Objective To observe the effect of electroacupuncture(EA) on the angiogenesis in rats with cerebral ischemia.Methods 30 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:normal group,model group and EA group.After the establishment of acute middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO),the rats were treated with EA on DU20 and DU26.Then the expression of bFGF,Ang-2 and Tie-2 by immunohistochemical staining was ob- served.Results The expression of bFGF and Ang-2 around the infarction locus of EA group increased remarkably compared with normal group and model group and the increase of Tie-2 was not significant.Conclusion EA can increase the expression of bFGF and Ang-2 around the infarction locus and promote the angiogenesis in rats with cere- bral ischemia.

OBJECTIVETo observe the status of AKT and phospho-AKT (pAKT) in three diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) cell lines, and to investigate the effects of AKT activation on biologic behavior of DLBCL cells.
METHODSThree DLBCL cell lines, ly1, ly8 and ly10 were maintained in 10% FBS or serum free culture medium. The expression of AKT and status of pAKT were detected by Western blotting. LY294002, an inhibitor of PI3K, was used to suppress the level of pAKT. Flow cytometry combined with PI staining, AnnexinV-FITC assay and Brdu incorporation assay were used to analyze the parameters of the cell cycle, apoptosis and proliferation respectively.
RESULTSThere was constitutive activation of AKT in three DLBCL cell lines and the levels of pAKT were altered in the different environments. In 10% FBS culture medium, pAKT was higher than that in serum free culture medium in ly8 and ly10, however, pAKT in ly1 maintained in serum free culture medium was mildly higher than that in 10% FBS culture medium. When the cell lines ly1, ly8, ly10 were maintained in 10% FBS culture medium, the inhibitor LY294002 suppressed the level of pAKT efficiently in three DLBCL cell lines. The percentage of cells at S phase and the proliferation index were significantly decreased (P < 0.05) without an increase of apoptosis (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONSActivation of AKT may play an important role in the development of DLBCL. It is closely related to the control of cell cycle and proliferation, but is not associated with apoptosis. LY294002 can inhibit cell growth by decreasing the levels of pAKT in DLBCL cell lines.

OBJECTIVETo compare efficacy between the modified tension band technique and the parallel titanium cannulated lag screw technique for the transverse patella fracture.
METHODSSeventy-two patients were retrospectively analyzed aged 22 to 79 years (mean, 55.6 years) with transverse patella fractures, among whom 37 patients underwent the modified tension band and 35 patients received the titanium cannulated lag screw. Patients were followed up for 1-3 years. We analyzed the difference of operation time, complications, fracture reduction, fracture healing time, and the Iowa score for knee function between both groups.
RESULTSIn modified tension band group, five patients had skin irritation and seven suffered wire migration, two of whom required a second operation. In comparison, there were no complications in the titanium cannulated lag screw group, which also had a higher fracture reduction rate and less operation time.
CONCLUSIONThe parallel titanium cannulated lag screw technique has superior results and should be considered as an alternative method to treat transverse patella fracture.

C57BL/6 mice were inoculated intranasally (50 microl) with serial 10-fold dilution of HAB/01 H5N1 virus. Three and five days later, three mice of each group were euthanized. Lung injury was assessed by observation of lung histopathology, virus titers and MCD50 were also measured. Our data showed that H5N1 viral infection in mice resulted in mainly epithelial injury and interstitial pneumonia, featuring significant weight loss, dramatically increased lung wet weight:body weight ratio, inflammatory cellular infiltration, alveolar and interstitial edema, hemorrhage in lungs with high virus titers, and MCD50 was 10(-6.5)/ 0.05 mL. These results suggested that a mouse model of H5N1 viral infection was successfully established which may benefit study of H5N1 avian influenza virus and pathogenic mechanism of host.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the changes in the activity of Escherichia coli asparaginase (L-asp) and the concentration of asparagines (ASN) in the plasma of the acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) children receiving L-asp containing chemotherapeutic protocol to explore more reasonable usage of L-asp in the treatment of childhood ALL.
METHODSL-asp containing hemotherapy regimen of VDLP was used, in which L-asp (10,000 U/m(2)) was administered intravenously every other day for 10 doses in 15 children with ALL. A total of 340 peripheral blood samples were collected at scheduled time points during the therapy and plasma L-asp activity (by spectrophotometric assay) and asparagines concentration (by RP-HPLC) were measured.
RESULTSDuring the administration of L-asp, the plasma L-asp activity was increasing gradually peaked after eight doses and then decreased gradually, while the plasma concentration of asparagines maintained in complete or nearly complete depletion status. After the therapy courses finished, a plasma L-asp activity above 100 U/L with asparagines almost complete depletion status was lasting for about seven days.
CONCLUSIONThe current L-asp containing chemotherapeutic protocols in which L-asp was administered in a dose of 10 000/m(2) intravenously every other day, are efficient enough for the depletion of plasma ASN.

OBJECTIVETo compare the postoperative hemorrhage between standard uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) and coblation assisted UPPP, and to evaluate the related risk factors and preventive measures.
METHODSFive hundreds and ninety seven patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) underwent UPPP and coblation assisted UPPP between January 1, 1999, and September 30, 2009 were reviewed retrospectively. Two hundred and sixty three patients with coblation assisted UPPP and 334 patients with standard UPPP were treated respectively. Single factor statistic analysis, multiple factors Logistic regress statistic analysis and Wilcoxon test method for related risk factors were applied.
RESULTSA total of 42 patients (7.0%) experienced postoperative bleeding. Among them, 24 patients with coblation assisted UPPP (9.1%) and 18 patients with UPPP (5.4%) had postoperative hemorrhage. Significant difference was not found in the degree of hemorrhage (z = 0.784, P > 0.05), hemorrhage site(χ(2) = 1.387, P > 0.05) and postoperative hemorrhage rates (χ(2) = 3.14, P > 0.05) between the two surgical techniques. Significant difference was found in the interval of hemorrhage after surgery between the two surgical techniques (χ(2) = 9.25, P < 0.01). History of hypertension, smoking, hepatic dysfunction was found to be correlated with the postoperative hemorrhage (Odd-ratio were respectively 7.326, 3.674, 2.707).
CONCLUSIONCoblation technique did not significantly increase UPPP postoperative hemorrhage.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect of BAM bone grafting combined with inactivated autologous porous bone flap in repairing skull defect in rats.
METHODSSeventy-two Wistar rats with skull defect were randomly divided into control group, inactivated autologous bone flap group (AB group), BAM bone-induced artificial bone material group (BAM group), and inactivated autologous bone flap with BAM bone-induced artificial bone group (BAM+AB group). The bone healing was evaluated with micro-CT and the new bone formation was assessed with histological staining at 1, 2, and 3 months after modeling.
RESULTSInactivated porous bone flap combined with BAM bone-induced artificial bone effectively induced vascular and fibrous tissue regeneration and osteogenesis in the cranial defects. With the inactivated porous bone flap as the scaffold, BAM bone-induced artificial bone obviously promoted the restoration of the skull appearance in the rats with cranial defects.
CONCLUSIONInactivated autologous bone flap group and BAM bone-induced artificial bone material can promote skull healing and restoration of the original skull appearance, and can be used for reconstruction of the local anatomy of the skull surface.
