BACKGROUND:Development of new coronary thrombolytic agents is hot in the market. A new drug, mutated recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rtPAm), is the product of mutation of tPA by changing binding loci with plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1 to reduce the degradation. In vitro test has demonstrated that the activity of rtPAm is much higher than rtPA in the absence of PAI. The present study is to observe the efficacy of mutated recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rtPAm) in coronary thrombolytic therapy. METHODS:A total of 30 adult beagles were equally divided into 5 groups after thrombi:vehicle group, urokinase group, rtPAm low-dose group, rtPAm medium-dose group, and rtPAm high-dose group. Thrombolytic effect and myocardial infarction were observed after thrombolytic therapy. RESULTS:In the urokinase group, time to reperfusion was (15.8±3.8) minutes. TIMI 2 flow was demonstrated in 4 beagles, TIMI 3 flow in 2, and re-occlusion in 4 after 90 minutes respectively. In the low-dose rtPAm group, time to reperfusion was (15±4.5) minutes; TIMI 2 flow was demonstrated in 2 beagles, TIMI 3 flow in 4, and re-occlusion in 2 after 90 minutes. In the high-dose rtPAm group, time to reperfusion was (7.5±2.6) minutes. None of the beagles showed re-occlusion after 90 minutes. The infarction areas were (2.1+0.9)％ in the medium-dose rtPAm group and (0.7+0.4)％ in the high-dose rtPAm group, which decreased significantly than those in the low-dose rtPAm group. The aggregation rate in the medium-dose and high-dose rtPAm groups decreased significantly than that in the urokinase group. CONCLUSION:rtPAm may serve as a thrombolytic agent with platelet-targeted fibrinolysis and antiplatelet aggregation activities.

Objective To quantitatively assess the virucidal activities of three commercial disin-fectants against human infected highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses subtype H5. Methods The 50%tissue culture infective dose ( TCID50 ) of avian influenza viruses was calculated. Quantitative suspension test was performed to evaluate the efficacy of three disinfectants. In that test, 105 TCID50 of avian influenza viru-ses were exposed to different disinfectants at different concentrations for different times with or without the in-terference with fetal bovine serum ( FBS) simulating the contaminated condition. The residual infectivity was determined by endpoint titration in Madin-Darby canine kidney ( MDCK) cells. The detail steps were that the mixture of viruses and disinfectants was inoculated at 37℃ with 5% CO2 for 1 hour. Then, it was re-placed by virus dilution medium and further incubated for 18 to 20 hours. ELISA was performed for the cal-culation of TCID50 . The titers of residual viruses were calculated according to Reed and Muench method. The low pathogenic avian influenza virus H9N2 was chosen as the control in this study. Results The re-mained infectivities of three viruses after 1 minute exposure to 1% Virkon solution were below the limit of de-tection (1. 0 lgTCID50/100 μl). Exposing to 0. 5% Virkon solution decreased the viral titers of H5N1 and H9N2 viruses below the detection limit and reduced the titer of H5N6 virus to 1. 75 lgTCID50/100 μl. The virucidal efficacy of 0. 25% Virkon solution against some of the detected viruses was achieved by increasing the exposure time to 5 minutes. The 84 Disinfectant solutions at concentrations of 10%, 5% and 2. 5% low-ered the viral titers of three viruses below the detection limit of 1. 0 lgTCID50/100 μl, but the 1. 25% 84 Disinfectant solution only lowered the viral titers to 1. 25-2. 5 lgTCID50/100 μl. The similar results were ob-served in groups treated with SOLARSEPT solutions. 1% 84 Disinfectant solution didn′t show any virucidal activity against the three viruses after 1 minute of exposure even when the exposure time was extended to 5 minutes. Under the contaminated condition, 1% Virkon solution, 10% and 5% 84 Disinfectant solutions as well as 100% and 50% SOLARSEPT solutions lowered the viral titers below 1. 0 lgTCID50/100μl. Conclu-sion The three commercial disinfectants (1% Virkon solution, 10% 84 Disinfectant solution and SOLAR-SEPT solution) were efficient virucides for highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses subtype H5 even under the contaminated condition. Increasing the exposure time had no significant effects on the efficacy of three disinfectants after the virucidal activities were neutralized by enough viruses. No significant differences in vi-rucidal activities of three disinfectants against HPAI H5 viruses and LPAI H9 virus were observed.

As the uses of dental implants are prevailing, the need for sinus bone graft is increasing. Deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) was not mentioned in 1996 Sinus Bone Graft because of the deficit of the available data. Since then, many clinical and laboratory reports support the use of DBBM in the sinus bone graft procedure. In this report, the histological and clinical successes of sinus bone grafting with DBBM is discussed with available literatures. After sinus bone grafts with DBBM, the proportion of new bone formed was similar or superior to natural maxillary posterior alveolar bone after healing period of 6 months to 1 year. It seems that the grafted DBBM is not be either resorbed nor replaced with bone, but this may not disturb the osseointegration of dental implants installed into it. The clinical survival rates of dental implants installed on the sinus grafted with DBBM was similar to those installed on the ungrafted posterior maxillary alveolar ridge or grafted with autogenous bone. So, it can be concluded that DBBM can be used successfully in the sinus bone graft.

