Objective To study the role of endogenous telomerase catalytic inhibitor PinX1 in the progression of colorectal cancer tissue. Methods The expression of PinX1、telomerase subunits(hTERT) and telomere binding protein(hTRF1) was detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Surgically resected colorectal cancer specimens in 66 cases were studied. Results PinX1 expression is significantly correlated with histologic differentiation,clinical stage and lymph node metastasis of colorectal cancer( Fd =11.40, Fs = 4.22,t =-2.81,P ≤0.05). The level of PinX1 was negatively associated with the expression of hTERT( r =-0.553,P

Objective To evaluate effectiveness of microvascular decompression in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. Methods 126 cases of trigeminal neuralgia were operated on by microvascular decompression via suboccipital retrosigmoid approach. It was found that nerves were compressed by vessels nerves in 122 cases. Cotton of Teflon was implanted between oppressive trigeminal nerve roots and vessels by minimally invasive surgery. Results 113 of 126 cases were followed up postoperatively for (1~9)years. Pain disappeared or died down in 110 cases. The total effective rate was 97.3%(110/113). Conclusions Microvascular decompression is effective treatment for trigeminal neuralgia.

Objective To compare the influence of three kinds of Walnut kernel extracts on learning and memory ability as well as ultrastructural pathology in hippocampus of Alzheimer's disease (AD) rats. Methods AD rat model was established by injection of amyloid-beta protein (Aβ1-40 ) into the nucleus basalis of meynert. The AD rats were randomly divided into Walnut kernel-water group,Walnut kernel-ethanol group,Walnut kernel-acetone group,and the model control group,10 rats in each group. In addition,10 rats of normal control group and 10 rats of sham operation group were selected. The model control group was not treated; the treatment groups were intragastrically given Walnut kernel water extract,ethanol extract,and acetone extract ( the equivalent of pharmacognosy 0. 3 g·mL-1 ),respectively,dose 3 g·kg-1 . The learning and memory ability was studied by Morris water maze,and ultrastructure of neurons was observed under the transmission electron microscopy. Results The time of looking for platform in Walnut kernel-water group,Walnut kernel-ethanol group,and Walnut kernel-acetone group were dropped swiftly at the beginning of 3 days, the third day is (51. 80±4. 37),(61. 20±4. 67),and (59. 63±5. 24),respectively; the model control group is (67. 67±6. 12) s. Compared with the model group,the differences were significance (P<0. 05); However,the acetone extract of Walnut kernel can obviously enhance the learning and memory ability (P<0. 01),and the ultrastructure almost returned to normal. Conclusion The acetone extracts of Walnut kernel have the function of preventing Alzheimer's disease.

OBJECTIVE To develop an HPLC method for the determination of floxuridine in human serum.METHODS With metronidazole as the internal standard,200 μL of serum was extracted by n-propyl alcohol/methyl t-butyl ether in a two-step extraction.The organic layer was evaporated under nitrogen stream and the residual was reconstituted with the mobile plase.A Shim-Pack CLC-ODS column was selected and the mobile phase was consisted of acetonitrile-phosphate buffer-water (75∶100∶900) at a flow rate of 0.6 mL*min-1.The detection wavelength was 268 nm.RESULTS A linearitywas obtained from 0.005 to 0.5 mg*L-1 of floxuridine in serum with a good correlation coefficient (r=0.9999,n=8).The intra-run and inter-run coefficients of variation were less than 4.09%.The mean recoveries were 103.00%,107.00% and 100.88% for the low,middle and high concentrations of check samples,respectively.The limit of detection was 0.001 mg*L-1.CONCLUSION The method was sensitive,specific and simple.It is suitable for clinical pharmacokinetic study.

ObjectiveTo assess the feasibility of seeding adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) onto bladder acellular matrix grafts (BAMGs) for bladder reconstruction in a rabbit model.MethodsAutologous ADSCs were isolated,expanded and identified by flow cytometry.In the experimental group,ADSCs were seeded onto BAMGS for reconstructing bladder defects in 12 male rabbits.Unseeded BAMGs were used for bladder reconstruction in the control group of 12 rabbits.Cystography was performed at 24 weeks after grafts implantation.Following cystography,the animals were scarified and grafts were harvested; H&E and immunohistochemical staining were performed with cytokeratin AE1/AE3,smooth muscle α-actin and S-100 markers.ResultsFlow cytometry demonstrated that the ADSCs expressed CD90,CD44,CD105,CD166 and CD34,but not CD45 or CD106.The cells demonstrated good biocompatibility with BAMGs.At 24 weeks,in the experimental group,the reconstructed bladders reached a mean volume of (94.68 ± 3.31 )% of the precystectomy bladder capacity.Complete regeneration of smooth muscle and nerve tissue was evident.Regenerated SMCs,urothelium and nerve cells stained positively for α-smooth muscle actin,AE1/AE3 and S100.In the control group,the mean bladder volume was (69.33 ± 5.05 )% of the pre-cystectomy volume.Histologically,the control group was characterized by multi-layered urothelium without evidence for organized muscle or nerve tissue.Conclusion The tissue engineering bladder constructed by ADSCs and BAMG can be used as an ideal biomaterial to replace and repair the bladder.

Objective: To observe the controlled hypotension effects of nicardipine in 2 different ways for spinal tumor operalion. Methods: Twenty-four adult patients, scheduled for selective spinal tumor operation, were randomly divided into 2 groups. In groupⅠ(n=12), the nicardipine was infused at a rate of 10 μg*kg-1*min-1 and the infusion continued until MAP was at the level of 7.33-8.66 kPa, and then the rate was decreased to 1 μg*kg-1*min-1. In Group Ⅱ(n=12), nicardipine was given 0.01-0.02 mg/kg as the load dose, then infused at 1-2 μg*kg-1*min-1. Results: During the period of controlled hypotension, cardiac index(CI) increased significantly, other hemodynamic variables were stable and no hypertension rebound occurred in both groups. Reaching time of target blood pressure in groupⅡ was shorter than that in groupⅠ(P<0.05). The dose required to obtain target blood pressure in group Ⅱwas less than that in group Ⅰ(P<0.05). BP recovery time from discontinuing nicardipine infusion to pre-hypotension level,bleeding volume and transfusion volume were similar between 2 groups(P>0.05).During mass bleeding, serious arrhythmia and oliguria did not occur in any case. Conclusion: Controlled hypotension with nicardipine is rapid, stable and easily controlled without hypertension rebound. Nicardipine has considerable protective effects on heart and kidney during mass bleeding. The method of bolus injection followed with intravenous infusion is more suitable to clinical application.

OBJECTIVE To study the bioequivalence of methylprednisolone (MP) tablets in healthy volunteers.METHOD A rapid and sensitive RP-HPLC assay was modified for the determination of the drug levels in plasma. In a randomized two-way crossover design, 40 mg single dose po domestic (B) and imported (A, MedrolTM) MP tablets, respectively, were given to 18 male healthy volunteers. The parameters were estimated by non-compartment model with a statistic analysis of ANOVA and two one-side t-test.RESULTS The tmax,cmax,t1/2 and AUC0~∞ of tablet-B and-A were (1.9±0.5) h and (2.1±0.5) h, (597.6±119.8 ) ng*mL-1 and (572.6±121.7) ng*mL-1,(2.2±0.4) h and (2.3±0.4) h,(2528.4±558.8) h*ng*mL-1 and (2571.2±647.4) h*ng*mL-1,respectively.The mean relative bioavailability of the tablet-B vs A was 99.62%. There was no significant difference between the two products.CONCLUSION The results suggested that these two products were bioequivalent.
