1.The presence of u-PA receptor in human endothelial cell and its regulation induced by PMA
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1989;0(05):-
Urokinase-type plasminogen activator plays an important role in the dissolution of clot and the treatment of thrombosis diseases. Presently, more attention has been paid to urokinase metabolism in human body and the relationship between urokinase fibrolysis effect and its receptor in endothelial cell.Cultured endothelial cell was used in the experiment to react with labelled urokinase in the presence or absence of unlabelled urokinase. It was found that the specific bindind of labelled urokinase with endothelial cell increased with the increasing concentration of labelled urokinase and reached the saturation point from 10 to 32 ?g labelled urokinase/ ml. The maximal binding sites with urokinase per cell were 1.4?10?, and Kd value 7.5? 10~(-12)M, Meanwhile, PMA-treated endothelial cell was used to react with ~(125)I-uPA at the same conditions as discribed above. Compared with the specific binding of DMSO-treated endothelial ceil, the maximal binding sites per PMA-treated cell increased from 1.4?10~6 Per untreated cell to 2.2?10~6, and the Kd value from 7.5?10~(-12)M to 9?10~(-12)M.These results showed that urokinase receptor exists on the surface of endothelial cell, and that the number of receptor per cell could be modulated by PMA. It is possible that the urokinase binding with endothelial cell can play an important role in the very short half-life of urokinase in human body.

The aim of this study was to obtain the alginate gels which could have proper compressive strength and excellent permeability for cell proliferation and could have more promising potentials in the application of tissue engineering. Through the reaction of the carboxyl of the alginate and the amino of methacrylic acid, methylacrylic was generated into alginate long chain which could be enhanced by the polymerization of double bond under thermal reaction condition. And then alginate gel beads were prepared using the mixture of calcium chloride and barium chloride solution as cationic crosslinker, and the compressive modulus and permeability of the prepared alginate gel beads were investigated. When the ratio of barium ions to calcium ions was 5:5, the compression modulus was 189.7 kPa, and it showed the best permeability for trypsin with molecular weight of 24 kDa and entrapment effect for bovine serum albumin with molecular weight of 67 kDa. Compared to compositions of other ratios, the alginate gel beads made in 5:5 mixture indicated excellent compressive modulus and permeability. These results indicated that the alginate hydrogel beads with the ratio of barium ions to calcium ions being 5:5 have a potential application in tissue engineering as a support material and encapsulating materials in cell culture.

BACKGROUND: Neural behavior is a sensitive parameter for predicting abnormal central nervous growth that is resulted from multiple factors. Therefore this study was designed to explore the influence of hypothermia and cigarette smoke exposure during pregnancy on neural behavioral growth of neonatal rats.OBJECTIVE: To study the influence of hypothermia and cigarette smoke exposure on neural behavioral growth of neonatal rats.DESIGN: Randomized case control study based on experimental animals. SETTING: Obstetric and Gynecological Department , Third Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical College; Cytobiological Department of Xinxiang Medical College.MATERIALS: Totally 270 healthy unpregnant SD rats were obtained, including 180 males with body mass of 190- 210 g, and 90 female rats with body mass of 225-275 g. Rats were raised with granulated feed and drinking water routinely in room of 25 ℃ with natural sunlight. Male and female rats in estrus were put in the same cage overnight in proportion of 2: 1, pregnancy was confirmed if vaginal bolt was observed the following morning. Totally 160 pregnant rats were obtained and randomly divided into 16 groups that were exposed to hyperthermia, cigarette smoke or their combination and by this way, earlier reflex, learning and memory of neonatal rats were observed after natural delivery,INTERVENTIONS: From the second day of pregnancy, rats in 37 ℃, 41 ℃,42 ℃ hyperthermia combining cigarette group received subcutaneous injection of 1 mL smoke hydrotrope every other day, while rats in 25 ℃ control group and 37 ℃, 41 ℃, 42 ℃ single hyperthemia groupwere given 2.0 mL double distilled water every day for totally 7 times. From the pregnancy of 10 days, pregnant rats were put into incubator, and rats anus temperature should be kept respectively at(37 ±0.5) ℃, (41 ±0.5)℃, (42 ±0.5)℃in the 37 ℃, 41 ℃, 42 ℃ of single hyperthemia groups and the temperature should last for 2.0 minutes; nats of 37 ℃, 41 ℃, 42 ℃hyperthemia combining cigarette group received the same treatment and were divided into four subgroups with the duration of 0. 5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 minutes respectively;rats in 25℃ control group were not exposed to hyperthermia. Rats were then singly raised from the pregnancy of 18 days for natural delivery. Pregnant days, number of neonatal rat and death rats were recorded, and visible malformation was observed. The average body masses of each cote of neonatal rats were measured every week. Time of eye-opening, ear-opening, hair-growing and teething were observed for assessing their physical growth. Reflex and sensory function of neonatal rats, such as planar tuning, spatial turning, visual orientation and auditory surprise was observed at 3, 7, 12, 16 days after birth respectively; The mean targeting time of each cote was used as reference for assessing their feflex. Y-lybirinth test was used for assessing learning and memory function of neonatal rats(30 days after birth).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Main outcomes: Reflex and sensory, such as planar tuning, spatial turning, visual orientation and auditory surrise. ② Secondary outcomes: Influence of hyperthemia and cigarette exposure on learning memory function of neonatal rats.RESULTS: For hyperthermia group(41C and 42C), targeting time of neonatal rat physical growth(eye-opening, ear-opening, hair-growing and teething) and reflex sensory function(planar tuning, spatial turning, nvisual orientation and auditory surprise), as well as learning and memory(minute) were obviously delayed in contrast with those of the control group and 37 C group(χ2 = 11.34, P <0.01 ); meanwhile, longer hyperthermia exposure (1.5 minutes) combined with cigarette smoke had supplementary effect on the above neural behaviors, which was significantly different from that of single hyperthermia group(χ2=10.29, P<0.01).CONCLUSION: Abnormal neural behavior of neonatal rats, such as growing retardation, learning and memory obstacle could be induced by the combination of longer hyperthemia exposure and cigarette smoke.

