Objective To investigate the early effect of extracorporeal shockwave(ESW) treatment on distraction osteogenesis of rabbit tibias and its mechanism. Methods 30 adult New Zealand white rabbits were used. After osteotomy of left tibias, improved Orthofix M- 100 bone fixator was applied. After 5 days, bone lengthening of 1 cm was obtained over 10 days. Randomly the animals were divided into ESW and control groups. No ESW treatment was given to the control group. The shock wave was set at 0.54 mJ/mm2 and 1000 shots each time were applied to the central areas in the ESW group. Then the animals were divided into 3 sub- groups, and were killed respectively at 45, 60 and 75 days after osteotomy. During the process, X- ray, bone mineral density (BMD) and histological examinations were conducted for every animal. Results By X- ray and BMD measurements, we found significantly more bone mass increased in the ESW group than in the control group at 45, 60 days after operation (P

Objective To observe the abnormality on behavioral ability of transgenic mice for HRX-EEN fusion gene.Methods Transgenic mice for HRX-EEN fusion gene(transgenic group,n=12)and C57/BL mice(control group,n=12)were tested in hidden platform training(day 1 to day 4)and probe trial testing(day 5)in Morris water maze in which ability of spatial learning and retention was assessed.Results In hidden platform training,the latencies of transgenic group were longer than those in control group,and significant differences were observed between the two groups for day 2,3 and 4(P

AIM This study was designed to investigate the effect of aminoguanidine, an inhibitor of the glycosylated proteins formation, on the impairment of endothelium dependent relaxation induced by advanced glycation end products (AGE) in isolated rat thoracic aorta and its possible mechanisms. METHODS Exogenous glycosylated bovine serum albumin (AGE BSA) was prepared. Aortic rings were exposed to AGE BSA for 60 min to induce the impairment of endothelium dependent vasodilatation. In the drug treated groups, aortic rings were incubated with drug for 15 min and then exposed to AGE BSA for another 60 min in the presence of the drug. Vasodilator responses to acetylcholine (ACh) or sodium nitroprusside (SNP) of aortic rings were measured by isometric tension recording after drug treatment. RESULTS AGE BSA significantly inhibited the endothelium dependent relaxation in response to ACh, but did not affect endothelium independent relaxation in response to SNP. Pre incubation of aortic rings with aminoguanidine(50～500 ?mol?L -1 ) for 15 min and co incubation of aortic rings with AGE BSA for another 60 min markedly attenuated the inhibition of endothelium dependenet relaxation induced by AGE BSA in a dose dependent manner. Superoxide diamutase (SOD, 2?10 5 U?L -1 ), a scavenger of superoxide anions, also prevented the inhibition of endothelium dependent relaxation, which is similar to the effect of 500 ?mol?L -1 aminoguanidine. Furthermore, aminoguanidine (500 ?mol?L -1 ) also reversed impairment of endothelium dependent relaxation of rat aortic ring induced by endogenous oxygen free radicals generated by diethyldithiocarbamate (DETC, 10 ?mol?L -1 ) via inhibiting intracellular SOD. CONCLUSION Aminoguanidine can protect rat aortic endothelium against damage due to AGE BSA, and the beneficial effect of aminoguanidine may relate to its antioxidant properties.

Objective To observe and evaluate the effects of the deep hypothermic circulatory arrest(DHCA) and regional cerebral perfusion(RCP) in pediatric aortic arch surgery.Methods According to different methods of CPB,70 infants less than 3-month-old with CoA or IAA were undergone corrective surgery with DHCA or RCP.The bypass time,aortic clamp time,DHCA or RCP time,ventilation time,ICU stay time and post-operative complications were recorded and compared between two groups.Results The incidence of neurological complications was significantly higher in DHCA group.The CPB time was significantly longer in the RCP group,and the RCP time was significantly longer than DHCA time.Blocking time,ventilator intubation time,ICU residence time,postoperative renal dysfunction,low cardiac output,puhnonary inflammation and hospital mortality was no significant difference between the two groups.Conclusion RCP is an effective cerebral protection technique.Compared with DHCA,RCP works better in sustained brain cerebral perfusion and is suitable for complex aortic arch operation in children.It has a better effort in protection of the neurological system than DHCA.

