To study the peptidergic innervation in cardiac adenocarcinoma, immunohistochemistry method was employed to examine the distribution of ten kinds of neuropeptide immuno reactive nerve fibers in human cardiac adenocarcinoma, which was surgically obtained, and their relationship with tumor cells. Substantial amount of many kinds of neuropeptides including GAL, Dyn, NPY immuno reactive nerve fibers were observed in the tumor. Most of them were closely in contact with tumor cells. It is possible that there is peptidergic innervation in cardiac adenocarcinoma.

Aim To investigate antiaging effects of beta-carotene(?-C) from dunaliella salina on fruit flies and rats and to probe possible mechanisms.Methods The whole study contains fruit flies experiment and rats experiment.In the fruit flies experiment,fruit flies were divided into nine groups according to different ingredient in the nutrient medium.We took life span,flight capability,the number of copulatory fruit flies aged 8 days,and head MDA content of fruit flies aged 40 days as indexes of aging.In rats experiment, 54 aged male rats were divided randomly into 6 groups and bred for 45 days with different diet.Plasma MDA,CAT and GSH-Px were detected.MDA,SOD and GSH-Px in heart,liver,pulmo,lien and brain were also detected.Results Compared with control group in fruit flies experiment,the shortest life span,maximum life span and mean life span were increased in each experimental group.Flight rate and flight frequency were increased,the number of copulatory fruit flies was also increased.The content of MDA was significantly decreased.In rats experiment,plasma MDA content was significantly decreased.The activity of GSH-Px was elevated.Similar results were obtained in different tissues.MDA content was significantly decreased in each tissue sample,while activities of SOD and GSH-Px were significantly inceased.Conclusion ?-C from dunaliella salina had antiaging effects on fruit flies and aged rats.The possible mechanism resided in its antioxidative effects owing to the elevated antioxidases.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical efficacy of the lymph node dissection patterns of the reverse and the traditional cabbage in hand-assisted laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy (HALG).
METHODSFrom December 2010 to October 2013, 194 patients with HALG in Chengdu Military General Hospital were enrolled in this study. According to the pattern of lymph node dissection, 108 patients were performed with the reverse procedure which took spleen as starting point, from left to right, and 86 patients were performed with the traditional cabbage procedure which took the abdominal cavity as the center, from both sides to middle. A retrospective comparative analysis was made on the intra- and post-operative data between the two groups.
RESULTSAll the patients were successfully performed with HALG, and no peri-operative death occurred. There were no significant differences in the incision length [(7.0 ± 0.2) cm vs. (6.9 ± 0.3) cm], the operative time [(170.9 ± 33.8) minute vs. (174.6 ± 22.4) minute], dissected lymph node number (17.6 ± 7.5 vs. 17.1 ± 5.8) and post-operative complications [(6.5%(7/108) vs. 8.1%(7/86)] between the reverse group and cabbage group (all P>0.05). However, less blood loss [(204.6 ± 98.2) ml vs. (259.1 ± 122.6) ml, P<0.01] and shorter postoperative hospital stay [(9.0 ± 1.7) day vs. (10.5 ± 4.0) day, P<0.01] were observed in reverse group as compared to cabbage group. During 1 to 6 months follow-up, no death case was found in reverse group, while 1 case died due to upper gastrointestinal bleeding 48 days after operation in cabbage group.
CONCLUSIONEfficacy is similar between the two HALG procedures in lymph node dissection, while reverse procedure has certain advantages, such as less blood loss and faster recovery.
