Objective To investigate the effects of different anesthesia methods on immunity in patients underwent radical resection of rectal carcinoma.Methods 82 patients underwent radical resection of rectal carcinoma were divided into two groups,each group had 41 cases.A group received total intravenous anesthesia while B group received total intravenous anesthesia combined with eqidural anesthesia.CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+,CD3+HLA-DR+and NK cells were inspected before induction of anesthesia(T0),2 h after skin incision(T1),2 h(T2) and 24 h(T3) after the end of operation.The T-lymphocyte subsets,activated T cells and NK cells were measured by flow cytometry. Visual analogue scale(VAS) was observed at T2 and T3.Results The VAS score of T2,T3 in A group[(3.86 ± 0.46)points,(3.62 ±0.26)points]were higher than those in B group[(1.67 ±0.57)points,(1.94 ±0.42)points] (all P<0.05).The percentages of CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+,CD3+HLA-DR+and NK cells of T1,T2,T3 were lower than those of T0 in A group(all P<0.05);The percentages of CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+,CD3+HLA-DR+and NK cells of T1, T2 were lower than those of T0 in B group ( all P <0.05 );The percentages of CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+, CD3+HLA-DR+ and NK cells of T1, T2, T3 in A group were lower than those in B group ( all P <0.05 ). Conclusion Total intravenous anesthesia combined with eqidural anesthesia produces less immune suppression than total intravenous anesthesia.

Selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) is a class of estrogen-like non-steroid compounds that are able to bind to steroid hormone receptors .They can act as estrogen receptor agonist or antagonist depending on the target tissue and hormonal environment .Additionally , SERMs play an antioxidant role by scavenging oxygen free redicals , inhibiting lipid peroxidation , adjusting the level of NO and NOS , inhibiting mitochondrial permeability transition , improving the metabolism of free fatty acids in the mitochon-drial and regulating non-genomic transcription pathway .

SUMMARY Pheochromocytomaisrareinpregn’ancy.Clinicalfeaturesofacaseofpheochromocytoma during pregnancy in the Peking University People’s Hospital was investigated and the literature reviewed to discuss the diagnosis and treatment of this disease.The patient manifested with hypertension and pro-teinuria,who was easily misdiagnosed with gestational hypertension disease.When she was transferred to our hospital,the symptoms such as,paroxysmal palpitation,dizziness,vomiting were noticed,and the possibility of pheochromocytoma was considered due to the accompanying abdominal mass.An emergent cesarean section was performed successfully due to preterm labor during the treatment of the disease.Af-ter the delivery the drug preparation continued.And the laparoscopic resection of pheochromocytoma pro-ceeded when the blood pressure was steady.The patient recovered fully after the surgery.The final diag-nosis of pheochromocytoma was confirmed with the pathology.Its diagnosis and treatment experiences could improve our understanding and treatment of secondary hypertension due to pheochromocytoma in pregnancy.

Objective: To study the effects of deguelin on proliferation and apoptosis of human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and on phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt) signaling pathway. Methods: After treatment with 0, 1, 5, 10, 15 and 20 μmol/L of deguelin for 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours, the proliferation inhibition rate of MCF-7 cells was measured by cell counting kit-8 assay. Apoptosis rate of MCF-7 cells was detected with Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate/propidium iodide double staining by flow cytometry and the apoptotic morphology was observed under a transmission electron microscope. After treatment with 0, 1 and 5 μmol/L of deguelin for 6 hours, 5 proteins involved in the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway were examined by Western blot analysis. Results: Deguelin at doses of 5, 10, 15 and 20 μmol/L inhibited the proliferation of MCF-7 cells at 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours. There was a significant difference in each group compared with the control group (P<0.01). The inhibitory effect was more marked with increasing concentration and duration of treatment. There were statistical differences (P<0.05) among 5, 10, 15 and 20 μmol/L groups. However, 1 μmol/L of deguelin had no obvious effects on the proliferation of MCF-7 cells at 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours, showing no significant difference compared with control group (P>0.05). Deguelin at doses of 5, 10, 15 and 20 μmol/L induced apoptosis of MCF-7 cells at 6 hours. There were significant differences (P<0.01) in the early and late apoptosis rate between the treated groups and the control group. The typical apoptotic MCF-7 cells were observed under the transmission electron microscopy. However, 1 μmol/L of deguelin had no apparent effect in inducing apoptosis of MCF-7 cells at 6 hours. After treatment with 5 μmol/L of deguelin for 6 hours the expression of phosphorylated phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) (Ser380), phosphorylated 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1) (Ser241), phosphorylated Akt (Thr308) and phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) (Ser9) proteins were significantly reduced in MCF-7 cells, while there was no significant change in the expression of total Akt protein. However, after treatment with 1 μmol/L of deguelin for 6 hours, there was no apparent change in the expression of these 5 proteins. Conclusion: Deguelin can inhibit the phosphorylation of GSK-3β (Ser9) via inhibition of the phosphorylation of PTEN (Ser380) and PDK1 (Ser241) pathway, thus inducing apoptosis and inhibiting proliferation of MCF-7 cells.

