Objective To quantitatively assess cardiac intervals with tissue Doppler imaging(TDI) and normal reference values. Methods Apical 4 chamber, 2 chamber and long axis views of two-dimensional TDI were acquired in 29 healthy individuals(using GE Vivid 7 commercially ultrasound machine). The basal and middle segments in left ventricle(anterior septal, anterior, lateral, posterior, inferior and septal wall) and in the free wall of right ventricle were analyzed with tissue velocity imaging(TVI) model.Cardiac intervals of each segment, which included the isovolumic contraction time, contraction to peak time, insovolumetric relaxation time, rapid filling time and artrial contraction time were measured using TVI in the left ventricle and free wall of the right ventricle. Results The successful rate of sample was 100% in basal segment of each wall. There were significant differences between the left and right ventricle in the isovolumetric contraction time, the systolic accelaration time, contraction to peak time, isovolumetric relaxation time, early diastolic time, diastasis and artrial contraction( P

The paper introduced the recent development of optical tweezers array.The particle manipulation system could be set up based on several methods,such as acousto-optics deflectors(AOD),diffractive optical elements(DOE),spatial light modulators(SLM),interference technique,vertical cavity surface emitting laser(VCSEL),optical fibers and micro-lens arrays as well.The principle,specification and basic structure of each method were introduced and analyzed briefly.Taking the advantage of particle trapping,optical tweezers array was very useful for manipulation of micron size particles,such as cells.Combining with microfluidics and MEMs fabrication,optical tweezer array,the ultraminiature and portable particle sorting system,would be a good choice for space biological research.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of transthoracic two dimensional echocardiography, cardioangiography (CAG), and MRI in the diagnosis of cor triatriatum. Methods Twelve cases of cor triatriatum were confirmed by operation. Imaging examination was performed in 12 cases by transthoracic two dimensional echocardiography, 6 cases by CAG, and 8 cases by MRI. Results The diagnostic accuracy of cor triatriatum was 7 out of 12 by UCG, 4 out of 6 by CAG, and 8 out of 8 by MRI, respectively. MRI provided excellent delineation of the intraatrial membrane and the size of the membrane orifice. Conclusion MRI was of great value in the diagnosis of cor triatriatum.

Objective:To study the effect of dipeptidyl peptidase I(DPPI)on the damage of alveolar bone and inflammatory re-sponse of periodontium in periodontitis mice.Methods:Periodontitis model of left first molars was established in 1 0 DPPI-/-mice and 1 0 wild type(WT)mice by E.coli LPS injection and the right ones were served as the control by PBS injection.Micro-CT scanning and HE staining were performed to compare the damage of alveolar bone and inflammatory response of periodontium between the 2 groups.Results:The decreace of alveolar bone height in DPPI-/-mice was less than that in WT mice〔(Maxillary:(0.001 7 ± 0.000 4)mm vs (0.202 0 ±0.008 6)mm;Mandibular:(0.034 2 ±0.002 9)mm vs (0.332 8 ±0.01 2 5)mm〕(P<0.05).HE staining showed that the inflammatory response of periodontium in DPPI-/-mice was less severe than that in WT mice.Conclusion:DPPI may promote the inflammatory response of periodontis in mice.

AIM To establish the HPLC-FPC of Flos Lonicerae . from different growing areas. METHODS The gradient was adopted elution with methanol and 1 % acetic acid, at detection wavelength was at 254 nm. RESULTS The constitutents of Flos Lonicerae were well separated on HPLC, and the HPLC-FPC of 10 batchs of samples was established. The results showed that this method had a good repeatability, and the 11 common peak’s had an exclusive properties. CONCLUSION The method developed can evaluate the quality of Flos Lonicerae conveniently.

Objective To observe the effect of vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF)on apoptosis and matrix metabolism of rat intervertebral.disc cells cultured in vitro. Methods Culture system of rat intervertebral disc cells was established to culture the monolayer intervertebral disc cells in vitro.The well-grown intervertebral disc cells of the second generation were chosen and anti-Fas antibody was applied to induce their apoptosis.Then,VEGF at different concentrations ( 10,100,1 000 μg/L)were used to affect their apoptosis and metabolism.The apoptosis of the cells stained with Propidium Iodide (PI) was detected by using flow cytometry.The levels of hydroxyproline and proteoglycan in the culture medium were detected by using chloramines T method and DMB chromometry method,respectively.Results ( 1 ) The apoptotic ratio of the intervertebral disc cells affected by different concentrations of VEGF (10,100,1 000 μg/L) was (87.62 ±11.06)％,(53.30 ±9.23)％ and (16.75 ±4.21)％ respectively,with significant differences in comparison with the control group (P ＜ 0.01 ).(2)The contents of hydroxyproline [ (6.71 ±0.33) μg/L,(9.12 ±0.41 ) μg/L,( 11.58 ±0.12) μg/L] and proteoglycan [ (23.21 ± 2.87) μg/L,( 32.45 ± 5.23 ) μg/L,(37.18 ± 3.22) μg/] in the culture medium raised with the increase of VEGF concentration ( 10,100,1 000 μg/L),with statistical differences compared with those of the control group (P ＜0.01 ).The contents of hydroxyproline and proteoglycan were positively correlated with the concentration of VEGF (ra=0.972,P＜0.01;rb =0.907,P＜0.01). Conclusion VEGF can inhibit the apoptosis of the rat intervertebral disc cells cultured in vitro and promote collagen and proteoglycan synthesis of the cell matrix.

AIM　The purpose is to construct D-hydantoinase genetic engineering strain for the purpose of the industrial production of D-p-hydroxyphenylglycine. METHODS　D-hydantoinase gene was created from Pseudomonas putida 9801 by PCR technique and inserted into pMD18-T vector. The recombinant plasmid was transformed into several Escherichia coli strains. The positive transformants with D-hydantoinase activity were obtained by the two step screening, digoxigenin DNA labeling in situ hybridization and D-hydantoinase activity assay. RESULTS　The D-hydantoinase activity of the genetic engineering strain E.coli BL21/pMD-dht was 1700 U*L-1 and increased as high as 8 times compared with those of wild-type strain Pseudomonas putida 9801. The subunit molecular weight of recombinant D-hydantoinase was about 53 kDa measured by SDS-PAGE. The amount of the recombinant D-hydantoinase was about 20 percent of total bacterial soluble proteins. CONCLUSION　The genetic engineering strain E.coli BL21/pMD-dht possesses the initial industrial production prospects.
