Objective To explore the relationships between the expression of PECAM-1 and the degree of ALI in Paraquat induced lung injury model of rabbits. Method Thirty six adult New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into three groups: 8 mg/kg (Group A), 16 mg/kg (Group B) and 32 mg/kg ( Group C) according to the dose of Paraquat which were infusion into stomach. After poisoned, the animals were monitored for seven days, and then sacrificed. The upper lobe of lung were removed for HE,Masson staining and immunohistochemisty. The ALl score, fibrosis of lung and expression of PECAM-1 were semiquantitative analyzed. Results Each group has 12 animals suffered from poisoning. The survival time of animals in Group C was (6. 47 ± 0. 99 ) days, shorter than (6. 09 + 1.04) days ( P = 0. 031 ) in Group B and (4. 77 + 2. 04) days ( P = 0. 0 07) in Group A. The ALI score were ( 8. 33 ± 1.03) points in Group A, superior to (9. 83 ± 1.17) points ( P = 0. 047 ) in Group B and ( 11.50 + 1.38) points ( P < 0. 01 ) in group C, Group B vs Group C, P=-0.03o The fibrosis degree of lung was (31.09 +2.05)% in Group A,not severe as (34. 37 ±1.62)% (P=0. 002) in Group B and (36. 54 ±0. 44)% (P <0. 01 ) in Group C, Group B vs Group C, P = 0. 026. The Pearson correlation analysis showed the expression of PECAM-1 was negative correlated to ALI score (Coe = -0. 732, P =0. 001 ) and fibrosis degree of lung (Coe = -0. 779, P < 0. 001 ) . Conclusions The expressions of PECAM-1 were significantly decreased in New Zealand after Paraquat poisoned, which were dose dependent, correlated to ALI scored and fibrosis degree of lung, so it may play an important role in the development of lung injured induced by Paraquat.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for clinical rational use and purchase of TCM decoction pieces for rheumatism. METHODS:Using Excel software,the application of TCM decoction pieces for rheumatism in our hospital during 2010-2014 was analyzed statistically in respects of drug type,consumption quantity and consumption sum,etc. RESULTS:The consumption quan-tity of TCM decoction pieces for rheumatism increased from 46 026 kg to 79 139 kg in our hospital during 2010-2014,and annual growth rate was 14.68%;consumption sum increased from 3 851 300 yuan to 6 403 800 yuan,with annual growth rate was 15.46%;consumption quantity ratio was 2.48%-2.85%. Among antirheumatic drug subtype,the quantity of drugs for antirheumatic and dissipating cold was the largest (accounting for 51.43%-58.42%),followed by drugs for antirheumatic and strengthening the bones and muscles(accounting for 23.05%-28.42%)and drugs for antirheumatic and clearing heat(accounting for 18.53%-21.08%). Top 3 TCM decoction pieces for rheumatism in the list of annual quantity were Viscum coloratum,Cynanchum paniculatum and Clematis chinensis/Chaenomeles sinensis during 2011-2014. Top 3 TCM decoction pieces for rheumatism in the list of consumption sum were Zoacys dhumnades,C. paniculatum and V. coloratum during 2011-2014. CONCLUSIONS:Both consumption quantity and consumption sum of TCM decoction pieces for rheumatism have increased year by year in our hospital,but the ratio of total quantity to total amount and medication structure keep stable,and TCM for expelling wind-damp and dispelling cold is the greatest in consumption quantity which is in line with clinical drug use characteristics. Purchasing staff can purchase drugs predictably ac-cording to the results.

AIM To investigate the effect of tamoxifen on the proliferation of the anterior pituitary cell of rats and its mechanism. METHODS Primary culture of the anterior pituitary cell of rats and 3H TdR incorporation method were applied. The changes of cell morphology were observed directly by electric microscope. RESULTS Tamoxifen could inhibit the proliferation of the anterior pituitary cell of rats. The inhibitory effect of tamoxifen (0 1 ?mol?L -1 ) could be reversed by estrogen.The classical apoptotic changes appeared in the cells after tamoxifen incubation for 48 h. CONCLUSION Tamoxifen can inhibit the proliferation of the anterior pituitary cell of rats and resultin the cell apoptosis.

BACKGROUND: Hydroxyapatite/β-tricalcium phosphate biphasic ceramic bone has good cel compatibility, but its mechanical properties are poor. OBJECTIVE: To construct chitosan/ or calcium alginate/biphasic ceramic bone scaffolds and to detect their mechanical properties and cytocompatibility. METHODS: Different concentrations of chitosan (2%, 4%, 7%, 10%) or calcium alginate (3%, 4%, 5%, 7%) were mixed with biphasic ceramic bone to prepare chitosan/biphasic ceramic bone scaffold and calcium alginate/biphasic ceramic bone scaffold. Their morphology and structure, coagulation time, anti-dissolution properties, shear force, compressive strength and cel compatibility were detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Coagulation time: with the concentration increase, the initial and final setting time of these two kinds of composite scaffolds were prolonged to some extent. (2) Scanning electron microscopy: these two kinds of composite scaffolds showed porous microstructures with different pore sizes. (3) Anti-dissolution properties: the calcium alginate/biphasic ceramic bone scaffold (3%, 4%, 5%, 7%) and chitosan/biphasic ceramic bone scaffold (7%, 10%) had good anti-dissolution properties in the liquid. (4) Mechanical strength: with the concentration increase, the shear force and compressive strength of the calcium alginate/biphasic ceramic bone scaffold were reduced. (5) Cel compatibility: the cytotoxicity of chitosan/ or calcium alginate/biphasic ceramic bone scaffolds was graded as 0-1 or 2-3, respectively. These results show that the chitosan/biphasic ceramic bone scaffold has better mechanical properties and cel compatibility than the calcium alginate/biphasic ceramic bone scaffold.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of acupuncture combined with back Shu acupoint catgut embedding therapy in treating allergic rhinitis. Methods Totally 66 allergic rhinitis patients were included. Random number table method was used to divide the 66 patients into observation group and control group, with 33 cases in each group. The control group was given Ketotifen Fumarate Nasal Drops nose drops 2 drops each time, 3 times a day, Loratadine Tablets 10 mg orally, once a day for 4 weeks. The experimental group was treated with acupuncture, once a day, 10 d as a treatment course, three courses in total; at the same time, back Shu acupoint catgut embedding therapy was given, 15 d each time, twice treatment in total. After the end of treatment, clinical efficacy, clinical symptom score, life quality score, serum levels of inflammatory factors, serum immunoglobulin, peripheral blood eosinophil count and the incidence of adverse reactionsof the two groups were observed. Results The total effective rate was 93.94% (31/33) in observation group and 75.76% (25/33) in the control group, with statistical significance in the two groups (P<0.05). Compared with before treatment, the TNSS score, TNNSS score and RQLQ score of the two groups were significantly lower than after treatment (P<0.05); the IgE and EOS levels significantly decreased (P<0.05); the serum IL-17 and IL-22 levels were significantly lower (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the TNSS, TNNSS and RQLQ score and the levels of IgE, EOS, IL-17 and IL-22 in the treatment group were lower after treatment (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Acupuncture combined with catgut embedding therapy in the treatment of allergic rhinitis has a significant clinical efficacy, which can improve the level of inflammatory factors in patients with high safety.
