Extranodal nasal type NK/T cell lymphoma (ENKTL) is a highly aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma.Due to its low occurrence even in prevalent areas,there has been no large sample randomized controlled clinical trials.Therefore,no standard therapeutic strategy is currently identified in this disease.Tumor cells are insensitive to conventional anthracyclines-containing chemotherapy because of high expression of multi-drug resistant gene 1.Regimens that incorporate the use of L-asparaginase or gemcitabine result in substantial improvements in overall response rate and are promising treatment for ENKTL.Targeted therapy,immunomodulatory therapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are still under research.

Objective To study the effect of combining recombinet interferon α -2b gel and loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) to treat cervical intraepithehal neoplasia (CIN). Methods Prospective, randomly and control study was progressed in 80 patients with CIN Ⅱ-Ⅲ. Before carrying out LEEP, all women were performed high-risk HPV DNA detection by the method of HC2. Among them, forty women were. assigned to be the study group, in which the patients were added to use recombinet interferon α -2b gel for three courses of treatment before and after LEEP, the other forty women who carried out LEEP simply were assigned to be the control group. All patients were examined by hquid-based thinprep cytology test (TCT) and colposcopic site-specific biopsies to doubtful focus of infection in the 3rd, 6th, 9th and 12th month after treatment, and judged the effect by using HC2 in the 6th and 12th month after treatment. Results Eighty patients were not detected residue and recidivafion of CIN diagnosed by coiposcopic site-specific biopsies to doubtful focus of infection. In the study group, 3 women were abnormal detected by TCT, 37 women were negative detected by HC2, the negative rate was 92.5% when LEEP ended 6 months. The cure rate was 100.0% when LEEP ended 12 months. In the control group, 21 women were abnormal detected by TCT, 19 women were negative detected by HC2, the negative rate was 47.5% when LEEP ended 6 months, 8 women were negative detected by TCT, 25 women were negative detected by HC2, the cure rate was 62.5% when LEEP ended 12 months.In the 6th and 12th month after LEEP, the difference was distinguished in the cure rate between two groups. Conclusions There is double interrupted effects by combining recombinets interferon α -2b gel and LEEP to treat CIN. It can raise the one-time cure rate of the patients with CIN.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathlogic characteristic, diagnosis and histogenesis of pancreatic solid-pseudopapillary tumors ( SPPT) . Methods Combined with relevant literature, the clinical history, histopathological features and immunohistochemi-cal characteristics were analyzed in 11 cases of SPPT. Results There were 10 female patients and only 1 male in total 11 cases, aged from1 7 to 60 years (mean 33). The sizes of tumors were from 3. 2 to 10. 0 cm. Histologically, they were composed of papillary and microcysticsolid structures. Pseudopapillary with a fibrovascular core was remarkable. Immunohistochemically, the tumors expressed EMA (1/11), vimentin (10/11), NSE (11/11), Syn (7/11), CgA (1/11), CD56 (11/11), CD10 (11/11), PR (9/11), CD99 (9/11),α-AT (11/11),β-catenin (11/11), E-cadherin (11/11), Cyclin D1 (11/11), c-Myc (11/11). 6 patients were followed up for a period of 20 to 112 months, and they were all alive and had no recurrence and metastasis. Conclusions SPPT is a tumor with low malignancy of the pancreas that most frequently affect young females. SPPT may be derived from multipotent stem cells and closely related withβ-catenin signaling pathway. Pathological morphology and immunohistochemistry are very important to the diag-nosis and differential diagnosis of SPPT.

