[Objective]To investigate the protective effects of rhEPO on neuromotor function and apoptosis of neural cell,after it was peritoneally injected at different time in rats with traumatic spinal cord injury(SCI).[Method]A total of 48 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats weighting 270 ?10 g were randomly divided into four groups.Rats in normal group(n=6)and sham group(n=6)underwent laminectomy producure only.In control group,rats(n=18)received normal saline epidurally at 1,6 and 24 hours after injury.Treatment group(n=18)received 5000 iu/kg body weight of recombinant humane erythropoietin administered epidurally at 1,6 and 24 hours after injury.SCI was induced with 70g/cm impact according to the improved Allen method.Behavioral evaluation of the rats was made 48 hours after trauma using the Basso,Beattie,and Bresnahan(BBB)scoring system and Rivlin's tiltboard experiment.Injured spinal cord tissue cell apoptosis was examined by the terminal deoxynucleotidal transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end abeling(TUNEL)reaction at 48 hour.Fasl and Caspase-3 expression was determined by immunohistochemical analysis at 48 hours after injury.The results were observed by light microscope and analyzed by SPSS statistics software.[Result]Compared to the control group,neuromotor function was significantly improved at 1,6,and 24 hours after injury in the experiment group.The indexes of neural cell decreased significantly(P

Objective To study the length changes of the inferior glenohumeral ligament(IGHL) during shoulder abduction with MRI and 3D software.Methods Fourteen right shoulder joints of 14 healthy volunteers were evaluated in 7 isometric abduction positions(0?,30?,60?,90?,120?,150?,and 180?) using MRI scanning.3D shoulder models were reconstructed and the attachment points of the ligaments were located.The shortest ligament lengths were calculated between each origin and insertion in 3D space for each abduction position.Results During shoulder abduction,the 3D distance of AIGHL was found to elongate and attained the maximal length at 120? abduction(54.5 mm?3.0 mm)(P

Objective To investigate the influences on the femur cortex of the rabbit after ovariectomy and its mechanism.Methods Eighty 6 months-old female pure New Zealand rabbits were divided into two groups:40 rabbits in ovariectomy group and 40 in sham-operation group.The weight averaged 2.2±0.28 kg.Four weeks and 8 weeks after operation,a series of tests were performed in both groups concerning the number,the volume,the rate and the maximal load of cortical bone porosity.The number,the length and the density of linear crack in rabbit femur cortex were documented after repetitive application of minor trauma.Results Micro-CT demonstrated that both on week 4 and 8 after operation,the number,the volume and the rate of cortical bone porosity were all significantly higher in ovariectomy group than that of the control group.Four weeks after operation,the biomechanical test showed the significantly lower average maximal load of rabbit femur in ovariectomy group (1 892.60±59.09) than that of in control group (1 949.25±53.12) (P=0.003).Eight weeks after operation,the average load of both groups decreased to some extent,which was 1 944.55±41.76 in control group and 1 692.40±85.08 in ovariectomy group respectively (P=0.000).However,the average maximal load of ovariectomy group decreased more significantly.Having application of repetitive minor trauma to the bone,the number,the length and the density of linear crack of cortical bone were 3.40± 1.67,216.80± 17.60 μm and 0.40±0.08/mm2 in ovariectomy group,and 2.00± 1.17,160.45± 16.89 μm and 0.29±0.13/mm2 in control group 4 weeks later.And after 8 weeks,they were 5.15±1.18,334.60±13.94 μm and 0.35±0.10/mm2 in ovariectomy group,and 3.10±1.37,182.10±9.80 μm and 0.24±0.09/mm2 in control group.The number,the length and the density of linear crack of cortical bone were all significantly higher in ovariectomy group than that of in control group both on week 4 and on week 8 after operation.Conclusion Ovariectomy increases the porosity of cortical bone of rabbit,destroys its biological property,accelerates the fatigued damage and delays the healing process.These changes may be attributed to fracture and delayed union after fracture.

Objective To explore the significance of interleukin -35 (IL -35)in serum of patients with severe hepatitis.Methods Collected 39 cases of chronic hepatitis B(CHB)patients and severe hepatitis,and col-lected 19 cases of healthy control's(HC)peripheral blood at the same time.ELISA method was used to detect IL -35 levels.Results IL -35 in CHB and severe hepatitis group [(483.5 ±280.7)ng/mL and (277.9 ±248.7)ng/mL] were higher than HC group (50.5 ±47.8)ng/mL(t =2.089,3.303,P =0.044,0.002).In severe hepatitis group, the IL -35 levels in survivors group (305.3 ±301.2)ng/mL was higher than death group (78.7 ±33.2)ng/mL (P =0.012).IL -35 was positively correlated with ALT and AST,the correlation coefficient were 0.649 and 0.599. Conclusion IL -35 is involved in the pathogenesis of hepatitis B process,the low serum IL -35 levels in severe hepatitis patients may herald a bad prognosis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of miR-155 and miR-146a in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and plasma of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients.MethodsPBMC and plasma were separated from the peripheral blood of 34 RA patients and 15 healthy individuals.Total RNAs were isolated and miRNAs were purified.The levels of miR-155 and miR-146a were determined by quantitative reverse transcription PCR(qRT-PCR).U6 was used as housekeeping control.The amount of target miRNA was normalized relative to the amount of U6(ΔCt=ΔCtmiRNA-ΔCtU6).Relative expression levels were expressed as 2 △-ΔCt.Data were analyzed using SPSS 13.0 software.The test of homogeneity of variance and unpaired t-test was used to compare between groups.P values(2-tailed) less than 0.05 were considered as statistically significant.ResultsThe expressions of PBMC and plasma miR-155 were higher in RA patients than those in the healthy control individuals(0.08±0.08 vs 0.05±0.03,t=-2.225,P<0.05; 5.9±6.7 vs 1.3±2.0,t=-3.677,P<0.05).The expression of miR-146a in PBMC and plasma of RA patients and controls were(1.3±1.2 vs 0.8±0.6,t=-2.154,P<0.05)and(741±1001 vs 300±295,t=-1.669,P>0.05).According to their DAS28 value,RA patients were divided into high activity group (23 cases,DAS28≥5.0) and low disease activity group( 11cases,DAS28<5.0).The plasma miR-155 and miR-146a expressions were significantly higher in high activity group than those in low activity group.There were no significant differences in the expression of PBMC miR-155 and miR-146a between the two groups.ConclusionThe expression of PBMC and plasma miR-155 and miR-146a are higher in RA patients.The expression of plasma miR-155 and miR-146a are associated with RA patients' activity.Plasma miR-155 and miR-146a may be potential non-invasive biomarkers for RA diagnosis anddisease activity assessment.

Objective To improve the operation method of rupture of Achilles tendon for decreasing complication. Methods Total 39cases with closed rupture of Achilles tendon were selected in this study. Short incision was made at achilles tendon wall, reveal and anneal the broken ends, using Kirschner wire and steel-wire to make rectangle frame ,intradermic fixation of fracture away from the broken ends, then sutured ends with rarities and smoothing,functional exercise after 6weeks ankle rest position fixation. Results According to the Arner Lindholm evaluation system,the treatment outcome were excellent in 34 cases ,and good in 5cases. No complication including re-rupture skin ,tendon necrosis and infection were found after operation. Conclusion Repaired closed rupture of Achilles tendon with short incision and rectangle frame, assisted with ankle rest position fixation after operation wasa worthy way for treating closed rupture of a chilles tendon.
