[Understanding and diagnosis of "Gu Cuo Feng and Jin Chu Cao].

Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that "Gu Cuo Feng and Jin Chu Cao "is the key pathogenesis for spinal degenerative disease, such as cervical spondylosis, but there is also lots of controversy for the concept of "Go Cuo Feng and Jin Chu Cao". The paper emphasizes the concept of "Cu Cuo Feng and Jin Chu Cao" from structural abnormality and dysfunction, and build the clinical standard of cervical "Gu Cuo Feng and Jin Chu Cao" from clinical symptoms, conventional physical signs of cervical spondylosis, special physical signs (mainly by palpation) and imaging measurement (special measuring method).

The data were extracted and statistically analyzed.

[Enlightenment by chiropractic's developing mode].

Traditional Chinese spinal manipulative therapy (TCSMT) and Chiropractic are similar in treating related with spinal disease, but they keep different characteristics of themselves. Although Chiropractic's "Subluxation" and TCSMT's "Jin Chu Cao and Gu Cuo Feng" theory have not be widely recognized, yet Chiropractic has already have official cooperation with WHO,and has launched "WHO Basis of Chiropractic Training and Security Guide" which would promote the project further research. Comparatively, TCSMT has mature theoretical system and satisfactory clinical effectiveness, but it's hard to global spreading formally and legally.

Genetic heterogeneity in rheumatoid arthritis mouse models induced by extrinsic and intrinsic factors.

A cumulative effect of the susceptibility genes with polymorphic alleles may be responsible for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The objective of this study was to clarify whether susceptibility to RA is under the control of common allelic loci between two different RA models induced by extrinsic and intrinsic factors, collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) in DBA/1 mice and arthritis in MRL/Mp (MRL) mice associated with the Fas deficient mutant gene, Fas(lpr), respectively. CIA was examined in mice of parental DBA/1 and MRL, (MRL x DBA/1) F1 and (MRL x DBA/1) F2 progenies.

[Diagnosis and treatment of intervertebral disc disease based on the theory of "Gucuofeng and Jinchucao"].

It has previously been reported that the incidence rate of intervertebral disc disease including cervical and lumbar vertebra is at the 8th position among the chronic and difficult treated diseases in China. There are great challenges on the improving diagnosis and treatment as well as reducing recrudescence of this degenerative disease. It was well known that the degeneration and bulge or herniatation of intervertebral discs are the main reasons for it, and the treatment for it always focuses on the disc recovery.

Mast cell hyperplasia in the skin of Dsg4-deficient hypotrichosis mice, which are long-living mutants of lupus-prone mice.

Desmosomal cadherins are essential cell adhesion molecules expressed in the epidermis. We identified a mutation of a cadherin superfamily member, namely, desmoglein 4 (Dsg4), in early onset of death (EOD)( hage ) mice with hypotrichosis. The mutation was induced by the insertion of an early transposon II-beta into intron 8 of Dsg4.

Novel recombinant congenic mouse strain developing arthritis with enthesopathy.

Based on the hypothesis that the complex pathological and immunological manifestations of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and the related diseases are under the control of multiple gene loci with allelic polymorphism, a recombinant congenic mouse strain was prepared between an MRL/Mp-lpr/lpr (MRL/lpr) strain, which develops arthritis resembling RA, and a non-arthritic strain C3H/HeJ-lpr/lpr (C3H/lpr). In MRL/lpr x (MRL/lpr x C3H/lpr) F1 mice, the mice developing severe arthritis were selected based on joint swelling to further continue intercrosses, and then an McH-lpr/lpr-RA1 (McH/lpr-RA1) strain was established and its histopathological phenotypes of joints and autoimmune traits were analyzed. Arthritis in McH/lpr-RA1 mice developed at a higher incidence by 20 weeks of age, compared with that in the MRL/lpr mice, who had severe synovitis (ankle, 60.

A non-major histocompatibility locus determines tissue specificity in the pathogenic process underlying synovial proliferation in a mouse arthropathy model.

Background: The incidence and characteristics of spontaneous ankylosis in the ankle of specific F(1) mice descended from two Fas-deficient strains were reported. Here the coincidence of synovial proliferation and ankylosis in the descendent F(2) mice is reported.

Aim: To clarify whether the two distinct manifestations are genetically different.

A signal adaptor SLAM-associated protein regulates spontaneous autoimmunity and Fas-dependent lymphoproliferation in MRL-Faslpr lupus mice.

Autoantibody production and lymphadenopathy are common features of systemic autoimmune disease. Targeted or spontaneous mutations in the mouse germline have generated many autoimmune models with these features. Importantly, the models have provided evidence for the gene function in prevention of autoimmunity, suggesting an indispensable role for the gene in normal immune response and homeostasis.

Implication of allelic polymorphism of osteopontin in the development of lupus nephritis in MRL/lpr mice.

Potentially, autoimmune diseases develop from a combination of multiple genes with allelic polymorphisms. An MRL/Mp-Fas(lpr) (/) (lpr) (MRL/lpr) strain of mice develops autoimmune diseases, including lupus nephritis, but another lpr strain, C3H/HeJ-Fas(lpr) (/) (lpr) (C3H/lpr) does not. This indicates that MRL polymorphic genes are involved in the development of the diseases.
