The macroporous resin separation technology has been mainly applied in the enrichment of saponins, flavonoids, alkaloids and other ingredients, and used in the removal of heavy metal impurities and pesticide residues in recent years. This paper focuses on the synthesis of the new-type macroporous adsorption resin LKS-11 according to the molecular structure characteristics of procymidone. Specifically, the selective absorptive property and other advantages of macroporous resin were utilized to analyze the procymidone removal efficiency in ginseng extracts from different sources. The type of macroporous resins, absorptive property and desorption conditions were observed respectively by static and dynamic adsorption methods to determined the optimum process conditions. According to the results, LKS-11 showed a good absorptive property to procymidone in ginseng extracts and provided a theoretical basis for studies on the removal of procymidone residues from ginseng extracts by using macroporous adsorption resin. Because of no secondary pollution on samples, low production and operation costs, high procymidone removal efficiency and high product recovery rate, this method is suitable to be applied in production.

Objective To prepare a bionic artificial bone scaffold using a room temperature three dimensional (3D) printing technique and evaluate its biocompatibility and bioactivity in vitro.Methods A room temperature 3D printing technique was applied to fabricate 3D bionic artificial bone scaffolds using collagen/hydroxyapatite.The physico-chemical structure,porosity and mechanical strength of the scaffolds were assessed.The extract liquid of scaffolds was cocultured with bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) to evaluate the toxicity of scaffolds.There were 3 experimental groups:blank control with no scaffolds,printed scaffolds group and non-printed scaffolds group.The condition of BMSCs on the scaffolds was observed via scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and immunostaining.3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and SEM were applied to monitor the proliferation of BMSCs on the scaffolds.At last,alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and mRNA expression levels of osteogenesis-related genes were detected to assess the osteoinductive property of the scaffolds.Results The 3D printed scaffolds fabricated in the present study were characterized by highly interconnected pores which were controllable and even in size.The cross section of the scaffolds presented an irregular honeycomb-like microstructure.The porosity of printed 3D scaffolds (71.14% ± 2.24%) was significantly higher than that of non-printed scaffolds (59.04% ±2.98%) (P < 0.05).The physico-chemical structures of the materials were preserved after printing without additional cytotoxicity.The MTT results at 7 and 14 days revealed that the printed scaffolds had a significantly more cell numbers than the non-printed scaffolds(P < 0.05).SEM showed that the BMSCs adhered well onto the printed scaffolds and proliferated and migrated through the pores.Compared with the blank control,the printed scaffolds showed obviously better osteogenic outcomes.Conclusion The 3D bionic artificial bone scaffolds of collagen/hydroxyapatite manufactured by a room temperature 3D printing technique can provide a good extracellular matrix for BMSCs to proliferate and differentiate.

Aim To explore the role of endoplasmic re-ticulum stress( ERS) in Astragaloside Ⅳ-induced car-dioprotection against ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats. Methods A model of myocardial ischemia 30 min followed by 120 min reperfusion was made by liga-ting coronary artery in male Wistar rats. Rats were di-vided randomly into 4 groups: sham group, ischemia/reperfusion group, ERS inhibitor TUDCA group, As-tragaloside Ⅳgroup. Myocardial samples were collect-ed from the risk zones during ischemia and reperfu-sion, ERS was determined by measuring levels of glu-cose regulated protein 78 ( GRP78 ) , an established marker of ERS with Western blot. Immunofluorescence study was used to test GRP78 intensity with laser scan-ning confocal microscopy, TTC method was used to measure the infarct size,hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the changes of morphological changes of myocardium. Results There was no statistical difference in GRP78 expression during ischemia com-pared to the sham group, but was markedly increased upon reperfusion. Astragaloside Ⅳ could mimic TUD-CA and significantly decreased the GRP78 expression, reduced infarct size and improved the morphology of myocardial tissue with a significant statistical difference compared with the control group ( P<0. 05 ) . Conclu-sions ERS is induced upon reperfusion but not during ischemia in isolated rat hearts. Astragaloside Ⅳ pre-vents myocardial reperfusion injury presumably by the inhibition of ERS.

