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 .

OBJECTIVE:To observe the protective effect of total flavone of Abelmoschl Manihot L medic(TFA)on acute myocardial ischemic and anoxic injury in mice.METHODS:Acute myocardial ischemic model induced by subcutaneous injection of Isoproterenol was adopted to observe the effects of TFA on the abnormal ST segment in lead II and T wave on ECG,my?ocardial water content(MWC)and myocardial index(MI);Moreover the effect of TFA on myocardial anoxic tolerance was ob?served in trachea clamping mice.RESULTS:TFA could remarkably ameliorate the abnormal changes of ECG and significantly inhibit the increase of MWC and MI of model group.It was found that the ECG lasting time was much longer in the groups pretreated with TFA.CONCLUSION:TFA plays a protective role in myocardial ischemia and anoxic injury in mice.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a HPLC method for determining the content of tinidazole in Yintal cleaning solu?tion.METHODS:Nova-Pak C 18 column was used.The mobile phase was methanol-water-glacial acetic acid(22∶78∶0.1). Internal standard was metronidazole.The UV detection wavelength was310nm.RESULTS:There was a good linerarity within the concentration range of20～100?g/ml of tinidazole in Yintai solution(r=0.9999).The average recovery was101.2%(n=5,RSD=1.16%).CONCLUSION:This method is simple,fast and accurate.

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.
