OBJECTIVE:To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of oxymatrine membrane,rhEGF gel respectively com-bined with Yunnan baiyao for postoperative cervical wound after LEEP. METHODS:300 patients with cervical intraepithelial neo-plasia(CIN)Ⅱ and Ⅲ were divided into group A,B,C(100 cases in each group)based on CIN grading and stratification and random sampling in each stratification. After conventional LEEP,patients in group A were cleaned the wound by 0.9% Sodium chloride injection,spraying Yunnan baiyao powder,once only after surgery;patients in group B were additionally given recombi-nant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) on the basis of group A,once every week after surgery,for 3 weeks;patients in group C were additionally given oxymatrine membrane on the basis of group A,1 tablet every evening after surgery,for 2 weeks. Postoperative bleeding,bleeding duration,rebleeding and duration after postoperative bleeding stopped,postoperative drainage du-ration,the incidence of adverse reactions in 3 groups were observed. RESULTS:The patients of postoperative bleeding,bleeding time ≥7 d and rebleeding after stopping bleeding in group B were significantly lower than group A;the incidence of bleeding time ≥7 d in group C was significantly lower than group A,the proporition of postoperative drainage duration for less than 7 d was significantly higher than group A,for 8-13 d was significantly less than group A;early wound healing rate in group B and group C were significantly better than group A,with statistical significances (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in above-mentioned indexes in group B and group C(P>0.05),and there were no obvious adverse reactions in 3 groups. CONCLU-SIONS:Oxymatrine membrane and rhEGF gel respectively combined with Yunnan baiyao have better healing than Yunnan baiyao alone,do not increase the incidence of adverse reactions,while there is no significant difference in oxymatrine membrane and rhEGF gel.

BACKGROUND:Segmental bone defects resulting from osteoporotic fractures, trauma, congenital bone dysplasia and progressive bone disorder are very common, and bone tissue engineering provides a new approach to bone defect repair. Growth factors related to bone tissue engineering bone have been reported a lot and have achieved some results. How to mimick the natural timing of different growth factors with different bioactivities has become the current hotspot in bone repair. OBJECTIVE: To review the new developments in vascular endothelial growth factor and bone morphogenetic protein in bone tissue engineering. METHODS: The first author searched CNKI (1990/2015) and Medline database (1990/2015) for related articles using the key words of “osteogenic factors, angiogenic factors, tissue engineering bone, bone repair, vascularization, vascular endothelial growth factor, bone morphogenetic protein, sequential release, seed cels, cytoskeleton” in Chinese and English, respectively. Mechanism of action and research direction about vascular endothelial growth factor and bone morphogenetic protein were summarized. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Totaly 313 papers were searched initialy, and finaly 87 papers were enroled in result analysis. The results show that different growth factors play different roles in bone repair. Vascularization and osteogenesis are the most important processes in bone repair. The osteogenic factors play an important role in maintaining bone structure and bone formation. The angiogenic factors can provide oxygen and nutrients for tissue growth, differentiation and functionalization. The combination of osteogenic and angiogenic factors has a better osteogenic effect than osteogenic or angiogenic factors used alone. However, the most important problem is how to control the exogenous osteogenesis and the release dosage of angiogenic factors in bone repair.

Objective:To study the antitumor effect and mechanism of cocultured CIK cells modified with IL-24 gene and autologous DCs on HL-60 cells in vitro.Methods:DCs and CIK cells were prepared routinely from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells ( PBMC).IL-24 gene was transferred into CIK cells via electroporation.The cells obtained were named CIK-IL24.RT-PCR and ELISA were used to evaluate expression of IL-24 gene in transfected CIK cells.The phenotypic changes of CIK cells were identified by flowcytometry analysis.The concentration of IFN-γ and TNF-α in supernatant of CIK was determined by ELISA.FCM was used to determine the cytotoxicity of cocultured CIK cells modified with IL-24 gene and autologous DCs against HL-60 cells.Results:Eukaryotic expressing plasmid pcDNA3.0-IL24 was transferred into CIK cells successfully via electroporation.The expressing rate of CD3~+、CD3~+CD56~+ cells had no significant change in CIK cells.However,the rate of CD4~+CD25~+ cells was significantly decreased compared with that of the control group.Expression of adhesion molecules CD54,CXCR4 were significantly increased on CD3+CD56+ cells.CIK-IL24 cells produced markedly higher levels of IFN-γ and TNF-α as compared with the CIK cells.By comparison with non-transfected CIK cells co-cultured with DCs,transfected CIK cells co-cultured with DCs had a significantly higher lytic activity against HL-60 cells.Conclusion:IL-24 gene modification can enhance the anti-tumoral immunity of CIK cells,the mechanism of which might be related to the increased secretion of IFN-γ,TNF-α,up-regulation of adhesion molecule expression,and reduction of the rate of CD4~+CD25~+ cells in CIK cells.

