1.?7 nicotinic receptors in non-excitable endothelium and angiogenesis
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2003;0(10):-
?7nAChR, an important neurotransmitter recptor,is w il dly expressed in the central and peripheral neuronal system, which is involved i n neuronal signal transduction and the regulation of physiological functions in the central neuronal system. Several studies have demonstrated that ?7nAChR is identified in non-neuronal cells such as endothelial cells, vascular smooth mus cle cells, bronchial epithelial cells, skin keralinocytes and is involved in the regulation of mitosis,differentiation, organization of the cytoskeleton, cell -cell contact, locomotion and migration. These (in vitro and in vivo) s tudies indicated that ?7nAChR participated in the secretion and release of seve ral bioactivity molecules in endothelial cells, mediated intercellular signal tr ansduction, and regulated angiogenesis. These studies suggested an endogenous ch olinergic target for angiogenesis mediated by endothelial ?7nAChR.

Objective To observe the effect of stellate ganglion block on patients with cerebral infarction.Methods36 patients with cerebral infarction were randomly divided into the control group and research group.Both two groups were treated with traditional treatment.The research group was added with stellate ganglion block.ResultsAfter 20 days treatment,the Neuro-function Deficit(NFD) scores of both two groups were significantly lower than that before treatment(P<0.01);but the NFD scores of the research group were significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.01).The scores of Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA) and Barthel Index(BI) of both two groups were significantly higher after treatment(P<0.01);but the scores of FMA and BI of the research group were significantly higher than that of the control group(P<0.01).ConclusionStellate ganglion block can improve the nerve function of patients with cerebral infarction.

Objective To investigate the relationship between flow-mediated dilatation of the brachial artery(FMD) and cardiovascular risk factors as well as target organ damage in elder patients with isolated systolic hypertension(ISH).Methods Ninety patients with ISH were divided into two groups: ISH group(n=51) and ISH with hyperlipidemia group(n=39).Color Doppler ultrasound for FMD was performed on all the patients,and carotid artery ultrasound and cardiac ultrasound were also conducted. Results Patiens with hyperlipidemia had lower FMD than those of ISH group(P=0.021).It was revealed by univariate analysis that FMD was negatively related to systolic blood pressure,carotid intima-media thickness and total cholesterol(P

[Objective]To research the effect of using Ilizarov technique in bone transmission and fascia skin flap for large defeciency of bone and soft tissues of lower limb.[Method]There were 12 patients in our group,11 patients had severe compound trauma of the leg,one in arm.Bone defeciency range was 4~12 cm,average 8 cm,cotaneous defeciency was 4?5 cm2~14?5 cm2,and all of them had acute infection.Nine had been treated with leg lateral fascia skin flap,1 had been treated with leg fascia skin flap,1 had been treated with the opposide leg skin flap,1 had been treated with the arm fascia skin flap,in 12 bone transport,elongation range was 4~12 cm,average 8 cm.Eight had been used double arms external fixation device,4 cases had been used circle shape external fixation device.[Result]Totally 12 patients were followed up for 2~10.8 years(average,4.2 years) elongation part and compressed part healed naturally,all of the fascia shin flap were alive.No bone ununion and chronic osteomyelitis appeared.[Conclusion]Using Ilizarov bone transport technique and fascia skin flap is a good way for treating large defeciency of bone and soft tissue.Its advantages:(1)The wound limb can maintain stability by external fixatian device.The methed of the bone transportation can fill big section bone deficiency;(2) In the same time the fascia shin flap may be transported,and repair soft tissue deficiency,provide good condition to bone's healing and control infection;(3)The external fixation device can provide distraction and compression functions,this function makes elongation part and compressed part obtain the reasonable biomechanics condition which would be good to bone healing;(4)The course of bone transmission can stimulate bone repair mechanisms,to enhance the wound limb metabolism,increase blood supply circularation,the grown bone factor aggregation,enhance the body's initiative repair mechanisms and infection controlling mechanism;(5)In the protection of the external fixation device,the patient's wound limb can do early rehabilitation,thus can avoid osteoporosis and joint dyfunction because of the lone-term immobility;(6)To use these methods,the treatment period will be shortened,antibiotic application will be decreased,the treatment cost will be lower than other methods and complications will be decreased as well.

Chinese Journal of Ultrasonography 2013;22(11):962-964
Objective To study the feasibility of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in detecting sentinel lymph node(SLN) in patients with colorectal cancer during operation and their clinical significance.Methods Twenty-one patients who underwent radical resection of a primary colorectal cancer were enrolled.During operation,1 % methylene blue was injected around the tumor,SLN mapping was performed.Then the SonoVue was injected at the same sites,CEUS was performed to observe changes of SLN in real time,and marked them.The SLN detection rate and accuracy of CEUS were compared to those of conventional dye guided method.Results The rectal cancer of below peritoneal reflex,the detection rate of CEUS for SLN was 92.31 %,and the accuracy was 88.89%.The detection rate of dye guided method for SLN was 84.62%,and the accuracy was 93.10%,there was no statistically significant difference between CEUS and dye guided method (P >0.05).Conclusions When injected SonoVue in submucosal layer,the good mapping of SLN of patients with rectal cancer of below peritoneal reflex can be obtained,it will play an important role in clinical application to map SLN of patients with rectal cancer of below peritoneal reflex.

In the field of gene delivery, nonviral vectors are getting more attention due to the advantages which do not belong to viral vectors. But kinds of polypeptides are important to construct ideal nonviral vectors. The paper reviews the development in the research of polypeptides as components of nonviral vectors like as the backbone, the targeting moiety, the endosome membrane destabilizing agents and the nuclear localizing signals.
