Pulmonary fibrosis is a group of chronic lung diseases caused by various factors and characterized by chronic inflammations,lung tissue structure damage,increase of pulmonary interstitial collagen and massive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM). Because of its complicated etiology, there is no effective treatment currently. Recent studies showed that the activation of sphingolipids signaling and pulmonary fibrosis were closely related. This paper describes the composition and function of sphingolipids signaling pathway and its effect on fibrosis in order to provide new ideas about further study of the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis and methods of prevention.

Objective To evaluate the expression of epidermal growth factor-like domain 7 (Egfl7) in atherosclerotic plaques and effects of its small interference RNA (siRNA) on angiogenesis gene expression in human endothelial cell line (HUVEC). MethodsEgfl7 expression in atheroscleroticplaquesweredetectedinhumaniliacarteryandmousearteriaeusing immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence stainings.The siRNA targeting Egfl7 was transfected into HUVEC by lipofectamine with non-transfected cells and unconcerned siRNA as controls.At 0 h,12 h,24 h and 48 h after intervention,the levels of mRNA and protein of Egf17,vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),platelet derived growth factor-A (PDGF-A),platelet derived growth factor-B (PDGF-B),vascular cell adhesion molecule(VCAM) and intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)were measured by RT-PCR and Western blotting,respectively. ResultsThe expressions of Egfl7 in human iliac artery and mouse arteriae were increased.The expressions of Egfl7 in HUVEC at the levels of mRNA were[(0.14±0.02),(0.09±0.01),(0.02±0.01)]and the levels of protein[(0.71±0.11),(0.39±0.09),(0.07±0.01)]at 12 h,24 h and 48 h after siRNA intervention,respectively,which were decreased as compared with 0 h intervention [(0.31 ±0.05) and (0.93±0.08) ].Other genes such as VEGF,PDGF-A and PDGF-B were reduced or silenced at the levels of protein and mRNA in HUVEC with siRNA longer interventions(all P<0.05).ConclusionsThe expression of Egfl7 in atherosclerotic plaques is increased.The siRNA inhibiting Egfl7 gene expression results in silence of other factors involved in angiogenesis.

AIM:To investigate the effect of tumor-suppressor RUNX3 on the transcription of apoptosis-related genes bcl-2,bax,caspase-3,caspase-8,caspase-9 in human gastric carcinoma cells BGC823,and to reveal the apoptosis molecular mechanism promoted by RUNX3. METHODS:The eukaryotic expression vector of human Runx3 gene pcDNA3.1-Runx3 was constructed. pcDNA3.1-Runx3 and blank vector pcDNA3.1 were transfected into BGC823 cells,respectively. After 48 h,the total mRNA and protein were acquired and the expression level of Runx3 was determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Then,the mRNA and protein expression of bcl-2,bax,caspase-3,caspase-8 and caspase-9 was determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting. ?-actin was used as a control. RESULTS:The eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1-Runx3 was constructed successfully and transfected into BGC823 cells. RT-PCR and Western blotting confirmed that RUNX3 level was higher in pcDNA3.1-Runx3 transfected BGC823 cells than that in blank vector-transfected cells (P

Objective To evaluate the relevant causes of neurologic complications following liver transplantation.Methods 155 adult patients (131 males, 24 females) who received liver transplantation for the first time at Tongji Hospital between January 2005 and September 2009 were identified.Case notes were reviewed and demographic data, details of the liver disease, neurologic complications, MELD score and discharge information were recorded.Results Neurologic complications occurred following 36 transplants (23.2 %), The complications included mental symptoms in 15 cases (41.7 %), disorder of consciousness and action in 9 cases (25 %), and coma in 12 cases (33.3 %).Twelve percent patients with liver cancer experienced a neurologic complication, which was lower than for other transplant indications, like acute and chronic hepatic failure because of HBV infection (33.3 %, P<0.01), inborn/metabolic disease (40 %, P<0.05), and HCV Infection (25 %, P = 0.36).Patients who experienced a neurologic problem had significantly higher MELD score (for non-cancer patients:22.93 ± 8.21; for cancer patients:17 ± 5.4) than the other Patients (for non-cancer patients:18.33 + 8.47, P<0.05; for cancer patients:13 ±3.4, P<0.01).The rate of infection (36.1 %) and mortality (30.5 %) were significantly higher in patients with neurologic complications (P<0.01).The levels of ALT, TBil, ALB, PT and the concentrations of serum sodium and chlorine had no impact on neurologic complications.Conclusion Neurologic complications are common in liver transplant recipients.These complications are related to primary disease and liver function before the operation, and increase the rate of infection and mortality.

AIM:To establish the gastric cancerous multidrug resistance cell stain BGC823/5-FU and investigate the relationship between the resistance and the expression of apoptosis related protein Survivin, Bcl-2, Bax and caspase-3. METHODS: Human gastric cancer cell line BGC823 was induced into MDR cell line by intermittent administration of high dose of 5-FU. MTT assay was used to detect the sensitivity of these MDR cells to some chemotherapeutic agents. Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression of P-glucoprotein and the accumulative value of intracellular daunorubicin (DNR) in these MDR cells. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of Survivin, Bcl-2, Bax and caspase-3. RESULTS: The resistance cell stain BGC823/5-FU was established, which possessed the ability of 10.82 fold resistance to 5-FU and cross-resistance to adriamycin, mitomycin C and cisplatin. The expression of P-glucoprotein was higher in BGC823/5-FU cells than that in BGC823 cells, while the accumulative value of intracellular DNR was decreased in BGC823/5-FU cells. Compared with its parent cells, expressions of Bax and caspase-3 in BGC823/5-FU cells were significantly down-regulated, surviving and Bcl-2 were upregulated in BGC823/5-FU cells. CONCLUSION: Gastric cancer cell line BGC823 has been induced into MDR cell line BGC823/5-FU. P-glucoprotein, Survivin, Bcl-2/Bax ratio and caspase-3 may play an important role in MDR of BGC823/5-FU cells.

ObjectiveThis paper analyzed the punishment situation of unlicensed medical practice in recent 7 years in Jinshan District of Shanghai, then suggested the countermeasures to prevent and combat unlicensed medical practice in the future. MethodsA total of 190 cases of unlicensed medical practice from 2016 to 2022 were investigated. The basic situation of the punishment,legal basis,subject distribution,clue source and individual characteristics were analyzed. ResultsThe case-filing number of unlicensed medical practice showed a decreasing trend,but the amount of fines increased obviously. The clues of investigation and punishment of unlicensed medicine practice were mainly found by inspection(32.11%) and transferred from other departments(28.42%), while the number of complaints and clues reported from grassroots increased year by year. Medical and dental were the two major unlicensed practice,accounting for 35.79% and 33.16%, respectively. In addition, unlicensed medical cosmetology practice was increasing year by year. 78.62% of the unlicensed medical practioners are immigrants, 62.76% of them aged between 31 and 50 years old, among them 70.34% are men, and 62.76% of them have a fixed place. ConclusionThough the prevention and crack-down on unlicensed medical practice has achieved significant achievements,it is still necessary to enhance the responsibility of local administration,strengthen the inspection,investigate and deal with cases jointly by multiple departments,and implement the comprehensive supervision mechanism of the health care industry.