Objective To study the antitumor effect and mechanism of co-cultured cytokine-induced killer(CIK) cells and autologous DC modified with IL-24 gene on A549 cells in vitro. Methods DC and CIK cells were prepared routinely from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC). Recombinant adenovirus vector pAdEasy-1-pTrack-CMV-IL-24 was extracted from DH5α, it was lineared with Pac I and transfected into A293 cells, and then the IL-24 recombined adenovirus(Ad-IL-24) was obtained. Ad-IL-24 was used to infect DC. The cells obtained were named DC-IL-24. RT-PCR and ELISA were used to evaluate the expression of IL-24 gene in transfected DC. The phenotypes change of DC were identified by flow cytometry analysis, the concen-tration of IL-12 and TNF-α in supernatant of DC were determined by EIJSA. The ability of CIK producing per-forin was measured by homolysis method. FCM was used to determine the cytotoxicity of cocultured CIK cells and autologous DC modified with IL-24 gene to A549 cells. Results We obtained the high titre of Ad-IL-24.IL-24 gene was transfered into DC successfully via Ad-IL-24. The green fluorescence was observed on DC by fluorescence microscope. The expression rate of CD80, CD83, HI.A-DR, CD40, CXCR4 on DC-IL-24 was sig-nificantly increased compared with that of the control group. DC-IL-24 produced markedly higher levels of IL-12 and TNF-α as compared with DC. DC-IL-24 can enhance the ability of CIK cells producing perforin. On com-parison with non-transfected DC co-cultured with CIK cells, transfected DC co-cultured with CIK cells had a sig-nificantly higher lytic activity against A549 cells. Conclusion IL-24 gene modification can enhance the anti-tu-moral immunity of DC. The mechanism of which might be related to the increased secretion of IL-12 and TNF-α, up-regulation expression of co-stimulatory molecules and MHC Ⅱ class molecules on DC, promoting the acti-vation and maturation of DC, and then enhancing CIK cells to generate specific anti-tumoral immunity.

Ammonium perchlorate (AP), mainly used as solid propellants, was reported to interfere with homeostasis via competitive inhibition of iodide uptake. However, detailed mechanisms remain to be elucidated. In this study, AP was administered at 0, 130, 260 and 520 mg/kg every day to 24 male SD rats for 13 weeks. The concentrations of iodine in urine, serum thyroid hormones levels, total iodine, relative iodine and total protein, and malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activity in thyroid tissues were measured, respectively. Our results showed that high-dose perchlorate induced a significant increase in urinary iodine and serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), with a decrease of total iodine and relative iodine content. Meanwhile, free thyroxine (FT4) was decreased and CAT activity was remarkably increased. Particularly, the CAT activity was increased in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggested that CAT might be enhanced to promote the synthesis of iodine, resulting in elevated urinary iodine level. Furthermore, these findings suggested that iodine in the urine and CAT activity in the thyroid might be used as biomarkers for exposure to AP, associated with thyroid hormone indicators such as TSH, FT4.

Poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride)(PDDA) was chosen to disperse multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs) to prepare the stable PDDA-MWCNTs aqueous dispersion. Then, the positively charged PDDA-MWCNTs composite and negatively charged choline oxidase(ChOx) were employed to fabricate multilayer films on platinum(Pt) electrodes by layer-by-layer self-assembly technique, the anti-interferential film of Nafion was dropped at the end of the last multilayer films. The results showed that MWCNTs were evenly dispersed within the PDDA films and the multilayer films of (PDDA-MWCNTs)_n could improve the catalytic current response to choline significantly with the increased number of the multilayer films. The optimum assembly number was 6. The choline biosensor fabricated showed good linear correlation from 5×10~(-6)-2.5×10~(-4) mol/L with a detection limit of 2×10~(-6) mol/L(S/N=3), and the sensitivity was 21.97 mA/mol with a response time of 6.6 s, the RSD was less than 5%(n=3). Moreover, the biosensor exhibited an excellent anti-interferential property and a good stability.

Objective: To investigate the effects of Chinese herbal drug-containing serum, prepared by administration of Chinese herbal medicine for activating blood (Xiongshao Capsule, XS) or for activating blood and detoxifying (Xiongshao Capsule plus Huanglian Capsule, XSHL) in rats, on cell viability, oxidative damage and apoptosis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) induced by oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL). Methods: Thirty-two rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group, positive control group (simvastatin 1.8 mg/kg), activating blood (XS, 0.135 g/kg) group, and activating blood and detoxifying (XS Capsule 0.135 g/kg and Huanglian Capsule 0.135 g/kg, XSHL) group. Corresponding drugs were continuously administered to the rats for 7 days and then drug-containing serum was harvested 1 hour after the last administration. HUVECs isolated from newborn children by collagenase digestion were stimulated by ox-LDL (100 μg/L) and incubated with corresponding drug-containing serum for 24 hours. Untreated HUVECs were also used as a normal control. The morphology and structure of HUVECs were observed by an inverted microscope. Cell viability was measured by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium method, and cell membrane damage was determined by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) leakage. Activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) was examined by spectrophotometry, and content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in the cell lysate was examined by thiobarbituric acid assay. HUVECs were stained with Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate and propidium iodide and analyzed on a flow cytometry to determine apoptosis. Results: Compared with the normal HUVECs, the cell viability and the activity of SOD were significantly decreased while the content of MDA and apoptosis rate were significantly increased after 24-hour ox-LDL stimulation (P<0.01, P<0.05). Simvastatin-, XS-, and XSHL-containing serum significantly promoted the ox-LDL-stimulated HUVEC viability and inhibited early apoptosis (P<0.01, P<0.05), while had no significant effect on LDH leakage. Simvastatin-containing serum and XS-containing serum also showed significant decrease in MDA content and increase in SOD activity, while XSHL-containing serum showed no significant effects. There was no significant difference between the XS-containing serum group and the XSHL-containing serum group. Conclusion: Both sera containing XSHL and XS show protective action against the oxidative damage and apoptosis of HUVECs induced by ox-LDL.
