ObjectiveTo observe the spinal cord pathological change and hindlimbs motor function of rats after decompression on chronic spinal cord injury.Methods 30 Wistar rats were divided randomly into conrol group ( n =5 ),compression group ( n =5 ) and decompression group ( n =20 ),then the decompression group was subdivided into 4 parts as 1 week,2 weeks,4 weeks,6 weeks after decompression.Decompression was made after 30 days of chronic spinal cord copression injury,rats'motor function was detected by inclined plate experiment,the histopathological change,Nissl body and neural cells apoptosis in different spinal cord sections were assessed by the stainings of HE,Nissl and TUNEL.ResultsCompared with control group,the behavior testing showed all rats in compression group presented with weakness of muscle power in their hindlimbs (P ＜ 0.01 ),but the hindlimbs motor functions recovered from the first week after decompression and the difference had statistical significance compared with the compression group(P＜ 0.01 ).Then the rats hindlimbs functions recovered gradually later on.The staining of HE,Nissl and TUNEL showed that the injured spinal cord section performed no improvement at the first 2 weeks after decompression,the neural apoptosis index(24.31 ± 4.73 )％ decreased until the forth week after decompression(P＜0.05).The spinal cord segments closed to the injured part recovered in early stage.At 1 week after decompression,lots of Nissl bodys were observed in spinal anterior horn,the neural apoptosis index in the 2 sections closed to the injured part were ( 15.21 ± 4.81 ) ％ and ( 16.21 ± 3.98 ) ％,which declined observably compared with compression group(P ＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionAfter decompression on chronic spinal cord injury,the recovery of rats'hindlimbs motor function in early stage is probably benefited by the functional compensation of the spinal cord segments closed to the injured section.

Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)has high incidence rate,recurrence rate after surgecal treat-ment,as well as fatality rate in China .HCC is not sensitive to radiotherapy or chemotherapy and no effective treat-ment is available for HCC patients at advanced stage .Sorafenib is the first effective molecularly targeted drug for the treatment of HCC,which represents a milestone in the treatment of HCC .However,it also shows drug resist-ance during clinical application .Therefore,it is important to investigate the mechanism of drug resistance and its molecular markers for HCC .In this review ,we summarize the current status of the studies in these fields .

The methods of diagnostic imaging for pulmonary embolism is diversified. However, the different characteristic features of diagnostic imaging and diagnostic accuracy impressive influenced the choice of selection by clinicians. Furthermore, the principle and indication of interventional therapy would have great impending force on the outcomings. This article presents a comprehension of diagnostic imagings and interventional therapy for pulmonary embolization.

OsRacD belonging to rice Rho family of the small GTP binding proteins,is a pivotal gene involved in rice photoperiod fertility conversion of photoperiod sensitive genic male sterile rice,which influences rice fertility via controlling the pollen tube growth.T20N site-directed mutation was introduced into its highly conserved G1 motif by PCR-mediated method to mimic its GDP-binding state based on the sequences alignment and conserved domains analysis.The prokaryotic expression vector of OsRacD and T20N-OsRacD were constructed,and the His6 tag fused proteins were expressed and purified from E.coli.After identified by Western blot,the GTP hydrolysis activities were detected.The results showed that the GTPase activities of T20N-OsRacD were significantly reduced comparing with that of OsRacD,suggested that OsRacD and T20N-OsRacD have different biochemical characteristics.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the injury stress responses caused by ischemia reperfusion and its effects on the salivary secretory function of rat submandibular glands.

METHODSAn in situ ischemia reperfusion experimental model of rat submandibular glands was developed. The rat submandibular glands were subjected to 90 min of ischemia without denervation followed by reperfusion for 1, 12, 24, and 72 h. Salivary secretion, histological changes, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and cellular apoptosis of the involved submandibular glands were detected after reperfusion.

