Conclusion The serum 25‐(OH) D level of RA patients is significantly low ,which might be associated with the RA disease activi‐ty .

Objective Delivery of oxygen in tissues is limited in the space where oxygen must diffuse between the vascular and the surrounding tissues. Normal capillaries are relatively straight and well spaced, in contrast, the tumor vascular networks usually display more irregularity and the vessel wall shows higher permeability and less elasticity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of capillary elasticity and tortuosity on the oxygen distribution and make further investigation on the mechanism of the formation of hypoxic regions in tumor. Method One-dimensional capillary model was coupled with the oxygen diffusion model. Oxygen transport was investigated in a Krogh and tortuous tissue model. The capillarygeometrywas obtained bythe one-dimensional model and transferred to the tissue model. Finite element method was employed in the analysis. Result The capillary radii along the flow direction under pressures were obtained for different initial radii and the oxygen distribution in the Krogh cylinder tissue model and the model with a tortuous capillary were computed. Conclusions when the capillary radius is small, the effect of vessel elasticity may have not significant effect on the oxygen distribution. However, with the capillary radius increasing, the effect on the oxygen transport becomes obvious. Moreover, with the tortuosity of the capillary increasing, the oxygen distribution becomes more heterogeneous, which is in agreement with the result in available reference. This work will be helpful to the investigation of oxygen transport within tumor.

To investigate the effects of ligustrazine injection on type I collagen, matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) expressions in human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs) cultured in high glucose conditions.

Recent developments on separation and analysis of bacterial cells by capillary electrophoresis are reviewed. Based on bacterial surface characterization, capillary electrophoresis technique can be utilized for rapidly identify and quantify intact bacteria and microbes at a certain phase. The microbe-molecule interactions can also be described. The separation of microbes that can not be cultured in lab appears to be possible by this method. It makes profound effects on separation science and microbiology to establish capillary electrophoresis procedure for the separation and analysis of bacterial cells.

The vessels of the skin flap in the fronto-parieto-temporal region were studied by way of injecting 10% ethyl acetate dye into the artery of 25 Chinese adult cadavers.The main arterial supply in this region is the superficial temporal artery. In addition,the posterior auricular,supraorbital and supratrochtear arteries distribute over this region as well.The superficial temporal artery is the largest scalp artery.The area distributed by this artery amounts to 57.38?6.05% of the whole scalp.The frontal and parietal branches are the terminal branches of the superficial temporal artery.The former is a constant branch in our cases.It is a dominant vessel of which both the distributing area and the caliber are larger than the parietal branch.The superficial temporal vein is mainly formed by the union of a frontal and a parietal venous branches,which approximately accompany the corresponding branches of the artery. The arteries in the fronto-parieto-temporal region form rich anastomoses at the median area of the vertex.The large anastomoses channels were counted in this study.These channels have anatomically provided for the designing of a supe(?)long flap which run across the median zone.The forehead flap with the frontal branch as the pedicle artery and the scalp flap with the parietal branch as the pedicle artery were discussed.

0.25mg/ml of Achyranthes bidentata Saponins( ABS ) in De Jalon's solution usually caused an obvious excitant action in both virgin and pregnant uterine preparations. The uterine excitation was blocked effectively by prior treatment of the preparations with 20?g/ml of indomethacin for 1 h.In the isolated uterine preparations taken from the rats treated with indomethacin, 15 mg/rat orally twice a day for 2 and a half days, the excitant action of ABS was obviously reduced.Treatment of the uterine segments with 0.5?g/ml of chlorpromazine for half an hour also blocked the excitant response. However, treatment of the uterine preparations with 10?g/ml of atropine for 10 min had no abvious effect on the excitant response. The probable mecha-nism of action of ABS was discussed.

Objective To investigate the effects of Ligustrazine on TNF-α-induced TGF-β and CTGF expression in human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs). Methods HPMCs were isolated from human omenta by trypsin di-gestion. Then, the subcultured HPMCs were divided into control group, TNF-α-induced (1 μg/L) group and TNF-α-induced plus low-, medium-and high-dose Ligustrazine (10, 20 and 40 mg/L Ligustrazine respectively) groups. The viability of HPMCs was measured by MTT assay. RT-PCR was used to detect the expressions of TGF-β1 and CTGF mRNAs in HPMCs. TGF-β1 and CTGF in supernatants were measured by ELISA. Cell protein concentration was measured by trace bicinchoninic acid (BCA) method to validate the ELISA assay results. Results Ligustrazine significantly decreases TNF-α-induced TGF-β1 and CTGF expression in a dose-dependent manner at both protein and gene levels ( P < 0. 05 ). In addition, medium-and high-dose Ligustrazine injection significantly ameliorates the viability of HPMCs inhibited by TNF-α ( P < 0. 05 ). Conclusion Ligustrazine inhibits expressions of TGF-β and CTGF of HPMCs in an inflammatory conditions.

In this work, some interference in the assay of vitamin E in liver and serum was studied and the method was improved.The sample must be protected from oxidative attack. The interference of high vitamin A content in liver could be removed by H2SO4. The amount of KOH for saponification must be in keeping with the amount of sample assayed both in synthetic a-tocopherol and in biological material by fluorometry. A linear correlation of the fluorescence and the vitamin E content was obtained when 0.5ml of 10 N KOH was used for the saponification of 0.5-100?g of ?-tocopheryl acetate.
