Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)exist in and can be isolated from the bone marrow of adult human being and animals and can be induced to differentiate into different cells.They are easy to be isolated,cultivated,and amplified.They are also less immunogenic in the body and can avoid ethical dispute when applied in transplantation.Studies have shown that BMSCs can be induced to differentiate into neural cells under certain conditions in vitro.This article reviewed the recent development in the research on the induction protocols for neural differentiation of BMSCs and the possible mechanisms.

Objective To study the relationship between personality and defense mechanism of obsessivecompulsive disorder (OCD) patients.Methods Thirty-four OCD patients were tested with Swedish University Scales of Personality(SSP) and defensive style questionnaire( DSQ), and the result was compared with that of thirty-one normal controls.Results The SSP scores of STA,PsTA,SS,E,TI and M of OCD patients were significantly higher than that of normal controls (t = 2.06 ～ 5.10, P ＜ 0.05 ).Comparing with normal controls, OCD patients tended to use immature and intermediate mechanism such as projection, passive aggression, unconscious emerge, phantasy, withdrawl and reaction formation, but less used mature mechanism such as sublimation, suppression and humor (t = -2.27 ～ 6.73, P＜ 0.05 ).All subscales of SSP in OCD patients, excluding SD and D, had positive correlation with total score of immature mechanism (r = 0.375 ～ 0.719, P ＜ 0.05 ).The OCD patients' SSP scores of STA had positive correlation with mature mechanism (r = 0.378, P ＜ 0.05 ).The OCD patients' STA, PsTA, I, AS, E, M,VTA and PhTA score of SSP had positive correlation with intermediate mechanism (r= 0.381 ～0.548, P＜ 0.05 ).All subscales of SSP in OCD patients, excluding SD, had positive correlation with total score of concealment (r =0.342 ～ 0.530, P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion OCD patients have the neurotic and aggressive features of personality;and the personalities of OCD patients have significant correlation with defense mechanism.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of flurbiprofen axetil on lung ischemia-reperfusion(I/R) injury in rats.MethodsSixty healthy male SD rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly divided into 3 groups( n =20 each): group sham operation(group S) ;group I/R and group flurbiprofen axetil (group FA).The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 2％ pentobarbital 50 mg/kg and tracheostomized and mechanically ventilated.Lung I/R was induced by 60 min occlusion of left hilus pulmonis followed by 120 min reperfusion.In FA group flurbiprofen axetil 10 mg/kg was injected iv at 15 min before occlusion of left hilus pulmonis.The rats were sacrificed at 120 min of reperfusion and then the lungs were removed for measurement of lung wet/dry weight ratio,apoptosis index,NF-κB activity,Bcl-2 and Bax protien expression,and microscopic examination.Bcl-2/Bax ratio was caculated.ResultsI/R significantly increased lung wet/dry weight ratio,apoptosis index,NF-κB activity,Bcl-2 and Bax protien expression,and decreased Bcl-2/Bax ratio.Flurbiprofen axetil preconditioning significantly attenuated the I/R-induced changes in lung wet/dry weight ratio,apoptosis index,NF-κB activity,Bcl-2 and Bax protien expression,and Bcl-2/Bax ratio in group FA as compared with group I/R.Flurbiprofen axetil preconditioning also ameliorated I/R-induced lung damage.ConclusionFlurbiprofen axetil can attenuate lung I/R injury in rats by inhibiting NF-κB activity,up-regulating Bcl-2 expression and down-regulating Bax expression and inhibiting apoptosis.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of wuling capsule compared with deanxit in treatment of patients with depression or anxiety status. Methods A total of 139 patients with depression or anxiety status were enrolled in a multi-center double blind clinical trial. All patients were randomized into two groups, 67 patients in wuling capsule group and 73 patients in deanxit group. Efficacy and adverse effects were evaluated with Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD),Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Treatment Emergent Symptoms Scale (TESS) before treatment and 1, 2, 4, 6 weeks after treatment to verify the noninferiority of wuling capsule. Results There was no significant difference in score decline of HAMA and HAMD between the two groups (HAMA: wuling vs deanxit group: 9.0 ± 5.4 vs 10.3 ± 5.4, F = 2.11, P =0.148 ; HAMD: wuling vs deanxit: 9.1±5.6 vs 10.5±5.7, F = 1.61, P=0.207). There was no significant difference in response rate and remission rate between the two groups. No significant difference was found in score decline of PSQI between the two groups (wuling vs deanxit group: 4.1±4.5 vs 5.0 ± 4.2, F = 0.72, P=0.192). The incidence of adverse events was 41% in the wuling group and 55% in the deanxit group respectively. The main adverse effects were symptoms of gastrointestinal and neurology system. Conclusion Safe and well tolerated, wuling capsule improves the anxiety, depression and insomnia symptoms of patients with depression or anxiety status.

