Objective:To observe the influence of emotional stress on the temporomandibular joint(TMJ) of SD rats. Methods:Standard animal model of emotional stress was created by emotion communication emergency box technique in 30 SD rats and foot-shocked in another 30. Control rats were 30 without treatment. The microstructure and ultrastructure of the disc surface, condylar surface and external pterygoid muscle were observed 1, 3 and 5 weeks after emotional stress treatment. Results:Obviously pathological changes were observed in the experimental animals, especially at 3 weeks, involving the fissures on the disc and condylar surface, the collagen fibers were disordered. Electron microscopy observation showed that condylar collagen was exposed. The mitochondria edema and vacuolar degeneration in the external pterygoid muscle were found.At 5 weeks, the condylar cartilage started to recover. Conclusion:Long term emotional stress may lead to pathological changes of the temporomandibular system. The changes can be partly recovered after a certain time of adaption of TMJ.

Objective To observe the formation process with 3.0 T MRI dynamically, and to discuss the feasibility of molecular imaging studies on restenosis. Methods The models were built with balloon (2.0 F) injury which were separated into restenosis group (n=48) and control group (n=48). Zero h, 24 h, 1 week, 2 week, 4 week and 8 week after surgery, 3.0 T MRI scanning (T1WI, T2WI, PDWI) was performed respectively, the vascular of injured side were obtained for HE staining to observe the pathological changes, to analyze the measurement of neointimal area (IA), intimal proliferation index (IHI), lumen area (LA) and stenosis rates, correlation between HE staining measurements and MR images were analyzed. Two weeks after the injury, the restenosis model of rats (n=8) and control rats (n=8) were injected ultrasmall superparamagntiec iron oxide (USPIO,1 mmol/kg) by tail vein, respectively. 3.0 T MRI scanning (T2WI) was underwent at 0 h and 24 h after injection, the change of the arterial wall T2 signal was quantitatively analyzed and the relative signal intensity (rSI) and relative change rate (rSIC) of the vessel wall were calculated. Reference to MRI images, corresponding line segments were taken for Perl's blue staining and immunohistochemically staining of macrophages. One-way ANOVA, Pearson and t test were used for statistical analysis. Results In the early?term (0 h,24 h), the wall and surrounding high signal organization boundary was not clear, there was no obvious morphological change of the lumen. In the medium?term (1, 2 week), signal of the injured wall increased with different extents, wall thickening and luminal narrowing was progressive, the inwall was coarse. In the later?term (4, 8 week) wall signal got slightly lower, wall thickness, lumen change were not significant, the wall area and LA were significantly associated with pathologic measurement result (r value were 0.978, 0.732; P<0.05). In the control group, signal of wall and lumen morphological change were not significant among the different time points. IA were (0.131 ± 0.011) mm2, (0.588 ± 0.017) mm2, (1.061 ± 0.033) mm2, (1.192 ± 0.034) mm2;1, 2, 4, 8 week after injury, respectively, IHI were 0.235 ± 0.022, 0.578 ± 0.013, 0.715 ± 0.011, 0.737 ± 0.009, respectively, stenosis rates were (5.586 ± 0.987)%, (25.395 ± 1.112)%, (40.019 ± 1.298)%, (41.890 ± 0.951)%, respectively, difference between groups were statistically (P<0.05). In the control group, there was no significant differences of medium area, luminal stenosis and neointimal formation respectively at different time points (P>0.05). rSI was 1.582±0.051 after the injection of USPIO, then 24 h after injection of USPIO, T2 signal of the vessel wall was reduced significantly, rSI was 1.260 ± 0.088, rSIC was (-20.249 ± 6.489) % with statistical difference (t value was 8.924,P<0.05). But there was no statistical difference in control rats (P>0.05). Perl's staining combined with immunohistochemical staining confirmed that the iron particles were taken by the macrophage's phagocytosis just in the neointimal. Conclusion 3.0 T MRI is capable of demonstrating the vessel wall and lumen changes dynamically, and the measurements are correlated with pathological results. USPIO can be consumed by macrophages in the neointimal, resulting in T2 signal of the vessel wall decreased significantly.

Objective To analyze the occurrence and prognosis of congenital heart disease interventional therapy related arrhythmias, and to discuss the prevention and treatment. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the occurrence and prognosis of congenital heart disease interventional therapy related arrhythmias among a total of 223 cases admitted for in terventional therapy between February 2014 to January 2015. Resu1ts 8 cases developed different degree and nature of arrhythmias after the interventional therapy. Among these cases, 3 of them had arrhythmias after ASD occlusion, including one was frequent atrial contraction, one was paroxysmal atrial tachycardia, and one was sinus bradycardia with accelerated junctional rhythm. All of them converted back to sinus rhythmm spontaneously from 2-3 hours to maximum 1 week after operation. 4 cases had arrhythmias after VSD occlusion, including one case of ventricular tachycardia, one case of Ⅰ° degree atrioventricular block who recovered spontaneously after surgery, one case of Ⅲ° degree atrioventricular block and one case of intermittent complete left bundle branch block who retruned to sinus rhythmn after 1 week of symptomatic treatment. One case had ventricular fibrillation after pulmonary valve balloon dilatation and was treated by defibrillation and temperany pacing to convent to sinus. Conc1usions Arrhythmias is a common complication of congenital heart disease after interventional therapy, and most of them are temporary and transient changes. However, once serious arrhythmias happened, the success rate of surgery and postoperative curative effect can be directly effected, or may even lead to mortality.

