The aim of this study was to synthesize 1-(5-(hydroxymethyl)-4-methyl-3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-pyrazin-2-yl) guanidine (mucunaguanide),a pyrazinone alkaloid compound extracted from the seed of Stizotobium cochinchinensis.Starting from benzyloxy acetaldehyde,following four steps in reaction including condensation,cyclization,substitution and hydrogenation reaction,mucunaguanide was synthesized with total yield of 27.9％,and purity of more than 97.5％.Structures of all the intermediates and target compound were confirmed by IR,1H NMR and MS.This synthetic process was characterized with raw materials available,simple in operation with much milder reaction conditions,and was an ideal method of synthesis of this compound.

Objective To assess the clinical value of high-frequency electrocautery in the treatment of massive hemorrhage of presacral venous plexus. Methods The clinical data of 8 patients with presacral venous hemorrhage treated with high-frequency electrocautery from February 2005 to March 2008 were analyzed. Once the presacral venous hemorrhage happened, the bleeding site was pressed with a gauze or finger and the accumulated blood was aspirated. Then, while simultaneously withdrawing the gauze or finger over the bleeding sites, high-frequency electrocautery was applied with a power of 80-100 W to coagulate all the bleeding sites. Results High-frequency electrocautery was used to stop bleeding in the 8 patients, and no electrocautery related complica-tions occurred postoperatively. Conclusions High-frequency electrocautery for massive hemorrhage of presacral venous plexus is simple, efficient and safe.

Objective To compare the therapeutic effect between Kirschner wire- loop plating and clavicular hook plate in the treatment of distal clavicle fractures. Methods Forty- two patients with type Neer Ⅱ distal clavicle fracture were selected, among whom 23 patients were treated with Kirschner wire- loop plating (group A), and 19 patients were treated with clavicular hook plate (group B). The operative time, fluoroscopy time, length of incision, intra- operative bleeding volume and hospitalization time etc were recorded. The patients were followed up at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after operation. The American shoulder and elbow society (ASES) score was evaluated, and the therapeutic effect was evaluated by Karlsson standard. Results The operative time and fluoroscopy time in group B were significantly lower than those in group A: (63.5 ± 12.4) min vs. (71.5 ± 11.1) min and (3.6 ± 1.9) s vs. (4.8 ± 1.5) s, but the intra- operative bleeding volume, length of incision and cases of postoperative shoulder pain in group A were significantly lower than those in group B:(91.5 ± 18.5) ml vs. (108.7 ± 32.5) ml, (6.6 ± 0.7) cm vs. (11.3 ± 0.9) cm and 2 cases vs. 14 cases, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05 or <0.01). There was no statistical difference in hospitalization time between 2 groups (P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in ASES score at 6 weeks and 3 months after operation between 2 groups (P>0.05); but the ASES score at 6 and 12 months in group A was significantly higher than that in group B: (89.9 ± 12.6) scores vs. (79.7 ± 12.6) scores and (96.1 ± 4.8) scores vs. (86.1 ± 12.4) scores, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05 or <0.01). There was no statistical difference in the cases of good and excellent at 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months after operation (P>0.05);but the cases of good and excellent at 12 months in group A was significantly more than that in group B:23 cases vs. 13 cases, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusions Kirschner wire- loop plating provides a new treatment option for type Neer Ⅱ distal clavicle fractures. It is conducive to decrease the incidence of shoulder pain and improve the range of motion of should joint. Besides, this technology has advantage of small incision, relatively simple operation steps and small damage to the surrounding soft tissues of the acromioclavicular joint. It may be superior to the clavicular hook plate.

