Objective To study the bowel-cleansing efficacy, patient security and mucosal injury of low-volume PEG plus ascorbic acid regimen. Methods Five hundred patients referred for colonoscopy were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups. Group A received low-volume PEG regimen, Group B received sodium phosphate (NaP) regimen for bowel preparation. Patients of the two groups drank solution 5 h before colonoscopies, serum creatinine and electrolyte were monitored at 5 h and 3 h before colonoscopies. The bowel-cleansing efficacy was rated during colonoscopy. All mucosal injuries observed during colonoscopy were biopsied and histopathologically reviewed. Results The patients of group A completed bowel preparation of 233 cases, completed colonoscopy 226 Cases, group B completed bowel preparation 238 cases, completed colonoscopy 210 cases. There was no significant difference in bowel cleansing between the groups (P > 0.05). Group A reported less incidence rate of the mucosal injuries than Group B. Group A reported better patient security than Group B at the same time. Conclusion Compared with sodium phosphate (NaP) regimen low-volume Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) plus ascorbic acid regimen exhibited equivalent bowel-cleansing efficacy and less incidence rate of the mucosal injuries and better patient security.

This study is to observe the effect of N-(3-phenylallylidene)-6-fluoro-1, 8-(2, 1-propoxy)-7-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-quinolin-4(1H)-one-3-carbonyl hyarazine (FQ16) on apoptosis of hepatocarcinoma SMMC-7721 cells in vitro. With different concentrations of FQ16 at different times used to treat SMMC-7721 cells in vitro, the proliferation of the cells and the inhibition effect of FQ16 on the cell proliferation were examined by MTT assay. Cell apoptosis was determined by Hoechst 33258/PI fluorescence staining, TUNEL and agarose gel electrophoresis method. The effect of FQ16 on topoisomerase II activity was measured by agarose gel electrophoresis using Plasmid pBR322 DNA as the substrate. Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP, delta psi m) was measured by high content screening image system. The reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the expression changes of Bcl-2 mRNA and Bax mRNA. The caspase-9, caspase-8, caspase-3, p53, Bcl-2 and Bax protein expressions were detected by Western blotting analysis. The results showed that the cell proliferation was inhibited by FQ16 at 0.625 - 10 micromol L(-1) in a time-dose dependent manner. Treatment of SMMC-7721 cells with different concentrations of FQ16 for 24 h increased the percentage of the apoptosis cells obviously (P<0.05), the typical ladder DNA in apoptotic cells and a concomitant dissipation of the mitochondrial membrane potential. Compared with control group, FQ16 influenced obviously DNA topoisomerase II activity, stimulated DNA cleavage and inhibited DNA reunion mediated by topoisomerase II. In addition, FQ16 (3 - 7.39 micromol L(-1)) increased mRNA expression of Bax and protein expression of p53, Bax, caspase-9, caspase-3, separately, and induced cytosolic accumulation of activities caspase-9 and caspase-3, whereas the mRNA and protein expression of Bcl-2 decreased with no change of caspase-8. Therefore it can be concluded that the effects of inhibited topoisomerase II and mitochondrial-dependent pathways were involved in FQ16 induction of apoptosis of SMMC-7721 cells.

Objective To identify and rename one strain stored in National Center for Medicine Culture Collections ( CMCC) and used for tracheitis vaccine production. Methods The test strain CMCC (B)29108 and the type strain DSM30007T were cultured on NA medium. Characteristics in morphology, physiology, biochemistry and fatty acid profile were compared between the two strains. Phylogenetic analysis was based on 16S rRNA and rpoB gene sequences, together with the DNA-DNA hybridization assay. Results A Comparative analysis of a partial sequence of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that the CMCC( B) 29108 strain was closed to the Acinetobacter species and showed the highest similarity with the type strain Acinetobacter baumannii DSM30007T. Moreover, the CMCC(B)29108 strain was highly similar to type strain DSM30007T in morphology, physiology, biochemistry and fatty acid profile. On the phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA and rpoB gene of all Acinetobacter members, the CMCC(B)29108 strain steadily clustered into one independent branch only with the DSM30007 T strain with a DNA-DNA hybridization value of 100%. Conclusion The CMCC(B)29108 strain that is one of the strains used for the production of tracheitis vac-cine should be assigned to the species of Acinetobacter baumannii based on its phenotypic, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic characteristics.