Objective To investigate the changes of blood lipid,endothelin(ET)and carbohydrate tolerance in simple obesity children.Methods Serum total cholesterol(TC),triglyeride(TG),low density lipoprotein(LDL),endothelin(ET) and oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT) of 436 cases(light obesity group 242,moderate obesity group 138,heavy obesity group 56) were detected respectively.Results The levels of TC,TG,LDL,ET and OGTT in 3 simple obesity groups were all higher than those in control group obviously and there were significant differences.The significant positive correlation between the obesity children serum lipids,ET and obese degrees were observed.Four insulin resistant children were found in heavy obesity group and none in other groups.Conclusions The levels of serum lipids and ET increases in obesity children and the OGTT decreases in some heavy obesity children.For preventing the obesity related health problems,the simple obesity children should be paid more attention to earlier.

J6-1 cell line is the first leukemic cell line established in China. It is a multi-clone cell line infected with both EBV and HHV-6. Many cytokines, receptors and other genes were cloned from J6-1 cell line since its establishment 30 years ago. Valuable information on leukemic characteristics and functions were obtained from the studies on this cell line, which could be categorized into several research subjects. These achievements implied the unique research value of multi-clone cell lines. This comment focuses attention on research advance of the J6-1 leukemic cell line in 30 years, including heterogeneity and multi-cloning of J6-1 cells, survival mechanism of J6-1 cell populations, abnormal intercellalar communication of J6-1 cells with its significance and inspiration from J6-1 cell line.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of year-round respiratory viral infection in children with lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), and the relationship between respiratory viral infection and allergen sensitization in exacerbating asthma. Methods A total of 231 hospitalized children with acute LRTI were investigated from May 2013 to April 2014. The 5 most common respiratory viruses were isolated from nasopharyngeal aspirate using multiplex reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, including respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), adenovirus (AV), parainfluenza virus (PIV), influenza virus (IFV) and rhinovirus (RV). Atopic sensitization was defined if more than 1 serum specific immunoglobulin E level measured using immunofluorescence experiment was over 0.35 IU/mL. Results RSV was the most common pathogen of bronchiolitis in hospitalized children through the year. RV or IFV infections were more prevalent in asthma exacerbations compared to other LRTIs. AV was more likely to cause pneumonia. RV and IFV were associated with asthma exacerbations in children with atopic sensitization, but not in nonatopic children. Conclusion RV and IFV are associated with hospitalization for asthma exacerbation in children with atopic sensitization.

Emerging evidence has indicated that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play pivotal roles in the regulation of cellular processes and are found to be aberrantly expressed in a variety of tumors.However,the clinical role of circRNAs in bladder cancer (BC) and the molecular mechanisms have yet to be fully understood.In this study,the clinical specimens were obtained and the expression level of a circRNA BCRC4 was detected by real-time PCR in both BC tissues and cell line.The circular RNA over-expression plasmid was constructed and transfected into BC cells and related cell line.The cell cycles and apoptosis were observed using inverted microscope and flow cytometry.Western blotting was used to compare the relative protein expression of groups with different treatments.It was found that circRNA BCRC4 expression was lower in BC tissues than in adjacent normal tissues.Furthermore,consequences of fomed-expression of BCRC4 promoted apoptosis and inhibited viability of T24T and UMUC3 cells,and up-regulated BCRC4-inereased miR-101 level,which suppressed EZH2 expression in both RNA and protein levels.In addition,gambogic acid (GA) is a promising natural anticancer compound for BC therapy,and GA treatment increased the BCRC4 expression in T24T and UMUC3 cells in a dose-dependent manner.Altogether,our findings suggest that BCRC4 functions as a tumor suppressor in BC,and mediates anticancer function,at least in part,by up-regulating the expression of miR-101.Targeting this newly identified circRNA may help us develop a novel strategy for treating human BC.
