We developed the monoclonal antibodies against nucleoprotein (NP) of Newcastle disease virus (NDV),and established a double antibody sandwich ELISA method for quantitative determination of NP antigen of NDV (NDV NP ELISA).The recombination NP protein derived from strain F48E9 of NDV were prepared and used to immunize BLAB/c mice.The mouse splenic cells from immunized mice were fused with SP2/0 cells to generate monoclonal antibodies (mAb).The NDV NP specific mAbs were paired to establish a double antibody sandwich ELISA method.The performance of the NDV NP ELISA was evaluated,including specificity,sensitivity,precision,accuracy and linearity.The correlation between the ELISA and PFU virus titer was analyzed by regression analysis method.Two monoclonal antibodies 3C10 and 4E7 were selected to establish double antibody sandwich ELISA for NP antigen of NDV.The linearity and performance of the NDV NP ELISA was characterized.The detection linearity fell in the range of 0.015-0.250 μg/mL (R2 =0.997 4).The detection limit of the assay was 0.015 μg/mL.The recovery was between 88.4% and 106.01%;the variation coefficient was below 3.4%.In testing of 50 NDV virus samples,this assay performed well and correlated comparably with PFU virus titer (R2 =0.920 9).The NDV NP ELISA for quantitative detection of NDV is a reliable quantifiable assay for detection of NDV NP protein;it provides a new approach for rapid and quantitative detection of Newcastle disease virus.

Objective To investigate the change in NF-κB activity in astrocytes in spinal dorsal horn in a rat model of neuropathic pain and the underlying mechanism. Methods Sixteen male SD rats aged 2-3 months weighing 220-280 g were randomly divided into 2 groups ( n = 8 each) : sham operation group (group S) and CCI group. Neuropathic pain was induced by chronic constrictive injury (CCI) . Right sciatic nerve was exposed and 4 loose ligatures were placed on the sciatic nerve at 1 mm intervals with 4-0 chromic catgut. In group S the right sciatic nerve was exposed but not ligated. The paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) to von Frey filament stimulation and paw withdrawal latency (PWL) to radiant heat stimulation were measured at 1 d before (baseline) and 7 d after operation. The animals were then killed and the lumbar segment of the spinal cord (L_(4-6)) was removed. The expression of NF-κB in the astrocytes in spinal dorsal horn was determined by immuno-histochemistry. Results PWT and PWL to mechanical and thermal stimuli were significantly decreased after operation as compared with the baseline before operation in group CCI. The number of NF-κBp65 immunoreaction positive cells in the spinal dorsal horn on the operated side was significantly larger in group CCI than in group S. Conclusion NF-κB signal transduction pathway in the astrocytes in the spinal dorsal hom may be involved in neuropathic pain.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of isopimaric acid ( ISO), the BKCa channel activator, on cognitive function and synaptic plasticity in APP/PS1 mice. Methods Alzet osmotic pump was loaded with ISO or DMSO only and assembled with ALZET Brain Infusion Kit III. The cannula was implanted into the lateral ventricle of 4-month-old male APP/PS1 mice or matched wild type ( WT) mice. Two weeks later, open field test and Morris water maze were conducted. Paired-pulse facilitation ( PPF) and TBS-induced long-term potentiation ( LTP ) were recorded in CA1 region of hippocampus. Results The open field test showed that there was no significant difference among the four groups in spontaneous activities and vertical plane movement distance within 30 minutes. Floor plane movement distance was significantly greater in APP/PS1+DMSO group than that in WT+DMSO group(P<0.05) . Compared with the WT+DMSO group, APP/PS1+DMSO group had significantly longer escape latency from the third to fifth day and lower percentage of time spent in the target quadrant ((43.27±3.24)% vs (34.19±2.56)%) and the number of crossing through the platform ((4.25±0.66)times vs (1.93±0.33)times)(P<0.05). Compared with the APP/PS1+DMSO group, the APP/PS1+ISO group had significantly shorter escape latency from the fourth to fifth day and higher percentage of time spent in the target quadrant ((46.16±3.51)%) and the number of crossing through the platform ((3.41±0.34) times) (P<0.05). PPF in APP/PS1+DMSO group significantly reduced compared with that in WT+DMSO group at 30-50ms interstimulus interval(P<0.05). PPF in APP/PS1+ISO group((224.50±13.79)%) was significantly augment compared with APP/PS1+DMSO ((174.99 ±6.68)%) group at 40 ms interstimulus interval (P<0.05). The LTP at 60 min post-TBS was significantly smaller in the APP/PS1+DMSO group ((135.19±1.32)%) than that in the WT+DMSO group ((172.17± 4.15)%)(P<0.001). The LTP of the APP/PS1+ISO group((160.48±1.19)%) became significantly in-creased compared with that in the APP/PS1+DMSO group(P<0.001).Conclusion BKCa channel activator ISO improve the learning and memory function of APP/PS1 mice by promoting PPF and increasing LTP to recover synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus.

OBJECTIVETo explore the promoting effects of cograft of auto-microskin and allo-dermal matrix on burn wound healing.
METHODSForty-six patches of full skin loss wounds were made in the backs of 6 small white swines. Auto-microskin and meshed acellular allo-dermal matrix were simultaneously prepared. The 46 wounds were averagely divided into test (T) and control (C) groups. The wounds in T group were covered with auto-microskin and allo-dermal matrix (1:4) and split-thick allo-porcine skin. While the wounds in C group were grafted with autoskin and allo-dermal matrix.
RESULTSThe skin survival rate exhibited no difference between C and T groups (P > 0.05). There was similar histological exhibition in the two groups after skin grafting. The structure of collagen fibres appeared integrated, clear with regular arrangement and steady diameter at 8 - 20 post-operative weeks. Simultaneously, it was revealed by histological examination that normal vascular structure could be identified in the grafted skin and that inflammatory reaction ameliorated gradually and that epithelium combined well with dermis. It was also found that the epidermal papillar across the basement membrane fixed well to allo-dermis. The skin appeared smooth, elastic and functioned well at 5 months after skin grafting.
CONCLUSIONThe grafted skin survived well after the cograft of auto-microskin and allo-dermal matrix, which might be ideal covering material for the major deep burn wound healing.
