In vitro experiment, results showed the that the LH secretion of adenohypophysis incubated with Ginsenosides ( G ) and Pantoc-rine ( P ) was significantly increased, similar to the exciting effect of LRH which stimulats LH secretion. By addition of G or P and Indomethacin (an inhibitor of PGs synthesis) at the same time, however, the LH secretion was significantly decreased. It appears that PGs may be involved in the regulation of the exciting effect of G and P on LH secretion. The experiment in vivo also demonstrated that in healthy young male rats injected with P by S.c.,thetestosterone content in plasma had significant increase, that the binding capacity of testicular tissue to 125I-HCG (receptor function) did not change clearly.

Three hundred and thirty eight patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus( DM) admitted from January 2006 to June 2009 and 50 healthy subjects (control group) were enrolled in the study. Platelet glycoprotein PAC-1 and CD62P levels were measured in both groups. Compared with control group, plasma PAC-1 and CD62P levels of DM patients increased significantly (P ＜0.01). Patients were divided into three groups according to their urinary albumin excretion rate ( UAER) . PAC-1 and CD62P levels in macroalbuminuria group (UAER≥200μg/min) were significantly higher than those in normoalbuminuria group( UAER <20μg/min) and microalbuminuria group (20μg/min≤UAER ＜ 200μg/min) (both P＜ 0.05). The results indicate that plasma levels of PAC-1 and CD62P, which reflect platelet activation, are the independent risk factors for diabetic nephropathy.

A Review This article reviewed the characteristics of the laser scanning confocal microscope and its application in the research of the ischemic heart disease ,including the morphology ,apoptosis and necrosis of the myocardium, the express of the adhesion molecule, and the Ca 2+ ion in the myocardium.

Aim To observe the effects of 17?-estradiol(E2)and exercise on the protein expression of peroxisome proliferators activated receptor ?(PPAR?)in bone tissues and bone marrow adipocytes in ovariectomized rats.Methods Forty female Sprague-Dawley rats,aged three months,were randomly divided into the following four groups:sham-operation(Sham),ovariectomized(OVX),ovariectomized plus moderate-intensity treadmill exercise(EX,18 m?minute-1,45 min?day-1,5 uphill,4 times?week-1)and ovariectomized treated with E2(25 ?g?kg-1,3 times?week-1)group.At the end of experiment,the morphological changes of femur and tibia were observed decalcifiedly by HE staining and the protein expression of bone PPAR? was detected by Western blot.Results The number of fat vacuoles and PPAR? protein expression in OVX group was significantly higher than that of other three groups.Conclusion E2 and exercise can benefit the bone morphological structure and these effects might be partly related to the inhibition of both PPAR? protein expression in bone tissues and adipogenic differentiation of bone marrow in OVX rats.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of testing the high methylation of ppENK gene in stool with methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP) assay in pancreatic cancer diagnosis.Methods Twenty-four fresh stool samples of pancreatic cancer patients and six healthy control samples were collected.The methylation status of ppENK gene in all the stool samples was detected by MSP assay.The positive rate of wild-type ppENK gene in all the stool samples was determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).And 10 non wild-type ppENK gene negative pancreatic cancer samples were collected,and K-ras gene mutation was detected by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP).The single cell suspension of pancreatic cancer PC3 cell line was added into stool sample from the same healthy individual,the positive rate of ppENK gene methylation was detected by MSP assay.The minimum number of pancreatic cancer cell was calculated when methylation was positive.Results The rate of methylation detection in 30 samples was 0 (0/30); and the rate of non-methylation detection was 10％ (3/30).The rate of wild-type ppENK detection was 6.7％ (2/30).By PCR-RFLP assay,eight were successfully amplified and seven had mutation in 12th code of K-ras gene in 10 selected wild-type ppENK gene negative pancreatic cancer samples.The minimum number of pancreatic cancer cells needed for ppENK methylation band positive detected by MSP was 50 cell/ml.Conclusion Detecting ppENK gene methylation status in stool samples of pancreatic cancer patients by MSP assay has not yet become the method of pancreatic cancer screening and diagnosis.
