Objective To investigate the expression of caspase-3 in colon carcinoma,colon adenoma and normal colon mucosa and its clinical significance.Methods The expression of caspase-3 was detected with immunohistochemical EnVision in 60 cases of colon carcinoma,30 cases of colon adenoma and 30 cases of normal colon mucosa.Results The positive expression rates of caspase-3 in colon carcinoma,colon adenoma and normal colorn mucosa were 18.3%(11/60),50.0%(15/30),86.7%(26/30).There was significant difference among three groups(P<0.01).The expression of caspase-3 was closely related to Dukes clinical stage,differentiation degree,lymph node metastasis and the degree of infiltration(P<0.01).Conclusion The low expression of caspase-3 may play an important role in the carcinogenesis of colon carcinoma and it is involved in the metastasis and infiltration.

AIM:To investigate the effect of exogenous epidermal growth factor(EGF) on expression of EGFR and EGF mRNA of the injuried lung tissue of neonatal premature rats exposed to hyperoxia.METHODS:The neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats of 21-day gestational age model of hyperoxia induced lung injury were made by continually inhaling 95% oxygen.The model rats were divided into two groups randomly,the EGF trail group and the NS control group.The other rats were taken into the air control group.Each group was divided into three subsets:a(1-3 days),b(4-6 days) and c(1-6 days) according to different application times of EGF or NS.Rats in sub groups were executed and the lung tissues were removed at postnatal 3th,7th,14th day respectively.Using immunohistochemistry method,the expression of EGF-R of lung tissues in different groups was observed,and the expression of EGF mRNA was determined by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).RESULTS:The expression of EGF mRNA increased by degrees following the increasing postnatal days.Compared with the air control group,the expression of EGF-R and EGF mRNA increased in the hyperxia group at 7th day and 14th day.The expression of EGF-R increased in corresponding hyperxia NS control group at 14th day(P

Objective To investigate the correlation between degree of deeper infiltration of NPC on CT scan,prognosis and expression of P53 protein,in order to further recognize bilogical features of NPC.Methods Collect 70 NPC biopsy specimens,which had performed CT scan before radiotherapy and had detailed clinical records.The expression of P53 protein was examined by means of S-P immunohistochemical technique.The correlation between expression of P53 protein and peripheral deeper infiltration and prognosis was analysed in detailed.Results The results of these cases showed that the positive rate of over expression P53 were 68.57%,which had no relation with the histological types and pathological grades.The positive rate of P53 in Ⅱ、Ⅲ types had a higher positive rate than that of the Ⅰ type of NPC.Expression of P53 protein had no relation with neck lymph node metastasis,but had significant correlation with the size of metastatic lymph node,which is the positive rate of P53 in diameter of metastatic lymph node <4 cm was higher than that of diameter ≥4 cm.Expression of P53 had no relation with local recurrence and distant metastasis after radiotherapy.Conclusion With the tumor infiltrating the deeper layer of nasopharynx,the positive rate of P53 expression is more and more high,and degree of malignant is increasing.The three types on CT scan represents the biological features of NPC.

Objective To explore predictive value of endometrial receptivity and pregnancy outcome by hysteroscopy examination at the phase of implantation window in unexplained infertile women.Methods From Oct.2007 to Mar.2009,93 unexplained infertile women underwent hysteroscopy examination at 7-9 days after a spontaneous ovulation in Family Planning Research Institute of Guangdong Province.According to the endometrial glandular openings and vascular shape,79 cases without pathological endometrial changes were divided into 60 cases in good endometrium group and 19 cases in poor endometrium group.The following clinical parameters were analyzed and compared between two groups,including endometrial configuration,thickness,secretion,the development and number of pinopodes,vascular distribution,and the level of sex hormone,leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and glycodelin in the uterine flushing,and pregnancy outcome.Results (1)There was no statistical difference in the level of serum estrogen and progesterone at the phase of implantation window,which were (518 ± 176)pmol/L,(40 ±20)nmol/L in good group and (513 ±244) ptnol/L,(37 ± 19) nmol/L in poor group (P<0.05).The endometrium thickness at periovulatroy and implantation window days (1.06 ±0.10)cm/(1.16 ± 0.08)cm in good group did not show significant difference with (0.93 ±0.12) cm /(1.02 ±0.10) cm in poor group (P>0.05).The proportion of type A,B and C endometrium at periovulatory days were 63% (12/19),37% (7/19) and 0 (0/19) in good group and 23% (14/60),77% (46/60) and 0 (0/60) in poor group.When compared with those of type A or B between two groups respectively,it all showed statistical difference (P<0.05).However,at phase of implantation window,endometrium configurations were all type B at both groups.(2)90% (17/19)of women in good group and 7% (4/60)of women in poor group showed normal endometrial secretion function,which showed significant differences (P< 0.01).(3)The percentage of fully developed pinopodes and abundant pinopodes [84% (16/19) and 90% (17/19)] in good group were significantly higher than 42% (25/60)and 57% (34/60) in poor group (P<0.05).(4) The level of CD_(34) expression and microvessel density[MVD; (40.1 ± 1.2) positive unit(PU) and(21.7 ±4.0)/high power field (HP)] in good group were significantly higher than(18.1 ± 1.3) PU and (8.5 ± 1.3)/HP in poor group (P< 0.01).(5)The level of LIF and glycodelin in uterine flushing [(72 ± 54)ng/L and (196 ±20)μg/L] in good group were significantly higher than (15±16) ng/L and (116 ±26) μg/L in poor group (P<0.05).(6) The rate of clinical pregnancy,spontaneous abortion and term delivery were 74% (14/19),0 (0/14) and 100% (14/14) in good group and 23% (14/60),14% (2/14) and 86% (12/14) in poor group,the rate of clinical pregnancy and term delivery in good group were significantly increased when compared with those in poor group (P<0.01).Conclusions Hysteroscopy examination at the phase of implantation window could reflect the development of glandular openings and vasculature.It is a preferable method to evaluate the endometrial receptivity and predict pregnancy outcome.

AIM: To investigate the effect of glycine on endotoxin and hypoxia-induced necrotizing exterocolitos (NEC) in rats. METHODS: In glycine+NEC group, twenty anesthetized and artificially ventilated rats received 1g/kg glycine (20%, iv). Five minutes later, the rats were treated with 2 mg/kg lipopolysaccharide (LPS). In control group (NS+NEC), twenty rats were treated with normal saline as a substitute for glycine. In all animals, FiO 2 was reduced after 90 min from 21% to 5% and ventilation continued until 180 min or death. At the end of the experiment, the samples of blood and intestine were obtained immediately. Serum TNF? was measured with ELISA, serum NO was determined by nitrate reductase. The histopathology of the necrotic lesions were categoried: grade Ⅰ, focal mild injury confined to villous tips; grade Ⅱ, partial loss of villi; grade Ⅲ, necrosis extending to submucosa; grade Ⅳ, transmural necrosis. RESULTS: The survival time [(159 25?22 78) min vs (138 75?19 05) min] was shorter in the NS+NEC group ( P
