Objective To investigate the protective effect of Danhong Injection(DI) on rats ischemia-reperfusion(I/R) injury after kidney transplantation.Methods Ten normal SD rats were allocated into the sham-operation group,and they were only been anesthetized and exposed kidneys for 45 minutes.The allogeneic male SD rats model of kidney transplantation were established.The qualified rats were divided into 3 groups(10 in each group)at random:I/R model group,DI pretreatment group,and DI treatment group.B1ood urea nitrogen(Bun) and creatinine(Cr) levels in each group were determined at the 24th hour after operation.The expression of Bax and Bcl-2 in kidney were quantitatively detected by immunohistochemistry.Apoptotic index was measured by TUNEL method.Results Compared with the sham-operation group,the apoptosis rate(P

Objective To establish human neural stem cells(HNSCs) model for further basic research and clinical application. Methods Cells from human fetal cerebral cortex were collected and cultured with serum free midium and then identified for nestin immunocytochemical staning;The cells were induced to differentiate by 5% fetal bovin serum and identified by neurofilament-200(NF-200) and glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) immunocytochemical staning. Results The harvested cells appeared as clusters in suspension and both NF-200 and GFAP positive cells were observed after induction.After 12 generations of culture,these cells retained the main characteristics of NSCs.Conclusions The HNSCs were harvested from human fetal cerebral cortex and this HNSCs model can be used for futher basic research and clinical applications.;

Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic autoimmune gastrointestinal disorder induced by ingestion of gluten-containing foods.In the past CD was thought prevalent only in Western countries,whereas it has been found common throughout the world and increasing numbers of Chinese patients has been reported recently.However,there are still many deficiencies in management of patients with CD in China and either the diagnosis or the treatment of CD is lacking evidence-based clinical pathway.We report a case of a young woman with CD presenting with chronic diarrhea,abdominal distention,and weight loss,whose outcome was improved by following evidence-based guidelines of medical nutrition therapy.Diagnosis and treatment of the patient was analyzed with review of foreign and domestic literature to provide readers reference of the standardized nutritional intervention of CD.

Three hundred patients with Graves′ disease (GD) were analysed according to clinical data, which showed a negative correlation between thyroid 131 I turnover and effective half life, suggesting that 131 I turnover is an important parameter for GD therapy of 131 I dose calculation, and a higher cure rate is found in GD patients whose 131 I turnover is less than 1.

Objective　To make a preliminary analysis of orthokeratology(OK) for treating myopia.Methods　OK lenses were chosen to treat myopia with or without astigmatism according to the myopia characterizations, then changes of their visions, refractions, corneal curvature and eccedtricities after being treated for ld, 1、2、3、4 weeks were observed once every 4weeks and were followed up for 18 months.Results　Significant changes were observed after being treated. Slight myopia: the diopters decreased-2.75D±0.50D,the horizontal meridians flattened 1.64±0.21, the vertical 0.92±0.27 and the eccedtricities declined 0.47±0.11; Middle myopia: the diopters decreased -5.50D±0.75D,the horizontal meridians flattened 2.16±0.45, the vertical 1.61±0.67, and the eccedtricities declined 0.38±0.07; High myopia:the diopters did -6.75D±0.50D,the horizontal did 3.86±0.56, the vertical 2.97±0.67 and the eccedtricities did 0.32±0.10. The predicabilities of slight and middle myopia were superior to high myopia's.Conclusion　Orthokeratology is a non-traumatic therapy and the clinical application should be careful and scientific.

Objective To investigate the dynamic variation of flavonoids contents in the flowers of Citrus grandis at different flowering periods. Methods The content of total flavonoids in the flowers of Citrus grandis was determined by means of ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy ,and the contents of naringin and rhoifolin were determined by HPLC. Results The content of total flavonoids in the flowers during the flower withering period ,the young fruit period ,the blossom period,and the budding period was 306.90 mg.g-1,277.93 mg.g-1,215.55 mg.g-1 and 162.74 mg.g-1 respectively. The naringin content during the above four different periods was 246.31 mg.g-1,213.93 mg.g-1,175.94 mg.g-1 and 130.90 mg.g-1 respectively. The rhoifolin content during the four periods was unchanged. Conclusion The contents of total flavonoids and naringin in flowers of Citrus grandis during flower withering period are the highest.

