Objective To explore curative effects of coracolavicar ligament reconstructed with artificical tendon on treatment of complete acromioclavicular joint dislocation.Methods 32 patients with complete acromioclavicular joint dislocation received artificial tendon graft, 19 cases of whose implanted flexible carbonfiber tendon,and the others were treated with human-hair keratin artificial tendon (HHKAT). All patients were given bu internal fixation with Kirschner pins for 6 weeks after the operation.Results Fellowed-up for 4 months to 30 months showed the acromiclavicular join reduction and recovery of the anatomical relation of acromioclavicular joint checked by X-rayrecovered. According to karlsson scores, 21 cases graded excellent, 10 cases good and only one case bad, the excellent and good rate of recovery was 96 9%.Conclutions With the internal fixation with Kirschner pins in short term,and plus artificial tendon reconstructing coracoclavicalar ligament for patients with complete acromioclavicular joint dislocation, which had a little wound and a good curative effect, was easy to be performed and have worth in clinical application.

Microbes are important composition of ecology system. Nowadays it's very important to study the microbial diversity and community structure, especially in water bioremediation by microbiological resources. Modern molecular biology techniques provide effective methods to study the microbial ecosystem in aqua. Several techniques were summarized, including 16S rDNA clone library, DGGE (Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis), RFLP (Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism) and T-RFLP (Terminal Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism), while their application to analyze water microbial diversity were introduced.

To study the mechanisms of total flavonoid from Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma (TFGR) and its ingredient isoliquiritigenin (ISL) on their regulation of M2 phenotype polarization of macrophages. IL-4 (60 μg x L(-1)) induced RAW264.7 cells for 6 h to establish the M2 macrophage model. TFGR and ISL restrained breast cancer cells migration with the aid of M2 macrophages in vitro. TFGR and ISL inhibited gene and protein expression of Arg-1, up-regulated gene of HO-1 and protein expression of iNOS, enhanced the expression of microRNA 155 and its target gene SHIP1, meanwhile down-regulated.the phosphorylation of STAT3 and STAT6. So TFGR and ISL were the bioactive fraction and ingredient in Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma to reverse M2 phenotype macrophages polarization. TFGR and ISL inhibited the promotion of M2 macrophages to breast cancer cells migration in vitro, STAT signal pathways and miR155 were partly involved.

Aim To establish and evaluate the simple and effective animal model of rheumatoid arthritis in SD rats induced by heat-killed mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra(Mtb).Methods SD rats were immunized s.c.at the base of the tail with Mtb(1 mg/rat) in mineral oil,and then body weight,blood routine,clinical signs of arthritis were observed regularly.And also hind paw volume in SD rats with AA was tested.Meanwhile,T-lymphocyte subset was determined by flow cytometry in peripheral blood,the level of TNF-?in serum and IL-1 and IL-6 and vascular endothe-lial growth factor(VEGF) in joint tissue were tested by ELISA.The ankle pathological change and radiographic evidence of the hind paws of SD rats were observed to evaluate the AA model effects and availability in SD rats.Results When compared with normal control rats,the total number of white blood cells,platelets and monocytes in peripheral blood and ratio of CD4/CD8 was markedly raised after immunization with Mtb.But body weight of model rats was significantly low from day 14 to 28 after injection of Mtb.The inflammatory arthritic lesions such as edema and erythema in the paws appeared after 9～10 d.The peak of inflammation was 14～16 d.The level of TNF-?in serum and IL-1,IL-6 and VEGF in joint tissue was significantly higher in SD rats with Mtb than that in normal control rats at d 28.The histopathological examination revealed cellular infiltration,synovial and cartilage hyperplasia in ankle joints of SD rats.Conclusions The model induced by Mtb in SD rats is more similar in clinical characterization of rheumatoid arthritis in human being.It is a more efficient and simpler manipulative procedure for screening of new anti-arthritis drugs and experimental studying of anti-rheumatoid arthritis.

To study the interaction of drugs of different properties, namely puerarin, borneol and catalpol in the process of in- clusion, in order to explore the inclusion regularity of multi-component and multi-property traditional Chinese medicine compound in- clusions. With HP-β-CD as the inclusion material, the freeze-drying method was used to prepare the inclusion. The inclusion between puerarin, borneol and catalpol was tested by measuring the inclusion concentration, DSC and X-ray diffraction. According to the find- ings, when insoluble drugs puerarin and borneol were included simultaneously, and puerarin was overdosed, puerarin included was almost equal to puerarin included, and borneol was not included. When puerarin was under-dosed, and HP-β-CD was overdosed, borne- ol was included, and the simultaneous inclusion was lower than the separate inclusion of borneol. When water-soluble drug catalpol was jointly included with puerarin or borneol, the simultaneous inclusion was almost the same with their separate inclusion, without charac- teristic peak of catalpol in DSC and X-ray diffraction patterns. There is a competition in the simultaneous inclusion between water-solu- ble drugs puerarin and borneol and a stronger competition in puerarin. The water-soluble drug catalpol could be included with HP-β-CD with no impact on the inclusion of puerarin or borneol.

Objective To find a proper way for accurate results on completing blood counts.Methods Based on the results from automatic hematology analyzer XE-2100,set up the criteria for blood cell microscopic examination.1368 blood specimen were detected and the results were analyzed according to the criteria.Statistics on the data were made to evaluate the accordance between warnings of analyzer and manual examination,likewise the reliability of the criteria.Results Comparing with microscopic examination,analyzer warning on low PLT has good accordance,Kappa value was 0.95,U value was 35.19,P

Hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP)-induced sodium dodecyl sulfate/dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (SDS/DTAB) catanionic surfactant coacervate extraction method coupled with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to detect the migration of phthalates from disposable tablewares to drinking water. The concentration factors are larger than 82 and extraction recoveries over 53%for water samples spiked with 100 or 200 ng/mL phthalates. Limit of detection is in the range of 1.0–2.6 ng/mL. Good linearity with correlation coefficients larger than 0.9985 is obtained in the concentration of 20–1500 or 40–3000 ng/mL. Relative recoveries are from 82.4%to 123.6%for water samples spiked with 30/60, 250/500, and 1500/3000 ng/mL phthalates, respectively. Relative standard deviations (RSDs) are 0.4%–7.4% for intraday precision (n ? 5) and 0.6%–7.8% for interday precision (n ? 3). Four of studied phthalates are found in the drinking water samples prepared from four kinds of tablewares.

Ribonucleic acid (RNA) medicines have strong therapeutic potential for numerous rare genetic illnesses and malignancies because of its exact programmability based on Watson-Crick base pairing principle and unique ability to regulate gene expression. However, RNA medicines still have limitations in many areas, including stability, half-life time, immunogenicity, organ selectivity, cellular uptake and endosomal escape efficiency despite their great therapeutic potentials. This review briefly introduced numerous RNA medications [mostly messenger RNA (mRNA), small interfering RNA (siRNA), microRNA (miRNA) and antisense oligonucleotide (ASO)] that have intrigued of researchers in recent years, as well as their action mechanism in vivo. A number of delivery techniques, such as chemical modification, ligands coupling and nanocarriers have been proposed. The manufacture and applications of lipid nanoparticle, polymer nanoparticle and exosomes were discussed in depth. The goal of this work is to give a theoretical foundation and design concepts for the development of effective and safe RNA delivery technology, as well as to facilitate RNA therapeutic clinical translation.
