1.N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor NR2B subunit and neuronal apoptosis
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2010;18(4):306-310
Neuronal apoptosis is one of the important forms of neuronal death in ischemic stroke.N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-mediated excitatory amino acid toxicity plays an important role in neuronal apoptosis. It is the initiator and executor of apoptosis in neuronal cells. NR2B is the major regulatory subunit of this receptor, its transmembrane segment M2 is a reflexed membrane loop region facing cytoplast toward intramembrane, forming the inner wall of ion channel, which determines the permeability of the NMDA receptor ion channel to calcium. Glutamate mediates cell injury mainly through calcium overload, therefore, NR2B subunit plays a vital role in the neuronal apoptosis in ischemic stroke.
2.The roles of Musashil and Notch signaling pathways in neurogenesis after cerebral ischemia
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2011;19(5):397-400
Musashil is an evolutionarily conserved RNA binding protein. It plays an important role in the aspects of maintaining stem cell state, differentiation and tumorigenesis. Notch signal pathway plays an important role in the proliferation of neural stem cells after cerebral ischemia. This article briefly introduces the structure and molecular characteristics of Musashil and Notch, and reviews the interaction in the neurogenesis of Musashil and Notch signaling pathway after cerebral ischemic reperfusion.
3.Progress in treatment of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 1987;0(02):-
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease(ADPKD),a common inherited disease,is characterized by massive enlargement of fluid-filled renal cysts.Progressively enlarging cysts compromise normal renal parenchyma,reduce renal function and lead to renal failure.Up to now,the treatment options for ADPKD have been limited to renal replacement therapy by dialysis or by transplantation for patients with end-stage renal failure.Inhibition of cyst fluid secretion,suppression of cyst epithelial cell growth and prevention of renal failure are new approaches to treat PKD.

patients with chronic alcoholic polyneuropathy (CAPN ) were described. They were all male with age rainging from 33 to 70 years (mean age 53. 7). The cardinal symptoms are. pain and numbness in the extremities, stocking and glove decreased of pain and temperature sense in the legs and arms, the loss of vibration sense and muscule atrophy. The motion nerve conducting velocity (MCV) and sensory nerve conduction velocity (SCV) all are slowed in varying degrees. Superficial peroneal nerve biopsy identified myelin degeneration of myelinated nerve fibers, axonal degeneration or disappearance, degeneration of Schwann cell and also involved perineurium. The change was due to avitaminosis for long-term drinking.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of early diabetic nephrosis treated with Danhong injection and Losar- tan Potassium Tablets.Methods 60 patients were randomly divided into treatment group (n=30) and control group (n=30).Both grougs take orally medicine or insulin for normal blood sugar,the control group were treated with con- ventional treatment.On the basis of conventional treatment,the treatment group were treated with Danhong injection and Losartan Potassium.Results After treated for 28 days,the UAER,BUN,SCr and hemorheology were significantly improved in the treatment group than in the control group (P

Objective To observe the effects of recombinant plasmid of rat's interstitial collagenase on experimental liver fibrosis. Methods We constructed the recombinant plasmid of rat's interstitial collagenase fused Flag peptide which can be expressed in eucaryotic cells. After bound to galactose terminal glyco poly L lysine(G PLL), we transferred the recombinant plasmid to the rat's fibrotic liver in vivo by intravenous injection, then observed the effects of the plasmid on the fibrotic liver by RT PCR, immunohistochemistry and the observation of pathology. Results The recombinant plasmid of interstitial collagenase could be expressed in rat liver, the expression of the plasmid could increase the degradation of type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ collagen in the rat's fibrotic liver compared with fibrotic modal group ( P 0.05). Conclusion The recombinant plasmid of interstitial collagenase have some effects on liver fibrosis, but this effects is limited.

Objective To certify the linear range of WBC measured by CD3700.Methods Use the white stratum of blood after centrifugation.Then,the high value specimens were diluted with saline to get a series of samples with different concentrations.Every specimen was measured twice in order to keep the sequence of specimens randomly.The perform outlier test,polynomial regression analysis,and the random error estimation were carried out.Results There was no outlier in the results.It was demonstrated by polynomial regression to be linear from(0~219)?109 L-1.The random error was within the allowable limit of 1/4CLIA'88(3.75%).Conclusion The linear range of WBC measured by CD3700 is just like that of the manufacturer claims.

Objective To validate the biology reference interval of the Dartial biochemistry test items and provide accurate diagnosis basis for the clinic.Methods According to NCCLS C28-A2 recommendation method,two biochemistry analyzers'performance was validated.20 healthy persons for the asexual biological difference project and female group as well as male group (each group consist of 20 persons)for the sex biology difference project were recruited according to the laboratory SOP.If the validation had doubt,other two groups were need.The sera from these individuals were examined by the full-automatic ADVIA 1650 biochemistry analysis system.Results Two full-automatic ADVIA 1650 biochemistry analyzes conformed to the requirements.In 16 test items participating in this investigation.the analysis showed more than 5%results fell outside the biology reference interval for GGT and HDL-C,whereas 95% results fell in the biology reference interval for TP.All other results fell in the biology reference interval.Conclusions This validation indicats that except GGT and HDL-C,the biology reference intervals which are currently being used are suitable for our laboratory.This verification is persuasive and calpable of finding the deviation of biology reference interval.Setting up verification system warrants further generalization.

The efectienes of acpuncture for smoking cessation was systematically evaluated in this paper. By using computer retrieval in Chinese national knowledge infrastructure (CNKI), WANFANG database, VIP database, PubMed, ScienceDirect and Springer, the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) regarding acupuncture for smoking cessation from January of 1983 to December of 2013 were collected; by using Table of Standardized Report Factors for Acupuncture RCTs, each inclusive RCT was evaluated; and by using RevMan 5. 2 software, the Meta-analysis was performed. Totally 24 RCTs were included, involving 3084 cases of smoking. The result of literature quality assessment showed that the average score was 25. 71 points without low-quality RCT which had a score of less than 16 points. The Meta-analysis showed that acupuncture could significantly increase the short-time abstinence rate [RR=1. 48, 95% CI (1. 18,1. 84), Z=3. 47, P<0. 0005] and number of cigarettes smoked daily [RR=4. 35, 95% CI (2. 03, 6. 66), Z=3. 68, P<0. 001] and FTND [RR=2. 37, 95% CI (1. 88, 2. 86), Z= 9. 44, P<0. 00001], however, it could not increase the long-time abstinence rate [RR=1. 40, 95% Cl (0. 90, 2.17), Z=1. 49, P>0. 05]. Compared with other treatment, acupuncture has positive advantages on short-time abstinence rate, however, its effect on long-time abstinence rate needs to be verified by high-quality, large-sample and multi-center RCT in the future.