Objective：To explore the distribution of personality disorder tendency of outpatients in psychological counseling departments.Methods：Systematic sampling was used to get the sample population from Shanghai Psychological Counseling Center.The Personality Diagnostic Questionnaire(PDQ~(+4))was administered to 1402 clients to screen personality disorders.Results：The subscales for different type of personality disorder(PD)and total score of PDQ~(+4) were higher than normal sample(e.g.total score of PDQ~(+4):client(38.23±17.04)vs.normal sample(22.79±14.10),P<0.001).The score of borderline subscales in female clients were higher than that of males [borderline:female(4.25±2.48)vs.male(3.97±2.41),P<0.05],the score of antisocial,paranoid and schizotypal subscales in male clients were higher than that of females [antisocial:female(1.31)vs.male(1.71),P<0.001;paranoid:female(2.75)vs.male(3.02),P<0.01;schizotypal:female(3.31)vs.male(3.56),P<0.05].Age stratification showed that the subscales for different type of PD of PDQ~(+4) were decreased with age [e.g.,total score of PDQ~(+4):18～24 years(41.73)vs.25～34 years(39.46)vs.35～44 years(33.88)vs.≥ 45 years(30.64),Ps<0.001],the positive rate of PDQ~(+4) subscales of obsessive-compulsive(58.5%)and avoidant PDs(54.0%)were higher than others,followed by borderline PD(44.4%).Factor analysis was used for the score of PDQ~(+4),factor 1 to 3 corresponded to cluster C,B and A personality disorders respectively,and the total variance explained 67%. Conclusion：There are different rates of personality deviation between psychological counseling clients and normal sample in China.Some traits of personality disorders can be improved with the increasing of age.The abstracted factors by factor analysis are very consistent with what originally proposed in the theory of personality disorder.It should be paid attention to PD tendency of clients during psychological counseling.

Objective To study the distribution of Oncomelania hupensis snails in mountainous regions and the dynamic charaeteristics of the distribution.Methods An environment calledLanbaoclosed to Puge County.Sichuan Provinee WaS selected as the study field.Random sampling was designed to determine the investigation sites.The snails were collected and the hying snaila were identified by the method of dissection in the laboratory.The distribution of snails was analyzed by some statistical indices,such as mean,variance and so on.Then the negative binomial distribution.log-normal distribution and exponential distribution were fitted to the snail data by the method of maximum likelihood estimation to explore the snail distribution in different time.Results The negative binomial distribution was fitted well to the snail data in April,May,July,August,September,November in 2008,and no distribution was fined to the snail data in June,October.December in 2008 and February in 2009.Conclusions The distribution of Oncomelania hupensis in mountainous regions is not simple negative binomial distribution,but pwbably a dynamic process and an uncertain distribution.

