Objective To investigate the mechanism of Secretio bufonis injection on the carcinostatic activities in mice bearing intraperitoneal H22 tumor. Methods Secretio bufonis injection (1.5 mL) was injected into the abdomind cavity of mice once 5 d for 3 times. Cyclophosphamide (0.5 mg/0.5 mL) was injected into other groups. NS (0.5 mL) was injected into control groups. Each group were 20 mice. TNF and survival time of mice were observed. Results Mean survival times of mice bearing intraperitoneal H22 tumor were (28.2?5.8)d for Secretio bufonis group,(27.9?9.7)d for Cyclophosphamide group,(20.7?4.2)d for control group. The content of TNF in mice bearing intraperitoneal H22 tumor were 2.53?0.14 for Secretio bufonis group,3.02?0.14 for Cyclophosphamide group,3.32?0.2 for control group. The survival times of mice bearing intraperitoneal H22 tumor were prolonged in the groups of Secretio bufonis (P

Objective　To investigate the effect of turning scleral flap of self-body over drainage in trabeculectomy.Methods　The surgery was performed on one eye of a rabbit while　the other eye of the same rabbit was conducted with the routine trabeculectomy as the control group. The filtering bleb, intraocular pressure and pathology were observed. Results　The intraocular pressure in the experimental eye was much lower than that in the control group 3～12 weeks after the operations (P＜0.05).As it was within 2 weeks after the surgeries, but there was no significant filtering difference (P＞0.05).The rate of eyes with functional bleb in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group at the postoperative 2～7 weeks .Conclusion　This study suggests the turning of self-body over drainage surgery can help to maintain filtering function for a long time and to prevent complication after filtering surgery.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of Antrodia cinnamomea on gene expression related to aortal endothelial injury of rats with hyperlipidemia.

METHODFifty SD rats were randomly divided into five groups: the normal control group (NG), the model group (MG), the antrodia cinnamomea groups of low, middle and high doses (AC-LG, AC-MG, AC-HG, 250, 500, 1 000 mg x kg(-1)). The rats were fed with high-fat diets to establish the hyperlipidemia model. After the drug administration for 10 weeks, their serum lipid, SOD, MDA and ox-LDL, LOX-1, P38 MAPK and NF-kappaB mRNA and protein expression were respectively determined, and the aortal endothelial injury was observed under electron microscope.

RESULTIn the model group, the contents of TC, TG and LDL-C significant increased (P < 0.01), whereas the content of HDL-C significant decreased (P < 0.01). Compared with the model group, both the AC-M group and the AC-H group showed reduction in endothelial injury and significant decrease in the content of TC, TG and LDL-C (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). The content of HDL-C increased, but with no significant difference. SOD activity in serum remarkably increased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), MDA and ox-LDL levels dramatically decreased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONA. cinnamomea can alleviate endothelial lipid injury by inhibiting the expressions of LOX-1, P38MAPK and NF-kappaB in aorta and better protect aortal endothelial cells from oxidative lipid injury.

BACKGROUND:Stem cell transplantation and tissue engineering in repairing bone defects is a hotspots of recent study.OBJECTIVE:To observe the therapeutic effect of engineering repair on bone defect by auto-transplantation of bone marrow stromal cells(BMSCs)DESIGN: Left-right comparative studySETTING:Experimental center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical UniversityMATERIALS:Twelve New Zealand rabbits with birth age of 10 days to 2months were selected ,male or female with body mass of 2 to 2.5 kg.METHODS :The experiment was conducted in the Experimental Center of First Clinical Medical College, Harbin Medical University from June 2002to June 2003. Self-BMSCs were separated for subculture. 1.5 cm bone was intercepted at middle of radius in 12 rabbits so as to simulate complete bone defect. Then, the left radius defect was filled with collagen sponge carrying BMSCs ( experimental side),which was replaced by simple collagen sponge in the right side(control side). Twelve weeks later, rabbits were put to death and the outcomes of both sides were compared.X-ray assessment was accorded to the standardized stage of bone defect repair (bone repair was graded into 0 to 5 grades,grade 5 implies that bone defect has been completely replaced by new bone,grade 0 implies that no new bone repair).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The general observations of rabbit radius defects,X-ray scanning, histological and electro-microscopic observations.At week 12, callus became strong and protruded to bone defects in experimental side,well connecting with broken ends. While broken ends in control group were only connected by fibrous tissue and no continuous callus was found continuously crossing through the bone defect of experimental side, marrow cavity was smooth, but molding was incomplete. While in control side, no continuous callus could be observed passing through the broteoblasts and new stroms could be observed in bone defect of experimental side, but only a few of osteocytes appeared in the broken ends of control vations: The osteoblast observed in the experimental side seems normal and was rich in enlarged endoplasmic reticula energetic in ,protein synthesis and abundant in organelle.CONCLUSION :As osteogenetic cells, BMSCs possess better osteogenesis property. They can be used as seed cellsin bone defect repair by using bone-engineering techniques.

