1.The expression of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 in the hippocampus of rats restrained and stressed by electroacupuncture
Chinese Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2009;31(3):159-162
Objective To observe the expression of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) in the hippocampi of rats stressed by restraint,and adjustments to 11β-HSD1 expression in response to electroacupuncture.The mechanisms of adjustment of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis(HPA) to electroacupuncture were also studied.Methods Rats were randomly divided into a control group,a group stressed by restraint and an electroacupuncture group.The rats in the control group received no treatment. The rats in the strssd group were put into a small columnar cage and their hind legs tied outside the cage. The electroacupuncture group, in addition to being restrained,received electroacupuncture at the Zusanli acupoints on both sides of their bodies. The rats were then sacrificed and their hippocampi were isolated and lysed. The expression of 11β-HSD1 in each hippocampus were observed using the Western blotting technique. Results The leves of expression of 11β-HSD1 in the hippocampi of the restrained group were significantly higher than those in the control group.After electroacupuncture,11β-HSD1 expression in the hippocampus increased further and lasted 3 h. Conclusion Electroacupuncture at the Zusanli acupoints (ST36) can increase 11β-HSD1 expression in the hippocampus of stressed rats, and this adjustment may be related to the HPA axis' negative feedback function.

Objective To investigate the incidence of pregnancy complicated with myelodys- plastic syndrome(MDS)and the influence between pregnancy and MDS and to discuss the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of pregnancy complicated with MDS.Methods Six pregnant patients complicated with MDS from Jan,1992 to Dec,1997 were retrospectively analysed and literature was reviewed.Results The incidence of pregnancy complicated with MDS was 0.66‰ and 24% of women with MDS were pregnant women.Therapeutic induction of labor was done in 2 cases because of severe MDS.Two complicated with PIH,and three complicated with postpartum haemorrage in six cases.Blood transfusion was necessary in all cases for treatment of severe anemia in pregnancy. MDS may remit after delivery.The use of corticosteroid before termination of pregnancy and prophy- lactic antibiotics after delivery is important.Conclusions It is important to prevent haemorrage and infection in the management of pregnaney complicated with MDS.

Purpose:To investigate the expression of E cadherin and nm23 in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and its clinical significance. Methods:The expression of E cadherin and nm23 were detected by SP immunohistochemical technique in 70 paraffin embedded tissue specimens of PTC.Results:The positive rates of E cadherin and nm23 were 44.3%(31/70) and 62.9%(44/70) respectively. There were close relations between the expression of E cadherin and nm23 and pathological grade, TNM stage and lymph node metastasis, and no difference could be found between the expression of E cadherin and nm23 and size of tumor, sex and age of patients. There was distinct correlation between the expression of E cadherin and nm23. The metastatic rate in the group, which the expression of E cadherin and nm23 were both positive, was 12%(3/25), but in the all negative group, the metastatic rate was 75%(15/20). There was significant difference between the two groups ( P

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of urine transferrin in the type 2 diabetic nephropathy and primary chronic glomerular disease. Methods The level of TRF and UAER in the urine of 114 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), 108 patients with CGD and 30 healthy patients was measured by rate nephelometry and analyzed. Results Urine TRF significantly increased earlier than ALB at the early stage of DN; Linear correlation was found by correlation analysis between the level of TRF in urine level and the quantity of protein in urine. Conclusion TRF in urine obviously increased at the early stage of DN. It was more sensitive than UAER to reflect the early renal injury of DM. A statistically significant correlation was found between the TRF level and the quantity of protein in the urine.
