Objective To evaluate the possibility and efficiency of nanoparticles as a new vector in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene transfection. Methods Nanoparticle-VEGF (Np/VEGF)complex was prepared with poly (D, L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) loading VEGF165 gene using the multiple emulsion (w/o/w) technique. The envelopment efficiency and size of the complex were determined. Rat myocardial cells were cultured in vitro, and the Np/VEGF was transfected into the cultured myocardial cells. Then RT-PCR and ELISA were used to evaluate whether the Np/VEGF increased the level of gene expression. Four New Zealand rabbits were used, the suspension of Np/VEGF was injected into myocardial tissue of rabbits after thoracotomy. 96h after the operation, the tissue sections of the implant sites were observed with transmission electron microscope (TEM) to determine the process of nanoparticles as vectors for gene transfer to cardiac myocytes. Results The envelopment efficiency and size of the Np/VEGF complex thus prepared were 1.87% and 25-300nm respectively. RT-PCR and ELISA showed that VEGF gene could be successfully transfected into myocardial cells by nanoparticle, and NP/VEGF significantly enhanced gene transfection efficiency, and it was more effective than plasmid. 96h after the operation, a great number of nanoparticles were observed in myocardial cytoplasm and nucleus with TEM, and many nanoparticles began to dissolve and degrade, suggesting that the DNA was released slowly from the nanoparticles localized in the cytoplasmic compartment, and was then transferred into the nucleus. Conclusions NP/VEGF can act as a vector to transfect VEGF gene in vitro and in vivo, it significantly enhanced gene transfection efficiency, and it was more effective than plasmid.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of microwave tissue coagulation (MTC) to treat verruca vulgaris. MethodsWe observed the lesion healing, post- operation infection and scar forma- tion of verruca vulgaris 182 patients in who received MTC treatment. ResultsThe one - operation cure rate was 87.75 ％. The post - operation infection rate was 2.90 ％. The healing time varied from 1 to 8 weeks according to the different lesion location. No obvious scar was observed except 2 patients. ConclusionMTC is a convenient, effective and safe method of treatment for verruca vulgaris.

Objective To study the mechanism of NS1619 on airway remodeling in asthmatic mice. Methods A total of 24 healthy female BALB/c mice were randomly divided into 3 groups:the control group, the oval albumin (OVA) group (the asthma group) and the NS1619 group (the intervention group), 8 mice in each group. Asthma group was induced with OVA, chal-lenged by continuous inhalation with 5%OVA from day 19 to 23, then changed to 3 times per week from day 24 to 55. Interven-tion group was inhaled with NS1619 (30μmol/L) before OVA. Control group was given with normal saline. The thickness of air-way smooth muscle and the area of collagen deposition in lung tissue slices were observed by HE and Masson staining, measured by a computer assisted image analysis system. The concentration ofα-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) in cells was detected by immunohistochemistry. The expression of platelet derived grouth factor-BB, PDGF-BB (PDGF-BB) in serum was measured by immunosorbent assay. Results Compared with the asthma group, the pathologic changes of lung tissue, the thickness of airway smooth muscle and collagen deposition in the group treated with NS1619 were signiifcantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the asthma group, the levels ofα-SMA in cells and PDGF-BB in serum in NS1619 treated group were signiifcantly decreased (P<0.05). Conclusions NS1619 partly inhibited airway remodeling in asthmatic mice, partially by down-regulating the expres-sion level ofα-SMA and PDGF-BB.

A method was established for the simultaneous determination of the total fatty acid esters of chloropropanols in edible oils by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry combined with isotope dilution technology. The samples were hydrolyzed with sodium methylate-methanol, and then purified by diatomite cartridge. After being derivatized with heptafluorobutyrylimidazole ( HFBI ), the target analytes were determined by GC-MS with the deuteriumchloropropanols esters as the internal standards. An excellent linear correlation in the range of 0. 050-2. 000 mg / L was acquired for 3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) esters, 2-MCPD esters, dichloropropan-2-ol (1,3-DCP) esters and 2,3-dichloropropan-1-ol (2,3-DCP) esters, with all the correlation coefficients (r) higher than 0. 9995. The limits of detection (LODs) for 3-MCPD esters, 2-MCPD esters, 1,3-DCP esters and 2,3-DCP esters were 0. 015, 0. 015, 0. 030, and 0. 030 mg / kg, respectively, and the limits of quantitation (LOQ) were 0. 050, 0. 050, 0. 100, and 0. 100 mg / kg, respectively. The average spike recoveries of the four kinds of chloropropanols esters in blank extra virgin olive oil matrix were typically in a range of 87. 0% -110. 5% with the relative standard deviations (RSDs) less than 10. 1% . The detection rates of 3-MCPD esters, 2-MCPD esters, 1,3-DCP esters and 2,3-DCP esters in 74 edible oil samples were 94. 6% , 63. 5% , 5. 4% , and 0% , respectively. The contamination levels of 3-MCPD esters, 2-MCPD esters and 1,3-DCP esters were in the range of not detected (ND) to 10. 646 mg / kg, ND to 3. 617 mg / kg and ND to 0. 089 mg / kg, respectively. This method is accurate and rugged for the simultaneous determination of total fatty acid esters of chloropropanols in edible vegetable oils.
