Objective To explore the possible molecular mechanism of Ginsenoside Rg1 preventing against 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine(MPTP)-induced substantia nigra neurons apoptosis in Parkinson disease(PD) mouse model. Methods C57BL mice were administrated(sc) with MPTP to produce PD mouse model.Different doses of Rg1(5.0,10.0,20.0*!mg/kg) were given(ip) prior 3*!d to MPTP in the pretreatment groups.Nissl staining,tyrosinehydroxythase(TH) immunostatining,cleaved caspase-3 immunostatining and TUNEL staining were used to observe the changes of nigra neurons,meanwhile,Western blot was used to detect the phosphorylated protein of JNK and c-Jun in substantia nigra. Results Pretreatment with Rg1 could prevent the loss of Nissl staining neurons and TH-positive neurons,inhibit JNK and c-Jun phosphorylation in SN,decrease the percent of cleaved caspase-3 and TUNEL-positive cell.Conclusion Rg1 can attenuate MPTP-induced apoptosis in substantia nigra neurons through blocking JNK signaling cascade.

Objective To explore the effect of incision of the cervix renal calices for the treatment of complex intrarenal sinus renal calculi. Methods 52 cases of complex intrarenal sinus renal calculi with upper and/or lower calyx serious hydrops treated by incision of the cervix renal calices were studied.There were 38 men and 14 women.The mean age was 43 years (range,21 to 70 years).The mean diameter of the stones was 4.2 cm. Results The stones were totally removed in 44 cases.8 cases with residual stones were treated by percutaneous nephrolithotomy. The residual stones were totally removed in 4 cases while other 4 cases accepted further treatment with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL).No blood transfusion and postoperative bleeding were observed.24 cases were followed up of 0.5 to 4 years.KUB plus IVU were conducted postoperatively which showed improved hydronephrosis.No intrarenal stricture and renal calculi recurrence were observed. Conclusions The procedure has advantages of less bleeding,preservating more renal function,less postoperative complications,which has a good application in the treatment of complex intrarenal sinus renal calculi with upper and/or lower calyx serious hydrops.

Objective A lot of drugs have side effects on the central nerves system. Especially in children. In vivo neurotoxicity tests are time-consuming and expensive. The neural differentiation of human embryonic stem cells and amniotic fluid stem cells provides all ideal in vitro system that Can be applied to evaluate neurotoxicity of drugs. This study was to try to establish such a system. The kainie acid was selected to test the neurotoxicity. Methods The human embryonic stem cells and amniotic fluid stem cells were indueed to differentiate into neural cells by a chemically defined neural induction medium. The induced neural cells were propagated in the presence of basic fibroblast growth factor. Immunocytochemical staining Was applied to confirm these cells' neural identity. The induced cells were propagated under different concentration of kainic acid, then the gosh curve were made based on the cell numbers. Results Both of the human embryonic stem cells and amniotic fluid stem cells could be efficiently induced to be differentiated into neural cells. The neural differentiation efficiency of human embryonic stem cells is higher than that of human amniotic fluid stem cells. The kainic acid has neurotoxieity to the indueed neural cells. Conclusions The neural differentiation of human embryonic stem cells and amniotic fluid stem cells were proved to provide a rapid and convenient approach for estimating the neurotoxlcity of drugs.

Objective: To compare and analyze the maxillary lingual arch forms of ClassⅠmalocclusions after extraction and non-extraction treatment respectively. Methods: 60(30 with extraction, 30 non-extraction)maxillary dental models of ClassⅠmalocclusions after orthodontic treatment were measured in lingual arch widths and depths. The data were analyzed by statistical methods and the charts of lingual arch forms were drawn. Results: The lingual arch widths and depths in anterior segments of the extraction group were significantly larger than those of the non-extraction group(P0.05). The lingual arch forms of the two groups were similar in anterior segments, and more different in premolar and first molar segments, but similar from the distal lingual cusp of the first molars. Conclusion: The lingual arch forms of the two groups are similar in appearances, but the anterior segments of the extraction group are deeper than that of the non-extraction group.

Objective:To investigate the effect of ANF, PRA, AT-? and ALD on the occurrence of Heart failure patients and Congestive heart failure(CHF) .Methods:The plasma were measured by radioimmunoassay(RIA) in 163 patients(112 on heart failure patients,51 congestive heart failure)before and after taking Angiotensiin converting enzyme. The results were as foron: ll. Results:The concentrations of ANF, PRA,AT-? and ALD in acute myocardid infarction, Rheumatic valvuar disease, cor pulmonale and Hypertension patients were higher significantly than the contorl group(heart failure)( P 0.05) .After taking ACE inhibitor,AT an extent, the values were decreased-ANF 32.5%, AT-? 25.3 % and ALD 27.1 % , A positive correlation was shown between ANF system and RSSA system. Conclusion: The results suggested that monitoring of ANF,PRA,AT-? and AID with RIA technique showed a beneficial to heart's disease and heart's dysfunction.

AIM: To explore the possible signal transduction pathway of 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium(MPP +)-induced apoptosis. METHODS: The apoptosis of SHSY5Y cells induced by MPP + was observed by acridine orange-ethidium bromide(AO-EB) staining. Western blot was used to detect the activity of JNK in SHSY5Y cells, and the antisense oligo- neucleutide of JNK were used as inhibitor of JNK. RESULTS: MPP + induced apoptosis in SHSY5Y cells. During the apoptotic process, JNK activity increased. MPP +-induced apoptosis in SHSY5Y cells was obviously inhibited by pretreatment with NAC or by transfection with antisense oligonucleotide of JNK into SHSY5Y cells. Simultaneously, decrease in JNK activity and percentage of positive cleaved caspase-3 cells in these groups were also observed. CONCLUSION: The possible signal transduction pathway of MPP +-induced apoptosis in SHSY5Y cells might be attributed to the production of ROS ,activation of JNK and then activation of caspase 3.