Objective:To evaluate and compare electroacupunctures (EA) with different parameters and moxibustion at different temperatures influencing the activation of mast cells (MC) in Tianshu (ST 25) regions of visceral hyperalgesia model rats. Methods:Rats (except for model group) respectively accepted 1 mA or 3 mA EA or moxibustion at 43 or 4 to℃℃stimulate Tianshu (ST 25) points after randomization of the fifty visceral hyperalgesia model rats, and then were compared with that in model and normal groups. Number, degranulation numbers, degranulation rates in Tianshu (ST 25) regions MC of rats in each group were observed using toluidine blue staining. Abdominal withdrawl reflex (AWR) score was used to evaluate the rat visceral hyperalgesia reactions. Results:Compared with the normal group and the model group, MC numbers (P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.01,P<0.01), degranulation numbers and degranulation rates (P<0.01,P<0.01, P<0.05,P<0.01) of Tianshu (ST 25) MC in regions tissues in 43℃ and 4℃ moxibustion groups, and 1 mA and 3 mAEA groups all increased significantly. Compared with the model group, AWR scores were significantly lower in 43℃ and 4℃ moxibustion groups, and 1 mA and 3 mAEA groups under the stimulation of 20 mmHg, 40 mmHg, 0 mmHg or 80 mmHg colorectal distension (CRD) (P<0.05 in 1 mA and 3 mA EA groups under the stimulation of 20 mmHg,P<0.01 in the other groups). AWR scores in 43℃ and 4℃moxibustion groups under the stimulation of 20 mmHg, 40 mmHg, 0 mmHg or 80 mmHg CRD were not significantly different from those in the normal group (allP>0.05); AWR scores in 1 mA EA group under the stimulation of 0 mmHg or 80 mmHg were significantly higher than that in the normal group (P<0.01); AWR score in 3 mA EA group under the stimulation of 0 mmHg was significantly higher than that in the normal group (P<0.01), and AWR scores in 3 mA EA group under the stimulation of 20 mmHg or 80 mmHg were also higher than that in the normal group (P<0.05). AWR scores were higher in 1 mA EA group under the stimulation of 40 mmHg or 80 mmHg than that in 4℃ moxibustion group (P<0.05); AWR score was higher in 3 mA EA group under the stimulation of 40 mmHg than that in 4℃ moxibustion group (P<0.05). Conclusion:There are differences among EA of different parameters and moxibustion of different temperatures in activating on Tianshu (ST 25) regions MC of visceral hyperalgesia model rats, as well as in improving the visceral hyperalgesia reaction. The effect of 4℃ moxibustion is the most significant.

Objective To develop a method of simultaneous detection and Gram classification for pathogens causing sepsis with gram-specific probes based real-time PCR. Methods A pair of universal primers and a set of probes including Gram-positive probe and Gram-negative probe were designed based on the bacterial highly conserved region of 16SrRNA gene. With the gram-specific probes based real-time PCR, 35 clinical frequently-isolated strains including 17 gram-positive and 18 gram-negative bacteria were identified correctly with the corresponding gram probe. The blood samples from 512 cases of suspected septicemia, who were hospitalized in our neonatal ward and the NICU and developed clinical signs suggestive of infection, were tested with routine culture and bacterial gram-specific probes based real-time PCR separately. Results The detection limit of the gram-specific probes based real-time PCR assay was 10 CFU of the bacteria. The 35 isolates could be detected and classified correctly by gram-specific probes based real-time PCR. The PCR results were all negative for Cytomegalo virus, EB virus, hepatitis B virus, Cryptococcns neoformans, candida albican, human genomic DNA and negative control. The gram-specific probes based real-time PCR appeared to be quite specific. For 512 blood specimens from the patients with suspicious neonatal sepsis, the positive rate of the gram-specific probes based real-time PCR array was 8.20% (42/512,), which is significantly higher than that of blood culture (32/512, 6.25%) (χ2=8.10, P<0.01). When blood culture was used as a standard, the sensitivity of the gram-specific probes based real-time PCR was 100%. The specificity was 97.92% and the accuracy was 98.05%. Canclusions Cram-specific probes based real-time PCR with universal primers and gram-specific probes are developed. This study suggests that the bacterial gram-specific probes based real-time PCR are very useful for the rapid and accurate diagnosis of bacterial infection.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome is caused by the PRRS virus(PRRSV), which has six structural proteins(GP2, GP3, GP4, GP5, M and N). GP5 and N protein are important targets for serological detection by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)and other methods. Toward this goal, we developed an indirect ELISA with recombinant GP5 antigens and this method was validated by comparison to the LSI PRRSV-Ab ELISA kit. The results indicated that the optimal concentration of coated recombinant antigen was 0.2 μg/well for a serum dilution of 1:40. The rate of agreement with the LSI PRRSV-Ab kit was 88.7%(266/300). These results support the potential use of recombinant GP5 as an antigen for indirect ELISA to detect PRRSV antibodies in pigs.

