In order to investigate the influence of angiotensin II on hematopoietic system, CD34+ cells in cord blood were purified, and the effects of angiotensin II in combination with various cytokines on their growth and differentiation were studied by cell culture in vitro. It was found that angiotensin II in suspending medium could stimulate both BFU-E and CFU-GM expansion. The number of BFU-E and CFU-GM was increased with the increases of angiotensin II concentrations during a certain range. In addition, the expansion fold of CFU-GM was increased from 2.3 +/- 0.8 times to 7.8 +/- 2.3 times when angiotensin II was added in the presence of SCF+G-CSF+GM-CSF+IL3 cytokines mixture. Similarly, the expansion fold of BFU-E was increased from 3.1 +/- 1.8 times to 9. 2 +/- 2.3 times with angiotensin II in the presence of SCF+EPO+TPO+IL-3. In the semi-solid medium, angiotensin II could stimulate CFU-GM expansion but had no effect on the growth of BFU-E. In conclusion, angiotensin II had some stimulating effects on cord blood hematopoietic progenitors expansion in vitro in the presence of other cytokines.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between children interleukin-1 receptor antagonist gene(IL-1RN) polymorphisms and susceptibility to febrile seizures(FS).Methods Matching case-control study was carried out,blood samples from 52 patients with FS and 53 healthy children were collected.Genomic DNA was extracted and examined by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) amplification for judging IL-1RN genetype.Results Only Ⅰ/Ⅰ,Ⅰ/Ⅱ,Ⅱ/Ⅳ genetypes of IL-1RN were found in the surveyed Chinese population of Han nationality in Guangdong Province.No significant differences of these genotypes were observed in patients and controls.But the allele frequencise of Ⅰ,Ⅱand Ⅳ in patients were 95.2%,3.8% and 1.0%,respectively,while these frequencise in controls were 84.9%,10.4% and 4.7%,respectively.The allele frequency of IL-1RNⅠin patients was obviously higher than that in controls(P

AIM: To investigate the potential role of 14-3-3 tau in trophoblast cells on invasiveness. METHODS: 14-3-3 tau expression was detected in first-trimester villi, deciduas and human trophoblastic cell line (BeWo) by immunohistochemistry. Small interference RNA (siRNA) targeting 14-3-3 tau was transfected into BeWo cells. The effects of down-regulated 14-3-3 tau on invasion of human trophoblasts cell line BeWo were examined by matrigel invasion assay, and the transcription, translation of E-cadherin and snail were estimated by RT-PCR or Western blotting. U0126 was used to detect the extracellular-signal related kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) function on down-regulation of 14-3-3 tau induced cell invasion. RESULTS: 14-3-3 tau was detected in the invasive trophoblastic cells in the first trimester villi and that invaded to the deciduas. BeWo cells also expressed 14-3-3 tau. Down-regulation of 14-3-3 tau increased the invasive cell-number of BeWo, as well as the expression of snail, and inhibited E-cadherin. U0126 inhibited the enhanced invasiveness in these cells induced by the down-regulation of 14-3-3 tau. CONCLUSION: 14-3-3 tau may regulate the invasiveness of human trophoblastic cells through ERK1/2 signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the role of static posturography in the assessment of fatigue due to flight tasks.Methods:Thirtymale college students were asked to perform simulated flight tasks consecutively forfour hours.Meanwhile their statie posturography and tasks performance would be repeatedly measured during the task-load at end of every hour.Based on the changed significantly parameters,the static balance index would be built by principle component analysis.Then its correlation with task-load level would be further analyzed by curve estimation.Results:Static postural control declined significantly under effect of simulated flight tasks.With task load sustaining,static balance index increased significantly and correlated linearly with duration of task load (R2=0.949).Besides,there was quadratic relationship between the change of multi-tasks performance and duration of task load (R2=0.968).And correlation of multi-tasks performance with static standing balance level also had been proved to be quadratic (R2=0.976).Conclusions:Static posturography correlated linearly with flight task-load level,which could reflect fatigue level caused by task load.

Objective To explore the formation process of vacuum pressure differential of micro power negative pressure technology to facilitate its clinical application.MethodsThe formation of negative pressure differential and changes of negative pressure values in enclosure space were studied which was formed by liquid aspiration after the compressive polyvinyl alcohol foam material was enclosed.Micro power negative pressure technology was applied to the treatment of the right ear necrosis patient after focal cleaning,and the efficacy was observed.Results Medical adhesive film was raised gradually during the expansion of polyvinyl alcohol foam due to liquid aspiration,and then the enclosure space extended increasingly to form local vacuum negative pressure.The range of maximal negative pressure was between-110 and-200 Pa,and the mean maximal negative pressure value was-132.7 Pa.Micro power negative pressure technology behaved well in healing the wound.Conclusion Micro power negative pressure technology gains advantages in reliability and easy operation over other technologies and products,and may be a new choice for healing of refractory wounds.

Purpose:To evaluate the treatment results of induction chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy in patients with stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods:Fifty patients with stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ nasopharyngeal carcinoma were treated by induction chemotherapy followed by definitive radiation therapy (CT/RT group). This group was matched with a group of fifty patients with stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated with radiotherapy alone (RT group). Results: The 5 year loco regional control was 61.2% for the CT/RT Group and 68.7% for the RT Group; The 5 yera distant metastasis was 15.2% for the CT/RT group and 27.1% for the RT Group; The 5 year distant metastasis for the patients with stage N 2 and N 3 disease was 27.4% for the CT/RT Group and 43.8% for the RT Group respectively; The overall 5 year survival (OS) was 57.8% for the CT/RT group and 51.6% for the RT group( P =0 61); The 5 year OS of N 2 and N 3 patients was 60.6% for the CT/RT group and 26.3% for the RT group( P =0 033);The 5 year OS of T 3 and T 4 patients was 36.8% for the CT/RT group and 41.2% for the RT group ( P =0 80) respectively. There were no significant differences in the incidence of acute mucositis between the two groups during radiotherapy, the side effects in leukopenia, nausea, vomiting were higher in CT/RT group than in RT group. No Grade 3 or higher late complications were observed in both groups. Conclusions:Induction chemotherapy followed by definitive radiation therapy did not improve the 5 year survival and loco regional control for the stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ nasopharyngeal carcinoma, but reduced the distant metastasis for the stage N 2 and N 3 patients; The overall 5 year survival rate for the patients with N 2 and N 3 nasopharyngeal carcinoma was improved by induction chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy.
