Objective To observe the effects of Dengzhan Shengmai capsule on β-amyloid protein (Aβ) deposition in the brain and learning and memory function in renovascular hypertensive rats (RHRSP).Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups (5 rats per group):normal group,shamoperated group,hypertension with Dengzhan Shengmai capsule treatment group and hypertension with normal saline (NS) treatment group.Renovascular hypertensive models were created by clipping two-kidney.Dengzhan Shengmai capsules were dissolved in sterile 0.9％ NS and were administered (20 mg · kg-1 per day) by daily gavage for 4 weeks.In the NS group,hypertensive rats were given saline in the same volume.Immunofluorescent labeling and western blot were used to detect the expression of Aβ,NF-κB,IL-1β,TNF-α in the brain,respectively.Learning and memory function were detected by Morris water maze.Results RHRSP significantly increased Aβ deposition in the cerebral cortex and impaired memory function in rats.Dengzhan Shengmai capsule treatment significantly lowered the blood pressure compared with NS treatment((157.45±11.58) mmHgvs (197.76±10.12) mmHg).In addition,the levels of Aβ,NF-κB p65,IL-1β,TNF-α protein were significantly reduced,by Dengzhan Shengmai caspule treatment.The escape latency was shortened((24.64±4.57) s vs (37.17±3.87)s),while the frequency of passing through the platform quadrant(5.39±0.12 vs 3.05±0.28) and the dwell time((27.34±3.67) s vs (16.83±5.76)s) (all P＜0.01) in the platform quadrant were significantly increased by Dengzhan Shengmai capsule treatment.Conclusions Dengzhan Shengmai capsule may reduce Aβ deposition in brain and improve learning and memory function by anti-inflammatory effects in RHRSP.

Objective To evaluate the expressive variety of NGF gene in injured sciatic nerves of rat. Methods For hemi-quanti- tative analysis, RT-PCR method was used in the detection of the levels of NGF mRNA in the distal stumps at 1 day and 1, 2, 4 weeks following transection of sciatic nerve. Results The 1evel of NGF mRNA was low in the normal sciatic nerve. But it was increased in the distal stump after sciatic nerve transection. The biphasic increase in NGF mRNA was characterized by a first very rapid and transient increase peaking at ist day after lesion, than a second prolonged and slow elevation starting around ist weed after lesion. Conclusion The process in NGF gene expression after sciatic nerve lesion was biphasicly increased.

Objective To separate NK cells of mice from NK cell separation medium and study inhibitory effect of proliferated NK cell induced by low dose radiation on the leukemia model of K562 cells.Methods Flow cytometry and 3H-TdR methods were respectively used to measure proliferation index and activity of NK cells treated with low-dose radiation( which means exposure dose in 20 cGy low LET beam or 5 cGy high LET beam).CD13 + cells were measured by flow cytometry and TNF-α content in blood-serum was detected by ELISA.In vivo,peripheral blood leucocyte count,index of liver,indexes of spleen and kidney were observed in control group and experimental group.Results The purity of NK cell separation was (82.54 ± 0.18)%.The proliferation index of NK cells at 24 hours after 80 mGy irradiated was 36.31 ± 1.32% ,(t =24.69,P ＜0.05).Killing activity of NK cell induced by low dose radiation to K562 cell was (12.59±0.63)%(t=6.63,P＜0.05)and the inhibition ratio was 29.52%.Conclusion The injection of proliferated NK cell induced by low dose radiation demonstrated significant inhibitory effect on the growth of leukemia nude mouse.

objective To investigate the method of securing donors and recipients during the initial procedure of adult-to-aduh living donor liver transplantation(ALDLT).Methods The clinical data,preoperative assessment,surgical strategies and complications of 71 adult donors and recipients who underwent ALDLT from April 2007 to November 2007 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Sixty-three right lobes without middle hepatic vein(MHV),1 extended right lobe,4 right lobes with MHV and 3 left lobes with MHV were obtained.Two donors suffered from postoperative complications including 1 with bile leakage and 1 with abdominal bleeding.No donor mortality occurred.Eighteen recipients had postoperative complications including 12 with biliary complications,3 with vascular complications and 3 with small-for-size syndrome.The perioperative mortality rate of recipients was 10%(7/71).Conclusions Strict donor and recipient assessment,optimal surgical strategy and postoperative care are extremely helpful to secure donors and recipients during the initial procedure of ALDLT.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of living donor liver transplantation in the treatment of infants with end-stage liver diseases. Methods The clinical data of 33 infants who received living donor liver transplantation at the Renji Hospital of Shanghai Jiaotong University from October 2006 to September 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. The median age of the infants was 10.9 months, and the mean body weight was 8.2 kg.All of the grafts were left lateral lobes. Tacrolimus (or cyclosporine A) + steroid or tacrolimus (or cyclosporine A)+ steroid + mycophenolate mofeti] were applied to the infants to suppress the immune reaction. Operative techniques, perioperative management and results of follow-up were analyzed. Results The mean operation time,blood loss and blood transfusion of the donors were (384±108)minutes, (183±35) ml and O, and the three indexes of the recipients were (500± 103) minutes, (296±163) ml and (292 ± 159) ml , respectively. The cold preservation time of the grafts was (64 ±23)minutes, the mean weight of the grafts was (249 ±52)g, and the mean graft to recipient weight ratio was 2.1% ± 0.4%. All donors recovered smoothly and no complication occurred. Of the recipients, three were complicated with hepatic artery thrombosis, two with portal vein thrombosis,nine with biliary complications, 11 with infection, two with acute rejection and five infants died perioperatively.The one-year cumulative survival rate of the infants was 85% (28/33). Conclusions Infants with end-stage liver diseases could be treated by living donor liver transplantation. The development of surgical techniques and perioperative managements improves the success rate of operation and the long-term survival rate.

Objective To investigate effect of autologous periosteum transplantation in the repair of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.Methods Transected ACL injury was induced in 24 white rabbits randomly allocated to receive autologous periosteum transplantation with suture fixation (study group,n =12),isolated suture fixation (control group,n =12),and arthrotomy (blank group,n =3).Gross observation of ACL repair was performed and degeneration of knee joint was evaluated using the Markin score.ACL pathology,collagen fiber formation and insertion degenerative changes were histologically investigated using the HE staining,Masson staining and Picric-Sirius red staining.Results Twelve weeks after the operation,gross observation showed ligamentous continuity and minor joint degeneration in study group.Opposite results were seen in control group.Markin joint degeneration score calculated 7.2 ± 1.6 in study group,12.4 ± 1.8 in control group and 0.6 ± 0.4 in blank group,with significant differences between groups (P ＜ 0.05).Using the HE and Masson staining in study group,rich collagen fibers and microvessel as well as cell infiltration were found in wound tissue and the ligaments were covered with synovial membrane.However,wound tissue did not heal in control group,leaving ligament remnants with loosely disorganized fibers and rich microvessel as well as cell infiltration.And only the residual stump was wrapped with synovial membrane.Using the HE and Picric-Sirius red staining,the typical four-layer structure of ACL insertion remained intact in study group,whereas in control group the layer structure of ACL insertion in control group became disorganized and the tidemark of enthesis almost disappeared.Conclusion Autologous periosteum transplantation is effective to improve the injury healing and mitigate the degeneration of joint.
