Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are multi-functional growth factors,they are found not only inducer of new bone formation,but also have critical roles in cell growth,differentiation,migration,apoptosis,embryogenesis and organogenesis.Studies show that BMPs are closely related to tumorigenesis and metastasis,which have important practical values in tumour therapy.

AIM:To establish HPLC method for the determination of amodiaquine in human plasma.METHODS: Amodiaquine and internal standard(hydroxychloroquine) were analyzed on C18 column(150 mm ×4.6 mm, 5 μm) with methanol: water:triethylamine: orthophosphoric acid (21:77.5:1:0.5 )as mobile phase at the flow rate of 1.0 mL · min-1The UV detector was set at 294 nm. RESULTS: The retention times of amodiaquine and internal standard were 5.82, 8.56 min, respectively. The calibration curve was linear in the range from 10 to 1 000 μg ·L- 1 ( r = 0.999 8, n = 9 ). The limit of quantitation was5 μg· L-1. The extraction recovery was between 75.5 % and 82.7 %, and the methodological recovery was between 97.0 % and 104.8 %. The intra-day and inter-day RSD were less than 6.0 % and 7.5 %, respectively. CONCLUSION: This HPLC method is simple, sensitive and suitable for pharmacokinetic study of amodiaquine.

Objective To analyze the disposition characteristic of LGT fingerprints and the related fingerprints for advanced gastric carcinoma patients when the LGT fingerprints changing. Methods SELDI and CM10 protein chip was used to detect the serum protein fingerprints of 81 cased of advanced gastric cancer patients. After 1 year follow-up, all the patients were detected by SELDI again. According to the expression condition of LGT fingerprints, the patients were divided into 4 groups: A group(LGT changing from negative to positive) 25 cases, B group (LGT changing from positive to negative) 15 cases, C group (LGT fingerprints keeping negative) 29 cases and D group (LGT fingerprints keeping positive) 12 cases. The influencing factor should be rejected. And the remaining fingerprints were LGT fingerprints' subtypes and therelated fingerprints. The different proteomic fingerprints were analyzed by Biomarker Wizard 3.1 Software.Results After rejecting the influencing fingerprints, the up-regulation fingerprints in A group were 11473, 11821, 11664, 11409, 11552 and 11947 (M/Z), and no down-regulation fingerprints. In B group, 3264 was upregulation, and 6523, 11509, 11669, 11413, 11351 and 6483 were down-regulation. In C and D group, there was not statistically differential protein fingerprint. Conclusion M/Z up-regulating fingerprints including 11473, 11821, 11664, 11409, 11552 and 11947 can be regarded as the subtype of LGT when it changing from negative to positive; down-regulating including 11509, 11669, 11413 and 11351 can be regarded as the subtype of LGT when it changing from positive to negative; 3264 up-regulating and 6523 and 6483 downregulating can be regarded as the related fingerprints when LGT changing from positive to negative; and when LGT keeping negative or positive in patients with advanced gastric cancer, there was no differential protein fingerprints.

The pancreatic enzyme-II type collagenase digestion method was adopted for primary culture of osteoblasts, inoculation and passage. They were identified by alkaline phosphatase dye-liquor. N-butanol extract fractions from different processed products of Cibotium barometz were prepared. The above osteoblasts were jointly cultured with protocatechuic acid, protocatechuic aldehyde, kojic acid and the mixed control liquid of the above three substances, and their proliferation was detected by CCK-8. Various n-butanol extract fractions from different processed products of C. barometz showed a significant proliferative effect on osteoblasts in the order of the wined > the heated > the salted > the sand-heated and wined system > the alcohol-processed > the steamed > the crude. The q test showed no significant difference among sand-heated, alcohol-processed and steamed C. barometz, no significant difference between heated and salted C. barometz. Various control substances also showed a certain proliferative effect on osteoblasts in the order of the mixed control > protocatechuic aldehyde > protocatechuic acid > kojic acid. The q test showed no significant difference between protocatechuic aldehyde and protocatechuic acid. All of n-butanol extract fractions from different processed products of C. barometz showed a significant effect on osteoblast proliferation, of which wined C. barometz showed the best effect. All of phenolic compounds such as protocatechuic aldehyde, protocatechuic acid and kojic acid showed a significant proliferative effect on osteoblasts.

OBJECTIVETo observe the changes of proximal femoral geometry after femoral neck fracture treated with THA, analyze the existent of differences and their manifestation.

METHODSAll patients of femoral neck fracture (FNF) and osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH) were treated with THA by the same operating team from January to December of 2014, including 22 patients with FNF (11 males and 11 females,with age from 44 to 83 years old (means 66.18 ± 11.47) and 23 patients with ONFH (12 males and 11 females, with age from 19 to 68 years old (means 51.91 ± 11.76). After THA, height of femorals, offsets, osteotomy position and adjusting modes were measured and the statistic analysis was done.

RESULTSAfter THA, all patients were measured. Decreased femoral height, offsets and lower osteotomy positions were found in patients with FNF than those with ONFH, and 3 kinds of adjustments because of lower-positional osteotomy were found.

CONCLUSIONAfter THA, lower-positional osteotomy and decreased femoral offsets may occur on patients with FNF. The adjustments caused by lower-positional osteotomy may lead to negative results.
