Methods： A total of 180 mice were divided into three groups： model group, treatment group and control group. The treatment and model groups were intraperitoneally injected with gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue for 7 days; pregnant mare serum gonadotropin was also injected on the 7th day. After 48 h, human chorionic gonadotropin was injected. The control group was injected with an equal volume of saline at the same time. From the start of the experiment, the treatment group was intragastrically administered Jinghouzengzhi Recipe （经后增殖方） and Cuhuangti Recipe （促黄体方）. The model group and the control group were intragastrically administered an equal volume of saline. Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of integrin α υ β 3 in mouse endometrium. Results： Integrin α υ β 3 was expressed in mouse endometrium in all groups. Integrin α υ β 3 expression increased gradually along with pregnancy, progressing from pregnant day （Pd） 1. Integrin α υ β 3 expression significantly increased on Pd 4, then began to decrease on Pd 6. Integrin α υ β 3 expression in the treatment group was higher than in the model group, and the difference was statistically significant （P〈0.05）. The difference between the treatment group and the control group was not statistically significant （P〉0.05）. Conclusion： YBR improves endometrial receptivity, and may play an important role in embryonic implantation.展开更多

The active inductor circuit uses the PMOS cascode structure as the negative transconductor of a gyrator to reduce the noise voltage. Also, this structure provides possible negative resistance to reduce the inductor loss with wide inductive bandwidth and high resonance frequency. The RF band pass filter is realized using the proposed active inductor with suitable input and output buffer stages. The tuning of the center frequency for multiband operation is achieved through the controllable current source. The designed active inductor and RF band pass filter are simulated in 180 nm and 45 nm CMOS process using the Synopsys HSPICE simulation tool and their performances are compared. The parameters, such as resonance frequency, tuning capability, noise and power dissipation, are analyzed for these CMOS technologies and discussed. The design of a third order band pass filter using an active inductor is also presented.展开更多
