AIM: To establish an identification method of Fritillaria based on near-infrared diffuse reflectance spectroscopy(NIRDRS). METHODS: Seven certified Fritillaria,i.e.,F.przewalskii Matim,F.cirrhosa D.Don,F.unibraacteate Hsiaaoet.K.C.Hsia,F.thunbergii Mig,F.pallidiflora,F.ussuriensis Matin and F.kupehensis Hsiaet K.C.Hsia,and three fake "Fritillaria",i.e.,F.thunbergii Varchekiugensis Hsiaet K.C.Hsia,Tulipa edulis and Iphigeniaindica were dried,grinded and sieved before their NIRDRS spectra were detected.Cluster analysis,convolution transform-visualization-similarity analysis were further employed to(identify) the NIRDRS of the ten herbal medicines. RESULTS: The zero-order NIRDRS spectra of the ten herbal medicines were too similar to be identified respectively.The cluster analysis helped differentiate the three fake "Fritillaria" from seven certified Fritillaria,but the identification between the certified Fritillaria remained dissatisfactory.The convolution transform-visualization-similarity analysis magnified and then quantified the minute differences between the certified Fritillaria,which significantly improved their identification. CONCLUSION: NIRDRS is a direct,non-destructive analytical method of solid samples.Coupled with information treatment techniques,DIRDRS provides a new identification method of crude traditional Chinese medicines.

Objective To investigate the function of metalloproteinase 2 (MMP 2) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP 2) in neonatal acute lung injury(ALI) caused by LPS in rats. Methods Eighty eight newborn rats of 7 days were randomly divided into eight groups: control, 0.5 h, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 16 h, 24 h after LPS was injected. The changes of lung pathology in newborn rats were observed and the changes of MMP 2 and TIMP 2 expression were measured by immunohistochemistry and RT PCR. Results Pulmonary hemorrhage was seen in newborn rats caused by LPS. The expression of MMP 2 mRNA and protein were 0.523?0.030 and 126.20?17.98; The expression of MMP 2 mRNA increased and the highest level was at 4 h(0.826?0.567, t=3.77, P

ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors associated with macrovascular disease in patients with newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes. MethodsAccording to arterial intima-media thickness(IMT)measured by color duplex ultrasonography,232 cases of newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients were divided into two groups:one group were 95 cases with macrovascular disease(MD),and the other group were 137 cases without macrovascular disease (non-MD).Then various clinical data between the two groups were compared and the correlated risk factors for macrovascular disease were analyzed. Results (1)95 patients(40.9%)showed macrovascular disease in 232 patients.(2)Age,BMI,SI,systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,TC,LDL-C,CRP and 24h UmAlb were significantly higher in MD group compared with those in non-MD group(all P＜0.05);But ISI was significantly lower in MD group compared with that in non-MD group(P＜0.05).(3)Pearson correlation analysis showed that risk factors were old age,BMI,smoking,higher systolic blood pressure,higher diastolic blood pressure,TC,LDL-C,CRP and microalbuminuria. ConclusionMacrovascular disease was related to many factors.It was important to control some risk factors earlier for preventing the happening and progress of macrovascular disease.

Objective To investigate the effect of simulated microgravity on the proliferation and differentiation of the human megakaryocyte cells in vitro. Methods The fourth generation rotating cell culture system (RCCS-4) was used to generate the simulated microgravity environment. The cell viability was assessed by trypan blue staining method. The proliferation of cells was assessed by cell counting method and CCK8 method. The CD41+/CD61+ cells rate and the cells cycle were detected by flow cytometry. The expression levels of thrombopoietin receptor (c-mpl) and transcription factors were detected with RT-PCR. Results After 24, 48, 72 h, culture under simulated microgravity resulted in a significant decrease in the cell number , proliferative activity, cells in the G2/M phase and levels of c-mpl mRNA expression in comparison with that under the normal gravity (P < 0.05). After 48 h and 72 h culture, CD41+/CD61+ cells ratio decreased and RUNX-1 mRNA expression was down-regulated in cells of the group SMG compared with that of the group NG (P < 0.05). Conclusion Microgravity can inhibit the proliferation and differentiation of human megakaryocyte cells in vitro. The mechanism may be that TPO/c-mpl pathway was inhibited by down regulating the expression of c-mpl which transcriptional inhibition lead to.