Objective: To establish an animal model for research of maxillary protraction. Methods: 16 pubertal rabbits were assigned randomly to 2 groups. Titanium bone markers were fixed on each side of mucogingival junction, 1 cm above incisor teeth. The experimental group underwent maxillary protraction by self-made distraction devices. A down and forward elastic force (about 3.43 N) was exerted for 30 days. Results: In 30 d, the distance of premaxilla movement in the experimental group was 1.89 mm averagely, while that in the control group was only 0.11 mm. Cephalometric analysis indicated that the maxilla of rabbits was moved forward obviously by appliance in the experimental group, and maxilla was not rotated. There was no obvious difference between the control and the experimental groups. Conclusion: Animal model used in this experiment for maxillary protraction is reliable. The appliance can move the rabbits maxilla forward obviously during the maxillary protraction.

Objective To analyse the long-term result and prognosis of 18 FDG PET/CT positioning three - dimensional conformal radiotherapy ( 3 DCRT ) for stage Ⅲ non - small cell lung cancer. Methods Sixty-four cases with stage Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer (clinical stage Ⅲa- Ⅲb ) were randomly divided into two groups: PET/CT positioning three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy group (PET/CT group) and the conventional CT positioning three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy group (conventional CT group). In the PET/CT group, the target volume and critical organs were sketched according to PET/CT after fusion of the PET and the CT images; the treatment plan was worked out, then conventional fractionated 3DCRT ( total dosage around 40 Gy) followed by field-shrinked radiotherapy to a total dose of 65 Gy or sowas performed ;in the conventional CT group, the target volume and critical organs were sketched according to CT and 3DCRT were performed to the same total dose; All cases were treated with the TP scheme (paclitaxel 175 mg/m2,d1 ,cisplatin 40 mg,d2-4) adjuvant chemotherapy for 6 cycles after the radiotherapy. Results The followup rate was 100%. The number of patients who completed the 1-,2-and 5-year follow-up were 40,20 and 11 respectively ;The number of patients of the PET/CT group and conventional CT group were 23 and 17,11 and 9,7 and 4 respectively. Target volumes of 13 cases in the PET/CT group were changed. The complete remission and partial remission rates of the two groups were 13% 、66% and 19% 、53% (x2 = 0. 33, P =0. 564), respectively. The 1-,2-and 3-year local control rates of the PET/CT group and conventional CT group were84 % 、66% 、53 % an d72% 、59% 、44% ( x2 = 2.36, P = 0. 124 ) respectively. The1 -, 2-and 3-year survival rates were 72% 、34% 、22% and 53% 、28% 、13% (x2 =2. 46,P =0. 117) respectively. The level-1 and level-2 lungs' and trachea's late radiation injury of the PET/CT group and the conventional CT group were 28% and 53% ( x2 = 4. 14, P = 0. 042 ), respectively. The hilar and mediastinal lymph node recurrence rates of the PET/CT group were lower than those of the conventional CT group, were 3% ,25%(P = 0. 026) and 6%, 28% ( P = 0. 042 ), respectively. The main reason for treatment failure was distant metastasis both in the PET/CT group and conventional CT group,56% and 47% (x2 = 0. 56,P = 0. 453 ),respectively. Conclusions PET/CT, as a method of sketching the target of stage Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer, can improve the radiation treatment plan, reduce the recurrence rate of hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes, meanwhile it can not improve the long-term survival rate; Distant metastasis was the main reason of failure.
