Chongqing Medicine 2015;(9):1153-1156,1161
Objective To develop an appropriate and simple decellularization protocol for preparing decellularized liver bio-logical scaffold(DLBS) .Methods Through immune-ofluorescence analysis ,scanning electron microscope ,quantification of Glyco-samin-oglycans(GAGs) and DNA ,we evaluated the effectiveness of low concentrations of SDS(0 .25% ,0 .50% ) and 1% Triton X-100 in the preservation of extracellular matrix of rat livers .Then ,we assessed Cytotoxicity of DLBS treated with three methods by MTT assay .Results Residual DNA after SDS(0 .25% ,0 .50% ) treatments were below 50 ng/mg dry weight ,which were less than Triton X-100 treatments .The content of GAGs in the 0 .25% SDS and 1% Triton X-100-treated scaffolds were higher than other detergent-treated scaffolds .The result of MTT assay showed that the liver scaffolds treated with three methods were not cytotoxic to proliferation of C3A cells .Conclusion The protocol containing 0 .25% SDS and a perfusion rate of 5 mL/min could be a rapid and effective decellularization protocol .DLBS constructed using this protocol could be an ideal material for preparing a transplant-able organ .

Chinese Journal of Immunology 2014;(10):1378-1382
Objective:To investigate the relationship between changes of the concentration of IL -12,IL-4,IFN-γwithin cervical local immune microenvironment and cervix infected with HPV 16,58,to understand the prevalence of physical status of HPV 16/58 DNA into the host genome in cervical lesions of different grades and to detect the relation between the integrated state of virus and the progress of cervical lesions.Methods: Detecting 89 cases of cervicovaginal lavage fluid and 140 cytological specimens of the cervix which from patients having had HPV-DNA genotyping assays and coming from the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from 2012.8 to 2013.5.89 cases of cervicovaginal lavage fluid were divided into 58 cases of HPV16 (+) and 31 cases of HPV58(+).Cytokines IL-12, IL-4, IFN-γin the cervical microenvironment were detected by ELISA assay.140 cases of cervical exfoliated cells were divided into 106 cases of HPV16(+) and 34 cases of HPV58(+).Using qRT-PCR to quantify the copy number of E2 and E6 genes and analyze the physical status of HPV 16/58 DNA according to E2/E6.Results:①The level of IL-4 in HPV16(+) was significantly higher than that in HPV58(+)(P<0.05).The levels of IL-12 and IFN-γwere lower than that in HPV58(+)(P<0.05).②Significant differences of DNA state were found between the groups of HPV 16(+) and HPV58(+)(P<0.05)and the rate of HPV16 DNA integration was significantly larger than that of HPV 58 DNA.Conclusion:The infection of HPV16 and HPV58 not only can lead to reduction of IL-12,IFN-γand increasing of IL-4 in cervical local immune microenvironment but also lead to viral integration in cervical cells,resulting in cervical lesions and cervical cancer through the internal and external changes in cervical cells .HPV16 is more likely to cause cervical cancer tissue than 58.

AIM: To discuss the application of overlapping ratio to the fingerprints of plant and plant extract. METHODS: We took the HPLC fingerprints of green tea and tea polyphenols for decision procedure. RESULTS: Overlapping ratio could be applied to selecting representative samples for characteristic fingerprints of green tea and tea polyphenols,and could be used to deduce the raw material,process and producer of tea polyphenols.(CONCLUSION:) Overlapping ratio can be used to choose the suitable samples for establishing the characteristic fingerprint spectrum,and can supply references to relationship investigation among products,raw material and process.

Objective: To develop a HPLC method for simultaneous determination of catechins (EGC、DC、EGCG、EC、GCG、ECG) and caffeine in tea polyphenols and to quantify seven ingredients in twenty nine batches of tea polyphenols samples from thirteen producers. Methods: The study was achieved using a C 18 column with a methanol water 0.1% formic acid gradient elution system. Results: The peak resolutions of seven ingredients in mixed standards were all above 2; The resolutions in samples were all above 1.5 except EGCG; The average recoveries were 98.56%~100.14%. Conclusion: This method is accurate, stable, reproducible and suitable for quality control of tea polyphenols; the variations of contents are obvious among tea polyphenols samples from different even the same producers.

Objective To investigate the beneficial effects and possible mechanisms of intrathecal injection of dexmedetomidine (DEX) in protection of spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods Spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury was induced in rabbits by infrarenal aortic occlusion for 30 minutes.Twenty-four rabbits were randomly divided into four groups:sham group,I/R group,DEX group (1 μg/kg dexmedetomidine by intrathecal injection),DEX + ATIP group (1 μg/kg dexmedetomidine and 0.5 μg/kg atipamezole (ATIP) by intrathecal injection).Physiological indices were assessed and motor neurons in the ventral gray matter were counted by histological examination.The expression of total extracellular signal-related kinase (t-ERK),phospho-extracellular signal-related kinase (p-ERK),and caspase 3 were assessed by Western blotting and real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).The water content in spines was also measured.Results Intrathecal injection of dexmedetomidine minimized the neuromotor dysfunction and histopathological deficits(F =14.32,P < 0.05) and attenuated the influences of peroxidation at 24 hours after spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury.The physical indices during experiment were comparable among all groups.In addition,intrathecal injection of dexmedetomidine reduced the excessive expression of caspase 3 mediated by ERK signal pathway(F =15.45,P < 0.05).Conclusions Pre-emptive intrathecal injection of dexmedetomidine produced beneficial effects on spinal cord after spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury in a rabbit model of transient aortic occlusion.This beneficial effect was partly attributed to the inhibition of caspase 3 mediated by ERK signal pathway,which represents a potential therapeutic approach to mitigate spinal cord injury after aortic occlusion.
