Objective: To study significance of detection of serum levels of high sensitive C reactive protein (hsCRP), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) for assessing patient’s condition in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods: Serum levels of hsCRP, TNF-α and IL-8 were measured in 78 CHD patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) before and three months after PCI. Among CHD patients, there were 17 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), 36 patients with unstable angina pectoris (UAP) and 25 patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP). Their levels of above indicators were compared with those of 47 healthy subjects (normal control group). Results: （1）Compared with normal control group, there were significant increase in serum levels of hsCRP [ (1.96±0.60) mg/L vs. (22.43±9.68) mg/L, (18.27±8.56) mg/L], TNF-α [ (11.26±3.82) ng/L vs. (60.12±19.37) ng/L, (40.33±15.48) ng/L] and IL-8 [ (48.26±20.87) ng/L vs. (120.36±33.32) ng/L, (105.92±34.2) ng/L] in AMI group and UAP group before treatment (P<0.01 all), and Pearson linear correlation analysis showed that hsCRP was positively correlated with levels of TNF-α and IL-8 (r=0.873~0.956, P<0.01 all); （2）Serum level of hsCRP in SAP group [(6.04±2.38) mg/L] was significantly higher than that of normal control group (P<0.01); （3）Compared with before PCI, there were significant decrease in serum levels of hsCRP[(13.89±6.13) mg/L vs. (2.06±1.42) mg/L], TNF-α[(38.26±14.27) ng/L vs. (13.76±4.12) ng/L] and IL-8[(98.96±32.9) ng/L vs. (50.12±19.85) ng/L] in CHD patients three-month after PCI (P<0.01 all), and they were no significant difference compared with normal control group (P>0.05 all). Conclusions: Detections of serum levels of hsCRP, TNF-α and IL-8 in CHD patients are of certain significance for diagnosis, treatment and prognosis prediction of CHD.

0.05).Conclusion Breath-hold MRCP utilizing the SSFSE technique with high-quality images can accurately assess the level of obstruction and the causes of the obstruction in patients with obstructive jaundice, without the risks of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP).This MRCP technique should be preferred a reliable and noninvasive imaging modality for the diagnosis of obstructive jaundice.

Background and purpose:Members of the NF-kappaB family of transcription factors could activate bcl-2 anti-apoptotic genes at the transcriptional level and then regulate cell apoptosis.The p53 tumor suppressor gene has a clear role!in both the regulation of cell cycle and expression of apoptosis-related bcl-2 family.There were few reports about the expression of NF-?Bp65,bcl-2,bcl-xL and their relationships with p53 and cell apoptosis in pancreatic cancer.The present study was designed to analyze the expression of the antiapoptotic molecules nuclear factor kappaB(NF-?Bp65),bcl-2 and bcl-xL in pancreatic ductal carcinoma(PC) and their correlations to the apoptosis index and p53 expression.Methods:Immunohistochemical analyses of P53 protein was performed on 25 cases of pancreatic ductal carcinoma and 9 cases of normal pancreas;Western blot was used to evaluate NF-?Bp65 protein and RT-PCR for bcl-2 mRNA and bcl-xL mRNA of 25 cases of pancreatic ductal carcinoma and 9 NP cases.The apoptosis was determined by TUNEL.Results:The positive rate of P53 protein was 56%(14/25)in PC tissues,significantly higher than that in NP tissues(P

ObjectiveTo evaluate the changes of Ag-NORs in patients with gallbladder carcinoma.MethodsAg-NORs in the peripheral blood lymphocytes,bile lymphocytes and the mucosa of gallbladder were detected by a cell image analysis of KL-2 in 20 normal volunteers,90 cholecystitis cases, and 20 gallbladder carcinomas.

