AIM: To investigate the expressions of the cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor (CKI) in human corneal epithelium.METHODS: The expressions of CKI, P27, P21 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) were tested in different regions of corneal epithelium by SP immunohistochemistry.RESULTS: Limbal basal cells stained positively for PCNA while central corneal epithelium cells stained negatively for PCNA, their difference was statistically significant (P＜0.01).Positive staining for P27 and P21 were observed in central epithelium, but there was no positive staining in limbal epithelium. Their difference were also statistically significant (P＜0.01).CONCLUSION: The different expressions of CKI P27, P21and PCNA in different corneal epithelial regions suggest that in limbal basal layer there are a group of cells that have higher proliferative capacity staying in G1 status, namely stem cell.

BACKGROUND: We can investigate mechanism of endogenous neuroprotection in rat cerebral hypoxic tolerance trial. OBJECTIVE: To observe the characteristics of cerebral hypoxic tolerance in rat models with cerebral hypoxic preconditioning. DESIGN: Randomized controlled observation. SETTING: Department of Neurology, China-Japanese Friendship Hospital, Jilin University. MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in the Basic Animal Experimental Center, China-Japan Friendship Hospital, Jilin University from April 2003 to April 2004. Inbred line healthy Wistar rats, of either sex, with the body mass of 200-300 g, were randomly assigned into normal control group (n=6), sham operation group (n=6), ischemic control group (n=20), hypoxic preconditioning (3 hours, 8% O2 and 92% N2) plus ischemic group (n=60) (according to different hypoxic phases, there were 5 time phases: 30 minutes, 1, 3, 5 and 6 hours with 12 rats in each time phase), hypoxic preconditioning group (n=18) [according to different hypoxic phases, there were 3 time phases: 1, 3 and 5 hours with 6 rats in each time phase, 3 rats received TTC staining and 3 rats received hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining]. METHODS: ①Hypoxic preconditioning: Firstly, natrica calx was put into closed glass container to absorb CO2 and O2, secondly, mixed gas of 8% O2 and 92% N2 was input, and then animals were put into the container, 3 rats each time. Temperature and humidity were kept steadily. ②Permanent ischemic middle cerebral artery rat models were established. ③The models were determined with a series in procedures: neurological score, infarcted volume evaluation, pathological sample preparation, immunohistochemical staining, imaging analysis and so on. ④The data were compared in groups with variance analysis.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Changes in cerebral infarcted volume, neurological score and pathological morphology in rats of experimental group and control group. RESULTS: Neurological score in the hypoxic preconditioning (8% O2, at hours 1, 3 and 5) plus ischemic group was lower than in the ischemic control group(P＜0.01). Neurological score at minute 30 and hour 6 after hypoxia (8% O2) had insignificant difference in the ischemic control group. Mean cerebral infarcted volume ratio in the hypoxic preconditioning (8% O2, at hours 1, 3 and 5) plus ischemic group was lower than in the ischemic control group(P＜0.01). Mean cerebral infarcted volume ratio after hypoxia (8% O2, at minute 30 and hour 6) had insignificant difference with ischemic control group (P＞0.05). CONCLUSION: Hypoxic preconditioning in rats can effectively release nerve injury induced by focal cerebral ischemia, suggesting that it has protective effect on brain. The procedure of establishing cerebral ischemic tolerance models with hypoxic preconditioning, which is simple and stable, with little injury on experimental animals, is a useful tool for studying cerebral ischemic tolerance.

