Objective:To research the effects of HH singaling pathway on proliferation,apoptosis and CyclinD1 expression of breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells by MDA-MB-231 cells treated with Cyclopamine,a HH singaling pathway inhibitor.Methods:MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with Cyclopamine.Cell proliferation was detected by MTT;Cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were analysed by flow cytometry(FCM).The mRNA levels of GLI1,CyclinD1 were measured by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR);The protein level of CyclinD1 was detected by immunostaining of cell lines.Results:Compared with control group,Cyclopamine could significantly inhibit the proliferation of MDA-MB-231 cells in a dose-and time-dependent manner;By FCM the treatment of MDA-MB-231 cells with Cyclopamine induced a remarkable increase in the proportion of cells in the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle and after 48 h the sub-G1 peak appeared.The mRNA levels of GLI1,CyclinD1 and the expression of CyclinD1 protein were reduced.Conclusion:The HH signaling pathway was activeted in MDA-MB-231 cells.HH signaling pathway inhibitor,Cyclopamine,could inhibit the proliferation,induce the apoptosis and reduce the expression of CyclinD1 in MDA-MB-231 cells.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) on wound healing of perianal absceess after operation.Methods 80 patients who received operation of perianal absceess were selected.The patients were randomly divided into the study group(n=40) and control group(n=40).All the patients underwent the treatment of anal abscess incision and drainage.The patients in the control group were disinfected routinely and treated by metronidazole,while the patients in the study group were treated by rhEGF after disinfection of saline.All patients were followed up for one month after surgery.The wound edema score,granulation growth and the healing time of the wound were recorded.Results One month after surgery,the wound edema score in the study group was less than that in the control group at any time.After 2 weeks and 4 weeks,the wound edema scores in the study group were (1.41±0.33)points,(0.54±0.11)points,which were significantly lower than (2.09±0.28)points,(1.37±0.16)points in the control group (t=9.937,27.036,all P<0.001).After 2 weeks and 4 weeks,the granulation growth scores in the study group were (1.71±0.38)points,(0.81±0.16)points,which were significantly lower than(2.16±0.38)points,(1.66±0.21)points in the control group (t=5.296,20.363,P<0.001).The healing time of the wound in the study group was (19.52±1.47)d,which was less than (25.49±1.75)d in the control group (t=16.521,P<0.05).Conclusion The rhEGF can distinctly promote wound healing and shorten the healing time of perianal absceess after operation,which is worthy of the clinical promotion.

Objective To investigate the histological detection and pleural effusion Mycobacterium tuberculosis and adenosine deaminase(ADA) activity assay value of tuberculous pleurisy.Methods 30 patients with tuberculous pleurisy were chosen as the research object,and selected another non-tuberculous pleurisy caused by pleural effusion in 30 patients as controls,patients received pleural puncture,take detect pleural effusion and pleural biopsy.Results A biopsy to confirm the diagnosis of tuberculous pleurisy in 18 cases,compared to 60.0 percent.Six cases of patients with pleural tissue biopsy again,a ratio of 20.0％.Pleural histopathology diagnosis was 80.0％.Patients with tuberculous pleurisy pleural effusion ADA average activity was (71.3 ± 16.2),which was significantly higher than that of the control [(19.3 ± 10.8)] (t =23.42,P ＜ 0.05).ADA-positive patients with tuberculous pleurisy was 86.7％,which was significantly higher than 3.3％ of the confrol group (x2 =14.64,P ＜ 0.05).Patients with tuberculous pleurisy pleural effusion TB-PCR positive rate was 6 6.7 ％,significantly higher than the 2 0.0 ％ (x2 =8.6 5,P ＜0.05).Application and histopathological examination of pleural effusion TB-PCR and ADA joint detection,diagnosis of tuberculous pleurisy was 100.0％,significantly higher than that of various methods alone(x2 =4.36,5.87,4.16,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Histopathological examination of pleural effusion TB-PCR and ADA joint detection can improve diagnostic accuracy of tuberculous pleurisy.

BACKGROUND:Tamoxifen has been found to exert neuroprotection by reducing cerebral hemorrhage and edema surrounding the injured site of the spinal cord.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the neuroprotective effect of tamoxifen on rat acute spinal cord injury and the underlying mechanism.
METHODS:Sixty Sprague-Dawley rats were equivalently randomized into five groups, and modeled into spinal cord injury at T10 level using modified Al en’s weight-drop method (70 g/cm), except those in sham operation group. At 30 minutes after modeling, al rats were given the intraperitoneal injection of 2.5, 5.0 and 10 mg/kg tamoxifen or same amount of normal saline, once daily. Basso, Beattie, Bresnahan (BBB) scores were recorded at 24, 48 and 72 hours after surgery. The injured spinal cord was removed at 72 hours to observe its edema. Meanwhile, the levels of interleukin-1β, interleukin-10 and tumor necrosis factor-α, as wel as Caspase-3 activity were detected by ELISA;the protein levels of nuclear factor-κB p65, phosphorylated I-κBαand Caspase-3 were detected by western blot assay.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the model group, the hind limb function in the tamoxifen groups was significantly improved. Tamoxifen significantly decreased the water content in the rat spinal cord and inhibited spinal cord edema at 72 hours after surgery. ELISA results showed that tamoxifen significantly reduced the activity of interleukin-1β, interleukin-10, tumor necrosis factor-αand Caspase-3 (P<0.05). Western blot assay revealed that tamoxifen significantly downregulated the expression levels of nuclear factor-κB p65, phosphorylated I-κBαand Caspase-3. These results suggest that tamoxifen protects against spinal cord injury via suppressing inflammatory response and apoptosis-associated proteins.

Radiotherapy has been proven to enhance tumor-specific immune response and provide targets for immune drugs. Immune checkpoint inhibitors represented by PD-1/PD-L1 combined with radiotherapy can enhance anti-tumor activity and exert abscopal effect. In this article, research progress on the basic study and clinical trials and challenges of radiotherapy combined with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in the treatment of breast cancer were reviewed.

Objective To study the antidepressant effect of Yiyukang and to explore its possible mechanism.Methods By using the mice forced-swimming models,mice tail suspension models and mice stereotyped behavior models,the antidepressant effect of Yiyukang and its mechanism were observed.Result In the mice forced-swimming test,the im- mobility-time was significantly reduced by high and medium dosage Yiyukang with the reduced rate being 21.65% and 24.84%(P＜0.01).The high dosage can also reduce the immobility time of tail-suspension mice with the rate of 29.58%(P＜0.01).Yiyukang can strengthen the mice head shaking behavior and had synergistic action with 5- HTP on reducing stereotyped behavior in mice.Conclusion Yiyukang has certain antidepressant effect,and the mecha- nism may be associated with promoting the actions of 5-hydroxytryptamine and dopamine in mice brain.

Objective To evaluate the validity, reliability and feasibility of Traditional Chinese Medicine Scale for Children with Cerebral Palsy. Methods34 children with cerebral palsy and 34 healthy children were assessed with the Traditional Chinese Medicine Scale for Children with Cerebral Palsy. The split-half reliability, Cronbach's α coefficient, content reliability, difference validity and feasibility were tested. ResultsSplit-half reliability of this scale was 0.6199, Cronbach's α>0.7. The scores of this scale could differentiate the cerebral palsy from health children. The acceptance rate and the completion rate were both 100%. The median of the complete time was 10～15 minutes. ConclusionThe Traditional Chinese Medicine Scale for Children with Cerebral Palsy is a tool to evaluate cerebral palsy with satisfactory reliability, validity and feasibility.
