AIM:To investigate the role of damaged mitochondria in dendritic cell ( DC) apoptosis induced by Vibrio vulnificus (Vv) and its possible mechanism.METHODS: DC2.4 cells were co-cultured with Vv 1.1758 strain. Fluorescent probes DCFH-DA and Fluo-8-AM were used to detect reactive oxygen species ( ROS) and intracellular Ca 2+concentration in the invaded cells , respectively .The cellular apoptotic rates and mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm ) were measured by flow cytometry.The expression of nuclear factor-kappa B p65 (NF-κB p65) and tumor necrosis factor-al-pha (TNF-α) was detected by Western blotting.RESULTS:Vv 1.1758 induced DC2.4 cell apoptosis.Vv 1.1758 bacte-ria invaded into the DC2.4 cells by binding with cellular membrane though the end of the body .In the invaded DC2.4 cells, the visible mitochondrial damage, elevated ROS and intracellular Ca2+levels, and declinedΔψm were presented.Af-ter 1 h of co-culture, NF-κB p65 began to rise and reached the peak at 5 h, and then slightly decreased at 6 h.The TNF-αlevel increased after 2 h of co-culture and reached the peak at 6 h.CONCLUSION:The damaged mitochondria play an important role in DC apoptosis induced by Vv , and its possible mechanism may associate with the elevation of ROS and in-tracellular Ca2+level, and the declined Δψm.Meanwhile, NF-κB p65 and TNF-αare potential critical signaling molecules in the process of apoptosis .

The aim is to study the intestinal absorption of different combinations of active compounds out of Gegenqinlian decoction. Rat single pass intestinal perfusion model with jugular vein cannulated was used. Samples were obtained continuously from the outlet perfusate and the mesenteric vein. The levels of puerarin, daidzin, liquilitin, baicalin, wogonoside, jatrorrhizine, berberine and palmatine were determined by LC-MS/MS and their permeability coefficients were calculated. The results showed that Glycyrrhiza could promote the absorption of the active ingredients in Pueraria which is the monarch herb; meanwhile, Pueraria also played a role in promoting the absorption of liquilitin. Based on the Gegenqinlian decoction and the different combinations experiments, the results concerning the absorption of baicalin and wogonoside were as follows. For baicalin, Pueraria and Glycyrrhiza could promote its absorption and the effect of Pueraria was more obvious. For wogonoside, Pueraria could also promote its absorption, while Glycyrrhiza played a opposite role. Pueraria and Glycyrrhiza both played a part in promoting the absorption of jateorhizine, berberine and palmatine, the effective compounds in Coptis.

Objective To explore the effects of intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2 + ]i )and signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3 )signaling pathway on the invasion of Vibrio vuknificus (Vv )clinical isolates B2 into dendritic cells (DC).Methods The co-culture model of Vv B2 and DC 2.4 was constructed.Apoptosis and necrosis rates in different invasion phases were detected by flow cytometry.The calcium fluorescence probe Fluo-8-AM was used to detect the change of [Ca2 + ]i ,and Western blot and immunofluorescent techniques were used to explore the relative molecular expressions and intracellular distributions of STAT3 and phosphorylation STAT3 [p-STAT3 (705 )].Data were analyzed by t-test.Results After co-culture ofVv B2 and DC 2.4,the apoptosis rates of 1 ,2,3 and 4 h were (13.10±4.72)%,(30.10±3.52)%,(46.20±15 .61)% and(31 .00 ±19.10)%,respectively.The differences were statistical significant between Vv standard strain (1 .1758)and Vv B2 (t=4.30,22.33, 4.30 and 4.30,respectively;P =0.040,0.002,0.040 and 0.040,respectively).The necrosis rates of 1 , 2,3 and 4 h in co-culture of Vv B2 and DC 2.4 were(19.70 ±3.50 )%,(39.20±4.60 )%,(40.90 ± 13.80)% and (62.10 ± 8.20 )%,respectively.The differences were statistical significant between Vv 1 .1758 andVv B2 (t=9.93,14.09,4.30 and 14.09,respectively;P =0.010,0.005 ,0.049 and 0.005 , respectively).Compared to Vv 1 .1758,Vv B2 induced more apparent cell apoptosis and necrosis within the same time.By fluorescence microscope,intensity of calcium was enhanced with the rising of apoptosis. Although the total expression of STAT3 increased,the relative molecular expression of p-STAT3 (705 ) decreased.There was no significant difference in its distribution in cells compared to the blank group. Conclusion The rapid apoptosis and necrosis of DC during Vv B2 invasion into DC may be caused by increasing [Ca2 + ]i and inhibiting phosphorylation of p-STAT3 (705)simultaneously.