RESULTSThe secretory function of the glands decreased at 1 and 12 h, and the saliva secretion gradually had the same value as that of the control sample 72 h after reperfusion. Increasing inflammatory cells infiltration, cellular atrophy, and tissue edema were observed especially after reperfusion for 12 h. The level of ROS and the number of apoptotic cells exhibited the same tendency, and higher ROS levels and more apoptosis cells 1 and 12 h after reperfusion were observed.

CONCLUSIONOur study suggests that ischemia reperfusion can cause a series of injury stress responses in submandibular glands, which might have an important function in the early phase dysfunction of transplanted submandibular glands.

Objective:To investigate the expression and clinical significance of Nusap1 in hepatical carcinoma. Methods:The expression of Nusap1 protein in 61 specimens of hepatical carcinoma was examined by immunohistochemistry. Based on the levels of Nusap1 expression, the 61 specimens were divided into a high Nusap1 expression group and a low Nusap1 expression group. The correlation between Nusap1 expression with clinicopathologic features and prognosis of hepatical carcinoma was analyzed. Results:TherateofhighNusap1expressionwas54.1%inhepaticalcarcinoma.TherateofhighNusap1 expression was 21.3%in noncarcinoma, with signiifcant difference between the 2 groups (P<0.01).Nusap1 overexpression had signiifcant correlation with histological differentiation, tumor size, liver cirrhosis,lymphaticmetastasis,tumorthrombiandearlyrecurrence(P<0.05),butnotwithsex,age,AFP level,tumornumber,TNMclassificationandtumorencapsulation(P>0.05).Survivalanalysissuggested thatthe6monthand12monthnoncarcinomasurvivalratewassignificantlylowerinthehighNusap1 expression group [33.3%(11/33), 17.9%(5/33)] than that in the low Nusap1 expression group [89.3%(25/28), 53.6%(15/28);P<0.005]. Conclusion:Nusap1 is overexpressed in hepatical carcinoma and is a valuable prognostic factor for hepatical carcinoma.

Objective To analyze the risk factors of hypoxemia after coronary artery bypasses grafting (CABG) along with cardiopulmonary bypasses and to understand the regular pattern and characteristics of hypoxemia after CABG. Methods The risk factors of hypoxemia were studied by one way analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis in 86 patients with hypoxemia after CABG along with cardiopulmonary bypass. Results One way analysis indicated that hypoxemia after CABG along with cardiopulmonary bypass was related to senility ( ≥ 65 years ), smoking history, diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD), left ventricular ejection fraction ( LVEF ＜ 45 % ), obesity before operation, transfusion ( ≥ 1000 ml );multivariate analysis indicated that pulmonary dysfunction before operation, longer extracorporeal circulation time ( ≥2 h), hypoalbuminemia and pulmonary infection were independent risk factors of hypoxemia after CABG along with cardiopulmonary bypass. Conclusion Multiple risk factors contributed to hypoxemia after CABG along with cardiopulmonary bypass. Increase the awareness of risk factors of perioperative hypoxemia may guide the prevention and treatment, even alleviate or avoid the hypoxemia postoperatively.

Objective To evaluate therapeutic effect of zoledronic acid combined with chemotherapy in patients with cancer and bone metastases. Methods 60 patients with cancer and skeletal me-tastases were devided randomly into tow groups, 30 patients received zoledronic acid combined with chemotherapy, 30 patients only received chemotherapy. Cheotherapeutic program of tow groups were same. Results Response rate of bone pain relief was 83. 3% in zoledronic acid combined with chemotherapeutic group and 56.7% in chemotherapy alone group. Response rate of skeletal metastases was 53. 3% in zoledronic acid combined with chemotherapy group and 20. 0% in chemotherapy alone group. Response rate of movement capacity improvement was 73. 3% in zoledronic acid combined with chemotherapeutic group and 30. 0% in chemotherapy alone group. The therapeutic effect of zoledronic acid combined with chemotherapy group was better than that of chemotherapy alone group( P
