Objective To study the anti-aging effect of total saponins of Polygala tenuifolia (PTS). Methods The effects of total saponins of Polygala tenuifolia on oxygen free radicals were investigated by the methods of scavenging hydroxyl radical, superoxide radical and DPPH oxygen free radicals in vitro. The photoaging model of mice skin was established to observe the effect of total saponins of Polygala tenuifolia on mouse skin pathology. Results In the experiment of antioxidation in vitro, the total saponins of Polygala tenuiflora significantly scavenged hydroxyl free radicals (P<0.05, P<0.001) and superoxide radical (P<0.01) at 6.0 and 12.0mg/mL, DPPH free radicals (P<0.001). In the light aging experiment, the light aging model of mice skin was established successfully in group B (model + medium tea oil). Compared with group B, the density of the skin epidermis in D group (30 min before irradiation, 6mg/mL PTS) was thickened, the elastic fibers were arranged uniformly and tightly, the collagen fibers proliferated significantly and densely, and the inflammatory cells infiltration was not found. The treatment effect was most remarkable in group G (30min after irradiation, PTS 12mg/mL PTS), and the skin of the mice was thickened, the elastic fibers were evenly arranged, the collagen fibers had some hyperplasia, evenly distributed, and there was no infiltration of inflammatory cells, which had significant therapeutic effect. Conclusion The total saponins of Polygala tenuifoliahas significant antioxidant activity and anti - light aging effect.

Objective To explore the effect of chimera on acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after xenogeneic bone marrow transplantation. Methods Chimera was produced by exposing rats to sublethal total body irradiation and mouse bone marrow transplantation plus intraperitoneal injection of CTX. Mice were divided into three groups. Mice in group A were transplanted with marrow cells of rats without chimera, mice in group B with marrow cells with chimera, and mice in group C with C57BL/6 of rat marrow cells with chimera. Prophylactic effect on the model of aGVHD in the mice induced after xenogeneic bone marrow transplantation was observed. Results All transplantated mice showed typical aGVHD signs. Animals in group A developed typical aGVHD, and death occurred in 10-12 days after transplantation. The mean survival time of group B were longer than that of group A and C, and the signs and histopathological changes of aGVHD in group B were less severe. Conclusion Xenogeneic chimera can prevent aGVHD, alleviate its symptoms and histopathological changes, and prolong mean survival time. The prophylactic effect is specific.

Objective To investigate the correlation between helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) infection with gastric muco?sa pathologic changes in chronic gastritis. Methods A total of 250 patients with chronic gastritis who came to Tianjin Union Medicine Center from November 2011 to March 2013 were collected in this study. Electronic gastroscope examina?tions, pathology and Urea-14C breath tests were performed in patients. There were 153 cases with chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG group), and 97 cases without chronic atrophic gastritis (non-CAG group). The positive rate of H.pylori was compared between two groups. At the same time the positive rate of H.pylori was compared between different parts of CAG patients. The positive rates of H.pylori were compared between different pathologic features of chronic gastritis (active degree, the de?gree of inflammation, atrophy and intestinal classification). Results The positive rate of H.pylori was higher in CAG pa?tients than that of non-CAG patients (70.6%vs 35%,χ2=30.552). The positive rate of H.pylori was higher in antral and cor?pus atrophy of CAG group than that of antral atrophy (82.6%vs 65.4%,χ2=4.578). With the aggravating activity of gastritis, the inflammation, chronic gastritis, atrophy and intestinal classification, the positive rate of H.pylori was increased (χ2=200.643, 206.715, 73.286, 218.432). Conclusion H.pylori infection is related with chronic gastritis, chronic atrophic gas?tritis. And antral and corpus atrophy CAG is closely related with H.pylori infection.

BACKGROUND: Studies have demonstrated that dexamethasone can reduce type Ⅱ collagen and increase type I collagen in articular cartilage surface matrix, but the action mechanism of glucocorticoid to articular chondrocyte proliferation remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of dexamethasone sodium phosphate on rabbit articular chondrocytes cultured in vitro. DESIGN: Comparative observation.MATERIALS: New Zealand rabbits, 1 month old, were used for chondrocyte isolation and culture.METHODS: Rabbit articular chondrocytes cultured in vitro were randomly divided into control and experimental groups. Cells of the control group were cultured in DMEM media without dexamethasone sodium phosphate. Cells of experimental groups were cultured in DMEM media with different concentrations of dexamethasone sodium phosphate (0.02, 0.1, 0.5 g/L), respectively. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Primary and passage chondrocytes were observed. Flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry were used to observe the effect of dexamethasone sodium phosphate on cell proliferation and type Ⅱ collagen synthesis. The ultrastructural changes of cultured chondrocytes were observed by transmission electron microscopy. RESULTS: The attachment and proliferation of experimental group chondrocytes was slower than control group. There average gray scale values of the experimental groups were significantly greater than the control group (P < 0.05). The cellular proportions of S phase and G_2+M phase of the experimental groups decreased but the cellular proportions of G0/G1 period increased. Under transmission electron microscope the amount of rough endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria of the experimental groups decreased. CONCLUSION: Dexamethasone sodium phosphate inhibited articular chondrocyte proliferation, possibly due to the decrease of type Ⅱcollagen and protein synthesis ability of chondrocyte.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between the clinicopathological factors, prognosis and the expression of p16 and c erbB 2 protein in primary breast cancer. Methods The expression of p16 and c erbB 2 by immunohistochemical method was observed in 50 patients with primary breast cancer and the detection of p16 by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and the point mutation of p16 by PCR single strand conformational polymorphism(SSCP) were detected in 20 patients with breast cancer. Results Among the cancers, positive expression of p16 protein was found in 17(34.00%) cases, c erbB 2 protein positive expression in 24(48.00%) cases. No homozygous deletion in p16 gene was found. However, exon2 point mutation of p16 gene was found in 1 of 20 breast cancer. The results showed no relationship between p16 expression and clinicopathological factor or prognosis. Positive expressions of c erbB 2 protein were often found in breast cancer with lymph node metastasis(P=0.0237) with a poor 5 year survivalrate(P=0.0169). There was no consistent relationship between the expression of p16 and c erbB 2 protein. Neither p16 nor c erbB 2 protein expression could be as an independent prognostic factor. Conclusions The patients with breast cancer of positive expression of c erbB 2 protein has a high lymph node metastasis rate and a poor survival rate. The point mutation rate of p16 gene is lower in primary breast cancer, and it can be a molecular events in advanced primary breast cancer.

Objective: To observe the clinical effect of oral nutrition supplementation for maxillofacial tumor patients before operation. Methods: 60 patients who suffered from maxillofacial neoplasm were divided into two groups. In observation group, on basis of routine diet, oral nutrition supplements (Fortisip) had been added for 5～7 days before operation. In control group, only routine diet had been supplied. After operation, the two groups were all supplied with tube feeding. The blood routine test, plasma total protein, albumin, pre albumin and lymphocyte count were measured in all patients. Results: Every biochemical item reduced significantly after operation and no statistical significance was found between groups. But the absolute decreasing values had significant difference between the groups. Conclusions: Oral nutrition supplements (Fortisip) contains balanced nutrients and tastes well. It is safe and effective to use a nutritional supplement, being helpful to prevent malnutrition and to improve the immune function in perioperative period of patients with maxillofacial neoplasm.
