Poly ( aniline_luminol ) composite nanowires were synthesized by chemical oxidation using ammonium peroxydisulfate. In contrast to the maximum fluorescence emitting wavelength of luminol at 425 nm, the maximum fluorescence emitting wavelength of the polymeric luminol in the composite nanowires was red shifted to 465 nm obviously. The poly ( aniline_luminol) composite nanowires were modified on graphite electrode surface by drop coating, forming a stable poly ( aniline_luminol ) composite nanowires film. The composite nanowires film modified electrode presented favorable electrochemiluminescence ( ECL ) performances, and the ECL response could be enhanced by hydrogen peroxide. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the modified electrode provided a linear range of 5. 0×10-9-1. 0×10-5 mol/L for the detection of hydrogen peroxide with a detection limit of 2 ×10-9 mol/L.

Alzheimer disease (AD) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder,and the most common cause of dementia in the elderly.Accumulated evidences in AD research suggest that alterations in the microRNA (miRNA) network could contribute to risk for the disease.As the second discovered miRNA,Let-7 has an important effect on cell proliferation,differentiation,apoptosis,immune response,tumorigenesis,metastasis,and so on.We review in this article the role of Let-7 family in the pathogenesis of AD to provide a strong basis for future research aimed at understanding the potential contribution of miRNAs to AD pathophysiology.

Objective To investigate the effects of volatile oils of Rhizoma Acori Tatarinowii (RAT), Semen Myristicae (SM) and Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae (PCR) on percutaneous penetration of total alkali of Shortstalk Monkshood Root through mouse skin in vitro. Methods By using an improved Franz diffusion cells, the effects of these 3 kinds of volatile oil on the percutaneous penetration of total alkali of Shortstalk Monkshood Root were observed and compared with Azone, and the cumulative amount of Bullatine A was determined by HPLC. Results 7% (v/v) volatile oil RTA and SM, 5% (v/v) volatile oil of PCR and 3% (v/v) Azone were best concentration, the penetration coefficient were 5.88, 6.91, 5.30, 5.75, respectively. Compared with the group without penetration enhencers, the enhancement ratios were 1.09,1.28, 0.98, 1.06, respectively. Conclusion The volatile oil of RAT and SM enhance penetration of total alkali of Shortstalk Monkshood Root. The volatile oil of PCR cannot enhance penetration.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of the combination detection of blood lactic acid,B-type brain natri-uretic peptide(BNP)and homocysteine(Hcy)in elderly acute cerebral infarction.Methods The arterial and venous blood during a-cute onset stage,at 24,48,72 h after thrombolysis and at 12 h after fasting in 85 cases of acute cerebral infarction was collected for detecting blood lactic acid,BNP and Hcy,performing the dynamic monitoring analysis and the comparative observation with the healthy control group.Results The blood lactic acid,BNP and Hcy levels in the acute onset stage group and the recovery group were significantly increased compared with the healthy control group(P <0.05).The blood lactic acid,BNP and Hcy levels during the onset stage in the acute cerebral infarction group were(6.47 ±3.92)mmol/L,(100.52 ±48.96 )pg/mL and(48.96 ±15.13 )μmol/L respectively,which were significantly higher than those at 48,72 h of postoperative recovery,the differences between them were statistically significant(P <0.05).The blood lactic acid,BNP and Hcy levels during postoperative convalescence in the cere-bral infarction group were gradually decreased and declined to the minimal level until postoperative 72 h,which were(2.16±1.83) mmol/L,(33.61±10.42)pg/mL and(18.87±8.27)μmol/L respectively.Conclusion Blood lactic acid,BNP and Hcy are closely related with the occurrence and development of cerebral infarction,the joint detection of these three indicators provide a reliable ba-sis for the early diagnosis of elderly acute cerebral infarction.The active and effective treatment on the patient should be timely a-dopted and the dynamic monitoring should be performed in order to correctly assess the prognosis.

