AIM: To study the effects of neuregulin-1β (NRG-1β) on the nervous behavioral function, cerebral infarction volume, brain water content (BWC), neuroal apoptosis and aquaporin-4 (AQP-4) expression in astrocytes after cerebral ischemic reperfusion in mice. METHODS: Intraluminal thread methods were applied to establish the middle cerebral artery occlusion reperfusion (MCAO/R) model in mice. Neuregulin-1β (2 μg/kg) was injected into the internal carotid artery for treatment. The nervous behavioral function was evaluated by Bedersons test. The cerebral infarction volume was observed with tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. The BWC was measured by calculating the dry-wet weight ratio. The apoptotic positive cells were counted by immunofluorescence assay. The expression of AQP-4 was determined by immunohistochemical method. RESULTS: Nervous behavioral malfunction appeared in all the mice with left middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and/or reperfusion. The infarction focus showed in the ischemic hemisphere following the injury. The BWC, the numbers of neuroal apoptotic cells and AQP-4 expression in astrocytes were higher than those in sham control group. In MCAO/R+NRG-1β treatment group, the nervous behavioral function at ischemia 24 h significantly improved, the numbers of apoptotic positive cells reduced and the infarction volume decreased significantly than those in MCAO/R group (P<0.05). The BWC and AQP-4 expression in astrocytes showed no significant difference compared with MCAO/R group (P>0.05). In the reperfusion 22 h, 46 h and 70 h groups, the five indexes mentioned above were significantly different from those in the corresponding MCAO/R groups (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: NRG-1β might reduce cerebral edema and infarction volume, and improve the nervous behavioral function via down-regulating the expression of AQP-4 in astrocytes and inhibiting the neuronal apoptosis induced by ischemia reperfusion injury.

Objective To analyze the imaging features of congenital spinal deformity (CSD) associated with split cord malformation (SCM) and other intraspinal abnormalities, and to investigate the relationship to neurological symptoms. Methods 105 cases CSD with SCM were retrospectively studied. Analysis the imaging features of SCM (including type of SCM, location of SCM, location and apical vertebrae, symmetry of divided cord) and other intraspinal abnormalities. To investigate the relationship of the factors and neurological symptoms using Chi?square test of one factor and multiple factors logistic regression analysis. Re?sults 28 cases (26.7%) were formation failure, 33 cases (31.4%) were segmentation failure, and 44 cases (41.9%) were combina?tion of 2 disorders. 41 cases had neurological symptoms, 64 cases were asymptomatic. The distribution of SCM combined with spi?nal deformities:thoracic (11 cases), thoracolumbar (18 cases) and lumbar (20 cases) in type I SCM, thoracic (31 cases), thoracolum?bar (20 cases) and lumbar (5 cases) in type II, none was in cervical. The location of SCM upper than apical vertebrae 29 cases, on apical vertebrae 25 cases, lower than apical vertebrae 51 cases. Spinal cord was splitted symmetric 27 cases and asymmetric 78 cases. 66 cases combined with other intraspinal abnormalities, lower conus 42 cases, syringomyelia 38 cases, meningocele 10 cas?es and sakrale zyste 5 cases. Associated with intraspinal abnormalities, the rate of neural symptoms was different. According to Chi?square test of one factor and multiple factors logistic regression analysis, lumbar SCM, spinal cord asymmetric and lower conus were related with neurological symptoms. Conclusion The predilection spinal deformity of type I is combination, type II SCM is segmentation failure. When SCM patients associated with other intraspinal abnormalities, the incidence of neurologic symptoms is increased. The lumbar SCM, hemicords asymmetry and lower lying conus have significant relationship with neurologic symptoms.

Objective To optimize the concentrate process ofDanshen injection.Methods The concentration changes of Salvianic acid A sodium, Protocatechuic aldehyde and Salvianolic acid B were selected as indexes to compare mospheric concentrate, vacuum concentrate, nanofiltration concentrate and nanofiltration-vacuum coupling concentrate methods with HPLC. Results Phenolic acid composition changed when atmospheric and vacuum concentrate method were used. Retention rate of three phenolic acids were over 93% after nanofiltration concentration, but the concentration efficiency was limited by solution viscosity. Nanofiltration-vacuum coupling concentrate methods could solve the above problems, meanwhile, retention rate of three phenolic acids were over 91%.Conclusions Nanofiltration technology takes advantage in medicine extraction concentrate with heat sensitive ingredients, and its application prospect in traditional Chinese medicine pharmaceutical industry would be broad.

BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that extracorporeal shock wave therapy is an effective, safe, and non-invasive treatment for ischemic heart disease, which can improve angiogenesis in the ischemic myocardium. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the research advances in promotion of angiogenesis for ischemic myocardium by extracorporeal shock wave therapy. METHODS:A computer-based online search of PubMed database and CNKI database was performed for relevant articles published between 1998 and 2014 with key words of “shock wave, ischemic heart disease, angiogenesis, cytokine, stem cel” in English and Chinese, respectively. Articles related to the promotion of angiogenesis for ischemic cardiovascular disease by extracorporeal shock wave were selected. Repetitive articles were excluded. According to inclusion criteria, 51 literatures were selected in result analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Extracorporeal shock wave therapy can improve angiogenesis in the ischemic myocardium by mobilizing proliferation and differentiation of stem cels into vascular endothelial cels, and by enhancing the expression of growth factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor. Moreover, the extracorporeal shock wave therapy can create a local favorable microenvironment for angiogenesis by inhibiting inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis and by regulating components of the extracelular matrix. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy plays an important role in the angiogenesis of ischemic myocardium and displays a good clinical prospect in the treatment of ischemic heart disease. However, the specific mechanism requires further studies.

Objective: To observe the effect of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) on proliferation, cell cycle and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Methods: HUVECs were culturedin vitro at the concentration of (1×105/ml) and the cells were divided into 2 sets of groups:CSWT group, the cells were treated by different energy of (0.03, 0.09, 0.18, 0.24) mJ/mm2 respectively and corresponding Control group, in which the cells had no CSWT. HUVEC proliferation was detected by CCK colorimetric method, cell cycle was measured by lfow cytometry, mRNA and protein expressions of ICAM-1 were examined by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis respectively. Results: Compared with Control group, (0.09 mJ/mm2) CSWT group had promoted HUVECs proliferation,P<0.05 and the other CSWT groups were similar to corresponding Control groups,P>0.05; (0.09 mJ/mm2) CSWT group showed decreased proportion of G0/G1 stage and increased S and G2/M stages, allP<0.05; while (0.03 mJ/mm2) CSWT group only increased the proportion of G2/M stage,P<0.05 and the other CSWT groups were similar to corresponding Control group,P>0.05. Compared with Control group, (0.09 mJ/mm2 ) and (0.03mJ/mm2) CSWT groups showed increased mRNA expression of ICAM-1 (9.27±0.95) vs (1.02±0.27),P<0.001 and (7.08±0.60) vs (1.02±0.27),P<0.01; (0.09 mJ /mm2) CSWT group had elevated protein expression of ICAM-1,P<0.05. Conclusion: ESWT especially at (0.09 mJ/mm2) may accelerate cell cycle transition from G0/G1 stage to S and G2/M stages, promote HUVECs proliferation and increase ICAM-1 expression which may play important roles in ESWT facilitated angiogenesis in vitro.
