Objective To observe the effects of berberine hydrochloride on the secretion of interleukin-6(IL-6)from human periodontal ligament cells(PDLCs)cultured in vitro.Methods Periodontal ligament tissues were isolated from extracted human premolars,and PDLCs were cultured in vitro.After identification by immunohistochemistry technique,human PDLCs were divided into LPS group and NLPS group according to whether lipopolysaccharide(LPS,50 ?g/mL)was contained in cell culture media.Then in accordance with the final concentrations of berberine hydrochloride in cell culture media(0,0.010,0.020,and 0.030 g/L),the groups were subdivided into LPS and NLPS control group,LPS1 and NLPS1 group,LPS2 and NLPS2 group,LPS3 and NLPS3 group.IL-6 contents in supernatants of each group were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,and statistical analysis and comparison were conducted as well.Results Compared with corresponding LPS and NLPS groups,IL-6 contents in supernatants of LPS3 group and NLPS3 group reduced markedly(P

Objective To discuss imaging differentiating diagnosis of basal ganglia infarction by summarizing the features of 17 lesions on CT and MRI.Methods Among 17 cases, 6 were children occurred after their injury, and ranged in age from 5 to 11 years old with average 8 years old. Others were adults ranged in age from 53 to 78 years old with average 63 years old. All patients were examined with CT plain scans. 11 cases were underwent MRI and 5 were underwent 1 H MRS.Results 6 lesions in children were all single lateral cases. Among 11 adult lesions, 10 were single lateral and 1 was bilateral case. Basal ganglia infarctions demonstrated hyposignal on T_1WI, hypersignal on T_2WI and hypodense on CT. The lateral ventricles' anterior horns of the same side were pressed and narrow. On 1 H MRS, Lac was obviously observed in all lesions. NAA decreased markedly in 4 lesions and slightly in 1 lesion. 2 basal ganglia infarctions were together with hemorrhage.Conclusion Basal ganglia infarctions were mainly observed in the elder with arteriosclerosis and injured children. Its features on CT and MRI are characteristic, but it is in need of differentiating from basal ganglia lesions caused by other reasons. Marked Lac on 1 H MRS is its character.

ObjectiveTo study the effects and mechanism of survivin gene on invasion of prostate cancer cell.MethodsAfter PC-3 prostate cancer cell lines were transfected by survivin small interfering RNA (siRNA), the mRNA and protein of survivin and matrix metalloproteinase-2 and-9 were determined by real time RT-PCR and western blot assay, respectively. The anchorage-independent growth was examined by clon formation in soft agar, and invasion ability was evaluated by boyden chamber model.The invasion ability of cancer cells in vivo was determined by nude mice model. ResultsThe results from clon formation in soft agar showed that the colonies numbers of group of 3.125,6.250 and 12.500 nmol/L of siRNA were 17.8±1.6,13.6±1.5 and 8.8±1.4, and the control group was 22.6±1.8(P<0.05). The results from boyden chamber model exhibited that the cells numbers crossing filter membrane in group of 3.125,6.25 and 12.5 nmol/L of siRNA were 33.6±2.1,19.5±1.9,8.1±1.83, and the control group was 49.4±2.3(all P<0.05). The results in vivo showed that cancer cells of control groups invaded into striped muscle and blood vessel, and there were no these phenomenons in transferred group with survivin siRNA. Survivin siRNA could reduce expression level of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in prostate cancer cells(P<0. 01).Conclusions Survivin-directed RNA interference can inhibit invasion of human prostate cancer cell through down-regualting MMP-2,-9 genes.

Objective To study the effects and mechanism of evodiamine on human colon cancer cell. Methods After human colon cancer SW620 cell were treated with different doses of evodiamine, the growth of anchorage independence of cancer cell was studied by colony formation in soft agar, and invasion ability was determined by Boyden chamber,and the level of mRNA and protein of midkine gene was detected by real time RT-PCR and Western blot assay, respectively. Results Ecodiamine could significantly inhibit both invasion ability and anchorage independence growth in dose-dependent manners. The level of mRNA and pro-tein of midkine of cancer cells treated with evodiamine reduced in time-and dose-dependent manners Conclusion Evodiamine could inhibit invasion of colon carcinoma cell through down-regulating of midkine expression.

Objective To explore the effect of focused nursing model on negative emotions and subjective well-being of lung cancer patients. Methods Eighty-six lung cancer patients hospitalized from November 2014 to November 2016 in our hospital were divided into two groups according to the order of admission in equal number. The control group was treated with routine care, and the observation group was with focused nursing model. The two groups were compared in terms of anxiety by SAS, depression by SDS, subjective well-being. Results The scores by SAS and SDS in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The levels of objective support, subjective support, self-evaluation and subjective well-being index of the observation group were higher than the control group (P <0.05). Conclusion Focused nursing model can effectively relieve negative emotions, improve subjective well-being of lung cancer patients, worthy of clinical promotion.

A new method of determination of COHb is reported in this paper by two- wavelength second-derivative spectrophotometry.Blood was diluted with a solution of THAM containing Na_2S_2O_4.The second-derivative spectrum was measured in the region of 500-600 nm and the derivative absorbance differerce ?Ax was deter mined at the wavelengths of 564 nm and 576 nm.Then the solution was satura- ted with CO gas.The second-derivative spectrum of COHb was measured in the same region.The derivative absorbance difference ?A_(100) was determined at the same wavelengths.The COHb in blood was calculated by the ratio of ?Ax to ?A_(100).The results of determination of COHb in standard blood samples were in good agreement with the theoretical values.

Objective To investigate the pathological change in articular cartilages after firearm injury.Methods Four rabbits from 28 New Zealand healthy rabbits were chosen as control group and subjected to joint capsule incision only. Another 24 rabbits were equally divided into 6 experimental groups( groups B to G) and subjected to medial femoral condyle cartilage surface damage by the nail gun.After the operation, their specimens were collected after 6 h,3 d,7 d,14 d,28 d and 56 d, respectively.Tissue sections were observed and stained by HE staining and toluidine blue staining.The histolopathological changes in articular cartilage after firearm injury were detected.Results The color of articular cartilages in experimental groups became lighter, the cell number increased but then decreased, the articular cartilage layer disappeared, the cell shape became uneven, cells began to cluster and the Mankin score increased, and the statistical differences between experimental groups and control group were significant.Conclusion The histological pathological changes in articular cartilages after fiream injury seem to follow some pattern.The degeneration seems obvious after 7 days and then becomes heavier.
