[Objective] To answer the following questions:① For Oncomelania snails collected two years apart from the same locality,has there been genetic divergence?②How much experimental error has there been in studying subsets of these populations? ③As this is an unstable population,what has the net effect been on Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium(Hwe)?[Methods] Allozymes were studied using horizontal starch gel electrophoresis.Data collected from numbers of experiments were conapiled.Data from each collection were divided into two equal subsets based on chronology of the experiments.Thirty-four loci were studied using 72 to 180 snails per subset.[Results] The mean number of alleles per locus ranged frcra 1.5~1.9.With each consecutive subset,the 96 polymorphic loci dropped from 38.2 to 17.6.The mean heterozygosity was very low:0.033 to 0.049 and not significantly different from Hardy-Weinberg expectations.Ten loci and 11 alleles exclusive to the first group were eliminated from the overall study reducing the number of polymorphic loci from 19 to 10.There were significant departures from Hwe at five loci having a substantial number of individuals for each allele.Nei's and Wright's D were 0.003±0.001 and 0.054±0.006 respectively.[Conclusion] ①There were significant errors seen primarily in the results scored' in the earliest experiments.②These earlier errors involving scoring difficult to resolve loci,and interpretation of rare alleles that were not found in later experiment had no significant effect on overall genetic distance.③The use of Wright's D for closely related populations is explained.Results with Nei's D indicated no significant difference among the four subunits; Wright's D yielded significant difference between the collections made two years apart,attributed to the annual flooding of the Yangtze River mixing snails from different localities.④ Major polymorphic loci were not in Hwe as predicted using the unstable population model.⑤One must study 25 or more individuals to find relatively rate alleles and study population genetics.

BACKGROUND:Low toxicity of Genipin has certain species and cellspecificity. Biocompatibility of Genipin cross-linked type I colagen with human adipose-derived stem cels is essential for construction of
tissue-engineered adipose.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the bbiocompatibility of Genipin cross-linked type I colagen with human adipose-derived stem cels.
METHODS:Human adipose-derived stem cels were isolated and cultured to the third generation, and the cels were seeded on Genipin cross-linked type I colagen scaffold. MTT assay was used to evaluate the adhesion and proliferation of cels on the scaffold, and the toxic effects of Genipin cross-linked type I colagen on human
adipose-derived stem cels. Optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy were utilized to observe the adhesion and growth process of human adipose-derived stem cels on the scaffold as wel as the morphological changes of cels.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Human adipose-derived stem cels could adhere to the scaffold immediately
after seeded and increase gradualy on the scaffold, with the average adhesion rate of 86.5%. Optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy showed that human adipose-derived stem cels adhered wel on the scaffold. The cels increased gradualy over time, and could migrate into the scaffold, and distribute evenly with the passage of time when observed with optical microscopy. The result showed Genipin possesses very low cytotoxicity to the cels, and the outstanding biocompatibility is found between the cels and scaffoldin vitro after cross-linked with Genipin.

BACKGROUND:Based on the original advantages of silk fibroin, positive charged water-soluble chitosan modified silk fibroin is modified on surface and could improve celladhesion on the scaffolds. OBJECTIVE:To verify the biocompatibility of chitosan-modified silk fibroin with human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs), and feasibility of constructing tissue engineered adipose in vitro. METHODS:The hADSCs at passage 3 were seeded on chitosan-modified silk fibroin at the concentration of 1×107/L, as the experiment group;at the same cellconcentration, hADSCs were seeded in 96-wel plates as the control group. MTT tests were performed to evaluate the adhesion, growth and proliferation of hADSCs on chitosan-modified silk fibroin. Then hADSCs were implanted on the chitosan-modified silk fibroin scaffolds at the concentration of 1×109/L. The hADSCs seeded onto chitosan-modified silk fibroin complexes were respectively cultured with adipogenic differentiation medium and ordinary high-glucose DMEM. The complexes were stained with oil red O, and detected with RT-PCR after cultured 14 days. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The hADSCs adhered to and proliferated on the scaffolds. After cultured with adipogenic differentiation medium for 14 days, oil red O staining demonstrated that there were amount of mature adipocytes on the scaffold. The peroxisome proliferator activated receptorγ2 was positively expressed. The chitosan-modified silk fibroin possessed excellent biocompatibility in vitro. The co-cultured hADSCs could be induced to mature adipocytes successful y.

