Poria cocos, which refers to the dry sclerotium of Poria cocos (Schw.) Wolf, is used as a traditional Chi-nese medicine (TCM). This review summarized the chemical constituents of P. cocos, their bioactivity and the extrac-tion technology of polysaccharides and triterpenes in order to provide in-depth study on the development and appli-cation of P. c oc os .

Objective To investigate the feasibility,operation design and postoperative rehabilitation in ankylosing spondylitis patients with bilateral hips and knees bony ankylosis,who were operated on the 4 joints during one hospitalization period. Method Two operations were performed in one hospitalization period in three ankylosing spondylitis patients on the 2 hip joints and 2 knee joints respectively.One case,the left hip replacement was operated in the first operation,and the right hip and the double knees were operated in the second operation;the other two cases,unilateral hip and knee were operated in two operations respectively.Patients began to contract their lower limbs’ muscles initiatively after narcosis.The limbs were put on the CPM,the hips and knees were bent and extended repeatedly on the third day after operations.The patients began to leave bed and learned to walk 2 weeks after operations.They could walk 100 steps with aids when they leaft hospital. Result In six-month follow-up,the range of hip motion(degree)were 105?~145?(average 135?);the range of knee motion(degree)was 45?~60?(average 54?).The hip’ function score adopted Harris score system:the average of 83 and were all good;the knee’ function score adopted American Association of Knee Surgery score system in 1989:all were excellent except a good one(left knee of first case,the score was 74/75). Conclusion Performing operations on the 2 bony ankylosis hips and 2 bony ankylosis knees in the ankylosing spondylitis patients in one hospitalization period can shorten the treatment cycle,release the distress,and lighten the economic load,meanwhile it is convenient for operation and postoperative rehabilitation.It is better to do the unilateral hip and knee in a single operation.

To investigate the distribution of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotypes among the population of Dai nationality in Xishuangbanna, Yurman Province HBV genotypes of the Serum samples were tested by PCR-RFLP. This is the first time to discover the B+E genotypes in China. This finding provides new information for understanding the distribution of HBV genotype in China and a provides a basis for establishing a Chinese gene bank.

Objective To evaluate effect of bone grafting combining with titanium mesh and/or reinforcement cup in reconstruction of acetabular bone defect in total hip arthroplasty (THA).Methods From January 2008 to November 2011,32 patients,including 23 males and 9 females,aged from 51 to 76 years (average,66 years),underwent THA with acetabular defect reconstruction by using bone grafting combining with titanium mesh and/or reinforcement cup.There were 6 cases of primary THA and 26 cases of revision THA.Twelve cases (Paprosky Ⅱ B) and 7 cases (Paprosky Ⅱ C) underwent impaction bone grafting with titanium mesh; 6 cases (Paprosky Ⅱ C) underwent impaction bone grafting with reinforcement cup; 6 cases (Paprosky Ⅲ A) underwent impaction bone grafting and structural bone grafting with winged reinforcement cup; 1 case (Paprosky Ⅲ A) underwent double-layer impaction bone grafting with titanium mesh and reinforcement cup.Harris score and Gill classification were used to evaluate clinical and radiological results,respectively.Results All cases (32 hips) were followed up for an average of 22 months (range,12 to 25months).One year postoperatively,Harris score improved from preoperative 44.00±11.71 to postoperative 78.41 ±9.32.Twenty-four cases were excellent,4 good,4 fair,and the excellent and good rate was 87.5％.Three cases occurred mild displacement of acetabular rotation center; one case occurred dislocation.There was no loosing,subsidence,and bone resorption in other 28 cases at final follow-up.ConcLusion Bone grafting with titanium mesh and/or reinforcement cup is effective in reconstruction of acetabular bone defect in THA,which can improve the stability of acetabular cup.

Cap1p, encoded by CAP1, is a basic region-leucine zipper (bZip) transcription factor in Candida albicans. It has been proven to play important roles in both drug resistance and oxidative stress. Within the AP-1 family, Cap1p belongs to the same subgroup which also includes Yap1p, Yap2p, and Pap1p. The function of Cap1p is regulated by a nuclear localization mechanism. In recent years, some target genes of Cap1p have been discovered and the differences as well as similarities between Cap1p and Yap1p have been revealed. However, the role of Cap1p in the drug resistance of Candida albicans still needs to be further investigated. Currently drug resistance and oxidative stress are the 2 focuses in the research of fungal pathogens, making Cap1p very important in the future study. The authors have been involved in Cap1p research for a long time and this review introduces the current progress in the area.

The incidence of candidiasis caused by Candida albicans has increased dramatically in recent years. With the widespread use of antifungal agents, the emergence of drug resistant strains pose a major challenge to drug treatment. The overexpression of membrane proteins functioning as drug efflux pumps is one of the main mechanisms for multidrug resistance of Candida albicans. Membrane transporters associated with drug resistance in Candida albicans are reviewed in this article.

Objective To evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine on the cellular immune function of the rats with scald.Methods Seventy-two healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 200-220 g,aged 120-150 days,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =24 each):normal control group (group C),scald group (group S) and dexmedetomidine group (group D).Thirty percent of the total body surface was shaved and then exposed to 94 ℃ water for 12 s in S and D groups.The rats were resuscitated according to Parkland formula after scald in S and D groups,and in addition,dexmedetomidine 30 μg/kg was also intraperitoneally injected immediately after scald in D group.Before the model was established (T1) and at 12 and 24 h after scald (T2,3),blood samples from the inferior vena cava were collected for determination of T lymphocyte subsets CD3 +,CD4 + and CD8 +,NK cell,C-reactive protein (CRP),interleukin-6 (IL-6),IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) level.CD4+/CD8+ was calculated.Arterial blood samples were collected for blood gas analysis.Results Compared with C,the CD3+,CD4+ and NK cell levels,CD4+/CD8+,pH value,PaCO2 and PaO2 were significantly decreased,and CD8+ levels,IL-6,IL-10,TNF-α,CRP and BE negative value were increased at T2,3 in S and D groups.Compared with group S,the CD3+,CD4+,NK cell and IL-10 levels,CD4+/CD8+,pH value,PaCO2 and PaO2 were significantly increased,and CD8+ levels,IL-6,TNF-α,CRP and BE negative value were decreased at T2,3 in group D.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can improve the cellular immune function of the rats with scald.

Objective: To study the mechanism of chitosan i n inhibiting the proliferation of rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells(SMCs). Methods: By means of c-myc probe labelled with random primers and Northern blot hybridization, we examined the effect of chitosan on vascu lar SMC c- myc mRNA expression, which was stimulated by newborn bull serum (NB S,20%). Results: The oncogene c-myc mRNA expression incerased in cultured vascular SMC 24 h after NBS exposure. These effects were inhibite d by chitosan (20 μg/ml). Conclusion: Chitosan might inhibit the expression of vascular SMC c-myc mRNA stimulated by NBS, through which the proliferation of vascular SMC are inhibited.
