1.Bβ Fibrinogen Gene Polymorphisms and Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2008;16(12):943-946
The increased level of fibrinogen (Fg) is an independent factor that resulting in the occurrence of ischemic cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. The Fg level is correlated with heredity, age, sex, obesity, lipid, smoke, inflammation and infection, and the pathogenic effect of genetic factor has been increasingly receiving attention. In recent years, more than 10 FgBβ gene polymorphisms have been reported, among them, - 148C/T, - 455G/A, and - 854G/A are considered to be significantly correlated with the increased level of Fg, and may be one of the most key factors in influencing the genetic risk factors of the occurrence of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.
2.Report on recent insight into molecular genetic alterations and target therapy in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia in the 54th ASH annual meeting
Journal of Leukemia & Lymphoma 2013;22(1):1-3,7
T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is a highly aggressive hematologic malignancy associated with poor prognosis.Increasing data regarding to alteration of gene expression signatures of oncogenes and tumor suppressors involved in the pathogenesis of T-ALL and the major mechanisms of T-cell transformation may contribute to define the biological markers for treatment response and prognosis,and has important clinical implications.In this review,advance knowledge concerning the characteristics of early T-cell precursor ALL,the alteration of TAL1 and NOTCH1 related genes and target inhibiton effects based on these alterations from 2012 the 54th ASH annual meeting ars summarized.

ObjectiveTo systematically review the curative effect and safety of compound realgar and natural indigo tablet (CRNIT) therapy in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). MethodsThe clinical data of randomized trials on SinoMed, CNKI, VIP,WANFANG DATA,CBA, PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library were searched by internet,in addition to manual retrieval and collecting all published literatures randomized controlled trials (RCT) about CRNIT therapy in APL home and abroad.Retrieval line was up to March 2011. According to the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria, screening all literatures and evaluating their qualities. The rate of complete remission (CR), time to CR, recurrence rate, mortality, rate of adverse reaction and so on were used as evaluation indicators for meta-analysis by RevMan 5.1.Results Data from six RCTs involving 391 APL patients,including 2 RCTs about comparison of CRNIT and Arsenic Trioxide (ATO), 4 RCTs about comparison of CRNIT and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) (including adding 1 RCT about comparison of CRNIT + ATRA and ATRA). Time to CR: CRNIT was longer than ATRA and ATO (WMD = 3.14, 95 % CI 0.99-5.29, P= 0.004). Headache incidence: CRNIT was lower than ATRA (OR = 0.10, 95 % CI 0.02-0.45, P = 0.003). 5-year disease-free survival rate: CRNIT was better than ATRA (OR = 7.22, 95 % CI 1.40-37.25, P = 0.02). There were no statistical significance in the rest of the Meta-analysis results.ConclusionThe time to CR of CRNIT is longer than that of ATRA and ATO.The short-term effect of CRNIT is similar to that of ATRA and ATO.The 5-year disease-free survival rate of CRNIRT may be higher than that of ATRA.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(AHSCT)on hematological malignancies and solid tumors.Methods Twenty patients with age from 18 to 50 years received AHSCT.Two or 3 of following agents,Cytarabine(Ara-C)3~4 g/m2,Cyclophosphamide(CTX)4~6 g/m2,Etoposide(VP-16)0.5~1.0 g/m2,Semustine(me-CCNU)300 mg/m2,Melphalan(Mel)140 mg/m2,Thiotep a(TSPA)600 mg/m2,Carboplatin(CBP)1.0 g/m2,Busulfan 16mg/kg,were combined as conditioning regimen in all patients.Among them 2 patients with ALL accepted additional total body irradiation(TBI).Results All the patients have reconstituted bone marrow hematopoiesis after transplantation.None of them had the transplantation-related mortality.Among 20 patients with CML and malignant lymphoma,15 achieved disease-free survival(DFS)with a median survival time of 39.5(2~109)months.Conclusion AHSCT might represent an effective approach to the treatment of some patients with chemosensitive solid tumor who are complete remission or part remission.It is suggested that the patients have got a obvious survival benefit from AHSCT.

Objective To observe the blood supply of the extra hepatic duct and prevent the ischemia of extra hepatic duct after liver transplantation. Methods Microdissection for the main arteries of extra hepatic duct in 15 samples was performed. Results The main arteries supplying extra hepatic duct included cystic artery’s branches and posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal artery’s branches. There were 1~3 cystic artery’s branches and 3~5 posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal artery’s branches to supply extra hepatic duct. Conclusion The posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal artery is one of the main arteries supplying extra hepatic duct. In orthotopic liver transplantation, this artery is considered to preserve.

Objective To evaluate the role of renal cell apoptosis in acute kidney injury (AKI) induced by sepsis in mice. Methods Forty-five male C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned into 3 groups ( n = 15 each):sham operation group (group S), cecum ligation and puncture group (group CLP) and CLP + caspase-3 inhibitor Ac-DEVD-CHO group (group CI). Intra-abdominal infection was induced by CLP. Ac-DEVD-CHO 4 μg/g was infused subcutaneously 30 min before CLP in group CI. Five mice in each group were sacrificed after collection of blood samples at 6, 12 and 24 h after CLP. The levels of serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (Cr)were detected. The apoptosis rate and expression of caspase-3 protein and caspase-3 mRNA were determined.Pathological changes in renal tissues were observed with light microscope. Results The serum BUN and Cr concentratiors, apoptosis rate and expression of caspase-3 mRNA and caspase-3 protein were significantly higher in group CLP than in group S, but lower in group CI than in group CLP ( P < 0.05). Light microscopic examination showed that the pathologic changes induced by Ac-DEVD-CHO were less severe in group CI than in group CLP.Conclusion The renal cell apoptosis is one of the mechanism of AKI induced by sepsis.

In the present study, an ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled with time-of-fight mass spectrometry (UPLC-TOF/MS) based chemical profiling approach was used to evaluate chemical constitution between co-decoction and mixed decoction of ginseng and Radix Aconiti Praeparata. Two different kinds of decoctions, namely co-decoction of ginseng and Radix Aconiti Praeparata: water extract of mixed two herbs, and mixed decoction of ginseng and Radix Aconiti Praeparata: mixed water extract of each individual herbs, were prepared. Batches of these two kinds of decoction samples were subjected to UPLC-TOF/MS analysis. The datasets of t(R) m/z pairs, ion intensities and sample codes were processed with supervised partial least squared discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) to holistically compare the difference between these two decoction samples. Significant difference between the two decoction samples was showed in the results of positive ion mode. The contents of hypaconitine and deoxyaconitine decreased, while that of benzoylmesaconine, benzoylhypaconine and dehydrated benzoylmesaconine increased in the samples of co-decoction of ginseng and Radix Aconiti Praeparata. The content of diester-diterpenoid alkaloids decreased, while that of monoester-diterpenoid alkaloids increased, which is probably the basis of toxicity-attenuated action when combined ginseng with Radix Aconiti Praeparata.