In order to make sure whether Panax notoginseng is sensitive to chloridion and guide fertilization in planting of P. notoginseng, the effects of the different proportion of potassium chloride (KCl) and potassium sulfate (K2SO4) on the yield, quality of P. notoginseng were studied. The results showed that K fertilizer significantly improved the growth of P. notoginseng and increased the biomass per plant or per pot and the content of N, P, K and the content of saponin. In cases of conditions such as potassium, and the effects of K2SO4 on increasing the petiole length, leaf size, rhizome length, root length, and content and accumulation of Ginsenoside Rg1 were better than those of KCl. While compared with K2SO4, KCl was more conducive to augmenting height, root width, the biomass of shoot, rhizome, root and the content of Ginsenoside Rb1 and Rd. There was not remarkable difference in agronomic characters, biomass and the content of N, P, K among KCl, K2SO4 and the combination of KCl and K2SO4. However, the content of saponin of the treatment with combination of KCl and K2SO4 was significant higher than that of single KCl or K2SO4 treatments. K fertilizer significantly increased yield and the content of saponins. And P. notoginseng was not sensitive to chloridion. KCl increased the yield and the content of saponins of P. notoginseng as well as K2SO4, and the combination treatment was superior to single treatment. It is recommended that the KCl should be adopted in production, to reduce the cost of potash fertilizer.

Abstract: To investigate the distribution of avian influenza virus in environmental samples from live poultry markets (LPM) in China, samples were collected and tested by nucleic acid during 2009-2013 season. Each sample was tested by real-time RT PCR using flu A specific primers. If any real-time PCR was positive, the sample was inoculated into specific-pathogen-free (SPF) embryonated chicken eggs for viral isolation. The results indicated that the positive rate of nucleic acid in enviromental samples exhibited seasonality. The positive rate of nucleic acid was significantly higher in Winter and Spring. The positive rate of nucleic acid in LPM located in the south of China was higher than in northern China. Samples of Sewage for cleaning poultry and chopping board showed that higher positive rate of nucleic acid than other samples. The Subtype identification showed that H5 and H9 were main subtypes in the enviromental samples. Viral isolation indicated H5 subtypes was more than H9 subtypes between 2009 and 2013 while H9 subtypes increased in 2013. Our findings suggested the significance of public health based on LPM surveillance and provided the basis of prevention and early warning for avian flu infection human.

Objective To study the effects of serum of the Zhuartgguqiang jin tablets on the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stromal stem cells (BMSCs) of aged rats.Methods The BMSCs were obtained from male SD rats of 18 months.The cell surface markers CD34,CD31,CD29 were detected by flow cytometry.The proliferation of BMSCs treated by different concentration of medicated serum (2.5％,5％,10％) at 24,48,72hours was detected by CCK-8 method.The BMSCs were divided into 4 groups,which were osteogenic induction group,the Chinese medicated osteogenic induction group,Chinese medicine group,the blank group.After the BMSCs were cultured for 7 days,alkaline phosphatase (ALP) vitality was detected.After the BMSCs were cultured for 14 days,the BMSCs were stained by alizarin red,the mRNA of ALP and osteocalcin(OC) was detected.Results The expressionof CD29 was positive,and the expression of CD31 and CD34 were negative.2.5％,5％ of the medicated serum could promote cell proliferation.The ALP vitality of osteogenic induction group[202.76 ± 15.44(U/gprot)],the Chinese medicated osteogenic induction group [240.48 ± 18.55 (U/gprot)],Chinese medicine group [178.87 ± 17.29 (U/gprot)]were significantly higher than that of blank group [111.24 ± 20.71 (U/gprot)] (t =22.50,7.985,3.535,all P ＜0.01).The ALP activity of Chinese medicated osteogenic induction group was higher than that of osteogenic induction group (t =3.103,P ＜ 0.05).The ALP gene relative OD value of osteogenic induction group (0.40 ± 0.20) and Chinese medicated osteogenic induction group (0.60 ± 0.06) were higher than the blank group (0.09 ± 0.03) (t =2.372,9.547,all P ＜0.01).The ALP gene expression of Chinese medicated osteogenic induction group was obviously higher than that of the osteogenic induction group(P ＜0.05).The OC gene relative OD value of osteogenic induction group(0.58 ± 0.09) and Chinese medicated osteogenic induction group(0.76 ± 0.11) were higher than the blank group(0.41 ± 0.02) (P ＜ 0.05,P ＜ 0.01).The OC gene expression of Chinese medicated osteogenic inductiongroup was obviously higher than that of the osteogenic induction group(t =2.673,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Medicated serum of Zhuangguqiangjin tablets can promote the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs of aged rats,which may be the mechanism of prevention senile osteoporosis.

The clinical characteristics of patients who presented in poor clinical grade due to ruptured middle cerebral artery aneurysms (MCAAs) associated with large sylvian hematomas (SylH) were analyzed and an ingenious designed prophylactic hinged craniectomy was introduced. Twenty-eight patients were graded into Hunt-Hess grades IV-V and emergency standard micro-neurosurgeries (aneurysm clipping, hematoma evacuation and prophylactic hinged craniectomy) were performed, and their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. 46.43% of the patients reached encouraged favorable outcomes on discharge. The favorable outcome group and the poor outcome group significantly differed in terms of patients' anisocoria, Hunt-Hess grade before surgery, extent of the midline shift and time to the surgery after bleeding (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in age, sex, volume and location of the hematoma, size of aneurysm between the favorable and poor groups (P>0.05). However, ingenious designed prophylactic hinged craniectomy efficiently reduced the patients' intracranial pressure (ICP) after surgery. It was suggested that preoperative conditions such as Hunt-Hess grading, extent of the midline shift and the occurrence of cerebral hernia affect the prognosis of patients, but time to the surgery after bleeding and prophylactic hinged craniectomy are of significant importance for optimizing the prognosis of MCAA patients presenting with large SylH.