Objective: To study the reasons and prevention of residual stones after choledo- choscopic treatment of cholelithiasis. Methods:The clinical data of 219 patients who had under- gone choledochoscopic treatment were analyzed retrospectively. Results: 21 cases were found with residual stones in the bile duct after the operations. Residual stone rate was to 9.58% . Bile duct stones of 8 patients could not be removed completely during operations. 13 patients were proved that stones still remain in their bile ducts by T-tube cholangiography and choledochoscope after opera- tions. There were 5 patients with acute obstructive suppurative cholangitis accompanying septic shock, 5 patients with stenosis in intrahepatic bile ducts, 4 patients with stones of in trahepatic bile duct and variation of bile duct, 2 patients with stones in sphincter of duodenal papilla,2 patients withstones and stenosis at the inferior segment of choledochus,3 patients were founded residual stones in bile duct obviously after the operations. Conclusions: B-type ultrasonic scanning and T-tube cholangiog- raphy are useful to reduce the rate of residual stones.

Objective To investigate the effect of intrathecal(IT)different concentrations of ozone(O_3) on pain threshold,motor function and cerebral spinal fluid(CSF)malondialdehyde(MDA)concentration and superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity and determine if ozone is toxic to central nervous system(CNS).Methods Thirty New Zealand white rabbits of both sexes aged 3-5 months,weighing 2.5-3.0 kg were randomly divided in 5 groups(n=6 each):groupⅠcontrol;groupⅡpure O_2;groupⅢO_2-O_3 30;groupⅣO_2-O_3 50 and groupⅤO_2-O_3 80.The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital.Cerebello-medullary cistern was punctured for IT administration of O_2 and O_3.In groupⅡ2 ml of pure oxygen(O_2)(for medical use)was injected IT.In groupⅢ,ⅣandⅤ2 ml of ozone(O_3)30,50 and 80 mg?L~(-1) was injected IT respectively.Ozone was manufactured by ozone generator(Ozoneline Co,Italy).Before and one day after IT O_3 paw withdrawal latency to heat(PWHL)and to mechanical stimulation(yon Frey filament)(PWML)were measured and motor function was assessed(1=normal,4=severe motor dysfunction and weakness).CSF was obtained at 1,2,4 h after IT O_3 for determination of MDA concentration and SOD activity.Results IT administration of the 3 concentrations of ozone did not affect pain threshold and motor function,but significantly increased SOD activity.MDA concentration decreased significantly at 4 h after IT O_2 or ozone administration in groupⅡ,ⅢandⅣ,but increased significantly at 1 and 2 h after IT ozone in groupⅤ.SOD/MDA was significantly increased at 1,2 and 4h after IT ozone in groupⅢandⅣ,but decreased at 1 and 2 h after IT ozone in groupⅤ.Conclusion IT ozone is toxic to CNS.

Objective To observe the effect of PaCO_2 modulating during operation on post-operative cognitive function of patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery(OPCAB). Methods Thirty patients undergoing OPCAB were randomly divided into traditional group (G_ 1 , n=15) and modulated group (G_ 2 , n=15). During operation, PaCO_ 2 in G_ 1 maintained 35 mmHg to 39 mmHg with relatively fixed ventilation parameters setting, and PaCO_ 2 in G_ 2 ranged from 40 mmHg to 45 mmHg by adjusting ventilation parameters. Continuous cardiac output index (CCI), SvO_ 2 , regional cerebral O_ 2 saturation (rSO_ 2 ) and PaCO_ 2 were recorded before distal anastomosis(T_ 1 ), at 5 min of the first distal vessel anastomosis(T_ 2 ), second distal vessel anastomosis(T_ 3 ) and third distal vessel anastomosis(T_ 4 ), and 20 min after the completion of coronary artery anastomoses. HDS-R and ADL were used to examine the patients' cognitive function. Results There were no significant differences in pre- and post-operative HDS-R and pre-operative ADL scores between groups. The score of post-HDS-R in G_ 1 was obviously lower than that of pre-HDS-R (P
