All this produces profound negative psychosocial implications for affected people, their families, and their communities;the financial costs can be challenging for their families and health institutions. Treatments aimed at restoring the spinal cord after spinal cord injury, which have been tested in animal models or clinical trials, generally seek to counteract one or more of the secondary mechanisms of injury to limit the extent of the initial damage. Most published works on structural/functional restoration in acute and chronic spinal cord injury stages use a single type of treatment: a drug or trophic factor, transplant of a cell type, and implantation of a biomaterial. Despite the significant benefits reported in animal models, when translating these successful therapeutic strategies to humans, the result in clinical trials has been considered of little relevance because the improvement, when present, is usually insufficient. Until now, most studies designed to promote neuroprotection or regeneration at different stages after spinal cord injury have used single treatments. Considering the occurrence of various secondary mechanisms of injury in the acute and sub-acute phases of spinal cord injury, it is reasonable to speculate that more than one therapeutic agent could be required to promote structural and functional restoration of the damaged spinal cord. Treatments that combine several therapeutic agents, targeting different mechanisms of injury, which, when used as a single therapy, have shown some benefits, allow us to assume that they will have synergistic beneficial effects. Thus, this narrative review article aims to summarize current trends in the use of strategies that combine therapeutic agents administered simultaneously or sequentially, seeking structural and functional restoration of the injured spinal cord.展开更多

Several important agronomic traits of these rice varieties or combinations were also measured. The results revealed that treated by high temper- ature (38 ℃) at flowering stage, the seed setting rate (70.4%), percentage of dehis- cent anthers (75.5%), and pollen number per floret (78) of R1056 were close to those of N22, which is tolerant to high temperature, and significantly higher than those of the rice varieties sensitive to high temperature. The seed setting rate, per- centage of dehiscent anthers, and pollen number per floret of the hybrid combina- tions generated from R1056 were smaller than those of R1056, but higher than those of the rice varieties sensitive to high temperature. R1056 had excellent agro- nomic traits, and good combining ability, and its hybrid combinations had low plant height, numerous panicles and high yield, suggesting that R1056 is not only an ex- cellent rice variety with tolerance to high temperature, but also an excellent restorer in three-line hybrid rice breeding.展开更多

However, fertility-restor- ing (Rf) gene only exists in radish chromosome and is closely linked with glucosino- late gene, making it hardly to be applied directly in production. Thus, the key to apply Ogu CMS in Brassica napus is to introduce the Rf genes and to break its linkage with glucosinolate gene. [Me^od] To overcome the interspecific reproductive barrier, grafting was conducted by using Raphanobrassica (2n=-58) as donor materi- als of Rf genes. The obtained interspecific hybrids were analyzed from the agronom- ic traits, seed-setting rate and fertility restoration rate for screening fertility-restoring materials. [Results] By elaborative selection, a homozygous Ogu CMS fertility-restor- ing B. napus material named CLR650 was selected out, whose somatic chromosome numbers were found to be 2n=38-40. Some abnormal phenomena like anaphase bridges and lagging chromosomes in meiosis were observed, but the abnormalities did not affect the formation of normal pollens. It can restore the male fertility in both progenies of self-pollination and testcross by 100%. Molecular analysis showed that CLR650 harbors Ogu CMS fertility-restoring gene, which is obviously different from that of Ogu CMS restore line Rl13 and RHH1 by detecting the molecular markers closely linked with radish restorer gene (Rf0). [Conclusion] The CLR650 could be a new restorer for the Ogu CMS in B. napus.展开更多

Several results were obtain from this experiment and they were listed as follow:① MS cultrure medium with such hormones as 2,4-D 2 mg/L,6-BA 0.5 mg/L, NAA 0.5 mg/L was the best suitable for callus induction of NER. ②The difference of induction rate was significantly different between different plant age groups. From the 110th day to 141th day,the induction rate was increased with the increase of age and the difference of induction rate reached 0.01 significant difference level. The induction rate reached the highest value in the 141th day then it declined gradually. ③The combined use of 2, 4-D and 6-BA with proper increase of 2,4-D was good for inducing callus. ④The green plantlet induction rate of NER was increased when the concentration of 6-BA increased from 2 mg/L to 4 mg/L. Adding ZT from 0.5 mg/L to 2 mg/L. 6-BA would led 2.47% increase of green plantlet olantlet induction rate.展开更多
