Dynamic color is an important carrier that takes information in some special occupations. However, up to the present, there are no available and objective tests to evaluate dynamic color processing. To investigate the characteristics of dynamic color processing, we adopted two patterns of visual stimulus called "onset-offset" which reflected static color stimuli and "sustained moving" without abrupt mode which reflected dynamic color stimuli to evoke event-related brain potentials (ERPs) in primary color amblyopia patients (abnormal group) and subjects with normal color recognition ability (normal group). ERPs were recorded by Neuroscan system. The results showed that in the normal group, ERPs in response to the dynamic red stimulus showed frontal positive amplitudes with a latency of about 180 ms, a negative peak at about 240 ms and a peak latency of the late positive potential (LPP) in a time window between 290 and 580 ms. In the abnormal group, ERPs in response to the dynamic red stimulus were fully lost and characterized by vanished amplitudes between 0 and 800 ms. No significant difference was noted in ERPs in response to the dynamic green and blue stimulus between the two groups (P>0.05). ERPs of the two groups in response to the static red, green and blue stimulus were not much different, showing a transient negative peak at about 170 ms and a peak latency of LPP in a time window between 350 and 650 ms. Our results first revealed that some subjects who were not identified as color blindness under static color recognition could not completely apperceive a sort of dynamic red stimulus by ERPs, which was called "dynamic red blindness". Furthermore, these results also indicated that low-frequency ERPs induced by "sustained moving" may be a good and new method to test dynamic color perception competence.

Objective To evaluate blood flow structure within left ventricle,quantify the variation of the flow at infarct segments,and assess the impact of myocardial infarction.Methods Twenty-eight patients with chronic myocardial infarction(CMI)and 30 healthy controls were involved.The flow vector images on the section plane of the flow within the left ventricle were acquired by vector flow mapping(VFM).Timeflow(T-F)curve and all other peak systolic and diastolic flow curve include normal velocity profile,parallel velocity profile,vector profile were analyzed by DSA-RSI program.Results Ventricular ejction peak S,rapid ventricular filling peak E and atrial systole peak A were relatively lower in CMI group at infarct segment than normal control group,the time duration from bottom to peak was relatively longer in CMI group.Normal velocity profile,parallel velocity profile,vector profile,flow profile at peak S and E were lower in CMI group than normal group.Conclusions The velocity of CMI group was lower and the time to peak was longer than that of control group.VFM is a new noninvasive and clinically useful parameter for the evaluation of regional left ventricular segment flow dynamics.

When Playmonas cardiformis is exposed to different ZnSO4 concentration, its growth rate decreases gradually with the increase of ZnSO4 concentration which is more than 1 mmol?L~-1. More than 8 mmol?L~-1 ZnSO4 can lead to the death of playmonas subcordi- formis. But the production of MT-like increases with the increase of ZnSO4 concentration by AAS determination. The effect of indution is remarkable. The production of MT-like reaches 2. 1ing per gram wet weight when the concentration of ZnSO4 is 1 mmol?L~-1.

BACKGROUND:Repair of extrahepatic biliary tract injury is a difficult problem in the abdominal surgery. Tissue-engineered extrahepatic biliary tract is an ideal selection for this problem. Construction of tissue-engineered extrahepatic biliary tract with excelent performance is a key to related studies. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the biocompatibility of bile duct endothelial cels differentiated by porcine bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels with electrospun nanofibers. METHODS:Porcine bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels were induced toward biliary tract endothelial cels, which were then identified by morphology and RT-PCR. Polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) nanofiber membranes were prepared by electrospinning. The morphology was determined by scanning electron microscopy and the short-term (2-week)in vitro degradation rate was determined. Adhesion and proliferation of biliary tract endothelial cels on the nanofiber surface was analyzed by calculating the cel adhesion rate and MTT assay, respectively. Cel growth, morphology and distribution on the material surface were observed by fluorescence staining and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: After 4 weeks of directed differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem celsin vitro, cels showed typical morphology of dendritic bile duct endothelial cels and had the expression of CK19. Scanning electron micrographs showed that electrospun materials were continuous nanofibers with diameters between 200 and 500 nm. No significant degradation of the PLGA nanofibers was observed within 2 weeks. Based on the measured cel adhesion rate, MTT assay, fluorescence staining, and scanning electron microscopy, the differentiated cels possessed a good proliferative capacity on PLGA nanofibers. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels differentiated into bile duct endothelial cels in vitro. Materials prepared by the electrospinning method had a nanofiber structure, which did not significantly degrade within 2 weeks. Differentiated cels exhibit good biocompatibility with the nanofibers.

Objective To observe the effect of autophagy on paclitaxel-induced CaSki cell death through the regulation of the expression of autophagy gene Beclin1, and to explore the interaction and relationship between autophagy and apoptosis. Methods Eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1-Beclin1 and RNA interference vector pSUPER-Beclin1 were transfected into human cervical cancer CaSki cells in vitro and screened for stable expression cell lines. The formation of autophagic vacuoles was observed with an electronic microscope. The expression of Beclin1 and LC3 was measured by Western blot. After being treated with paclitaxel, the change of cell proliferation was assessed by MTT assay, the percentage of apoptotic cells and autophagic cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. Results A lot of autophagic vacuoles were observed in pcDNA3.1-Beclin1 cells by electronic microscopy. Beclin1 and LC3 protein expression was up-regulated in CaSki cells transfected with pcDNA3.1-Beclin1, and was inhibited in cells transfected with pSUPER-Beclin1. MTT assay revealed the survival rate of CaSki cells was significantly decreased after being transfected with pcDNA3.1-Beclin1. After being treated with paclitaxel, the percentages of apoptotic cells and autophagic cells were both increased in pcDNA3.1-Beclin1 group compared with that of the blank control group especially the increase of apoptosis was particularly evident. Conclusion Autophagy and apoptosis have different roles in the process of paclitaxel-induced cervical cancer CaSki cell line death. Overexpression of Beclin1 in CaSki cells may enhance the apoptosis induced by paclitaxel.
