1.Soluble protein analysis of three ordinary species of cockroaches in Anhui province
Acta Universitatis Medicinalis Anhui 2001;(2):114-116
Objective To examine the soluble protein patterns of three ordinary species of cockroaches in Anhui province by SDS-PAGE technique, and to find the method of scientific classification for cockroaches. Methods The soluble protein liquid was made by the way of freezing and melting homogenate. SDS-PAGE was carried out in the liquid. After using Coomassie brilliant blue G250, the molecular weight of all of protein strips were measured and calculated by standard curve. Results The numbers of female and male of Periplaneta fuliginosa were 31 strips and 29 strips; the numbers of female and male of Periplaneta Americana were 30 strips and 28strips; the numbers of female and male of Blattella germarica were 28 strips and 25 strips. The number and location of protein bands were different among these species. It was also obvious that the positions of the main protein bands in Blattella germarica were different from those in two Periplaneta species, and the positions of the main protein bands in female insect were different from those in male insect. Conclusion SDS-PAGE can be used as one of classification methods for cockroaches.

3.Shape-memory intratubal contraceptive material versus other intratubal contraceptive materials:Characteristics analysis
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2013;(47):8263-8268
BACKGROUND:Intratubal contraceptive devices are simple and effective, which can cause less interference on female reproductive function and endocrine balance.
OBJECTIVE:To explain the advantages and adverse effects of shape-memory intratubal contraceptive material and other intratubal contraceptive materials.
METHODS:A computer-based search of Wanfang, CNKI and PubMed was performed to search related articles concerning shape-memory intratubal contraceptive material and other intratubal contraceptive materials published from 1996 to 2013.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The main intratubal contraceptive materials include memory metal biomaterials, non-degradable polymer biomaterials, and degradable polymer biomaterials. After implantation, the memory-shape intratubal contraceptive device plays a stimulating role in the tubal epithelium for a short time, but the effect on the mucosal epithelial layer of the fal opian tube is transient. With the increasing time of implantation, inflammatory reactions of the tubal epithelium relieve gradual y with repair of vil i on the tubal wal , indicating there is a reproductive tissue basis of fal opian tube recanalization. Polyethylene materials are characterized as high impact resistance, abrasion resistance, excellent stability to chemical drugs, water absorption, electric insulation, and bioinert, which are used as stent materials of almost al the intrauterine devices. Silicone is characterized as heat resistance, cold resistance, non-toxicity, resistance to biological aging, chemical stability, physical inertia, physical and mechanical properties, and silicone, after implantation into human body, cannot cause foreign body reaction. Polylactic acid has good chemical inertness, biocompatibility and ease of processing, and may be stil present in the body after 5 years of implantation.

Objective To evaluate the changes in the expression of DJ-1 protein during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in diabetic rats.Methods Fifty male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 220-280 g,were used in this study.Type 1 diabetes mellitus was induced by intraperitoneal streptozotocin 65 mg/kg and confirmed by fasting blood glucose > 16.7 mmol/L.Forty animals with type 1 diabetes mellitus were randomly divided into 3 groups:diabetes group (group D,n =10),diabetic sham operation group (group DS,n =15) and diabetic I/R group (group DIR,n =15).Another 10 non-diabetic rats in which citrate buffer 6 ml/kg was injected intraperitoneally were served as control group (group C).Myocardial I/R was produced by occlusion of the anterior descending branch of left coronary artery for 30 min followed by 120 min reperfusion in group I/R.At 120 min of reperfusion,5 rats were sacrificed and myocardial specimens were c(on)tained for determination of infarct size in groups DS and DIR,and 10 rats were sacrificed and myocardial specimens were obtained for microscopic examination and for determination of cell apoptosis,malondialdehyde (MDA) content,superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and expression of DJ-1 and phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) protein.Apoptotic index (AI) was calculated.Linear correlation between the expression of DJ-1 protein and MDA content,SOD activity,AI and expression of PTEN protein was analyzed.Results Compared with group DS,the myocardial infract size was significantly increased in group DIR (P < 0.05).Compared with group C,MDA content and AI were significantly increased,SOD activity was decreased,the expression of DJ-1 was down-regulated,and the expression of PTEN protein was up-regulated in groups D,DS and DIR (P < 0.05).Compared with groups D and DS,MDA content and AI were significantly increased,SOD activity was decreased,the expression of DJ-1 was down-regulated,and the expression of PTEN protein was up-regulated in group DIR (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in the parameters mentioned above between groups D and DS (P > 0.05).There was linear correlation between the expression of DJ-1 protein and MDA content,SOD activity,AI and expression of PTEN protein and the correlation coefficients (r) were-0.734,0.593,-0.818,and-0.812 in turn.Conclusion Down-regulation of DJ-1 protein expression is involved in myocardial I/R injury in diabetic rats via decreasing anti-oxidative stress responses and upregulating PTEN protein expression.

Objective To observe the change of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) an d glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in neonatal rats' cerebral cortex with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD). Methods The 7 day- old SD rats were subjected to the ligation of right carotid artery, then were pu t into a hypoxic box to establish a HIBD model. The immunohistochemical method w as used to detect the expression of NSE and GFAP in rats' cerebral cortex. Results ① The NSE decreased in damaged cerebral cortex in HIBD 24 h group, after 7 days it gradually increased but was still lower than that of the controls. ② The expression of GFAP was limited and scarce in control and it did not change in HIBD 24 h group, while in HIBD 7 d group GFAP expression was increased and spread widely in the damaged cerebral cortex. Conclu sion ① The NSE decreases in damaged cerebral cortex in early stage of neonatal rat HIBD, suggesting that NSE is a specific marker for neuron damage . ② The GFAP increases in damaged cerebral cortex in the recovery stage of neon atal rat HIBD, suggesting that GFAP participates the repair of lesion region.

I sopropylmine vanillinate (IV) given iv 5 , 10 mg/kg in anesthe tized rats produced a dose-dependent decrease in mean arterial pressure and a concomitant decrease in heart rate.In pithed rats IV was unable to shift the phenylephrine doserespon-se curve to the right, but prazosine caused 53-fold shift.No direct effect of vasodilation was shown by IV on rabbit aorta strips .The concentration-response curve of isoprenaline in isolated rat right atrium was competitively inhibited by IV and propranolol. pA2 value was 4.0 for IV and 8.2 for propranolol. In addition, 'IV depressed contractility & heart rate of isolated rat atria.These results suggest that the hypotensive action of IV may be related to the decrease of HR, inhibition of contractility and slight blocking of B-adrenergic receptor. However the mechanism underlying the hypotensive effect of IV is to be further studied.
