Objective To investigate the effects of bisphenol A on SD rat Sertoli cell function and the injury mechanism. Methods SD rat Sertoli cells were treated with bisphenol A at different doses,and the control group,solvent control group were set. Sertoli cell proliferation,cell cycle and PCNA,Vimentin protein expression. were observed. Results The survival rate of Sertoli cells in the treated groups was significantly lower than the control group (P

Objective To establish a sensitive, reliable and simple method for determination of selenium(Se) in salt. Methods The salt samples were dissolved in water and added hydrochloric acid, thiourea, placed for 30 minutes under the room temperature, then used HG-AFS to determine Se. Results The linear range was 0.5-20 ?g/L, the detection limit was 0.06 ?g/L, RSD

[Objective]To detect the effect of constant magnetic field on metal ion Co2+,Cr3+ induced TNF-? secreted by human mononuclear cells,and to search a method for prevention and treatment of aseptic loosening. [Methods]CoCl2 powder and CrCl3 powder were dissolved in the asepsis injecting water. Mononuclear cells from human peripheral blood,were taken and cultured with Co2+,Cr3+ ions in different magnetic field of 10Gs,100 Gs,1000Gs for 12,24 and 48 hs. There were nine groups:control group,Co2+ group,Cr3+ group,Co2+andCr3+ with various intensities of constant magnetic field,respectively.ELISA method was applied to detect tumor necrosis factor (TNF-?) in serum via the absorbance (A).[Results]Co2+ and Cr3+ ions stimulated human mononuclear cell to secrete TNF-? (P

Objective To observe the effects of pentabrominated diphenyl ether (BED-99) on the histological structure and function of the thyroid of rats. Methods Forty SPF, SD rats aged 4 weeks, were randomly divided into 4 groups according to the body weight,10 in each group. The rats were treated with BED-99 at the doses of 30 mg/kg,60 mg/kg,120 mg/kg,respectively, through gavage. The rats in the control group were received the equal volume of corn oil. The levels of serum hormone were determined,the change of histopathology,histochemistry and follicular cells ultramicroscopic structure were observed at 15 days of exposure to BED-99. Results Serum levels of thyroxin (FT4),triiodothyronine (FT3),decreased gradually with dose increase at 15 days of exposure to BED-99.However,thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels increased. The thyroid follicular epithelium hyperplasia was aggravated gradually with dose increase. Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) positive cells increased constantly with dose increase. The activities of thyroperoxidase (TPO) and succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) of the treated rats increased significantly compared with the controls,and appeared color darkened. The rough endoplasmic reticulum of the thyroid follicular cells changed to saccate under the electron microscope,whereas nucleolus,cell membrane and mitochondria were not injured. Conclusion BDE-99 may damage the histological structure and function of the thyroid, the mechanism may be that BDE-99 down-regulates the thyroglobulin synthesis and then induces thyroxin level decrease which causes an increase of TSH through feedback.

Objective To detect the level of Th1 and Th2 type cytokines of peripheral blood CD+3 T lymphocytes in patients with breast cancer, in order to find out the laboratory evidence of tumor immunotherapy. Methods The peripheral blood lymphocytes were stimulated by stimulator in order to enhance expression of cytokines. Specific fluorochrome-conjugated monoclonal antibody combined with antigen. Cytokines were detected by flow cytometry and ELISA. Results Both the cytokines secreted by CD+3 T lymphocytes and serum cytokines showed that the level of Th1 type cytokines such as interferon-?(IFN-?), interleukin-2(IL-2), interleukin-12(IL-12) were significantly lower in patients of breast cancer than those of normal controls. The level of Th2 type cytokines such as interleukin-4(IL-4), interleukin-10(IL-10) were higher in patients of breast cancer than those of normal controls. There was significant difference between them. The level of tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF-?)in patients were significant higher than normal control. Conclusion Th1/Th2 was imbalance in mammary cancer. Th1 type cytokines were inhibited, and Th2 type cytokines were relatively enhanced, so Th1/Th2 shift to Th2. It maybe the mechanism of tumor arising and transferring by immune escaped from immunosurveillance.

In this paper,300 bacteria strains and 31fungi strain were isolated from Qinghai plateau.The numbers of cellulose degradation organisms in soil is 2.6?10 5/g. A strain Trichoderma koningii No.0143 which produces cellulase was isolated from 11 fungi in the east area in QingHai,its FPA activity was 15u/g. It can be used in enzymatic feed.

Objective In order to evaluate the quality and performance of chlorine dioxide disinfectant,it is necessary to develop a set of methods to determine the components in chlorine dioxide disinfectant.Methods Iodometry,malonic acid iodometry,improved malonic acid iodometry and five-step iodometry were employed to determine the components including ClO_2, Cl_2,ClO_2~-,and ClO_3~-in chlorine dioxide disinfectant,the advantages and disadvantages of the test methods were compared.Results Using iodometry,the liquid stabilized chlorine dioxide products activated by hydrochloric acid,the content of ClO_2 was 20.23 mg/ml that was accord with the content which was marked in the product label.Using malonic acid iodometriy,the liquid stabilized chlorine dioxide contents of ClO_2 was 19.99 mg/ml,Cl_2 was 0.35 mg/ml,in which a little chlorine was detected.Using improved malonate iodometry and five-step iodometry,the activation rates of the liquid stabilized chlorine dioxide products were 88.0% and 75.6% respectively,ClO_2 and ClO_2~-in the liquid stabilized chlorine dioxide products could be distinguished.Conclusion Active chlorine dioxide and residual ClO_2~-can be detected by using iodometriy and improved malonic acid iodometry,but iodometriy and malonic acid iodometry can not.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the rationale of combined evisceration for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer.MethodsThe clinical data of 137 cases with advanced gastric cancer treated with combined evisceration from 1994 to 2001 were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsEleven cases underwent combined hepatectomy, 25 cases with splenectomy, 13 with transverse colectomy, 15 with cholecystectomy, 4 with auxiliary adrenalectomy, 38 with splenectomy plus distal pancreectomy, 13 with pancreatoduodenectomy, 18 with other adjecent evisceration. The operative mortality rate was nil. The 1-,3-,5-year survival rate were 60.2%,26.3% and 16.6% respectively.Conclusions Combined evisceration for treating advanced gastric cancer was feasible and yielded a longer survival.
