Objective To explore the intervention effects of trichostatin A ( TSA ) on specialization of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells ( MSCs ) .Methods The rat MSCs were isolated, cultured and purified by the whole bone marrow adherent method in vitro, with morphological observation.The third generation of MSCs were selected, directional induced to osteoblasts, and divided into the TSA low dose group (0.1μmol/L), middle dose group (1μmol/L) , the high dose group (10μmol/L) according to different drug concentrations, seting up blank control group at the same time.MSCs proliferation and cell growth curve of each group were drawn by MMT, the activity of alkaliphosphatase ( ALP) was detected, and the levels of corebinding factor α1 (Cbfα1), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and insulin-like growth factors-1 (IGF-1) mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. Results The trend of MSCs growth curves in each groups were similar, compared with control group, the growth curve of TSA low dose group had no significant change, the TSA middle dose and high dose significantly promoted the proliferation of MSCs (P<0.05).Compared with control group, ALP activity of TSA low-, middle-and high-dose group were significantly higher at 4th,5th,6th(P<0.05).The expression levels of Cbfα1, bFGF and IGF-1mRNA were significantly higher than those of control group, respectively (P<0.05).Conclusion TSA can significantly promote the rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells to differentiate into osteoblast, which is possibly associated with up-regulation of Cbfα1, bFGF and IGF-1mRNA level.

A comparative study of systemic lupus erythematosus in 39 male(MSLE) and 120 female (FSLE) patients was carried out. The results showed that, in MSLE, the mean age at the time of disease onset was similar to FSLE, and the clinical features were nearly the same as those in females, except that the first signs of MSLE were less complicated than those of FSLE, malar rash occurred less commonly in MSLE than in FSLE(P

Objective To investigate the efficacy observation of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)for improving the attention in patients with infarction in basal ganglia area. Methods Sixty consecutive patients with basal ganglia infarction admitted to the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine,the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from May 2015 to May 2016 were enrolled. They were randomly divided into either a control group or a test group according to the random number table (n = 30 in each group). The patients in both groups received routine rehabilitation training,and those in the test group received tDCS therapy synchronously,and the control group received the sham tDCS stimulation. The evaluations and analyses were conducted with the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA),d2 test of attention,and event-related potential-P300 (ERP-P300),respectively in all patients before intervention and 4 weeks after intervention,and they were compared between the groups. Results There was no significant difference before intervention between the two groups (all P > 0. 05). Compared with before intervention,the ERP-P300 latencies were reduced,the amplitudes were increased after intervention in the patients of the test group and the control group (all P < 0. 05). The MoCA total scores (the test group:22. 7 ± 2. 7 vs. 15. 5 ±
2. 4;the control group:17. 2 ±2. 5 vs. 15. 6 ±2. 3),attention dimension scores (the test group:4. 6 ± 1. 2 vs. 2. 4 ± 1. 6;the control group:3. 6 ± 1. 5 vs. 2. 5 ± 1. 5),and the total completion of d2 attention test task, total scores,and concentration degree scores (the test group:295 ± 31 vs. 250 ± 45,279 ± 38 vs. 223 ± 52, 97 ± 22 vs. 75 ± 25;the control group:276 ± 33 vs. 247 ± 45,257 ± 39 vs. 211 ± 56,84 ± 23 vs. 71 ± 24) were all increased (all P < 0. 05),and all the indexes of the test group were better than those of the control group (all P < 0. 05). Conclusion tDCS contributes to the improvement of the attention in patients with infarction in the internal capsule-basal ganglia region.

Objective To explore the characteristics of hematological changes in patients with primary Sj(o)gren'syndrome (pSS).Methods The clinical data of 49 cases with pSS were retrospectively analyzed.Resuits The data showed that 25 patients (51%) among 49 cases had hematological changes.of which 15 cases were anaemia (31%).8(16%) were leukopenia,and 10 cases (20%) were thrombocytopenia.And 6 cases had two cell lines involved.2 cases had three cell lines involved.Twenty-three bone marrow aspirations revealed active proliferation or normal cell proliferation and the morphology of all 3 cells lines were normal.Bone marrow examination had strong positive iton stain and 15 cases with anaemia showed positive iron stain.Seven out of 10 patients with thrombocytopenia had megakaryocyte maturation defect.Conclusion Hemotologieal changes are common.and anemia is the most common findings.Cytopenia is related to autoantibodies mediated stem cell damages.but anemia iS caused by iron metabolic disturbance.while thrombocytopenia is generally due to functional impairment of megakaryocytes.