Objective To observe the protective effects of roscovitine on the podocyte injury induced by endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) caused by tunicamycin. Methods The differentiated podocytes cultured at 37℃were randomly di-vided into:(1) Control group, DMSO group and tunicamycin group (TM, 1.0μmol/L). The treatment was given for 3, 6 and 12 hours in three groups. (2) For control group, tunicamycin group, tunicamycin+roscovitine group (20, 40μmol/L, TM+ROS), the treatment was given for 12 hours. The podocyte apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry and TUNEL method. The ex-pressions of Cdk5, GRP78, Caspase-12 and CHOP were detected by Western blot assay. Results (1) Compared with con-trol group and DMSO group, the podocyte apoptosis was increased significantly in a time dependent manner after tunicamy-cin treatment in TM group;the protein expressions of Cdk5, GRP78, Caspase-12 and CHOP were also up-regulated signifi-cantly in TM group (P<0.05). (2) Flow cytometry and TUNEL analysis showed that tunicamycin induced apoptosis in podo-cytes, which was significantly inhibited by roscovitine in a concentration dependent manner in TM+ROS group as compared to that of TM group (P<0.05). The protein expressions of GRP78, Caspase-12 and CHOP were also significantly decreased in a concentration dependent manner in TM+ROS group compared to those of TM group (P<0.05). Conclusion Roscovi-tine, the inhibitor of Cdk5, can reduce the podocyte apoptosis induced by tunicamycin. The protective effects of roscovitine on podocytes can be a novel approach of treating diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To investigate the potential role of Spa-1 in the development and metastasis of EMPD.Methods Tissue specimens were resected from 17 patients with primary EMPD,12 patients with invasive EMPD and 9 normal human controls.Immunohistochemistry was performed to measure the expression of spa-1 and Ki-67.Results Positive staining was observed for Spa-1 in cytoplasm,and for Ki-67 in cell nuclei.Spa-1 and Ki-67 were weakly expressed in the basal layer of normal skin.The expression of Spa-1 and Ki-67 in EMPD tissue were statistically higher than those in the normal control tissue (both P<0.01).Increased expression of Spa-1 was noted in invasive EMPD tissue compared with in situ EMPD tissue.The expression of Spa-1 was positively correlated with that of Ki-67 in the tissue of EMPD.Conclusion Spa-1 may play a certain role in the initiation and progression of EMPD.

Objective To study the incidence and distribution features of spontaneous decrease of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA level and its correlative factors in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients.Methods The incidence,demographic features and distribution of different clinical types of spontaneous decrease of HBV DNA were investigated with clinical epidemiological study in 315 CHB or live cirrhosis (LC) patients.The correlative factors of spontaneous decrease of HBV DNA were analyzed by Logistic regression methods.Results Among the 315 patients,171 patients (54.3%) underwent spontaneous decrease of HBV DNA within 12 weeks,of which 61 patients (19.4%) had undeteetable HBV DNA (＜3 lg copy/mL).The stratified study showed that the incidence of spontaneous decrease of HBV DNA in young patients was 58.6% (116/198 cases),which was higher than that (25.0%,2/8 cases) in juvenile patients (X2 = 2.956,P=0.048).The incidence of decrease in relatively more severe patients was higher than that in relatively less severe patients (all X2 in significant groups＞3.84,all P＜0.05),and the highest incidence was 78.7% (48/61 cases) in patients with chronic severe hepatitis B.The incidence of spontaneous decrease of HBV DNA in hepatitis E virus (HEV)/HBV coinfected patients was 75.0% (21/28 cases),which was higher than that (51.8%,146/282 cases) in single HBV-infected patients (X2 =5.530,P=0.019).The incidence of spontaneous decrease of HBV DNA in patients with alanire aminotransferase (ALT)＞400 U/L was 61.8%(102/165 cases),which was higher than that (46.0%,69/150 cases) in patients with ALT≤400 U/L (X2 =7.922,P=0.005).The incidence of spontaneous decrease of HBV DNA in patients with TBil＞200 μmol/L was 68.7% (79/115 cases),which was higher than that (46.0%,92/200 cases) in patients with TBil≤200 μmol/L (X2 = 15.155,P=0.000).The multivariate Logistic analysis demonstrated that chronic severe hepatitis B,ALT＞ 400 U/L and TBil＞ 200 μmol/L were the correlative factors with spontaneous decrease of HBV DNA in CHB or LC patients (all OR＞1,all P＜0.05).Conclusions The spontaneous decrease of HBV DNA level is a common phenomenon during the natural course (immune clearance phase) of CHB or LC patients.Patients with sever conditions,elevated levels of ALT and total bilirubin (TBil) tend to develop spontaneous decrease of HBV DNA.
