Objective To explore the effect on effect of combined use of Y27632 (ROCK II inhibitor)and TDZD-8(GSK-3β inhibitor)on axonal regeneration of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons in neogenetic rats. Methods All the thoracolumbar DRGs of two neogenetic Sprague-Dawley (SD)rats(<5 days)were harvested under the stereopsis raicrostat,and then the DRG neurons were cultured,purified and indentified.Fifteen adult female SD rats were randomly divided into three groups,ie,complete paraplegia group(5 rats),sham operation control group(5 rats)and normal group(5 rats)respectively.The T8-10 spinal cord extracts (SCEs) were harvested in the complete paraplegia group,sham operation control group and normal group respectively at day 7 after spinal cord injury.The experiment was divided into group A(DRG neurons + PBS),group B(DRG neurons + complete paralysis SCE),group C(DRG neurons + complete paralysis SCE + different concentration Y27632),group D(DRG neurons + complete paralysis SCE + different concentration TDZD-8)and group E(DRG neurons + complete paralysis SCE + proper concentration Y27632 and TDZD-8).The average axonal length and expression intensity of Tubulin βⅢ at distal end of neuronal axons were observed after two days of co-culture respectively in intro. Results (1)The average axonal length and expression intensity of Tubulin βⅢ at axon shaft and growth cone in the group B were significantly shorter and weaker than that in the group A,with statistical difference.(2)In the group C,the average axonal length and expression intensity of Tubulln βⅢ at axon shaft and growth cone in 5-10 μmol/L Y27632 treatment groups were more than that in the group B but lower than that in the group A.The average axonal length and expression intensity of Tubuhn βⅢ at axon shaft and growth cone in 20-50 μmol/L Y27632 treatment group were longer and stronger than that in the group A and the group B,especially the group B.Among different concentration Y27632 treatment groups,there was a longest average axonal length and strongest expression intensity of Tubulin βⅢ in 30 μmol/L treatment group.(3) In the group D,there was a longer average axonal length in 0.5-3 μmol/L TDZD-8 treatment group than that in the group A and the group B,with the longeat average axonal length in l μmool/L TDZD-8 treatment group.In 5-25 μmol/L TDZD-8 treatment groups,the average axonal length showed no difference compared with the group B but wns shorter than that in the group A.In all different concentration TDZD-8 treatment groups,the expression intensity of Tubulin βⅢ at axon shaft and growth cone was significantly stronger than that in the groups A and B.(4) In the group E,although the average axonal length was increased in the group E,there was no statisilcal difference compared with the group A,30 μmol/L Y27632 treatment group and l μmol/L TDZD-8treatment group.There was a significantly longer average axonal length in the group E than it in the group B and the expression intensity of Tubulin βⅢ at axon shaft and growth cone was stronger in the group E compared to the group A,30 μmol/L Y27632 treatment group and l μmol/L TDZD-8 treatment group.Conclusion The complete paralysis SCEs obviously inhibits DRG axonal growth,induces axonal retraction and growth cone collapse.High concentration of Y27632 can more obviously promote the axon growth compared with the low concentration,while the low concentration of TDZD-8 can obviously promote the axon growth.Combined use of appropriate concentration of TDZD-8 and Y27632 can promote the axon growth and induce the axons branching,as facilitates the formation of the axon circuit.

Objective To compare the clinical diagnostic value of 320 row four-dimensional CT angiography (4D-CTA)and digital subtraction angiography (DSA)in untreated arteriovenous malformation (AVM)patients.Methods Thirty-six patients with AVM diagnosed by DSA were included in this study.Two independent readers blind to the results of all examinations evaluated the find-ings of DSA and 4D-CTA of each patient.All results were then documented using a standardized scoring sheet.Results The diagno-sis results of 4D-CTA for AVM lesions in all 36 patients were accurately consistent with those of DSA,including the position,size and vascular structure.There were 14 cases with the largest diameter <3 cm,20 cases 3-6 cm,2 cases >6 cm.Lesions involved only the anterior circulation in 13 cases,only the posterior circulation in 13 cases,and both the anterior and posterior circulation in 10 cases.Conclusion 4D CTA has excellent diagnostic accuracy in the detection of AVM lesions,including size,location,feeding ar-teries and draining veins,with similar value as DSA in the clinical diagnose and evaluation of AVM.

Objective Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura(HSP)is a common multisystemic vasculitis in children ,but the exact pathogenesis remains unknown. Pentraxin 3(PTX3),a new kind of inflammatory cytokines,has a strong inflammatory effect,and is involved in occurrence and develop-ment of a variety of autoimmune diseases. The objective of this study is to evaluate the expression of PTX3,interleukin-8(IL-8),tumor necrosis fac-tor-α(TNF-α)and high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)in children with HSP,and explore the clinical significance of PTX3 in HSP devel-opment. Methods Thirty-six children(HSP group)and 17 healthy children(control group)were enrolled in the study. Serum levels of PTX3,IL-8 and TNF-α were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Serum hs-CRP levels were measured by automatic biochemical analyzer. Re-sults The serum levels of PTX3,IL-8,TNF-α,and hs-CRP were up-regulated in HSP group compared with the control group(P<0.05). The levels of PTX3,IL-8,TNF-α,and hs-CRP in patients with joint symptoms,or/and gastrointestinal symptoms,or/and kidney injury were significant-ly higher than those patients without joint symptoms,or/and gastrointestinal symptoms,or/and kidney injury(P<0.05). The expression of PTX3 was positively correlated with the expression of IL-8 and TNF-α(r=0.514,0.833,all P<0.05),but there was no correlation between PTX3 and hs-CRP(r=0.292,P>0.05). The expression of PTX3,IL-8,TNF-α and hs-CRP in HSP patients had no gender difference(all P>0.05). Con-clusion The high expression of PTX3 is related to the degree of inflammation in children with HSP. The up-regulated expression of PTX3 may play an important role in pathogenesis of HSP in children.

