The morbidity and mortality of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are very high. Brain injury involves in several mechanisms after ICH, including the direct tissue destruction by the mechanical force on brain tissue surrounding the hernatoma in the process of hematoma formation, the release of clot-derived factors (thrombin, hemoglobin degradation products), inflammatory response and complement cascade reaction, etc. This article reviews the above mechanisms

Strokc is one of the most feared perioperative complications.This article systematically reviews the incidence, mechanisms, risk factors stratification,and relief of perioperative stroke.Aiming at the risk factors and pathogeneses,it is hopeful to improve from the aspect of operative methods.techniques,and medication,and thus to decrease the risks of perioperative stroke and improve prognosis.

Objective To immortalize rat astrocytes which could be used as cell carriers for transgenic cellular analgesia. Methods Astrocytes were isolated from cerebral cortex of newborn SD rats by trypsin digestion and cultured according to the method of differential cell adhesiveness and transfected with plasmid pCMVSV40T/ PUR containing the simian virus 40 large tumor antigen (SV40Tag) gene. The positive colonies were isolated by puromycin selection and expanded by many passages. The integration and expression of large T antigen gene were detected and the immuno-reactivity of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) was determined by PCR, RT-PCR and immuno-cytochemistry. Results Rat astrocytes were successfully cultured in vitro and positively stained for the astrocytic marker GFAP. The positive colonies were isolated and subcultured for 50 passages. PCR and RT-PCR products were analyzed using 1.5% agarose gel electrophoresis. The size of amplifacation product of target gene was identical to that of the positive control (558 bp) . There was no PCR and RT-PCR product from non-transfected cells. DNA sequencing and BLAST showed that 558 bp nucleotides were identical to the SV40Tag gene of the Genbank (100%). The transfected cells were positively stained for the SV40Tag and GFAP. Conclusion Immortalized rat astrocyte strain with SV40 tag gene is constructed successfully.

Objective To study the biological character of rat astrocyte strain immortalized by simian virus 40 large T antigen gene(SV40Tag) and explore the feasibility of using it as cell vehicle for transgenic cellular analgesia.Methods Rat cerebral cortical astrocytes (AST) and immortalized rat astrocyte strain (IAST) were cultured in vitro. Morphology and growth features of AST and IAST were examined and compared after subculture, freezing and recovery. The ultrastructure of the cells was observed by transmission electron microscopy. The glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in these cells was detected by immuno-cytochemistry. The cell proliferation rate and cell cycle were determined by bromodeoxyuridine labelling and flow cytometry. AST and IAST were cultured in soft agar and inoculated in nude mice to investigate the tumorigenesis of IAST. Results LAST could be subcultured successively. The cells remained monolayer, anchorage dependent and the growth was attachment-inhibited. When AST was subcultured for only 10 passages, replicative senescense began. Subculture, freezing and recovery did not influence the shape and proliferation of IAST (94%?5%) , but decreased the vitality rate of AST (54%?4% ) (P

Objective To explore diagnosis and prognosis of heart failure in children by measuring brain natriurettic peptide(BNP) and cardiac troponin I(CTnI).Methods Forty-one children subjects with heart failure were chosen,and then they were divided into three stages,early stage of heart failure,stage of heart failure and stage of recovery according to the ROSS cardiac function score method.In contrast with the former group,41 healthy children were chosen as control group.BNP and CTnI levels of blood plasma were analyzed by radioimmunoassay(RIA) and chemiluminescent immunoassay(CLIA) respectively,the relationship between the BNP level of blood plasma and prognosis of CHF group was analyzed.Results At early stage of heart failure,BNP and CTnI levels began to rise.They amount to highest peaks at stage of heart failure and went down at stage of recovery.But they were still higher than those of control group(P

The Wnt pathway plays a crucial role in skeletal development and is indispensable for determination of OS cell lines. In recent years, experimental evidences on Wnt signaling pathway in OS cell lines and OS animal models, and that of Wnt signaling pathway as a diagnosis and prognosis marker of OS suggested that Wnt signaling pathway plays an important role in the progression, invasion and metastasis of OS. In addition, the strategy and safety evaluation to target Wnt to treat OS are underway. Exploring the significant role of Wnt signaling pathway in OS may aid in personalizing therapeutics to increase patient survival.

Objective To investigate the changes of histamine receptors in bladder before and after the treatment by sodium hyaluronate in rats of interstial cystitis (IC). Methods Twenty IC model rats were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, with 10 for each group.The bladders in experimental group were filled with sodium hyaluronate, while the rats in control group were executed at once. The bladders were dyed with HE staining, special staining and immunohistochemistry staining to count the number of mononuclear cells and mast cells and observe the changes of histamine receptors. Results In experimental group,the counts of mononuclear cells and mast cells were 12.20±2.48 and 2.90±0.87 respectively;the numbers of average optical of histamine receptor H1, H2, H3, H4 were 0.015±0.007, 0.006±0.001, 0.007±0.004, 0.061±0.026 , respectively. In control group, the counts of mononuclear cells and mast cells were 23.90±3.07 and 7.08±1.23;the numbers of average optical of histamine receptor H1, H2, H3, H4 were 0.055±0.033, 0.031±0.023, 0.033±0.017, 0.091±0.059, respectively. The differences of mononuclear cells and mast cells were significant between the 2 groups(P＜0.01). The differences of average optical of histamine receptor H1, H2, H3 between the 2 group were significant (P＜0.05), while the difference of histamine receptor H4 was not significant(P＞0.05). Conclusion Histamine receptor H1, H2, H3 take part in the development of IC, the antagons may be used for the treament of IC.

Objective To optimize the extraction process of total flavonoids in Hypericum perforatum L.. Methods The concentration and volume of alcohol, extraction time and frequency were systematically studied by the total flavonoids as the marker. Results The more effective way to extract total flavones was extraction with 8 times amount of 70% alcohol under reflux for 3 times and 2 h for each time.
