The intertubercular grooves of 212 humerus were studied. The statistical results showed that the depth of intertubercular grooves is highly correlated with the slope of the medial wall of the groove (r=0.116, p=0.05, lineal regression: =50.01+9.04x). It means that the deeper the groove the bigger the slope of the medial wall is, and the shallower the smaller. Their functional relationship has practical significance. The normal surface contour of the intertubercular groove is the important condition that keeps the long head tendon working normally. Therefore internal or external causes, e. g. fracture of the surgical neck, hyperplasia of the bone in aged people, may alter the normal anatomical relation of the intertubercular groove, which precipitated to tendosynovitis of the biceps. By observation of the compactness of the surgical neck cortex in three different levels, we found that it is in a transitional zone of from thin to thick, which agrees with the explanation of why fracture occurs frequently at the surgical neck.

Cobalt or chromium alloys are the most common clinical materials of prosthesis and there have been some investigators at home and abroad have done related researches about the genotoxic effects of cobalt and chromium ions and nanoparticles. People have certain understanding about the mechanism of production of ions as well as their influence on cells. However, chromium or cobalt nanoparticles genotoxicity related research is still in its preliminary stage. In each stage, the mechanisms, from creating of the particles, through entering cells, until finally causing genotoxic, are still contained many problems to be solved. This article reviews the research progress in mechanisms of production and genotoxic effects of cobalt, chromium ions and nanoparticles.

AIM: To investigate the activation dynamics and the intracellular localization of p38 protein kinase in Raw264.7 cells after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation.METHODS: Protein kinase assay and immunogold electron microscope technique were used to check the activation dynamics and distribution of p38 MAPK in Raw264.7 cells before and after LPS stimulation. RESULTS: The kinase assay results showed that a marked increase in p38 activity was detected 15 min after LPS treatment, and reached maximal activity 30 min post stimulation, then dropped down and got closed to the pre-stimulated level 2 h later. The optimal LPS concentration for treatment was 100 ?g/L. The immunogold electron microscope data showed that p38 spread evenly in every part of the cytosol of the non-stimulated and EGF stimulated Raw264.7 cells, such as endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, lysosome, while the golden granules intensity in the cytosol area decreased and in the nuclear area increased significantly after LPS stimulation.CONCLUSION: p38 MAPK moves to the nuclei of Raw264.7 cells on account of stimulation by LPS.