Objective:To observe the change of periphery and centra lymphocyte subsets at the crest-time of MOG_(35-55) induced EAE disease in mice,and to explore the alteration of cellular immunity and humoral immunity in the invasion process in EAE.Methods:MOG_(35-55) was used to establish EAE model in femina C57BL/6 mice.The behavioral changes and the histological scores were recorded after the mice were immuned .The changes of CD3~+CD4~+,CD3~+CD8~+,CD4~+CD25~+ and B220~+ on periphery and centra lymphocytes in spleen,brain and spinal cord were analyzed by flow cytometry.Results:The CD3~+CD4~+,CD3~+CD8~+,CD4~+CD25~+ and B220~+ lymphocytes were detected in the brain and spinal cord of EAE group mice,but they were not detected in CFA control group.The CD3~+CD4~+ and CD3+CD8+lymphocytes in the spleen of EAE crest-time group were lower than those in CFA control group(P＜0.05).The B220~+ lymphocytes were obviously higher than in the CFA control group (P＜0.01).And CD4~+CD25~+ lymphocytes were slight higher than the CFA control group.Conclusion:At the crest-time during EAE,the CD3~+CD4~+,CD3~+CD8~+lymphocytes of spleen reduced obviously,B220~+ lymphocytes increased markedly,and the CD4~+CD25~+ lymphocytes just have the increasing trend.It indicates that cellular immunity and humoral immunity coregulated the patho-process at the crest-time of EAE,T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes all played important roles in the pathogenesy of EAE.

Objective To detect de novo development of anti-HLA antibodies after renal transplantation, and to investigate their influence on graft function. Methods 384 kidney recipients,who were negative for anti-HLA antibody before transplantation, were monitored for anti-HLA antibodies over a period of 3-96 months, and a sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect anti-HLA antibodies. HLA antibody ＞10 % was defined as positive levels. Results Among 384 recipients tested, 318 recipients (82. 8 %) were negative for anti-HLA antibody after transplantation; 66 recipients (17. 2 %) developed de novo HLA antibodies, 3 recipients with HLA class Ⅰ, 61 with HLA class Ⅱ, 2 with both HLA class Ⅰ and Ⅱ. According to amino acid residue matching, 7 cases developed de novo antibodies among 92 recipients with 0 HLA-DR mismatches,compared with 59 cases among 292 recipients with 1-2 mismatches, which showed significant difference between two groups (P＜0. 01 ). 87. 4 % (278/318) recipients negative for HLA antibodies after transplantation achieved good graft function, in comparison with 65. 2 % (43/66) recipients positive for HLA antibodies (P＜0. 05). Conclusion De novo production of HLA antibodies posttransplantation may be closely associated with HLA-DR mismatch. De novo HLA antibodies posttransplantation might damage graft function and reduce graft survival rate. The detection of de novo development of anti-HLA antibodies after renal transplantation has clinical significance for assessing renal allograft function.

A UPLC-ESI-MS/MS method was used to determinate the main active fractions gallic acid, protocatechuic acid, myricetrin, hyperoside and quercitrin in Polygonum capitatum extracts by in situ intestinal perfusion models; the absorption rate constants and cumulative penetration rate of absorption were calculated. The effect of different drug concentrations, different intestine segments, bile and P-gp inhibitors on the absorption mechanism of Gallic acid and other compositions in P. capitatum extracts. The experimental results showed that gallic acid, protocatechuic acid, myricetrin and quercitrin were observed saturated at high concentration (P < 0.05). Bile had significant inhibition effect on protocatechuic acid absorption and had promotion effect on myricetrin and hyperoside absorption (P < 0.05). P-gp inhibitor verapamil could significantly enhance the absorption of Protocatechuic acid (P < 0.05). The overall trend for absorption of various compositions was that small intestine > colon. This indicated that the absorption mechanism of P. capitatum extracts in rat intestine was in line with fist-order kinetics characteristics. The composition could be absorbed in all of the different intestinal segments, and the absorption was mainly concentrated in small intestine. The protocatechuic acid may be the substrate of P-gp.
