Objective To study the effect of bone marrow mononuclear cells transplantation on restenosis rate and its mechanism. Methods The left anterior descending coronary arteries of swines were obstructed by balloon to create myocardial infarction models. After 3 weeks coronary stents were implanted at the middle part of the left anterior descending coronary arteries followed by the injection of bone marrow mononuclear cells into the coronary arteries. The degree of restenosis were measure by quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) after four weeks. Vascular tissue at both ends of stents were tested by HE and Sirius staining to analyse the mechanism of restenosis. Results At end of the experiment there were 8 swines in the bone marrow mononuclear cells transplantation group and 9 in the control group. After injection of bone marrow mononuclear cells the restenosis rate was similar to the control group (50% vs 44%, P=0.762). The lumen late loss was also similar between the two groups (1.50?1.45 mm vs 1.31?1.07 mm,P=0.736). Conclusion Bone marrow mononuclear cells transplantation does not increase the restenosis rate after percutaneous coronary artery intervention.

Objective To find a more suitable approach to pediatric anesthesia during laparoscopic operation to alleviate stress response.Methods Forty patients,1 to 3 years of age,ASA grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ,underwent general anesthesia(group GA)and combined general epidural anesthesia(group GEA)during their laparoscopic operation.Heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP),ECG,SPO2,PETCO2,blood gas,plasma epinephrine,plasma norepinephrine,plasma IL-6 and IL-10 were monitered and recorded five minutes before anesthesia(T0),pre-pneumoperitoneum(T1),5 min after pneumoperitoneum(T2),30 min after pneumoperitoneum(T3),30 min after operation(T4)and 24 h after operation(T5).Results(1)HR,MAP of group GA were increased obviously at T2,T3,T4 compared to T0(P0.05).Significant difference was found at T1,T2,T3 and T4 between group GA and group GEA(t=4.749,10.349,13.632,10.051,P0.05).Plasma IL-10 at T1,T2,T3,T4 were higher than that at T0 in both groups(P

Objective To compare the ability of the fourth and the third generation HIV assay kits available in Chinese market to detect early HIV infection.Methods 8 BBI HIV seroconversion panels (PRB924,930,940,942,943,944,946 and 948) and 2 National AIDS Reference Lab's HIV seroconversion panels (2004XJ727 and 20505217) were respectively detected with one HIV antigen assay kit,2 fourth generation HIV assay kits and 4 third generation HIV assay kits.The ability of these kits to detect early HIV infection was analyzed and compared.Results For every panel,the fourth generation HIV assay kits could detect HIV-1 infection 4 to 8 days earlier than the third generation kits,and 2 to 4 days later than the antigen kit.The detection ability of different brands of kits was different.Conclusions The fourth generation HIV assay kits could reduce the window period to detect HIV infection.It's meaningful for diagnosing early HIV infection,blood safety and etc.

Objective To explore the role ofpostsynaptic density 95 (PSD-95) in Parkinsonian rat models receiving chronic L-dopa treatment. Methods The hemi-parkinsonian rat models were established by stereotaxically injecting 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) into the right medial forebrain bundle of 60 rats. Thirty-two of them were successfully induced into models with PD and equally randomized into PD group, L-dopa plus physiological saline treatment group, L-dopa plus PSD-95antisense oligonucleotide treatment group and L-dopa plus TE treatment group (n=8). The rats in the PD group were treated intraperitoneally with 0.2% ascorbic acid physiological saline water. The rats in the for 22 d. On the following 3 days, the rats were performed intraperitoneal injection of physiological saline water, injection of PSD-95 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide and TE buffer in the striatum,respectively. Another 8 rats were chosen as normal control group, only given solvent. Rotational reaction time and the largest number of revolutions within 5 minutes of rotation were estimated on the 25th d of injection. After rats being sacrificed, Mrna and protein expressions of PSD-95 at the corpus striatum were observed by RT-PCR and Western blotting, repectively. Results After chronic treatment with L-dopa methylester, the rotational reaction time was prolonged and the the largest number of revolutions within 5 minutes of rotation of PD rats was decreased in the L-dopa plus PSD-95 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide group on the 25th d, as compared with those in the L-dopa plus physiological saline water group and L-dopa plus TE group (P＜0.05). In the lesioned striatum of PD rats, the abundance of PSD-95 Mrna and protein expressions were statistically and evidently reduced as compared with those in the control group (P＜0.05). After chronic treatment of PD rats with L-dopa, the abundance of PSD-95mRNA and protein expressions were statistically and evidently increased as compared with that in the PD group (P＜0.05). Pretreatment with PSD-95 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide statistically and obviously reduced the abundance of PSD-95 protein expression as compared with pretreatment with chronic L-dopa (P＜0.05). Conclusion PSD-95 may play a significant role in the pathogenesis of motor complications of rats with PD receiving chronic L-dopa treatment.