Objective To examine the expression of p44/42 mitogen -activated protein kinase (p44/42MAPK) and Phospho-p44/42MAPK in cicatrix (hy pertropic scars and keloids) and to aim at exploring the role of activated p44/ 42 MAPK pathway in development of cicatrix. Methods In or der to analyse the differences, 10 samples of normal skin (NS), hypertropic scar s (HS) and keloids (K) were collected, and then the extracted cytoplasmic protei ns from each tissue were examined by Western blotting for p44/42 MAPK and Phosph o p44/42MAPK and immunohistochemical staining with specific antibodies was emplo yed to determine that in fibroblasts of K, HS and NS. Results There was no evident difference of p44/42MAPK in the tissues and fibroblas ts between cicatrix and NS, but Phospho-p44/42MAPK was obviously higher in cica trix than that in NS. In cicatrix, there was no evident difference of p44/42MAPK in tissues between HS and K, while in fibroblasts, Phospho-p44/42MAPK in K was much higher than in HS. Conclusion Activation of p44/42MA PK pathways involves in formation of cicatrix.

Objective To discuss the effect of small needle knife therapy on collagensⅠ and Ⅲ in the hypertrophic scar tissues that was subcutaneously transplanted into nude mice. Methods Six samples of human hypertrophic scar tissues without cuticle were subcutaneously transplanted into the back of 24 nude mice to create the animal models of hypertrophic scar. Ten days after of the operation,the mice were divided into control,0.1 mg/ml triamcinolone,0.2 mg/ml triamcinolone,and small needle-knife groups with 6 mice in each. Specimens of the scar tissues were collected in 14 days for immunohistochemistry to detect the collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ. Results In all the groups,collagens Ⅰand Ⅲ distributed extensively in the cytoplasm of fibroblast and tissues. Image analysis showed that the concentration of collagens Ⅰand Ⅲ in 0.1 mg/ml and 0.2 mg/ml triamcinolone groups were significantly lower than those in the control (0.09?0.03,0.11?0.05 and 0.12?0.02,0.11?0.01 vs. 0.17?0.04,0.19?0.03,P0.05). Conclusions Small needle-knife therapy can reduce the concentration of collagens Ⅰand Ⅲ in transplanted hypertrophic scar tissues in nude mice.

Objective To explore the effect of Xiao Ban Xu, a compound Chinese traditional medicinal prescription, on the expression of collagenⅠand Ⅲ of keloid fibroblasts in vitro. Methods Six samples of keloid fibroblasts (KFB) and 6 samples of normal fibroblasts (NFB) entered the study as experimental and control groups, respectively. With the application of Xiao Ban Xu (10?g/ml), the fibroblast culture system and the ABC immunocytochemical staining method were used to investigate the expression of collagenⅠand Ⅲ of KFB and NFB. Results The density of the staining of collagenⅠand Ⅲ in the experimental group was much higher than that in the control group, with (7675 4?825 5 vs 2305 2?320 4 and 10595 2?1311 5 vs 2434 8?356 9; t =13 37 and 12 66, P =0 00004 and 0 00005) or without (11113 1?1304 9 vs 3519 6?236 0 and 11157 7?1300 3 vs 2626 5?426 3; t =14 42 and 13 47, P =0 00003 and 0 00004) the addition of Xiao Ban Xu. Compared with blank control group, the density of the staining of collagenⅠand Ⅲ was degenerated greatly in the experimental group after 48 hours of application of Xiao Ban Xu (7675 4?825 5 vs 11113 1?1304 9 and 10595 2?1311 5 vs 11157 7?1300 3; t =10 31 and 4 68, P =0 0001 and 0 0054). Furthermore, the inhibition ratios of collagenⅠwas 30 7%, and the one of collagen Ⅲ 5 1%, in the experimental group. Conclusions The expression of collagenⅠand Ⅲ of keloid fibroblasts in vitro may be significantly more intensive than the one of normal skin fibroblasts. It seems that the expression of collagenⅠand Ⅲ, especially collagenⅠ, in keloid fibroblasts and normal skin fibroblasts in vitro may be suppressed greatly by the application of Xiao Ban Xu.
