Objective To investigate the immunoreactivity of platelet-derived growth factor-A (PDGF-A) and its receptor at human and mouse neuromuscular junctions and to explore their regulatory effects on neuromuscular junctions. Methods Specific polyclonal antibodies were used to detect PDGF-A and PDGF a-receptor expression. Double immunohistochemistry for platelet-derived growth factor and the acetylcholine receptor was performed on normal human muscle biopsy specimens. Double fluorescence labeling was applied to detect immunoreactivity for PDGF-A, its receptor and acetylcholine receptors. Results PDGF-A and its receptor was closely co-localized with acetylcholine receptors at human and mouse neuromuscular junctions. Conclusion PDGF-A and its receptor concentrated at human and mouse neuromuscular junctions. PDGF might be involved in the interaction between the presynaptic and postsynaptic components, PDGF-A and its receptor might play regulatory role in signaling at neuromuscular junctions in normal muscle.

C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute phase reaction protein,which is very sensitive to the inflammatory reaction.Many studies have confirmed that CRP is closely correlated with ischemic stroke and atherosclerosis.However,studies on correlation between CRP and intracerebral hemorrhage are less.This article reviews the relationship between CRP and intracerebral hemorrhage.

The development of transitional epithelium of ureter and urinary bladder in the rats from prenatal 15 days old to postnatal 4 weeks old was studied by histological and histochemical methods. During the development, RNA and glycogen contents are increased at first and then decreased. The activity of SDH,AcP and AlP increased gradually and ATPase reaction was negative. These parameters tended to be stable from the postnatal 3rd week, it meants that the epithelium tend to maturation. On the prenatal 15th day there were some significant differences between the epithelium of the two organs, however thereafter they gradually become identical and they showed the same type of epithelium, i.e. transitional epithelium at maturation. This means that they reached the same goal by different routes. In addition, on the prenatal 15th day the epithelium of urinary bladder stratified in most portions, some of the superficial cells degenerate. Hence it deduced that the epithelium of urinary bladder undergo primitive stratification firstly, nad then cell degeneration happens, and evolve into trasitional form ultimately. Meanwhile, We presume that in certain extent, the development of the epithelium of the two organs, including cell temporary degeneration, in addition to the action of embryonic induction, probably related to the content of urinary tract also.

Objective To compare the survival and developmental potential of mouse morula, early blastocysts and blastocysts cryopreserved by vitrification. Methods One hundred and forty-two mouse morula, 135 early blastocysts and 148 blastocysts were cryopreserved by 6 mol/L ethylene glycol and 1 mol/L sucrose vitrification solutions. The survival rates and blastocysts hatching rates after thawing were observed. Results The survival rates of morula, early blastocysts and blastocysts groups were 88. 0% ,73. 3% ,and 60. 1% respectively. The blastocyst hatching rates were 73. 9% , 61. 5% ,and 49. 3% respectively. Both the survival rates and blastocyst hatching rates in morula group were higher than those in early blastocysts group (P

With the improvement of radiation therapy technology and the comprehensive treatment of malignant tumors,the survival time of patients with malignant tumors is gradually extended.In recent years,carotid stenosis and cerebrovascular disease complications after radiation therapy have received increasing attention.Existing studies have shown that carotid stenosis after radiation therapy is not only associated with atherosclerosis,it is likely to be an independent vascular lesion.This article reviews the correlation between head,neck and cerebral ischemic events,characteristics and mechanisms of vascular injury after radiation therapy,as well as the risk factors for carotid stenosis,clinical manifestations,and diagnosis and treatment methods after radiation therapy.

This article summarizes the investigation on infrasound at home and abroad and introduces such issues about infrasound as the effects of infrasound on cardio-vascular system, nervous system, audition and vision, its application to medical device as well as its safe-threshold. Being inaudible and with a mechanism of bio-resonance, infrasound has a brilliant perspective when applied to biomedicine.

Objective To establish a new method for inducing the primordial germ cells to differentiate into hepatocyte-like in vitro.Methods The primordial germ cells(PGCs) from the gonadal ridges of the mouse embryos of 13 days postcoitum from Kunming pregnant mice were cultured in vitro.Then embryonic hepatocytes enclosed in microcapsule and liver tissue extract of newborn mice were added into medium to co-culture with PGCs for committed differentiation.Albumin(ALB) and ?-1-antitrypsin(AAT) were assayed by immunocytochemistry.Results The morphology of cells differentiated from PGCs likes star or ovum,the ALB and AAT immune positive expression were detected in those differentiated cells.The ratio of positive cells was above 70% in 2 weeks.Conclusion Microenvironment of embryonic hepatocyte microcapsules and liver tissue extract could effectively induce PGCs to differentiate into hepatocytes.

BACKGROUND: Currently, a variety of new dressings have been on the market, which are diversified and exhibit multifunctional trends. However, ideal wound dressings are still in exploration.OBJECTIVE: To introduce the basic physiological function and polymer advantage of dextran as well as its effects to promote wound healing in combination with other macromolecule materials, in order to impel the development of dextran as a new medical dressing .METHODS: A computer-based search of CNKI, PubMed, WanFang, VIP databases was performed to retrieve reviews or research articles addressing dextran and medical dressings published from January 2000 to December 2016. The keywords were dressing, dextran, wound healing in Chinese and English, respectively.Finally, 31 articles were included in result analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Dextran has the physiological functions of promoting wound healing and immune function. These physiological functions are the basis of dextran as a medical dressing. Additionally, dextran has some polymer advantages, such as water absorption, biodegradability and non-toxicity. It is noteworthy that dextran can be combined with macromolecules to produce new polymer materials that can promote wound healing in animal experiments. Taken together, dextran, as a medical dressing, has a broad clinical prospect in wound healing.

Objective To evaluate the applicable and clinical value of CT and radiography in the dignosis of acetabular fractures.Methods The data of CT,X-ray and clinical treatment in 18 cases with acetabular fractures were analyzed and comparatively.Results There were 4 cases of the anterior wall fracture,4 cases of the anterior column fracture,2 cases of the posterior wall fracture,2 cases of the posterior column fracture and ,6 cases of complex fracture,11 cases were in company with swelling of the soft tissue in pelvic cavity.Of them,4 cases misdiagnosed by radiography.27 pieces of bone fragment were detected by CT,including 17 pieces of them in joint cavity.12 pieces of bone fragment were detected by X-ray,only 4 pieces of them were in joint.3 cases with femoral head fracture were included in 7 cases of the hip joint dislocation,1 case of them was misdiagnosed by X-ray.Conclusion In detecting the bone fragments in articular space,the type of acetabular fractures and soft-tissue swelling,CT is super to radiography.
