The adsorption and activation of dimethyl carbonate on the surface of solid base were investigated by in situ FTIR, and the solid bases included magnesia, magnesium fluoride, Mg-Al mixed oxide and fluorine-modified Mg-Al mixed oxide. The FTIR results showed that dimethyl carbonate adsorbed on the surface of solid based by two modes of bidentate and unidentate complex. The bidentate was more active than the unidentate. Methoxyl group was formed from the adsorbed dimethyl carbonate on the surface of magnesia and Mg-Al mixed oxide. And fluomethyl group was formed from the adsorbed dimethyl carbonate on the surface of sodium fluoride. However, dimethyl carbonate on the surface of fluorine-modified Mg-Al mixed oxide showed preference for generating fluomethyl group. With the increasing of the treating temperature of samples, the methoxyl group was gradually formed on the surface. Accordingly, the fluorine-modified Mg-Al mixed oxide was found to be an excellent catalyst for methylation.

OBJECTIVETo research the change of concentration of the amino acid neurotransmitters in the striatum focal cerebral ischemia in rat and the effect of Acorus tatarinowii Schott, one of inducing resuscitation drugs, for 4 of amino acid neurotransmitters.
METHODSTwenty four rats were divided into four groups (n = 6): control group, cerebral ischemia group, sham operation group and Acorns tatarinowii Schott treated group. Rats were established into models of cerebral ischemia by occluding bilateral thread cork method. Formation sampling were performed in a striatum area using microdialysis and the detection of biological sample including aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glycine and gamma-aminobutyric acid by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) electrochemical detector system.
RESULTSCompared with the control, the all contents of 4 kinds of the amino acids were significantly increased during cerebral ischemia (P < 0.01). Compared with the cerebral ischemia group, the contents of aspartic acid, glutamic acid that were excitatory amino acids were remarkably decreased in the striatum for Acorus tatarinowii Schott treated group (P < 0.01), It was no significant influence on gamma-aminobutyric acid and glycine that belonged to inhibitory amino acid in a nascent condition but with a elevating in the later period of microdialysis.
CONCLUSIONAcorus tatarinowii Schott can enter the cerebral parenchyma through blood brain barrier and cut down glutamic acid,aspartic acid increased during cerebral ischemia. As a result, the neurotoxicity attributed to the excitatory amino acid has been released in excessive amounts declined so as to avoid the secondary impairment of neurons caused by excitatory amino acids pernicious effects after ischemia. It may be one of the protective mechanism of drugs for inducing resuscitation resembling EAA receptor antagonists to ischemi brain.

