Objective:The characteristics and changes of the three-dimensional micro structure of human placenta in Early-onset severe preeclampsia (EOSP) were quantified, and the relationship of morphologic features and the poor fetal prognosis was explored. Methods:10 patients were recruited in EOSP group, 10 normal blood pressure premature pregnancy were as control group. Ultrathin sections were observed by elec-tron microscope. The Vv,Sv,Nv of plancenta were measured by stereology method. These parameters were compared between the two groups. Results:①In EOSP group, the miorovillus at the bottom of syncytial was sparse and swollen. The mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum were swollen and dilated. The deposition of lipid granules were increased.②The Vv, Sv of mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum in EOSP group were significant augmented than control groups( P<0.01 ). There was no significant difference of Nv in mitochon-drion and endoplasmic reticulum between two groups ( P >0.05). ③The Vv,Sv, Nv of microvilli in EOSP group were smaller than those in control group ( P < 0.01 ). Conclusions. In EOSP, the microstructure of placenta is impaired, thus the synthesis and transportation function of placenta were affected, so fetus could be injured subsequently.

Objective To observe the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), its tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase (TIMP-1), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and contents of nitric oxide (NO) in the ocular tissues of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats with endotoxin induced uveitis(EIU). Methods Ninety SD rats were randomly divided into experimental (81 rats) and control group (9 rats). The model of EIU was induced in rats in experimental group by injecting with lipoplysaccharide (LPS) 200 ?l into the hind feet pads, while the rats in the control group were not injected. Nine rats were executed 0, 6, 12, 18, 24, 48, 72, 96 hours and 7 days, respectively, after injecting with LPS; the NO content and concentration of protein in the aqueous humor in blood plasma, aqueous humor, and uveal tissues were detected. The expressions of MMP-9, TIMP-1 and iNOS in the ocular tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry, and the average absorbance (A) value was evaluated by computer medical image analysis system. Results iNOS, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 expressed in the epithelial cells of iris and ciliary body and exudated inflammatory cells of rats. The concentration of protein in the aqueous humor, the contents of NO in blood plasma, aqueous humor, and uveal tissues, and A value of MMP-9 had obvious relativity with the inflammatory extent, while no positive correlation was found between the inflammatory extent and the A value of iNOS and TIMP-1. Expression of iNOS was found 6 hours after injection, reached the peak after 12 hours, and then dropped gradually. The expression of TIMP-1 could be seen 24 hours after injection, and reached its peak after 72 hours. Conclusion The content of NO and expressions of iNOS, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 changes from the beginning and during the development of EIU, which suggests that NO, iNOS, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 are involved in the pathologic process of EIU.

Objective To compare and analyze the differences and characteristics of three strain mouse models in-fected by influenza virus aerosol inhalation, and provide the reference for choosing the appropriate infection model in the re-search of pathogenesis of influenza and the development of vaccines and drugs.Method C57BL/6, BALB/c and ICR mice were infected with A/Puerto Rico/8/34 (H1N1) virus strain by aerosol inhalation.The symptoms and body weight of mice were observed every day.At 3, 7, 14 days after infection, the mice were sacrificed.The lungs of mice were weighed, then virus assay and pathological observation were carried out.Results The three strains of mice were infected.The sur-vival rate in the C57BL/6 mice was lower than those in the BALB/c and ICR mice.The lung index and viral load of C57BL/6 mice were significantly higher than those of ICR mice ( P<0.05) at 3 days after infection.The pathological changes of C57BL/6 mice were also more obvious than other two strains.Compared with other two mouse strains, the weight recovery of BALB/c mice was the slowest.The survival rate in BALB/c mice was higher than that of C57BL/6 mice and lower than that of ICR mice.The lung index and viral load were not significantly different among the three strains of in-fected mice.The pathological changes among the three strains of infected mice were similar, but the degrees of pathological changes in the BALB/c mice were milder than in the C57BL/6 mice and worse than in the ICR mice.Compared with other two mouse strains, the process of disease is similar, but the body weight, mortality, lung index, viral load, and the micro-scopic pathological changes were lighter in the ICR mice than in the other two strain mice.Conclusions The three strain mouse models can be established by influenza virus aerosol inhalation, but showing different characteristics.Appropriate strain mice can be chosen to build model according to different research purpose in the experiment.

BACKGROUND:Sufentanil exerts protective effects on tissues, but its roles in the repair of nervous system injury and the underlying mechanism are stil unknown.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the protective effect of sufentanil preconditioning in the repair of spinal cord injuries and the underlying mechanism.
METHODS:Mouse models of spinal cord injuries were prepared through clipping spinal cord fol owed by intraperitoneal injection of 3 and 6μg/kg sufentanil, respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUISON:(1) Western blotting, ELISA and TUNEL assays showed that 6μg/kg sufentanil significantly down-regulated the protein expression levels of TLR4, nuclear factor-κBp65, cleaved-caspase 3, tumor necrosis factor-αand interlenkin-1βin the spinal cord of mice (P<0.05);at the same time, the number of apoptotic neurons was significantly decreased (P<0.05). (2) Furthermore, high-dose sufentanil preconditioning significantly ameliorated the recovery of limb function at 14 days after injury (P<0.05). (3) These results administrate that the neuroprotection provided by 6μg/kg sufentanil preconditioning for spinal cord injuries in mice maybe related to the TLR4/nuclear factor-κB signaling pathway inactivation.

OBJECTIVEThis aimed to investigate the effect of specific sequence oligodeoxynucleotide MT01 on the biological properties of osteoblasts invaded by Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis ) by evaluating proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis.

METHODSMG63 osteoblasts were recovered and incubated with MT01, CpG ODN, metronidazole (MNZ), and gentamicin (GEN) for 3 h. P. gingivalis (the multiplicity of infection was 100:1) was added subsequently and cocultured for another 24 and 48 h. Cells with PBS comprised the blank group, whereas cells with P. gingivalis comprised the negative controls. Six experimental groups were established: PBS group, P. gingivalis group, MT01+P. gingivalis group, CpG ODN+ P. gingivalis group, MNZ+P. gingivalis group, and GEN+P. gingivalis group. The proliferative ability was measured by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium assay, and the percentages of apoptosis and cell cycle were examined by flow cytometry.

RESULTSCompared with the blank group, proliferation increased significantly in the MT01+P. gingivalis group (P < 0.05). The ratio of cells was lower at the G₁ phase and higher at the S phase in the MT01+P. gingivalis group compared with the results in the P. gingivalis group (P < 0.05). Early cell apoptosis in the MT01+P. gingivalis group was significantly lower than that in the P. gingivalis group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONMT01 can promote the proliferation, reduce the ratio of the G₁phase, increase the ratio of the S phase, and inhibit the early apoptosis of osteoblasts invaded by P. gingivalis.