The development of laparoscopic total mesorectal excision (TME) has been promoting the better understanding of the anatomy in pre-rectal space for surgeons.If the dissection in pre-rectal space was inappropriate and entered into wrong anatomic planes,it would be easier to cause the proper fascia of rectum incomplete and damage the neurovascular bundies,and reduce the radical surgery outcome and induce urinary and sexual dysfunction,finally,affect the prognosis in patients.For surgical approach in pre-rectal space,the author proposed:Based on the related literatures,transecting the Denonvilliers' fascia (DVF) when it's definitely thickened after cutting the peritoneum 0.5 cm anterior to peri-toneal reflection,entering and dissecting in the space between DVF and the proper fascia of rectum,and forming a typical Three-line feature,including the cutting line of peritoneal reflection,the proximal and distal cutting lines of DVF,which can serve as the mark line and mark plane of the entrance to pre-rectal space.Not only this approach can keep the proper completeness of rectal fascia,but also it maximally reserves the DVF.Here,this article discussed the embryonic origins and anatomic characters of DVF,the structures of neurovascular bundles,dissection in the pre-rectal space,surgical approach and clinical outcomes between DVF and laparoscopic TME.

Objective To study the molecular mechanism of interleukin 25 (IL-25)expression in the lung of asthmatic rats.Methods The expressions of IL-25 mRNA and protein in the lungs were detected by Real-time PCR and ELISA,respectively.The levels of IL-25 mRNA and protein were detected by ovalbumin (OVA)in human bronchial epithelial cells.And the transcription factors that regulate IL-2 5 expression were explored through site prediction.Results The expressions of IL-25 mRNA and protein in the lung of OVA-induced asthma rats were significantly increased during animal experiments.Cell experiments showed that OVA could increase the expression of IL-2 5 in human bronchial epithelial cells in a dose-dependent manner,and OVA could upregulate the expression of transcription factor AP1.AP1 was found in the promoter region of IL-25 by site prediction.The AP1 inhibitor (T5224)significantly reduced the expression of IL-25 in OVA-induced human bronchial epithelial cells. Conclusion The molecular mechanism of IL-25 expression induced by OVA in asthma is related to the increase of transcription factor AP1 .

Abstract: Objective To explore the spatial epidemiological characteristics of severe cases hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in Guangxi, China, from 2014 to 2018, and to provide a basis for identifying the high-risk regions as well as the prevention and control of severe cases of HFMD in Guangxi. Methods Spatial-temporal scanning analysis, global and local spatial autocorrelation analysis were used to analyze the spatial clustering of HFMD. The trend surface analysis was used to evaluate the spatial distribution trend of HFMD. Results From 2014 to 2018, the incidence and severe case fatality rates of HFMD were 3.89/100 000 and 4.23%, respectively. Monte Carlo scanning analysis showed that the first cluster region was Cenxi City, the second cluster was mainly concentrated in northwest of Guangxi, and the aggregation time was mainly concentrated in April to May and August to October. The global spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that the severe HFMD was significant clustering distribution, and the Moran's I coefficients of the sever cases, severe morbidity and severe case fatality rate were 0.088, 0.118, 0.197, respectively (P<0.05). Local spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that hotspots of severe HFMD cases were concentrated in the southern Guangxi, mainly in Lingshan County. Anselin local Moran's I clustering and outlier analysis indicated that 5 high-high (H-H) clustering regions for fatality were Lingshan, Pubei, Zhongshan, Zhaoping and Pinggui County. There were 6 high-high (H-H) clustering regions for severe incidence rate, namely Lingshan, Qinnan, Lingyun, Youjiang, Bama Yao Autonomous and Pinggui County, and 1 high-low (H-L) clustering region, Cenxi County. The trend surface analysis showed that the overall number of severe cases of death decreased from east or west to the middle, and increased from north to middle, and then decreased to south. Conclusions Severe HFMD cases in Guangxi have obvious spatial-temporal clustering, and the hop spots are mainly concentrated in southern Guangxi. The prevention and control of HFMD in areas with high incidence of severe cases should be strengthened to reduce the burden of HFMD cases.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the correlation between coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (CAD) and periodontal disease (PD).
METHODForty-five patients with CAD (CAD group) and 40 patients without CAD (control group) were compared with their pathological changes of periodontal tissues and inflammatory markers [high sensitive C reactive protein (hsCRP), interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)].
RESULTSUnivariate analysis showed that the prevalence of PD was 84.44% in CAD group and 22.50% in control group (P < 0.01). The levels of hsCRP, IL-1beta, and TNF-alpha were (5.75 +/- 1.26) mg/L, (10.32 +/- 2.96) ng/L, and (9.17 +/- 2.14) ng/L in CAD group and (1.13 +/- 0.73) mg/ L, (2.87 +/- 1.45) ng/L, and (5.84 +/- 1.96) ng/L in control group (P < 0.01). Gingival index and plaque index were statistically different between two both groups (P < 0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that in addition to pulse pressure and low density lipoprotein cholesterol, periodontal disease index was a higher risk factor of CAD. Its relative risk was 1.217 (95% CI was 1.120-1.805, P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONPD can cause CAD. The improvement of public oral health plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of CAD.
