OBJECTIVE:To optimize the extraction technology of nucleoside from Codonopsis pilosula. METHODS:The ultra-sonic extraction was used to extract nucleoside from C. pilosula. The extraction technology was screened and optimized by single factor and orthogonal test with ethanol concentration (including water),extraction time,solid-liquid ratio and extraction times as factors using the total contents of cytidine,uridine,guanosine and adenosine as index. Validation test was conducted. RESULTS:The optimal extraction technology was that pure water was extraction solvent,extracting for 45 min,with material-liquid ratio of 1∶20 (g/ml),extracting for 2 times. Total amount of 4 kinds of nucleosides from in 100 g C. pilosula was (17.01 ± 0.005) mg (RSD=0.68%,n=3). CONCLUSIONS:Optimized extraction technology of nucleoside from C. pilosula is stable,feasible,rapid in operation and cost-saving.

Methods90 children with cerebral palsy were divided into the observation group (acupuncture and comprehensive rehabilitation) and control group (comprehensive rehabilitation). They were assessed with Gross Motor Function Measure and the Gesell Development Schedules before and 3 months after treatment. ResultsThe total effective rate was 95% in observation group, and 80% in the control group (P<0.01). The score of gross motor function and Gesell adaptive development quotient improved more in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.01). ConclusionAcupuncture is efficacious on functional recovery in children with cerebral palsy

Objective To explore the effect of erlotinib in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC)in stage ⅢA before operation and the relation with the rate of resection,good operability and postoperative complications.Methods 31 patients with NSCLC in stage ⅢA in group A were treated with erlotinib before operation;34 patients with NSCLC in stage ⅢA in group B only were treated with operation.Results The condition of 64.5%patients were improved.The operability in group A was more than that in group B(P=0.008),the good operability in group A was more than that in group B(P=0.011),the postoperative complications do not have statistical significance (P=0.07).Conclusion The erlotinib can increase the rate of resection in patients with NSCLC in stage ⅢA,and increase good operability in patients with NSCLC in stage ⅢA,but not increase the postoperative complications.

Objective To investigate the factors that influence the fermentation process of compound Chinese medicine and determining the optimum fermentation with single factor experiment and response surface methodology. Methods Through controlling the factors in the fermentation process of compound Chinese medicine (such as fermentation bacteria, fermentation time, fermentation temperature, inoculum amount, etc.), with its increase rate of total peak area as evaluation indicator, the alcohol extracts before and after fermentation were monitored and comparative evaluated by HPLC, and the optimum fermentation process was determined by response surface methodology. Results The fermentation process optimized by single factor experiment and response surface methodology was as follows:SZ-2 strain served as the fermentation bacteria, temperature was 33 ℃, inoculum amount was 4%, and time was 3.5 d, the average increase rate of total peak area was 31.24%. Conclusion HPLC can be used to identify and evaluate the fermentation of compound Chinese medicine under the different factors, and to clarify the optimal fermentation process by response surface methodology, which provide reference for the development of fermentation process.

Objective To assess the feasibility of K value of dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) in evaluation of anti-angiogenic effects on nude mice with orthotopic transplantation tumor model of gastric cancer.Methods Nude mice with orthotopic transplantation tumor model of gastric cancer were randomly assigned to two groups:Treatment group (n =15),mice were given apatinib intragastrically for 18 days (100 mg/kg),and control group (n=15),mice were given ddH2O2 in the same manner.After 18 days,DCE-MRI was performed and K value was measured.Then the tumors were dissected from the adjacent tissues in order to detect the microvessel density (MVD) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression levels.MVD and VEGF expression level were compared between treatment group and the control group.Results MVD (x2 =4.89,P＜0.05) and VEGF expression level (x2 =8.69,P＜0.01) of treatment group were much lower than those of control groups.The Kt value of treatment group was significantly lower than that of control groups ([0.63±0.05]/min vs [1.66±0.23]/min,t=17.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion The value of k in DCE-MRI can be utilized to assess the effects of apatinib on nude mice with orthotopic transplantation model of gastric cancer.

Objective To research a fast method on establishment of simplified model of the spine.Methods The 3D geometry of the spine is reconstructed using a multiview radiography reconstruction technique through the two plane X-rays by extracting the spinal anatomy information combined with the statistical geometrical information.Results The entire spine finite element modeling including the thoracic spine(T1-T12),lumbar spine(L1-L5) and the sacrum was reconstructed,and the analysis proved that lateral corrective force can correct scoliosis to a certain extent.Conclusion Because the method needs less time,and causes less radiation to patients,it can be brought much convenience and support to the clinical application.

Objective To determine the preventive effect of Celecoxib on postoperative adhesion formation and its mechanism. Methods We divided 80 SD rats into 5 groups: Groups A, B, C, H and S. Rats in Groups A, B, C and H received the operation of peritoneum rubbing to promote adhesion formation. Group S underwent sham operation. Rats in Group B were given Celecoxib of 40 mg/(kg·d), those in Group C were also given Celecoxib of 20mg/(kg·d), and those in Group H were given sodium hyaluronate (HA) during the operation. On the 8th and 15th postoperative day, half of the rats were sacrificed, the extent of adhesion formation was assessed and the adhesive peritoneum was subjected to immunohistochemistry with VEGF and CD_(34). Results The extent of postoperative adhesion differed significantly among the five groups (P<0.01). Groups B and C had significantly fewer adhesions than Groups H and A. VEGF was expressed most highly in Group A, followed by Groups H, C and B, and most weakly in Group S. CD34 was expressed most highly in Group A, followed by Groups H, C and B, and most weakly in Group S. Conclusion Celecoxib provides durable inhibition of intra-abdominal adhesions in a murine model compared with HA. The mechanism of preventing intra-abdominal adhesion via inhibiting COX-2 is possibly through down-regulated expression of VEGF and reduced microvascular density.

AIM: To observe the protein expression of vascular endothelial growth factor 1 (VEGF-1) in pulmonary arterial endothelial cells and VEGF-1 gene expression in lung tissue in rats with hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension and treated with heparin. METHODS: Twenty four male adult SD rats were randomly divided into three groups (8 rats each): a control group (group A), a group with hypoxia for 4 weeks (group B) and a group with hypoxia for 4 weeks and injected with heparin to abdominal cavity simultaneously (group C). Mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP), right ventricle hypertrophy index (RVHI) and vessel morphometry were measured. The morphology of pulmonary artery was observed by HE staining. The expression of VEGF-1 protein in pulmonary arterial endothelial cells was determined by immunohistochemistry. The level of VEGF-1 mRNA in lung tissue was measured by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). RESULTS: mPAP, RVHI, pulmonary artery remodeling parameters, VEGF-1 protein expression in pulmonary arterial endothelial cells and VEGF-1 gene expression in lung tissue of the three groups from high to low were group B, group C and group A. It was statistically significant when compared between either two groups of the three (P<0.01). Linear correlation analysis showed that VEGF-1 protein was positively correlated with pulmonary artery remodeling parameters (r=0.974, P<0.01), and VEGF-1 mRNA was positively correlated with VEGF-1 protein (VEGF 120 mRNA, r=0.919, P<0.01; VEGF164 mRNA, r=0.896, P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Heparin may down-regulate the expression of VEGF-1 at the levels of transcription and translation, resulting in the inhibitory effect on rats with hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension.
