AIM: The changes of myocardial nuclear membrane Ca 2+ -ATPase function was investigated in ischemia/reperfusion injury. METHODS: The model of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury was established in rats. Myocardial nuclei were purified with sucrose density centrifugation,the activity of Ca 2+ -ATPase was measured and calcium uptake was assayed with [ 45 Ca 2+ ] . RESULTS: Plasma levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and free fatty acid (FFA) in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury increased significantly( P

It has been shown, however, that in terms of immune function, a transitional stage of dendritic cell maturation exists between immature myeloid dendritic cells (imDCs) and mature dendritic cells (DCs), which were named semimature dendritic cells (smDCs). Therefore, the theory that DCs can be classified as imDCs and mDCs has been challenged because of finding smDCs. SmDCs and imDCs are regarded as tolerogenic dendritc cells while what concrete mechanism taken by smDCs and imDCs in transplantation immunity has yet to know. The authors analyzed the important roles and the advanced molecular mechanism of smDCs and imDCs in transplantation immunity in order to update and widen understand underlying tolerogenic dendritic cells.

To explore the influence of matrix materials in complicate ingredients on traditional Chinese medicine and investigate the excipients selection model based on balanced release characteristics of multicomponents, the influence of HPMC (K4M, K15M, K100M) and Carbomer (934P, 971P, 974P) was illustrated by testing in vitro release of ginsenoside-Rg1, ginsenoside-Rb1 and notoginsenoside-R1 in Panax notoginseng saponins (model drug, PNS). According to in vitro release results of PNS matrix tablets in water and artificial intestinal juice, the release curves were analyzed with Peppas equation and simulating factor (f). Significant differences in k value and n value among ginsenoside-Rg1, ginsenoside-Rb1 and notoginsenoside-R1 existed in various formulations. The release behaviors from various excipients could be described with Non-Fickian transport or super Case II transport pattern. The f2 values for ginsenoside-Rg1, ginsenoside-Rb1 and notoginsenoside-R1 in 971P matrix tablet containing 30% Carbomer 971P were 74.91, 53.45, 57.89 in water and 79.35, 55.51, 51.89 in artificial intestinal juice, respectively. The release profiles fit for the regulation of FDA. The result revealed that the balanced release rates of Rg1, Rb1 and R1 in 971P matrix tablet were obtained.

Objective To establish animal models in order to provide an experimental study basis for both the pathogenesis study and taking effective prevention scheme for doxorubicin extravasation injury. Methods A total of 20 Kunming mice for experiments on doxorubicin extravasation injury were divided in-to four groups, I.e., high dose group(2 g/L), medium dose group(1 g/L), low dose group(0.5 g/L) and the control group (injection with water). Dosages were administered with subcutaneous injection on both sides of mice abdomen. The adverse reaction of body, damage areas of extravasation injury, recovery period were observed and histopathologic slides of animal models on both 4 days and 11 days after experiment were performed and compared. Results No significant adverse body reaction was observed after injection for all groups. The damage areas due to extravasation injury were dosage and concentration dependent. In addi-tion, significant differences in recovery period were observed for mice in different groups, that is, the higher injection concentration and dose led to the longer recovery period. Results from the histopathologic study in-dicated that the putrescence of damage area was developed in high dose group mice, and the ulcer occurred after 4 d of dosage in medium dose group mice, respectively. In contrast, no ulcer was observed in low dose group mice. Conclusions It would be feasible to establish a prevention model for mice on doxorubicin extravasation injury by subcutaneous injection at a dosage of 0.05ml(1 g/L).

OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the simultaneous determination of acetic acid and succinic acid in Banxia syrup. METHODS:RP-HPLC was performed on the column of GL InterSustain-C18 with mobile phase of 0.03 mol/L ammonium di-hydrogen phosphate buffer solution(pH2.0)-methanol(gradient elution)at a flow rate of 0.8 ml/min,the detection wavelength was 210 nm,column temperature was 30 ℃,injection volume was 10 μl. RESULTS:The linear range was 0.020 98-0.209 8 μg/ml for acetic acid(0.999 9)and 12.04-120.4 μg/ml for succinic acid(r=0.999 9);limits of quantification were 0.15,18.24 ng,limits of detection were 0.045, 5.53 ng;RSDs of precision, stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 2%;recoveries were 97.45%-101.68%(RSD=1.39%,n=9) and 98.31%-101.08%(RSD=1.01%,n=9). CONCLUSIONS:The method is accurate and rapid,and suitable for the simultaneous determination of acetic acid and succinic acid in Banxia syrup.

Based on untermolecular splut G-quardruplex-hemun DNAzymes, a buosensor for detectuon of sulver uons and cysteune was developed wuth magnetuc nanopartucles ( MNPs ) as carruer to ummobuluze the DNA probes. Sunce Ag+ chelates guanune bases at the bundung sutes whuch are unvolved un G-quadruplex formatuon, the presence of Ag+ may unhubut G-quartets connected by Hoogsteen-type base paurung and dusrupt G-quadruplexes structures, whuch decreases the peroxudase actuvuty of G-quadruplex-hemun DNAzymes that effucuently catalyze H2 O2-meduated reactuons, such as the oxudatuon of ABTS ( 2, 2'-azunobus ( 3-ethylbenzothuozolune)-6-sulfonuc acud) by H2 O2 . Moreover, un the presence of L-cysteune, ut was used as a competutor by the strongly Ag-S to release Ag+ from G-ruch olugonucleotudes, promotung the reformatuon of G-quadruplexes and uncreasung the peroxudase actuvuty, whuch catalyzes the ABTS-H2 O2 reactuon system. In thus experument, the effucuent separatuon from real sample was achueved usung magnetuc nanopartucles as a solud phase carruer to effectuvely uncrease the detectuon sensutuvuty and decrease the background sugnal. Under the optumum condutuons, a hugh lunear relatuonshup between the UV absorbance and the Ag+ concentratuon was establushed un the range of 0. 5-100 nmol/L wuth a detectuon lumut of 0. 2 nmol/L. The calubratuon curve of cysteune was udentufued un the range from 0. 1 to 80 nmol/L and the detectuon lumut was as low as 0. 04 nmol/L.

Objective To study the diagnosis and treatment of hyperthyroidism companied with thyroid carcinoma . Methods The clinical data of 11 cases of hyperthyroidism with thyroid carcinoma were retrospectively analysed. Results 9 of 11 cases were diagnosed preoperatively,and comfirmed by frozen section intra-operatively and underwent suitable operation. In the other two cases the final diagnosis was made by pathological examination postoperatively, and re-operation was performed on 1 case . All the patients were followed up for 1～16 years and neither hyperthyroidism nor thyroid carcinoma recurred. Conclusion It is difficult to make diagnosis of hyperthyroidism with thyroid carcinoma preoperatively. B mode ultrasonography may find some nodes in enlarged thyroid; but fine needle aspisation biopsg(FNA) has high false negative diagnostic rate. Intra-operative frozen section examination is important in the diagnosis of hyperthyroidism with thyroid carcinoma .

AIM:To further study the anti-tumor effect of angiostatin, an anti-human angiostatin monoclonal antibody was prepared and identified.METHODS:The hybrodoma techniques were used. The BALB/C mice were immunized with angiostatin. The supernatant of cell culture were collected and screened by ELISA and double immunodiffusion.RESULTS: There cell lines which steadily secreted the anti-angiostatin monoclonal antibody were identified by ELISA and double immunodiffusion. The antibody was IgG1 and specifically recognized angiostatin without crossing reactions to rhIL-2, rhTNF-?, rhIFN-? and serum proteins.CONCLUSION: The antibodies secreted by three hybridoma cell lines identified by several methods were specific antibodies of angiostatin.
