Objective To explore the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax in embryonic neuroepithelial cells in Golden hamster exposured to the teratogenic dose of alcohol. Methods The experimental pregnant golden hamsters were given ethanol through intraperitoneally injected, 5.8 g/kg body weight. The Bcl-2 and Bax expressions in neuroepithelial cells of experimental and control animals were detected with immunohistochemical and image analysis at 4,8,16,24,48 and 72 h time points after treatment. Results Bcl-2 and Bax proteins distributed in nuclear membranes and cytoplasm of the neuroepithelial cells as well as mesenchymal cells. In control groups, the expressions of these two kind proteins increased as the time passed at beginning, 16 hours after, came to the summit and then descended gradually. Compared with the control, the expressions of Bcl-2 in experimental groups were down-regulated, expressions of Bax were up-regulated except at 8 h time point. Conclusion Alcohol can induce down-regulation of the expression of Bcl-2 protein and up-regulation of the expression of bax protein, which may play a an important role in regulation of apoptosis in alcohol-induced neural tube malformation.

Objective To compare MSCT with routing X-ray, CT and appraise their applications to fractures in forensic identification. Methods366 cases which had got routing X-ray or CT examination were examined by thin slice scanning with MSCT and all of the data were processed with MPR, see-through and SSD method. Accurate diagnosis rate and misdiagnosis & underdiagnosis rate were calculated and analyzed by Chi-square test. ResultsThe accurate diagnosis rates of MSCT in nasal fracture, rib fracture, limb or joint fracture, orbital fracture and cranial fracture were higher than that of X-ray or routing CT (P0.05). The total accurate diagnosis rates of X-ray, routing CT and MSCT were 59.17%, 70.27% and 99.45%, respectively. There were significant differences (P

Conclusion The incidence rate of HIZ in lumbar disc is higher.Posterior and inferior AF of discs and lower motive segments have more risk of HIZs.It could develop in single motive segment or multi-segments at one time.

Objective To investigate the possible mechanisms of teratogenesis caused by passive smoking, temporospatial changes in surface carbohydrates of the embryonic neural epithelium and the mesenchyme around it were explored. Methods The pregnant golden hamsters were randomly divided into the treated group and the control groups. In the chamber made by ourself for passive smoking experiment, the animals of the treated group were exposed to smoke from embryonic day 4 to 7, 3 times per day for 4 consecutive days. At twelve o'clock and eighteen o'clock of embryonic day 8, eight o'clock of embryonic day 9 and eight o'clock of embryonic day 10 respectively, the pregnant golden hamsters of both treated group and control group were sacrificed, the uteri were removed and embedded routinely with paraffin, sectioned transversely in series. The sections of each group were stained with immunohistochemical ABC method and concannavalin agglutinin (ConA) and ulex europaeus agglutinin (UEA) were used as molecule probes to conduct the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the fibronectin and the related surface carbohydrates of the embryonic neural epithelium and the mesenchyme around it. Results During embryonic day 8 to10 of golden hamsters fibronectin reduced(F=30.168,P

Objective To study the characteristic of salvianolic acid(SA) binding to bovine serum albumin(BSA) and the structure-performance relationship.Methods The interactions between BSA and four natural SA(SAⅠ,rosmaric acid;SAⅡ,lithosperic acid;SAⅢ,salvianolic acid A;and SAⅣ,salvianolic acid B) were investigated by fluorescence and ultraviolet spectroscopy.Results The intrinsic fluorescence of BSA was quenched by SA via forming SA-BSA complexes and non-radiation energy transfer.The parameters of SA-BSA binding process,such as the static apparent association constant KA,the number of binding site n,the efficiency of energy transfer E,the spatial distance r were obtained,and the thermodynamic constants ?G,?H,and ?S were calculated.Conclusion The results indicate that SAⅢ bounds to BSA mainly through a hydrophobic force and the other three SA-BSA interactions are mainly driven by hydrogen bond and Van der Waals' force.Y,a comprehensive binding parameter constructing from the equation Y=lg (KA?E?n/r),could be used to reflect the interaction extent of SA-BSA system.The Y value changes with the number of free phenolic hydroxyl and molecule volume and decreases in the order of SAⅢ→SAⅣ→SAⅡ→SAⅠ.The results from correlation analysis indicate that it could be possible to estimate SA-BSA binding extent from hydrophobic parameter clogP and topo-polar surface area per unit of molecular weight tPSA/Mr of SA molecule.

AIM: To make a comparison between 64-multidetector computed tomography (64-MDCT) and coronary angiography (CAG) for assessing the clinical significance of coronary lesions and the coincidence rate of these two methods. METHODS: From May 2005 to July 2006, totally 85 patients, who were suspected or diagnosed as coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, were performed with both 64-MDCT and CAG in the General Hospital of Chinese PLA. They included 64 males and 21 females, aged 41-83 years, with a mean of 61 years. Informed consents were obtained from all the patients. Coronary artery stenosis was detected with the stenosis rate of diameter method and area method, which was calculated by 64-MDCT and analysis software for vessels. Coronary luminal diameter was evaluated as normal, mild stenosis (25%-49%), mild-moderate stenosis (50%-74%), moderate-severe stenosis (75%-94%), severe stenosis (95%-99%), and occlusion (100%). RESULTS: The 64-MDCT images were evaluated for the existence of occlusions or significant stenosis (≥50% lumen reduction) in native coronary arteries. Its coincidence rate with CAG was 89% in left coronary artery main stem, 93% in left anterior descending coronary artery, 68% in left circumflex coronary artery, and 48% in right coronary artery. CONCLUSION: The 64-MDCT has a high diagnostic accuracy in detecting coronary artery stenosis, and is identical with CAG in the assessment of left coronary artery main stem and left anterior descending coronary artery. Thus it is potential for the clinical application on the evaluation of coronary artery stenosis, qualitative and quantitative detection of coronary atherosclerotic plaque.