OBJECTIVEEffects of ginsenoside Rb1, Rg1 and Re on neurotrophic factor signal transduction pathway using liposome-mediated transfection of eukaryotic cells approach.
METHODThe injury model was established by treating SH-SY5Y cells with 0.6 mmol x L(-1) of corticosterone (CORT) by 24 h. SH-SY5Y cell were pretreated with CORT for 30 min followed by co-treated with 120,60 and 20 micromol x L(-1) of Rb1, 120, 80 and 40 micromol x L(-1) of Rg1 and 120, 80 and 40 micromol x L(-1) of Re for 24 h. Cells viability was determined by Cell Counting Kit (CCK) assay. CREB expressing Luciferase reporter gene was constructed and transfected with plasmid containing hRaf, hcAMP, hAkt, hCaMK gene into human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells using liposornal transfection reagent lipofection 2000. The expression of CREB before and after it addion of Rb1, Rg1 and Re was examined by Luc assay system and Western blotting.
RESULTCompared with normal control group, CORT significantly decreased the viability of SH-SY5Y cells to 67.21% (P < 0.01). CCK results show that Rb1 (60 micromol x L(-1)), Rg1 (80 micromol x L(-1)) and Re (80 micromol x L(-1)) on SH-SY5Y cells have significant protective effect (P < 0.01). Lucassay and Western blotting results show that the gene and protein levels of CREB increased significantly through the pathway of Raf and Akt with Rb1 and Rg1 (P < 0.01), Re can increase significantly the gene and protein levels of CREB through the pathway of Raf and CaMK II.
CONCLUSIONRb1, Rg1 and Re protects SH-SY5Y cells from CORT-induced damage and the neuroprotective mechanism may be associated with the Raf-CREB, Akt-CREB and CaMK II -CREB pathways.

Objective To investigate network user's attention rate of the keyword“cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases”(CCD). Methods The keyword was analyzed by using Baidu index. Results The overall trend of keyword search rose slightly. The mobile search grew significantly. During the Spring Festival overall search decreased significantly. According to clustering analysis the word“symptom”was most often used with“CCD”;30 to 39 years old age group accounted for about 50%of total number of online search. Men accounted for 70% of all keyword search, women accounted for 30%. The rankings of CCD search number were more on top in the economically developed area. Conclusion It is necessary to strengthen publicity and education to prevent the happening of CCD during Spring Festival. Men need to raise awareness about CCD. The construction of rural informatization should be speeded up. Network education could be used as a part of method for the primary and secondary prevention of CCD. Keyword analysis method could effectively analyze the network user search behavior and find information they need.

Purpose To discuss the value of MRI in the diagnosis of placenta implantation abnormality, and to explore preliminarily the relationship between MRI signs and types of placenta implantation abnormality. Materials and Methods The clinical preoperative data and postnatal pathological findings of 54 women at high risk of placenta accreta were collected. All the patients undertook the conventional pelvic MRI examination. The scanning sequences mainly included: sagittal, coronal and axial T2-weighted imaging-turbo spin echo, balance fast field echo. The MRI images were observed and the areas which showed low signal in all the three directions on T2WI were measured. Then the correlation between the areas of low signal on T2WI in placental and the types of placenta implantation abnormality was analyzed. Results The incidence of placenta implantation abnormality was 64.8% in our research (35/54). The main MRI signs were low signal on T2WI (68.5%, 37/54) and heterogeneous signal in placenta (57.4%, 31/54); the main sign of placenta percreta was tenting bladder (75.0%, 6/8). The types of placenta implantation abnormality were positively correlated with the areas of low signal on T2WI (r=0.454, P<0.05). Conclusion Pregnant women at risk of placenta accreta should be evaluated with imaging examinations, particularly with MRI scanning, to improve disease detection rate. The typical indirect signs of placenta implantation abnormality are low signal on T2WI and heterogeneous signal in placenta. The larger size of low signal area on T2WI in placenta, the deeper implantation of placenta.