Clinical data of granulomatosa cheilitis of 33 cases were analysed.Odontogenic infectious foci were found in each patient.Elimination of odontogenic infectious foci was followed by regression or disappearance of the swellings in all the 33 cases,suggesting a close relationship between granulomatous cheilitis and odontogenic infectious foci.Elimination of odontogenic infectious foci can be an important measure for the treatment of granulomatous cheilitis.

In order to investigate the change in and relationship between endothelin 1(ET 1) and nitric oxide(NO) in hypoxic pulmonary hypertension(HPH),the content of ET 1 and NO in plasma and lung tissue homogenate, the expression and localization of ET 1, constitutive and inducible nitric oxide synthase(cNOS,iNOS) using immunohistochemistry in HPH of rats were assayed. The effect of NOS inhibitor nitro L arginine methyl ester(L NAME) on the content of ET 1 was also studied. The results showed that the content of ET 1 and NO in plasma of the HPH rats were significantly higher than that of controls; positive expression of ET 1 and iNOS were enhanced in the endothelium of vessels, the epithelium of bronchi and the smooth muscle of vessels and bronchi,but the expression of cNOS weakened The content of ET 1 in plasma and lung tissue homogenate were increased after administration of L NAME. The results indicate that in the normal animals, NO may suppress the secretion of ET 1. The increased ET 1 may play an important role in the development of HPH, and the induced iNOS may be the result of functional adaptation to chronic hypoxia.

Purpose:To investigate whether NSAIDs can induce apoptosis of gastric cancer cell lines,to observe the effect of different p53 genotype on NSAIDs induced apoptosis,to elucidate the regulation of NSAIDs on expression of apoptosis related genes. Methods:The anti-proliferative effect of NSAIDs was measured by MTT assay.Apoptosis was determined by acridine orange(AO) staining,Annexin-V/PI double staining,laser scanning cytometry(LSC) and flow cytometry (FCM).Alteration of bcl-2 and bax genes was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Protein expression was determined by Western-blotting.Results: Indomethacin (Indo) and Aspirin (Asp) inhibited both AGS(wild-type p53)and MKN28(mutant p53) gastric cancer cell lines growth in a time/dose dependent manner.AGS cell line was more sensitive to NSAIDs,which apoptosis percentage was significantly higher than MKN28 under the same condition. The percentages of apoptosis of MKN28 were somewhat higher among NSAIDs treated groups compared with the normal control group,but these slight differences were not statistically significant. The bax mRNA kept increasing since NSAIDs treatment accompanied by a decrease of bcl-2 gene.The Bax protein increased after treatment while the Bcl-2 protein was undetectable, which tendency was more obvious during 6-24hs.Conclusion: Both Indo and Asp could induce apoptosis in gastric cancer cell lines,which adds further theoretical foundation to the anti-cancer use of NSAIDs.NSAIDs could not induce notable apoptosis of MKN28,which indicated the mutant p53 gene perhaps blocked NSAIDs induced apoptosis.One of the major pathways that mediated the anti-tumour response of NSAIDs in gastric cancer cells was through up-regulation of bax and down-regulation of bcl-2 genes and/or proteins.[

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of distal embolic protection device(DPD) on acute myocardial infarction(AMI) with ST-segment elevation.Methods Two hundred and sixty-seven patients with ST-segment elevation AMI treated in emergency with percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) from Jan.1,2004 to Dec.31,2005 in the Department of Cardiology,Xijing Hospital were studied retrospectively.169 patients were included in control group and 98 in DPD group.Patients in control group were treated with emergency PCI,while those in DPD group were treated with DPD during emergency PCI.The incidence of "no-reflow" phenomenon,thrombolysis in myocardial infarction(TIMI) 3 flow,and ST segment resolution were observed,and mortality in-hospital and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) at 1 week after PCI were compared between the two groups.Results The incidence of "no-reflow" was 3.06%(3/98) in DPD group and 13.61%(23/169) in control group(P