Objective To induce the apoptosis of human alveolar epithelial cells(A\-\{549\}) by the extraction of the second stage larvae of Ascaris lumbricoides and investigate the extraction concentration and inducing time related to the apoptosis. \ Methods\ Following to the results of Microculture Tetrazolium Test (MTT), five concentrations of the extraction of the second stage larvae were chosen to induce the apoptosis of A\-\{549\} cells. Meanwhile, control groups without the inducement were set up. For each group, observation was made at five time points since the start of inducement, to assess the existence of apoptosis and percentage of cells showing characteristics of apoptosis. HE stain and diphenylamine reaction methods were used to assess the cell apoptosis. Agarose gel electrophoresis of DNA and flow cytometry were also employed to confirm the apoptosis for some groups. \{\ Results \ \}Observations indicated that the apoptosis ratio of A\-\{549\} cells induced by the extraction at different concentrations were significantly higher than that of the control cells (P

Pain just tolerable was caused intermittently by electric stimulation on rat's tail or by distented baloon in stomach for 30 min. The changes of intermediate lobe are summarized as follows: (1) The cell body, nucleus or nucleolus was hypertrophied. The number of rough endoplasmic reticulum, particularly of its vesicular cisternae was increased. Golgi complex enlarged. The ribosome multiplied. All of these change indicated that the activity of cells was increased and the rate of synthesis enhanced. (2) Both the secretory granules shifted to the periphery of cell body and some of them showed pale density. These changes were interpreted as increase of seretory activity. (3) The mitochondria became enlarged and the crsitae in them were changed into tubular form. This suggested an acceleration of cell metabolism, which might provide a large amount of energy. (4) There was no degenerative change. (5) The cytological changes caused by visceral pain were simillar with, but more striking than, those caused by somatic pain. (6) The secretions were increased, among which ?-endorphin and ACTH etc were known to be closely related to analgesia.

Our experiments were designed to observe the cytological changes of the anterior lobes in rats pituitary at electron microscopic level after electric pain-stimulation. obvious changes were founded in the ACTH, GH and PRL cells and slight changes in the FSH and TSH cells. However, the LH cells remained to resemble the normal cells. In the experiment group of the somatic painful stimulation the results were as follows: The ACTH cells were irregularly shaped, with extended thin and long plasmatic processes which interdigitated with GH cells. The processes filled with secretory granules. Some of the Secretory granules aligning along the plasmatic membrane showed pale density. The flat cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) appeared to be slightly dilated. The sizes of the bodies of GH and PRL cells increased. In the GH cells there were numera media cisternae in RER, their Golgi complex was well developed, and the secretory granules were distributed to the periphery of the cell bodies. All these phenomenous showed the secretory activity of these cells was enhanced. The PRL cells contained well developed Golgi complex and abundant RER. In the experiment group of the visceral painful stimulation the results were as follows: There were more striking changes of parenchymal cells of anterior lobes in rats pituitary than those of the experimental group of the somatic painful stimulation. The cell bodies of ACTH, GH and PRL cells showed hypertrophy, the nucleus enlarged and nucleolus were relatively prominent. The dense granules decreased in number and the pale or empty visicles almost situated near the plasmic membrane in ACTH cells. In the GH cells large vacuoles were distributed throughout the cytoplasma. The number and density of the secretory granules decreased. In PRL cells the Golgi complex were extended, the dictyosomes increased, in addition, RER, polyribosomes and mitochandria were more aboundant than that in these normal cells. These cytological changes suggested secretory and synthetic activity of these cells were enhanced. At last, pain in relation to several hormones such as ?-endorphin, ?-LPH, ACTH and ?-MSH etc. were discussed by the author.

