Objective To develop a fluorescence signal activatable multifunctional molecular probe with theranostics function through combining ultrasmall gold nanorods(UGNRs) with fluorescein,and to evaluate its therapeutic effect on photothermal therapy (PTT) in breast cancer cells.Methods The UGNRs were synthesized by the one-pot seedless method,then the functionalized modification of UGNRs were conducted using cysteamine.Finally,the activatable ultrasmall gold nanorods (AUGNRs) were synthesized by amide condensation of —NH2 of cysteamine and —COOH of carboxylated fluorescein CyS.The cell uptake ability and GSH-mediated imaging ability of AUGNRs were studied using breast cancer 4T1 cells.4T1 cells co-cultured with AUGNRs were irradiated with 808 nm excitation light,and the PTT effects were assessed by MTT colorimetric staining and calcein-AM/PI staining.Results The AUGNRs were synthesized successfully,which could be uptaken by 4T1 cells quickly and efficiently,and could achieve intracellular glutathione (GSH) triggered fluorescence recovery.No obvious cytotoxicity of AUGNRs to 4T1 cells was observed in the co-cultivation.Moreover,obvious PTT effects could be induced by 808 nm laser,which could effectively kill 4T1 cancer cells.Conclusion The fluorescence signals of AUGNRs can be induced by intracellular GSH,and tumor cell destruction can be achieved by 808 laser-excitated PTT effects.

Objective To evaluate the impairment of large and small fibers of peripheral nerves in patients with diabetes mellitus according to the current perception threshold ( CPT ) comparing with nerve conduction studies ( NCS) and sympathetic skin response ( SSR).Methods Fourty-nine diabetic patients were enrolled from August to December 2014 in Tianjin Third Central Hospital.The CPT was examined by the Neurometer?CPT/C in diabetic patients and 23 healthy subjects.Electrical stimulations of 2 000, 250 and 5 Hz were delivered respectively to the first toe distal section , the bottom of the knee-patella middle line and the index finger distal section.NCS and SSR were performed in diabetic patients.The patients were divided into normal NCS ( NCSN) group and abnormal NCS ( NCSA) group according to the results of the nerve conduction.According to the results of SSR , the patients were divided into normal SSR ( SSRN) group and abnormal SSR ( SSRA ) group.Results In three testing areas , the CPT in NCSN group had no significant difference compared with control group , which was tested by different frequency;NCSA group had increased CPT (393.5 ±68.4, 213.1 ±39.7, 172.5 ±52.8, 221.6 ±48.0, 91.7 ±33.1, 76.2 ±27.8, 274.0 ±48.4, 120.1 ±26.6, 75.3 ±21.9) compared with control group (278.1 ±53.6, 128.9 ±46.7, 78.7 ±28.7, 149.3 ±54.6, 52.3 ±23.2, 41.9 ±18.7, 214.2 ±46.0, 96.0 ±29.3, 48.6 ±17.0; F=36.277, 40.827, 50.301, 10.240, 12.837, 13.832, 11.749, 5.559, 17.412,all P<0.01).At the first toe section, CPT decreased in SSRN group ( 91.0 ±29.0, 55.2 ±21.3 ) compared with control group (128.9 ±46.7, 78.7 ±28.7;F=23.071, 22.646, both P<0.05), which was tested by the currents of 250 Hz and 5 Hz frequency.In three testing areas , the SSRA group had increased CPT compared with control group , which was tested by different frequency.Conclusion Hyperesthesia as an early manifestation of small fiber damage can be detected by CPT in diabetic patients; CPT has no advantage in the evaluation of large fiber damage.

Objective To investigate the effects of Siwu decoction on the learning and memory abilities in mice with blood deficiency and the related mechanism.Methods The mice were randomly divided into five groups:normal control group,model control group,high-,medium-,and low-dose group of Siwu decoction.Blood deficiency mouse model was established by continuously cuttingtailand bleedingin model control group,high-,medium-,and low-dose group of Siwu decoction.The mice in high-,medium-,and low-dose group were intragastrically administrated with Siwu decoction of 2.5,5.0,10.0 g·kg-1 for 14 days,respectively.The erythrocyte counts (RBC),hemoglobin (HGB),red blood cell hematocrit (HCT) were detected before modeling,7 and 14 days after administration.The spatial learning and memory abilities were assessed using the T maze test.The spontaneous activities were assessed using locomotors activity detector.The levels of erythropoietin (EPO) content in serum and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in hippocampal tissue were detected by enzyme-linked immunousorbent assay.Results 5.0 and 10.0 g·kg-1Siwu decoction could increase RBC,HGB,HCT on the 7th and 14th day,2.5 g.kg-1Siwu decoction could increase RBC,HCT on 14th day,and each dosage of Siwu decoction could significantly increase the spontaneous activities of model mice with blood deficiency on the 7th and 14th day as compared with model control group (P <0.05 or P <0.01).Compared with model control group,the number of errorsin T Maze test were decreased significantly in high-,medium-,and low-dose groups (P < 0.01).And the Siwu decoction had a tendency to reduce the hippocampal AChE levels,but when compared with the model control group there were no statistical differences (P > 0.05).Conclusion Siwu decoction is benefit formemory and spatial learning in mice with blood deficiency,which may be related with higher serun EPO and lower hippocampal AChE expression.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effects of oxymatrine (OMT) on JAK/STAT iteral in rat lung tissue with sepsis.
METHODFifty-six male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups: sham operation group, model (CLP) group, CLP + OMT high, middle, low-dose groups (52, 26, 13 mg x kg(-1), vena caudalis bolus), and positive control group (dexamethasone, 10 mg x kg(-1), vena caudalis bolus) to observe the effects of oxymatrine on the ratio between wet weight of the lung and dry weight of the lung (W/D) and pulmonary coefficient, gross changes and pathological changes examined with lightmicroscope in the pulmonary tissue. Changes in JAK2 and STAT3 activity in the pulmonary tissue were determined by immunohistochemical method. Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels in pulmonary tissue were determined by radioimmunoassay.
RESULTOMT could decrease significantly the JAK2 and STAT3 positive reaction and activity in the pulmonary tissue (P < 0.05). TNF-alpha and IL-6 levels in pulmonary tissue homogenate decreased markedly (TNF-alpha decreased 36%, 26%, 16% and IL-6 decreased 46%, 39%, 24% on CLP + OMT 52, 26 mg x kg(-1) and 13 mg x kg(-1) groups. P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). OMT could decrease the ratio between wet weight of the lung and dry weight of the lung and the pulmonary coefficient, improve the condition of pulmonary hyperemia, edema, infiltrate of heterophil granulocyte and emerge of asphyxial membrane, and alleviate the inflammatory reaction. And the results were equal to those of the positive control (CLP + dexamethasone) group.
CONCLUSIONOMT can inhibit JAK/STAT iteral activity and reduce the expression of proinflammatory factor (TNF-alpha, IL-6) and antagonize the lung injury in a rat model of sepsis.
