The production of high-quality oocytes requires precisely orchestrated intercellular communication. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are cell-derived nanoparticles that play a vital role in the transfer of bioactive molecules, which has gained much attention in the field of diagnosis and treatment. Over the past ten years, the participation of EVs in the reproductive processes of oocytes has been broadly studied and has shown great potential for elucidating the intricacies of female reproductive health. This review provides an extensive discussion of the influence of EVs on oocytes, emphasizing their involvement in normal physiology and altered cargo under pathological conditions. In addition, the positive impact of therapeutic EVs on oocyte quality and their role in alleviating ovarian pathological conditions are summarized.

Objective:To carry out all aspects of medical equipment quality control work, solid implementation of medical equipment quality control testing, accurately grasp the quality evaluation of controlled medical equipment, improve the quality of medical equipment and security application.Methods: From the grasp of the controlled object information, careful planning, coordinating the implementation of a variety of ways to carry out the control, medical equipment quality control.Results: The controlled medical equipment to ensure a reliable detection rate reached 100%, the application of medical equipment quality.Conclusion: Overall quality control of medical equipment can effectively solve the practical difficulties, to avoid detection of controlled equipment, the full implementation of the quality control of medical equipment.

OBJECTIVETo establish the method for determining muscone in rat intestinal perfusate by GC-MS/MS and study its intestinal absorption kinetic characteristics in rats.

METHODThe GC-MS/MS method was used to determine the content of muscone in rat intestinal circulation fluid. In situ intestinal circulation perfusion was adopted to study absorption kinetics of muscone in rats.

RESULTMuscone was proved to be well absorbed in each section of small intestine. Its absorption rate constants (Ka) and the absorption rate (A) in the rat intestine showed duodenum > jejunum (P < 0.05) , duodenum > ileum (P < 0.01). Its Ka, A and t1/2 in rat small intestine was 0.990 h(-1) , 43.58% and 0.705h, respectively.

CONCLUSIONMuscone was well absorbed in each intestinal section, with duodenum better than jejunum (Ka, T1/2, P < 0.05) significantly better than ileum (Ka, T1/2, P < 0.01; A, P < 0.05). There is no obvious statistical difference between jejunum and ileum.

BACKGROUND: The essential component of Plumbago zeylanica Linn is plumbagin, which plays a role in anti-leukemia, antibiosis, antifertility, as well as cardiovascular. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Plumbago zeylanica Linn on the healing process of experimental rabbit fracture. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Randomized control experiment of animal was performed at the Department of Pharmacology, Guilin Medical College between December 2006 and February 2007. MATERIALS: Eight New Zealand rabbits, 80 to 85-day-old, weighing 2.1-2.5 kg, half male and half female. METHODS: Eight rabbits were randomly divided into the control and experimental groups, with 4 animals in each group. Under sterile conditions, the experimental bone fracture model of rabbit was created by making a longitudinal incision in the medial of the middle portion of right foreleg, cutting off a point-foot radius with bone clamp, and suturing the incision. The rabbits in the experimental group were treated externally with the extraction of Plumbago zeylanica Linn in 50% of ethanol, twice a day for 15 days. The sodium chloride was administrated into rabbits in the control group. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The serum alkaline phosphatase (S-ALP), Ca2+, P3+, K+, Na+, Cl-, liberation and total calcium of the rabbit were measured at 15 and 30 days after drug administration, X-ray of the bones were performed at the fracture healing. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the fracture healing of the experimental group was faster, and the serum examinations showed that the serum Ca2+ levels of the experimental group was significantly increased by Plumbago zeylanica Linn, there had significantly differences between prior to and after drug administration (P

It was found that the proliferation of mice L7712 leukemic cells in vitro was markedly inhibited by 5 mg/L GP1 and VP10 The inhib itory rate increased with the incubation time. At a concentration of 0 .04-20mg/L, the mitotic index ( MI ) of GP1 group increased, but the MI of VP16 group decreased. After L7712 cells were treated with GP, 5 mg/L for 12 h the MI reached the highest point which was 8 times as high as that of the control, at the same time, the MI of VP16 ( 5 mg/L) group was about one-third of that of the control. The result of the combination of GP1 with VP16 showed that VP16 could antagonize the effect of GP on MI of L7712 cells. After being treated by GP1 and VP18 for 24 h, serious damage of L7712 cells could be observed. Both drugs inhibited the incorporation of (3H) TdR into DNA of S180, ascitic hepatoma (AH), L1210 and L7712 cells incubated for 24 h. It was further observed that S180 and L7712 cells were more sensitive than other cells to both drugs.
