Stroke is one of the most common diseases among middle and senior - aged people,and depressive disorder,which hinders severely recovery and prognosis,is one of the complications of stroke.This paper analyzes the efficiency of social intervention mode on patients with post - stroke depressive disorder,and comes up with the conclusion that social intervention mode can not only help to ameliorate the occurrence of post - stroke depressive disorder,but also promote the recovery of patients' nervous function.Therefore,the social intervention mode can be regarded as an effective means for medical treatment.

Objective To investigate the influence of propofol on the induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression in spinal cord after spinal cord injury (SCI) in rats. Methods SCI model was reproduced according to Allen′s method with modification. Seventy-four SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: normal group (n=4), SCI with propofol treatment group (n=35), and SCI with saline treatment group (n=35). Immunohistochemistry and Western blot were employed to detect iNOS expression in spinal cord at different time (1h, 3h, 8h, 1d, 3d, 7d, 14d). Results The results showed that iNOS expression in spinal cord of propofol treatment group was significantly decreased compared with that of saline treatment group (P

Objective To analyse the clinicopathological features of primary small intestine lymphoma(PSIL), and explore the relationship between clinical stage,histological findings,therapeutic modality and prognosis. Methods The clinical data of 34 cases of PSIL were collected,the pathohistological features and results of immunohistochemical examinations were obtained,and the follow-up findings were adopted for comprehensive analysis. Results Among these 34 cases of PSIL,abdominal pain or discomfort,gastrointestinal bleeding and abdominal mass were the predominant symptoms.PSIL mainly involved ileum,especially the bottom of ileum and ileocecal area.Among the 26 patients with follow-up for more than one year,the 1-year survival rate was significantly higher in patients without tumor perforation than those with tumor perforation(76.2% vs 20.0%)(P

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of extracellular regulating kinase (ERK) signaling pathway on the secretion of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in cultured rat hippocampal neurons induced by stromal cell derived factor-1 (SDF-1).

METHODSThe hippocampal neurons of newborn SD rats were cultured and identified in vitro; the phosphorylation level of ERK1/2 was examined by Western blot; ELISA was used to detect the effect of PD98059, a ERK1/2 specific blocker on GABA secretion of cultured hippocampal neurons and Western blot were adopted to measure the protein expression levels of glutamate decarboxylase (GAD65/67) and gamma aminobutyric acid transporter (GAT); after blocking ERK1/2 signaling pathway with PD98059; RT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of GAT-1 and GAD65 after treated with PD98059.

RESULTSThe levels of ERKl/2 phosphorylation were increased significantly by SDF1 acting on hippocampal neurons, and CX-CR4 receptor blocker AMD3100, could inhibit SDF-1 induced ERK1/2 activation; SDF-1 could inhibit the secretion of GABA in cultured hippocampal neurons, and ERK1/2 specific inhibitor PD98059, could partly reverse the inhibition of GABA secretion by SDF-1. The effects of SDF-1 on cultured hippocampal neurons was to decrease the mRNA genesis of glutamic acid decarboxylase GAD65 and GABA transporter GAT-1, besides, ERK inhibitor PD98059 could effectively flip the effect of SDF-1. The results of Western blot showed that SDF-1 could inhibit the protein expression of GAT-1 and GAD65/67 in hippocampal neurons and the inhibition of GAT-1 and GAD65/67 protein expression could be partially restored by ERK1/2 blocker.

CONCLUSIONSDF-1 acts on the CXCR4 of hippocampal neurons in vitro, and inhibits the expression of GAD by activating the ERK1/2 signaling pathway, and this may represent one possible pathway of GABA secretion inhibition.

Aim To observe the effect of hemodialysis on pharmacokinetics of sparfloxacin in thepatients contracting chronic renal failure. Methods Sparfloxacin concentrations inserum and urine of hemodialysis and non-dialysis patients were measured with a highperformance liquid chromatography method after administration a single oral dose of 200mg sparfloxacin. The pharmacokinetic parameters were computed with the programPKBP-N1.Results The main pharmacokinetic parameters in hemodialysis group wereT1/2(ka) - (1. 25 ?0. 57) h, T1/2(?) = (11. 88?4. 13) h, Tpeak = (4. 18 ? 0. 78) h,Cmax = (0.80 ? 0. 17) mg? L-1 and AUC0-= (6. 90 ? 3. 25) mg?h?L-1, while innon-dialysis group were T1/ 2(ka) = (1. 12 ? 0. 42) h, T1/ 2(?) = (15. 93 ? 5. 20) h, Tpeak =(3. 88 ? 0. 75) h, Cmax = (0. 69 ? 0. 37) mg?L -1, AUC0-= (10.05 ? 4. 13) mg?h?L-l. The original sparfloxacin discharge rats in urine within 24 h were (8. 98 ? 3. 92) % and(10. 58 ? 5. 64) % separately. T1/2(?) and AUC in hemodialysis group were markedly lowerthan in non-dialysis group (P

Objective To investigate the regulatory effects of tuberculin on growth and apoptosis of liver cancer and lung cancer cell lines. Methods HePG2(liver cancer) and A549(lung cancer) cell lines were treated with TB supernatant(TB-SN) with different concentrations. Cell viability was detected by using LIVE/DEAD Viability/Cytotoxicity cell kits including specific fluorescence primer,and cell apoptosis was detected by Vybrant apoptosis assay. Results After treatment with 5% TB-SN for 5 d,cell apoptosis was significantly increased in HePG2 and A549 cell lines.Cell growth of HePG2 and A549 cell lines was inhibited after treatment with TB-SN. Conclusion Tuberculin can induce cell apoptosis and inhibit cell growth of liver cancer and lung cancer cell lines.

Objective: To investigate the role of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) in supporting hematopoiesis and the expansion of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells in vitro. Methods: According to the fact that HUVEC supernatant has colony stimulating activity shown by methylcellulose colony-forming assay and HUVEC can maintain the survival of mononuclear cells for at least four weeks in vitro, CD34+ cells from umbilical cord blood were seeded with (HUVEC group) or without (control group) HUVEC monolayer. Every week cells were collected and counted, the frequency of CFU-GM was measured by using methylcellulose colony-forming assay, and the percentage of CD34+ and CD41a+ cells was measured by flow cytometry. Results: In control group，all the CD34+ cells died in two weeks. However, in HUVEC group,most nucleated cells and CD34+ cells were expanded by 68.1±14.8 fold and 6.6±1.4 fold，respectively at the third week while CFU-GM expansion reached its peak (5.7±2.1 fold) at the week 2. Moreover, the percentage of CD41a+ cells was enhanced significantly, reaching a maximum (15.6%) at the week 3. Conclusions:HUVEC can support hematopoiesis in vitro and expand the hematopoietic progenitor cells and CD41a+ cells in direct contact coculture.
