1.Significance of Expression of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor and Neuron Apoptosis in Brain of Rats with Repeated Febrile Seizures
Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2004;0(09):-
Objective To explore the changes of brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) after repeated febrile seizures (FS).Methods Fifty-one male SD rats were divided into 3 groups randomly: normal group (NC group,n=14) ,hyperthermic group (HC group,n=19),FS group(n=18). FS were induced by hot water bath.The level of BDNF in hippocampus homogenate were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the expression of BDNF were measured by immunohistochemistry.The apoptosis of the brain cells were determined by terminal deoxynucleotide mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL).The results were analysed with the software of SPSS 13.0.Results The level of BDNF in hippocampus in FS group(89.90?12.51) ng/g was significantly higher than that in NC group(54.43?18.92) ng/g and HC group(64.09?15.03) ng/g (Pa
2.Significance of Expression of Nuclear Factor-?B in Brain Tissues of Rats with Repeated Febrile Seizures
Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2006;0(24):-
Objective To observe the expressions of nuclear factor-?B(NF-?B)in brain tissue of rats with repeated febrile seizures(FS)and explore its significance in brain injury of rats with FS.Methods Fifty-one male SD rats were divided into 3 groups according to random number method:normal group(n=14),hyperthermic group(n=19),FS group(n=18).FS models were induced by placing rats in warm bath;the rats without FS after warm-bath were assigned as hyperthermic group ;the normal controls received no treatment.The expression of NF-?B was measured by immunohistochemistry.The apoptosis of brain tissue was determined by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase biotin-dUTP nick end labeling(TUNEL).SPSS 13.0 software was applied for statistical treatment.Results In FS group,the number of the NF-?B positive neuron increased much more than that of hyperthermic group and normal group(Pa
3.Effects of Repeated Hyperthermia and Febrile Seizure on Somatostatin Content in Brain of Rats and Its Signi-ficance
Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 1986;0(02):-
Objective To explore the change of somatostatin(SS)in brain areas of juvenil rats with repeated febrile seizures(FSs)and hyparthermia.Methods Fifty-one male SD rats were divided randomly into 3 groups:normal group(NC group,n=14),hyperthermic group(HC group,n=19)and febrile seizure group(FS group,n=18).FS were induced by placing rats in a bath of water.The expressions of SS in DG,CA3,CA1 and CTL were measured by immunohistochemistry.The level of SS in hippocamps of these rats were determined by radioimmunoassay.Results The results of immunohistochemistry shew in HC group,the number of the SS positive neuron were increased in DG(21.10?2.51),CA3(10.60?2.41)in FS group,which was less than that in NC group(10.50?2.12,6.90?2.02),there was no difference in CA1 and CTL.The result of Radioimmunoassay:the level of SS in hippocampus in HC group[(53.74?7.56)ng/g]was higher than that in FS group[(39.54?7.74)ng/g](P0.05).Conclusion There is different change of somatostatin content in some brain areas of rats with repeated febrile seizure,which suggest that SS can increase the affectivity of seizure and promote the seizure.

Nowadays, nanotechnologies have shown wide application foreground in the biomedical field of medicine laboratory tests, drug delivery, gene therapy and bioremediation. However, in recent years, nanomaterials have been labeled poisonous, because of the disputes and misunderstandings of mainstream views on their safety. Besides, for the barriers of technical issues in preparation like: (1) low efficacy (poor PK & PD and low drug loading), (2) high cost (irreproducibility and difficulty in scale up), little of that research has been successfully translated into commercial products. Currently, along with the new theory of "physical damage is the origin of nanotoxicity", biodegradability and biocompatibility of nanomaterials are listed as the basic principle of safe application of nanomaterials. Combining scientific design based on molecular level with precision control of process engineering will provide a new strategy to overcome the core technical challenges. New turning point of translational medicine in nanotechnology may emerge.

The present study aimed to investigate the effect of Glomus versiforme and Trichodema harzianum on the growth and quality of Salvia miltiorrhiza continuous cropping under field conditions. The field plot experiment was conducted, these active components in the plant were analyzed by HPLC, the root diseases incidence rate of S. miltiorrhiza determined by observation and counting, and relative parameters were measured. The data was statistically processed. The result showed that inoculation of G. versiforme and combined inoculation of G. versiforme with T. harzianum significantly decreased the root diseases incidence rate of S. miltiorrhiza, and combined inoculation of G. versiforme with T. harzianum was better than other treatments. All treatments improved accumulation of active ingredients in root. Inoculation of G. versiforme and combined inoculation of G. versiforme with T. harzianum significantly increased the content of salvianolic acid B and cryptotanshinone of root (P < 0.05), Inoculation of G. versiforme, T. harzianum and combined inoculation of G. versiforme with T. harzianum significantly enhanced the content of tanshinone I and tanshinone II(A) of the root (P < 0.05). It may conclude that inoculation of G. versiforme and combined inoculation of G. versiforme with T. harzianum can effectively reduce the root diseases incidence of continuous cropping S. miltiorrhiza, and improve the quality of S. miltiorrhiza.
