BACKGROUND:Increasing evidence has demonstrated that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel (BMSC) transplantation can promote skin, liver and lung repair in animal models; andLeonurus sibiricus L. has the ability of promoting blood circulation and regulating menstruation.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the therapeutic effect of BMSC transplantation with leonurine on intrauterine adhesions (IUA) in rabbits and the relevant mechanism of action.
METHODS: After modeled using dual injury method, rabbit models of IUA were randomly divided into five groups: sham-operated group (sham), model group (IUA), BMSC transplantation group, leonurine treatment group and combined treatment group (BMSCs+leonurine). Rabbits in the sham group were only given normal saline rinsing after hysterotomy, while those in the latter three groups were correspondingly given intrauterine BMSC transplantation or/and intragastric administration of 4 mg/kg leonurine for 14 days. Morphological changes of the endometrium were observed using hematoxylin-eosin staining, and expression levels of transforming growth factor β protein, Smad3 protein and interferon-γ mRNA were detected using immunohistochemical staining and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the model group, the degree of IUA was al significantly improved in the other groups, especialy in the combined treatment group. Moreover, BMSC transplantation, leonurine treatment and their combined use al could inhibit IUA-induced increase of transforming growth factorβ and Smad3 protein expression and IUA-induced decrease of interferon-γ mRNA level. Importantly, al these alternations were much more pronounced in the combined treatment group. Our results show that the combined use of BMSC transplantation and leonurine treatment can exert a synergistic effect in the improvement of IUA through the transforming growth factor β/Smad3 pathway.

AIM: To affirm marker peaks for the fingerprint chromatography of Shengmai Injection. METHODS: LC-MS/MS method was used, with a Waters symmetryshield TM RP_ 18 column(4.6 mm?250 mm; 5.0 ?m), acetonitrile-water as a mobile phase, The detection wavelength was at 203 nm. Ion trap mass spectrum. RESULTS: Affirming marker peaks for fingerprint chromatography of Shengmai Injection and 10 marker peaks were affirmed. CONCLUSION: The method can affirm marker peaks for the fingerprint chromatography of Shengmai Injection. It is simple, accurate, and has practicality.

AIM To analyze the dynamic changes of five constituents in Ligustri lucidi Fructus at five picking time (August,September,October,November,December).METHODS The HPLC analysis of Ligustri lucidi Fructus ethanol extract was performed on a 25 ℃ thermostatic Aglient Zorbax SB-C1s column (4.6 mm ×250 mm,5 μm),with the mobile phase comprising of acetonitrile-0.1％ phosphoric acid flowing at 1 mL/min in a gradient elution manner,and the detection wavelength was set at 224 nm.RESULTS Salidroside,tyrosol,luteolin-7-O-glucoside,ligustroflavone and specnuezhenide showed good linear relationships within their own ranges (r ＞0.999 0),whose average recoveries were 99.56％-100.30％ with the RSDs of 0.89％-1.23％.The contents of various constituents (except for tyrosol) were the highest in samples picked up in September,followed by those picked up in October.CONCLUSION The suitable picking time of Ligustri lucidi Fructus is September and October.

Objective To analyse the characteristics of fundus fluorescein angiography(FFA)of iatrogenic retinal vascular occlu- sion.Design Retrospective case series.Participants 9 eyes of 9 patients with iatrogenic retinal vascular occlusion and 16 eyes of 16 patients with non-iatrogenic retinal vascular occlusion in Beijing Tongren Hospital in 2002-2005.Methods All patients were examined with FFA.The difference of circulation time of retinal vessels both in iatrogenic and non-iatrogenic retinal vascular occlusion patients was compared.Main Outcome Measures The starting perfusion time and the finishing time of retinal artery or vein.Results In pa- tients with iatrogenic(4 cases)and non-iatrogenic(12 cases)central retinal artery occlusion,the finishing perfusion time was separately 79.33?87.04s and 19.20?4.61s; the finishing time of retinal vein was separately 128.07?149.11s and 33.16?15.34s.In iatrogenic(4 cas- es)and non-iatrogenic(4 cases)central retinal artery together with central retinal vein occlusion patients,the finishing perfusion time of retinal artery was separately 211.67?371.26s and 30.07?17.26s;the finishing perfusion time of retinal vein was 232.43?358.52s and 48. 81?11.64s.One patient was ocular artery occlusion.FFA showed that choroidal background fluorescence and central artery were perfused slowly,the vascular fluorescence perfusion was interrupted before it came out of optic disk and the perfusion interruption continued until late stage with extensive peripheral non-perfusion areas.Conclusion The perfusion time of the retinal artery and vein in iatrogenic reti- nal vascular occlusion may be much longer than that in non-iatrogenic retinal vascular occlusion.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between the presence of a crown (CR) or a proximal restoration (PR) and furcation involvement (FI) on molars. Methods: Data were collected from 237 teeth in 44 patients who had restored and non-restored molars with or without FI.The clinical examinations were conducted on the molars including CR,PR,FI, mobility(MO), endodontic treatment(EN) and probe of periodontal attachment level(PAL). Results: Molars with CR or PR had a significantly highter percentage of FI (P0.05) when compared to molars without restorations. Conclusion: The molars with crowns or restorations involving the proximal tooth surfaces have a highter prevalence of FI and more periodontal attachment lose than molars without restorations.

Objective:To compare the difference and correlation of HPLC and enzyme-multiplied immunoassay test( EMIT) for the determination of CsA in human whole blood. Methods:A total of 119 clinical samples at different concentrations of CsA were collected and respectively determined by HPLC and EMIT. The difference and correlation of the two determination methods were investigated. Results:There was significant difference in the blood concentrations of CsA determined by HPLC and EMIT(P<0. 05). CsA concen-tration determined by EMIT was 26. 2 ng·ml-1 higher than that determined by HPLC, and 95% CI was (14. 6-37. 7) ng·ml-1 . A satisfactory correlation was achieved between the two methods(r=0. 997 4). Conclusion:There is statistically significant difference in the CsA concentration in whole blood respectively determined by EMIT and HPLC. Attention should be paid to CsA monitoring by E-MIT and HPLC, and relevant adjustment should be carried out.

Objective To design two-point two-line vein pricking for avoiding pain for patients and blood osmosis out of the vein caused by the high-pressure and fast-speed of the current high-pressure injector.Methods 19G butterfly-wing vein transfusion needle in the length of 19mm was used.The first point was needled with the needle tip under the skin and the first needling line was above and parallel the blood vessel in the length of 10-12mm.The second point was needled,with the second needle tip and needle line in the blood vessel,and the length of needling is 7-9mm.Results 100 persons were subjected.All the contrast medium and the physiologic saline were injected in vein in 98 persons,among which 2 had little hard tubercle in injecting area.Conclusion The two-point two-line vein pricking is safe for high pressure injector injecting in vein,and can prevent blood osmosis out of the vein.
