Environmental physiological method adopted, the ergonomic experiment is to seek the best parameter of the protective hood structural size, on which the structure design of the protective hood will be based, through the analysis of the organic relationship between the microenvironment of power air-purifying medical protective hood and the body's physiological characteristics. The changes of such indexes due to different air currents are analyzed as the oxygen, carbon dioxide, temperature and humidity in the microenvironment. The changes of testees' physiological parameters and their responses to psychological loads and body strengths are paid attention to. The results show the hood can meet the testees' demands with proper air current.

The bFGF plays an important role in embryonic development of tendons and ligaments and in the healing of injuried tendons and ligaments. The eukaryotic expression plasmid of rat basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) gene was constructed in order to further investigate the bFGF function in molecular regulatory mechanism in the repair of tendons and ligaments and to provide the foundation for the clinical application. The cDNA fragments of bFGF were cloned from the skin of rats by RT-PCR, and recombinated to the pMD18-T vector. The cDNA encoding bFGF was cloned from the pMD18-T vector by RT-PCR, digested with restriction enzyme EcoR I Pst I and bound to eukaryotic expression plasmid pIRES2-EGFP to construct eukaryotic expression plasmid pIRES2-EGFP-bFGF. The pIRES2-EGFP-bFGF was transfected into the tenocytes by lipid-mediated ransfection technique. MTT test was used to detect the biological activity of bFGF in supernatants after the transfection. The expression of type I and III collagen genes was detected by using RT-PCR. It was verified that the pIRES2-EGFP-bFGF was successfully constructed, and its transfection into tenocytes could significantly enhance the biological activity of bFGF, and increase the expression of type I and III collagen mRNA, suggesting that pIRES2-EGFP-mediated bFGF gene therapy was beneficial to the repair of tendons and ligaments.

Objective To observe the effects of sevoflurane pretreatment on lung metastasis of mouse Lewis lung cancer (LLC)cells.Methods Mouse LLC cells were inoculated in culture plate. After being cultured for 24 h the cells were randomly divided into four groups:group control (CC), group 1% sevoflurane (SC1),group 2% sevoflurane (SC2),and group 3% sevoflurane (SC3).Cells of group SC1-3 were exposed to 1%,2%,3% sevoflurane for 4 h respectively,cells of group CC were exposed to 95%O 2-5%CO 2 mixture air,and were then cultured for another 24 h.The invasive activity of cells was determined by Transwell assay.The migration of cells was evaluated by wound scratch assay.The expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in cells were detected by ELISA.Thirty-two C57BL/6 mice were divided into four groups (n = 8):group control (CM),group 1% sevoflurane (SM1),group 2% sevoflurane (SM2),and group 3% sevoflurane (SM3).LLC cells of group SC1-3 were injected into caudal vein of mouse in group SM1-3 respectively.Cells of group CC were injected into mouse of group CM.Lung metastasis inhibitory rates were evaluated after 3 weeks. Results Compared with group CC,the invasive activity and migration of cells in group SC1-3 were decreased significantly,group SC1 >group SC2 >group SC3 (P <0.05 );the protein expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 was significantly down-regulated with sevoflurane concentration increased,group SC1 >group SC2>group SC3 (P <0.05).Compared with group CM,lung metastasis inhibitory rates of group SM1-3 were increased significantly,group SM1 < group SM2 < group SM3 (P < 0.05 ). Conclusion Sevoflurane can inhibit the lung metastasis of mouse LLC cells,which maybe through down-regulating the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in mouse LLC cells.

Objective Using zebrafish to analyze the effect of water temperature on the recovery of spinal cord in-jury. To detect the cell proliferation and changes of gene expression at the injury site during the process of recovery. Meth-ods Surgical operation was performed to induce spinal cord injury ( SCI) on adult fish. Water at a series of temperature was applied to culture the fish. Swimming ability was adopted to observe the recovery of spinal cord injury following surger?y. Vibration sections and immunohistochemistry were performed to observe the cell number post SCI at different stages. The changes of gdnf and nos gene expression were determined by real?time PCR. Results The water temperature changes from 28℃ to 32℃ did not affect the swimming ability of non?injured and sham?injured fish ( P>0. 05 ) . The swimming ability recovered mostly in 8 weeks post spinal cord injury. At 32℃, the swimming ability recovered faster than at 28℃ or at 30℃(P<0. 05). The cell proliferation increased obviously following spinal cord injury (P<0. 05). The proliferation of cells surrounding the spinal cord in jury was more extensive in SCI fishes incubated in 32℃ water than in 28℃ or 30℃ water ( P<0. 05). Real?time PCR assay showed that gdnf was up?regulated in all groups post SCI at 24 h, and 7 and 14 days (P<0. 05). The nos expression was up?regulated in all groups following SCI in 24 h (P<0. 05) and 7 days. There was no sig?nificant difference between the SCI group and sham?injury group (P<0. 05), while after 14 days, the expression of nos was reduced in the SCI group compared with the sham?injury group (P<0. 05). Conclusions A slight increase of incu?bating water temperature can accelerate the recovery of spinal cord injury in zebrafish.

AIM:To analyse sequences of p62 dok amino acid and cDNA and to investigate p62 dok tyrosine phosphorylation and its relation with p21 ras GAP. METHODS:The purified p62 dok was extracted from CHO/IR cells. The peptide sequence of p62 dok was carried out on a high performance analyzer. PCR was performed with the primers designed from the sequence of p62 dok amino acid. Western blot and immunoprecipitation were used to identify tyrosine phosphorylation of p62 dok and the binding of p62 dok with p21 ras GAP. RESULTS:The p62 dok cDNA is a 1863 bp sequence and code 481 amino acid with 15 tyrosine residues and a putative pleckstrin homology domain. The p62 dok protein is rich in PxxP motif. The tyrosine-phosphorylated p62 dok can bind p21 ras GAP. CONCLUSION:Perhaps p62 dok is a new signaling molecule and play an important role in insulin signaling networks through RAS/MAPK pathway.

AIM: To explore the effects of selenium-enriched Spirulina platensis (Se-SP) on proliferation of hepatocytes in rat hepatectomy. METHODS: Rat hepaectomy model was conducted using male Wistar rats. The rats were randomized into five groups: operation groups with 150 (H), 50 (M) and 15 (L) mg?kg-1?d-1 of Se-SP, placebo-control (P) and sham operation group (F). Activities of glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and thioredoxin reductases (TR) in hepatocytes were determined by chemical colorimetry. The expression index of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in hepatocytes was detected by immunohistochemistry, and the level of [3H]-TDR incorporation in regenerative hepatocytes was analyzed by radio-immunity. RESULTS: Activity of GPx and TR, PCNA expression index as well as [3H]-TDR insertion in hepatocytes (in vitro) were obviously higher (P
