Objective To observe how geniposide as an anti-inflammatory agent through inhibition Toll-like receptor 7/nuclear factor-κB signaling pathways activation, as well as TNF-α and IL-6 release infectioned by influenza virus. Methods Epithelial cells was exposed to human influenza viruses A/Gui/81/23(H3N2) infection for 2 h before treatment with geniposide for 24 h. NF-κB responsive element luciferase reportor gene was transfected and dual luciferase cis-reporting systems was used to assay the transcriptional activity of NF-κB under the stimulated circumstance of influenza virus infection. The phosphory level and nuclear transposition of NF-κB was observed by fluorescence inverted microscope. RT-PCR was used to detect the gene transcription level of TLR7, TNF-α and IL-6. Results The relative luciferase reporter assay of NF-κB was apparently improved by influenza virus infection. But geniposide significantly repressed the relative value of luciferase. The phosphorylation level and rate for nuclear transposition of NF-κB was apparently improved by influenza A virus infection observed by fluorescence inverted microscope. But geniposide significantly repressed the phosphorylation level and rate for nuclear transposition. RT-PCR showed upregulation of TLR7 and pre-inflammatory markers TNF-α and IL-6 in A549 cells infected by influenza virus, geniposide had a significant effect on the expression of TLR7 and inflammatory markers TNF-α and IL-6 after treated with influenza virus. Conclusion Geniposide as an antiinflammatory agent antagonized influenza A virus infection through inhibiting Toll-like receptor 7/nuclear factor-κB signaling pathways activation, as well as on the downregulation of the downstream inflammatory markers target gene expression TNF-α and IL-6.

Objective To investigate the effect of Naoxintong on nuclear transcription factor-κB ( NF-κB ) , matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)and TNF-αin the brain of ischemic rat models.Methods One hundred and ten healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into sham operated group ( n=30 ) , model control group ( n=40 ) and Naoxintong treatment group(n=40).Each group was further divided into five sub group by 0.5d, 1 d, 3 d, 5 d and 7 d after ischemia-reperfusion.The middle cerebral artery occlusion ischemia reperfusion rat models were prepared by Zea Longa method;meanwhile the MRI and the Bederson score were used to select the successful models .In order to observe the changing process of the ischemic brain tissue after given Naoxintong capsule , six rats in each group each timepoint were examined by MRI .The expression levels of protein and mRNA of NF-κB, MMP-9 and TNF-αwere detected respectively by western blot and real time PCR .Results Cerebral infarction volume of Naoxintong treatment group was significantly reduced compared with the model control group .The mRNA and protein levels of NF-κB, MMP-9 and TNF-αof the Naoxintong treatment group decreased significantly compared with the model control group (P <0.05).The mRNA and protein levels of NF-κB, MMP-9 and TNF-αhad no significant difference between the sham group and Naoxintong treatment group .Conclusion Naoxintong has a neuroprotection effect on cerebral ischemia via alleviating the inflammatory factors in the ischemic area .

Objective To study the imaging manifestations of parietal coronary artery and the diagnostic value with 64-slice spiral CT.Methods 1000 patients with clinically suspected coronary heart disease underwent 64-slice spiral CT scan,the images were dealed with curved planar reconstruction and analysed at workstation.Results Parietal coronary arteriae were found in 380 patients,among them,314 cases were at the LAD,32 cases were at the CX,13 cases were at the RCA and multiple arteriae involved in 21cases.Conclusion 64-slice spiral CT coronary angiography is an effective methed in diagnosis of parietal coronary artery.

