Objective:To explore therapeutic effect of pharyngeal treatment machine (PTM) combined resuscitating acupuncture (RA) on patients with dysphagia after stroke.Methods: A total of 98 stroke patients with dysphagia were selected.According to random number table, they were randomly and equally divided into pure pharyngeal treatment group (received pure PTM therapy based on routine treatment) and combined treatment group (received RA based on pure pharyngeal treatment group).Video fluorography (VFG) score and swallow-quality of life (SWAL-QOL) score before and after treatment, and total effective rate were evaluated and compared between two groups.Results: Compared with before treatment, there was significant rise in VFG score, and significant reduction in SWAL-QOL score in both groups after treatment, P<0.01 all;compared with pure pharyngeal treatment group after treatment, there was significant rise in VFG score [(5.46±2.04) scores vs.(6.54±2.75) scores], and significant reduction in SWAL-QOL score [(741.33±25.92) scores vs.(632.54±26.77) scores] in combined treatment group, P=0.032, 0.001 respectively.Total effective rate of combined treatment group was significantly higher than that of pure pharyngeal treatment group (93.88% vs.75.51%), P=0.014.Conclusion: Compared with pure pharyngeal treatment machine, pharyngeal treatment machine combined resuscitating acupuncture possesses better therapeutic effect for recovery of swallowing function, which is worth extending.

The main goal for the foundation of national life science and technology talents cultivating base(biopharmaceutical base) is building up perfect talents education systems to create elites with originality and carving-out ability.4 aspects including optimizing courses?improving teaching technics?enhancing practicing ability and reforming pattern of running school were mentioned to explore the cultivating system of biopharmaceutical base.

Objective:To design a kind of head holder for small animal imaging without artifact. Methods: The head holder was designed for small animal imaging according to rodent head stereotaxic apparatus with lightweight and easy molding material (polymethyl methacrylate). The holder can be easily made with ordinary lathe and can be easily operated in small animal imaging device. Results:After the trial in small animal PET-CT, the holder can effectively solve the problems in small animal imaging such as the artifact caused by tiny displacement, tilt head position, deviating from the central field of view and respiratory depression. Conclusion: The small animal imaging device was designed in simple structure to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology. The operation of the device is simple, which is worthy of popularization head holder of application.

Recombinant plasmids pHY-PA, pBBR-PA were constructed in which genes pdc and adhB were placed under the control of tac promoter, respectively, and had successfully expressed in Escherichia coli. Then these recombinant plasmids were electroporated into Lactobacillus strains for ethanol production. Preliminary ethanol fermentation using these Lactobacillus strains and their recombinants was carried out using 42℃ as fermentation temperature. The results indicated that introducing pdc and adhB, ethanologenic pathway was successfully constructed in L.plantanum CICIM B0080. 0.4% (V/V) ethanol was detected at the end of fermentation with 6.7% glucose, and that is 67-fold as the wild-type B0080. Two-fold of ethanol production was detected in L.amylovorus B0112 (pHY-PA) and L.acidophilus B0068 (pBBR-PA). Introducing both pdc and adhB, and meanwhile knock-outing the lactate dehydrogrnase gene may better convert carbon flux to ethanologenic direction.

Objective To observe the therapeutic efficacy of low-frequency electrical stimulation (LFES) plus acupuncture in treating deglutition disorders after cerebral stroke. Method Seventy-six patients were randomized into two groups. The treatment group (38 cases) was intervened by LFES plus acupuncture;the control group (38 cases) was by LFES. Result The water drinking test scores were significantly changed after the treatment in both groups (P<0.05); after the intervention, there were significant differences in comparing the water drinking test score, improvement score, and therapeutic efficacy grading between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion LFES and acupuncture are both effective in treating deglutition disorders after cerebral stroke, and the combination of the two methods can enhance the clinical efficacy.

Objective To investigate the differentiation from human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) into neuron-like cells. Methods hMSC were separated from rib marrow with Ficoll-Paque reagent and expanded in culture medium. hMSC were induced to differentiate into neurons with DMEM/BHA/DMSO or DMEM/monothioglycerol, respectively. Neuron-specific enolase (NSE), neurofilament (NF), nestin, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results hMSC were expanded to be undifferentiated cells in culture for more than 10 passages. The isolated and cultured MSC comprised a single phenotypic population and displayed a fibroblast-like morphology. Simple method induced hMSC exhibiting a neuronal phenotype, with a positive expression of NSE, NF-M and nestin at 5 hours. But the neuron-like cells did not express the glial astrocyte marker GFAP. Conclusion It suggests that hMSC can be differentiated into neurons in vitro .

Eukaryotic expression vector containing PTEN gene was transfected into SHG44 cell under mediation of lipofectamine, and positive cell clones were selected and amplified. Expression of PTEN gene was detected by in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry. Flow cytometry, electron microscope and other methods were adopted to measure the effects of PTEN on cell cycle, ultrastructure, and cell growth of the transfected glioma cells, as well as on tumorigenicity in nude mice. The results showed that PTEN gene and protein were expressed in the glioma cells transfected with PTEN gene. The progression of cell cycle was arrested from G1 to S phase. The growth of cells transfected with PTEN gene in nude mice was dramatically inhibited compared with the parent SHG44 cells. This experiment suggested that the growth of SHG44 glioma cells could be arrested at G1/S phase, and it could be significantly suppressed by exogenous PTEN gene.

Purpose: To detect the mRNA expression of epithelial skeleton protein CK19 in the peripheral blood of patients with colorectal cancer; to study its relationship to other clinicopathological parameters; and to discuss if the detection can help post-operative adjuvant therapy. Methods: A total of 39 blood samples from colorectal cancer patients were included in the study. Specific RT-PCR primers were used to avoid the amplification of pseudogenes. Results: Of 39 patients 31 showed CK19 mRNA expression (79.5%) . The patients in Dukes stage C and D showed higher frequency of CK19 mRNA expression than that in Dukes A and B (P

Objective To investigate the significance of serum IP-10 levels in different types of diabetic patients. Methods Serum IP-10 level in 78 cases with type 1 diabetes,49 cases with type 2 diabetes and 33 cases of healthy controls was measured with ELISA assays. Type 1 diabetic patients were divided into classic type 1 diabetes (n=39) and latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA,n=39) according to their disease process,and they were also divided into autoimmune type 1 diabetes (n=58) and idiopathic type 1 diabetes (n=20).Type 2 diabetic patients,according to carotid intima-media thickness (IMT),were divided into patients with (n=24) or without atherosclerosis (n=25). Results 1) Serum IP-10 levels were not statistically different among type 1 diabetes,type 2 diabetes and healthy controls. 2) Serum IP-10 concentrations in autoimmune type 1 diabetes with positive islet autoantibody were higher than those in healthy controls(184.96?104.48pg/ml vs 146.10?74.61pg/ml,P=0.03);while there were no difference in type 1 diabetes with variable disease durations. 3) No difference in IP-10 levels was found between type 2 patients with(173.5?69.6pg/ml) and without atherosclerosis (188.5?79.7 pg/ml). Conclusions Serum IP-10 level is augmented in autoimmune type 1 diabetes.