Objective To study the protective effects of the coronary collateral circulation to ischemic myocardial regional function with coronary artery stenosis≥75%using 2D-strain technique.Methods Two-dimensional images of apical four-,two-chambers,long-axis views and LV short-axis views were obtained in 121 patients.According to the results of coronary angiogram,all the 121 patients were divided into 3 groups:group 1,with normal coronary artery;group 2,with stenosis≥75%in≥1 main coronary artery involved right coronary artery,left anterior descending branch and left circumflex branch and with the presence of coronary collateral circulation(CCC);group 3,with stenosis≥75% in≥1 main coronary artery but with no presence of CCC.The segments' systolic peak strain(Sps),strain rate (SRs),end systolic strain (Yes),early diastolic strain rate (SRe) and late diastolic strain rate (SRa) in longitudinal (L),radial (R),circumficial (C) directions and the rotation (Rot),rotation rate were analyzed with EchoPAC offline software.Results Compared with 1 group,LSps,LSes,LSRs,LSRa,RSRe,RSRa,CSRe,Rotsre,Rotsra of 2 group,LSps,LSes,LSRs,LSRa,LSRe,RSes,RSRs,RSRe,RSRa,CSps,CSes,CSRs,CSRe,CSRs,Rotps,Rotsrs,Rotsre,Rotsra of 3 group decreased significantly (P＜0.05) ;compared with 2 group,LSps,LSes,LSRs,RSes,RSRs,CSps,CSes,CSRs,CSRa,Rotps,Rotsrs,Rotsre of 3 group decreased markedly (P＜0.05).Conclusions Coronary collateral circulation provides a protection effection to ischemic myocardial regional function.2D-strain technique may serve as an efficient method to assess ischemic myocardial regional function.

Objective To access the alterations of ischemic myocardial regional motion time caused by different extent of coronary artery stenosis by 2D-strain technique. Methods Two-dimensional images were acquired of the standard parasternal and apical (4-chamber,2-chamber and long-axis) views and short-axis views (mitral annulus, papillary muscle and apex) in 140 patients with coronary artery disease. All left ventricular segments were divided into 5 groups according to coronary stenosis seen on angiography:normal,25% -49% ,50% -74% ,75% -99% and 100%. The time to segmental systolic peak strain, systolic peak strain rate, end systolic strain, early diastolic peak strain rate and late diastolic peak strain rate in longitudinal, radial, circumferential directions and the systolic peak rotation, systolic peak rotation rate, early diastolic rotation rate,late diastolic rotation rate were analyzed with EchoPAC offline software. Results In longitudinal direction,compared with normal group,the time to early diastolic peak strain rate of segments with 75% - 99% coronary stenosis increased significantly, the time to systolic peak strain rate, early diastolic peak strain rate of segments with occluded artery were significantly delayed compared with the other 4 groups (P ＜0.05). In radial, circumferential directions, the time to systolic peak strain, systolic peak strain rate,late diastolic peak strain rate of segments with 25% - 49% was shorter than that of normal segments. Those indices for segments with 50% - 74% coronary stenosis were delayed compared with segments with 25% - 49% stenosis, however, those for segments with 75% - 99% coronary stenosis showed some improvement in the comparison with segments with 50% - 74% stenosis. All time indices for segments with occluded arteries were delayed ( P ＜0.05). About rotation, the time to the systolic peak rotation,systolic peak rotation rate,early diastolic peak rotation rate with 25% -49% stenosis was shorter than those of normal segments, the time to systolic peak rotation and early diastolic peak rotation rate for segments with 75% - 99% stenosis improved compared with segments with 50% - 74% stenosis.Conclusions 25% -49% coronary stenosis could lead to alterations of peak myocardial systole and diastole motion time in radial,circumferential and rotation directions,and ≥75% coronary stenosis caused the all 4 directions motion delays. Also the time indices for segments with 75% - 99% coronary stenosis showed some improvement in the comparison with segments with 50% -74% coronary stenosis.

