Nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) fingerprint of Rhodiola rosea medicinal materials was established, and used to distinguish the quality of raw materials from different sources. Pulse sequence for water peak inhibition was employed to acquire 1H-NMR spectra with the temperature at 298 K and spectrometer frequency of 400.13 MHz. Through subsection integral method, the obtained NMR data was subjected to similarity analysis and principal component analysis (PCA). 10 batches raw materials of Rhodiola rosea from different origins were successfully distinguished by PCA. The statistical results indicated that rhodiola glucoside, butyl alcohol, maleic acid and alanine were the main differential ingredients. This method provides an auxiliary method of Chinese quality approach to evaluate the quality of Rhodiola crenulata without using natural reference substances.

Objecttve To determine whether non-adherent bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (NA-BM-MSC) can differentiate into neuron-like cells in vitro and in vivo,especially in ischemic brain of mice. Methods NA-BM-MSC of mouse were indueed with conditioned medium containing epidermal growth factor and basic-fibroblast growth factor and demonstrated by immunocytochemistry for the expression of neuron specific nuclear protein and neurofilament-200. NA-BM-MSC from β-galactosidase transgenic mice constitutively expressing β-galactosidase were transplanted into the mice model of middle cerebral artery occlusion.LacZ staining and immunobistochemistry staining were performed to detect the survival,distribution and the differentiation of the donor cells in the ischemic brain. Results NA-BM-MSC can be induced into neuron specific nuclear protein and neurofilament-200 positive cells in vitro.LacZ staining showed that NA-BM-MSC can survive in ischemic brain and express β-galactosidase.Also,numbers of the neuron specific nuclear protein positive cells in β-galactosidase-positive cells were detected in the ischemic brain with double immunohistochemistry staining. Conclusions NA-BM-BMC can be induced to differentiate into neuron-like cells in vitro,and also can differentiate into neuron-like cells in ischemic brain tissue of the mice.

Objective To investigate the effects of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) preconditioning on oxidative damage in alveolar epithelial type Ⅱ (AE- Ⅱ) cells in rats. Methods The primarily cultured AE- Ⅱ cells isolated from male SD rats were randomly assigned to one of 6 groups (n = 8 each): control group (group C),H2O2 group and 4 different concentrations of HO-1 preconditioning group (group H1-4). The cells were continuously incubated for 5 h in group C. H2O2 0.5 mmol/L was added and the cells were incubated for3 h in group H2O2.In group H1-4, HO-1 0.01, 0.10, 1.00 and 10.00 μmol/L were added and the cells were incubated for2 h, then H2O2 0.5 mmol/L was added and the cells were incubated for 3 h. After the end of incubation, the cell morphology was observed under inverted phase contrast microscope, the AE- Ⅱ cells were counted, and the cell viability was determincd. Results The most AE- Ⅱ cells were adherent and round, had homogeneous cytoplasm, and the cytoplasm contains granular materials in group C and H2-4, while the vacuoles appeared in AE- Ⅱ cells and the cell debris appearecd in the supernatant in group H2 O2 and H1 . Compared with group C, the cell count and cell viability were significantly decreased in group H2 O2 and H1 (P < 0.05). Compared with group H2 O2 and H1, the cell count and cell viability were significantly increased in group H2-4 (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the cell count and cell viability between group H2O2 and H1, and among group H2~4(P > 0.05) .Conclusion Preconditioning with 0.10-10.00 μmol/L HO-1 can reduce oxidative damage in rat AE- Ⅱ cells.

AIM:To compare the efficacy and safety of intravitreal ranibizumab to those of triamcinolone acetonide ( TA ) injection for the treatment of macular edema secondary to central retinal vein occlusion ( CRVO) .
METHODS:This retrospective study included 40 eyes of 40 patients with macular edema associated with CRVO. Twenty patients 20 eyes were treated with intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide (1mg, 0. 1mL), the other 20 patients 20 eyes accepted intravitreal ranibizumab (0. 5mg, 0. 05mL). The change of best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) , central macular thickness ( CMT ) , and intraocular pressure ( IOP ) before treatment and at 1, 2wk, 1, 2,3,6mo post-injection in the two groups were observed.
RESULTS:BCVA was improved at 1, 2wk, 1, 2,3,6mo post-injection in the TA group (P<0.05) and ranibizumab group ( P<0. 05 ). No significant difference was found between the two groups ( P > 0. 05 ). CMT decreased significantly within each group ( P < 0. 05 ), and no significant difference between groups was found ( P >0.05). In the TA group, the IOP was significantly higher at 2wk and 4wk than before treatment (P<0. 05). In the ranibizumab group, no elevated IOP was observed at 1, 2wk, 1, 2,3,6mo (P>0. 05). However, the IOP at 1mo was significantly higher in the TA group than that in the ranibizumb group (P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION:Intravitreal ranibizumab is an effective and safe treatment method for macular edema secondary to CRVO. It can effectively improve BCVA and reduce CMT without ocular and systemic complications compared with intravitreal TA.
