Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2014;37(6):29-31
Objective To compare the clinical effective of two lung protective ventilation modes in severe traumatic wet lung (STWL) with lung ventilation strategy.Methods Ninety-two cases of STWL patients were divided into adaptive support ventilation (ASV) group and pressure type synchronous intermittent aeration instruction (P-SIMV) + pressure support ventilation (PSV) group with 46 cases by random number table method in each.Heart rate,mean arterial pressure (MAP),pH value,arterial blood oxygen partial pressure (PaO2),arterial bold carbondioxide partial pressure (PaCO2),minute ventilation,tidal volume,total respiratory frequency,airway peak pressure and mean airway pressure,airway closure pressure,and pulmonary compliance at 30 min after mechanical ventilation were compared between two groups.Results At 30 min after mechanical ventilation,heart rate,MAP,pH value,PaO2,PaCO2 and mean airway pressure,airway peak pressure and airway closure pressure between two groups had no statistical significance (P >0.05).But tidal volume,minute ventilation,total respiratory frequency,pulmonary compliance in ASV group were obviously improved compared with those in P-SIMV + PSV group [(692.6 ± 38.6) mlvs.(558.5±25.6)ml,(8.9± 1.7) Lvs.(7.8± 1.6) L,(16.3±3.3) times/min vs.(21.3±3.2)times/min,(42.15 ± 5.28) ml/cmH2O (1 cmH2O =0.098 kPa) vs.(39.15±5.47) ml/cmH2O] (P < 0.01 or <0.05).Conclusion For patients with STWL in the lung protective ventilation strategy,ASV can automatically adjust the level of inspiratory pressure support according to the respiratory mechanics condition of the patients,improving tidal volume and pulmonary compliance,and reducing respiratory rate,which has no obvious effect on the hemodynamics and vital signs.

Purpose To investigate the prognostic significance of NQO1 protein expression in colorectal carcinoma ( CRC) patients. Methods 192 cases of primary CRC, 28 of colonic dysplasia, and 44 of adjacent non-tumor tissues were selected for immunohisto-chemical staining of NQO1 protein. Correlation between NQO1 overexpression and clinicopathologic characteristics, and the survival rates were calculated by the statistical methods. Results The strongly positive rate of NQO1 protein in CRC was significantly higher than that in gastric dysplasia and adjacent non-tumor tissues (P<0. 01, respectively). NQO1 high-expression rate was positively cor-related with differentiation, serosal invasion, lymph node metastasis, and clinical stage (P <0. 05, respectively). Survival curve showed that the disease-free survival and 5-year survival rates of the patients with high NQO1 expression were obviously shorter than those of patients with low NQO1 expression (P<0. 001, respectively). Further analysis showed that, high expression of NQO1 predic-ted the lower disease-free survival and 5-year survival rates in late-stage patients (P<0. 01, respectively). Importantly, NQO1 was an independent risk factor for the prognosis of CRC using Cox proportional hazards regression model ( HR: 1. 398,95%CI: 1. 011 ~1. 934, P=0. 043). Conclusions Detection of NQO1 protein expression in CRC has an important clinical significance, and it is ex-pected to become a new biomarker for CRC.

Objective To detect the expression of heat shock protein 47(HSP47) in renal proximal epithelial cell lines (HK-2) and to investigate the role of HSP47 in the progress of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) induced epithelial-mesenchymal transdifferentiation (EMT) in HK-2 cells.Methods HK-2 cells were exposed to TGF-β1 (0,2.5,5,10 μg/L) for different time (0,12,24,48 h).The expression of HSP47 was examined by Western blotting.Then HK-2 cells were exposed to 10 μg/L TGF-β1,the expressions of vimentin,zona occludens-1 (ZO-1) were examined by Western blotting and real-time PCR.Furthermore,the expressions of p-Smad3 and Smad3 were examined by Western blotting.HK-2 cells were transfected with HSP47 siRNA and siRNA negative control before exposing to TGF-β1.Then the expressions of vimentin,ZO-1 were detected by Western blotting and real-time PCR,meanwhile Western blotting for HSP47,p-Smad3 and Smad3.Results Stimulating HK-2 with TGF-β1 resulted in a significant increased expression of HSP47 in time-and concentration-dependent manner (P < 0.05).Meanwhile,TGF-β1 up-regulated the protein and mRNA expression of vimentin (P < 0.05),and down-regulated the protein and mRNA expression of ZO-1 (P < 0.05),all in time-dependent manner.Stimulating HK-2 with TGF-β1 resulted in phosphorylation of Smad3,which was peaked at 30 min,slightly decreased at 1 h,and then increased again between 24 and 48 h (P < 0.05).Compared to the TGF-β1 group,inhibition of HSP4.7 expression in HK-2up-regulated the protein and mRNA expression of ZO-1,down-regulated the protein and mRNA expression of vimentin (P < 0.05) and down-regulated the ratio of p-Smad3/Smad3.HSP47 siRNA negative control had no significant effect on the expressions of ZO-1,vimentin and p-Smad3/Smad3 (P > 0.05).Conclusion HSP47 can promote the EMT of renal tubular epithelial cell which is possibly via the TGF-β1-Smad3 pathway.

