mRNA and protein expression of interleukin 1? converting enzyme (ICE) were determined with RF PCR and immunohisto chemistry in brain tissue after complete ischemia followed by reperfusion of the forebrain of gerbil.The effect of radix salviae miltorrhizae was also studied. It was found that increased expression of ICEmRNA was induced during the 4 days after ischemia and reperfusion. Meanwhile, the increases in ICE positive reactivity were observed in glial cells in the regions of CA1 and cortex 1～4 days after ischemia and reperfusion, but the ICE positive reaction was inhibited under the effect of radix salviae miltiorrhizae(P

Objective To evaluation the diagnostic value of echocardiography in mechanical prosthesis valve dysfunction(MPVD).Methods Fifty-two patients who underwent reoperation due to MPVD were included,and the preoperative,introperative and postoperative results of echocardiography was compared with the results of surgery or pathologic diagnosis.Results The etiology of MPVD based on cardiac surgery was thrombus in 12,fibrous tissue hyperplasia in 23,thrombus and fibrous tissue hyperplasia in 16,lost of mechanical disc in 1.The types of MPVD diagnosed by echocardiography were stenosis in 29,regurgitation in 2,stenosis and regrigitation in 12,intermittent obstruction in 8,and total obstruction in 1.Successful assessment of prosthetic disc by transthoracic echocardiography was 78.4％ and can be improved to 96.1 ％ when combined with transesophageal echocardiography.Complementary message by transesophageal echocardiography were provided in 10 patients and corrective message in 1 patient.No recurrent MPVD was find during the follow-up.Conclusions Echocardiography can be used as the frist choice for the evaluation of the MPVD and can make precise assessment of the abnormal hemodynamic change and state of motion of the valve.

The curriculum system of Proteomics was analyzed based on the teaching practice,the characteristics of ability training and gradation teaching were summarized and the prospect of curriculum optimization was proposed.These measures were conceived to enrich the course content and teaching methods for Proteomics course.

Objective To evaluate the possible association among serum folate,polymorphisms related reduced folate carrier gene (RFC-1) AS0G,methionine synthase reductase gene (MTRR) A66G,and cervical cancer,and to provide clues for the etiology of cervical cancer.Methods Based on a hospital-based case-control study,107 cases diagnosed as cervical cancer pathematologically and 107 controls with hysteromyoma,were selected by frequency,matched with age and habitation.Serum folate concentration was detected by RIA and polymorphism RFC-1 A80G and MTRR A66G was examed by RFLP-PCR.Results Serum folate concentration in patient group [(1.86±0.60) ng/rml] was significantly lower than that in control group [(2.30 ± 1.14) ng/ml],and risk of cervical cancer increased with the decreased serum folate levels (x2trend =12.57,P =0.001).Risks to catch cervical cancer for women with RFC-1 80 GG were 2.42 times (95 ％ CI 1.01-5.81) as much as for those with RFC-1 80 AA,and 1.65 times (95 ％ CI 0.77-3.53) for those with RFC-1 80 AA and RFC-1 80 AG,risks to catch cervical cancer for women with MTRR 66 GG were 1.35 times (95 ％ CI 0.40-4.56) as much as for those with MTRR 66 AA and 1.26 times (95 ％ CI 0.38-4.16) for those with RFC-1 80 AA and RFC-1 80 AG.Conclusion Serum folate deficiency to a certain degree can increase the risk of cervical cancer.RFC-1 A80G mutation may be a risk factor for cervical cancer and homozygous (GG) gene may increase the susceptibility of cervical cancer.MTRR A66G gene mutation may have nothing to do with cervical cancer.