Objective To analyze the genetic characterizations of wild type measles viruses caused the measles outbreak in Xinjiang. Methods Vero/Slam cell were used for measles viruses isolation from the specimens collected from measles outbreaks patients. Fragment of 676 nucleotide acids of the carboxylend of nucleoprotein gene were amplified using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reation (RT-PCR) method and then the PCR products were directly sequenced and analyzed. Phylogenetic tree was constructed based on 450 nucleotide acids of the N-terminus of nucleoprotein gene, and homological analysis was performed at nucleotide acid level. Results 11 measles viruses were sequenced and all belonged to H1a subgenotype.The nucleotide difference was 0-0. 2% between 11 Xinjiang isolates. And the nucleotide difference was 2.2%-2.4% between Xinjiang isolates and H1 genotype reference strain. Conclusion The Measles viruses causing the measles outbreak in Xinjiang were H1a subgenotype.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effects of Danlou Tablet (DT) on inflammatory reaction, and expressions of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (LP-PLA2), secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2), and to analyze potential mechanisms.

METHODSForty male Wistar rats were randomly and equally divided into five groups, i.e., the normal control group, the model group, the Western medicine (WM) group, the low dose DT group, the high dose DT group, 8 in each group. Rats in the normal control group were fed with basic forage for 12 successive weeks, while AS rat model was established in rats of the other four groups by feeding high fat and sugar forage plus intraperitoneal injection of vitamin D₃. Normal saline, atorvastatin calcium suspension (at the daily dose of 1.8 mg/kg), low dose DT suspension (at the daily dose of 450 mg/kg), and high dose DT suspension (at the daily dose of 900 mg/kg) were administered to rats in the model group, the WM group, the low dose DT group, the high dose DT group respectively by gastragavage for 8 successive weeks. The general condition of all rats was observed. Rats were sacrificed after gastric administration and their serum collected. Serum levels of lipids (TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C) and inflammatory factors [IL-6, TNF-α, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1), oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL), lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (LP-PLA2), secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2)] were detected. Pathological changes of thoracic aorta were observed by HE staining. Protein and gene expressions of LP-PLA2 and sPLA2 in thoracic aorta were measured by Western blot and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR respectively.

RESULTSCompared with the normal control group, rats in the model group were in low spirits and responded poorly. Typical atherosclerotic plaque could be seen in thoracic aorta of rats in the model group. Serum levels of TC, TG, LDL-C, IL-6, TNF-α, MCP-1, ox-LDL, LP-PLA2, and sPLA2 significantly increased (P < 0.05); protein and gene expressions of LP-PLA2 and sPLA2 in rat thoracic aorta increased (P < 0.05) in the model group. After 8 weeks of intervention, rats in 3 medication groups appeared active, and HE staining showed subsidence of plaque in rat thoracic aorta. Compared with the model group, serum levels of TC, TG, LDL-C, IL-6, TNF-α, MCP-1, ox-LDL, and LP-PLA2 decreased in 3 medication groups (P < 0.01, P < 0.05); serum sPLA2 level decreased, protein and mRNA expressions of LP-PLA2 and sPLA2 in rat thoracic aorta decreased in the WM group (P < 0.01, P < 0.05); protein and mRNA expressions of LP-PLA2 in rat thoracic aorta significantly decreased in the low dose DT group (P < 0.01, P < 0.05), and those of LP-PLA2 and sPLA2 decreased in the high dose DT group (P < 0.01, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONDT could fight against inflammatory reaction and AS possibly through inhibiting LP-PLA2 expression and reducing ox-LDL production.
