Crude extracts of soybean (SBA) was prepared by steeping of the bean in normal saline and precipitating with ammonium sulfate. This extract was used to fractionate spleen hematopoietec cells and immunogenic cells. Groups of mice received irradiation of 850 rads. The survival rate of control group was 1/20. while that of mice in which SBA fractionated allogeneic splenic cells were transplanted was 13/19. and transplantation of non-fractionated splenic cells only yielded a survival of 4/20 by the end of 30 days. The mean survival time of animals receiving spleen cell agglutinated by SBA was 27.0?7.5 days. that of hemogenous spleen cell 21.6?7.5 days. and the control 9.2?6.2 days.In vitro, the spleen cells agglutinated once by SBA could eliminate 82.2% of T cells, and those agglutinated twice by SBA could eliminate 93.1% of T cells. The cytotoxic index was greatly reduced after two agglutinations by SBA. Using agar diffusion chamber method, the production rate of colonies of granulopoietic stem cells among spleen cells was determined. It was found that CFU-C/105 of the SBA agglutinated fraction of spleen cell was enhanced 2.8-fold over that of non-agglutinated fraction.Our preliminary result demonstrated that crude SBA can fractionate hematopoietic cells, which in turn became capable of eliminating immunogenic cells and raise the survival rate of irradiated mice, as efficiently as pure SBA.

BACKGROUND:Clinical treatment of epicondyle fractures and intercondylar comminuted fractures is quite tricky due to instability and spread to the articular surface. Common complications contained bone delayed union, nonunion, broken nails and broken boards. Internal fixation for fractures is various, but reasonable choice for clinical fixation plays a decisive role for repair of fractures.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the repair effects of various fixation methods on femoral condyle fracture from different aspects such as fracture type, bone healing, functional recovery and biomechanics.
METHODS:First author searched PubMed database and China National Knowledge Infrastructure for articles about various fixation methods in repair of femoral condyle fracture published from January 2000 to April 2014. Key words were“femoral condyle fracture, internal fixation, biomechanics, load-displacement, axial stiffness, horizontal shear stiffness”. Total y 142 articles were retrieved, but 39 articles met the inclusion criteria.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Femoral condyle fracture caused the damage to normal anatomic structure of knee join, changed normal anatomical axis and the mechanical axis of knee joint. Therefore, anatomic reduction and rigid internal fixation are necessary. During treatment, the advantages and disadvantages of various fixation methods should be known. It is necessary to ful y evaluate the type of intercondylar fractures of the femoral condyle and soft tissue injury. According to biological characteristics of the human body and mechanical property, internal fixation device should be reasonably used. Individual treatment programs should be provided. Thus, the occurrence of postoperative complications should be reduced utmostly, resulting in a satisfactory repair outcome.

Objective To evaluate the protective effect of genistein on psoralens plus ultraviolet A (PUVA)-induced photoaging in human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) in vitro.Methods Dermal fibroblasts were isolated from the foreskin of a healthy 5-year-old boy,and subjected to primary culture.After 5-8 passages of subculture,the fibroblasts were collected and used in the following experiment.To determine the optimal concentration of genistein,methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was conducted to detect the proliferation of fibroblasts pretreated with 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) and various concentrations (0-20 μg/ml) of genistein for 24 hours followed by UVA irradiation.Then,the fibroblasts were divided into 3 groups:normal control group receiving no treatment,photoaging group incubated with 8-MOP for 24 hours followed by UVA irradiation,and genistein group incubated with both 8-MOP and genistein at the optimal concentration for 24 hours followed by UVA irradiation.After additional culture,invert microscopy was carried out to observe the morphology of fibroblasts,enzyme histochemistry to assess senescent cells by using SA-β-Gal kit,flow cytometry to determine the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS),real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR to detect the matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) expression.One-way analysis of variance was conducted to assess the differences in these parameters among these groups.Results At 24 hours after UVA irradiation,the percentage of fibroblasts positive for SA-β-galactosidase was (0.67 ± 0.58)％,(96.67 ± 1.53)％ and (51.67 ± 2.08)％ in the normal control group,photoaging group and genistein group respectively,with significant differences among these groups (P ＜ 0.01).The level of ROS in the photoaging group and genistein group was (0.88 ± 0.24) and (0.62 ± 0.02) fold higher than that in the control group(both P ＜ 0.01).Moreover,the MMP-1 expression level in the photoaging group and genistein group was 10 times and 6 times that in the control group,respectively,with significant differences among the 3 groups (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion In vitro,genistein can protect against PUVA-induced photoaging in human dermal fibroblasts to some extent.
