Oxyfedrine (Oxy ) exhibited inhibitory effect on washed rabbit platelet aggregation and MDA production induced by thrombin (4 U /ml) . The concentration of Oxy causing 50% inhibition of platelet aggregation induced by thrombin was 254 ?mol/L . Up to 2 nig/ml, acetysalicylic acid (ASA) could not antagonize platelet aggregation induced by thrombin 。 However, ASA 50 ?g/ml reduced the generation of MDA markedly. These results suggest that anti-aggregation of Oxy may be related to inhibition of PAF formation and the effect of Oxy on MDA generation may be due to the inhibition of arachi-donic acid release.

Objective To study the CT manifestations of metastatic lymph node of thyroid carcinoma. Methods CT appearances of metastatic lymph node of thyroid carcinoma proved by surgery and pathology in 108 patients were reviewed. Results Of these 108 cases, metastatic lymph nodes were located at superoir and middle internal jugular chain(n=76), inferior internal jugular chain and super clavicular region(n=86), tracheoesophageal groove(n=52), and superior mediastinum(n=17). Of 84 thyroid papillary carcinoma patients, the attenuation of metastatic lymph nodes were similar to that of normal thyroid gland(n=16), with cystic formations (n=24), intracystic high attenuation papillary-like nodules (n=18), and fine granular calcifications (n=11). Of 24 follicular carcinoma, medullary carcinoma, and clear cell carcinoma patients, 17 cases had significant homogeneous or heterogeneous enhanced nodes, and the attenuation was the same as primary or recurrent thyroid tumors. Conclusion For thyroid carcinoma, the most common locations of metastatic lymph nodes were internal jugular chain, tracheoesophageal groove, and superior mediastinum regions. Marked enhancement similar to normal thyroid gland, cystic formations with intracystic high attenuation papillary-like nodules, and fine discrete granular calcifications were the characteristic manifestations of metastatic lymph node of papillary carcinoma. Marked homogeneous or heterogeneous enhancement after contrast administration and the same attenuation as the primary or recurrent thyroid tumor were found in follicular carcinoma, medullary carcinoma, and clear cell carcinoma metastases.

Objective To explore the effect of chronic low lead exposure on molecular pathological mechanisms of learning and memory of rats at the developmental stage Methods The changes of N methyl D aspartate receptor 1 (NMDAR 1) mRNA expression in rat hippocampus were observed by using digoxigenin labled anti sense oligonucleotide probes in situ hybridization technique Results The changes in NMDAR 1 mRNA levels in Pb exposed rat hippocampus were found to be dependent upon the developmental period of exposure and the region of the hippocampus analyzed Hippocampal NMDAR 1 mRNA levels increased significantly in the CA1 (18 75%) and CA3 (13 2%) ( P

Objective To investigate the preventive effect of oral ulcer using two methods in radio-therapeutic patients after tongue squamous cell carcinoma operation. Methods Thirty-six radiotherapeutic patients after tongue squamous cell carcinoma operation were collected from May 2012 to May 2014 and divided into control group and treatment group according to the random number table method. Regular oral nursing was administered to control group, treatment group were received regular therapy plus orally vitamin B and cetylpyridinium chloride gargle for gargling, and then evaluated the efficacy according related standards. Results Less oral ulcer (1/18 vs.7/18,χ2=-2.372,P<0.05), better oral lustration (Z=-2.093,P<0.05) and overall oral nursing effect (Z=-2.166,P<0.05) were observed in treatment group compared to control group after 7 days of therapy, however, treatment group presented no significantly better comfort level at the same time (Z=-1.708,P>0.05). Conclusions Regular therapy plus orally vitamin B and cetylpyridinium chloride gargle for gargling are effective for the prevention of oral ulcer in radiotherapeutic patients after tongue squamous cell carcinoma operation.

Aim To investigate the protective effect of pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide(PACAP)on focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury in rats.Methods The models of focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion in rats were established with suture-occluded method to simulate the middle cerebral artery ischemia reperfusion injury in clinic.The treatment groups were given three different dose PACAP(PACAP 10-11 mol,PACAP 10-10 mol and PACAP 10-9 mol) in 15 minutes before cerebral ischemia.PACAPs were infused into lateral cerebral ventricle by microinjector.The water content of brain,the activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD),the content of malondialdehyde(MDA) and the content of nitrogen monoxidum(NO) of the brain tissue were determined.Results Compared with NS group,the water content of brain and the concentration of MDA and NO were obviously lower in each PACAP treatment group,while the activity of SOD was elevated to different degrees.Conclusion PACAP has an obvious protective effect on ischemia-reperfusion injury of focal brain tissue in rats,in which edema-alleviating,free radicals-scavenging and lipid peroxidation-attenuating could be involved.The protective effect seems to be more clear in middle-and high-dose group than in low-dose group.

· AIM: To investigate the influence of TGF-β 2 antisense oligonucleotide(ASON) on the differentiation, proliferation of stromal fibroblast in corneal stroma injury.both eyes of 28 rabbits, the right eyes were served as experimental group, corneal incisions were sutured with 8-0 coated vicryl suture carrying TGF-β 2 ASON; the left eyes were served as control group, corneal incision were sutured with common 8-0 coated vicryl suture. Rabbits were killed at 4, 7, 14 and 28d after surgery, stromal fibroblasts were examined by immune histochemistry and electron microscopy.significantly reduced the numbers of cells expressingα -smooth muscle actin (α -SMA) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). The ultrastructure of fibroblast had no significant difference in two groups.differentiation and proliferation of stromal fibroblast in corneal injury. This will be a new method to adjust corneal wound repair.