Objective To explore the mechanisms of recovery from aphasia by using speech-activated single photon emission computed tomography(SPECT)brain imaging.Methods The SPECT brain imaging of 7 aphasic patients caused by various brain disorders were performed while they were at rest and performing oral reading,respec- tively,with an one-day interval.A semi-quantitative analysis of regional cerebral blood flow(rCBF)was conducted using region of interesting(ROI).The change of rCBF before and after reading was calculated and compared to ana- lyze the role of both hemispheres in the recovery from aphasia.Results It was found that the activation pattern of brain region was associated with the speech performance of the patients.The activated brain regions were mainly loca- ted at the left hemisphere in 5 patients whose reading capacity was relatively better,and mainly at the right hemi- sphere in the other 2 patients who had poor performance in reading.Conclusion After a focal lesion of the left hemisphere,the recovery of speech function might be mainly attributed to the repair of the damaged left hemisphere language network.When the left-hemispheric centers were permanently impaired,the brain would recruit some right- hemisphere regions for speech processing,but this strategy was less effective than the repair of the original speech-rel- evant network.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of growth hormone inhibiting IPS-induced apoptosis of alveolar type Ⅱ epithelial cells in rats. Method Isolated and purified AEC Ⅱ cells of SD rats were divided into 5 groups,8 duplicate wells in each group. Group I served as control group; group Ⅱ:LPS 10 ug/ml;group Ⅲ:LPS 10 ug/ml + GH 50 ng/ml;gronp IV :LPS 10 ug/ml + GH 100ng/ml; group V: LPS 10 ug/ml + GH 200 ng/ml. LPS was finally added into wells in group Ⅱ～V . After the cells were incubated for 24 hours, the apoptosis rate and necrosis rate of AEC Ⅱ cells stained with Annexin V/PI were detected by flow cytometry and Fas protein of AEC Ⅱ cells were measured by immunocytochemistry. Results (1) The apoptosis rate and necrosis rate of AECⅡ cells in group Ⅱ,Ⅲ, Ⅳ and V were significantly hitOer than those in group Ⅰ( qapoptosis rate Ⅰ, Ⅱ =12.26,qnecroeis Ⅰ,Ⅱ=18.34, qapoptosisⅠ.Ⅱ=9.63,qnecrosisⅠ,nⅡ=5.75,qapotosisⅠ,Ⅳ= 9.15,qnecrosisⅠ,Ⅳ= 5.39, qapotosisⅠ,Ⅴ = 10.87, qnecrosisⅠ,Ⅴ = 5.91, P 0.05), but lower in group Ⅲ,IV and V than those in group Ⅱ(qapoptosis Ⅱ,Ⅲ= 15.24, qpecrosisⅡ,Ⅲ=16.38, qapoptosisⅡ.Ⅳ = 15.95,qnecrosisⅡ.Ⅳ=16.95, qapoptosis rate Ⅱ,Ⅴ=14.57, qnecrosisⅡ.Ⅴ = 15.61,P<0.05). (2)The positive rate of Fas expression on AEC Ⅱ cells in group Ⅱ,Ⅲ, Ⅳ and V was obviously higher than that in group Ⅰ. ( q Ⅰ.Ⅱ=35.67, qⅠ ,Ⅲ=14.32, qⅠ,Ⅳ = 13.87, qⅠ.Ⅴ=26.16, P<0.05), but lower in gronpⅢ ,Ⅳ and Ⅴ than that in gronp Ⅱ(qⅡ,Ⅲ=12.54, qⅡ,Ⅳ = 13.02, qⅡ,Ⅴ =6.96, P<0.05). Conclusions GH can probably de-crease the apoptosis of AEC Ⅱ cells by inhibiting Fas expression.

Reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detector was employed for simultaneous determination of six components and specific chromatograms analysis in Liuwei Wuling tablets with gradient elution of acetonitrile and water containing 0.1% phosphoric acid as mobile phase. The results showed that six components containing specnuezhenide, phillyrin, schisandrin, schisantherin A, schizandrin A and schizandrin B were separated well under the analytical condition. The average recoveries ranged from 98.96% to 100.5% with RSD less than 2. 0%. Twenty-five common peaks were selected as the specific chromatograms of Liuwei Wuling tablets with schisantherin A as the reference peak. Similarities calculated by cosine of angle, correlation coefficient and peak area ratio similarity (PAR) were all above 0. 95, indicating a good similarity between the reference and twenty batches of samples. Grubbs test and cluster analysis indicated that the established HPLC fingerprints and HPLC quantitative analysis can be used efficiently in the quality control of Liuwei Wuling tablets.