Objective To investigate the changes of fecal short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) and bile acid levels in patients with colon cancer.Methods Totally 189 patients with colon cancer (CC group),201 patients with adenomatous polyp (AP group),and 512 healthy patients (control group) who were confirmed by endoscopy were included in this study.The fecal SCFA and bile acid levels were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.Results The total bile acids,primary bile acids,and secondary bile acids were not significantly different among these three groups (P ＞ 0.05).The chenodeoxycholate level in the CC group [0.338 (0.101,0.416) mg/g] was significandy higher than that in AP group [0.241 (0.108,0.375) mg/g] and control group [0.248 (0.110,0.371) mg/g] (P=0.025,P=0.023),but was not significantly different between the AP groupand the control group (P ＞ 0.05).The deoxycholic acid level in CC group [0.375 (0.136,0.503) mg/g] and AP group [0.369 (0.113,0.494) mg/g] were significandy higher than that in control group [0.277 (0.115,0.412) mg/g] (P=0.026,P=0.024),and the difference between CC group and AP group was not statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).The level of lithocholic acid in CC group [0.386 (0.147,0.507) mg/g] was significantly higher than those in the AP group [0.103 (0.012,0.238) mg/g] and control group [0.239 (0.081,0.405) rng/g] (P=0.011,P=0.027); also,its level in AP group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P =0.022).The levels of total short-chain fatty acids,acetic acid,propionic acid,and isovaleric acid were not significantly different among the control group,AP group,and CC group (P＞0.05).The levels of butyrate [0.105 (0.059,0.198) mg/g,0.090 (0.050,0.183) mg/g],isobutyl acid [0.036 (0.024,0.046) mg/g,0.025 (0.020,0.034) mg/g] in CC group and AP group were significantly higher than in the control group [0.081 (0.051,0.107) mg/g,0.021 (0.016,0.029) mg/g] (butyrate:P=0.026,P=0021; isobutyl acid:P=0.025,P=0.019),and the difference between CC group and AP group was statistically significant (butyrate:P =0.031; isobutyl acid:P =0.024).Conclusions Fetal chenodeoxycholic acid,lithocholic acid,butyric acid,and isobutyric acid may play a role in the developmem of colon cancer,while deoxycholic acid may also be implicated in both colon cancer and colon adenomas.No association is found between other SCFA and bile acids and colorectal cancer/adenoma.

Aim To study the effect of 3-pyridin-3-yl-4-[(4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzylidene)amino]-5-me-thylsulfanyl-4H-[1,2,4] triazole (LH-37) on induction of differentiation and apoptosis of hepatocarcinoma BEL-7402 cells. Methods BEL-7402 cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 and treated by LH-37 at different doses. The proliferation of the cells and the inhibition effect of LH-37 on the cell proliferation were examined by MTT assay. The reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the changes of alpha fetoprotein(?-FP)mRNA and albumin(Alb). The concentration of ?-FP in the cells was detected by ELISA assay. Cell morphology was observed by fluorescence microscope techniques. The protein expressions of active caspase-3 in BEL-7402 cells were observed by immunohistochemical staining. Western blot was used to assay caspase-3 and caspase-9. Colorimetric method was used to assay activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT). The apoptotic cells were assayed by flow cytometry (FCM) with annexin V-FITC conjugated and propidium iodide (PI) staining. Results The cell proliferation was inhibited by LH-37 at 10 ?mol?L-1~1 mmol?L-1 in dose dependent manners. After treated with 10 ?mol?L-1 or 1.0 ?mol?L-1 LH-37, the mRNA and protein expression of ?-FP were significantly reduced but mRNA expression of Alb was significantly increased. Treatment of BEL-7402 cells with different LH-37 concentrations for 48 hours increased the percentage of active caspase-3 positive cells and protein expression of caspase-3 and caspase-9. More apoptosis features of cells were observed in LH-37 ( 100 ?mol?L-1) treatment groups than in control group. LH-37 markedly promoted the viability of SOD and decreased CAT in BEL-7402 cells. Counclusion LH-37 might inhibit proliferation and induce differentiation and apoptosis of human hepatocarcinoma BEL-7402 cells, which might be related to the cytotoxicity of the intracellular hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).

