This study was aimed to identify and distinguish Metacordyceps liangshanensis recorded by the Sichuan Province Traditional Chinese Medicine Standard from its adulterants and its relative species by combining ITS and COI barcode sequences in order to study the feasibility of this new method. After extracting DNA of 28 species of Cordyceps samples, DNA were amplified and sequenced. And then, ITS and COI sequences were received. Codon-Code Aligner V3.7.1 and Mega 5.0 were used to analyze the variable site and construct the N-J tree. The results showed that the minimum ITS inter-specific K-2P distance was relatively higher than the maximum intra-specific K-2P distance. The inter-specific sequence divergence between M. liangshanensis and its adulterants exhibited high while intra-specific sequence divergence exhibited low. And COI one was the same case. N-J tree of both ITS and COI indicated that same genus belonged together and each species belonged to relatively independent branch. It was concluded that based on the ITS and COI gene, the technology of DNA barcode can be an excellent identification of M. liangshanensis, its adulterants and its relative species. It provided technical support for the further research on species molecular identification and phylogenetics of Cordyceps .

OBJECTIVETo verify the pharmacological hypothesis of prescriptions by studying the targeted distribution of major components in stewed rhubarb in the rat model with acute pancreatitis (AP).
METHODNormal SD rats (control group, n = 5) and the AP model induced with intraperitoneal cerulein (model group, n = 5) were taken as the experimental objects. Rats of the two groups were orally administered with stewed rhubarb granules (20 g x kg(-1)). Their heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney and pancreas were collected two hours after the administration. Such constituents as emodin, chrysophanol, physcion, rhein and aloe-emodin and their concentrations in each tissue homogenate were detected by high performance liquid chromatography-mass-mass.
RESULTAloe-emodin and physcion in stewed rhubarb whose concentrations in liver and kidney of normal rats were higher than that in pancreatic tissues, while the distribution spectrums and concentrations of the remaining components in pancreatic tissues had no significant difference with that of other organs. The concentrations of emodin, aloe-emodin, rhein and chrysophanol in stewed rhubarb in pancreatic tissues of the AP model group were higher than that in other tissues and organs, while their concentrations in pancreatic, renal and splenic tissues were notably higher than that in the normal group.
CONCLUSIONIn the conditions of AP, effective components in stewed rhubarb show a targeted distribution feature in pancreas, which provides experimental basis for the pharmacological hypothesis of prescriptions.

