Objective To detect p27 expression in rectal carcinoma and serum transforming growth factor ? 1 (TGF ? 1) level in these patients, and to elucidate the modulatory effect of serum TGF ?1 on p27 expression in rectal carcinoma. Methods Expression of p27 was measured in 37 cases of rectal carcinoma, 22 of rectal adenoma and 19 of normal control specimens by immunohistochemical staining using antibodies to p27. Serum level of TGF ?1 was measured in these patients by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. Results p27 protein was expressed in normal rectal tissue, rectal adenoma and rectal carcinoma, and the positive rate was 89.47%, 90.91% and 64.87%, respectively. The positive rate of p27 in rectal carcinoma was significantly lower than that of normal rectal tissue and rectal adenoma ( P =0.025). p27 was mainly located in nucleolus of normal rectal tissue and rectal adenoma, and the positive rate of p27 in cytoplasm of rectal carcinoma was higher than that of normal and rectal adenoma. The positives rates of serum TGF ?1 in normal group, rectal adenoma group and rectal carcinoma group were 21.05%, 27.27% and 51.35%( P =0.045),respectively. The expression of p27 related to histological differentiation, lymph node metastasis and infiltration depth. Serum level of TGF ?1 related to lymph node metastasis, infiltrated depth and CEA level. The positive rate of p27 in TGF ?1 negative group and positive group was 88.89% and 42.11%(Mantel Haenszel ? 2=6.755, P =0.009), respectively. Conclusion TGF ?1 may be useful in assessment of malignance and prognosis of rectal carcinoma. TGF ?1 can down regulate p27 expression in rectal carcinoma.

Objective To describe and analyze the clinical characters of patients with FRG from 7 Chinese families.Then analyze and identify their mutations in SGLT2 gene,and explore the association of genotype and phenotype.Methods Quantitative test for 24-hour urine glucose and other laboratory tests were carried out among 7 probands (14 patients in all) and their family members from 7 pedigrees (totaling 23 subjects).All coding regions,including intron-exon boundaries,were analyzed using PCR followed by direct sequence analysis.Results Five novel mutations in SLC5A2 gene were identified in this investigation,including four missense mutations (A Serine to Glycine at position 335 (c.1003A＞G,p.S335G),a Glutamine to Arginine at position 448 (c.1343A ＞ G,p.Q448R),an alanine to proline at position 474 (p.A474P,c.1420G ＞ C) and a glycine to aspartic acid at position 580 (c.1739G ＞ A,p.G580D) and a deletion in intron 7 (c.886(-10_-31)del).By the minigene studies using the pSPL3 plasmids,we confirmed the deletion c.886(-10_-31)del as a splicing mutation.In this study,the mutation c.886(-10_-31)del accounted for about 43％ of the total alleles (12/28).These patients with compound heterozygous or homozygous mutations manifested middle degree or severe glycosuria (Quantitative test for 24-hour urine glucose:10.56-50.68 g/1.73 m2),however those with heterozygous variants presented with mild to moderate glycosuria (Quantitative test for 24-hour urine glucose ≤ 2.45 g/1.73 m2).This fits co-dominant inheritance pattern.Conclusions Five novel mutations which may be related to FRG are found in this study,and c.886(-10-31) del may be a high frequency mutation in Chinese patients.