Objective:Investigate the relation between the phosphorylation of FOXO1 and the apoptosis and the proliferation of lymphoma cells and to clarify its specific mechanism.Methods:The lymphoma cells Namalwa and Jurkat were treated with PI3K inhibitor wort mannin or etoposide or Wortmannin plus etoposide for different times-pan and at different concentration.The inhibition rates for cell growth of lymphoma cells were examined by XTT assay.Apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry.The expressions of p-Akt,p-FOXO1,FOXO1 and Bim were determined by Western blot analysis.Results:Wortmannin induced apoptosis of Jurkat cells and Namalwa cells and inhibited their survival effectively.The growth inhibition rate and the apoptosis rate of lymphoma cells induced by Wortmannin plus etoposide were higher than those induced by etoposide alone.After treated with Wortmannin,phosphorylation of FOXO1 remarkably reduced and bim markedly increased.Conclusion:The dephosphorylation of FOXO1 inhibits proliferation of Jurkat cells and Namalwa cells,promotes their apoptosis and enhanced the sensitivity of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma cells to etoposide.Bim activated by FOXO1 promotes cell apoptosis.

Objective:To establish a method for isolating tumor infiltrating dendritic cells(TIDC)from mice models of Lewis lung cancer by positive selection using anti-CD11c magnetic beads.Methods:A total of 1.0?10~6 Lewis lung cancer cells were subcutaneously injected into a C57BL/6 mice at the lateral abdominal wall to establish the mouse model of lung cancer.TIDC were isolated positively using anti-mouse CD11c magnetic beads;they were labeled by anti-mouse CD11c,and then the purity of the isolated cells was tested by FACScan flow cytometer.The cells were also double labeled by PE-conjugated MHC-ⅡmAb and FITC-conjugated CD83 mAb or FITC-conjugated CD86 mAb to analyze the phenotype of cells by FACScan flow cytometer.Results:The positive selection using anti-CD11 c magnetic beads isolated(1.73?0.31)?10~6 TIDC from each gram of Lewis lung cancer tissue,which accounted for(2.18?0.29)%of the cells in the tumor tissues.The purity of TIDC was 96.49%.Electron microscope showed that the isolated TIDC had the typical character of DC cells.The positive rates of MHC-Ⅱ,CD83 and CD86 molecules in TIDC surface were(51.25?4.21)%, (3.48?0.34)%and(3.07?0.65)%,respectively.Conclusion:The positive selection using anti-CD11c magnetic beads is highly effective,simple,and economic,and is worth popularizing.

Objective To investigate the change of gamma-aminobutyric acid A (GABAA) receptor α1 subunit mRNA expression in nitroglycerin induced migraine rat model,thus suggesting the relationship between GABAA receptor and migraine.Methods Thirty adult female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into control group,migraine model group,sodium valproate-treated group,each of the last 2 groups was divided into the attacking group and intermission group.The model of migraine was established using Cristina method,once a week for 5 weeks.After the second injection,rats in sodium valproate-treated group were given sodium valproate(0.5 g/L,10 ml/kg) everyday,and those in control group and model group were given normal saline solution(10 ml/kg).After the fifth injection,at the second hour(attacking groups) or the fourth day(intermission groups and control group),reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression level of GABAA receptor α1 mRNA in brainstem and trigeminal ganglion.Results The expression level of GABAA receptor α1 mRNA in modeling attacking group(1.50 ±0.13) was higher than any other group(control group:1.01 ±0.24,modeling intermission group:1.04 ±0.10,sodium valproate-treated attacking group:0.99 ± 0.22,sodium valproate-treated intermission group:0.72 ± 0.03),and it was significantly higher than modeling intermission group(x2 =9.490,P =0.009).There was no statistical difference between modeling group and any other group,and compared with control group,there was no statistical difference in sodium valproate-treated attacking group or intermission group.Conclusion The pathogenesis of migraine may be related to the expression level of GABAA receptor α1 mRNA.