Objective To observe the effect of sedative drugs applied on uncooperative children in CT examination. Methods 204 samples were divided into groups of baby, infant and preschool children. 20 minutes before CT scan, chloral hydrate and diazepam were taken by those uncooperative children seperately. Drug dosage was calculated according to body weight (kg). Results The effective rate of chloral hydrate were 96.8%(30 cases) in baby group,54.2%(13 cases) in infant group and 53.9%(21eases) in preschool children group, while that of diazepam were 100%(9 cases), 82.6%(19 cases) and 87.2%(68 cases) respectively.Conclusion When approriate sedative drugs were taken by uncooperative children, satisfactory scanning images can be obtained in CT examination

Objective: To explore the clinical, pathological and echocardiographic characteristics of rare primary non-mucinous cardiac tumor (PNCT) and to investigate the diagnostic value of echocardiography in benign and malignant PNCT with various pathological classiifcations. Methods: We retrospectively studied 32 PNCT patients including 21 benign and 11 malignant patients treated in our hospital from 2003-01 to 2013-02. There were 23 male and 9 female from 0.5 to 66 (36.92 ± 20.17) years of age. We analyzed the clinical information of echocardiography, CT, MRI and operation, and the ifndings were conifrmed by pathology. Results: Statistic analysis presented that there were more male PNCT patients than female, the ratio of male/female in benign patients was 16/5, in malignant patients was 7/4, P<0.05, the age was similar between 2 groups, (38.06 ± 21.68) years vs (35.72 ± 13.55) years,P>0.05, and either infant or adult could suffer from PNCT. Benign PNCT was more in left heart and malignant PNCT was more in right heart. Compared with benign PNCT, malignant lesions were usually no base, with irregular shape, pericardial effusion and surrounding tissue adhesion. Conclusion: Echocardiography was sensitive for diagnosing the patients with PNCT, it could preliminarily identify benign and malignant lesions with different ultrasonographic manifestation.

Objective To investigate the expression of gene Fmr1 in rats cortex, hippocampus and hypothalamus areas after the rapid eyes movement ( REM ) sleep deprivation .Methods Using the modified multiple platform method (MMPM), 126 rats were randomly and averagely divided into three groups , the normal control group ( CC), the environmental control group (TC) and the sleep deprivation group (SD).Each group was detected on day 1, day 2, day 3, day 5, day 7, and day 9, and the sample tissues were extracted from 7 rats at each time point.Immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR were operated to analysis the expression of gene Fmr 1.Results The expressions of gene Fmr1 were increased gradually in the cortex and thalamus of the SD group after 3 days ( P <0.05 ) , and the expressions in the CC and TC groups had no significant difference (P >0.05).The expressions of gene Fmr1 were decreased gradually in hippocampus for SD after 3 days ( P <0.05 ) , and that in the CC and TC groups had no significant difference ( P >0.05 ) . Conclusion The expressions of gene Fmr 1 were increased gradually in the cortex and thalamus but decreased in the hippocampus in the SD group after 3 days.

AIM: To design,prepare and screen out functional small interfering RNA(siRNA) for specifically silencing proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) gene expression and effectively inhibiting cell proliferation on human hepatoma cell line SMMC-7721,human gastric carcinoma cell line SGC-7901 and human colorectal carcinoma cell line Caco2.METHODS: PCNA siRNA was designed based on previous studies about design guidelines and synthesized in vitro by T7 Mega short script reaction kit according to the manufacturer's instructions.After purification,the integrities of siRNA were identified through 19% denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis,and the concentrations of the generated siRNA were measured by testing the absorbance at 260 nm using a spectrophotometer.Four synthesized double-strand siRNA were transfected into three types of carcinoma cell lines by LipofectamineTM2000 reagent,respectively.WST-8 assay was employed to examine the proliferative inhibitions of these three cell lines.The subsequent alterations on PCNA mRNA and protein levels were determined by semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and immunocytochemistry,respectively.RESULTS: 3 sequences,No.2,No.3 and No.4 PCNA siRNA showed effective inhibitions on tumor cells among the 4 candidate siRNA,and a single dose of 50 nmol/L of No.2,No.4 PCNA siRNA showed the most effective inhibitory rates as more than 62% at 48 h after transfection.50 nmol/L of No.2 and No.4 PCNA siRNA transfection caused 72% decrease of PCNA mRNA level and almost completely loss of the protein in human Caco2 cells.CONCLUSION: No.2 and No.4 PCNA siRNA have been screened out in this study,which show the capability to effectively down-regulated PCNA expression and significantly inhibit the proliferation of carcinoma cells.The optimal concentration is 50 nmol/L and satisfactory effects are achieved 48 h after transfection in vitro.
