In general,the students in Chinese medical universities have technophobia in nuclear medicine experiment,which gives reduction to the cognition and learning of the students.Based on the analysis of the students' psychology and learning,special countermeasures in teaching,therefore,should be used in the conquest of the students' psychological obstacle in order to improve teaching quality of nuclear medicine experiment.

Objective: In order to explore the anti-oxidant capacity of wild and cultivated ginseng, the anti-oxidase activities and antioxidants contents on ascorbic acid-glutathione (AsA-GSH) cycle were compared. Methods: The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) was detected by NBT method and the activity of catalase (CAT) was detected by potassium permanganate titration. The anti-oxidase activities and anti-oxidants contents on AsA-GSH cycle were tested using spectrophotometric determination. The contents of glutamate (Glu), cysteine (Gly), and glycine (Cys) were tested by automatic amino acid analysis. Results: The activities of SOD and CAT in wild ginseng were higher than that of cultivated ginseng. In AsA-GSH cycle, the activities of anti-oxidase such as ascorbate peroxidase (APX), monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDHAR), and glutathione reductase (GR). And the contents of antioxidants such as glutathione (GSH), ascorbic acid (AsA), and dehydroascorbic acid (DHA) were also more in wild ginseng. And then the contents of amino acids (Glu, Gly, and Cys), the precursor of GSH synthesis were high expression in wild ginseng to keep the balance of AsA and GSH recirculation. Conclusion: The anti-oxidase activities and antioxidants content on AsA-GSH cycle in wild ginseng are higher than those in cultivated ginseng, which may be leaded to the antioxidant capacity of wild ginseng is stronger. It will provide a theoretical basis for efficacy differences research on wild and cultivated ginseng.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect of Jinlida on changes in expression of skeletal muscle lipid transport enzymes in fat-induced insulin resistance ApoE -/- mice.

METHODEight male C57BL/6J mice were selected in the normal group (NF), 40 male ApoE -/- mice were fed for 16 weeks, divided into the model group (HF), the rosiglitazone group ( LGLT), the Jinlida low-dose group (JLDL), the Jinlida medium-dose group (JLDM), the Jinlida high-dose group (JLDH) and then orally given drugs for 8 weeks. The organization free fatty acids, BCA protein concentration determination methods were used to determine the skeletal muscle FFA content. The Real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription PCR ( RT-PCR) and Western blot method were adopted to determine mRNA and protein expressions of mice fatty acids transposition enzyme (FAT/CD36), carnitine palm acyltransferase 1 (CPT1), peroxide proliferators-activated receptor α( PPAR α).

RESULTJinlida could decrease fasting blood glucose (FBG), cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), free fatty acid (FFA) and fasting insulin (FIns) and raise insulin sensitive index (ISI) in mice to varying degrees. It could also up-regulate mRNA and protein expressions of CPT1 and PPARα, and down-regulate mRNA and protein levels of FAT/CD36.

CONCLUSIONJinlida can improve fat-induced insulin resistance ApoE -/- in mice by adjusting the changes in expression of skeletal muscle lipid transport enzymes.

Objective To study the influence of Rhizoma typhonii extract on the growth of glioma SHG-44 cells cultured invitro,and to explore the mechanism of the inhibitory effect of Rhizoma typhonii extract on the growth of glioma cells.Methods The SHG-44 cells were cultured and divided into blank control group and 8, 40, 200, 1 000μg·L-1 Rhizoma typhonii extract groups.The inhibitory effect of Rhizoma typhonii extract on the growth of glioma SHG-44 cells was measured by MTT assay. The secretion levels of Bax and caspase-3 proteins were examined by ELISA assay. The expression level of caspase-3 protein was examined by Western blotting method. Results Compared with blank control group, the inhibitory rates of the growth of SHG-44 cells in 200, 1 000μg·L-1 Rhizoma typhonii extract groups at 24 h,and 8,40,200,and 1 000μg·L-1 Rhizoma typhonii extract groups at 48 h were significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01).The secretion levels of Bax and caspase-3 proteins in 40,200,and 1 000μg· L-1 Rhizoma typhonii extract groups at 48 h were increased compared with blank control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01 ). Compared with blank control group, the expression levels of caspase-3 protein in different doses of Rhizoma typhonii extract groups were increased significantly (P<0.01). Conclusion Rhizoma Typhonii extract can inhibit the growth of cells through up-regulating the expression of Bax protein,increasing the expression level of caspase-3 protein and activating apoptosis pathway.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the reason and strategy for failure of posterior pedicle screw short-segment internal fixation on thoracolumbar fractures.

