The enzyme-inhibitor model and the sugar tolerance mouse model were used to evaluate the relationship between the inhibition rate of enzyme activity and concentration of Hippophae rhamnoides L. subsp. chinensis Rousi polysaccharide (HRP). The inhibitory patterns of enzyme and dose-dependent effects of HRP's effect on blood glucose using acarbose tablets as control were also examined. The mechanism underlying hypoglycemic effects of HRP was discussed. The results showed: in the enzyme-inhibitor model, the inhibitory activity of different concentrations of HRP (9.80, 19.60, 39.20, 78.40, 156.80 and 312.50 mg x L(-1)) on alpha-glucosaminidase (AG) inhibitory activity were 6.62%, 18.02%, 33.26%, 48.23%, 62.11%, 76.31%, 90.12%, IC50 was 31.59 mg x L(-1). The inhibitory rate of 25.00 x 10(3) mg x L(-1) acarbose tablets was only 64.87%, and IC50 was 10.75 x 10(3) mg x L(-1). In the sugar tolerance mouse model, different doses of HRP (240, 480, 960 mg x kg(-1)) tended to decrease levels of blood glucose compared with control group (acarbose tablets 375 mg x kg(-1)) at 15, 30, 60 and 120 min. It's further confirmed that HRP is a kind of competitive inhibitor of AG activity. Its inhibition rate increases with the increase of concentration in normal mice, and it subsequently improves the sugar tolerance showing the effect of reducing blood sugar.

Objective To study the effects of the monoclonal anti idiotypic antibody NP30 active immunization on egg granuloma formation and hepatic fibrosis in Schistosoma japonicum infection. Methods ICR mice were actively immunized with NP30 100 ?g ?3 ip. every 10 days while the mice in control group were injected with SP2/0 ascites ip. simultaneously. After cercariae challenging,the mice were killed at the 4th, 8th,12th, 16th, 20th and 24th week, respectively.Mouse livers were removed and stained histochemically with VG and subjected to immunohistochemical assay of collagen type Ⅰ,Ⅲ and fibronectin(FN).The volume of egg granulomas and the content of collagen type Ⅰ,Ⅲ and FN were determined quantitatively by NYD 1000 Image Analysis System. Results The volume of egg granulomas in NP30 immunized group was much smaller than that of control group from the 12th week after cercariae challenge. The cellular components of egg granulomas in NP30 immunized group were significantly different from those of the control group,exhibiting two types of atypical egg granulomas were found.VG stain revealed that the average optical density of collagen in hepatic granulomas of experimental group was lower than that of control group.Immunohistochemical assay revealed that the contents of collagen type Ⅰ,Ⅲ and fibronectin in egg granulomas of experimental group were lower than those of control group. Conclusion NP30 vaccination may induce both cellular and humoral protective immunity to modulate egg granulomas and suppress liver fibrosis of schistosomiasis japonica.

Objective To investigate the role of hybrid bone grafting using autograft and freezedried allograft bone in restoration of acetabular bone defect,as well as to evaluate the clinical results of this grafting technique combined with acetabular scaffold in dealing with massive acetabular deficiency.Methods Between April 1999 to December 2007,18 patients (19 hips) underwent acetabular revision by using a mixture of autograft and allogenic freeze-dried cancellous bone particles plus acetabular scaffold.There were 8males and 10 females,aged from 33 to 76 years (average,64.7 years).The acetabular defects were caused by aseptic loosening of primary total hip arthroplasty in 17 patients and osteoarthritis secondary to osteotomy in 1 case of acetabular dysplasia.There were 5 cases of Paprosky Ⅱ B defect,2 Paprosky Ⅱ C defect,6 Paprosky ⅢA defect and 6 Paprosky ⅢB defect.Results All patients were followed up for 3.6 to 12.3 years (average,6.5 years).Harris hip score improved from preoperative 38.7±9.6 to 87.6±7.8 at final follow-up.According to X-rays,bone incorporation evidenced by trabecular bridging of the host-donor interface was found at 3to 6 months postoperatively,and effective bone incorporation was achieved in all cases one year postoperatively.Polyethylene wear occurred in one case.Acetabular component loosening was not found at final follow up.Conclusion Impacted bone grafting using a mixture of autograft and freeze-dried allograft bone can efficiently restore acetabular bone defect.Adding autograft bone to freeze-dried allograft bone is a highly effective way of achieving graft incorporation.Hybrid bone grafting technique with acetabulum scaffold is an attractive option for the treatment of extensive acetabular deficiency.

