The NH2-PAMAM G2.0-Au nanocomposites, with a type of structure in which one Au nanoparticle is surrounded by several NH2-PAMAM G2.0 dendrimers, emit strong bluish violet fluorescence, and are uniform, water soluble and biocompatible as well as very stable in frozen conditions. The size of gold nanoparticles in the nanocomposites is about 2.5 nm and decreases with the increase of NH2-PAMAM G2.0 concentration. The NH2-PAMAM G2.0 plays an important role in acting as host or micro-reactor for Au(Ⅲ) before Au(Ⅲ) reduction and acting as dispersant and stabilizer for gold nanoparticles after Au(Ⅲ) reduction. Preliminary experiments of cells staining to human embryonic lung fibroblast cell lines show that the NH2-PAMAM G2.0-Au nanocomposites can be used as optical imaging markers for bioanalyses and medical diagnoses.展开更多

In the fetal liver, megakaryocytes were wholly located among growing fetal liver cells and near foci of hemopoiesis. Some megakaryocytes in the fetal liver were small7890- lymphoid-like megakaryocytes. The size of megakaryocytes both in the fetal liver (14.79 ± 4.52μm) and in the fetal bone marrow (16.08±7.39 μm) was small, which did not vary significantly over the gestation age ranging from 3 to 6 or 7 months. However, the maturation stage of megakaryocytes in the fetal liver shifted to more mature stage with the advancement of gestation, although the maturation stage of megakaryocytes in the fetal bone marrow did not change with the advancement of gestation from 4 to 7 months, the megakaryocyte in the fetal bone marrow was less mature展开更多

Tg,T<sub>4</sub> and T<sub>3</sub> showed a almost similar localization and immunohistochemical staining pattern: diffuse staining of follicular lumen (L), granular staining of follicular border(G), and foamy staining of follicular border (F). The significant differences between the thyrotropinstimulated and non-stimulated groups were observed. The peripheral vacuoles of colloid were increased (P【0.05) in the former. Dominant staining patterns were G and F in the former. This simple organ culture system is a useful model for studying the functional aspects such as hormone biosynthesis in thyroid gland.展开更多

Total 120 chickens were randomly assigned into three groups. The 1% and the 0.5% of the Chinese medicine immunopromoter were added to the chicken drinking water, respectively. The quantity of T lymphocytes in each group was measured by a-Naphthyl acetate esterase (ANAE) staining. The results showed that the percentages of T lymphocytes of the treatment groups were significantly higher than that of the control group (P〈0.05), and the percentage of the 1% group significantly higher than that of the 0.5% group (P〈0.05). In conclusion, the transformation rates of T lymphocytes showed that the Chinese medicine immunopromoter had the significant enhancing effect on the transformation rates of T lymphocytes of the treated chickens. The traditional Chinese medicine immunopromoter had the distinct function to promote the quantity and the transformation rate of T lymphocytes.展开更多

According to the equivalent method derived from sand drain foundation subjected to plane and axisymmetric conditions, the three dimensional problem was transformed into plane strain problem. The modified Komala-Huang model was used to model the rheological behavior and the damage theory was also introduced to consider the effect of damage caused by construction disturbance. Numerical simulations were carried out for a high way test section. The results show that simulations of the viscoelastic-plastic-damage model are in good agreement with the field measurements. It suggests that the calculation method, simplified load and boundary condition used in this study are reasonable.展开更多

The sections were stained with H.E., PAS-ab and Keratin, and compared with sections of 131 cases of lung cancer being confirmed beforehand from 1978~1984. Chinese cases showed epidermoid carcinoma 165 (male 146), adenocarcinoma 136(male 82), small cell carcinoma 29 (male 21), large cell carcinoma 19 (male 15) and the others 29 (male 27); Japanese cases were 59(50), 53(25), 3 (2), 11(10), 3(0) respectively. The cases under 40 years of age were 23(6.1%) in China, 3(2.3%)in Japan. Both of them have similar character of histology. But the incidence of lung cancer in youth is higher in China.展开更多
