Objective:To explore predictive value of serum high sensitive C reactive protein (hsCRP) for clinical risk of acute cerebral infarction (ACI).Methods: A total of 122 ACI patients diagnosed in our hospital were regarded as cerebral infarction (CI) group, another 122 patients without ACI who received physical examination in our hospital during the same period were selected as non-CI group.Intima-medium thickness (IMT), plaque location and hsCRP level were compared between two groups, and the relationship among different IMT, plaque types and hsCRP level was analyzed.Results: Compared with non-CI group, there were significant rise in percentages of IMT thickening (1.6% vs.19.7%), carotid atherosclerotic plaques (15.6% vs.69.7%) and unstable plaques (8.2% vs.60.7%) in CI group, P=0.001 all;among CI patients, compared with normal IMT patients, there was significant rise in hsCRP level [(4.7±1.6) mg/L vs.(8.5±2.5) mg/L vs.(12.6±3.9) mg/L] in IMT thickening and IMT plaque formation patients, and hsCRP level of plaque formation patients was significantly higher than that of IMT thickening patients, P=0.001 all;hsCRP level of unstable plaque patients was significantly higher than that of stable plaque patients [(13.7±2.7) mg/L vs.(9.1±2.1) mg/L, P=0.001].Conclusion: Compared with normal IMT patients, there was significant rise in hsCRP level in IMT thickening and IMT plaque formation patients, and hsCRP level of unstable plaque patients was significantly higher than that of stable plaque patients in acute cerebral infarction and non-CI patients, so hsCRP can be used as risk predictor for carotid atherosclerosis and acute cerebral infarction

Objective To investigate effects of endothelial adhesion molecule platelet endothelial cell odhesion molecule-1(PECAM-1),intercellular adhesion molecule-3(ICAM-3) and CD44 on lymphangiogenesis. Methods The lymphatic endothelial cells of the canine thoracic ducts were isolated and incubated.PECAM-1,ICAM-3 and CD44 on the lymphatic endothelial cells were labeled and visualized under fluorescence microscope and confocal laser scanning microscope.The endothelial cells stimulated by TNF-? or LPS were treated with the blocking antibodies against PECAM-1, ICAM-3 and CD44 respectively.The proliferation and migration of cells were determined with cell counting. The three-dimensional collagen gel model of lymphangiogenesis was prepared, and then the tube formation was viewed. The total length and area of the tubes formed from lymphatic endothelial cells were measured and their characteristics were examined with a transmission electron microscope. Results PECAM-1, ICAM-3 and CD44 were expressed on the lymphatic endothelial cells. In the control, TNF-? and LPS groups, the percentage of the migrated cells decreased and the total length and area of the tubes reduced after PECAM-1, ICAM-3 and CD44 of the cells were blocked respectively. The proliferated cells reduced after PECAM-1 or CD44 of the cells were blocked. However, there were no significant changes in the numbers of proliferated cells when ICAM-3 of the cells was blocked. In the semi-ultrathin and ultrathin sections, the tube structures formed by lymphatic endothelial cells were similar to lymphatic capillary.Conclusion PECAM-1, ICAM-3 and CD44 are expressed on the cultured lymphatic endothelial cells. These adhesion molecules are involved in lymphangiogenesis that includes proliferation, migration and tube formation of endothelial cells.

Objective To investigate the effects of ghrelin on colonic motility in mice.Methods The eflfects of ghrelin on colonic propulsive movement were detected by charcoal suspension pushing test after injection of normal saline and different doses of ghrelin(20,50,100,200 ng/g).The effects of atropine,NG-nitro-L-arginine methylester hydrochloride(L-NAME)or D-Lys3-GHRP-6 on the changes of colonic propulsive movement caused by ghrelin(100 ng/g)were also investigated.In vitro,the effects of different doses of ghrelin(0.01,0.1,1,10μmol/L)on the spontaneous contraction amplitude of proximal colonic circular muscle strips were studied.Results Ghrelin significantly accelerated the colonic propulsive movement in dose-dependent manner,but the efiect was significantly inhibited in the presence of atropine,L-NAME or D-Lys3-GHRP-6(t=10.230,12.560,11.590,P＜0.05).Administration of ghrelin significantly increased the contraction amplitude of colonic circular muscle strips.but this effect was inhibited when the colonic circular muscle strips were pretreated by tetrodotoxin.ConclusionsGhrelin can accelerate colonic propulsive movement by activating growth hormone secretagogue receptor of cholinergic excitatory pathways and nitrergic nervous pathways in the enteric nervous system of colon.

Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don is a plant of the Catharanthus genus of Apocynaceae which has been reported to have therapeutic effects of detoxication and anticancer. In order to further study the alkaloid constituents of C. roseus, the aerial parts of the plant were extracted with 95% EtOH, and then treated with 2% H2SO4 and NH3H2O to obtain total alkaloids. The total alkaloids were separated and purified by column chromatography over silica gel and prepared by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of physicochemical properties and spectral data. A new alkaloid together with five known compounds were isolated and identified as vindolinine B (1), lochnericine (2), horhammericine (3), vindorosine (4), vindoline (5), and coronaridine (6). Compound 1 is a new compound and named as vindolinine B.

Objective To study the usefulness of combined flow cytometry (FCM) and polymerasechain reaction examination for clonal TCR gene rearrangements in the diagnosis of T-cell lymphoma (T-NHL). Methods Histopathologic features, immunohistochemistry, flow cytometric immunophenotyping, cytomorphologic evaluation and TCR gene rearrangements of 32 T-NHL were reviewed retrospectively. The control cases were 18 reactive lesions and 1 histiocytic necrotizing lymphaderitis. Results Out of 32 T-NHL,23 were diagnosed as T-NHL by FCM / TCR gene rearrangements. Of 19 control group, 17 were diagnosed as reactive lesions by FCM / TCR gene rearrangements. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 71.9%, 89.5% and 78.4%, respectively. Conclusions FCM / TCR gene rearrangement is a very important technique in diagnosing T-NHL. Thus, patients with fine needle aspiration cytology can be saved from having an invasive surgery.

Objective To investigate the action and mechanism of NF-κB pathway in up-regulating B cell-activating factor receptor (BAFF-R) expression in multiple myeloma cells induced by IFN-γ.Methods Activated NF-κB were detected with Western blot, while the expression of BAFF-R were measured with RT-PCR and ELISA, and investigated the effect of BAY11-7082 on transcription of BAFF-R mRNA and translation of protein in multiple myeloma cells stimulated by IFN-γ. Results IFN-γ can induce the degradation of IκB-α in time-dependent and dosage-dependent manner, and up-regulated BAFF-R expression in multiple myeloma cells. BAY11-7082, an NF-κB inhibitor, inhibited not only the transcription of BAFF-R mRNA but also the protein of regulated by IFN-γin dosage-dependent manner. Conclusion NFκB may play an important role in high expression of BAFF-R in multiple myeloma cells induced by IFN-γ.
