Objective To investigate the change of umbilical cord blood gas from early-stage neonates with pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome (PHIS) affected mothers and its influence upon internal environment of body,and to evaluate the significance of postpartum umbilical cord blood gas analysis.Methods Retrospective study of 101 neonates(born of 97 PHIS-affected mothers),41 cases of mild group,34 cases of moderate group,26 cases of severe group,and enrolled 52 neonates born of non-PHIS mothers as the control group.Prior to neonate's first breath,umbilical cord artery blood gas analysis was performedimmediately to determine the values of pH,arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure (PaCO2),arterial oxygen tension (PaO2),HCO3-,base excess (BE),and Apgar score was completed within 1 min after birth.Results The pH,PaO2,HCO3-,BE in severe group was significantly lower than those in mild group,moderate group,and control group [7.16 ± 0.18 vs.7.25 ± 0.09,7.22 ± 0.11,7.29 ± 0.08 ; (12.01 ± 2.75) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa) vs.(18.35 ± 1.75),(14.21 ± 2.01),(22.23 ± 1.45) mmHg; (17.11 ± 2.42) mmoFL vs.(19.82 ±3.85),(17.32 ± 3.21),(22.56 ± 3.38) mmol/L; (-9.15 ± 0.32) mmol/L vs.(-7.95 ± 0.60),(-7.21 ± 0.08),(-6.76 ± 0.03) mmol/L] (P ＜ 0.05),the PaCO2 in severe group was significantly higher than that in mild group,moderate group,and control group [(61.84 ± 32.93) mmHg vs.(54.48 ± 12.82),(58.38 ± 15.32),(51.66 ± 10.52) mmHg] (P ＜ 0.05),Apgar score 1 min after birth was positively correlated with umbilical arterial pH (P ＜ 0.05),the lower Apgar score,the lower pH.Among 65 cases of Apgar score ≤ 7 scores,37 cases of acidosis (pH ＜ 7.20),the incidence rate was 56.92％ (37/65) ; among 88 cases of Apgar score ≥ 8 scores,11 cases of acidosis,the incidence rate was 12.50％ (11/88),the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Umbilical cord blood gas analysis is more objective than Apgar score,which could reflect neonate's hypoxia-ischemia degree bore of PIHS mothers,as well as contributed to the assessment of neonate' s prognosis.Conventional umbilical cord blood gas analysis is necessary for neonates bore of PIHS-affected mothers.Enhanced monitoring should be performed in a timely manner on those neonates born after intrauterine distress signs or with low Apgar score,the prevention and therapy as early as possible can improve the quality of birth.

Objective To investigate the effect of genistein on Notch-1, SHH and HHIP gene expression and on the cell cycle and proliferation of of BxPC3 cells. Methods Human pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC3 was cultured. The BxPC3 cells were treated with genistein and then the total RNA and protein were extracted. RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of Notch-1 mRNA, SHH mRNA and HHIP mRNA. Noteh-1 and SHH protein was determined by western blotting. MTT assay was used to detect proliferation of BxPC3 cells. The cell cycle of BxPC3 cells was measured by Propidium iodide (PI) and flow cytometry. Results The inhibiting rate was 67.17%±2.32% when BxPC3 cell lines were treated by 20μg/ml genistein for 48 hours. Notch-1 mRNA was down-regulated from 2.454±0.068 to 1.304±O.169 ; SHH mRNA was down-regulated from 0.959±0.023 to O.472±0.077 ; HHIP mRNA was up-regulated from 0.625±O.158 to 1.761±0.121. Notch-1 protein expression was down-regulated from 1.361±0.109 to 0.760±0.114; SHH protein expression was down-regulated from 0.265±0.018 to 0.129±0.013. (52.77±9.47)% cells were hindered in G2/M stage. Conclusions Genistein could down-regulate Notch-1 expression and inactivate Hedgehog signaling pathway and inhibit the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells.

Objective To observe the expression of survivin and Aurora B in human pancreatic cancer BXPC3 cells after the treatment of sulindac and to explore the potential mechanism. Methods MTr assay was used to determine the effect of sulindac on the proliferation of the BXPC3 cells. RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of mRNA level of survivin and Aurora B, western blot was used to detect protein expression of survivin and Aurora B Thr-232. Cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow eytometry (FCM). Results The BXPC3 cells were inhibited by sulindac in a dose and time-dependent manner; the expression of mRNA of survivin and Aurora B were both significantly decreased from 1.5644 and 0.6554 to 0. 4372 and 0.1132 (P< 0.01), the expression of survivin protein and the phosphorylation of Aurora B Thr-232 were also decreased from 1.2735 and 0.4680 to 0.2126 and 0.2546 (P<0.01); the proportion of cells in the G0/G1 phase was increased from (56.65±1.93)% to (70.58±3.21)% (P<0.01). Conclusions Sulindac had inhibitory effects on the growth of BXPC3 cells, the possible mechanism was via decreasing the expression of survivin which depressed the activity of Aurora B, then the CPC was influenced. The most of the cells were blocked in the G0/G1 phase, and the cells' mitosis was inhibited.