AIM: In order to explore the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC), an experimental colitis in mouse was induced by the hapten dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB), and the activity of leukocyte migration inhibitory factor (LMIF) was measured at the same time. METHODS: 67 BALB/c mice were randomly divided into control (60% ethanol) and DNCB groups. After they were sensitized by smearing 3.3% DNCB on the abdominal skin, they were challenged with DNCB at concentration of 0.1%, 0.2% and 0.4% respectively by instillation once a day. The weight, stool viscosity and hematochezia were observed and accumulated as disease active index (DAI) score. The pathological changes in colon tissue were judged macropathologically and by means of microscope. LMIF activity was determined by the absorbance (A) of migrated leukocytes. RESULTS: Compared to control group, the increases in DAI accumulate score, pathologic score, and LMIF activity in DNCB groups were observed. CONCLUSION: Mouse colitis was induced by DNCB, which was accompanied by an increase in LMIF activity. [

AIM: To investigate the signal transduction mechanism of Chlamydia pneumoniae (Cpn) in down-regulating the expression of ATP binding cassette A1 (ABCA1) and ATP binding cassette G1 (ABCG1),the key molecules in cholesterol efflux and atherogenesis,from THP-1-derived macrophages. METHODS: Cpn was propagated in Hep-2 cells. THP-1 monocytes were induced into macrophages by 160 nmol/L phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) for 48 h,and were randomly allocated into 4 groups to incubate continually: control group,50 mg/L low density lipoprotein (LDL); Cpn infection group,Cpn (1×10~6 IFU) and 50 mg/L LDL; Cpn and SP600125 (a special JNK inhibiter) group,THP-1 macrophages were previously treated with different concentrations (1-20 μmol/L) of SP600125 for 1 h,and then infected with Cpn (1×10~6 IFU) and 50 mg/L LDL; SP600125 group,SP600125(20 μmol/L)and 50 mg/L LDL. The expressions of ABCA1/ABCG1 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) from each group were detected then. The cholesterol efflux was detected by enzyme-fluorescence. The expressions of ABCA1/ABCG1 and PPARγ mRNA and protein were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting,respectively. RESULTS: Cpn not only down-regulated the ABCA1/ABCG1 expression,but also down-regulated the expression of PPARγ,which regulated the ABCA1/ABCG1 genes transcriptions. However,the mentioned effects of Cpn infection were restrained by the special JNK inhibitor SP600125 in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION: Chlamydia pneumoniae may down-regulate ABCA1/ABCG1 expression from THP-1-derived macrophages via JNK-PPARγ signal transduction pathway.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Chlamydia pneumoniae(Cpn) on SR-A1 and CD36 expression in THP-1-derived macrophages and role of c-Jun NH_2-terminal signal transduction pathway in the process.Methods:Cpn was propagated in Hep-2 cells.THP-1 monocytes were induced into macrophages by 160 nmol/L phorbol myristate acetate(PMA)for 48h,and were randomly allocated into four groups to be incubated continually: control group;Cpn infection group;Cpn and SP600125(a JNK inhibiter)group and SP600125 group.Lipid droplets in cytoplasm were observed by oil red O staining.The contents of intracellular cholesterol ester were detected by enzyme-fluorescence.The expression of SR-A1 and CD36mRNA and protein were determined by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. Results:THP-1-derived macrophages infected with Cpn resulted in large accumulation of lipid droplets and foam cell formation when co-cultured with LDL.Meanwhile,the expression of SR-A1 mRNA and protein were up-regulated by Cpn infection (P<0.05).However,the expressions of CD36 mRNA and protein in THP-1-derived macrophages infected with Cpn were unchanged.Moreover,the up-regulation of SR-A1 and foam cell formation induced by Cpn could be restrained by the JNK inhibiter SP600125 in a dose-dependent manner,and SP600125 had little impact on the expression of CD36 in THP-1-derived macrophages infected with Cpn.Conclusion:The up-regulation of SR-A1 but not CD36 expression is involved in mechanisms of Cpn inducing foam cell formation.And Chlamydia pneumoniae up-regulates the expression of SR-A1 via the JNK signal transduction pathway.This may be a novel mechanism for the foam cell formation induced by Cpn.
