Objective To investigate the effects of siRNA targeting decoy receptor 3 on the cell proliferation of ovarian carcinoma cell CAOV3. Methods We constructed siRNA targeting decoy receptor 3,which was transfected into ovarian carcinoma cells CAOV3 , and observed the effects of DcR3 siRNA on the cell proliferation of CAOV3 cell by MTT experiment. The experiment contained 3 groups, including the normal control group (CAOV3 cell was not transfected), the negative control group (CAOV3 cell was transfected with blank vector) and the experimental group (CAOV3 cell was transfected with DcR3 siRNA). The expression levels of DcR3 mRNA were detected by Real-time PCR. Results DcR3 siRNA recognized and degraded DcR3 mRNA in CAOV3 cells of the experimental group. DcR3 mRNA of the experimental group was significantly decreased. The proliferation of CAOV3 cell was significantly decreased by DcR3 siRNA comparing with the normal control group and negative control group (P < 0.01). Conclusion DcR3 siRNA can inhibit the proliferation of ovarian cancer cell line CAOV3 by recognized and degraded DcR3 mRNA.

The clinicopathological data of 173 cases of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT)were retrospectively analyzed.Among them 125 were males and 48 females with a mean age of 47.9 y (5-78 y).The lesions of 117 cases were located in lungs,41 cases in eyes,8 in ileocecum,2 in liver,2 in spleen,1 in abdominal wall,1 in maxillary sinus and 1 in face.The average diameter of lesions were 3.5 cm,ranging from 1.0 cm to 7.0 cm.The clinical manifestations were not specific,depending on the locations of tumor.The imaging examinations were helpful for diagnosis.The prcsence of slender-spindled myofibroblasts and proliferation of fibroblast cells,with infiltration of chronic inflammatory cells were the basic histopathological features of the disease.Combined with the histological characteristics and immunohistochemical staining IMT can be differentiated from other spindle cell tumors.Appropriate surgical resection is the main treatment for IMT.

A new pyranocoumarin as an analogue of calophyllolide, compound 6, is firstly prepared and reported to have potent anti-inflammatory activity on carrageenin-induced edema in rats.

Objective To discuss the effective early postoperative fluid management in infant living-donor liver transplantation. Methods From January 2008 to March 2009, 17 cases of infant living-donor liver transplantation were carried out. According to infant postoperative physiological and hemodynamic characteristics, rehydration was properly controlled on the surgery day, the negative fluid balance was achieved as soon as possible in three days. The infant condition changes, vital signs and urine output were closely monitored. At the same time, the nature and volume of fluid infusion was timely adjusted to maintain the infant in a stable environment in accordance with the laboratory tests. Results The early postopera-donortive hemodynamic stability was effectively maintained in 17 cases of infants, no case appeared with the capacity-related complications. Conclusions It is the key to reduce postoperative complications and mortality with effective circulating blood volume and hemodynamic stability and the negative fluid balance state in the postop-erative 3 days.

Objective To investigate the expression of pro-irtilammatory mediator in peripheral blood of patients with severe sepsis treated by different therapeutic dose of high-volume hemofiltration (HVHF). Methods According to the standard of severe sepsis, 83 cases were randomly divided into three groups, A group [60 ml/(kg·h)], S group[80 ml/(kg·h)], C group[100 ml/(kg·h)], respectively. The levels of TNF-α, IL-1, IL-8 in plasma of patients were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) before treatment and at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 h after treatment, and the grades of APACHEⅢ were evaluated at every time-point simultaneously. Results The grades of APACHEⅢ were lower after treatment than those before treatment (P<0.05), but the decreases between every group had no significant deviation (P>0.05). The levels of TNF-Ⅲ, IL-1, IL-8 in plasma of patients were all decreased gradually after treatment. Compared with those before treatment, the levels of TNF-α,IL-1 and IL-8 at 2, 4 and 6 h after HVHF were obviously decreased (P<0.05). The levels of TNF-α, IL-1 and IL-8 were lightly increases at 4 and 6 h after HVHF, but they were lower that those before treatment (P<0.05). At every time-point, the levels of TNF-α, IL-1, IL-8 trended to decrease following the increase, of displacement liquid volume, the mean levels of pro-inflammatory mediator in C group were markedly reduced compared with the levels in A group (P<0.05). Conclusion HVHF can decrease the levels of pro-inflammatory mediator in peripheral blood of patients with severe sepsis and the grades of APACHEⅢ, the more the therapeutic dose of HVHF, the lower the levels of pro-inflammatory mediator.

Objective To analyze the genetic characteristics of echovirus 6 ( E-6) strains isolated from patients with acute meningitis/encephalitis syndrome ( AMES) in 2014 and sewage samples in 2013—2014 in Shandong province and to investigate their correlations.Methods Enterovirus strains were isolated from cerebrospinal fluid, stool and throat swab samples collected from 940 cases of AMES and 96 sewage samples used for environmental surveillance.The positive isolates were identified by molecular typing meth-od.Homologous and phylogenetic analyses based on the VP1 sequences of E-6 isolates were performed.Re-sults Altogether 47 E-6 strains were isolated from patients with AMES in 2014, accounting for 29.56%of all isolated enteroviruses ( EVs) strains.No E-6 strains were isolated from AMES cases in 2013.Data of the environmental surveillance showed that E-6 virus strains had been frequently detected in sewage samples since the summer of 2013 to the end of 2014.In total, 40 E-6 virus strains were isolated (7.87% of total isolated EVs strains) in 2013 and 139 E-6 virus strains (26.18%) in 2014.Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the E-6 isolates recruited in this study belonged to clusters A and C with high intracluster sequence iden-tities between AMES and environmental isolates.The nucleotide identities were 98.3%-100% among cluster A E-6 virus strains isolated from AMES cases in 2014 and 96.6%-100% among cluster A E-6 virus environ-mental isolates during the surveillance year 2013—2014.The cluster A E-6 virus strains shared 97.1%-100% nucleotide identities between the AMES and environmental isolates.For cluster C E-6 virus strains, the nucleotide identities were 100%, 98.7%-100% and 99.1%-100%, respectively.Conclusion The epidemic of viral encephalitis in Shandong province in 2014 was associated the transmission of two lineages of E-6 virus.Environmental surveillance revealed the potential epidemic of E-6 virus even before the epidemic of viral encephalitis in Shandong province, indicating the possibility of using environmental surveillance for early warning of related diseases.

Objective To explore the relationship between gene MTDH expression and its role in promo-ting gastric carcinoma metastasis .Methods We collected clinical specimens and cultured gastric carcinoma cell lines.By Western blotting and Real -time PCR methods,protein and mRNA levels in tissues and MTDH relation-ship with EMT were detected .Results There was 86%of patients who expressed MTDH positively and 13%of normal gastric mucosa was positive expression .The results showed that the expressive level of MTDH gene in gas-tric carcinoma was higher than in the normal tissues .The expression of MTDH was correlated with TNM stage、mi-crovascular invasion、recurrence and metastasis .The expressive level of MTDH was correlated with two epithelial mesenchymal transition markers ( E-cadherin and N-cadherin ) .Conclusion MTDH may promote gastric car-cinoma metastasis through the induction of EMT process and may be a candidate biomarker for therapeutic target .
