Objective: To explore the protective roll of ifbroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) in endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) induced rat's H9c2 cardiomyocyte apoptosis with its mechanism. Methods: pcDNA4 was used as gene vector, pcDNA4-FGF21 plasmid was constructed and transfected into rat's H9c2 myocardiocytes for 48 h. ERS model was established by 10 μM tunicamycin (TM) induction for 24 h. The experiment was conducted in 4 groups:①Control group,②TM group, the cells were treated by TM,③pcDNA4-FGF21+TM group,④pcDNA4+TM group. The expressions of FGF21, protein kinase R-like ER kinase (PERK) and c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK) mediated apoptosis pathway related protein were measured by Western blot analysis; cell survival rate was examined by CCK-8 method and apoptosis rate was detected by TUNEL technique. Results: pcDNA4-FGF21 vector was successfully constructed and overexpressed in H9c2 myocardiocytes. Compared with Control group, TM group and pcDNA4+TM group had up-regulated endogenous FGF21 expression, increased PERK and JNK mediated apoptosis pathway related protein expression; reduced cell survival rate and elevated apoptosis rate. Compared with TM group and pcDNA4+TM group, pcDNA4-FGF21+TM group had down-regulated PERK and JNK mediated apoptosis pathway related protein expression; increased cell survival rate and decreased apoptosis rate. Conclusion: FGF21 overexpression can reduce ERS induced apoptosis rat's H9c2 myocardiocytes which might be partly related for inhibiting PERK and JNK mediated signal transduction of apoptosis pathway.

0.05).There was a positive correlation between the tempo of the engraftment and the progressive increase of the doses of MNC in the range of (3~5.99)?108/kg,but which was not found in the range of 6?108/kg.Conclusion These results indicate that MNC taken as an index for the measurement of the hematopoietic stem cell/progenitor content can reliably predict hematopoietic reconstitution after both HLA-matched and-mismatched sibling donor peripheral blood stem cell transplantation,with the rate and tempo of engraftment comparable with that in CD34+ cell group,and however,the target dose was reached with one apheresis in all 83 donors in MNC group(100%),as compared with 14 donors in CD34+ cell group(37.84%),suggesting that MNC may replace CD34+ cell as an independent index for the assessment of the stem cell/progenitor content in clinical practice.

The index components contents of different time and different stubbles in honeysuckle were measured by HPLC, and were analysis by using the method of SPSS. Results showed that the content of index ingredients of different time had differences, and firstly decreased, then increased with time. The content of index ingredients of different stubbles had significantly differences, and firstly decreased, then increased with time. The chlorogenic acid contents were 2.059%-3.593%. The luteolosid contents were 0.110%-0.171%. Results indicated that the best picking buds time is before seven o'clock in the morning and evening at before and after seven o'clock, the index component content is higher. Picking buds in spring and at autumn index component content is higher; Picking buds in summer index component content is low. The experiment provides theoretical support for quality control in the whole process of the honeysuckle harvested and comprehensive utilization of honeysuckle.

Objective To analyze the frequency of NPM1 mutation in de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients and the relationship between NPM1 mutation and chromosome alterations,as well as FAB subgroups,and to analyze the mutation type.MethodsA total of 99 de novo AML patients from 2004 to 2010 in China-Japan Friendship Hospital were studied.Genomic DNA was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR),denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and capillary electrophoresis were used to detect the mutation of NPM1 gene in 99 AML patients,and karyotyping was performed in 72 AML patients by G banding techniques.DNA sequences analysis of NPM1 mutation was performed on 10 patients.Chi-square test was used to compare the frequencies of NPM1 mutation among the different subgroups,and McNemar's test was used to compare the different rates between denaturing PAGE and capillary electrophoresis.ResultsThe frequencies of NPM1 mutations were detected in 15% (15/99) of AML patients with capillary electrophoresis and 11% (11/99 ) with denaturing PAGE(x2 =2.25,P >0.05 ).The NPM1 was at different rates in M2(27%,8/30),M5(32%,6/19),M6( 13%,1/8),respectively (x2 =1.06,P > 0.05 ),and not detected in the other subgroups.NPM1 mutation in patients with normal karyotype(26% ) was more prevalent than patients with abnormal karyotype (4%) (x2 =5.61,P < 0.05)All of the 10 patients were of A type ( c.860_863dupTCTG).The C-terminal portion of the NPM protein by replacing the last seven amino acids(WQWRKSL) with 11 residues (CLAVEEVSLRK).Two intronic deletions were novel,one case was IVS10-18_-15delCTTT,the other was IVS10-17_-15delTTT.Conclusions NPM1 mutations represents a common genetic abnormality in AML patients,and NPM1 mutation in patients with normal karyotype is higher than patients with abnormal karyotype.Two new intronic deletion mutations are identified.

Objective To investigate the effect of slice orientation on the popliteomeniscal fasciculi (PMF) MR imaging and its normal MRI appearances. Methods Volumetric MRI data of 40 knees of healthy volunteers were acquired using an isotropic 3D turbo spin echo (TSE) MR sequence. The posterior tangential line to both femoral condyles was used as the reference line, and the long axis sectional images of the popliteal hiatus region were reformatted at 0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75° and 90° to the reference line. The MRI appearances of the PMF were scored respectively and classified. The final scores of the PMF at each slice angle were statistically analyzed by a repeated measure ANOVA. Results At 0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75° and 90° slice angles: scores of the anteroinferior fasciculi were (1.7±0.7), (1.8±0.6), (1.9±0.6), (2.0±0.7), (1.9±0.7), (1.8±0.8) and (1.0±0.5),respectively. Scores of the posterosuperior fasciculi were (1.5±0.7), (1.9±0.7), (2.1±0.6), (2.2±0.6),(2.2±0.6), (2.0±0.8) and (1.7±0.8), respectively. There were statistically significant differences in the average scores at each slice angle for both anteroinferior fasciculi (F = 29.744, P = 0.000) and posterosuperior fasciculi (F = 19.770,P =0.000). The anteroinferior fasciculi and the posterosuperior fasciculi had highest average scores at the angle of 45°. The percentage of type A, B and C of anteroinferior fascicali were 20.0% (8/40), 75.0% (30/40) and 5.0% (2/40), respectively. The percentage of type A, B and C of posterosuperior fasciculi were 37.5% (15/40) ,62.5% (25/40) and 0% (0/40) ,respectively. Conclusion The anteroinferior fasciculi and the posterosuperior fasciculi can be well depicted at the angle of 45° slice orientation.
