AFP from fetal serum and serum of patients with primary hepatic cancer were purified by affinity chromatography. Then, the lentil lectin-reactive and nonreactive variants of these purified glycoproteins were prepared by affinity chromatography with immobilized lectin. Glycopeptides and oligosaccharides were prepared from variants by protease treatment and hydrazinolysis, respectively, and subjected to carbohydrate and amino acid analysis. A small difference in the carbohydrate compositions of each variant was observed. Analysis of chemical compositions of AFP variants is useful for the differential diagnosis between benign liver diseases and primary hepatic cancer.

ObjectiveTo study the toxic effect of bupivacaine encapsulated in liposomes on spinal cord in rats.MethodsOne hundred and eight SD rats (200-225 g) in which intrathecal (IT) catheter was successfully implanted without complications were randomly divided into 6 groups ( n =18 each):control group (group C) ; liposome group (group L) ; 0.5％ and 1.0％ bupivacaine groups (groups B1 and B2 ) and 0.5％ and 1.0％ bupivacaine encapsulated in liposomes groups (groups LB1 and LB2 ).In groups L,B1,B2,LB1 and LB2,liposome,0.5 ％ bupivacaine,1.0 ％ bupivacaine,0.5 ％ liposomal bypivacaine and 1.0 ％ liposomal bupivacaine 20 μl were injected IT respectively once a day for 7 consecutive days,while in group C nothing was injected IT.Pain threshold was measured by mechanical stimulation of the plantar surface of hindpaw.Motor function of the hindlimbs was also assessed.The animals were sacrificed at 8 day after IT injection.The lumbar segment of the spinal cord was removed for microscopic examination,detection of neuronal apoptosis (by flow cytometry) and Fos protein expression (by immuno-histochemistry).Results1.0％ bupivacaine IT significantly increased the percentage of apoptotic neurons in group B2 as compared with control group.0.5％ and 1.0％ bupivacaine IT significantly increased the number Fos protein positive cells in group B1 and B2 as compared with group C.1.0％ bupivacaine IT induced severe histologic damage including shrinkage of nucleus and vacuole formation in mitochondria.Encapsulation of bupivacaine in liposomes significantly attenuated bupivacaine-induced increase in apoptosis and Fos protein expression and histologic damage in group LB2 as compared with group B2.ConclusionThe encapsulation in liposomes can decrease the neurotoxicity of 1.0 ％ bupivacaine administered IT in rats.

Objective To explore conduct disorder tendency and it's influence factors on secondary school students. Methods 669 students of grade 1 in Dezhou Vocational and Technical College were investigated by Conduct Disorder Tendency Questionnaire, Revised Version of MBI-SS and SRHMS Version1.0. Results The secondary vocational school students' scores on violation tendency, addiction tendency and aggression tendency were 11.51±4.08,5.90±2.68 and 6.68±2.63,and were significant different from vocational college students or high school students(addiction tendency:F(2, 1578)=7.48,P =0.001;aggression tendency:F(2, 1579)=24.40,P <0.001). There existed great capable difference of conduct disorder according to genders ( t(643)>3.85,P <0.001).Conduct disorder tendency of secondary vocational students' was positive correlated with their learning burnout (Pearson correlation coefficient was between 0.16 and 0.52 for each pair), but negative correlated with mental health(Pearson correlation coefficient was between -0.13 and -0.27 for each pair). The linear regression showed that some dimensions of learning burnout and self-rated mental health predicted students' conduct disorder tendency. Conclusion Conduct disorder tendency of secondary vocational students is affected by their learning burnout and mental health.

