28 days after injury (P < 0.05). In the fracture+spinal cord injury group, the level of serum transforming growth factor beta 1 had a rapid increase on the 7th day, and reached the peak on the 14th day, and then, this level had no significant decrease until the 28th day. In the simple fracture group, the level of serum transforming growth factor beta 1 began to increase on the 2nd day, reached the peak on the 7th day, and then decreased gradualy. Remarkable changes of serum transforming growth factor beta 1 levels in patients with bone fracture combined with spinal cord injury may be associated with fracture healing in different periods.

Objective To investigate the expression of S-phase kinase associated protein 2 (Skp2) in rats with acute liver failure (ALF) and its significance. Methods There were 256 male SD rats used in this study, among which 240 were injected with D-galactosamine (D-GaIN) to set up ALF model. The rats were divided into 3 groups: ALF model group, free hepatocellular transplantation group, microencapsulated hepatocyte transplantation group, which were intraperitoneally injected with 2 mL of RPMI 1640 culture medium, free hepatocellular suspension and microencapsulated hepatocyte suspension, respectively. The other 6 rats were in control group and the rest 10 rats were used for hepatocyte isolation. Expressions of Skp2 protein in hepatocytes of rats at different time points were detected by immunohistochemical technique. Levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and total bilirubin (TBil) were detected by automatic biochemistry analyzer. The survival rate in each group was observed. Comparisons among groups were done using one-factor analysis of variance. Results Levels of ALT, AST and TBil decreased more significantly by intraperitoneal transplantation of microencapsulated hepatocytes than those by intraperitoneal transplantation of free hepatocytes (P<0. 05). Skp2 labeling indices after 36 h of injection in ALF model group, free hepatocellular transplantation group and microencapsulated hepatocyte transolantation grouo were (28. 2±6.1) %, (41.4± 10. 5) % and (68. 0±10.8) %, respectively (F=29. 08 , P<0. 05). There were 4, 6 and 11 out of 15 rats survived in the 3 groups, respectively. Conclusion The dynamic observation of Skp2 expression could be used to judge the regeneration of hepatocytes.

Objective To discuss effects of Wugong Baidu Drink on expressions of Bcl-2, NF-κB mRNA genes related to the apoptosis of HaCaT in psoriasis. Methods Wistar rats were randomly divided into 6 groups:blank group, Western medicine control group, TCM control group, and Wugong Baidu Drink high, medium, and low dose groups. They were given normal saline, methotrexate suspension, compound natural indigo capsule suspension, and the different doses of Wugong Baidu Drink for gavage, respectively. Drug-containing serum of each group was prepared, and was put in the HaCaT respectively to subculture. The intervention effect of different Drug-containing serums on expressions of objective genes were detected through PR-PCR method. Results Drug-containing serum of each group could decrease the expressions of Bcl-2 mRNA and NF-κB mRNA. The most obvious effects were shown in the groups of Western medicine control group and Wugong Baidu Drink high dose group. All Wugong Baidu Drink groups showed a dose-response relationship. Conclusion Wugong Baidu Drink probably can promote the apoptosis of HaCaT by reducing the gene expressions of Bcl-2 and NF-κB. It can also decrease immune response by regulating serum factors related to T cells to play the role of anti-psoriasis.

