Objective To investigate the saponins from the Chinese materia medica Huluba (the seeds of Trigonella foenum-graecum L.). Methods To isolate and purify the single saponin by the column chromatography and dry column chromatography of silica gel H. The structural elucidation was carried on by spectroscopic evidence of (()~(13)C-NMR), FAB-MS, DEPT and the results of the fraction-hydrolysis of acquiring the secondary glucosides. Results The newly isolated saponin D was consisted by six molecules of sugar with diosgenin. The chemical structure of saponin D is: diosgenin-3-O-?-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1→3)-?-D-glucopyranosyl (1→4)-?-L-rhamnopyranosyl [(1→3)-?-L-rhamnopyranosyl] (1→4)-?-D-glucopyranosyl (1→4)-?-D-glucopyranoside. Conclusion Saponin D is a new one consisted of six molecules of su-(gar) with diosgenin.

Objective To investigate the expression of SEL1L and p63 protein in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and precarcinomacous lesion.Methods Immunohistochemical staining(EnVision method)was employed to detect the expression of SEL1L and p63 protein in 60 samples of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,32 samples of high grade esophageal intraepithelial neoplasia,13 samples of low grade esophageal intraepithelial neoplasia and 33 samples of normal esophageal mucosa.Results The positive rate of SEL1L protein expression was 61.5%in low grade intraepithelia neoplasia,90.6%in high grade intraepithelial neoplasia and 96.7%in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,significantly higher than that in normal esophageal mucosa(6.1%)(P0.05).Conclusion Both the expression of SEL1L and p63 protein increases steadily in the progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,which indicates that the two genes may play a role and cooperate with each other in the carcinogenesis.

AIM:To perform a new method for orbital implant and contracted socket through one time and its results. ·METHODS:Totally 114 patients 114 eyes, from January 2008 to June 2014, with contracted socket participated in this study. We incised the bulbar conjunctiva horizontally and excised scar tissue, then implanted the hydroxyapatite in the four extraocular muscles and tightly sutured the Tenon ' capsule. After that, we put the superior and inferior conjunctival petals backwards and sutured them to the Tenon ' s capsule. All the patients were divided into four groups according to the vertical diameter length of the conjunctival defect area:GroupⅠ:≤5mm; Group Ⅱ: 6-10mm; Group Ⅲ: 11-15mm; and Group Ⅳ: ≥16mm. These patients were followed up for 6mo to 3y to observe the conjunctival sac shaping and growth of conjunctiva. ·RESULTS:There were 64 cases in GroupⅠ, 31 cases in Group Ⅱ, 16 cases in Group Ⅲ and 3 cases in Group Ⅳ. All patients ' conjunctival defect was covered by new conjunctiva and scar tissue 4 to 6wk after surgeries. Ten cases had contracted socket; 2 cases had orbital implant exposure, requiring reoperation. Of the 114 cases, 8 had contracted socket and could use a smaller conformer, 106 could use a normal size conformer. ·CONCLUSION: When the conjunctival defect was ≤15mm, this new method can address the orbital implant and contracted socket at the same time. While it was ≥16mm, flap transplantation is necessary.

Objective To observe the effect of dexamethasone(Dex)on the proliferation and os- teogenic differentiation of human marrow stromal cells(MSCs)in vitro.Methods The primary human MSCs were isolated and cultured by Ficoll seperation culture in vitro.In subcultures,human MSCs were respectively treated with dexamethasone 10~(-9),10~(-8) and 10~(-7) mol/L.The proliferation of human MSCs was measured using MTF method;cytoplasmic alkaline phosphatase(ALP)activity was measured;the osteogenic marker osteopontin (OPN)mRNA were examined by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results The op- tical density values in cultures treated with dexamethasone 10~(-8) and 10~(-7) mol/L for 8 days were significantly lower than those in the controls(P<0.05).Treatment of cells with Dex for 12 days led to a significant increase in cytoplasmic ALP activity(P<0.05)in a dose-dependent manner.Dex induced OPN mRNA.Conclusion Dex inhibits the proliferation of human MSCs and dexamethasone 10~(-7) mol/L leads to a strong decrease in cell number.Dex induces human MSCs differentiate to osteoblastic cells.

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of adriamycin in combination with hyperthermia on apoptosis and bcl-2 expression in the chronic leukemic cell line K562/AO2 in vitro.Methods The working con- centration of adriamycin against K562/AO2 determined by using methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) assay was used to treat the chronic leukemic cell line K562/AO2 in vitro alone or in combination with hyperthermia induced using a hot water bath at 40,41 or 42℃.The inhibitory effect was evaluated by MTT assay.The apoptosis rates and bcl-2 ex- pression of K562/AO2 were determined by flow cytometry.Results The working concentration of adriamycin in the study was defined as its 50% inhibition concentration (IC50).A 60 min session of hyperthermia at 40℃,41℃or 42℃was associated with significant growth inhibition of the cell line K562/AO2.Adriamycin chemotherapy alone and with hyperthermia significantly inhibited the growth of K562/AO2.All treatments significantly increased apoptosis rates and down-regulated bcl-2 expression of the K562/AO2 cell line.Conclusion Adriamycin chemotherapy com- bined with 60 min sessions of hyperthermia showed significant suppression effect on K562/AO2 cell proliferation.The treatment can increase apoptosis rates and down-regulate bcl-2 expression.

AIM:To observe the structural basis of ocular motility abnormalities in patients with congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles type Ⅰ ( CFEOM Ⅰ) due to missense mutations in the developmental kinesin KIF21A using high - resolution magnetic resonance imaging ( MRI) .
METHODS: Totally 11 affected individuals reported KIF21A mutations were correlated with MRI studies demonstrating extraocular muscles ( EOMs ) size, location, contractility, and innervation. EOMs and the motor nerve in the orbits were imaged with T1 weighted in a triplanar scan using a dual-phased coils with 2. 0mm thick. Motor nerves were imaged at the brainstem using head coils and 3D-FIESTA with 0. 6-mm thick.
RESULTS: Patients with CFEOM Ⅰ exhibited different degrees of hypoplasia of oculomotor nerve, the abducens nerve and the trochlear nerve were also affected, of which 8 cases of orbital section could see the signal of abnormal nerve dominated by oculomotor nerve to lateral rectus. The both sides of six EOMS in all patients exhibited variable atrophy and abnormal bright internal signal on T1 imaging, particularly severe for the superior rectus and levator muscles.
CONCLUSION: High - resolution MRI can directly demonstrate pathology of motor nerves,affected EOMs, and ‘Pulley' hypoplasia caused by CFEOM Ⅰ due to mutations in KIF21A,and these findings suggest that the neuronal hypoplasia is the etiological factor of CFEOM.