OBJECTIVETo culture rat prostate glandular epithelial cells and study their barrier functions in vitro.
METHODSRat prostate glandular epithelial cells were cultured in vitro. The expression of the tight junction protein claudin-1 was determined by immunohistochemistry, the structure and composition of the epithelial cells observed under the inverted microscope and transmission electron microscope. The transepithelial electrical resistances (TEERs) were monitored with the Millicell system. The permeability of the prostate glandular epithelial cells was assessed by the phenol red leakage test.
RESULTSCompact monolayer cell structures were formed in the prostate glandular epithelial cells cultured in vitro. Immunohistochemistry showed the expression of the tight junction protein claudin-1 and transmission electron microscopy confirmed the formation of tight junctions between the adjacent glandular epithelial cells. The TEERs in the cultured prostate glandular epithelial cells reached the peak of about (201.3 ± 3.5) Ω/cm2 on the 8th day. The phenol red leakage test manifested a decreased permeability of the cell layers with the increase of TEERs.
CONCLUSIONThe structure and function of rat prostate glandular epithelial cells are similar to those of brain capillary endothelial cells, retinal capillary endothelial cells, and intestinal epithelial cells. In vitro cultured prostate glandular epithelial cells have the barrier function and can be used as a model for the study of blood prostate barrier in vitro.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the inhibitory effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on E coliinduced prostatitis in rats.
METHODSBMSCs were isolated, cultured and amplified by the attached choice method. Fifty SD rats were randomized into five groups of equal number: normal control, acute bacterial prostatitis (ABP) , chronic bacterial prostatitis (CBP), ABP + BMSCs, and CBP + BMSCs, and the animals in the latter four groups were injected with E. coli into both sides of the prostate under ultrasound guidance for 1 - 14 days to induce ABP and for 4 - 12 weeks to induce CBP. The control rats were injected with the same amount of PBS. Two weeks after injection of BMSCs into the prostates, pathomorphological changes in the prostate were observed under the light microscope and the mRNA and protein levels of IL-1β and TNF-α determined by RT-PCR and ELISA, respectively, followed by statistical analysis with SPSS 18.0.
RESULTSHistopathological evaluation showed typical pathological inflammatory changes in the prostates of the rats in the ABP and CBP groups, including glandular structural changes, interstitial edema, inflammatory cell infiltration, and fibrous hyperplasia, which were all remarkably relieved after treated with BMSCs. The mRNA and protein levels of IL-β ([0.829 ± 0.121] and [271.75 ± 90.59] pg/ml) and TNF-α ([0.913 ± 0. 094] and [105.78 ± 19. 05] pg/ml) in the ABP and those of IL-1β ([0. 975 ± 0. 114] and [265. 31 ± 71. 34] pg/ml) and TNF-α ([0. 886 ± 0. 084] and [107. 45 ± 26. 11 ] pg/ml) in the CBP groups were significantly higher than those in the control rats ([0. 342 ± 0.087] and [45.76 17. 99] pg/ml, P <0. 05); ([0.247 ± 0.054] and ([19.42 ± 7. 75] pg/ml, P <0. 01) as well as than those in the ABP + BMSCs ([0. 433 ± 0. 072] and [51. 34 ± 22. 13] pg/ml, P < 0. 05 ) ; ( [0. 313 ± 0. 076] and [28. 38 ± 8. 78] pg/ml, P < 0. 01) and the CBP + BMSCs group ([0.396 ± 0.064] and [56.37 ± 21.22] pg/ml, P <0.05); ([0.417 ± 0.068] and [29.21 ± 10.22] pg/ml, P <0.01).
CONCLUSIONInjection of BMSCs can reduce E coli-induced prostatic inflammation reaction, which.may be associated with its reduction of inflammatory cell infiltration and the expressions of IL-1β and TNF-α in the prostate tissue.

The actual efficacy of acupuncture on cerebral infarction was explored in clinical practice. The retro spective cohort study was adopted to investigate 344 cases via inpatient's medical cases. According to whether acupuncture was received or not, an acupuncture group (207 cases) and a non-acupuncture group (137 cases) were divided. The matching method, regression method and weighting method of propensity score (PS) were adopted, and the efficacy on muscle strength was taken as effect index so that the specific impacts of acupuncture were ex plored on the muscle strength in the patients of cerebral infarction. Before matching, COX regression model and Logistic regression model were used. And PS hierarchical regression, PS inverse probability weighting method (IPTW) and PS standardized mortality weighting method (SMRW) were applied to the analysis on the relationship between the muscle strengthen changes and the total effective rate in the two groups. It was found that the efficacy in the acupuncture group was better than that in the non-acupuncture group, indicating the significant difference (P<0.05). Meanwhile, the rehabilitation therapy also brought the obvious impacts on the efficacy evaluation (OR=2.737, P=0.0055). After PS matching, the Logistic regression model was used to analyze whether acupuncture or rehabilitation therapy impacted the total effective rate of muscle strength. The results showed that the efficacy was impacted apparently with the rehabilitation therapy involved (OR=2.930, P=0.0247). Without the rehabilitation effect considered, the efficacy in the acupuncture group was better potentially than that in the non-acupuncture group, but without significant difference (OR=2. 235, P=0,058 7). All of these indicate that on the basis of routine treatment, without the effect of rehabilitation therapy considered, acupuncture improves in tenden cy of the muscle strength of the patients with cerebral infarction. However, it is expected to increase the study medical cases for further verification.
