Objective To explore the expression of Bcl-2 and calretinin(CR)in enteric ganglion cells in different developmental conditions and its significance.Methods The immunohistochemical staining was carried out to detect the expression of Bcl-2 and CR in enteric ganglion cells at different intestinal segments from tissue samples of 40 hirschsprung disease(HD) cases(age,26 d to 12 years old),10 Hirschsprung's allied disease(HAD) cases and 10 normal controls.Results In immature ganglion cells,there was a strong expression of Bcl-2,and no positive to or poor expression of CR.In mature ganglion cells,there was a strong expression of CR but no positive Bcl-2 staining.Conclusion The specific expression of Bcl-2 and CR may play an essential role in judging if the ganglion cells are mature.Bcl-2 might be of importance in the maintenance and restore of the fuction of enteric immature ganglion cells.

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.

Objective To study the role of Schwann cells apoptosis in the pathogenesis of experimental autoimmune neuritis(EAN) in TNF receptor Ⅰ knock out(TNFR Ⅰ-/-)mice.Methods For induction of EAN,TNFRⅠ-/- and wild type C57BL/6 mice were immunized by subcutaneous injection into the back with the peripheral nerve P0 protein peptide 180-199;clinical scores of EAN were assessed and scored immediately before immunization(day 0) and thereafter every other day until day 46 post immunization(p.i.).On day 22 p.i.,Schwann cells were collected from the two groups and cultivated in vitro.The expressions of Fas and Annexin-Ⅴ(Annexin-Ⅴ+/PI-)on Schwann cells from TNFRⅠ-/-and wild type EAN were detected by flow cytometry.Results More light clinical signs of EAN were observed in the TNFRⅠ-/-mice(1.50?0.19) than in wild type mice(1.90?0.16);the percentage of Fas expression on Schwann cells was significantly decreased in TNFRⅠ-/-mice(88.03%?1.40%)as compared with wild type mice(94.70%?1.53%)(P

Objective To study the current situation of diagnosis and treatment of rudimentary uterine horn pregnancy through 4-cases report. Methods We made a clinical study of 4 cases of rudimentary uterine horn pregnancy admitted to our hospital between 1995 and 2005. Results Three patients had been undergone artificial abortion before they were admitted to our hospital. All the patients were asymptomatic. Ultrasonography was made in 3 cases. Two cases were diagnosed as rudimentary uterine horn pregnancy. Three patients were cured with surgery. Conclusions Rudimentary uterine horn pregnancy is rare and with atypical clinical manifestation in the first trimester. Although diagnosis before surgery is difficult, ultrasonography and MRI make a great role. Surgery is the most important therapeutic method.

To test whether Con A has antirejection effect on mouse islet allograft, 600-700 handpicked islets of C57BL/6 mice was transplanted beneath the kidney capsule of the streptozotocin induced diabetic BALB/C recipients. In control group the mean survival time (MST) of the grafts was 14.1?2.4 days. Treatment with Con A significantly prolong the MST of the islet allografts. In group with Con A treatment of the donor islets prior to the transplantation the MST was 25?5.4 days. The MST increased sigificantly after ip injection of Con A to recipient mice. The combined treatment of islet and recipient with Con A resulted in a prolongation of MST to 25.2?4.4 days. The experiments concerning the mechanisms of the antirejection effect of Con A showed that Con A was able to combine with the islet cell membrane well masking perhaps the histocmpatibility antigen. Furthermore the lymphocytes of mice after i. p Con A injection suppressed the lymphocyte proliferation reaction of the svnergic mice to mitogen.

Objective To investigate the influence of rosuvastatin on inflammatory factors and immune func-tion in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)with pulmonary heart disease.Methods 80 COPD patients with pulmonary heart disease were randomly divided into two groups,40 cases in each group.The control group was treated with conventional medicine comprehensive treatment,the observation group was given rosuvastatin based on the control group.The inflammatory cytokines (TNF -α,IL -1 and hs -CRP)changes,immunoglobulin IgM,IgG and IgA changes situation,and heart,lung function changes related indicators were compared between the two groups before and after the treatment.Results After treatment,the TNF -α,IL -1 and hs CRP levels of the observation group were significantly lower than those before treatment(t =145.5,35.35,57.5,all P <0.05)and those of the control group(t =160.75,11.45,32.99,all P <0.05).After treatment,the IgM,IgG and IgA levels of the observa-tion group were significantly lower than those before treatment (t =4.89 of 18.29,3.42,all P <0.05)and those of the control group (t =2.55 9.67,2.342,all P <0.05 ).After treatment,the FEV1 ,FEV1 /FVC and LVEF of the observation group were significantly higher than those before treatment(t =40.44 33.64,33.79,all P <0.05),while the PAP level was significantly lower than that before treatment (t =24.12,P <0.05),and the FEV1 ,FEV1 /FVC and LVEF of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group after treatment(t =16.30, 15.82,18.72,all P <0.05),while the PAP level was significantly lower than that of the control group after treatment (t =13.43,P <0.05).Conclusion Combined rosuvastatin therapy for COPD patients with pulmonary heart disease can effectively reduce body inflammatory response,improve immune function and myocardial contractility,so it can promote functional recovery of heart and lung in patients.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To study the effect of rapamycin ( Rap) on the proliferation, invasion, adhesion, apoptosis and autophagy of human adenocarcinoma A549 and resistant A549/DDP cells treated with cis-diamminedichloroplatinum ( DDP) .METHODS: Human adenocarcinoma A549 and resistant A549/DDP cell lines were cultured.The inhibitory effects of Rap alone or combined with DDP on A549 and resistant A549/DDP cells were detected by MTT assay.The in vitro invasion abilities of the 2 cell lines treated with Rap alone or combined with DDP were detected by Transwell methods. The in vitro adhesion abilities of the 2 cell lines treated with Rap alone or combined with DDP were detected by adhesion experiments.The apoptosis of A549 and resistant A549/DDP cells induced by Rap alone or combined with DDP was ana-lyzed by flow cytometry.The cell autophagy marker proteins beclin-1 and LC3 in A549 and resistant A549/DDP cells trea-ted with Rap alone or combined with DDP were detected by Western blotting.RESULTS:Compared with Rap or DDP a-lone group, the combination of Rap and DDP significantly inhibited the proliferation, invasion and adhesion of A549 and resistant A549/DDP cells in vitro, and promoted the cell apoptosis and autophagy marker proteins beclin-1 and LC3 expres-sion ( all P<0.05) .CONCLUSION:Rap enhances the effect of DDP through promoting the cell autophagy, thereby in-hibiting the proliferation, invasion and adhesion of A549 and resistant A549/DDP cells and inducing the cell apoptosis with a synergistic effect.

Laboratory animal industry forms an independent, comprehensive system responsible for the production, use and management of laboratory animals.Great advances have been made in this field in China over the more than thirty years of development.However, due to the great development and changes during this long time, there are also some issues which need to be amended and changed.To compare the concepts of experimental animals in China and developed countries such as USA.The key concepts on the laboratory animals are not well or clearly defined in the regulatory documents in China, which hinder the healthy development and effective regulation in this field, as well as the care and use of laboratory animals in research and education.In this article, we discuss the necessity of timely amendment and standardization of the key concepts and definitions related to laboratory animals, and the importance and impact of the key concepts on the development of animal industry in China.
