Effects of Folate Deficiency during Pregnancy of Rats on Expression of Foliate Binding Proteins Gene and WNT Signal Transduction Pathway in Heart of Offspring / 实用儿科临床杂志

Objective To study the expressions of foliate binding protein 1(Folbp1),Wnt and ?-catenin genes on the heart of offspring during the development of embryo,whose mother was deficient of folic acid.Methods Control group involving 18 rats and study group involving 18 rats were choosen from the total 36 adult female SD rats randomly copulate with the male normal rats after feeding different fodder for 2 weeks.The heart of the 13.5,17.5 days embryos and the newborns were obtained.The expressions of Folbp1,Wnt and ?-catenin genes mRNA at the 3 periods were evaluated by RT-PCR.Results The expressions of Folbp1,Wnt and ?-catenin genes mRNA of the study group were significantly weaker than those of the control group in heart of the 13.5,17.5 days embryos and the newborns(all P

Clinical observation on effect of tongnao huoluo acupuncture therapy in treating acute cerebral infarction at ultra-early or acute stage / 中国中西医结合杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Tongnao Huoluo acupuncture (TNHLA) therapy in treating acute cerebral infarction at ultra-early stage (within 6 hrs after attack) or acute stage (within 6-48 hrs after attack).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The effect of TNHLA in the two stages was observed separately (treated group) and compared with the effect treated with immediate thrombolysis by intravenously given urokinase 12 million units in ultra-early stage or simple body acupuncture in acute stage (control group), and with those treated with intravenous dripping of normal saline (placebo group). In the meantime, all groups treated with low molecular dextran injection for 14 days, cytidine diphosphate choline and entric soluble aspirin for 28 days.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Effect of TNHLA in the treated group was insignificantly different to that after thrombolysis of the control group in the ultra-early stage, but significantly higher than that of body acupuncture in acute stage. The intracranial hemorrhage rates in the treated, control, and placebo group were 3.3%, 4.0%, and 8.0% respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>TNHLA is effective and safe in treating acute cerebral infarction at ultra-early stage or acute stage.</p>

Effects of Folate Deficiency during Pregnancy on Expression of NKx2.5 Gene in Heart of Offspring / 实用儿科临床杂志

Objective To study the expression of NKx2.5 on the heart of offspring during the development of embryo,whose mother is deficient of folic acid.Methods 1.Control group involving 18 rats and study group involving 18 rats were chosen from the total 36 adult female SD rats randomly copulate with the male normal rats after feeding different fodder for 2 weeks.The heart of the 13.5 days,17.5 days embryos and the newborns were obtained;2.the expression of NKx2.5mRNA by RT-PCR was observed;3.the expression of NKx2.5 protein by Western-blotting was investigated.Results 1.The expression of NKx2.5 mRNA of study group was weaker than control group in heart of the 13.5 days,17.5 days embryos and the newborns(P