Objective To clone and express the outer surface protein C ( OspC) from a Chinese Borrelia afzelli FP1 strain and to evaluate the immune protectivity of the recombinant OspC protein ( rOspC) . Methods The gene encoding OspC protein of Borrelia afzelli FP1 strain was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and then inserted into pET-30a plasmid to construct the recombinant expression plasmid pET-30a-OspC. The transformed E. coli BL21 strains carrying pET-30a-OspC plasmid were induced by IPTG to express OspC protein. The expressed proteins were purified by Ni-IDA resin chromatography and analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot assay. Indirect immunofluorescence assay ( IFA) was performed to detect anti-rOspC protein antibodies in serum samples from rabbits immunized with rOspC protein. In vitro neutral-ization test was performed for evaluation the immune protectivity of rOspC protein. Results The recombi-nant expression plasmid pET-30a-OspC was successfully constructed and highly expressed in E. coli BL21. A strong antigen-antibody reaction between the rOspC protein and polyclonal antibody against Borrelia afzelli FP1 strain was detected by Western blot assay. The titers of IgG in serum samples from rabbits immunized with rOspC protein were significantly elevated. The in vitro neutralization test indicated that 106/ml of Borre-lia afzelli FP1 strains were neutralized by every anti-OspC protein serum sample from the experiment group. Conclusion The rOspC protein showed a strong immune protectivity against Borrelia afzelli, which could be used in the development of polyvalent subunit vaccine against lyme disease.

ObjectiveTo analyze the clinical manifestation of hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) due to anti-M and Rhesus system.MethodsClinical information was collected and analyzed for three cases with HDN due to anti-M and 64 with Rhesus hemolytic disease, who were admitted to Department of Neonatology, Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from February 2011 to January 2015, as well as another 28 cases of HDN due to anti-M with complete information retrieved from literature in Wanfang and China National Knowledge lnfrastructure (CNKI) Database from 1992 to 2014.Chi-square test was performed for statistical analysis.ResultsTwo out of the 64 Rh hemolytic babies gave up therapy due to kernicterus and another two out of the 31 MN hemolytic babies, obtained from literature, died 24 h after birth because of anemia or edema, while the rest survived. Although more babies were the first child of the family in HDN due to anti-M than those of Rh hemolytic disease [26%(8/31) vs 9%(6/64),χ2=4.487, P=0.034], but lower incidence of jaundice [81%(25/31) vs 98%(63/64),χ2=9.686,P=0.002], less proportion of presentation of jaundice within 24 h after birth [29% (9/31) vs 64%(41/64),χ2=10.279,P=0.001] and lower positive rate of direct antiglobulin test [39%(12/31) vs 100%(64/64), Fisher exact test,P=0.000] were shown in HDN due to anti-M. No significant difference was found in the incidences of hyperbilirubinemia [58%(18/31) vs 66%(42/64),χ2=0.513], severe hyperbilirubinemia [23%(7/31) vs 36%(23/64),χ2=1.724], anemia [81%(25/31) vs 89%(57/64),χ2=1.253] and severe anemia [29%(9/31) vs 34%(22/64),χ2=0.271] between HDN due to anti-M and Rh hemolytic babies (allP>0.05).ConclusionsHDN due to anti-M and Rhesus hemolytic disease can cause severe pathological jaundice and/or anemia in newborns. Indirect antiglobulin test should be offered when direct antiglobulin test is negative which is helpful in the diagnosis of HDN due to anti-M.

BACKGROUNDBisphosphonates have been used to treat many bone diseases in clinic. Bisphosphonates have also been proven useful in the management of bone metastasis in patients with breast and prostate carcinoma as demonstrated in a number of trials in vitro and in vivo, but, it is little known that the effect of bisphosphonates on lung cancer, one of the most common bone metastatic malignant tumors. This study is to investigate the effect of several bisphosphonates on inhibiting proliferation of different lung cancer cell lines in vitro, and to validate whether this inhibitive effect is comprehensive or selective.
METHODSThe cytotoxic effect of bisphosphonates on lung cancer cells and human normal liver cells was determined by sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay.
RESULTSAfter incubation of lung cancer cells with bisphosphonates for 72h, the proliferation was inhibited in different degrees. The inhibiting activity of medronate (MDP) was the lowest, while the activity of ibandronate and incadronate (YM175) was between MDP and alendronate. The effects of bisphosphonates on human normal liver cells were different. The toxicity of MDP, ibandronate and YM175 was low, while alendronate had high toxicity. The sensitivity of lung cancer cells to bisphosphonates was also different. The sensitivity of H446 and SPC-A1 was comparatively lower, while H460 and A549 were more sensitive.
CONCLUSIONSBisphosphonates can inhibit the proliferation of lung cancer cells and human normal liver cells in different degrees. The inhibiting effect is associated with the kind and concentration of bisphosphonates, and also the kind of lung cancer cells.
