Collateral circulation may be a potential therapeutic target for ischemic stroke.However,aiming at improving the treatment of collateral circulation,it has not yet got the reliable clinical validation now.Therefore,undergoing the study of collateral circulation first in the animal models of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion has important practical significance.This article reviews the methods of rat chronic cerebral hypoperfusion models,neurobehavioral evaluation,cerebral perfusion assessment,collateral circulation pathways,and the experimental research status of improving collateral circulation.

Objective To study material basis of Zhou's prescription, components of effective parts Ⅰ in Zhou's prescription was gualitative and quantitative analyzed. Methods The components of effective part Ⅰ was identified by test-tube reaction and qualitative TLC method, the content of saponins and flavones was quantitative analyzed. Results Total content of the saponins and flavone are 1.07% and 0.85% in Zhou's Prescription. The purity of saponins and flavones in effective parts Ⅰ are 37.4% and 29.7%. Conclusion The main components of effective part Ⅰ in Zhou's Prescription were flavones and saponins.

Objective To explore the role of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1)in development of progressive fibrosis via the inhibition of extracellular matrix degradation,and to reveal the contributive role of PAI-1 in muscular dystrophy(MD).Methods Expression and cellular localization of PAI-1 protein were examined in frozen muscle specimens obtained via biopsy from 5 patients with duchenne muscular dystrophy(DMD),3 patients with becker muscular dystrophy(BMD),9 patients with congenital muscular dystrophy(CMD) and 4 cases with normal muscle by immunohistochemistry,double immunofluorescence and Western-blot analysis.Results PAI-1 was positive only in vascular endothelial cells of normal muscle.Both immunohistochemistry and Western-blot analysis showed that PAI-1 expression distinctly increased in most dystrophic muscles of MD than that in normal muscles.Double immunolabeling revealed that PAI-1 strongly expressed in cytoplasm and nuclei of regenerating muscle fibers,macrophages,macrophage infiltrating necrotic fibers.Some activated fibroblasts in endomysium and perimysium of DMD and CMD muscles were positive for PAI-1.Conclusions The functional consequence of overexpression of PAI-1 in dystrophic muscles is unknown but the elevated local expression of PAI-1 in diseased muscles of MD and their distinct distribution pattern provide evidence that PAI-1 participate in pathogenesis of MD.

Objective To investigate the expressions of heparanase(Hpa) and basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) as well as their relationship with angiogenesis in human ovarian carcinoma.MethodsForty-one ovarian carcinoma specimens resected from the patients diagnosed with ovarian carcinoma from January 2003 to November 2007 were examined by immunohistochemistry for the expressions of Hpa and bFGF and microvessel density(MVD).ResultsHpa highly expressed in ovarian carcinoma,and its expression was positively correlated with MVD and bFGF expression(r=0.351,P

Colorectal cancer is a common malignant tumor in the gastrointestinal tract, with the characteristics of high morbidity and mortality. Studies have shown that the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer is closely related to the abnormal activation of Wnt signaling pathway. Abnormal expression of β-catenin in Wnt pathway is found both in the cytoplasm and nucleus of tumor cells. Different drugs can target the Wnt signaling pathway and its upstream and downstream related factors to inhibit or suppress the development of colorectal cancer. We review the components of Wnt signaling pathway, and the correlation between Wnt signaling pathway and colorectal cancer. Then, we summarize the current status of drug research targeting the Wnt signaling pathway in colorectal cancer. Finally, the challenges and prospects of these methods and drugs were briefly summarized.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of proprioception disturbance on the activities of daily living (ADL) after stroke.Methods67 stroke patients were divided into group A (32 cases with proprioception disturbance) and group B (35 cases without proprioception disturbance) according to if having proprioception disturbance. All patients of two groups were treated with routine medicine and rehabilitation treatment. Modified Barthel Index (MBI) was used to assess ADL when admission and 8 weeks later.ResultsIn all 67 stroke patients, the incidence of proprioception disturbance was 48.6%. After 8 weeks treatment, MBI scores of both groups improved significantly (P<0.05～0.01) and the average scores of group A was obviously lower than that of group B (P<0.05).ConclusionProprioception disturbance has bad affect on recovery of ADL after stroke obviously. Examination for proprioception disturbance should be performed in early stage after stroke and rehabilitation training should be carried on as soon as possible.

We predicted the anti-ulcerative colitis (UC) mechanism of Fructus Amomi based on network pharmacology. The anti-UC activity of Fructus Amomi were investigated by in vivo animal experiment, and the active components of Fructus Amomi were obtained through TCMSP, PubChem database and literature research. Animal welfare and experimental procedures follow the regulations of the Animal Ethics Committee of Institute of Materia Medica of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. The potential targets of the active components and UC were predicted by SwissTargetPrediction, GeneCards and TTD databases. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed by String database and Cytoscape software was used to construct a visual network of active component-disease target and perform topological analysis. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were performed using Metascape platform. The molecular docking of key components and core targets was carried out by Sybyl X software. We screened out a total of 12 active components and 189 disease-component overlapping targets. Enrichment analyses obtained 227 related GO items and 168 signaling pathways. According to the results of molecular docking, most active components of Fructus Amomi showed good affinity with the JAKs receptor family. Furthermore, Western blot results verified that Fructus Amomi could effectively inhibit JAK/STAT signaling pathway, indicating that Fructus Amomi might exert the anti-UC activity by regulating JAK/STAT signaling pathway.

Objective To measure the circuit time constants of 4 kinds of radiation survey meters (451P ionization chamber dosimeter,6150AD6 + 6150AD-b dose meter,FH40G + FHZ672E-10 dose meter and AT1123 dose meter) and,to discuss the formula of time response correction and its application.Methods In the condition of continuous exposure of X-ray machine,the ambient dose equivalent rates shown by survey meters were recorded.In order to get the circuits time constant,the least squares fittingmethod was used to fit the data using the time response formula of circuit having a capacitance C and a resistance R in series.Results The relative uncertainty of fitted circuit time constants was higher than 20％ except for 6150AD6 + 6150AD-b dose meter.The relative uncertainty of fitted r was 8％ for 6150AD6 + 6150AD-b dose meter.Conclusions The time required to stabilize the dosimeter readings was 8,5,3 and 2 s,respectively,for the 451P ionization chamber dosimeter,6150AD6 +6150AD-b dose meter,FH40G + FHZ672E-10 dose meter and AT1123 dose meter.The rising trend of their measured values was not fully accordance with the RC circuit time response correction formula.