Objective To evaluate the clinical toxicity and efficacy of S-1 combined with γ-ray body stereotactic radiation therapy in treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer.Methods Forty-five patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer were randomly divided into two groups.The combination group received γ-ray stereotactic body radiation therapy which was given isodose curve of 50 ％-60 ％,tumor encircling dose of 3.0-4.5 Gy per fraction depended on dimension of tumors,9-12 fractions.Combined with S-1 40 mg/m2,2 times/d,for consecutive twenty-one days for four courses.The control group was given γ-ray stereotactic body radiation therapy only.Toxicities and effects were evaluated according to the criteria of WHO and RTOG.Results The CR rates in combination group and control group were 30.4 ％ (7/23) and 13.6 ％ (3/22),the response rates were 91.3 ％ (21/23) and 63.6 ％ (14/22) (x2 =4.980,P =0.026).The rates of gastrointestinal tract side reaction in combination group and control group were 82.6 ％ and 68.2 ％ (x2 =1.267,P =0.260),myelosuppression in combination group and control group were 78.3 ％ and 63.6 ％ (x2 =1.171,P =0.279).The rate of Ⅲ-Ⅳ grade myelosuppression in combination group were higher than that in control group (x2 =4.874,P =0.027).The median progression-free survival (PFS) rates of two groups were 8 months and 6 months respectively (x2 =1.357,P ＞ 0.05),the median survival period were 17 months and 14 months (x2 =1.017,P ＞ 0.05),1 year survival rates were 60.9 ％ and 54.5 ％ respectively (x2 =0.184,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions S-1 combined with body gamma system treatment can improve local control rate and effective rate for inoperable patients with local advanced pancreatic carcinoma,and the adverse reactions are well tolerated.This method can be used as locally advanced pancreatic cancer chemoradiation safe and effective choice.

Objective To study the effect of Src tyrosine kinase inhibition on subcutaneously transplanted tumor of human lung adenocarcinoma in mice and its mechanism. Methods For the subcutaneously transplanted tumor model, A549 cells or PC-9 cells were inoculated into SCID mice by subcutaneous injection. Immunohistochemistry was used to show the effect of Src tyrosine kinase inhibition on proliferation index (Ki-67 staining) and microvessel density (CD31 staining) of subcutaneously transplanted tumor of human lung adenocarcinoma in mice. Results Subcutaneously transplanted tumor of PC-9 cells was sensitive to src tyrosine kinase inhibitor. There was significant difference between treatment group and control group (P <0.01). There was significant difference between the two treatment group too (P <0.01). Stopping treatment for 1 week, the inhibition rate of tumor growth were 33.19 % and 84.79 % in 10 mg·kg-1·d-1 and 50 mg·kg-1·d-1 treatment group, respectively. The same treatment was less effective to subcutaneous tumors produced by A549 cells. Treatment with 50 mg·kg-1·d-1 Src tyrosine kinase inhibitor significantly reduced the proliferation index of subcutaneously transplanted tumor produced by PC-9 cells (P<0.01) and tended to reduce the proliferation index of subcutaneously transplanted tumor produced by A549 cells (P >0.05). Treatment with 50 mg·kg-1·d-1 Src tyrosine kinase inhibitor significantly reduced micro vascular density in both PC-9 and A549 induced subcutaneous tumors (P <0.05). Conclusion Inhibition of Src tyrosine kinase could suppress the progression of subcutaneously transplanted tumor, not only by the inhibition of cell proliferation of lung adenocarcinoma cells directly, but also by the inhibition of angiogenesis indirectly.
