BACKGROUND: Cell apoptosis and ventricle reconstitution following myocardial infarction are of mutual cause-effect, and they cause vicious cycle. How to reduce the apoptosis events following myocardial infarction is one of keys to saving heart function.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cell (UCBSMC) transplantation on remaining myocardial tissue of dogs with acute myocardial infarction.DESIGN: A randomized controlled observation.SETTING: Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Xinhua Hospital.MATERIALS: This study was carried out in the Central Laboratory of Xinhua Hospital from October 2005 to May 2007.Thirty-six adult hybrid dogs, male and female in half, were provided by the Animal Experimental Center of Xinhua Hospital.METHODS: Thirty-six dogs were divided into cell transplantation group and control group, with 18 dogs in each according to table of random digit. Mesenchymal stem cells were isolated from the umbilical cord blood of full-term pregnant hybrid dogs, cultured and amplified. Then, they were labeled with Laz gene, in vitro induced with 5-azacytidine, and transplanted into the dogs with acute myocardial infarction in the cell transplantation group. Rats in the control group were injected with the same amount of normal saline. Each dog was euthanized by anesthesia for harvesting myocardial specimen 1,4 and 8 weeks after transplantation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Remaining and apoptosis index detected by TUNEL method. ② Myocardial cell volume and histomorphology detected by confocal microscopy. ③ Histological change of myocardial collagen network detected by haematoxylin-basic fuchsin-picric acid staining.RESULTS: Thirty-six involved experimental dogs all entered the stage of final analysis. ①The apoptosis index in the cell transplantation group was significantly lower than that in the control group 1, 4 and 8 weeks after cell transplantation (P ＜0.05). ② Myocardial cell volume in the cell transplantation group 1, 4 and 8 weeks after cell transplantation was significantly larger than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05). ③ Collagen fiber in the myocardial tissue of dogs in the cell transplantation group was arranged in order and regularly, and in contrast that in the control group was not, and fibers in the control group fused partially.CONCLUSION: UCBSMC transplantation reduces the apoptosis of myocardial cells, promotes the hypertrophy of remaining myocardial cells, regulates myocardial collagen network and improves heart function.

AIM:To explore the application effect of pranoprofen combined with tobramycin and dexamethasone ophthalmic suspension in cataract extraction after IOL implantation.METHODS:Retrospective analysis of the clinical data of cataract patients treated from May 2015 to June 2016 in our hospital.According to the treatment methods, patients were divided into tobramycin and dexamethasone ophthalmic suspension with pranoprofen group (combined treatment group) and pranoprofen treatment group.The difference of visual acuity, intraocular pressure, anterior chamber flash change, satisfaction rate and symptom score before and after treatment in two groups were observed.RESULTS:The vision of the two groups before treatment had no difference(P>0.05).At 1wk and 1mo after treatment, the visual acuity of the two groups all improved compared with before treatment, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05).Before treatment, the anterior chamber flare of the two groups had no difference(P>0.05).At 1wk and 1mo after treatment, the anterior chamber flare of combined treatment group was lower, the difference was statistically different (t=2.435, 1.864;P<0.05).The symptom score of the two groups before treatment had no difference(P>0.05).After treatment, the symptoms and signs of combined treatment group was significantly lower than that of pranoprofen group (t=2.586, 7.820;P<0.05).The satisfaction rate of the combined treatment group patients was 100%, significantly higher than pranoprofen group.CONCLUSION:Pranoprofen and tobradex in the treatment of cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation has good application effect, can significantly improve the patient's symptoms and signs.

In this paper, the domestic varieties and quality standard of Leguminosae medicinal plants used in Tibetan medicine were analyzed. The results showed that there were 36 genera and 142 species (including varieties), as well as 64 medicinal materials varieties of Leguminosae plants were recorded in relevant literatures. In relevant Tibetan standards and literatures, there are great differences in varieties, sources, used parts, and efficacy of medicinal plants. Among them, about 38.0% (including 54 species) of the endemic plants, about 25.4% (including 36 species) of the original plants have medicinal standard legal records, except 9 kinds of traditional Chinese medicine general quality standard more fairly completed, the most varieties have only description about characters, identification, etc. Therefore it is necessary to reinforce study for the herbal textual, resources and the use present situation, chemical components and biological activity, quality standard, medicinal terms specification, to promote establishment of quality standard system for variety-terminologies-sources of Tibetan medicinal plants.

