OBJECTIVE:To select the optimum conditions for germination test of Sophora alopecuroides seed,and to provide reference for formulating seed test rule and standardization of S. alopecuroides. METHODS:S. alopecuroides seeds were soaked in 98% H2SO4 for 30 min and 35 ℃ warm water for 29 h,and then treated under different temperature conditions (15 ℃,20 ℃, 25℃and 30℃),different germination beds(on paper,between paper,on sand,in sand)and different light conditions(2 000 lx lighting 16 h,dark). Optimal germination condition was screened by using germination rate,germinative potential and germinative index as indicators. S. alopecuroides seeds were cultured under this condition for 7 days,and then germination rate was determined. RESULTS:Different temperatures had no significant effect on germination rate,but influenced germinative potential and germina-tive index;those indicators reached maximal value at 20 ℃. Different germination beds affected each indicator,and under condi-tion of on sand,those indicators were the highest. Light treatment had no significant effect on germination indicators. Under suit-able condition,the seed sprouted since first day of germination bed treatment;germination rate was more than 90% on second day,and reached maximal value on fifth day and didn’t increase any longer. CONCLUSIONS:The suitable condition of seed ger-mination was soaking in 98% H2SO4 30 min+35 ℃ warm water for 29 h,on sand under light at 20 ℃. Initial count on second day of germination bed treatment and final count on forth day were analyzed statistically as well as germination rate. This method can be used as standard quality test of the seed of S. alopecuroides.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the rational clinical prophylactic use of antibiotics. METHODS:The cases in whom the clinical prophylactic use of antibiotics between 2006 and 2007 in our hospital showed failure in efficacy were monitored to analyze the cause of failure,meanwhile the clinical samples were sent for culture,isolation,identification and drug susceptibility tests as well as drug resistance analysis. RESULTS:Cephalosporins,Quinolones,Penicillins,Cefhalosporins + enzyme inhibitor were more commonly used antibiotics in our hospital,with drug resistance rates at 57.21%,65.14%,68.63%,and 18.81% respectively. Among the total 240 cases monitored,the prophylactic use of antibiotics totaled 877 times,of which,388 (44.24%) were non-indicated drug use,459 (52.34%) showed drug resistance,286 (32.61%) involved improper drug choice,and 42 (17.50%) showed dual infection. CONCLUSION:The clinical prophylactic use of antibiotics in our hospital is far from perfect; therefore,it is urgent to tighten control on the standard prophylactic use of antibiotics.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has definitely clinical effect in treating hyperlipidemia, but the action mechanism still need to be explored. Based on consulting Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2010), all the lipid-lowering Chinese patent medicines were analyzed by associated rules data mining method to explore high frequency herb pairs. The top three couplet medicines with high support degree were Puerariae Lobatae Radix-Crataegi Fructus, Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma-Crataegi Fructus, and Polygoni Multiflori Radix-Crataegi Fructus. The 20 main ingredients were selected from the herb pairs and docked with 3 key hyperlipidemia targets, namely 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMG-CoA reductase), peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-α (PPAR-α ) and niemann-pick C1 like 1 (NPC1L1) to further discuss the molecular mechanism of the high frequency herb pairs, by using the docking program, LibDock. To construct evaluation rules for the ingredients of herb pairs, the root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) value between computed and initial complexes was first calculated to validate the fitness of LibDock models. Then, the key residues were also confirmed by analyzing the interactions of those 3 proteins and corresponding marketed drugs. The docking results showed that hyperin, puerarin, salvianolic acid A and polydatin can interact with two targets, and the other five compounds may be potent for at least one of the three targets. In this study, the multi-target effect of high frequency herb pairs for lipid-lowering was discussed on the molecular level, which can help further researching new multi-target anti-hyperlipidemia drug.

Objective To study expression of CD147 in rabbit VX2 tumor tissues after transarterial embolization with hydroxyapatite nanoparticles loaded with lipiodol.Methods Thirty rabbits implanted with tumor tissue of cell line VX2 were divided into three groups: control group, lipiodol group, and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles loaded with lipiodol group. The transarterial embolization was performed superselectively via gastroduodenal artery of rabbits, and each rabbit in control group was infused with 1ml normal saline, that in lipiodol group was infused with 0.3ml lipiodol per kg, and o.3ml hydroxyapatite nanoparticles loaded with lipiodol per kg for that in the last group.Results of treatment were detected by using CT on day 3 after operation. After two weeks, three-step Immunohistochemical technique(S-P) and Western blot technique were used to investigate the expression of CD147 in tumor tissues of the 3 groaps. Results Immunohistochemical results showed that CD147 was expressed on membrane of tumor cells in all three groups. The positive ratios of CD147 in three groups were (31.33?5.88)%,(75.63?4.44)%, and (80.03?5.59)% respectively, while the expression of CD147 in tumor tissues in control group was significantly different from others(P0.05). Protein half-quantitation detecting of CD147 with Western blot technique displayed that expression of CD147 in tumor tissues increased after embolization in last two groups as compared to that of control group(P

Objective To transplant the umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells(UCMSCs) derived from human umbilical cord into cisterna magna of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy(HIE) rat model,and to observe their survival,proliferation and differentiation in the rat brain.Methods UCMSCs were isolated from human umbilical cord of babies delivered after full-term normal cesarean section,and labeled by bromodeoxyuridine(BrdU).Pregnant rats were randomly divided into experimental group(n=6) and control group(n=1).HIE models were built by ligating both sides of the uterine arteries of full-pregnant rats(21 days) in experimental group rats for 15 minutes.The neonatal rats in experimental group were divided into stem cells group(n=24) and PBS group(n=19) at random.The labeled UCMSCs were injected into cisterna magna of the rats in stem cells group,while PBS was injected into the rats of PBS group.In 1,2,3 and 4 weeks after transplantation,the brain tissue section slides were immunohistochemically stained with antibodies against BrdU,Nestin,neuron specific enolase(NSE) and glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP),and thionin.Control group with normal delivery was tested as concurrent control.Results At 1 week after transplantation,BrdU,Nestin,NSE and GFAP positive cells were found in the hippocampal dentate gyrus of the rats in stem cells group rats.The number of BrdU-positive and Nestin-positive cells increased(Pa0.05).The NSE-positive and GFAP-positive cells gradually increased from 1-4 weeks post transplantation and comparisons between groups had statistical significance(Pa

AIM: To explore the frequency of drug injection of alloxan diabetes on the established model of rabbit.METHODS: Thirty-six healthy rabbits, weighing 2-2.5kg, were randomly divided into one time drug injection group (group A, n=12), two times drug injection group (group B, n=12) and three times drug injection group (group C, n=12). Each rabbit was injected with a total amount of 150mg/kg of alloxan. Fasting blood glucose was measured. The success rate and death rate of each group were also calculated.RESULTS: The success rate of diabetic rabbit model in group B was higher than that in group A (P<0.01) and its death rate was lower than that of group A (P<0.01); the success rate of diabetic rabbit model in group C was highest and the death rate was the lowest in three groups(P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Multiple administration of alloxan can improve success rate in establishing diabetic rabbit model with decreased death rate and increased stability.