Objective To study the biodistribution of 131 I-2'-deoxy-1-β-D-arabinofuranosy1-5-iodouracil (FIAU) in the rat middle cerebral artery occlusion model and the expression of thymidine kinase (TK) gene in brain tissue after gene-modified stem cell transplantation,and thus evaluate the possibility of further noninvasive monitoring of stem cell transplantation therapy in cerebral infarction.Methods Adenovirus recombinant Ad5-TK-intemal ribosome entry site-brain derived heurotrophic factor-enhanced green florecent protein(IRES-BDNF-EGFP) carrying TK-IRES-BDNF gene was prepared.Cerebral infarction model was established in rats by intraluminal middle cerebral artery occlusion with nylon monofilament.Gene modified bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were transplanted via intraparenchymal route,lateral ventricle,carotid artery and tail vein,respectively.The normal rats were used as controls.131 I- FAU was prepared to be the tracer for biodistribution study and the ％ ID/g was calculated based on measurement of the tissue radioactivity counts.The expression of TK gene was evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR (QR-PCR) and Western blot analysis.Data were analyzed with independent-samples t-test,one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test,and Pearson linear correlation test.Results The ％ ID/g of infarcted brain tissue in the intraparenchymal group was 0.124 ± 0.013,which was significantly higher than that in lateral ventricle group (0.052 ±0.004),carotid artery group (0.061 ±0.002),tail vein group (0.059 ±0.005) and control group (0.005 ±0.001) (t =2.913 - 5.652,all P＜0.05),while there were no statistically significant differences among the other route transplanted groups ( t =0.694 - 1.448,all P ＞ 0.05 ).The differences of ％ ID/g between the infarcted and contralateral sides of brain tissue in all transplanted groups were statistically significant (t =9.004 - 15.734,all P ＜ 0.05 ),while there was no statistically significant difference of this parameter between both sides of brain tissue in control group (t =1.511,P =0.182).The expression of TK gene in intraparenchymal group was significantly higher than other groups (t =7.482 -12.371,all P ＜0.05).The expression levels ofTK gene on QR-PCR showed a positive correlation with ％ID/g of the brain tissue ( r =0.971,P ＜ 0.001 ).Similarly,the ratio of TK/β-actin by the Western blot analysis correlated with the ％ ID/g ( r =0.899,P =0.002 ).Conclusion Intraparenchymal route may be the way of choice for cell transplantation therapy of cerebral infarction.If suitable radionuclide tracer is available,PET or SPECT may be potentially used for noninvasive monitoring of stem cell transplantation in cerebral infarction in vivo.

Objective To study in vitro the effects of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) on the proliferation and differentiation of cultured myoblasts,and to explore the cellular and molecular mechanisms behind any therapeutic effect of LIPUS.Methods Myoblasts were isolated from the skeletal muscles of mice and cultured in vitro.Treatment and control groups of proliferating and differentiating myoblasts were defined.The treatment groups were exposed to LIPUS at 1.5 MHz and a spatial and temporal average intensity of 30 mW/cm2,for 20 min daily,the proliferation group for 6 consecutive days and the differentiation group for 4 consecutive days.The cell proliferation kinetics of the proliferation group were analyzed using flow cytometry.The expression of myogenic regulation factor MyoD and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in the proliferation group,and of myosin heavy chain (MHC) in the differentiation group were examined by immunofluorescent staining.Myoblast fusion indexes were analyzed.Results In the LIPUS treatment groups the proliferating myoblasts had a higher ratio of active cells in the G2 and S phases (19.30％ ±5.14％,37.00％ ±8.72％),compared with the controls (10.33％ ± 1.53％,25.00％ ±4.36％),and the proliferation index increased significantly.The expression of HO-1 was up-regulated,while MyoD staining was unchanged.During the induction of differentiation,the myoblasts of the treatment group fused into smaller myotubes and the myoblast fusion index (18.73％ ± 6.81％) was significantly lower than that of the control group (37.52％ ± 11.23％),while MHC expression did not change markedly.Conclusion LIPUS can promote myoblast proliferation while inhibiting their differentiation,but it does not affect the cells' myogenic properties.HO-1 may be involved in the regulation process.