In this paper, the popular domestic varieties and quality standard of Scrophulariaceae plants used in Tibetan medicine were analyzed. The results showed that there were 11 genera and 99 species (including varieties), as well as 28 medicinal materials varieties of Scrophulariaceae plants were recorded in the relevant literatures. In relevant Tibetan standards arid literatures, there are great differences in varieties, sources, parts, and efficacies of medicinal plant. Among them, about 41.4% (including 41 species) of endemic plants, about 15.2% (including 15 species) of the original plants have medicinal standard legal records, except the medicinal materials of Scrophalaria ningpoensis, Lagotis brevituba, Picrorhiza scrophulariiflora, Veronica eriogyne general, most varieties have not completed quality standard. Consequently it is necessary to reinforce the herbal textual, resources and the use present situation investigation, the effects of the species resources material foundation and biological activity, quality standard, specification the medical terms of the plants, and promote Tibetan medicinal vareties-terminologies-sources such as the criterion and quality standard system for enriching the varieties of Tibetan medicinal materials and Chinese medicinal resources.

Objective To detect the influence of fluoride on the expression TM9SF1 mRNA and Ras mRNA of osteoblasts. Methods The third generation of primary cultured osteoblasts were exposed to a series concentrations of 0,2.5,5.0, 10.0,20.0 mg/L fluoride for 10 days. The influence of different doses of fluorine on the expression of TM9SF1 mRNA and Ras mRNA of osteoblasts cultured in vitro was investigated by SYBR Green I methods. Results The osteoblasts of the control group and the 2.5 mg/L group were in the shape of long spindle, triangle or irregular polygon and had processes, and the cytoplasm was translucent, adjacent cells affixed to each other under light microscope. Those of the 20.0 mg/L group shaped as long spindle or irregular polygon, and some vacuolization and granular materials appeared in cytoplasm. The number of the cells decreased and the volume increased significantly. After exposed to fluoride for 10 days, osteoblasts of 2.5 mg/L group morphologically proliferated. There were statistical siguificances between each groups of TM9SF1 mRNA in human osteoblasts(F = 322.82, P < 0.01). The highest in the 2.5 mg/L group(9326.0 ± 115.97), the expression of TM9SF1 mRNA decreased along with the increasing dose of fluorine. There were statistical significances between 5.0, 10.0,20.0 mg/L groups(6495.0 ± 323.9, 4387.5 ± 545.2, 5962.5 ± 536.7) and control group(9221.0 ± 107.5, all P< 0.01). There was a statistical significance between each groups of Ras mRNA in human osteoblasts(F = 703.28, P < 0.01). The highest in the control group, the expression of Ras mRNA decreased along with the increasing of dose of fluorine. There were statistical significance between 2.5, 5.0, 10.0, 20.0 mg/L groups(6144.5 ± 270.82,5603.5 ± 88.39,3181.0 ± 159.81,4067.5 ± 37.4) and control group(6571.0 ± 196.58). Conclusion The influence on TM9SFI mRNA and Ras mRNA expression in osteoblasts correlates with the dose of fluorine.

Objective To assess the effectiveness of donepezil versus huperzine in the treatment of elderly patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI).Methods Total 122 elderly patients with MCI were divided into two groups:donepezil treatment (5.0 mg once daily) (n=71) and huperzine treatment group (0.1 mg twice daily) (n=51).All the patients were followed up for 24 weeks.Before and 12 weeks,24 weeks after drug treatment,the cognitive functions were evaluated,including MMSE,MOCA,ADAS-cog,CDR,GDS,ADL,HIS and HAMD.Results There was no significant difference in age,sex,education time and neuropsychology rating scales between the groups before drug use.As compared with the score before drug use,the donepezil group showed a significant increase in MMSE after 12-weeks (t=4.47) or 24-weeks (t=6.16) (P＜0.01),a decrease in the score of ADAS-cog after 12-weeks (t=2.33,P＜0.05) or 24-weeks( t=3.68,P＜0.05),and an increase in the score of MOCA after 24-weeks drug use (t=2.56,P＜0.05).The huperzine group showed significant improvement in MMSE after 24-weeks drug use (t=2.80,P＜0.05),but there was no difference in other time points or in the score of MOCA and ADAS-cog as compared with the score before drug use.After 24 weeks' treatment,the donepezil group had higher MMSE (t=2.01,P＜0.05) and lower ADAS-cog (t=2.09,P＜0.05) scores than the huperzine group.30 patients (total effective rate was 42.3 ％) and 9 patients (total effective rate was 17.6 ％ ) became improved in donepezil and huperzine group,respectively,with significant difference (x2 =8.26,P＜0.01 ).There were 5 cases in the donepezil group and 3 cases in the huperzine group getting slight side-effects which disappeared by continuing to take drugs or by adjusting drug taking time.Conclusions Donepezil and huperzine as the cholinesterase inhibitors are effective and safe,and the efficacy of donepezil is faster and better in treating elderly patients with MCI.
