed by the gelatin/chitosan multilayered membrane. Contact angle test results showed that ever since the fifth layer, contact angles changed alternately and displayed a zigzag profile. Ultraviolet spectrophotometer test results showed that when cultured for 3 hours, the cumulative drug release was about 32.7% and demonstrated an initial burst folowed by sustained release. When cultured for 24 hours, the cumulative drug release about 52.3%. However, after cultured for 7 days, little drug release was detected. And there was about 8.0%-10.0% dexamethasone of initial loading preserved in nanotubes.

BACKGROUND: Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) can effectively improve the ischemic resistance of skeletal muscle and reduce the necrotic areas during ischemia-reperfusion; However, the impacts of IPC on contractile function of skeletal muscle during ischemia-reperfusion is unclear.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of IPC on contractile function of skeletal muscle during ischemia-reperfusion.DESIGN: A randomized controlled study by employing experimental animals as subjects.SETTING: Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology and the 252 Hospital of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: The experiment was completed in the 252 hospital of Chinese PLA. Totally 14 healthy SD rats were involved.METHODS: A rat right hindlimb ischemic model was utilized, 14 SD rats were randomly divided into control group and experimental group. Control group: sustained ischemia for 4 hours and reperfusion of 1 hour. Experimental group: ischemia for 5 minutes and reperfusion for 5 minutes, after 3 cycles, ischemia for 4 hours and reperfusion for 1 hour continuously of IPC.The isometric twitch contractile force of the right gastrocnemius muscle was measured as a parameter indicating the muscle functional status during is chemia reperfusion. The changes of creatine kinase (CK), malondialdehyde (MDA) in blood sample and the uptake of 99Tcm-methylene diphosphonate (99TcmMDP) in skeletal muscle were measured after 1 hour of reperfusion.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The impacts of IPC on contractile force of gastroenemius and serous CK, MDA and the uptake of 99TcmMDP.RESULTS: The muscle contractile force in the experimental group after four hours of ischemia was (14.32 ± 5.05) g or (25.71 ± 7.58) g after one-hour reperfusion, which was significantly higher than 0 g or (4. 73 ± 2.05) g of control group(P <0. 05). The serous levelsofCK [(104.85 ±9. 84) nkat/L], MDA [ (3 988.60 ± 455.92) nmol/L] and the uptake of 99TcmMDP [ (56.0± 8.1 ) mBq/g per minute] were significantly lower in the experimental group than control group [CK(136.36 ± 14.50) nkat/L, MDA (6 542.90±536.72)nmol/L, and 99TcmMDP (97.3 ±5.8) mBq/g per minute, P<0.05, P <0.01].CONCLUSION: IPC can effectively ameliorate the contractile force of skeletal muscle and reduce the necrotic degree of skeletal muscle. Therefore, IPC has a protective effect on the contractile force of ischemic skeletal muscle.

Objective To develop an artificial neural networks tool and use it to identify proteomic patterns in serum so as to distinguish gastric cancer from controls. Methods Serum samples from 84 gastric cancer patients and 75 controls were randomized into training set (106 samples) and test set (53 samples). At first, samples of the training set were detected using SELDI mass spectrometry and CMIO protein chips. Using a multi-layer ANN with a back propagation algorithm, a proteomic pattern that could distinguish cancer from control samples was identified in the training set. The discovered pattern was then used to determine the accuracy of the classification system in the test set. Results Totally 5 differentially expressed proteins between patients and controls were identified. The five proteins (P < 0.05, m/z at 7567,6742,5262,4869, 4256) were chosen to develop ANN based diagnostic model. The model was blindly tested in the test set for diagnosing gastric cancer. The sensitivity and specificity was 90.0% and 91.3% respectively. Conclusions Combination of SELDI with the artificial neural networks can get a high sensitivity and specificity approach to identify the gastric cancer from the controls. The method shows great potential for early diagnosis of gastric cancer and screening of new tumor biomarkers.

BACKGROUND:Whether the functional mandibular deviation wil cause osteal mandibular deviation and whether the mandibular growth pattern wil change are stil controversial. Vascular endothelial growth factor can increase the endothelial permeability, stimulate endothelial cel mitosis and promote angiogenesis and regulate the formation of bone. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of functional mandibular deviation on the expression levels of vascular endothelial growth factor in condylar cartilage in growing rats. METHODS:Sixty four-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group (n=20) and experimental group (n=40). Each animal in experimental group received a nichrome appliance which was designed by our team. Lower mandible suffered from left functional deviation (2.1±0.3) mm to simulate functional mandibular asymmetry. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The number of vascular endothelial growth factor-positive cels in the sagittal posterior deviation region of rats with functional mandibular deviation was less than that in the non-deviation region at 7-28 days after model establishment. The number of vascular endothelial growth factor-positive cels was less in the sagittal central and coronal central deviation region than in the non-deviation region in rats with functional mandibular deviation at 14-28 days after model establishment, but was close to the control group. The number of vascular endothelial growth factor-positive cels was less in the coronal lateral deviation region than in the non-deviation region and control group in rats with functional mandibular deviation at 14-28 days after model establishment. These results indicated that after the mandible functional lateral deviation in adolescent rats, the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor was different in bilateral condylar cartilage, caused the alterations in osteoblast activity in cartilage, and possibly affected the normal growth and development of rat mandible, suggesting that functional mandibular deviation should be corrected as early as possible.

Objective To investigate the effects of miR-335-5p on the proliferation and apoptosis of osteoblasts which were exposed to high glucose condition, and explore its possible molecular mechanisms. Methods MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts were divided into four groups:control group(5. 5 mmol/L glucose), high glucose group(HG group, 22. 0 mmol/L glucose), agomir-335-5p group(transfected with agomir-335-5p and exposed to 22. 0 mmol/L glucose) , and agomir negative control group( agomir NC group, transfected with agomir negative control and exposed to 22. 0 mmol/L glucose), cultured for 7 days. Cell proliferaton, cell apoptosis, expressions of miR-335-5p and dickkopfhomolog1(DKK1)mRNA,proteinlevelsofDKK1andcysteinylaspartate-specificproteinase-3(caspase-3) were detected using MTT, flow cytometry, quantitative realtime PCR and western blot, respectively. Results Compared with control group, the expression of miR-335-5p mRNA and cell proliferation in HG group were significantly decreased(P<0. 05), while cell apoptosis and the protein levels of DKK1 and caspase-3 were increased significantly(P<0. 05), the expression of DKK1 mRNA did not change (P>0. 05). The miR-335-5p mRNA expression and cell proliferation in agomir-335-5p group were higher than those in HG group and agomir NC group(P<0. 05). However, Cell apoptosis and the protein levels of DKK1 and caspase-3 in agomir-335-5p group were lower than those in HG group(P<0. 05). Conclusion High glucose inhibits the proliferation and induce the apoptosis of MC3T3-E1 osteoblast through decreasing the expression of miR-335-5p and subsequently increasing the DKK1 expression.
