Objective To investigate the effects of dexamethasone on the airway development and vasculogenesis in cultured human fetal lung exposed to hyperoxia.Methods Human fetal lung at the pseudoglandular stage of development were cultured either in normoxia(21%O2,5%CO2)or hyperoxia(95%O2,5% CO2)for 72 hours.Dexamethasone was added into the culture medium at the concentration of 10-6 mol/L.Whereas ethanol at the same concentration was as control.Harvested tissue wss stained for pancytokeratin to I dentify epithelial cells.CD31 aS a specific antibody of endothelial cell.The effects of lung morphometry were analyzed using computer-assisted image analysis software to ealeuhte the thickness of airways,surface area occupied by airways and the distance of vessels to the nearest airway as well as the surface area of blood vessels.Results The lung architecture remained largely unchanged in normoxia for 72 hours culture,whereas hyperoxic culture of lungs resulted in significant dilation of airways and thinning of epithelium.The surface area occopied by airways increased significantly(P＜0.05).The blood vessels in interstium were more close to the airway epithelium in the hyperoxic lung(50 μm)as compared with normoxia group.Meanwhile,the proportion of the blood wessels in interstium of hyperoxia group(4.0%)Was higher than those of normoxia group (4.2%)and hyperoxia with dexamethasone(5.4%)(P＜0.05).Dexamethasone has the protective effect on lungs exposed tO hyperoxia.Conclusion Our resulta showed that hyperoxia resulted in the simple airways and the decreased bkxxl vessel density in interstitium of cultared human fetal lung.Dexamethasone has protective effect on fetal lungs exposed to hyperoxia and can promote lung mature.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of heat-sensitive moxibustion plus medications on senile osteoporosis (SOP), and to explore the related mechanisms. Methods: A total of 70 elderly participants with osteoporosis were randomly divided into an observation group and control group, with 35 cases in each group. The control group was treated with conventional drugs, and the observation group was treated with heat-sensitive moxibustion on the basis of the conventional drugs. Both groups were treated for 3 months. Before and after treatment, assessed the visual analog scale (VAS) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) scores, determined the bone mineral density of the participants' lumbar spine (L2-L4) and left femoral neck, and detected the participants' serum bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) levels. Results: After treatment, the VAS scores of both groups were lower than before treatment (both P<0.05), and the VAS score of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the bone mineral density values of the lumbar spine and left femoral neck in both groups were significantly higher than before treatment (both P<0.05), and the bone mineral density values of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the ODI scores of the two groups were lower than those before treatment (both P<0.05), and the ODI score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the serum BMP-2 and OPG levels in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (both P<0.05). Conclusion: Heat-sensitive moxibustion plus medications for SOP can significantly relieve patients' pain, improve dysfunction, and increase bone density, which may be related to the improvement of the serum BMP-2 and OPG levels.

Objective To explore the possibility of human neutrophil peptide 1 (HNP1) gene engineering, we construct the eukaryotic expression vector carrying HNP1 gene. Methods With RNA extracted from human neutrophil cell as template, cDNA encoding mature HNP1 was amplified by RT-PCR, and then it was inserted into vector pMD18-T. After restriction endonuclease digestion and DNA sequencing confirmation the gene was subcloned into eukaryotic expression plasmid pcDNA3.1/V5-His-TOPO to construct a recombinant expression plasmid pcDNA3.1/V5-His-TOPO/HNP1, then the recombinant plasmid was transfected into COS-7 cells by lipofectamine, and the expressed product was identified by biotin-avidin enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ( BA-ELISA). Results The sequence of HNP1 completely matched those published in GenBank, thus eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1/V5-His-TOPO/HNP1 was constructed correctly. The ELISA results showed that the eukaryotic expression plasmid pcDNA3.1/V5-His-TOPO/HNP1 could temporarily express HNP1 in COS-7 cells. Conclusion The successful construction and expression of pcDNA3.1/V5-His-TOPO/HNP1 pave the way for the stable expression HNP1 in mammalian engineering cells.

Objective To understand the personality and self-rated health status and the relationship between them in medical students. Methods By multi-stage cluster random sampling, 878 medical students were selected to investigate the personality by Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Revised (Short Scale For Chinese) and the health status by self-rated health measurement scale (SRHMS1.0). Results The score of L dimension among male and female medical students was significantly higher than that of nation- wide young population. The scores of E, N and P dimensions had no significant difference between them. The score of P dimension of male students was significantly higher than that of female students. The score of students' SRHMS was 339.28?41.19, which was higher than that of general population in China. The score of physical health subscale among male and female students was 144.90?11.41 and 142.73?11.36, respectively (t=2.829, P=0.005). The scores of SRHMS and its three subscales were significantly different in medical students with different personality traits except the score of physical health subscale in students with different grades of P dimension. The scores of E and L dimensions had significantly positive correlation with SRHMS, and the scores of N and P dimensions had significantly negative correlation with SRHMS. Conclusion The personality traits of medical students were remarkably influenced on their self-rated health. To encourage medical students to reform the wholesome personality will be helpful to their health.
