Objective To explore the complications of augmentation mammoplasty by polyacrylamide hydrogel (PAHG) injection and their management.Methods Preoperatively,174 patients underwent breast ultrasound image,and some patients received magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to ascertain the distribution of injected PAHG.We used the periareolar incision and dissection extended to the subcutaneous tissue,mammary gland,and subgland space.We were able to suck most of the gel by the negative pressure machine and remove the abnormal breast tissue.The secondary breast deformity was repaired with subpectoral placement of silicone mammary implants (48 cases immediately,39 cases secondarily after 3-6 months) according to the individual situation.Results Following-up for 3 to 6 months,most of their symptoms were relieved after removal of the polyacrylamide hydrogel.In the patients who were performed with the implants augmentation mammoplasty,77 cases gained satisfactory results on the shape and texture of the breast (44.3％),and 10 cases were not satisfied with texture of the breast (5.7％).79 cases appeared breast atrophy or flat chest (45.4％).The severe breast deformities occurred in 8 cases (4.6％).Conclusions PAHG should be removed with surgical operation as soon as possible.The open operative technique via periareolar incisions may be a better method for the patients.The breast reconstruction is performed with implants prosthesis for those who are suitable and willing after removal of PAHG.

Objective To explore the methods and significance of section of multiple fibroadeno mas of breast with better incision.Methods From may 2005 to December 2014,21 cases were per formed by removing multiple fibroadenomas of breast with a new incision.Preoperatively,the diag nostic work-up included clinical examination,breast ultrasonography and/or mammography.A new approach,for removing of multiple fibroadenomas of the breast with the incision in periareolar site,was used in our hospital.All palpable breast lumps were excised with this approach through which the fibroadenomas were removed as a whole unit.Then,the breast cavity were irrigated with normal saline solution,and strict haemostasis of the bed was done by electrocautery.If the resulted cavity was larger,interrupted sutures should be performed with the absorbable stitches;otherwise,it was unnecessary.The skin wound was sutured to the deepithelialized area with Vicryl 5-0 (Ethicon).Results There were 21 cases,who underwent surgery using the described technique through which 95 lumps (0.5 cm× 0.5 cm-6.0 cm× 5.0 cm) were removed and included in the study.All patients' resected tumor specimens were pathologically confirmed as fibroadenoma.No major complications were encountered in any of the patients.The incision was well concealed by the dome of the nipple and the areolar pigmented and corrugated skin.Both doctors and patients were satisfied with postoperative aesthetic effect of the incision scar.Conclusions The incision in periareolar site for excision of multiple fibroadenomatas results in minimal scarring and a better appearance than that can be achieved with traditional methods.This technique,which can improve the aesthetic outcome of breast surgery,should be performed when feasible.

AIM: To evaluate the expression of iNOS mRNA in different invasion ability colon carcinoma cell strains. METHODS: MTT was used to detect the growth and reproduction of colon cancer cell strain CW-2 and LS174T. RT-PCR and Northern blot were used to detect expression of iNOS mRNA in colon cancer. RESULTS: MTT growth curve displayed that colon cancer cell strain LS174T grew and reproduced faster than cell strain CW-2. RT-PCR showed that iNOS mRNA expressed strongly in CW-2 cell strain, while iNOS mRNA expressed weakly in LS174T cell strain. Northern blot detected that iNOS mRNA expressed obviously in CW-2 cell strain, but cell strain LS174T have no obvious iNOS mRNA expression. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) had no obvious effect on iNOS mRNA expression in CW-2 cell strain of colon cancer. CONCLUSIONS: ATRA has no obvious effect on iNOS mRNA expression. iNOS has a dual effect on tumor growth. In low-metastatic colon carcinoma CW-2, iNOS may exert a anti-tumor influence by cytotoxicity or inducing cell apoptosis. In high-metastatic colon cancer LS174T, iNOS produced low concentration of NO, which may be an important signal-transduction molecule for increasing blood supply and angiogenesis, which improve the growth, invasion and metastasis of tumor.

Objective: Combined detection of anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin ( anti-MCV ) antibodies, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide ( anti-CCP) antibodies and rheumatoid factor ( RF-IgM) levels to investigate the diagnostic value of anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin (anti-MCV) antibodies for rheumatoid arthritis(RA).Methods: A total of 359 patients with RA,128 patients with other rheumatic diseases and 90 healthy controls were involved.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA) was used to detect anti-MCV and anti-CCP, and dynamic immune nephelometry was applied to detect RF-IgM .The sensitivity and specificity were obtained from the experimental data.Results:The sensitivities of anti-MCV,anti-CCP and RF-IgM were 85.1%,76.7% and 82.7%in RA respectively.The specificities were 93.2%,95.1%and 80.1%respectively.Combined detection of anti-MCV and anti-CCP,the sensitivity decreased to 70.2%; but the specificity increased to 98.7%.The sensitivity reached to 89.5% with specificity 97.6%when the union of anti-MCV and anti-CCP positivity was used as criterion.Conclusion:Anti-MCV and anti-CCP are novel makers for RA diagnosis with high sensitivity and high specificity.Combination of anti-MCV and anti-CCP is more helpful for RA diagnosis.

