Objective To ohaerve the behavior of PD rat models treated with different dosages of levodopa and analyze the relation- ship between levodopa - induced dyskinesia (LID) and dosage of levedopa. Method The successful PD rat models were set up by 6-OHDA injection into right MFB. Two groups were divided according to the different treatment dosages of levodopa, which were given through perito- neal injection twice a day for 21days. One group was given for 10 mg/kg body weight, the other for 50 mg/ kg body weight. The score of AIM and rotational behavior were observed. Results Among altogether 28 female SD rats, 22 were chosen as the successful PD models and the successful rate arrived at 78. 57%. LID could be induced in both groups, but there were great differences in occurrence and duration time of AIM, AIM score, pharmacodynamic action time, and rotational behavior between these two groups( P<0.05). Conclusions The be- havior of LID has great relationship with the given dosage of levodopa.

Objective To evaluate the effect of hepatocyte growth factor(HGF) on transvascular metastasis of sarcoma cells.Methods The models of intravascular and extravascular migration of tumor cells in vitro were used to observe transvascular metastasis of sarcoma cells(HT1080).Results HT1080 migrated through basement membrane into blood vessels,and migrated through a gap between adjacent endothelial cells into extracellular matrix.The greater number of transmigrated HT1080 treated with HGF was observed(P

AIM: To evaluate the effect of tissue factor on intravascular migration of tumor cells.METHODS: Expression of tissue factor in tumor cells (HT1080) was analyzed by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence staining. An in vitro model was used to observe intravascular migration of tumor cells. RESULTS: High expression of tissue factor was observed in tumor cells (HT1080). The antibody for tissue factor inhibited intravascular migration of tumor cells. CONCLUSION: Tissue factor stimulated tumor metastasis through promoting intravascular migration of tumor 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.

Objective To explore the iodine status of pregnant women after 17 years of salt iodization in rural areas of Shijiazhuang City.Methods Probability proportionate to size sampling was employed in which 30 towns were selected from the 211 towns in the rural areas of Shijiazhuang City.In each town selected,40 pregnant women were randomly selected to collect their spot urine samples,edible salt samples and drinking water samples from their households to measure iodine content.The iodine content of salt was determined quantitatively using a titration method (GB/F 13025.7-2012).The urinary iodine content was determined using the method of ammonium persulfate digestion arsenic cerium catalytic spectrophotometry (WS/T 107-2006).The iodine content in drinking water was determined by the method of standard test for drinking water.Results A total of 1 200 salt samples was collected from the pregnant women's households in 30 towns,with the overall median iodine content being 27.2 mg/kg.The median salt iodine content in 30 towns varied from 23.4 to 32.6 mg/kg.A total of 478 water samples were collected,with a median of 5.3 μg/L.The median urinary iodine content (UIC) of 1 200 pregnant women in 30 towns was 146.4 μg/L.The median UIC in the first (≤ 13 weeks),second (14 ～ 26 weeks) and third (≥27 weeks) trimesters was 166.3,145.1 and 133.5 μg/L,respectively.The median UIC in the first trimester was significantly higher than that in the third trimester (Mann-Whitney Test,U =18 265,P ＜ 0.05).Except for the 9-20 and 37-40 weeks period of pregnancy,the median UIC was lower than the WHO criteria (150 μg/L).Tested by linear correlation,the pregnant women's median UIC did not correlate with median salt iodine (r =0.725,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Under the current universal salt iodization,the pregnant women's iodine intake could almost meet their requirement in the rural areas of Shijiazhuang City,however,mild iodine deficiency has existed in the third trimester.Alternative measures of iodine supplement could be implemented.

