OBJECTIVE:To discuss the effect of tanshinone Ⅱ A on the apoptosis of HeLa cell line and its mechanism.METHODS:MTT was used to measure the levels of the proliferation of HeLa cells cultured with tanshinone Ⅱ A in different concentrations.The apoptosis was measured by Hoechst33258 staining,and the level of mRNA of Bcl-2 and bax in HeLa cells was tested by semi-fix quantify RT-PCR method.RESULTS:Tanshinone Ⅱ A could inhibit the proliferation of HeLa cells in a dose dependent manner,induce cell apoptosis,and markedly decrease the expression of Bcl-2 on mRNA level after treatment for 48h,while it had no obvious change in bax mRNA level.CONCLUSION:Tanshinone Ⅱ A can inhibit the proliferation of HeLa cells and induce the apoptosis of the cells.

Objective To study the X-ray imaging characteristics of gouty arthritis. Methods The X-ray plates from gouty arthritis were analyzed. Results The gouty arthritis usually occurred in the first metatarsophalangeal joint. The X-ray findings were dissymmetric swellings of soft tissue,bony erosion defect with sharp and hard edge,narrowed joint space and irregular articular surface,emergence of fiber stiffness,even joint malformations and sublimation or dislocation, associated with hyperosteogeny and nearby osteoporosis. Conclusion Diversification was presented in X-ray findings of gouty arthritis, which could be easily confused with other single or multiple bone joint diseases. As a result, accurate diagnosis should be based on careful analysis about X-ray findings.

Objective To study the effect of three kinds of reagent: ethrel, Aspirin, tryptophan on the accumulation of medicinal component in Catharanthus roseus leaves. Methods To treat these potplants of C. roseus in green house with the three reagents in different concentrations, respectively. Then, two days later, the contents of catharanthine and vinblastine in leaves were determined by RP-HPLC. Results The three reagents can obviously improve the accumulation of indole alkaloids, including catharanthine and vinblastine in C. roseus leaves. Their optimum treatment concentration was finally comfirmed. Conclusion These three kinds of reagent apparently promote the accumulation of total indole alkoloids in the leaves of C. roseus.

Objective To investigate the association of Galectin-3 ( lectin, galactoside-binding soluble , LGALS3)gene-191(rs4644)polymorphism and breast cancer in Chinese female population .Methods Galectin-3 gene rs4644 polymorphisms was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymor-phism(PCR-RFLP)in 172 breast cancer patients and 17 controls.The experimental results of PCR-RFLP were verified and sample of 10 cases were sequenced randomly .Results The frequency of CC ,CA and AA genotype in breast cancer group and normal control group was 72.7%, 25.0%, 2.3% and 52.9%, 41.2%, 5.9%, respectively .The frequency of C and A allele in breast cancer group and normal control group was 85.2%, 14.8%and 73.5%, 26.5% respectively .The genotype and frequency of allele had no statistical difference between breast cancer patients and the control group .rs4644C allele was more likely to occur in breast cancer patients with T>2 cm (χ2 =8.295,P=0.004) and Ki67<14%(χ2 =3.917,P=0.048).Conclusions There is no significant association between Galectin-3 gene 191 polymorphism rs4644 and susceptibility of breast cancer in Chinese female population .It is closely associated with the size of tumor and Ki 67.

Objective To investigate the prognostic value of lymph node status evaluated by computed tomography (CT) in cervical carcinoma treated with radical chemoradiation therapy.Methods 209 patients with FIGO stage Ⅰ B-ⅣA uterine cervical carcinoma treated with radical chemo radiation therapy were enrolled.Lymph node status was evaluated based on site,number and size respectively by CT.Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the impact of lymph node status as well as other pathoclinical factors on overall survival (OS).Cox regression model was used to explore the relationship between independent prognostic factors and OS.Results Lymph node metastasis rates for stage Ⅰ B,Ⅱ,Ⅲ and ⅣA patients were 16.7 % (1/6),48.2 % (68/141),57.4 % (31/54) and 87.5 % (7/8),respectively.Variate analysis showed that FIGO stage,anemia before treatment,para-aortic lymph node metastasis,and the number (≥3) and size (maximum diameter ≥ 2.0 cm) of CT positive lymph node were significant unfavorable prognostic factors for OS (P < 0.05).FIGO stage,the number of lymph nodes metastasis,pathologic diagnosis and treatment regimen were identified to be independent prognostic factors in multivariate analysis.Conclusion Under current therapeutic strategy of concomitant chemoradiotherapy,lymph node metastatic status evaluated by pretreatment CT is still a significant and independent prognostic factor for cervical cancer.

Objective To understand the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens isolated from blood culture samples Chang’an Hospital from 2012 to 2014 to provide basis for rational use of antibacterial drugs.Methods The clinical date of distribution,changes and drug resistance of main pathogens in blood culture samples during 2012 and 2014 in chang anhospi-tal were retrospectively analyzed.Results 512 pathogenic bacterial strains were isolated from 4 792 blood culture samples in 2012~2014.Among them,gram-negative bacteria accounted for 62.50% (320/512),Escherichia coli ,Klebsiella pneumoni-ae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa accounted for 25.20% (129/512),14.26% (73/512)and 8.20% (42/512)respectively;Gram-positive bacteria accounted for 29.30% (150/512),Staphylococcus aureus and Coagulase-negative Staphylococcus ac-counted for 11.52% (59/512)and 10.16% (52/512)respectively.The rate of fungi was 7.62% (39/512).Susceptibility re-sults showed that Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae had highly sensitive to carbapenems,but had a varying degrees of resistance to other antibacterial drugs.The rate of drug resistant of Gram-positive cocci to Penicillin,Erythromycin and Clindamycin had been a high level,but no strains being resistant to van comycin and linezolid had been detected.Conclusion The pathogens causing bloodstream infection widely distribute,and have highly drug-resistant.It is necessary to under-stand the distribution of pathogens isolated from blood culture as well as the changes of drug resistance in a timely manner so as to guide the reasonable clinical medication.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological factors predictive of lymph node metastasis (LNM) in undifferentiat-ed early gastric cancer (EGC) and to expand the possibility of endoscopic therapy for treating undifferentiated EGC.Methods:The re-searchers collected the data of 90 undifferentiated EGC patients who had undergone surgery at the Xingtai People's Hospital, Xingtai, China. The relationship between LNM and clinicopathological factors was retrospectively analyzed using univariate and multivariate lo-gistic regression analyses. Results:Univariate analysis showed that tumor size, lymphatic vessel involvement (LVI), and cancer inva-sion depth were the significant and independent risk factors for LNM. The LNM rate was 57.1%in patients with the three clinicopatho-logical risk factors. LNM was not found in patients without the three risk factors. Conclusion:Tumor size, LVI, and invasion depth are independently associated with the presence of LNM in undifferentiated EGC. Endoscopic therapy can be used to treat the patients with-out risk factors.