Objective To investigate the effects of protein-enriched meal on uric acid and renal function among overweight and obese Chinese adults during weight loss. Methods People, 18-55 yearsold, with body mass index 25-35 kg/m2 and triglycerides 1.7-5.4 mmol/L were enrolled. Major exclusion criteria were: type 2 diabetes, weight reducing surgery or use of weight loss drugs, chronic kidney disease, and hepatic dysfunction. A high-protein (HP) diet (protein energy ratio was 30%) or a standard-protein (SP) diet (protein energy ratio was 15%) was provided to eligible subjects for 12 weeks (84 days). Energy intake was calculated by Katch-McArdle formula:basal metabolic rate=370+21.6 × lean body mass (kg) and coefficient of variation. All the subjects were followed up at day 0,week 4,week 8,and week12. The changes of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterin (TC), low density lipoprotein (LDL), uric acid (UA), blood urine nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (Cre) were determined at day 0, week 4, and week 12. Results Ninety-four subjects with HP (n=49) or SP (n=45) were enrolled, and seven subjects were withdrawn for refusing the following visit. The average age was (42.68±8.98) years in HP group, and (41.09±9.67) years in SP group (P>0.05). At week 12, the BMI drop was significant in both groups from baseline, but with no significant difference between the two groups. The decreases of TG (mmol/L) at 4 weeks and 12 weeks were significant compared with the baseline (0 d, 4weeks, 12 weeks:HP:2.18±1.18, 1.77±0.82, 1.86±0.83;SP:2.60±2.67, 2.03±1.28, 1.92±0.79) (P<0.05),but with no significant difference between the two groups. Compared with the baseline, the decrease of UA (mmol/L) at 4 weeks in HP group was significant (0 d, 4 weeks, 12 weeks:HP:326.12± 88.31, 294.76 ± 106.57,307.15 ± 94.70;SP:325.62 ± 87.16,321.51 ± 101.19,315.71 ± 86.77) (P<0.05). The BUN and CRE in both groups increased slightly compared to baseline level, but remained in the normal range. Conclusion Comparison of HP and SP groups showed that renal function did not change significantly, the levels of UA in HP group decreased significantly than that in SP group.

Objective To improve the method to establish a rat model of vascular dementia and to better serve the experimental studies on vascular dementia.Methods We used the method of“repeatedly clipping the carotid artery com-bined with injection of sodium nitroprusside and with permanent unilateral carotid artery ligation” to prepare a rat model of vascular dementia.The drug piracetam was used to validate the established rat model in respect of the behavior and histopa-thology.Results Different from the reports of previous research, firstly, the results of this study suggested that injection dose of sodium nitroprusside should be 2.0 mg/kg, room temperature should be controlled at 28℃ during surgical opera-tion, and kept at 25℃postoperatively for 24 hours.Under these experimental conditions, the rats were stable and the death rate was reduced.Secondly,“repeatedly clipping carotid artery combined with permanent unilateral carotid artery ligation”could cut off about a third of cerebral blood supply, and causing chronic cerebral ischemia, which is seemingly more con-sistent with the pathogenesis of vascular dementia.Experimental results showed that compared with the control group, the navigation incubation period was extended and space search ability became worse in the model group, cell number was de-creased, with blurred cell contour and deeply stained cytoplasm, and cell nuclei were not clear in the hippocampal tissue. Conclusions Our findings indicate that the improved methodrepeatedly clipping the carotid artery combined with injec-tion of sodium nitroprusside and with permanent unilateral carotid artery ligationcan be used to efficiently establish a rat model of vascular dementia.The similar results of experiment using piracetam validate that this rat model can be used in vascular dementia-related experimental studies.

Objective: To observe the effect of elk antlers ethanolic fluidextract on behavior and immune function of aging model mice. Methods: ICR mice were randomly divided into 4 groups: Normal control group (NG), model control group (MG), low-dose drug treatment group (LG,2g/kg) and high-dose drug treatment group (HG,4g/kg). Mice were given subcutaneous injection of D-galactose (D-gal) at 120 mg/kg to induce subacute aging model. At the same time LG and HG were respectively administrated corresponding concentration of elk antlers ethanolic extract. Six weeks later, the learning and memory test was run by Y-maze. Then single agar immunodiffusion method was used to detect IgG level in serum, and spleen lymphocyte transforming stimulation index (SI) was determined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) method as well as the concentration of Interleukin-2(IL-2) and interferon-gama(IFN-?) in serum were determined by ELISA method. Results: The memory and immune function of aging mice declined signif icantly. Elk antlers ethanolic fluidextract could obviously improve memory ability, increase the IgG level, raise the lymphocyte transforming SI, and elevate the concentration of IL-2 and IFN-? in model mice induced by D-gal. Conclusions: Elk antlers ethanolic extract could improve behavior and immune function of aging mice to delay aging process.