Objective To explore the immunomodulatory mechanism of 2-(-2-benzofuranyl )-2-imidazoline(2-BFI) in rat model of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE).Methods Fifty fe-male Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into five groups by random digit table , including con-trol group(n=10), EAE model group(n=10), low dose 2-BFI group(1.5 mg/kg, n=10), median dose 2-BFI group (3 mg/kg, n=10) and high dose 2-BFI group (6 mg/kg, n=10).The SD rat model of EAE was induced by immunizing with a guinea pigs′spinal cord homogenate ( GPSCH ) .The severity of EAE was scored according to the signs and symptoms .Pathological changes were observed through Hematoxylin-eosin staining, and then the degrees of inflammatory infiltration were evaluated .The number of activated neuroglia that expressed GFAP and iba 1 in lumbar cords was counted by immunohistochemistry .The expressions of IL-1β, IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-10 in cervical cords were measured by ELISA .Results Compared with EAE group, rats in the low, median and high dose 2-BFI treatment group had lower incidence of EAE , prolonged latency and decreased CNS inflammation , but only the median dose group showed significant alleviation in clinical symptoms and decrease in CNS inflammatory cell infiltration (P<0.05).Immunohistochemical re-sults showed that the numbers of activated microglia were significantly inhibited ,but the numbers of activated astroglia were increased in the rats treated with median dose of 2-BFI in comparison with the EAE group ( P<0.05).Results of ELISA demonstrated that expressions of IL-1βand IFN-γin 3 mg/kg 2-BFI treated group were significantly decreased compared with that in the EAE group (P<0.05), but expressions of IL-4 and IL-10 were remarkably increased(P<0.05).Conclusion 2-BFI at median dose of 3 mg/kg has a benefi-cial neuroprotective effect on rats with EAE , and its mechanism might be related to immunodulation .

Objective:To explore effects of Idazoxan(IDA) on changes of neuroglial cells in spinal cords of rats with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis(EAE).Methods:Rat EAE was induced by immunization with spinal cord homogenates of Geania pigs.EAE clinical manifestations were assessed in terms of the scoring standards.Histological investigation and immunohistochemistry were observed for the inflammatory dedmylinative lesion of CNS and morphology of glial cells.Results:Ida could not decrease the incidence of EAE,but alleviate its clinical manifestation and histological changes.On day 15 after immunization,astrocytes in and around the inflammatory dedmylinative lesion of CNS in EAE rats treated with Ida increased in number and size,on the contrary,microglia decreased in number and size.Conclusion:Ida has protective effects on EAE and its functional mechanism may be concerned with modulation of immunological mechanism of CNS.

OBJECTIVE: To provide information for clinical rational and safe use of albendazole.METHODS: The medical database and network both at home and abroad were searched and the data regarding the research and development,the market information and indications of albendazole were analyzed.RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS: 5 dosage forms of albendazole are available in the market: tablets,capsules,granules,oral liquid,and syrup.The sales amount of albendazole in recent years dominated the first 3 places in domestic antiparasites market.There are a total of 39 domestic manufactures for albendazole,which can be used to treat 21 kinds of human parasitosis.Its clinical application is widespread.However,severe adverse drug reactions such as the rare encephalitis syndrome and allergic shock etc induced by albendazole pose hidden risks for treatment;therefore,management on its use should be strengthened.

AIM: To evaluate the effect of endothelial Rho and Rho kinase in extravasation migration of sarcoma cell. METHODS: We used an in vitro model of sarcoma cell transmigration across a monolayer of HUVEC cultured on collagen gel to observe extravasation migration of sarcoma cells and calculated the electrical resistance of HUVEC monolayer in extravasation migration of sarcoma cells. RESULTS: Sarcoma cells migrated through endothelial cells into collagen gel, the electrical resistance of a HUVEC monolayer reduced in extravasation migration of sarcoma cells.Endothelial Rho inhibitor(C3 transferase) and Rho kinase inhibitor(Y-27632) inhibited extravasation migration of sarcoma cells and inhibited reduction of electrical resistance of a HUVEC monolayer in extravasation migration of sarcoma cells. CONCLUSION: Endothelial Rho and Rho kinase regulates sarcoma cell transendothelial migration through modification of endothelial cytoskeleton.