Objective: The inhibition on the proliferation of colorectal carcinoma cell strain with different proliferative potential by ATRA was investigated in present study, which would benefit for the therapy of ATRA on colorectal carcinoma. Methods: The proliferation of LS174T and CW-2 colorectal carcinoma cell strain inhibited by ATRA was determined using cell observation, FACS and MTT methods. Results: The growth speed of LS174T cell strain was faster than that of CW-2. ATRA played a significant role on inhibiting the proliferation of LS174T and CW-2 cell strain and inducting the cell differetiation in vitro. Conclusions: ATRA could inhibit the growth of LS174T and CW-2 cell strain. ATRA could inhibit the proliferation of colorectal carcinoma cell and induce cell differentiation to some extent, which was correlated with the concentration of ATRA.

Abstract: Objective　To investigate the expression level and clinical significance of serum liver fibrosis-associated lncRNA1 (lnc-LFAR1) in patients with chronic hepatitis B cirrhosis, aiming to analyze its correlation with interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and liver function. Methods　Patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) cirrhosis and CHB diagnosed and treated in Dongguan City People's Hospital from March 2016 to December 2019 were selected and divided into the liver cirrhosis group (n=80) and the CHB group (n=80), and 80 healthy people with physical examination during the same period were selected as healthy group. The serum levels of lnc-LFAR1, interleukin-6 (IL-6), albumin (ALB), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and liver function indicators, including albumin (ALB) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were measured and analyzed. The correlation between serum lnc-LFAR1 expression level and IL-6, IL-1β was assessed, and the levels of lnc-LFAR1, IL-6, IL-1β, ALB and ALT were compared among patients with CHB cirrhosis of different Child-Pugh grades. Results The serum levels of lnc-LFAR1, IL-6, IL-1β and ALT in the patients with liver cirrhosis [(1.85± 0.62), (41.76±13.92) ng/mL, (7.78±1.95) pg/mL, (148.37±29.67) U/L] were higher than those in the CHB group [(1.42±0.47), (23.56± 7.85) ng/mL, (5.42±1.41) pg/mL, (87.59±17.52) U/L] and the healthy group [(1.01±0.34), (6.70±2.23) ng/mL, (3.13± 0.78) pg/mL, (15.44±3.10) U/L] (P<0.05), while the ALB levels (30.54±3.82) g/L were lower than those in the CHB group (37.27±4.34) g/L and the healthy group (45.26±5.66) g/L (P<0.05). Serum lnc-LFAR1, IL-6, IL-1β and ALT levels in the CHB group were higher than those in the healthy group (P<0.05), and ALB levels were lower than those in the healthy group (P<0.05); the serum levels of lnc-LFAR1, IL-6, IL-1β in patients with CHB cirrhosis were negatively correlated with ALB (P<0.05), and positively correlated with ALT (P<0.05); the serum expression level of lnc-LFAR1 in patients with CHB cirrhosis was positively correlated with IL-6 and IL-1β (r=0.598, 0.571, P<0.05); with the increase of Child-Pugh grade, the serum levels of lnc-LFAR1, IL-6, IL-1β, and ALT in patients with CHB cirrhosis gradually increased (P<0.05), and the level of ALB gradually decreased (P<0.05). Conclusions Serum lnc-LFAR1 expression level is higher in patients with CHB cirrhosis, which is obviously related to IL-6, IL-1β, ALB and ALT. Therefore, the evaluation of serum lnc-LFAR1 expression level is helpful in the clinical assessment of the condition of CHB cirrhosis patients.

Objective:To study the molecular mechanism for momordin in inducing apoptosis of multidrug-resistant human chronic leukemia K562/A02 cells. Methods:The growth inhibition value of K562/A02 cells was detected by CCK-8 method. Cell apoptosis was analyzed by Annexin Ⅴ flow cytometry (FCM) and cell morphological examination. FCM was also used in determining expression of P-glycoprotein, p53 protein, bcl-2 protein and caspase activity. Results:Momordin inhibited the proliferation of K562/A02 cells in a dose-dependent manner. It also induced cell apoptosis, reduced the expression of P-glycoprotein, p53 protein and bcl-2 protein, and increased caspase-3 and caspase-8 activity.Conclusion:Momordin reversed the inhibition of apoptosis in multidrug-resistant K562/A02 cells. The molecular mechanism may be related with down-regulation of expression of p53 protein, P-glycoprotein, and bcl-2 protein and up-regulation of caspase-3 and caspase-8 activities.