0.05 ) with the CsA group ( 28.15 ? 8.33 )U/d, ( 13.05 ? 2.17 )U/d at the first month and 1 year after the operation. One year after the operation, 21 patients ( 63.63 %) were subjected to anti-hypertensiom, 5 patients ( 15.15 %) to anti-hyperlipidemia treatment and 3 patients ( 9.09 %) to liver protection treatment due to abnormal liver function in FK506 group, while in the CsA group 28 patients ( 90.32 %) were subjected to anti-hypertension, 13 patients ( 41.94 %) to anti-hyperlipidemia treatment and 11 patients ( 35.48 %) to liver protection treatment due to abnormal liver function. There were significant differences between the two groups.Conclusion The small dose low concentration FK506 is effective in the end stage renal disease of diabetic renal allograft recipients and side effect incidence of it was low, and it has almost the same influence on the glucose metabolism as the CsA.

To improve the quality of teaching,stimulate students'interest in studying medical cytobiology,and nurture the medical students with ability of practice,solid theory and innovation,we have carried on discussions about different kinds of teaching methods and discovered such results:If teachers can integrate the most recent development of medical cytobiology with teaching,strengthen the relationship between the real life and the clinical practice,and update the teaching contents with multi-teaching methods,we will receive a satisfactory teaching effect.

Objective This study was designed to investigate the expression and clinical significance of transcription factor E2F-1 and apoptosis-off gene Bcl-2 in human colorectal carcinoma.Methods Immunohistochemistry is used to detect the expression of E2F-1、Bcl-2 proteins in 60 cases of human colorectal carcinoma tissues and their corresponding normal mucosa.Results The positive expression rate of E2F in cancer tissues is 56.7%,while the positive expression rate of E2F in corresponding normal mucosa is 6.7%,so the comparison between two tissues is significant (P

Objective To summarize the experiences of Nuss procedure with thoracoscope for repairing pectus excavatum.Methods 21 cases of pectus excavatum were treated by Nuss procedure with thoracoscope.In these patients,10 had symmetric pectus excavatum and 11 had asymmetric one.Results The operation in all patients were successful.The mean operating time wag(70.7±9.6)min and the mean intraoperative blood loss was(20.3±10.9)ml.The average hospital length of stay was(5.3±1.1)days,the average durante dolors was(6.9±4.0)days.The exceUent rate was 81.0%(17/21),including 90.0%(9/10)in symmetric pectus excavatum and 72.7%(8/11)in asymmetric pectus cxcavatum.Conclusion Nuss procedure is easy to perform,with minimal invasion,short operating time,and less blood loss.Nuss procedure is suitable for the symmetric pectus excavatum.

Tissue factor(TF)is the most important factor in the physiological coagulation process.TF also plays important roles in tumor growth,angiogenesis,invasion and metastasis by combining with factor VII.In recent years,targeted therapy for the TF has made remarkable progress,showing its significant inhibition of tumor tissue and metastasis.

Objective To study the effect of intra-pulmonary arterial anti-tumor necrosis factor-α antibody(TNF-α Ab) on ultra-structure of lung after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods Forty New Zealand rabbits were selected and randomly divided into four groups:group Ⅰ-Ⅲ underwent CPB; group Ⅳ only received open chest operation.In the group Ⅱ,rabbit TNF-α Ab(27 ng/kg) was dropped into the pulmonary artery when the aorta was clamped and CPB continued 30 minute.Pulmonary arterial perfusion was given to the group I instead.Blood TNF-α and neutrophils count from right and left atrium and oxygenation index in the four groups were determined perioperatively.Lung water content,TNF-αmessenger RNA,Bcl-2 protein,Bax protein,Bcl-2/Bax,apoptosis index and pathomorphological change were measured in the lung tissues.Results TNF-α Ab can restrain leukocyte accumulation and reduce releasing of TNF-α in the lung and improve oxygenation index.Moreover,TNF-α Ab can reduce the expression of Bax on alveolar epithelial cells and alleviate the decreasing of the expression of Bcl-2.It can also reduce the occurrence of apoptosis and attenuate pathomorphological changes in the lung tissue.Conclusion Intra-pulmonary arterial antitumor necrosis factor-α antibody markedly lessens the injury of inflammatory reaction and ultra-structure of lung after CPB via Bcl-2/Bax pathway.
