Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Xiaoying Ruanjian Decoction on experimental autoimmune thyroiditis (EAT) from the levels of autoantibodies, interleukin-1, tumor necrosis factor-? and apoptosis-regulated proteins Fas/Fasl of EAT rats, and investigate the mechanism from the relation between cytokines and apoptosis-regulated proteins. Methods Sixty SD female rats of SPF level were divided into normal group and model group. An animal model of EAT in rats was developed by injecting thyroglobulin mixed with Freund’s adjuvant immunization and drinking periodate water. The rats modeled were divided into Chinese medicine group, western medicine group and model group. The levels of autoantibodies, interleukin-1, tumor necrosis factor-? were detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The level change of Fas/Fasl in the thyroid of rat was observed with immunohistochemical staining. Results Ruanjian Xiaoying Decoction significantly reduced the levels of autoantibody, interleukin-1, tumor necrosis factor-? and lowered the expression of Fas and Fasl in thyroid cells. Conclusion Ruanjian Xiaoying Decoction alleviates the levels of apoptosis-regulated proteins Fas/Fasl by decreasing the relative expression of antibodies and cytokines in serum levels, which plays a role in reducing apoptosis of thyroid cells.

Objective To study the association of methylation status of C5 of the cytosine in the CpG di-nucleotide of caspase-8 promoter and expression of caspase-8 mRNA with the resistance to tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand(TRAIL) in human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines,and to evaluate the effect of demethylation agent 5-Aza-2′-deoxycytidine(5-Aza-CdR) on the resistance to TRAIL of human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines.Methods Methylation status of caspase-8 promoter was measured with methylation-specific PCR method(MSP).Expression of caspase-8 mRNA was detected with RT-PCR.Apoptosis induced by TRAIL was observed by Acridine Orange/Ethidium Bromide(AO/EB) staining.Results Unmethylated status of caspase-8 promoter was found in both HepG2 and SMMC 7721 hepatocellular carcinoma cells.5-Aza-CdR neither up-regulated caspase-8 mRNA expression nor increased the sensitivity of hepatocellular carcinoma cells to TRAIL.Conclusion caspase-8 promoter methylation status and caspase-8 mRNA expression are not related to the resistance to TRAIL.5-Aza-CdR can not increase the sensitivity of hepatocellular carcinoma cells to TRAIL.

Objective:To observe the anatomic characteristics of supratubal recess and the morphological change of it in the sick ear. To investigate the relation between the morphological changes of supratubal recess and otitis media.Method:Using high resolution CT to observe and measure the supratubal recess of the normal ears and the ailing ones.Result:For the normal adults, the anteroposterior diameter of the supratubal recess is(3.83±1.28)mm,the vertical diameter(3.67±1.14)mm,the height(3.76±0.36)mm;and the length of the cog is(2.84±0.38)mm.The size of the supratubal recess showed no significant difference between left and right(P＞0.05).There was no relationship between the size of the supratubal recess and pneumatization of mastoid cells (P＞0.05).There was significant differences in size of the supratubal recess between normal ears and the ears with cholesteatoma(P＜0.05),but there was no relationship between the size of the supratubal recess and pneumatization of mastoid cells(P＞0.05)in the ears with cholesteatoma.There was no significant differences in size of the supratubal recess between normal ears and the ears with chronic otitis media(P＞0.05).In the ears with cholesteatoma,40% had osseous destruction in supratubal recess.Conclusion:For the normal adults, the size of the supratubal recess showed no significant difference between left and right, and there was no relationship between the size of the supratubal recess and pneumatization of mastoid cells. Anterior tympanic isthmus , posterior tympanic isthmus and supratubal recess which is the supplement of the formers constitute the air way between attic and mesotympanum. The supratubal recess of the cholesteatoma is smaller than the normal, when the eustachian tube dysfunction occurs, the air way in the middle ear would herein be affected, and cholesteatoma forms eventually. There was no significant differences in size of the supratubal recess between normal ears and ears with chronic oti-tis media, as in the clinic.The effect of the supratubal recess should be taken into account when we consider the pathogeny and treatment of the middle ear cholesteatoma.

Objective To investigate the expression changes of aquaporin-1 (AQP1) and aquaporin-9 (AQP9) in rats after traumatic brain injury, and explore the roles of AQP1 and AQP9 in the development of brain edema.Methods In an impact-acceleration head injury model of rat, brain water content was measured by wet-dry weight method at 1 h, 6 h, 24 h, 48 h and 168 h after brain trauma. The expressions of AQP1 and AQP9 in brains were investigated by immunohistochemistry and Western blot.Results Brain water content increased in the injuried brain tissues after 1 h post-injury, reached peak at 24 h and returned at 168 h. Both expressions of AQP1 and AQP9 were induced in reactive astrocytes adjacent to injury sit at 6 h and 24 h after brain trauma. Staining of AQP1 in the endothelial cells was not present in normal rat brains but appeared strong after brain trauma.Conclusion A remarkable induction expression of AQP1 or AQP9 after brain trauma may participate in the development of brain edema.
