ObjectiveTo observe the effects of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on growth period of cultured bovine retinal pigment epithelium cells in different durations.MethodsDifferent proportion of phase with 4 ng/ml bFGF were measured by Flow Cytometry (FCM) assay.ResultsbFGF increased the RPE cells' proportion of phase S and decreased the proportion of phase G0-G1. ConclusionbFGF can stimulate RPE cells from phase G1 to phase S.

This paper analyzed the main problems in the thesis of postgraduates with specialized master degree of public health.The problems existed were the poor quality of students,untargeted topics of the thesis and unsound evaluation system,etc.Specific measures were proposed for the construction of quality assurance system for postgraduates with specialized master degree of public health including four focus management,multiple evaluation system and post thesis evaluation.

Objective To observe the chronological and spatial expressions of transforming growth factor-? receptor Ⅱ(TGF-?RⅡ) and fibronectin(Fn) in uriniferous tubules of mouse kidney and investigate the correlation of TGF-?RⅡ and Fn with development of uriniferous tubules.Methods The expressions and content changes of TGF-?RⅡ and Fn were examined by immunohistochemistry and stereological method in mouse kidneys on embryonic days 12,14,16 and 18 and postnatal days 1,3,7,14,21,28 and 42.Results The expression of TGF-?RⅡ was found in all stages of renal tubules and collecting ducts and increased gradually with the kidney development;however,the expressions were obvious in all stages of proximal tubules and collecting ducts,while little was observed in all stages of distal tubules.The expression of Fn was detected in all stages of renal tubules and collecting ducts and also increased gradually with the kidney development.Conclusion TGF-?RⅡ and Fn might play an important role in the development and maturation of uriniferous tubules of mouse kidney.

Objective To develop a fast shimming method for permanent magnet MRI system. Methods Peak location method (PLM) was improved by calculating the eddy current effect, and the time deviation was replaced by their phase to increase the precision. Results Experiment showed that the new method took less than 45 s, which was 3 times faster than conventional method while providing the same homogeneity. The result of PLM satisfied the requirement of homogeneity. Conclusion This new method can significantly improve the homogeneity in a short time and satisfy further fast pulse sequence development on 0.5T permanent magnet MRI system, which can be generalized for any permanent magnet first order shimming.

Objective To observe the chronological and spatial expression of fibronectin(Fn)and TGF-?RⅡ in developing mouse glomeruli.Methods The expressions of Fn and TGF-?RⅡ were examined by immunohistochemical and stereological method in embryos(including fetal age of 12,14,16 and 18d)and postnatal mouse kidneys(including the age of 1,3,7,14,21,28 and 42d).Results Immunohistochemical results showed that at fetal age of 14d,Fn was stained in S-shaped corpuscles,but not stained in the comma-shaped corpuscles.After fetal age 16d,Fn was expressed in all stages of glomeruli except the comma-shaped corpuscles.TGF-?RⅡ was stained in all stages of glomeruli from fetal age 14d.Fn and TGF-?RⅡ were localized respectively in basement membrane and cell plasma of glomeruli.Stereological analysis showed that the expression of Fn was increased gradually in all stages of glomeruli with renal development,except in the comma-shaped corpuscles;also,the expression of TGF-?RⅡ increased gradually in all stages of glomeruli with renal development.Conclusion The expressions of Fn and TGF-?RⅡ in embryonic and postnatal mouse kidney show chronological and spatial sequence,implying that they might play a role in the development and maturation of renal glomeruli of mouse.

Objective To investigate the effect of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) on the proliferation and expression of IL-8 of SKOV3 cells in acid environment,and the role of nuclear factor ?B (NF-?B) in the process.Methods SKOV3 cell lines were divided into 5 groups: normal culture group,acid environment group,acid environment plus PDTC groups (25,50 and 100 mol?L-1 PDTC).All the SKOV3 cells were cultivated for 12 h.The effect of PDTC on the proliferation of SKOV3 in the acid environment was determined by MTT,the content of IL-8 protein in the culture supernatant was detected by ELISA and the expression of NF-?B protein was measured by Western blotting.Results The IL-8 expression level in the acid environment was(1 384.211?42.320) ng?L-1.there was significant difference compared with normal group(617.505 ng?L-1?47.850 ng?L-1)(P

Objective To investigate the effect of electroacupuncture on the rehabilitation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and level of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin 1β (IL-1β). Methods 140 cases of RA meeting the inclusion criteria were divided into control group and observation group equally according to therapeutic schemes. All the patients accepted medicine and rehabilitation training, while the observation group accepted electroacupuncture in addition. The effective rate and the symptoms were observed, the serum level of rheumatoid factor (RF), antistreptolysin O antibody (ASO), C-reactive protein (CRP), NF-κB, TNF-α and IL-1β were tested before and after treatment. Results The effective rate was 92.8% in the observation group, which was significantly more than that of 80.0% in the control group (P<0.05). The joint pain index, joint tenderness index and joint swollenness index reduced in the observation group compared with those in the control group (P<0.05), as well as the serum level of RF, ASO, CRP, NF-κB, TNF-α and IL-1β (P< 0.05). Conclusion Electroacupuncture may improve the effects of rehabilitation training for RA and inhibit the inflammation, which may associate with the inhibition of activation of NF-κB.

ObjectiveTo discuss the effect of evidence-based nursing in improvement of unhealthy emotion and treatment compliance of patients undergoing painless gastroscopy. Methods134 patients from May 2008 to December 2010 undergoing painless gastroscopy were chosen as study object.According to voluntariness of the patients and their families,they were divided into the evidence-based nursing group (70 cases) and the routine psychological care group (68 cases).The satisfaction degree with nursing,unhealthy emotion,and the compliance during treatment process were evaluated with SAS and SDS.ResultsThe satisfaction degree of patients in the evidence-based nursing group was 92.86％,higher than 79.41％ in the routine psychological care group.No significant difference was shown in SAS and SDS score before treatment between two groups,but unhealthy emotion and treatment compliance after treatment significantly improved,and the improvement degree of the evidence-based nursing group was more evident. ConclusionsApplication of evidence-based care model in painless gastroscopy has more obvious advantages in improvement of unhealthy emotions and treatment compliance compared with routine nursing.It has more important value for clinical practice and is more conducive to improve the quality of life of patients.