Objective To investigate the impacts of water supply on water quality in the pipeline of the dental comprehensive treatment platform to contribute to pollution control.Methods Totally 8 platforms from the stomatological department underwent 2-a detection and tracing.The water sources included tap water,distilled water and filtered water,and the discharge water went through sampling and bacteriological analysis before and after disinfection.Results The mean numbers of colonies by tap water,distilled water and filtered water were (472±385),(380±372) and (446±382) cfu/ml respectively,and the qualification rates by tap water,distilled water and filtered water were 33.3％,45.8％ and 37.5％ respectively.All the colonies numbers were limited within 0 and 60 cfu/ml with the qualification rate being 100％ after disinfection.Conclusion Water source cannot relieve bacterial infection effectively,and disinfection eliminates bacteria and improves water quality in the pipeline of the dental comprehensive treatment platform.

Objective To investigate specific cellular immune response induced by dendritic cells(DCs) activated by human papilloma virus (HPV) 16 E7 peptide. Methods DCs separated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells were induced with granulocyte/macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin-4 (IL-4), the DCs were then activated by HPV 16 E7 peptide. After that the surface antigens on the DCs were detected by flow cytometer. Homogenic mixed lymphocyte reaction (HMLR) with DCs was performed. LDH release assay was also used to detect the activity of cytotoxic T lymphocytes(CTL)to Caski tumor cells, which was induced by DCs. Results The surface antigens on the activated DCs were highly expressed, such as CD1a(58.4 ? 6.7)%, CD80(70.6 ? 3.4)% and HLA-DR(74.8 ? 4.2)%. HMLR showed that the activated DCs stimulated T cell proliferation significantly. Antigen-specific CTL induced by the activated DCs specifically killed Caski tumer cells, but had no effect on SiHa and AN3CA cells. Conclusions DCs loaded with HPV 16 E7 peptide can induce highly effective and specific cellular immune response.

Objective To evaluate the effects of age factors on sedation induced by dexmedetomidine.Methods One hundred and thirty-nine patients,aged 18-103 yr,with body mass index ≤ 30 kg/m2,scheduled for elective surgeries on lower abdomen or lower extremities,were divided into4 groups according to the age:group Ⅰ (18 yr≤age≤44 yr,n=40);group Ⅱ (45 yr≤age≤59 yr,n=38);group Ⅲ (60 yr≤age≤89 yr,n=39);group Ⅳ (≥90 yr,n=22).A catheter was placed in the subarachnoid space at L3,4 interspace,and ropivacaine 10-20 mg was injected via the catheter.At 20 min after ropivacaine injection,dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg was infused via a pump over 10 min.The onset time and duration of sedation were recorded,and the occurrence of adverse effects such as hypoxemia,bradycardia and hypotension was observed.Results There was no significant difference in the onset time of sedation and incidence of bradycardia among the 4 groups (P＞0.05).Compared with group Ⅰ,the duration of sedation was significantly prolonged in Ⅱ-Ⅳ groups (P＜0.05).Compared with Ⅱ and Ⅲ groups,the duration of sedation was significantly prolonged in group Ⅳ (P ＜ 0.05).The incidence of hypoxemia and hypotension was significantly higher in group Ⅳ than in Ⅰ-Ⅲ groups (P＜0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine-induced sedation is influenced by age factors,the duration of sedation induced by dexmedetomidine is prolonged,and the occurrence of adverse effects is increased,especially if the patients ≥ 90 yr of age.

Objective To investigate characteristics of free fatty acid (FFA) and high-sensitivity Creactive protein (hs-CRP) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome (MS) compared to those with type 2 diabetes mellitus without MS.Methods Totally 120 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who received blood glucose control in Shaoxing People's Hospital from January to June 2013 were recruited and divided into MS group (n =56) and non-MS group (n =64).The serum FFA profile of the patients was measured by enzymatic assay, and the serum hs-CRP level measured by particle-enhanced immuno-precipitation assay.Results The level of FFA was higher in the MS group than that in the non-MS group [(0.60 ±0.25) mmoL/L vs.(0.45 ±0.21) mmol/L, P =0.033].The level of hs-CRP was higher in the MS group than that in the non-MS group [5.29 (4.69-5.82) mg/L vs.0.73 (0.42-1.26) mg/L, P =0.000].The level of hs-CRP was higher in the patients with central obesity than that in those without central obesity [4.34 (0.91-5.46) mg/L vs.1.80 (0.82-3.27) mg/L, P=0.014], also higher in hypertensive patients than in non-hypertensive patients [5.21 (3.18-5.96) mg/L vs.2.93 (0.89-4.98) mg/L, P =0.012].Conclusions Serum FFA and hs-CRP concentrations may be significantly higher in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with MS.The increased levels of FFA and hs-CRP may play an important role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus and MS.