METHODSFrom March 2008 to December 2010,the clinical data of 18 patients with thoracolumbar fracture failed in posterior pedicle screw short-segment internal fixation were retrospectively analyzed. There were 11 males and 7 females with an average age of 37.2 years (ranged, 19 to 63). The time from the first operation to complication occurrence was from 6 to 44 months with an average of 14.3 months. Of them,fusion failure was in 7 cases (combined with screw breakage in 4 cases), the progressive neuro-dysfunction was in 5 cases,the progressive lumbodorsal pain was in 6 cases. All 18 patients with kyphosis were treated with anterior internal fixation remaining posterior fixation (9 cases) and anterior internal fixation after posterior fixation removal (9 cases).

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up from 18 to 50 months with an average of 30.5 months. No intetnal fixation loosening and breakage were found, moreover, X-ray and lamellar CT showed bone healing well. Preoperative, postoperative at 3 months and at final follow-up, ODI score was respectively 31.6+/-5.1, 8.6+/-5.7, 8.3+/-3.2; VAS score was respectively 7.2+/-2.3, 2.3+/-0.7, 2.1+/-1.1; kyphosis angle was respectively (-21.2/-+7.8 degreeso, (-5.3+/-6.8 degrees ), (-5.8+/-7.8 )degrees. Compared with preoperative data ,above-listed items had obviously ameliorated(P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONTreatment of thoracolumbar fracture with posterior pedicle screw short-segment internal fixation may result in the complications such as bone nonunion ,internal fixation breakage and progressive kyphosis. Anterior reconstruction may be a good strategy for the failure of posterior operation.

Objective To investigate the acute effect of dialysate calcium concentration on calcium balance and blood pressure(BP) of maintenance hemodialysis(MHD) patients with normal serum tCa,and to provide scien- tific basis for individualized calcium concentration dialysate formula.Methods For 4 weeks,dialysate with different calcium concentrations as DCa 1.25,DCa 1.5 and DCa 1.75 was used in 15 stable MHD patients.Arterial blood pressure was measured before and after each dialysis session,and every 30 minutes during hemodialysis session.Serum total calcium and ionized calcium were assessed before and after each dialysis session with different calcium concen- trations dialysate.Results With the DCa 1.2.5,BP,serum tCa and iCa decreased as compared with pre-dialysis val- ues(P

Objective To investigate the expression of musashi-1(msi-1)and its significances in small intestinal mucous severely damaged by high close 5-FU.Methods Total 40 adult C57BL/6J mice were divided into control group(n= 8,group D)and experimental group(n=32).Mice in control group received intraperitoneal injection of PBS as control,and mice in experimental group were intraperitoneally injected high dose 5-FU(150 mg per kg of body weigh for five days).After treatment 1 day(group A),3 days(group B)and 5 days( group C),the dying mice were killed,HE straining and immunohistochemical technique were carried out for detecting the expression of putative marker of intestinal epithelial stem cells——musashi-1(msi-1)in the samples of the meddle intestine,and the percentage of the msi-1 positive cells from the intestinal mucosal cells of the mice in group A was detected by flow cytometry.Results After the treatment of high dose 5-FU,the intestinal mucous was damaged severely;the number of msi-1 positive cells increased markedly;The intestinal mucosal cells can be divided into two groups by flow cytometry,and in the group in which the value of FSC was higher,the percentage of msi-1 positive cells increased to 67.75 %.Conclusions After the treatment of high dose of 5-FU,the percentage of intestinal stem cells increased significantly;this model may be useful for further isolation and enrichment of intestinal epithelial stem cells.
