Objective:To study the antihyperglycemic effect of water soluble polysaccharides (MCW) and alkaline soluble polysaccharides (MCB) from Momordica charantia L. on streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice. Method:Twelve mice were selected randomly as control, while the other l08 mice were injected with STZ 200 mg/kg?bw to induce diabetes.The diabetic mice were divided into 4 groups,the model, MCW (300 mg/kg bw), MCB (300 mg/kg bw), Gilbenclamide (15 mg/kg bw). The above components were administered intragastrically for 10 d and then blood samples were taken to determine concentrations of serum glucose and insulin. Results: The blood glucose levels could be obviously decreased by MCW and MCB in the diabetic mice. MCB has the best antihyperglycemic effect, in terms of improving the serum insulin level and decreasing the blood glucose level of diabetic mice. Conclusion:The polysaccharides from Momordica charantia can repair the injured pancreatic islet tissues and enhance insulin secretion so as to reduce blood glucose level of the diabetic mice.

Objective:To investigate the effects of survivin antisense oligonucleotide (ASODN) on expression of survivin and ACC-M cell apoptosis. Methods: A phosphorothioate antisense oligonucleotide (ASODN) of specific target survivin was designed and synthesized and then transferred to ACC-M cell line by lipofectin. At the same time blank control group, sense oligonucleotide (SODN) group were set up for comparison. MTT assay was used to detect cytotoxicity. Apoptosis was observed by flow cytometry. Survivin expression was determined by RT-PCR and Western-Blotting. Results: Compared with control group and SOND group, in ASODN groups, the expression of survivin mRNA and protein were obviously weak, apoptosis rate apparently increased, cells growth was inhibited. There was no obviously difference in SODN and control groups.Conclusion:ASODN can down-regulate the expression of survivin gene in ACC-M cell line specifically. It plays an important role in inducing tumor apoptosis and suppressing cell proliferation.

BACKGROUND:Three-dimensional finite element simulation has been widely used in biomechanics. However, there is little research in knee joint replacement. The study of femoral prosthesis is less.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the optimal positioning parameters of knee replacement and femoral prosthesis implantation, and to verify the efficacy of Gemini-PS knee prosthesis in total knee arthroplasty.
METHODS: (1) Knee finite element model in total knee replacement was constructed. Orthogonal experiment was performed in femoral osteotomy positioning parameters. The shift amount A, external rotation degree B, and valgus degree C of femoral prosthesis were selected as the relevant factors for orthogonal experiment. Three values were taken for each parameter to establish orthogonal tables. Nine experimental combined knee replacement finite element models were created and analyzed with finite element. Analysis of variance and range analysis were used by optimization. (2) Totally 42 patients (47 knees) with knee osteoarthritis received total knee arthroplasty with Gemini-PS knee joint prosthesis. Knee joint function was evaluated after replacement with Hospital for Special Surgery knee score and American Knee Society knee score. Knee pain was assessed with Visual Analogue Scale score.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Minimal polyethylene substrate surface compressive stress peak was translation 0 mm, external rotation of 3°, valgus 6°; the peak stress was 15.9 MPa. Among the influential factors, the effects of internal and external translation were larger than that of external rotation angle, and greater than that of valgus angle. The optimal positioning parameter combination was pan 0 mm, external rotation 3°, valgus 6° by range analysis and variance analysis. Orthogonal experiment was valid by simulation. (2) 42 patients were folowed up for 12-36 months. One patient affected subcutaneous fat liquefaction of the lower segment of the incision. Hospital for Special Surgery knee score and American Knee Society knee score were significantly higher after implantation (P < 0.05). Visual Analogue Scale score was significantly lower after replacement (P < 0.05). X-ray films showed that osteolysis, dislocation or loosening was not found. The recovery of knee joint was good after operation. (3) These findings

BACKGROUND:Knowledge of retropedtoneal space communications might influence catheter placement,and understanding the normal anatomy of the retroperitoneal space is a prerequisite for predicting the distribution of inflammation or other fluid collections in this region. Until recent years,the media/ attachment of the posterior renal fascia remained controversial. The multiple detector spiral CT can show the abdominal anatomic details. So,using the multiple-detector spiral CT to study the anatomy of posterior renal fascia has clinical significance. OBJECTIVE:To describe the medial attachment of the posterior renal fascia by using multiple-detector spiral CT. DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:A retrospective case analysis was performed at Department of Radiology,Affiliated Hospital of Weifang Medical College between June 2003 and November 2007. PARTICIPANTS:A total of 52 patients with retropedtoneal inflammatory diseases were retrospectively reviewed through analysis of their CT data. METHODS:Toshiba Akuilion 16-detector spiral CT was employed for scanning. Of the 52 patients,15 were proved by clinical and laboratory findings and 37 were proved by surgery and pathology. Among the 52 patients,17 suffered from appendicitis,1 from ureteritis,2 from abscesses in the perirenal space,3 from abscesses in the posterior pararenal space,and 29 from pancreatltis. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Medial attachment of the bilateral posterior renal fascia. RESULTS:At the level of the upper pole of kidney,the posterior renal fascia fused with the fascia of the ipsilateral quadratus lumborum muscle. Forty-six patients manifested the attachment site of the left posterior renal fascia transforming from the quadratus lumborum muscle fasciae to the psoas major muscle fascia at the level of the lower pole of kidney or the infrarenal space. Fifty patients showed the attachment site of the right posterior renal fascia transforming from the quadratus lumborum muscle fascia to the psoas major muscle fascia at the level of the lower pole of kidney or the infrarenal space. CONCLUSION:The posterior renal fascia attachment site is not the same all the time. At different levels,the attachment site of the posterior renal fascia is distinct.

Bacterial biodiversities of microbial mat and sediments, which were sampled from thermal springs of Tengchong Rehai in Yunnan, were preliminarily studied with PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE). Directly extracted total DNA from environmental samples amplified by PCR with two sets of bacteria-specific primers. The PCR products, which include the V 8 and V 9 high-variable regions respectively, were analyzed by using DGGE. The DGGE profiles not only indicated the existence of higher levels of bacterial diversity, but also showed that the microbial mat and sediments have different dominant bacteria. Furthermore, the bacterial PCR-DGGE displayed clear profiles of bacterial structure selected by the key abiotic factors of the extreme environments, such as temperature and concentration of oxygen.
