Medical Journal of Chinese People's Liberation Army 1983;0(02):-
The biodistribution and the radio activity in blood clearance of 99m Tc AMLCA were determined in 5 normal dogs by whole body imaging and measuring the radio activity in blood samples at 2,4,8 and 24h after 99m Tc AMLCA injection. The feasibility of imaging of the site of myocardial infarct was determined in 2 of the experimental MI dogs by demonstration of the left ventricle blood pool imaging (LVBPI) with 99m Tc AMLCA and by subsequent imaging of the excised heart. The results showed that the plasma concentration of 99m Tc AMLCA decreased rapidly from 51 5%?5 2% at 2nd hr to 27 3%?3 1% at 4th, 12 3%?1 8% at 8 hr and 5 6%?0 6% at 24th after the injection. The LVBPI in one MI dog showed that the region of the radionuclide concentration of 99m Tc AMLCA corresponded to region of absence of 99m Tc MIBI. The scintigraphy in another MI dog heart slices showed that the region of the radionuclide concentrate of 99m Tc AMLCA corresponded to the region of triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. The measurement of double radionuclides in the double interesting region in the MI dog heart slices indicated that the infarct myocardium uptook 99m Tc AMLCA specifically. These findings suggested that 99m Tc AMLCA scintigraphy might be a new approach for detecting and localizing MI
2.Brain-derived neurotrophic factor in the development and metabolism of bone and tooth:promoting or inhibiting proliferation and differentiation?
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2015;(2):283-288
BACKGROUND:Brain-derived neurotrophic factor has been detected in bone and tooth, and its role in development and metabolism of bone and tooth tissue as wel as its clinical application has become a hot spot. OBJECTIVE: To summarize and analyze the effect and mechanism of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in development and metabolism of bone and tooth tissues. METHODS: Papers addressing the effect of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in bone and tooth tissue were retrieved by computer in Wanfang and PubMed databases with the key words of “brain-derived neurotrophic factor, TrkB, p75NTR, signaling, bone, tooth, osteoblasts, osteoclasts” in Chinese and English, respectively. A total of 53 papers were included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Brain-derived neurotrophic factor can be detected in various tissuesin vivo, and can regulate cel survival and apoptosis through binding its two receptors. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor in bone and tooth tissue can bind to target cels, induce or inhibit cel proliferation and differentiation, indicating that brain-derived neurotrophic factor is closely linked to bone and tooth tissue, and may play a role in growth and reconstruction of bone and tooth. Its mechanism of action is mainly through binding to TrkB receptor, to activate downstream pathways and affect differentiation and proliferation of mesenchymal stem cels, osteoblasts, chondrocytes, and periodontal ligament cels. Interaction between p75NTR receptor and TrkB receptor may be one of the factors affecting cel differentiation or proliferation.

BACKGROUND:Primary culture of neurons is an important way to study the structure and functions of the nervous system.It is also important to explore pathomechanism and medicine reaction of some ophthalmology diseases.OBJECTIVE:To explore an optimal way to the separation and culture of retinal and visual cortical neurons in new-bom rats through comparative observation of different primary culture methods.METHODS:Retinal and visual cortical neurons isolated from new-born rats were firstly cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium supplemented with 10% new-born calf serum and 10% F12 nutrient mixtures,followed by maintaining culture in Neurobasal medium containing 2% B27 serum-free supplements.Nissls staining was performed for neuron identification.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Cultured neurons grew well with plump cell bodies and long processes.Nissls staining showed that the purity of retinal neurons was greater than 90% and the proportion of visual cortical neurons was higher than 50%.The results suggested that there are some differences in culturing methods and growth characteristics of retinal and visual cortical neurons of new-born rats,accordingly,different culture methods are required to obtain high purity neurons.

Objective To observe the morphological changes of mice cortex neuron cultured in vitro under different temperature, and the expression of skeleton protein (?-tubulin) in the neuron, and to study the relationship between ?-tubulin and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70). Methods The cerebral cortex neuron of embryonic mice was cultured in vitro. The cultured neuron was put in different temperature 7 days later. To observe the morphological changes of the neuron using optical microscope and the changes of the expression of ?-tubulin and HSP70 under different temperature using laser scanning confocal images. Results Optical microscopy indicated that drifting cells increased, and neural network became sparse in 38℃; some cells necrosed in 39℃; most cells necrosed, cell broke to pieces, axons drifted or disappeared in 42℃. Results of laser scanning confocal images indicated that after hyperthermia the fluorescence intensity of ?-tubulin was lower than that of controls, and the fluorescence intensity declined as the temperature elevated. The fluorescence intensity of HSP70 showed a bell-shape distribution curve, i.e. the highest value emerged at 39℃, whereas the lower values appeared at 37℃ and 42℃. Conclusion Heat stress leaded to the morphological changes of neuron. The disordered of skeleton protein may be responsible for the changes and HSP70 may take part in the process.

Objective To acquire effective clues for identification of environmental risk factors to birth defects. Methods Spatial autocorrelation statistics Moran's I and spatial hotspots detect method Getis's G statistics was used to identify birth defect risk factor. Results The different kinds of birth defects have different spatial distribution. Neural tube birth defects have the properties of spatial autocorrelation and different clustering phenomena in different spatial scales. Two typical spatial patterns were discovered in spatial scales of about 6.84 kilometers and 22.8 kilometers. Conclusion Using spatial autocorrelation probing technique, we find that there may be some common environmental teratogenetic factors which affect birth defects occurring ratio in the study area. By hotspots analysis of the clustering phenomena, the risk factors leading to birth defect were further resolved.

AIM To study the effect and mechanism of sildenafil on rabbit corpus cavernosum in vitro . METHOD Rabbit corpus cavernosum(RCC) segments were incubated with various concentrations of sildenafil. The formation of cGMP was stimulated with 1 ?mol?L -1 sodium nitroprusside(SNP), and the cyclic GMP concentration was measured by radioimmunoassy technology. In the organ bath, strips of RCC were precontracted with 10 ?mol?L -1 phenylephrine. Sildenafil were added with increasing doses gradually, graded relaxations were induced using various concentrations of sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and methacholine (MCH). RESULT In the presence of SNP, the cGMP concentration was increased in rabbit penile tissue, the increase of cGMP was greater when sildenafil was added. Sildenafil 10、100 nmol L -1 、1 ?mol?L -1 dose-dependently relaxed RCC strips. CONCLUSION Sildenafil increases cGMP concentration in RCC is attributed to the augmentation of NO/cGMP pathway, and the accumulation of cGMP improves the relaxation of RCC.

Body-surface electrogastrogram signals can be adopted in studies of gastrodynamics characteristics and diagnoses of functional gastric diseases. Fundamental theory of denoise by wavelet introduced, wavelet transfer is applied to the denoise of body-surface electrogastrogram signals. The high-frequency noise is eliminated through wavelet, and thus the SNR and the resolution ratio of the signal are increased.