AIM:To explore the effect of CXCL16 deficiency on streptozocin ( STZ)-induced diabetic nephrop-athy in mice.METHODS:CXCL16 knockout ( C16 KO) mice (8 years old) were used to build up diabetes model by treating with STZ.Age-and gender-matched wild-type ( WT) C57BL/6J mice treated with STZ were used as control.All mice were fed with chow diets for 12 weeks, and the development of diabetic nephropathy was evaluated.RESULTS:Compared with the WT mice treated with STZ, C16 KO mice treated with STZ presented lower fasting glucose levels and better glucose tolerance power.C16 KO mice treated with STZ also had lower urine protein levels and smaller areas of glo-merular injury as compared with WT mice treated with STZ.Furthermore, CXCL16 deficiency decreased the contents of re-nal reactive oxygen species ( ROS) , malondialdehyde ( MDA) and oxidized low-density lipoprotein ( ox-LDL) and the mR-NA expression of lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1 (Lox-1), and attenuated the expression of renal in-flammatory factors including tumor necrosis factor α( TNF-α) and interleukin 6 ( IL-6) , as well as chemokines including intercellular cell adhesion molecular 1 (ICAM-1) and chemokine C-X-C motif ligand 1 (CXCL1).CONCLUSION:CX-CL16 deficiency obviously inhibits the development of STZ-induced diabetic nephropathy in mice.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for simultaneous determination of propofol and remifentanil concentrations in human plasma.Methods Methods Eighteen healthy volunteers of both sexes,aged 18-45 yr,weighing 52-81 kg,were enrolled in the study.Venous blood samples were collected,and the concentrations of propofol and remifentanil in human plasma were detected simultaneously by HPLC.The internal standard was thymol.Potassium dihydrogen phosphate 0.1 mol/L was added to the plasma and then the plasma samples were extracted with extract liquor (ethyl acetate ∶ hexane =4 ∶ 1,V/V).The analytical column was ZORBAX Eclipse XDB-C18 (4.6 mm×250 mm,5 μm).The mobile phase was methano ∶ 0.02 mol/L NaH2PO4 ∶ acetonitrile,the flow rate was 1.0 ml/min,the detection wavelength was 210 nm within 1-7 min,and 266 nm within 7-16 min,and the sample size was 20 μl.Linear regression analysis was performed by using the least-squares method.The specimens of the blood with the final concentration of remifentanil 1.00,5.00 and 20.00 ng/ml and propofol 0.50,2.00 and 10.00 μg/ml were obtained to determine the recovery,precision and stability.Results Linear regression equation of remifentanil was C=12.853 5Ai/As+0.084 8 (R2 =0.999 4),and this system showed a good linear relationship with the concentration of remifentanil ranged 0.5-40.0 ng/ml.Linear regression equation of propofol was C=8.554 3 Ai/As+0.029 1 (R2=0.998 6),and this system showed a good linear relationship with the concentration of propofol ranged 0.2-20.0 μg/ml.For both propofol and remifentanil concentrations,the relative recovery was within the range of 85％-115％,the absolute recovery was larger than 75％,and the relative standard deviation of intra-and inter-day precision and stability was less than 5％.The method was proved to meet the requirements of biological sample analysis.Conclusion For HPLC method established in this trial,the determination is sensitive,reproducible,rapid and simple,and it can be used for simultaneous determination of propofol and remifentanil concentrations in human plasma and for clinical pharmacokinetic research.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of the current measure of Oncomelania hupensis control in Jiangsu Province. Methods The snail control was carried out with molluscicides in the high transmission areas every year. Some snail habitat areas were modified. The snail areas within three years were re-treated with molluscicides in the maintenance phase. The snail survey was carried out every spring, and the data were analysed with SAS software. Results From 1995 to 2001, 14519.17 hm 2 of snail habitats were molluscicided, 2768.57 hm 2 were modified, and 8803.64 hm 2 were re-treated with molluscicides in the maintenance phase. The coverage rates of snail control areas dropped by 19.14% every year. The snail areas increased by 6.25% every year from 1995 to 2002. In which, the areas of infected snails increased by 18.52% every year. The correlation analysis showed that the areas of infected snails increased with the increasing of the total snail areas. At the same time, the areas of infected snails increased with the fall of the coverage rates of snail control areas. The analysis of the snail distribution showed that the main problem was poor snail control. Conclusion In recent years, the rise of area of snail habitats is serious in Jiangsu Province. The present measures of the snail control have not effectively stopped the spreading and increasing of snails. The research on the new molluscicides, the new methods of snail control and the better policies are very important.

Objective: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in children and adolescents, often accompanied by motor function disorders. Sarcopenia not only has skeletal muscle dysfunction but also has neurocognitive dysfunction. At present, there is no research to explore the relationship between ADHD and skeletal muscle function. The purpose of this study is to explore whether there is a causal effect between ADHD and sarcopenia. Methods: In this study, genome-wide association study data of ADHD, appendicular lean mass (ALM), hand grip strength, and walking pace (WP) were extracted from public databases. The bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) method was employed to investigate the correlation between ADHD and sarcopenia-related indicators, and the inverse-variance weighted analysis as the primary analysis method. Results: Based on the forward MR analysis, a potential causal relationship exists between ADHD and ALM (odds ratio [OR]=1.020, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.012–1.029, p<0.001). The reverse MR analysis indicates a link between WP and the risk of ADHD (OR=2.712, 95% CI: 1.609–4.571, p<0.001), with an accelerated WP increasing the likelihood of ADHD. Nevertheless, other MR analysis results did not show significant differences. Conclusion The findings of this study indicate an intricate causal relationship between ADHD and sarcopenia, suggesting the absence of a clear link. WP may be used as one of the indicators to evaluate the risk of ADHD. At the same time, we should pay more attention to the ALM of ADHD patients.
