Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effect of 4'-methylether-scutellarein(4-MS),an extract from Verbena officinalis,on human choriocarcinoma JAR cell line and the possible mechanism.Methods:JAR cells were exposed to 4'-methylether-scutellarein of different concentrations for 48 h.MTT assay was used to examine the anti-proliferative effect of 4'-methylether-scutellarein.Flow cytometry was used to investigate the apoptosis and the changes of cell cycle.AO/EB double staining was applied to discriminate the apoptotic cells from dead ones.The changes of Survivin,p38-MAPK and Caspase 3 mRNA expressions were detected by RT-PCR in JAR cells treated with 4-MS.Furthermore,Western blotting assay was used to determine Survivin protein expression,phosphorylation level of p38 and Caspase 3 in JAR cells before and after 4-MS treatment.Results:4-MS inhibited the proliferation of JAR cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner(P

With the ventilator associated lung injury (VALI) atracting more and more attention,lung protective ventilation strategy (LPVS) has gradually been applied to clinical practice.Obese patients are at higher risk in VALI for laparoscopic surgery,mechanical ventilation induced atelectasis is an important reason for low oxygen in intraoperative and postoperativen procedure.In laparoscopic surgery,high abdominal pressure causes the elevation of diaphragm,and increases airway pressure.The excessive pressure increases the amount of alveolar dead space and airway pressure,reduces lung compliance,and increases the possibility of barotrauma and colotrauma.In addition,carbon dioxide pnenmoperitoneum indces hypercapnia.Both of them influence the recovery of postoperative lung function.To optimize intraoperative management and improve the prognosis of patients with general anesthesia,the application of LPVS attracts more attention,including small tidal volume,positive end-expiratory pressure,and recruitment maneuvers,etc.However,LVPS may also cause lung injury.This article is a review on the application of LPVS in laparoscopic surgery of obese patients.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and superiority of enteral-intestinal nutrition after opera- tion of replacement of esophagus with stomach.Methods 62 elderly patients with cancer of esophageal were radom- ly divided into early enteral-intestinal nutrition(EEN) group and total parenteral nutrition(TPN) group,the average cost of hospitalization,recovery situation,postoperative bodyweight,liver function,nutritional status were compared between the two groups.Results The average cost in the early enteral-intestinal nutrition group was less than that in the parenteral nutrition group,the bodyweight in two group were declined and the level of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were increased after operation,the level of transferring ferroprotein was lower in TPN group after operation than that in the EEN group(P

Objective To examine the relationships among measures of gait recovery and community integra-tion index in people with brain injury.Methods 142 brain injured patients were chosen in this study.Community Balance and Mobility Scale,Dynamic Gait Index,Ten-Meter Walk Test for gait speed,and the Community Integration Questionnaire (CIQ) was measured.Results Average walk speed was 0.31-5.30 (1.36 ±0.88)m/s;DGI score was 5-24 (18.6 ±5.44) points;CMBS score was 0 -96 (54.1 ±25.3) points;CIQ subscale 6 -29 (16.2 ± 5.1)points,CIQ family subscale was 0-10 (4.8 ±3.0)points;CIQ society subscale was 4-12(8.2 ±2.1)points;CIQ productivity subscale was 0-7(3.8 ±2.2).The correlation between age and Ten-Meter Walk Test was nega-tive significantly (r=-0.50,P<0.05).All 3 balance/gait measures correlated significantly with the CIQ Productiv-ity subscale (r=0.35-0.58,P<0.05).Conclusion The ability of people with brain injury to engage in work/school/volunteer activity may be reduced by impairments in balance and mobility.

Histone deacetylase7 (HDAC7) belongs to Ⅱ a histone deacetylases.HDAC7 can alter chromosome structure and regulate gene transcription,and plays an important role in tumorigenesis and tumor angiogenesis.Increasing evidences show that HDAC7 can maintain the vascular integrity and continuity,and regulate the expression of angiogenic genes.HDAC7 also can regulate the migration and proliferation of vascular endothelial cells,and regulate angiogenic effect mediated by VEGF and other proangiogenenic factors contributing to tumor angiogenesis.Therefore,studies of the mechanisms in which HDAC7 contributes to tumor angiogenesis and the development of HDAC7 inhibitors could provide a new direction to tumor diagnosis and therapy.