Aim To study the effect of 6-(3-Benzyl-4-oxo-2-thioxo-thiazolidin-5-ylidenemethyl)-9-fluoro-3-methyl-10-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-2,3-dihydro-7-oxo-7-hydro-pyrido[1,2,3-de][1,4]benzoxazine (R3) on apoptosis of the human hepatocarcinoma SMMC-7721 cells (in vitro).Methods With different concentrations of R3 used to treat SMMC-7721 cells, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma EC-9706 cells, human colon adenocarcinoma cell line Caco-2 cells and in human L-02 hepatocytes (in vitro), and the inhibition effects of R3 on cell proliferation were examined by MTT assay.Cell apoptosis was determined using DAPI fluorescence staining and TUNEL method.The cell cycle was detected using flow cytometry with PI staining.Protein expression of p53 and caspase-3 was detected with Western blot analysis.Results Treatment with R3 (2~20 μmol·L-1) potently inhibited the proliferation of the cancer cells (the IC50 value at 24 h in SMMC-7721 cells, EC-9706cells and CaCO-2 cells was 3.893, 4.181 and 3.408 μmol·L-1, respectively).In contrast, R3 had weak cytotoxicity against L-02 cells with IC50 value of 38.96 μmol·L-1.Ofloxacin had weak cytotoxicity against SMMC-7721 cells with IC50 value of 240.137 μmol·L-1.Sunitinib had cytotoxicity against SMMC-7721 cells with IC50 value of 8.075 μmol·L-1.Treatment of SMMC-7721cells with different concentrations of R3 for 24 h increased the percentage of the apoptosis cells (P<0.05) and caused insufficient preparation for G1/S transition.In addition, R3 increased protein expression of p53, caspase-3 and the cleaved activated forms of caspase-3 in SMMC-7721 cells.Conclusion R3 as a kind of ofloxacin rhodanine derivatives exerts potent and selectively anticancer activity through the induction of apoptosis of SMMC-7721 cells.

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of segmental living related liver transplantation for very small infant with biliary atresia. Methods The recipient was a 145-day-old male with congenital biliary atresia. The infant was 66 cm in height and weighed 3.08 kg. The donor was his 36-year-old mother. Her segment Ⅱ of the liver was excised and orthotopically transplanted into the infant's body as the graft. The portal vein of the graft was end-to-end anastomosed to the portal vein of the recipient, the hepatic artery of the graft was end-to-end anastomosed to the proper hepatic artery of the recipient with lateral superficial vein of left great saphenous vein from donor as a bridge, and the hepatic vein was end-to-end anastomosed to the hepatic vein of the recipient whose hepatic vein was conformed from right, middle and left hepatic vein. Biliary tract was reconstructed via Roux-en-Y operation. Results Segment Ⅱ (160 g) of liver from donor was resected, and there was no blood infusion. The donor retained her liver function within 5 days and was discharged on the eighth day. The operating time of graft implantation was 451 min. The blood loss was 250 ml. Non-liver stage was 71 min. The cold ischemic time was 132 min. Cyclosporine, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and prednisone were used for postoperative immunosuppression. The bilirubin level of the infant was decreased to the normal level one week after operation, and the liver function became normal in 9 days. Jejuno-leakage on the 7th day after the transplantation was recovered by mend and drainage and discharged on the 35th day. The donor and recipient were in satisfactory condition to present. Conclusion The segmental living related liver transplantation is advisable for very small infant with biliary atresia. Perfect operative technique and postoperative intensive care are the keys to ensure the success of the procedure.
