Objective To study the stress resistance of Rhodiola under freezing injury stress. Methods With R.kirilowii, R.crenulata, R.Algida and R.fastigiata as the experimental materials, the effects of freezing injury stress on emerging time, duration of seedling emergence, emergence rate, surviving rate, the activity of SOD and POD were observed by field test and experimental detection. Results Before seeding, the effect of freezing injury stress on R.kirilowii was the largest, and that on R.fastigiata was the least. When injury stress happened during seedling stage, surviving rate, increase of SOD and POD activities of R.kirilowii was the least, indicating the freezing injury was severe. R.fastigiata was the best in those indexes. The stress resistance of Rhodiola was as follows:R.fastigiata > R.crenulata > R.Algida > R.kirilowii. Conclusion R. fastigiata and R.crenulata are good choice in introduction and cultivation of Rhodiola in Gannan area of Gansu province, and R.fastigiata is the best.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of using ultrasound‐mediated destruction of microbubbles ( US+ MB) to enhance the transplantation of endothelial progenitor cells ( EPCs) to confer chronic allograft vasculopathy (CAV) .Methods Bone marrow derived mononuclear cells were isolated and induced in vitro . The abdominal aorta transplantation was performed . Four groups were divided:control group without treatment (group A) ,injection with saline (group B) ,injection with EPCs (group C) ,group D ( US+MB+EPCs) was injected with EPCs and US was applied to MB prior to the infusion . All rats were killed during 8 weeks after transplantation to enable histological examination;SDF‐1α expression was detected by immunohistochemistry ,the expression of SDF‐1αand TNF‐αin the grafted aortas were detected with RT‐PCR . Results When 8 weeks after EPCs transplantation ,there was a significant improvement in aortic intima of Group D compared with Group B and C ,respectively ( P <0 .05) . In addition ,treatment of Group D significantly increased the expression of SDF‐1αand reduced the expression of TNF‐αin the grafted aortas . Conclusions US‐mediated MB destruction prior to EPCs transplantation into the grafted aortas can improves the effectiveness of endothelial repair and delay the progress of CAV .

Background and purpose: Urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor is related to invasion and metastasis of tumor. Inhibition of uPAR expression in tumor cells results in reducing its metastasis. This study was aimed to construct an expression vector with short hairpin RNA (shRNA) of uPAR, which could pave the way for RNAi-mediated tongue squamous cell carcinoma therapy. Methods: Genome sequences of uPAR gene were retrieved from Genhank and cDNA was designed to code expression of shRNA for uPAR gene. The cDNA was synthesized and inserted into the eukaryotic expression vector pWH1, and the recombinant pWH1-uPAR expression vector was identified by enzyme cutting method. Then, pWH1-uPAR expression vector was transfected into tongue squamous cell carcinoma Ts cells by Lipofectomine 2000. At last, the expression of uPAR in Ts cells transfected with pWH1-uPAR expression vector was observed by RT-PCR, immunocytochemistry staining and Western blot. MTT assay was performed to measure the proliferation of Ts cell. Results: The uPAR shRNA eukaryotic expression vector was successfully constructed. Compared with Ts cells and Ts cells transfected with plasmid pWH1, the Ts cells transfected with pWHI-uPAR expression vector showed a lower mRNA and protein expression of uPAR. The inhibition rate of proliferation was 32.9% of Ts cells by transfected with pWHl- uPAR. Conclusion: The constructed uPAR shR.NA expression vector could inhibit the expression of uPAR in tongue squamous cell carcinoma, which may be helpful for further research on the function of uPAR and provide effective methods for therapy of tongue squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective To observe the anti-inflammation effect of antidromic electronic stimulation of rat dorsal roots. Methods Cross-excitation between adjacent primary afferent fibers and subcutaneous injection of 2% FM were adopted here as two inflammatory models. The firing rate and mechanical threshold of single units after cross-excitation were collected. The phosphorylated cAMP response element binding protein (p-CREB) level in spinal cord induced by formalin was visualized with immunohistology. Results Antidromic electronic stimulation (ADES) of dorsal roots could significantly inhibit the p-CREB over expression to FM injected in the contralateral hindpaw, and the increase in firing rate and mechanical threshold induced by cross-excitation were also inhibited by the ADES. Conclusion Antidromic electronic stimulation of the dorsal root may produce a systemic anti-inflamma-tion capacity.

Objective:To explore the effective diagnosis method and the clinical effect of laparoscopic technique for atypical CE1 hepatic cystic echinococcosis.Methods:The clinical data of 17 patients with atypical liver cystic echinococcosis from June 2018 to June 2019 in the People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were analyzed retrospectively, including 11 males and 6 females, (46.0±21.6) years old, all patients with a history of exposure in animal husbandry area. Preoperative hydatid immunity test, abdominal ultrasound and abdominal CT examination were completed, and laparoscopic surgery was performed. Postoperative follow-up was conducted by outpatient review and telephone, and the follow-up period was up to June 2020. The diagnosis, operation and recurrence of hydatid disease by different examination methods were analyzed.Results:Preoperative serum immunological examination of 17 patients showed that 11 were positive and 6 were negative for hepatic echinococcosis. The results of abdominal CT showed that 17 cases were hepatic cyst. Conventional color doppler ultrasound showed that 14 patients were hepatic cyst, 3 patients showed cystic space occupying, and cystic hydatidosis was not excluded; 9 patients observed double track sign or local thickening of cystic wall at the top of hepatic cystic lesions after replacement of high-frequency probe, which was diagnosed as hepatic cystic echinococcosis(CE1) , 8 patients as hepatic cyst. All 17 patients underwent laparoscopic operation, during which they were definitely diagnosed as hepatic cystic echinococcosis (CE1). During the operation, there was no conversion to laparotomy. The operation time was (125.0±54.5) min, the intraoperative blood loss was (150.0±84.5) ml without blood transfusion, and the postoperative hospital stay was (6.5±2.5) d. There were no serious complications or deaths in the perioperative period, 2 cases had microbile leakage, and recovered by themselves 5-10 days after the operation; the patients were followed up for 6-12 months, no loss of follow-up, no recurrence of liver and abdominal hydatid.Conclusions:In the process of diagnosis and treatment of liver single cystic lesions, we should pay attention to the differential diagnosis of atypical CE1 hepatic cystic echinococcosis and simple liver cyst. The effective differential rate of abdominal spiral CT, hydatid immune experiment and abdominal ultrasound is low, which is easy to be misdiagnosed and missed. The high frequency probe of abdominal ultrasound can effectively find atypical CE1 hepatic cystic echinococcosis. Laparoscopic technique is not only an effective diagnosis method but also a treatment method. It is necessary to choose a reasonable operation method according to the patient's hydatidosis. Laparoscopic operation is safe and feasible in the treatment of hepatic cystic echinococcosis.
