Objective:To investigate the methods and nutritional effects of endoscopic jejunal ac cess for enteral feeding.Methods:106 cases placed jejunum feeding tube were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group,54 cases in the observation group and 52 cases in the control group.43 patients underwent nasogastric enteral nutrition were as the nasogastric tube group.The traditional endoscopic jejunal access method was used in control group,and the modified endoscopic jejunal access method was used in observation group.The operation time,the success rate of indwelling,complications and nutritional indexes were compared among these three groups.Results:The operative time of the observation group and nasogastric tube group was significantly shorter than that of the control group (P < 0.05).The success rate of indwelling was significantly lower in the control group (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications among these three groups (P > 0.05).After intubation and nutritional treatment in all the groups,hemoglobin,plasma albumin and serum albumin levels were significantly improved (P < 0.05).There were no significant differences in nutritional indexes between the observation group and the control group (P > 0.05).The levels of hemoglobin,plasma albumin and plasma prealbumin in nasogastric tube group were significantly lower than those in the observation group and the control group (P < 0.05).Conclusion:Modified endoscopic jejunal access for enteral feeding can effectively shorten the intubation operation time and improve success rate and nutritional indexes.

The growth inhibition and pro-apoptosis effects of dracorhodin perchlorate on human prostate cancer PC-3 cell line were examined. After administration of 10-80 μmol/L dracorhodin perchlorate for 12-48 h, cell viability of PC-3 cells was measured by MTT colorimetry. Cell proliferation ability was detected by colony formation assay. Cellular apoptosis was inspected by acridine orange-ethidium bromide fluorescent staining, Hoechst 33258 fluorescent staining, and flow cytometry (FCM) with annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide dual staining. The results showed that dracorhodin perchlorate inhibited the growth of PC-3 in a dose- and time-dependent manner. IC50 of dracorhodin perchlorate on PC-3 cells at 24 h was 40.18 μmol/L. Cell clone formation rate was decreased by 86% after treatment with 20 μmol/L of dracorhodin perchlorate. Some cells presented the characteristic apoptotic changes. The cellular apoptotic rates induced by 10-40 μmol/L dracorhodin perchlorate for 24 h were 8.43% to 47.71% respectively. It was concluded that dracorhodin perchlorate significantly inhibited the growth of PC-3 cells by suppressing proliferation and inducing apoptosis of the cells.

To study the expression and significance of the serine protease Omi/HtrA2 in prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia. The expression of Omi/HtrA2 was assayed by means of immunohistochemical technique in 41 prostate cancer (Cap), 20 benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and 10 normal prostate (NP) specimens. Omi/HtrA2 expression was positive in 30 (73.17%) prostate cancer specimens, and the positive rate of Omi/HtrA2 was lower in well differentiated than in poorly and moderately differentiated groups (P<0.05). By contrast, the cells in normal prostate and benign prostatic hyperplasia groups showed no or weak expression of Omi/HtrA2.Prostate cancer cells in vivo may need Omi/HtrA2 expression for apoptosis, and that Omi/HtrA2expression might be involved in prostate cancer development.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the expression of Exosome Component 4(EXOSC4) in the tissues of newly diagnosed patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and its clinical significance.
METHODS:
The expression of EXOSC4 protein in the tissues of 181 newly diagnosed DLBCL patients was analyzed by immunohistochemical staining. Clinical data were collected. The correlation between EXOSC4 protein expression in the tissues of newly diagnosed DLBCL patients and clinical features were analyzed and its prognostic significance.
RESULTS:
The positive rate of EXOSC4 protein expression was 68.51% in the tissues of 181 newly diagnosed DLBCL patients. These patients were divided into two groups, with 44 cases in high expression group and 137 cases in low expression group. There were no significant differences in age, gender, B symptoms, serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score, Ann Arbor stage, extranodal disease, International Prognostic Index (IPI) score, National Comprehensive Cancer Network IPI (NCCN-IPI) score, and cell origin between the two groups (P>0.05). Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that high EXOSC4 protein expression in tissues was an independent poor prognostic factor for OS and PFS in newly diagnosed DLBCL patients (all P<0.05). K-M survival analysis showed that newly diagnosed DLBCL patients with high EXOSC4 protein expression had significantly shorter overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) than those patients with low EXOSC4 protein expression (all P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
High EXOSC4 protein expression in tissues of newly diagnosed DLBCL patients is an independent poor prognostic factor for survival.