Objective To evaluate the results and complications of hip arthroplasty performed as a salvage procedure after the failed treatment of intertrochanteric hip fractures in elderly patients. Methods Between 2004 and 2009,10 patients were treated with hip arthroplasty after the failed treatment of intertrochanteric fracture.There were six females and four males,at mean age of 75.7 years ( range,68-84 years).The initial treatment of fractures included dynamic hip screw (DHS) fixation in three cases,dynamic condyle screw (DCS) fixation in one,proximal femur fixation with reconstruction interlocking nail in three and conservative treatment without internal fixation in three.The failed procedures included avascular necrosis in four cases,cephalic implant cutting in three,nonunion in two and malunion associated with osteoarthritis in one.Joint hip replacement was performed except for pre-operative infection.Harris score at follow-up was recorded and prosthesis position was evaluated by imaging. Results Six patients were treated with total hip arthroplasty with a cemented cup (three patients) and an uncemented cup ( three patients) and four with a bipolar hemiarthroplasty.A long-stem implant was used in 5 of the 10 hips.The average duration of follow-up was 4.6 years (2-7 years).The mean duration of surgery was 128 minutes and mean blood loss was 764 ml.The mean Harris hip score increased from 37 preoperatively to 85 postoperatively.The functional results were satisfactory.One 84-year-old patient with the implant intact died 2 years postoperatively from a brain hemorrhage. Conclusions Hip arthroplasty is an effective salvage procedure after the failed treatment of intertrochanteric fractures in elderly patient.Most patients have better pain relief and functional improvements in spite of technical difficulties than primary arthroplasty.In the meantime,attention should be paid to patients with poor bone quality,bone loss,or articular cartilage damage.

Objective To study the molecular mechanism of apoptosis of cells in egg granuloma induced by anti-idiotypic antibody NP30 of Schistosoma japonicum.Methods BALB/c mice were randomly divided into two groups. The mice of the experimental group were immunized by injecting NP30 intraperitoneally for three times, while the mice of control group were injected normal saline intraperitoneally. The mice were sacrificed respectively on the 39th, 49th, 64th, 108th, 112nd day after challenge with schistosome cercariae. The expressions of apoptosis-related gene Bax, Bcl-2, death receptor Fas, FasL (Fas ligand) and c-Fos were examined by the S-P method of immunohistochemistry,and Bax, mRNA and Fas mRNA investigated by the in-situ hybridization. Results The expressions of Bax, Fas, FasL and c-Fos were positive in granuloma cells of both groups. The expressions of Bax and FasL in experimental group were higher than those in control group (P

Objective To summarize the perioperative characters of femoral neck fractures in patients aged at over 80 years by analyzing the surgical treatment procedures. Methods A retrospective study was done on data of patients with femoral neck fractures treated surgically from June 2000 and June 2008. There were 25 males and 36 females, at average age of 83.4 years (80-94 years). Of all, there were 53 patients with fresh fractures including six with type Garden Ⅰ or Ⅱ fractures and 47 with type Garden Ⅲ or Ⅳ fractures, eight with old fractures ( all type Garden Ⅳ). Fifty-one patients (84%) were accompanied with preexisted internal medical or neurological diseases. Six patients with type Garden Ⅰ or Ⅱ fractures were treated with cannulated screw fixation (CSF). Among 55 patients with type Garden Ⅲ or Ⅳ fractures inclu-ding 47 fresh fractures and 8 old ones, 53 patients were treated by hip hemiarthroplasty (HHA) but the other two by cemented total hip arthroplasty (THA) because of preexisting hip osteoarthritis. Results The average operation duration and blood loss were 51 minutes and 50 ml in CSF group, 81 minutes and 180 ml in HHA group, 105 minutes and 350 ml in THA group. Fifteen patients (25%) had postoperative com-plications, mostly hypotension, cardiac insufficiency and atrial fibrillation, accounting for 12%. Postoperative hemoglobin was decreased by 11.9%, 17.1% and 18. 1% on average respectively in CSF group, HHA group and THA group, and postoperative albumin decreased by 10.8%, 18. 1% and 20.2% on average respectively in CSF group, HHA group and THA group. There were 17 patients (28%) with hemoglobin below 100 g/L and four (7%) with albumin below 30 g/L after operation. Conclusions The patients aged ≥80 years with femoral neck fractures are usually accompanied with preexisted internal medical or neurological diseases and have high risk in operation. Adequate preoperative preparation and active prevention and treatment of perioperative complications are important for successful operation and good postoperative results.