Aim To study the effect of leuprorelin acetate microspheres (LE ms) on endometriosis in rats, and compare the efficacy of material drug (LE), domestic and imported LE ms (enanton). Methods Endometriosis was induced by endometrial implant in rats. Then the animals were treated with LE (20 ?g?kg -1 ?d -1 ? 28 d ,sc), enanton(20 ?g?kg -1 ?d -1 ,sc)and domestic LE ms ( 2,20,200 ?g?kg -1 ?d -1 ,sc). Results Implants in control group continued to grow, while those in groups treated with drugs shrinked significantly, and domestic LE ms could produce dose dependent inhibitory effect on the growth of endometrial implant in rats. Conclusion The domestic LE ms at the single dose of 20 ?g?kg -1 ?d -1 has the same effectiveness as enanton and routine injection with the same does of LE for 28 days.

Objective To evaluate operative methods and the clinical effect for comminuted calcaneal fractures.Methods 21 cases(24 feet)of comminuted calcaneal fractures were treated by one stage bone grafting plus open reduction and internal fixation with plastic calcaneus titanium plate.The fractures were classified according to the Sanders system into Sanders Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ subgroups.Results All cases were followed up for 9~20 months(14months in average).All cases recovered with good healing of fracture.According to Maryland score,the results were excellent in 14 feet,good in 7 feet,fair in 2 feet,and poor in 1 foot.The excellent and good rate was 87.5%.Conclusions By using the method of internal fixation with plastic calcaneus titanium plate,fracture site can be well exposed,which is helpful to recover calcaneus to its normal length,width,height,Gissane angle and Bohler angle.A reliable internal fixation is helpful for early stage functional excise after surgery,which can maximize the recovery of the ankle function.

AIM: To study the inhibitory effects of domestic leuprolide acetate microsphere (LE-ms) on the growth of explanted endometrium in the rat models of EMT and its possible mechanisms. METHODS: The 60 rats models of EMT were induced surgically by the Jones method. Then the animals were treated with LE (20 ?g? -1?d -1,28 d,sc) , enanton(20 ?g? -1?d -1,sc) and domestic LE-ms (2, 20, and 200 ?g㎏ -1?d -1,sc), respectively; another 30 rats were divided into sham group(N.S, 1 ml?kg -1?d -1,21 d,sc), EMT+ LE group(100 ?g?kg -1?d -1,21 d,sc)and EMT group(N.S, 1 ml?kg -1?d -1,21 d,sc). At the same time, estrous cycle was monitored daily by examination of vaginal cytologic smears. After 3 weeks, blood was drawn and the serum estradiol concentration was assayed. The volume of endometrial implant was assessed. Lateral uterus, bilateral ovary, thymus and spleen were weighed. The NK cell cytotoxicity in the spleen was evaluated with lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assay. RESULTS: Implants in control group continued to grow, while those in groups treated with the drugs showed remarkable atrophy. The inhibitory rates were 87.2%, 78.3%, 57.3%, 89.0% and 94.7%, respectively. The regular estrous cycle of the model rats was abolished and serum estradiol reduced (P0.05); and the NK cells activity was enhanced(P
