AIM To study the inhibitory effect and mechanism of n itrary flavone in Hep and U 14 tumor. METHODS The Hep or U 14 tumor cells were injected in the armpit subcutaneous layer of right foreleg of BALB/c strain mice. After 24 h,nitrary flavone at a does of 100 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 body weight or combine nitrary flavone with 5-Fu(100 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 body weight)was given (ip) and inhibitory rate of nitrary flavone for transplanted tumor and the immune function of mice were determined. RESULTS Administration of nitrary flavone to mice for 10 consecutive days exhibited significantly the inhibitory rate for Hep and U 14 by 34 11%,32 14% and 50 73%,47 22%,respectively, as well as the weight of immune organs of mice, formation value of serolysin and phagociytic index were significantly enhanced(P

In order to investigate the mechanism, the correlation between the odor change in Crataegi Fructus stir-fried process and 5-HMF were studied. Required samples were retrieved from Crataegi Fructus stir-fried process. Statistical quality control (SQC) was used to analyze the response values acquired by the electronic nose. At the same time, the content of 5-HMF was detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between the above two. Experimental results showed that SQC model established by response values of all samples could show the change law of odor in Crataegi Fructus stir-fried process and changes of 5-HMF content was dropped after the first increase. Correlation analysis showed that the odor change in Crataegi Fructus stir-fried process and 5-HMF were significantly correlated (P < 0.05). Sugar degradation reaction and the Maillard reaction may be one of the mechanisms of the odor change in Crataegi Fructus stir-fried process.

Twenty-three patients with uniloculated deep neck abscesses (UDNA),in whom the antibiotic therapy failed and CT-guided percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) was performed from January 2005 to June 2015,were included in the study.Catheter placement was carried out using Trocar technique in all cases.Open surgical drainage was performed when PCD procedures failed.The abscess was completely drained and open surgical drainage was avoided in 19 cases (83％);the surgical drainage was performed because of muhiple internal septation in 3 (13％) case,and 1 (4％) case died from uremia.In this series the technical success rate and clinical success rate of PCD were 96％ (22/23) and 83％ (19/23),respectively.All patients were followed-up by CT scan.No other complications and no mortality occurred during the procedure,while postoperative pneumatosis developed in 1 case.CT-guided PDC is a safe and highly effective low-cost procedure for the treatment of patients with UDNA who failed medical therapy,it may be considered as an alternative to open surgery.

Objective To investigate the effects of chronic ethanol exposure and withdrawal on the expression of actin-binding protein cofilin,p-cofilin and cyclin-dependent kinase-5 (cdk5) in the nucleus accumbens and striatum in rat brain.Methods Twenty-four male SD rats were randomly divided into one control group and three experimental groups.In the experimental groups,ethanol was administered in drinking water at the concentration of 6％ (V/V) for two months.Rats in control group drank normal drinking water.After two months ethanol was removed and ethanol withdrawal syndromes were evaluated.Rats were sacrificed on withdrawal 0 h,withdrawal 6 h and withdrawal 2 d.The expression levels of cofilin,p-cofilin(ser3)and cdk5 in the rat brain were measured by immunohistochemistry methods.Results Withdrawal syndrome scores of ethanol fed rats were obviously higher than those of control rats after ethanol was removed,the highest score occurred at 6 h after ethanol withdrawal.In the nucleus accumbens area of rat brain,the levels of cofilin on withdrawal 0 h significantly decreased compared with control group ((0.31±0.05),(0.39± 0.05),P＜ 0.05).The levels of cdk5 on withdrawal 0 h and withdrawal 6 h significantly increased compared with control group((0.36±0.07),(0.34±0.07),(0.25±0.05),P＜0.05).In the striatum of rat brain,the levels of cofilin on withdrawal 0 h significantly decreased compared with control group ((0.26±0.04),(0.34±0.05),P＜0.05).The levels of p-cofilin on withdrawal 6 h significantly increased compared with control group((0.43±0.06),(0.30±0.06),P＜0.01).The levels of cdk5 on withdrawal 0 h significantly increased compared with control group((0.35±0.06),(0.26±0.05),P＜0.05),and the levels of cofilin on withdrawal 6 h significantly decreased compared with control group((0.37±0.06),(0.26±0.05),P＜0.01).Conclusion Chronic ethanol exposure can induce the development of ethanol dependence,and it accompanies with changes in the expression of actin-binding protein and cdk5 in the brain of rats.

Objective To identify novel ABO allele in Chinese population. Methods The ABO blood group was tested by serological method, and then genotyped by sequence-specific primer (PCR-SSP) , gene cloning and sequence analysis. Results A healthy blood dornor who was diagnosed as having A2 subgroup and A2O1genotype was subjected to ABO gene cloning and sequence analysis. The haplotype-specific sequence analysis indicate that two single-base deletions, where G-deletion at nucleotide position 261 and A-deletion at nucleotide position 496 were determined in the O1 allele. The nucleotide sequence of the novelO1 allele were identical to ABO 0101 allele except for A-deletion at nucleotide position 496 in exon7 of ABO locus. Conclusion We defined this 0 allele as a novel O1 variant allele, and its registered number by GenBank is AY374123.