Objective To determine whether the poking reduction and bone grafting technique with guide through bony tunnel can correct a Hill-Sachs lesion. Methods A total of 30 cadaveric humeri were equally divided into three groups, 10 cadaveric humeri per group. Hill-Sachs lesions were replicated with a osseous defect involving 10% (group A ) , 20% (group B ) and 30% (group C ) of the articular surface. All the bone defects in each group were measured and the poking reduction and bone grafting technique with guide through a bony tunnel was performed in group B and group C. The preoperative and postoperative transverse arc length, longitudinal are length, depth and volume of the osseous defects in group B and group C were compared by using paired t test. Results Before reduction, the transverse arc length of the bone defects was ( 10.9 ± 1.4 )mm in group B and ( 16.3 ± 2.3 ) mm in group C ; longitudinal arc length was ( 22.4 ± 2.4 ) mm in group B and ( 28.0 ± 2.2 ) mm in group C ;depth was (6.9±0.9) mm in group B and (11. 1 ±0.9) mm in group C; volume was (708.7±93.9) mm3 in group B and (1338.3 ± 185.6) mm3 in group C. After reduction, the transverse arc length of the bone defects was (5.1 ± 2.4 ) mm in group B and ( 7.6 ± 3.6 ) mm in group C ; longitudinal arc lengthwas (10.5 ±4.9) mm in group B and (12.3 ±5.3) mm in group C; depth was (0.3±0.1 ) mm in group B and (0.4 ±0.1 ) mm in group C; volume was (48.9 ± 16.1 )mm3 in group B and (70.3 ± 37.9) mm3 in group C. The comparison of all the parameters showed statistical difference (P <0. 01 ). Conclusion The poking reduction and bone grafting technique with guide through a bony tunnel can effectively correct the Hill-Sachs lesions with humeral head osseous defects involving 20% -30% of the articular surface.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effects of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) on the distribution of throat flora in children with bronchial asthma.
METHODSSixty healthy children were included in the study as the control group and 160 children with asthma in acute period before ICS therapy were chosen as the experimental group. The experimental group were treated with ICS therapy. In this group, 89 children were followed up for 3 months, 68 for 6 months and 60 for 12 months. The ICS in the study was budesonide with the trade name as Pulmicort. Swab from the pharynx was used, then inoculated in agar plate. The bacteria were isolated, the distribution and variation of the microbial population in pharyngeal portion were evaluated. The data collected were analyzed using SPSS12.0 software.
RESULTSBacteria could be detected in all samples collected from children with asthma in acute, untreated period, which were mainly non-β-hemolytic streptococcus and gram negative cocci bacteria. Gram negative bacilli, streptococcus pneumoniae and mycetes were less. There were no significant differences (χ(2) value were 4.7441, 7.8582 and 1.5583 respectively, Fisher exact value were 0.0699, 0.6398, 0.2433, 0.8580, 0.6616, 0.6339, and 0.8479 respectively, P > 0.05) among children with asthma in acute period, children with asthma treated with ICS after 3, 6 and 12 months and control group. Three strains of mycetes were detected in the experimental group, and one strain in children with asthma treated with ICS for 6 months group.
CONCLUSIONSThere were no significant changes in the distribution of throat flora between the control group and the experimental group. The throat microbiology did not show significant change. Inhaled corticosteroids had no obvious effect in throat flora in children with asthma after being used for a short term and for 12 months, which suggested that inhaled corticosteroids was safe in bronchial asthma treatment. Dynamic monitoring of throat flora while the inhaled corticosteroids are used is of clinical significance.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the complications of percutaneous kyphoplasty except bone leakge for the treatment of osteoporotic thoracolumbar vertebral compression fractures.
METHODSFrom October 2008 to October 2012,178 patients with 224 osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures were treated with percutaneous kyphoplasty under local anethsia. There were 72 males and 106 females,ranging in age from 58 to 92 years old,with an average of 75.3 years,including 93 thoracic vertebrae and 131 lumbar vertebrae. The complications except bone cement leakage were analyzed during operation and after operation.
RESULTSAll operations were successful and all patients were followed up from 12 to 60 months with an average of 26.2 months. No death was found. Bone cement leakage occurred in 27 cases, about 15.1% in 178 cases; and complications except bone cement leakage occurred in 15 cases. There was 1 case with cardiac arrest,was completely recovery by cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) immediately; and 1 case with temporary absence of breathing,was recovery after treatment. There were 3 cases with fall of blood pressure and slower of heart rate; 1 case with intestinal obstruction; 2 cases with local hematoma and 1 case with intercostal neuralgia. Vertebral body fractures of 2 cases were split by bone cement and the fractures of adjacent body occurred in 4 cases.
CONCLUSIONIt's uncommon complication except bone cement leakge in treatment of osteoporotic thoracolumbar vertebral compression fractures with percutaneous kyphoplasty. The complication of cardiopulmonary system is a high risk in surgery; and cytotoxicity of bone cement,nervous reflex,fat embolism and alteration of intravertebral pressure may be main reasons.

OBJECTIVESTo screen the hALR-interacting protein by phage-displayed technique and identify its biological activities.
METHODSThe specific phage clones that interacted with target protein hALR from a cDNA library of hepatocarcinoma cells were selected using the T7 phage-displayed technique. The acquired cDNA inserts were sequenced and analyzed by bioinformatic tools. The biological activities of the phage-displayed peptide affecting QGY hepatocarcinoma cells were studied using 3H-TdR method.
RESULTSThe cDNA inserts with 212 bp were acquired after 4 rounds of biopanning. They showed 100% homology with citron kinase. The phage-displayed peptide and the peptide combined with hALR affected QGY cells proliferation.
CONCLUSIONShALR-interacting peptide can be specifically screened by phage-displayed technique. Citron kinase that interacted with hALR potentially plays an important role in the proliferation of hepatocarcinoma cells.
