Objective In order to study the application of macroporous resins and so on to the purified active components of Euphorbia humifusa、Leaves of Flos Lonicerae、Chrysanthemum morifolium,adsorption and separation properties for 3 types of macroporous resins and polyamide were investigated.Methods The total flavone was used as the evaluating criteria,we selected suitable macroporous resins and studied optimum technological parameters of the adsorption and elution.Spectrophotometry was used for the determination of total flavone.Results The suitable macroporous resins which were used to the purified active components of traditional Chinese medicine were D101 and DA201 and DM301 for Euphorbia humifusa、DA201 for Leaves of Flos Lonicerae、D101 and DA201 and DM301 for Chrysanthemum morifolium,The concentration of the sample of Euphorbia humifusa for DA201 and D101 were 0.49～1.47 and 0.42～1.31 mg/ml.The concentration of the sample of Leaves of Flos Lonicerae for DA201 was 1.03～2.07 mg/ml.The concentration of the sample of Chrysanthemum morifolium for DA201 and D101 was 0.50～1.00 and 0.71～1.99 mg.ml.In the adsorption course,appeared leaking were 8 and 10、2、2 and 1 BV respectively.In the elution course,when the alcohol concentrations were 20%、30%、40% and 20%、30%、40%;10%、20%、30%;30%、40%、50% and 20%、30%、40%;respectively,the total flavone content in the elution solutions was higher.The influence of temperature to DA201 and D101 adsorpting total flavone for Euphorbia humifusa was not great.But the influence of temperature to DA201 and D101 adsorpting total flavone for Leaves of Flos Lonicerae and Chrysanthemum morifolium were certain degree.Conclusions It is obviously different to refine the total flavone active components of traditional Chinese medicine,while using 3 types of macroporous resins and polyamide.

AIM: To explore the effect of hTERT antisense phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotide (ASODN) on apoptosis induced by chemotherapeutic drugs in Jurkat cell lines. METHODS: Cell viability was determined using the trypan blue dye exclusion assay. Apoptosis was detected by morphological observation, DNA gel electrophoresis and flow cytometry analysis. RESULTS: The survival rates of Jurkat cells cultured with daunorubicin, vincristin, and etoposide, respectively were similar with that cultured with those chemotherapic drugs plus hTERT ASODN. The survival rates of Jurkat cells cultured with cis-diamminedichicloroplatinum(DDP) added 24 hours later were higher than that cultured with hTERT ASODN and DDP added 24 hours later. The survival rates of Jurkat cells cultured with DDP were similar with that cultured with hTERT SODN and DDP. In morphological observation of apoptotic cells using Giemsa staining, cells displayed classic apoptotic changes treated with DDP or DDP combined with hTERT ASODN or SODN at 48 hours. Agarose gel electrophoresis of genomic DNA from Jurkat cells treated with ASODN and DDP combination for 48 hours showed typical DNA “ladder”. Neither the DNA from Jurkat cells treated with SODN plus DDP nor the DNA from the cells treated with DDP alone showed ladder pattern. Apoptosis rates of Jurkat cells treated with DDP for 48 hours after 24 hours of exposure to ASODN significantly increased. There was significant difference in the percentage of apoptotic Jurkat cells between hTERT ASODN plus DDP and SODN plus DDP or DDP alone, respectively. CONCLUSION: The hTERT ASODN complementary to the translation initiation region of hTERT mRNA enhanced DDP-induced apoptosis in Jurkat cells.

AIM: To explore the effect of hTERT gene antisense phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotide (ASODN) on telomerase activity in Raji cells. METHODS: Polymerase chain reaction enzyme-linked immuonassay (PCR-ELISA) was used to determine telomerase activity. The expression levels of hTERT mRNA and protein were assayed by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunofluorescence using fluoresce isothiocyanate (FITC) label,respectively. RESULTS: RT-PCR and immunofluorescence assay showed that the expression levels of hTERT mRNA and protein from Raji cells decreased with time after hTERT ASODN treatment. There was no difference in hTERT mRNA and protein levels between control and SODN-treated cells. Telomerase activity decreased when Raji cells were treated with ASODN for 48 h. Telomerase activity of Raji cells was significantly inhibited when treated with ASODN for 72 h. There was no difference in telomerase activity levels between control and hTERT SODN-treated cells. CONCLUSION: hTERT ASODN could inhibit telomerase activity in Raji cells.

Objective To investigate the potential role of tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor-6(TRAF6)in the rat cerebral ischema-reperfusion injury.Methods 40 healthy adult SD rats were divided into 5 groups(n=8)according to the ran-dom control principle:sham operation group,ischemia group,reperfusion 2 h group(R2 h),reperfusion 12 h group(R12 h)and reperfusion 24 h group(R24 h).The rat cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model was constructed.The change of TRAF6 expres-sion was examined by RT-PCR and Western-blot.Then,the immunohistochemistry was adopted to locate the TRAF6 protein.Re-sults Compared with the sham group,the expression of TRAF6 in the ischemia group and the R2 h,R12 h and R 24 h groups was obviously increased,but the difference had no statistical significance (P <0.05).TRAF6 was mainly located in the cytoplasm of neuronal cells.Conclusion Activated TRAF6 is involved in the brain cell death induced by cerebral ischemia-reperfusion.

Objective To investigate the treatment of complex fractures of distal femur with open reduction and internal fixation with anatomical plate. Methods From January 2001 to June 2004, 67 cases of complex fractures of distal femur were treated with open reduction and anatomical plate internal fixation. The allogeneic bone was grafted for 23 cases, ilium was grafted for 35 cases, ilium and fibula were grafted for 9 cases. Bio- resorbable membranes were used between quadriceps femoris and femur. 13 cases were aided with patella traction. All the patients received fumigation and rinsing with Chinese herbs and CPM(continuous passive motion) after operation. Results All the 67 cases were followed up for 10 to 26 months. All the fractures got united. The postoperative knee functions were excellent in 36 cases, good in 23 cases, fair in 5 cases, and poor in 3 cases according to Kolment standards. The excellent and good rate was 88.1% . Conclusions Open reduction, internal fixation with anatomical plate, bone grafting, local use of bio- resorbable membranes, patella traction when necessary, fumigation and rinsing with Chinese herbs and CPM after operation are good measures to treat complex fractures of the distal femur, because they can provide stable fixation, allow early postoperative functional training, and prevent adhesion of quadriceps femoris and stiffness of the knee joint
