AIM : To investigate the effects of FFBHQH on the level of expression of caspase 3 protein of middle cerebral artery in ischemia / reperfusion model and to study its mechanisms in preventing and treating ischemic apoplexy. METHODS : The model of focal cerebral ischemia / reperfusion in rats was established with the suture occluded method. The effects of FFBHQH on the behavior obstacle of rats after MCAO/R 24, 48, and 72 h were observed, and the levels of expression of caspase 3 protein were observed by immunoassay method in rats treated with FFBHQH after the cerebral ischemia / reperfusion. RESULTS : Different degrees of behavior obstacle appeared in rats after MCAO/R 24,48,72 h, and FFBHQH reduced the behavior obstacle grade. After MCAO/R, the expression of caspase 3 protein increased obviously, but FFBHQH reduced the expression. CONCLUSION : FFBHQH can prevent and treat the ischemic apoplexy, and the mechanisms may relate to the calcium antagonism and the prevention of the apoptosis correlated gene such as caspase 3 after cerebral ischemia.

AIM: To observe the targeting thrombolytic effect of a monoclonal antibody specific for cross-linked fibrin connected with liposomal urokinase(UK) in the model of rabbit artery thrombosis.METHODS: Preparation of thrombolytic solutions: with the method of controllable dialysis eradicator in liposomat, empty liposomes, liposomally entrapped urokinase and liposomally entrapped urokinase linked with D-dimer antibody were made. Experiment in vivo: a rabbit thrombosis model of abdominal aorta was induced by ferric chloride. When the blood pressure fall to the lowest, 5 different solutions were separately imported (PBS, maximal-level UK, Ab/Lip/UK, Ab/UK-Lip, Ab-UK-Lip) and observed for 40 min continuously. RESULTS: The varieties of 5 groups blood pressures were analyzed with q-test. Significant differences were observed among Ab-UK-Lip group, maximal-level UK group and others (P

OBJECTIVE To compare different methods of processing of homograft costal cartilage. METHODS Homograft costal cartilage samples were processesd by three methods-irradiation, freezing, and alcohol fixation-before being inserted into the rabbit nasal dorsum. They were taken out 12 weeks later and evaluated for histological responses under a optical microscope. RESULTS The histological responses consisted of inflammatory cell infiltration, necrosis, vasal responses and fibroplasia. The was a significant different in degree of inflammatory cell infiltration and necrosis in all three groups(P

Objective To observe the structure changes of the synapse of the neurons in hippocampus CA3 of young rats and study the basis for the mechanism of polyene phosphatidyl in providing learning and memory and the effect on synaptic plasticity.Methods A total of 20 Wistar rats with 5 months were randomly divided into polyene phosphatidyl group and normal control group.Each group had 10 rats.After 4 weeks feeding,Water maze training was peformed in all the rats for 1 weeks.The immue expressions of synapsin(SYN) of the rats in polyene phosphatidyl group and control groups were observed with immunohistochemical method and analyzed by MOTAC imagine analyzing system.The change of synapse of hippocamal CA3 was observed with electron microscope.And the other 24 to 26 months rats were selected as aged group,and fed in the same condition.Moreover,the ultrastructures of hippocamal CA3 of aged rats were observed by transmission electron microscopy(TEM).Results The SYN in polyene phosphatidyl group(0.430 0?0.022 4) was higher than that in control group(0.3567?0.0209) (P

Objective To study the feasibility of noninvasive detection of unstable plaques with ~(18)F-Fluorodeoxyglu-cose (~(18)F-FDG) PET/CT imaging. Methods Atherosclerotic plaques were induced in male New Zealand white rabbits. Animals were injected with FDG labeled with ~(18)F, then examined with PET/CT. Aorta was explanted for photography with digital camera, and ~(18)F-FDG uptake analysis. Thirty unstable plaques and 30 stable plaques were choosed so as to compare the quantitativly ~(18)F-FDG uptake. The number of macrophages and smooth muscle cells was detected by immunohistochemical technique. Results Experimental group showed inconsistent uptake of ~(18)F-FDG in the abdominal aorta. The results were confirmed in the ex vivo digital photo of the explanted aorta. The target to non target ratio (T/NT) and macrophages of unstable plaques were higher than stable plaques (P<0.01) , but smooth muscle cells obviously reduced (P <0. 01). Correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between T/NT and macrophage content (r=0. 815,P<0. 01), and a negative correlation between T/NT and SMC content(r=-0. 684,P <0. 01). Conclusion ~(18)F-FDG PET/CT can constitute an attractive imaging method for the noninvasive detection of experimental unstable plaques.

Thyroid hormones are known to influence the activities of sympathetic nerve by modifying the P-adrenoceptor numbers in several peripheral organs. In order to find out whether similar changes exist in central nervous system ( CNS ) , the changes of ?-adrenergic re-cetors in mouse brain during experimental hyperthyroidism and the effects of some Yin Tonice( Rehmannia ) on that were investigated by method of radioligand binding. The results were as follows: 1 . The maximum Binding capacity (Bmax ) value of hyperthyroid mouse brain was 29% higher than the control's. No significant difference in KD value between the control and hyperthyroid animals was found . 2. By administration of rehmannia, the Bmax of hyperthyroid mouse was reduced to control value.

Objective To evaluate the correlation and difference of reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) and fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) on determining serum concentration of carbamazepine.Methods Fifty serum samples were collected,both RP-HPLC and FPIA methods were employed to determine the concentration of carbamazepine.The results were analyzed by paired t test,Bland-Altman and Deming regression methods,respectively.Results The results of measuring 50 samples by the two methods showed that FPIA datas were significantly higher than RP-HPLC datas,and there was statistically significant difference(P<0.05) and poorer consistency between two methods;There was good correlation between carbamazepine concentrations determined by the two methods.Deming regression equation was CFPIA=1.195 3 CRP-HPLC-0.144 0,and Pearson correlation coefficient was 0.968 5.Conclusion Clinicians should pay more attention to the difference of carbamazepine concentration determination by different methods when carbamazepine individualized dosage regimen was adjusted according to therapeutic drug monitoring.
