The common, particular structure and the arrangement pattern of the retinula in the compound eye of the housefly Musca domestica have been investigated, and the structures of the retinula cells here been compared with an electron microscope under dark, bright and high intensity light adaptation condition.In general, the retinula of the compound eye is composed of eight retinula cells, but some retinula is composed of six, seven, or nine, ten retinula cells.The arrangement pattern of the retinula in the right, left compound eye and dorsal, ventral regions of the compound eye are the mirror image inversion. But the arrangement pattern of some retinula in the dorsal or ventral region is also the mirror image inversion.The greater part of pigment granules in the retinula cells No.1～6 move towards the rhabdomere, the pigment granules in the retinula cells No.7～8 do not move, but the pigment granules in the some retinula cells No.7～8 move towards the rhabdomere under high intensity light adaptation condition.

Me thods 15 cases who have severe encephalocele were reviewed retrospec tively.Results Among 15 cases, 12 cases have been cured,3 c ases died with severe pulmonary infection.Conclusion The re asons of severe encephalocele are hydrocephalus?cerebral edema and intracranial infection and it is useful to utilize medicine and other ways to lighten hydroc ephalus?cerebral edema and intracranial infection for the patients who have sev ere encephalocele.

1. The central retinular cells R_7 in the compound eye of male housefly can be divided into two types which are called here R_(7a) and R_(7b) respectively. R_(7a) approximate many features of R_(1-6) cells, which have a larger, cell body, rhabdomere and axon, terminate in the first optic neuropil (lamina). R_(7b) approximate many features of R_8 cell and project directly to the second optic neuropil (medulla). 2. The central retinular cell R_(7a) in the compound eye of male housefly distribute mainly the dorsal region of the eye, there are a few of R_(7a) in the ventral region of the eye, which only distribute in the first and second row ommatidia under equatorial line, but not found in the compound eye of female housefly.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of locking compression plate (LCP) in treatment of comminuted fractures of distal end of radius. Methods A retrospective analysis of the clinical data was done for the 24 patients with comminuted fracture of distal end of radius who had been treated by locking compression plate fixation from August 2002 to August 2003. Results The follow up duration averaged 7.8 months. The satisfactory rate of functional outcome with LCP fixation was 91.6 percent. Conclusion Although LCP can provide the outstanding stability theoretically, it has not resulted in more exciting outcomes in treatment of comminuted fractures of distal end of radius than traditional methods.

Objective To investigate effect of p27kip1 gene transfer mediated by adenovirus vector on the cell cycle of esophageal carcinoma cells. Methods The recombination adenoviral vector carrying p27kip1 gene (Ad-p27kip) was transfected to esophageal carcinoma Eca9706 cells. The effect of p21kip1 gene transfer on the cell growth suppression was measured by MTT method. Expression of p27kip1 was detected by immunocytochemical technique. Cell cycle was analysed by flow cytometry(FCM). Results After Eca9706 cells were transfected with Ad-p27kip1, p27kip1 expression increased, the cell growth was significantly inhibited and the ratio of G 0/G 1 phase cells increased and the cell number of G 2/M and S phases decreased. Conclusion p27kip1 gene transfer mediated by adenovirus can significantly inhibit the growth of esophageal carcinoma cells and cause G 1 phase blocking.

Objective To detect the positivity of circulating autoantibodies against cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnI) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and myocarditis patients and investigate the interference of the antibodies with the detection of cTnI. Methods cTnI ELISA was established for assessment of sera obtained from 121 patients with AMI, 24 with myocarditis and 210 healthy subjects. Binding specificity of cTnI antibody from positive sera by ELISA was confirmed with Western Blot. The recovery of cTnl studies was employed to evaluating the effects of cTnl autoantibodies on cTnI immunoassays. Results Thirteen of the 121 AMI patients (10.74%) and 2 of the 24 myocarditis patients (8.3%) had positive anti-cTnI antibodyas compared with none in the healthy subjects. The recovery of cTnI by adding cTnI-C fusion proteincorresponding to final cTnI concentration of 0.625-100 ug/L to sample with anti-cTnI antibody wasinhibited significantly (Spearman correlation coefficient r=0.943, P=0.005 ). There was no significantchange of recovery of cTnl when adding it to a normal sera(Spearman correlation coefficient r=0.377,P=0.461). When cTnI-C complex corresponding to 20 ug/L cTnI was added, 5 of the 15 sera with anti-cTnIantibody were found with the inhibition of recovery (<80%). Conclusions Autoantibodies against cTnIwere increasing in patients with AMI and myocarditis, yet it appears that these autoantibodies could interferenegatively with the cTnI immunoassay. Thus, it should be paid more attention to cTnI immunoassays.

Objective To establish a differently expressed genetic profile in placental tissues of pregnancy induced hypertension(PIH). Method The total RNAs were isolated from the tissues by Trizol and mRNA was purified by Midi Kit. The expression of 17 000 genes in placental tissues of 6 PIH and 5 normoten sive women were evaluated by cDNA array technique. Results Ninety-six differently expressed genes were identified in placental tissue of PIH compared with normal pregnancy cases. Seventy-eight genes were up-regulated and 18 were down-regulated. There were 6 unclassified genes, 8 unknown expressed sequence tag (EST) fragments and 3 cDNA fragments among these differently expressed genes. The differently expressed genes were involved in transcription and translation,cell differentiation,receptor,apoptosis,immune,metabolism and growth. Conclusion The cellular mechanism of PIH involves changes in genes expression in placental tissue. Microarray is a useful method to identify differently expressed genes in tissue.