AIM: To explore the change of the expression of cell adhesion molecule CD_ 54 and CD_ 44 in erythroleukemic K562 apoptosis cells induced by momordin from momordica charantia seeds and study the effects of cell adhesion molecule CD_ 54 and CD_ 44 on cell apoptosis induced by momordin. METHODS: After the treatment of K562 cells with appropriated concentration momordin, CCK-8 test was employed to determine K562 cells growth; flow cytometry FACScan (FITC-Annexin V staining) and electron microscopy were used to detect apoptosis; The expression of CD_ 54 and CD_ 44 were examined by flow cytometry FACScan (FITC-CD_ 54 and PE-CD_ 44 staining). RESULTS: CCK-8 test showed K562 cells growth was significant inhibited by momordin; the apoptosis was detected by cell morphology and flow cytometry FACScan (FITC-Annexin V) in K562 cells after treatment by appropriated concentration momordin. The expressions of CD_ 54 and CD_ 44 in momordin treated K562 cells were 18.62 % and 1.32 % respectively, and in negative momordin treated K562 cells were 0.25 % and 0.17 % respectively, and momordin could up-expresses the protein of CD_ 54 18.37 % and CD_ 44 1.15 %. CONCLUSION: Momordin can markedly induce the K562 cell to apoptosis. The up-expressions of CD_ 54 exist in the process of apoptosis induced by momordin. The change of cell adhesion molecule maybe one of the key factors in the mechanisms of apoptosis induced by momordin, and its mechanism maybe involve in adhesion-dependent apoptosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and laboratory characteristics of lupus nephritis(LN) patients by detecting the anti-nucleosome antibodies, anti-C1q antibodies and anti-double stranded antibodies(anti-ds DNA), and to clarify the risk factors of LN in the patients with systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE),and the significance of three kinds of antibodies in diagnosis of LN.Methods:A total of 120 SLE patients were selected and divided into LN group(n=60) and non-LN group(n=60).The ANAS data of 120 patients were retrospectively analyzed,the levels of anti-C1q antibodies were measured.The clinical symptoms and laboratory data of the patients with positive anti-dsDNA,-nucleosome and-C1q antibodies (3-pos group)and negative three kinds of antibodies(non 3-pos group) were analyzed in LN group.Results:The positive rate of anti-C1q antibody of the patients in LN group (40.00%) was higher than that in non-LN group (21.67%) (χ2=4.728, P=0.03).The positive rate of anti-dsDNA antibody in LN group was 66.67%, and it was 46.67% in non-LN group;the positive rates of the patients had significant difference between two groups (χ2=4.887, P=0.027).The positive rate of anti-nucleosome antibody in LN group was 58.33%, and it was 40.00% in non-LN group;the positive rates of the patients had significant difference between two groups (χ2=4.034, P=0.045).The positive rates of U1-snRNP, SmD1 and other antibodies Jo-1, SSA/Ro60kD, SSA/Ro52kD, SSB, ScL-70, CENP-B,and P0 had no significant differences between two groups(P>0.05).The levels of C3 and C4 and hemoglobinin of the patients in 3-pos group were higher than those innon 3-pos group (P<0.05);the age,the levels of immunoglobulin protein and C-reactive protein (CRP), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), white blood cell (WBC) and platelet had no statistically significant differences between 3-pos and non 3-pos groups(P>0.05).The clinical symptoms were not statistically significant in 3-pos and non 3-pos groups (P>0.05).Conclusion:The anti-nucleosome, anti-C1q and anti-dsDNA antibodies are the risk factors of SLE complicated with LN;the positive antibodies can improve the diagnostic rate of LN.The 3-pos patients have more severe damage in complements and blood system with higher renal disease activities.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic values of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptides antibody ( anti-CCP ) and rheumatoid factor( RF) in rheumatoid arthritis( RA) ,and analyse the clinical relevance of prognosis,drug reaction and bone destruction between anti-CCP and RA.Methods: Serum anti-CCP was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA ) , and RF was detected by immune rate nephelometry.Results:The sensitivity and specificity of anti-CCP in RA were 83.0%and 96.7%,while the sensitivity and specificity of RF in RA were 76.0%and 70.0%.When joint detect anti-CCP and RF,with anti-CCP or RF positive as a positive determination,with anti-CCP and RF negative as a negative judgment,the combined sensitivity was 87.0%,higher than that of detection alone.The combined specificity was 98.3%, higher than that of single detection.There were big different concentrations of anti-CCP among RA patients before treatment, three months after treatment and six months after treatment.There were significant differences between bone erosion and non-bone erosion in RA patients.And the more serious joint damage,the higher the concentrations of anti-CCP.As for treatment,anti-CCP concentrations declined.Conclusion:Combined detection of anti-CCP and RF can significantly improve the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of RA.The concentration of anti-CCP can change with effective treatment,then dynamic monitoring can be used as study drug efficacy.At the same time,the level of anti-CCP in patients with RA can reflect the degree of bone erosion,and serious bone destruction who was poor treatment effect.