The corn germ protein tested was a by-product from, corn starch plant and it contained more lysine (average 5.7%) and a relatively ideal proportion of eight essential amino acids similar to the 1973 FAO/WHO provisional amino acid pattern. A 5-week rat growth experiment was conducted to evaluate the nutritive value of corn germ protein by using body weight gain, nitrogen balance and apparent net protein utilization as assessment criteria.The feed of the experimental group was made of wheat protein supplemented with 17.3% germ protein and that of the control with 2.4% wheat glu- ten to made the final protein level of both feeds equivalent to 10%.These results showed that the body weight gain of rat in the experimental group was higher than that of the control group regardless of female or male, the body weight gain per 100g feed consumed in two groups of female was 19.0g and 12.2g and that of male was 17.6g and 10.4g respectively (p

Objective To investigate the difference of quality of life in patients with different symptom dimensions of obsessive-compulsive disorder(OCD).Methods Collected 54 cases of outpatient and the first inpatient with OCD to be the research group and 54 normal persons were the control group.The quality of life was assessed with SF-36,and compared the scores.An analysis was performed on the major categories of the YBOCS-SC to derive symptom dimension scores.Results Compared to the control group,patients with OCD showed significant impairment in seven domains of quality of life,especially in the mental health(t=12.474,P＜0.01),the roleemotional(t=9.407,P＜0.01),the social functioning(t=8.862,P＜0.01) and the vitality(t=8.057,P＜0.01).The patients with distinct symptom dimensions of ①symmetry/order,contribution rate 21.60％ ; ②contaminate/clean,contribution rate 16.37％; ③ aggression/religion,contribution rate 12.34％; ④ sex/check,contribution rate 10.90％.They showed different severity of the impairments in four domains of quality of life,the role-physical(F=5.199,P=0.004),the bodily pain (F=3.169,P=0.034),the role-emotional (F=9.350,P=0.000),the mental health(F=4.854,P=0.005).The differences mainly found between the ①②③group and the ④group by LSD multiple testing.Conclusion The mental health is severely damaged with OCD patients.There is stability with the structure of the symptom dimensions of OCD.And it maybe showed the heterogeneity of the symptoms for the significant difference of impairments of quality of life in patients with OCD.

Objective By using lung sound spectrum analysis, the clinical efficacy of asthma -relieving manipulation, which is a gentle massage therapy mainly on the acupoints, on acute exacerbation of children asthma was evaluated. Methods We collected the lung sound of 11 children with acute asthmatic attack before and after asthma-relieving manipulation, and then input to the computer for obtaining lung sound spectrum signal data. The sound intensity, average respiratory muscle strength ( RMS) power, total RMS power and the volume of every 25 Hz frequency spectrum were extracted for comparison. Results After asthma-relieving manipulation, the sound intensity, average RMS power, and total RMS power of the children with acute asthmatic attack were significantly lower than those before the manipulation (P<0.01). The results of lung sound spectrum analysis displayed that lung sound volume was significantly lower at frequency band 0~300 Hz after manipulation ( P<0.05 compared with that before the manipulation) . The difference of the lung sound volume was insignificant over frequency band 300 Hz before and after treatment ( P>0.05). Conclusion Lung sound spectrum analysis can be applied to monitor lung function of asthmatic children objectively and quantitatively, and it is a new sensitive method for clinical detection. Asthma-relieving manipulation shows certain effect on acute exacerbation of children asthma.

Aim To investigate the inhibitory effect of hydrogen sulfide on expression of elastin in hypoxic pulmonary hypertensive (HPH) rats. Methods Twenty-four rats were randomly divided into three groups:control group (n=8), hypoxic group (n=8) and hypoxia+NaHS group (n=8). Pulmonary artery mean pressure (mPAP) of three group rats was measured via right ventricular catheterization. Right ventricle and left ventricle+septum of each rats were isolated from intact rats and weight of right ventricle/(weight of left ventricle+septum) ratio was calculated. The percentage of muscularized arteries of small pulmonary arteries was measured using a light microscope. The expression of elastin and TGF-? in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells was observed with immunohistochemistry. Results mPAP and weight of right ventricle/(weight of left ventricle+septum) ratio were significantly higher in rats of hypoxic group than those of control group (P
