Objective To study the effects of mobile telephone microwave radiation on learning and memory of young and senile mice. Methods The young(5 months old) and senile(10 months old) male Kunming mice were randomly divided into 2 groups respectively, the control and exposed. The young and senile mice were settled in the environment of the mobile telephone signal shoots station (3 V/m) and exposed to the mobile telephone conversation radiation with two mobile telephones for 5 h/d for 50 consecutive days. The control group was in the environment without microwave radiation (0 V/m). The capability of learning and memory of each group were determined by Morris maze test(the time of finding the flat roof:the latency), the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AchE) in the hippocampus and temporal lobe were measured by spectrophotometry. Results With the increase of training time, no significant decrease of the latency was seen in each group. Compared with the senile control group, the activity of AchE in the hippocampus and temporal lobe of the young control group and the senile radiation group were lower(P

Limb rehabilitation is one of the key issues for improving the quality of life in patients with stroke. Studies have demonstrated that the retention and recovery of active movement of hemiplegic limb have predictive value for the prognosis in acute stroke. The responsible lesion sites and rehabilitation training in the acute phase may be an important factor in influencing the recovery of active movement ability of hemiplegie upper limb. However, there is still lack of a large, multi-center study, and further related studies are needed.

Objective To master the technique of mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells differentiate into endothelial cells,which would be a new therapeutic approach for cardiovascular disease.Methods Expression of selfrenewal marker genes in E 14 cells was assessed.Expression of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (Flk 1) in monolayer differentiation on day 4 and vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cadherin) on day 8 were detected.On day 8,differentiation cells were also observed under phase contrast microscopy (PCM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM).ES cells and endothelial-specific molecular markers were assessed by RT-PCR at different time-points.Results As self-renewal marker genes were expressed in E14 cells,E14 cells was identified to maintain their selfrenewal pluripotency.The marker gene of letarl,Flk1 was expressed on differentiation day 4.On differentiation day 8 the marker gene VE-cadherin was expressed and as observed under PCM endothelial cells with spindle shape and TEM with Weibel-Palade body,thus were the major populations generated after VEGF induction,and E14 cells were confirmed differentiated into mature endothelial cells.The expressions of genes octamer binding transcription factor 4 (Oct4),Flk1 and VE-cadherin were detected on differentiation day 2,4,6,8 and 10.Conclusions As VE-cadherin gene was expressed in monolayer on differentiation day 8,E14 cells were confirmed differentiated into endothelial cells,which would be a new therapeutic approach for cardiovascular disease.

AimTo study the effects of aspirin (Asp) and verapamil(Ver)alone or in combination on mesenteric microcirculation of rats. MethodsAcute microcirculation disturbance(AMD) was produced by highmolecular weight dextran(Mr 480, 000) 360 mg· kg-1 iv. Arteriol and venul blood flow velocity and diameter (ABFV, VBFV, AD, VD) and blood flow state(BFS) were observed by intravital microcirculation method. Results Asp 2.5, 5 mg · kg-i, Ver 0.3, 0.6 mg · kg-1,Asp+ Ver(1 + 0.15), (2. 5+ 0. 3) mg· kg-1 iv significant increase ABFV by 11.1%, 31.3%, 18.7%,19.5%, 26.5%, 37.3%, VBFV by 12.5%, 5.7%, 2.5%, 3.7%, 30%, 34.7%,AD by 4.3%, 17.9%, 31.5%, 35%, 20%, 38.1% and VDby 2.2%,4.2%, 25%, 31.5%,5.8%,23.5%espectively, and got a raise in the number of capillaries and a marked improvement of BFS. Asp + Ver(1+0.15, 2.5+0.3) mg · kg-1 iv could reverse AMD. Conclusion Asp is superior to Ver in the increase of BFV, but Ver is superior to Asp in expansion of blood vessel. Asp in combination with Ver produces marked synergistic action and protection againist AMD.

Whole mount in situ hybridization with BHC80 RNA probe showed that BHC80 was expressed in zebrafish central nervous system. Morpholino-modified antisense oligonucleotide was injected into zebrafish zygotes to knock down BHC80 expression. BHC80 knockdown resulted in striking decrease of erythrocytes and accumulation of erythrocytes at PBI. Further investigation of embryonic erythrocytes marker βe3 globin and hematopoiesis transcription factors gata1, c-myb and lmo2 by in situ hybridization showed that the erythroid progenitors marked with gata1 in BHC80 knockdown embryos were high proliferation and their differentiation were delayed, which led to decrease of erythrocytes and accumulation of erythrocytes at PBI. Both in situ hybridization and microangiography indicated that vasculature pattern of BHC80 knockdown embryos were almost normal.

ObjectiveTo analyze the change in the incidence of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) in the past 27 years and to probe the relationship between iodine and these carcinomas. MethodsStatistical analysis was performed on data of thyroid diseases, thyroid malignant tumors, PTC , FTC and their complications in Department of Pathology from 1978 to 2004 in General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University with Run test、Cox-Stuart test, ANOVA, t or t′ test and Chi-square test. ResultsIn 27 years there were 231837 cases of biopsies (average 8587cases/year). The biopsies were performed in the thyroid diseases as a whole 6276 cases (2.70%),thyroidmalignanttumors644cases(0.28%), PTCs 465 cases (0.20%), and FTCs 80 cases (0.03%) in 27 years. Biopsies in thyroid diseases as a whole showed a descending tendency since 1982 but an ascending tendency after 1995. Biopsy in malignant thyroid tumor did not show a significant change, and biopsy in PTC showed an ascending tendency and that in FTC showed a descending tendency after 1995. The average age, both in male and female patients, at the time of diagnosis of PTC and FTC showed no significant change during 27 years, but the mean age of male at the time of diagnosis was older than that of female. The ratios of male to female in PTC and FTC were 1:3.31、1:2.81 respectively,and showed no significant change either. There were more biopsies with lymph node metastasis in PTC (33.76%) than those in FTC (10.00%) and more biopsies with blood vessel involved or nodular goiter in FTC (11.25% and 13.75%) than those in PTC (0.65% and 4.52%). Mean age of patients with PTC and nodular goiter (44.3 years old) was older than those without goiter (38.1 years old). The ratios of male to female with PTC and FTC with lymph node metastasis were higher than those without lymph node metastasis. ConclusionThe incidence of thyroid malignant tumors in 27 years has no significant change. The contrary tendency of PTC and FTC suggests that the decreasing malignant degree of carcinoma. It suggests that this area is not in high iodine condition and the change have no relationship with the iodine intake.
