Histone deacetylases (HDACs) catalyze the deacetylation of histone and nonhistone proteins. They play important roles in regulating chromatin remodeling and gene transcription,and that aberrant chromatin remodeling and transcriptional dysregulation are associated with many neurodegenerative diseases. Preclinical studies have suggested that histone deacetylases inhibitors (HDACIs) can target diverse pathophysiologies of ischemic stroke,not only reduce neuronal damage and infarct volume,but also promote the neuronal plasticity and functional recovery after ischemia. This article mainly reviews the neuroprotective mechanisms of HDACIs in ischemic stroke.

Emodin is the main effective monomer of Rhubarb, which has a variety of pharmacological actions and valuable clinical applications.Recently, there are many reports about molecular mechanisms of emodin pharmacological actions,and they givehighly attention on the dephlogisticating and antineoplastic effects. These effects are achieved through affecting the concentration and transportation of ions, resisting of oxidation and free radical, and affecting the secretion of inflammatory factor and the enzyme activity and apoptosis and so on. This article summarizes the reports and hopes to provide theoretical basis for the practical application.

Objective To observe the effect of local curettage combined with ointment in fistula applying in refractory apical fistula.Methods 56 cases of patients with refractory apical fistula one month after faultless root cannal therapy divided into group A and B by lottery,with 28 cases in each group.Local curettage combined with ointment in fistula applying in group A,and no processing applying in group B.One year fellow up was given to every patient to compare the effect between the two groups.Results All the 28 cases of patients with refractory apical fistu-la were recovering in three months.The improvement rate was 100%,recovery rate 100%,and the mean time of fistula disappearing was (0.5 ±0.1)months,time of shadow around root tip disappearing (2.5 ±0.7)months.Four cases in group B were improved in three months,three cases in six months and one case in nine months,with two cases recove-ring.The improvement rate was 28.57%,recovery rate was 7.14%,and the mean time of fistula disappearing was (5.0 ±0.7)months,time of shadow around root tip disappearing (9.4 ±1.0)months.The improvement rate in group A was higher than that in group B (χ2 =33.749,P<0.05),recovery rate in group A was higher than that in group B (χ2 =49.727,P<0.05).The mean time of fistula disappearing in group A was shorter than that in group B (t=3.081,P<0.05),mean time of shadow around root tip disappearing in group A was shorter than that in group B (t=5.042,P<0.05).Conclusion It was effective to apply local curettage combined with ointment in fistula applying in refractory apical fistula,and it is worthy of clinical popularization.

Rat brain development is a complicated process.There are significant changes of histology, cytology and molecular biology in the process of fetal and postnatal brain development.The basic structure of brain has formed in the prenatal period.While the formation of connections between different parts and the improvement of the function of the brain occur after birth, during which many of the variations are bases of the nervous system diseases, so the postnatal brain development is still very important.Although the concept of brain microenvironment has been proposed more than 150 years ago, the research about the changing extracellular space ( ECS ) during the postnatal brain development has yet to gain significant progress.The author reviewed the anatomical and physiological characteristics of ECS in the process of postnatal development of the rat, stating the important role of ECS in the individual development, which is expected to provide reliable evidences for the explore of mechanisms and effective treatment approaches of pediatric development related nervous system diseases.

Objective To compare the effects of Graves thyrotoxicosis patients treated by long-term use of anti-thyroid drug ( ATD) and without long-term use of ATD ,and to explore the application value and safety of ATD be-fore 131 I treatment.Methods 62 cases with Graves hyperthyroidism were divided into the two groups according to whether received the long-term ATD treatment.The curative effects,hormone level and safety were compared.Results The success rate of ATD group was 43.75%, the success rate of without ATD treatment group was 56.67%, the difference between the two groups had statistical significance (Ridit=15.152,P=0.000).The thyroid mass,FT3, FT4 ,TSH levels after treatment between two groups had no significant differences , but the difference of the highest iodine uptake rate in 24h had significant difference (t =6.954,P<0.05).The adverse reactions in ATD treated group and ATD untreated group were 7 cases(21.88%) and 3 cases(10.00%),there was statistically significant difference between the two groups(χ2 =4.563,P=0.032).Conclusion Long-term ATD therapy before 131I treatment can reduce the highest iodine uptake rate in 24h,reduce the clinical curative effect and increase adverse reaction rate .

Objective:To detect the influence of the early Class Ⅲ orthopedic treatment on the development of the maxillary.Methods:Four adolescence rhesus monkeys were fitted with casting Twin-block magnetic appliance(TMA),two were put to death after 1.5 months and another two after 3 months,zygomaticofrontal sutures were harvested,and performed histological examination using optical and electron microscope.Another two monkeys without appliance were served as control.Results:The maxillary sutures were rebuilt,after Class Ⅲ functional orthopedic,and the zygomaticomaxillary suture,zygomaticotemporal suture and transverse palatine suture were especially active.Electron microscopy results showed that osteoblasts and fibroblasts were active,and fibroblasts showed more active effects.Conclusion:During the treatment of the Class III functional orthopedics,maxillary sutures take part in the rebuilding actively,and there are lots of new bone formation along the sutures.

Objective To investigate the effects of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) lisinopril on experimental diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in the earlier stage and its mechanism. Methods Diabetes was induced by streptozotosin (STZ) in rats. After 8 weeks of treatment, the effects of lisinopril on function and structure of peripheral nerves were observed; superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde, Na+K+-ATPase activity in sciatic nerve and NO, NO synthase levels in plasma were determined, and capillary density of sciatic nerve were also assessed. Results With lisinopril, nerve structure and function was improved, oxidative stress state was ameliorated, and NO level, Na+K+-ATPase activity and capillary density of endoneurium were increased (all P<0.05). Conclusion ACEIs are effective in DPN. The possible mechanisms may be related to the amelioration of ischemic state and related metabolic disorders of the nerves.

Objective To investigate curative effect thymoleptics with couple therapy for the patients with postpartum depression (PPD) Methods 27 patients first time diagnosed with PPD consistent with DSM-Ⅳwere randomly divided into study group and control group.The study group received regular thymoleptics with couple therapy,a control group were administered solo thymoleptics.Hamilton Depression Rating Scale(HAMD-17) and Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS-10) and OLSON marriage quality questionnaire assessed the efficacy of each group before treatment and after 12 weeks treatment.Results (1) According to the total effective rate,there was no significantly differences in two groups after 12 weeks treatment from evaluation of HAMD-17>(P0.05),but complete remission of study group was higher than control group (78.6% ,46.2% ;P<0.05).(2) After 12 weeks treatment there were significantly differences in mean scores of HAMD-17 and EPDS-10 between two groups (P<0.05).The most decreased scores of HAMD-17 and EPDS-10 was found in the study group,and mean scores of each group was lower than pretherapy(P<0.05).(3) There was no significant difference on the scores of eight factors in OLSON marriage quality questionnaire between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05).After 12 weeks treatment the study group had higher score than control in seven factors in addition to sexual life factor (P<0.05).Conclusion Thymoleptics with couple therapy can improve the marriage quality and increase curative effects outstrip solo thymoleptics for the patients with postpartum depression.