Objective To investigate the effect of liver function with portal vein occlusion (PVO) in various phases and the following restoration portal vein flow on intestinal mucosal cells. Methods Twenty-four healthy adults white Japanese rabbits were randomized into 1 control group and 2 experimental groups (according to portal vein clamping for 30 min and 45 min). Each experimental group's blood samples were collected from caval vein 1 h before operation, by the end of portal vein oc-cluded, 30 min, 60 rain after relief of portal vein blocking, then with restoration of portal vein flow for 2 h and rabbit guts were continuously cut to sections for HE, TUNEL staining and Bcl-2, Bax protein immunohistochemical staining to observe the injury of intestinal mucosa cell apoptosis and the relation-ship between the expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax. The levels of blood glutamate-pyruvate transaminase (ALT), glutamic oxalacetic transaminase (AST) were measured and compared. Results The levels of ALT, AST in the control group did not significantly change. Compared with control group, group B did not change significantly with PVO 30 rnin in liver enzyme and they were significantly increased after portal vein occlusion relief. The levels of ALT and AST were increased obviously at 45 min with PVO, then raised again. Down-regulation of Bcl-2 expression, up-regulation of Bax expression and the increased index of apoptotic cell were found in each experimental group. Conclusion It may be more safe with PVO for 30 min. But the following restoration portal vein flow will bring about ischemia-reperfusion injury that is mainly apoptosis in the small intestine. The index of apoptosis will be raised with time prolongation of PVO.

CXCR4, a receptor for stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1, also know as CXCL12) and a member of the chemokine receptor family, has been shown to play an important role in the proliferation, migration, invasion and metastasis of breast cancer cells. CXCR4 expression is an early event in breast cancer development and may serve as a biomarker for early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer. Expression of CXCR4 has been demonstrated to correlate with metastasis and poor prognosis in breast cancer. Inhibition of CXCR4 expression may be a potential target of breast cancer treatment.

Objective To investigate the effects of valsartan on insulin resistance of type 2 diabetes in patients with Ⅰ hypertension.Methods Newly diagnosed 152 patients of type 2 diabetes with Ⅰ hypertension were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.The treatment group and control group undergone lifestyle changes( diet and adequate exercise) for two weeks.After that,the control group were given Diltiazem,while the treatment group were given valsartan,an angiotensin receptor blocker(ARB) drugs.Both groups were treated for 8 weeks.Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and fasting plasma insulin (FINS) before and after treatment in both groups were determined.Homeostasis model assessment evaluation of insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR) and insulin sensitivity index (IAI) were carried out and compared between the two groups.Results After 8 weeks of treatment,HOMA-IR in the treatment group was significantly decreased compared with the control group ( P ＜ 0.01 ),while IAI was significantly increased( P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusion Application of valsartan in type 2 diabetes mellitus with Ⅰ hypertension can significantly improve the level of insulin resistance.

[Objective]To detect the effect of Etanercept on the Ti particles induced TNF-?IL-1 and IL-6 production by macrophage and to evaluate the validity of the etanercept on treatment of aseptic loosening of prosthesis.[Method]Separate and Cultivate mouse peritoneal macrophages were divide into 5 groups after 24 h.Group A was treated with M? alone,group B with M?+Ti particles,group C with M?+Ti particles + etanercept(10 ng/ml),group D with M? Ti particles + etanercept(100 ng/ml),group E with M? + Ti particles + etanercept(1000 ng/ml).After 18 h,the production of TNF-? IL-1 and IL-6 in culture supernatants was detected by ELISA.[Result]The levels of TNF-? IL-1 and IL-6 production were much higher in group B than those in group A,D,E(P0.05).[Conclusion]Is shows the Ti particles could stimulate M? to excrete profuse TNF-? IL-1 and IL-6 production,etanercept can significantly inhibited the production of TNF-? IL-1 and IL-6 secreted by Ti particles induced macrophages in a dose-dependent manner and hope to be a therapeutic candidate for the prevention of aseptic loosening.

Activities of N-acetyl-?-glucosaminidase (NAG) in sera of normal subjects and patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and other diseases were microquantitatively determined by spectrophotometry. The results showed that after the reaction for 4 h, activity of serum NAG in patients with HCC (397.10 ? 174.97 nmol/ml) was obviously higher than that in normal subjects (280.00 ? 63.83 nmol/ml). The elevation of serum NAG in HCC patients had no relationship with their serum a-fetoprotein. However, the increase of serum NAG activity in some patients with benign liver diseases was always accompanied by the abnormality in their liver functions. It is suggested that serum NAG has some referable values in the diagnosis of HCC.