ObjectiveTo explore the influence of cognitive behavioral intervention on hospitalized patients with schizophrenia.Methods100 hospitalized schizophrenia patients were randomly divided into experimental group and the control group.Routine treatment given to the patients in the control group and cognitive behavioral intervention was applied to the patients at the same time based on routine treatment in experimental group.The patients were assessed with the mini-mental state examination( MMSE),activities of daily living(ADL) and WHO battery of cognitive assessment instrument(WHO-BCAI) pre-and post-cognitive behavioral intervention.ResultsThe expenrentcl geoup and ntrol group before and after the intervention the average MMSE score was(21.8 ± 3.9),(24.4 ± 4.7 ),(21.5 ±3.4),(22.9 ±3.8) ;ADL score an average of(28.8 ±7.9),(25.1 ±4.5),(27.9 ±7.1),(25.2 ±4.8) (t =6.89,11.13,all P ＜ 0.05 ) ; cognitive function in the auditory vocabulary learning,language skills,visual identification,the connection test and cancellation tests were different ( P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionCognitive behavioral intervention had positive influence on cognitive function in hospitalized patients with schizophrenia.

Objective To construct pEGFP-N1-TGF-β1 recombinant plasmid and transfect it into primary cultured neonatal piglet type Ⅱ alveolar epithelium cell (AEC-Ⅱ) by using lipofectamine 2000,in order to provide basis of methodology for producing recombinant plasmids for transplantation of transfected AEC-Ⅱ into ALI/ARDS animal model lungs.Methods PCR primers were designed to amplify the human TGF-β1 cDNA fragment from plasmid.XhoI and EcoRI were used for double digesting the empty plasmid pEGFP-N1 and cDNA fragment of human TGF-β1.Then the products of double enzyme digestion by using T4 DNA ligase were connected and transformed into DH5α and cultured over night for 16 hours.The structure of recombinant plasmid was identified by using PCR and base sequencing to verify the correctness of pEGFP-N1-TGF-β1 recombinant plasmid.It was then transfected into primarily cultured AEC-Ⅱ by lipofectamine2000 mediated transfection and cultured for another 48 hour.Plasmid DNA (pEGFP-N1-TGF-β1 recombinant plasmid) and lipofectamine 2000 were added into serum-free DMEM respectively,then DNA suspension and Lipofectamine 2000 suspension were blended together and added into cells.After 24-48 hours later,the expression level of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) was evaluated under fluorescence microscope.Results The structure of vector was verified as pEGFP-N1-TGF-β1 recombinant plasmid by using PCR and base sequencing.Green fluorescence found in some cells showed that the pEGFP-N1-TGF-β1 recombinant plasmids had been successfully transfected into primary cultured AEC-Ⅱ,however,the transfection efficiency still need tobe further improved such as repeating the transfection procedure once again or using adenovirus mediated transfection method to improve the efficiceny and to transplant the cells into animal lungs eventually.Conclusions pEGFP-N1-TGF-β1 recombinant plasmid was successfully constructed and,for the first time,transfected into primarily cultured AEC-Ⅱ of newborn piglets.This established method should be useful for investigation of therapeutic effect and outcomes of lung with experimental acute lung injury.

Objective:To observe therapeutic effect and influence of rosuvastatin on levels of interleukin (IL)-35 and nu- clear factor-κB (NF-κB)in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods:A total of 85 CHD patients were randomly divided into rosuvastatin group (n=43,received rosuvastatin calcium therapy based on routine treatment)and atorvastatin group (n=42,received atorvastatin calcium therapy based on routine treatment),both groups were treated for eight weeks all.Cardiac index (CI),cardiac output (CO),left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDd),serum levels of IL-35 and NF-κB,and total effective rate were measured and compared be- tween two groups before and after treatment.Results:Compared with before treatment,there were significant rise in CI, CO,LVEF and IL-35 level,and significant reductions in LVEDd and NF-κB level in both groups after treatment (P<0.05 or<0.01).Compared with atorvastatin group after treatment,there were significant rise in CI [(3.54±0.72)L· min-1 ·m-2 vs.(3.88±0.83)L·min-1 ·m-2 ],CO [(3.78±0.89)L/min vs.(4.94±0.96)L/min],LVEF [(56.20 ±9.71)% vs.(63.48±14.15)%]and serum IL-35 level [(96.26±24.33)pg/ml vs.(106.92±27.26)pg/ml],and sig- nificant reductions in LVEDd [(4.71±0.89)cm vs.(4.36±0.75)cm]and NF-κB level [(21.51±5.01)ng/ml vs. (18.32± 5.17)ng/ml]in rosuvastatin group,P<0.05 all.Total effective rate of rosuvastatin group (95.35% vs. 76.19%)was significantly higher than that of atorvastatin group,P<0.05. Conclusion:Rosuvastatin possesses more sig- nificant therapeutic effect than that of atorvastatin on coronary heart disease,and its heart protection effect besides lipid lowering may be related to regulating levels of interleukin-35 and nuclear factor-κB.
