[Objective] To explore the genetic mechanism of acupoint catgut embedment in inhibiting hippocampal neuron apoptosis in rats with status epileticus (SE). [Methods] Forty SD rats were randomized into 5 groups: blank control (A), model (B), dilantin (C), routine acupuncture (D) and acupoint catgut embedment (E). Rat models of SE were established by intra-abdominal injection of penicillin. With immunohistochemical method, the expressions of apoptosisrelated genes of c-jun and bcl-2 were observed in the vulnerable neurons of the hippocampus 24 hours after modeling. [Results] Compared with SE model group, the expression of c-jun was decreased and the expression of bcl-2 was increased in group C, D and E 24 hours after modeling; c-jun expression was positively related with the apoptotic index (AI) and bcl-2 expression was negatively related; the effects in group E much differed from those in model group. [Conclusion] The possible mechanism of the acupoint catgut embedment in treating epilepsy is related to the inhibition of the hippocampal neuron apoptosis by prohibiting the expression of c-jun and promoting the expression of bcl-2.

Objective To explore the expression of Cav-1 mRNA,S100A4 mRNA and CD31 in prostate cancer (PCa) and their correlation with tumor metastasis and patient survival rate. Methods PCa specimens (n =42) and adjacent tissue specimens ( n =12 ) from radical prostatectomy were obtained from January 2004 to May 2006.The mean age of patient was 71.6 ± 7.6 years ( range 58 - 86 years).According to Gleason scores,prostatectomy specimens were stratified into≤6 (n =17),7 (n =12) and ≥8( n =13 ) groups.Patients were classified as clinical stage T1 ( n =16),stage T2 ( n =9 ),stage T3 ( n =11 )and stage T4 (n =6).Patients were divided into PCa with bone metastasis (n =8 ) and PCa without bone metastasis ( n =34).Preoperative PSA levels of the patients were stratified into three groups: < 4 ( n =4)μg/L,4-10 (n=10)μg/Land >10 μg/L (n=28).12 adjacent tissues 1 -2 cm away from tumor or another lobe of prostate were microscopically verified without cancer cells and were tested for comparison.The expression of Cav-1 mRNA and S100A4 mRNA were detected by Situ hybridization in 42 PCa specimens and 12 adjacent tissues and using CD31 for marking vascular endothelial cells,the tumor microvascular density (MVD) was counted.The correlation of Cav-1 mRNA,S100A4 mRNA and CD31 expression was analyzed in combination.with clinical and pathological fcatures including Gleason score,TNM staging,PSA values and bone metastasis. Results The positive expression rate of Cav-1 mRNA in PCa was 35.7% ( 15/42),while it was 0% (0/12) in controls,P <0.05.The positive expression rate of S100A4 mRNA in PCa was 47.6% (20/42),while it was 8.3% (1/12) in controls,P <0.05.The positive expression rate of Cav-1 mRNA in PCa was positively correlated with Gleason score,TNM stage and bone metastasis.The positive expression rate of S100A4 mRNA in PCa was positively correlated with TNM stage and bone metastasis.The average MVD in patients of negative expression of Cav-1 mRNA was (62.8 ± 10.4)/mm2,and the average -MVD in patients of positive expression of Cav-1 mRNA was (83.5 ±6.7 )/mm2,P < 0.05.While the average MVD in patients of negative expression of S100A4 mRNA was (63.3 ± 12.0)/mm2,and the average MVD in patients of positive expression of S100A4 mRNA was (77.9 ± 11.0)/mm2,P < 0.05.The 5-year survival rate in patients with positive Cav-1 mRNA expression was significantly lower than that of with negative expression (46.7% versus 85.2%,P < 0.05 ),while the 5-year survival rate in the patients with positive expression of S100A4 mRNA was significantly lower than that of with negative expression (50.0% versus 90.9%,P < 0.05 ). Conclusions The positive Cav-1 mRNA and S100A4 mRNA expression,increased MVD are positively correlated with PCa progression and bone metastasis. Furthermore,Cav-1 and S100A4 in PCa may promote angiogenesis and cause tumor cells to bone metastases,which can reduce survival rate of patients.
7.Biological evaluation within a risk management process.
Chinese Journal of Medical Instrumentation 2007;31(4):280-283
Bio-evaluation within the medical device quality/risk management system is a risk analyzing and assessing process. On the basis of data from characterization of materials, scientific literatures, application history, bio-toxicology testing and so on, weighing the benefit and the risk, bio-evaluation does a conclusion to "take" or "quit" the product design. There is no "zero risk" though "no toxicity" always is the most desirable conclusion in a testing report. The application history data is the most comprehensive among the information available, since no testing system can "clone" the human body. In addition, the capital cost has to be taken into account when bringing the sophisticated testing technologies into the evaluating system. Investigating the #G95-1 of FDA CDRH and the changes of ISO 10993-1, the trend to integrate bio-evaluation into a quality/risk management process can be figured out.

Newcastle disease virus-like particles (NDV VLPs) are composed of matrix protein (M) as the skeleton,with the insertion of hemagglutinin-neuraminidase and/or fusion protein.NDV VLPs are reported to be immunogenic and can induce specific humoral and cellular immune responses.However,its relationship with innate immunity remains elusive.Dendritic cells (DCs) are a group of specialized antigen presenting cells,which are crucial in connecting innate immunity and adaptive immunity.In this study,NDV VLPs and murine DCs were used to investigate the connection between NDV VLPs and innate immunity.The DC maturation induced by NDV VLPs (M+ HN) was evaluated.The results showed that NDV VLPs could be effectively taken up by DC and presented to naive T cells.NDV VLPs-induced DC significantly up-regulated the expression of MHC Ⅱ and costimulatory molecules on DC surface,and subsequently promoted the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines.This experiments also showed that different assembled NDV VLPs induced significant stimulating ability in cytokine levels.In summary,NDV VLPs can induce DC maturation,which gives insights to better understanding of VLPs-mediated innate immunity and provide information in selecting preferred NDV VLPs candidate.