The purpose of this research work is to study the influence of experimentally produced pain on the uhrastructural changes of the nerve endings of the neurosecretory fibers from hypothalamus to neurohypophysis.Twenty adult male rats, weighing 200～300 g were divided into 3 groups: (1) Six animals were stimulated through two electrodes fixed on the tail to produce somatic pain. (2) Six animals were stimulated by increasing pressure in the stomach through an air balloon to cause visceral pain. And 8 animals served as control.All the animals were sacrificed and their neurohypophysis were fixed in 40％ glutaraldehyde and 1％ OsO_4 successively. Sections were cut with an LKB microtome and observed under H500 electron microscope.The following conclusions were drawn from the observed results:1. The neurosecretory granules in the fibers from hypothalamus to neurohypophysis grew up to maturity by increasing in size gradually as they passing down from hypothalamus to neurohypophysis.2. Basing on the morphological exhibition of the neurosecretory granules, we get the impression that the neurosecretion might be released either by molecular dispersion or by exocytosis.3. There were a great number of discrete smooth vesicles grouped in cluster in the dilated parts of neurosecretory fibers. These vesicles had been called as "synaptic" or "synaptoid" vesicles. They might be really synaptic vesicles and containing acetylcholine. Other vesicles with irregular profile and varying in size, collapsing vesicles and vacuoles might be the residues of the neurosecretory granules after discharging their content.4. Many synaptic vesicles were concentrated at the axolemma of the dilated parts of neurosecretory fibers and the membranes were thickened and leaving a synaptic cleft.5. In the exprimental groups after pain stimulation the neurosecretory granules decreased in number and the synaptoid vesicles increased in number and the neurosecretory granules showed a wide pale halo. The number of irregular vesicles and ghost of granules were increased. This phenomenon might show that the excretion of neurosecretory material and neurotransmitters was enhanced.6. Neurohemal zones were the barrier for the neurosecretory material entering into blood. Acetylcholine, endogenous opiatelike substances and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) might play a control role for neurosecretion at this site.7. This experimental results supported the action mechanism of endogenous opaitelike substance and morphine could produce an important role directly in neurohypophysis.

The specimens were taken from two adults' hearts, thirty-four and twenty-eight years of age respectively. The A-V bundle was taken from the middle part of postero-inferior edge of the membranous part of the ventricular septum. The moderator band were cut from its superficial and deep part. The pseudochordae tendineae were collected from the left ventricle. All of the samples were fixed by 4％ glutaraldehyde. The chief results were as follows:There are many Purkinje cells in the A-V bundle, moderator band and pseudochordae tendineae. The shape of the Purkinje cells is broader and shorter than the ordinary myocardial cells. The myofibrils and myofiliments of the Purkinje cells are less than of those of the ordinary myocardial cells. The mitochondria of the Purkinje cells were often situated around the nucleus. In the A-V bundle, a few transitional cells and general myocardial cells may be observed. Therefore the His bundle may be consisted of Purkinje cells transitional cells and a few general myocardial cells. Our findings are not in accordance with that of Glomset et al. They observed that the A-V bundle only consisted of the general ventricle myocardial cells. The intercalated discs present between the Purkinje ceils in the A-V bundle were not typical. Besides the intercalated discs, we observed two sorts of the junction types in the A-V bundle: (1) An intercalated disc was observed between a branch of a transitional cell and the lateral surface of the other adjacent transitional cell. (2) Through the collagenous septum, there was a junction between a transverse branch of transitional cell and opposite transitional cell.

Objective To characterize the expression of surfactant protein A (SP-A) in normal and acute pyelonephritic rat kidneys and to study the correlation of infection and inflammation with SP-A expression. Methods Twenty-one rats were randomly assigned into three groups: control, sham operation and pyelonephritic group. HE staining was used to determine tubulointerstitial inflammation. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blotting were used to determine the mRNA expression and protein level of SP-A. Immunohistochemical staining was used to label the localization and intensity of SP-A expression in kidney tissue. The correlation between intensity of SP-A expression and interstitial inflammation was also evaluated. Results In pyelonephritic group, tubulointerstitial inflammation was more prominent than that in control and sham groups (54.3?11.5,6.4?1.4, 8.6?1.9,respectively). RT-PCR and Western blotting revealed that SP-A expression was up-regulated in pyelonephritic group (in mRNA level: 2.2+0.58, 0.9?0.25, 1.1? 0.30; in protein level: 0.45?0.09, 0.24?0.05, 0.26?0.05, respectively). Immunohistochemical staining demonstrated that SP-A expression was mainly localized on epithelial cells in outer medullary and collecting tubules in normal group and sham group, but strong staining extended to collecting tubules in pyelonephritic group. The tubulointerstitial inflammation score was positively correlated with the intensity of SP-A expression (r=0.67,P
