Objective: To investigate the association between the polymorphism of HLA-A, HLA-B genes and pre-eclampsia. Methods: HLA-A, HLA-B genotyping was performed by polymerase chain reaction sequence-specific primer (PCR-SSP) in 119 preeclampsia patients, 117 normal pregnant women and their neonates. Results: The study showed that 16 HLA-A and 39 HLA-B alleles were obtained in pre-eclamptic patients and normal pregnant women. 15 HLA-A and 37 HLA-B alleles were obtained in their neonates. No significant difference was found in maternal or neonatal HLA-A, HLA-B alleles be-tween pre-eclampsia group and control group (Pc>0. 05). The frequencies of HLA-A11, HLA-A24,HLA-B13, HLA-B14, HLA-B15, HLA-B52 maternal/fetus genetic assoications were significantly different between pre-eclampsia group and control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion: Some HLA-A, HLA-B maternal/fetus special bindings may be associated with the susceptibility or protective of pre-eclampsia.

Silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) is a kind of histone deacetylase which dependents on nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide.It is involved in the occurrence and development of tumors.Data show that SIRT1 is highly expressed in many tumors,such as gastric cancer,breast cancer,prostate cancer and so on.On the other hand,the expression of SIRT1 is lower in many other types of tumors,including glioblastomas,bladder cancer,ovarian cancer and so on.Therefore,the role of SIRT1 in tumor formation process is still uncertain and controversial.

Objective To evaluate CT features of hepatic abscess caused by different etiologies.Methods CT appearances and clinical data of hepatic abscesses were retrospectively studied in 54 cases.Results There appeared low density lesions in hepatic abscess.Target sign,cluster sign and air in the cavity were special CT manifestations of hepatic abscess.Abscess caused by different etiologies had different features,which included infection by blood stream or bile duct abnormalities,amebic liver abscess,and hepatocellular carcinoma complicated with suppurative infection after treated with TAE.Conclusion The CT manifestations of hepatic abscess were characteristic.These manifestations were helpful in diagnosing hepatic abscess not only in location but also in nature and etiology.

Objective:To investigate the influence of Mannan Peptide combined with 5-Fu on the proliferation and apoptosis of HepG2 cells and to explore the related mechanism.Methods:HepG2 cells were divided into four groups:the control group,5-Fu group,Mannan Peptide group and combination group.Cell proliferation was evaluated by MTT assay.Flow cytometry was used to examine the cell cycle,proliferation index(PI)and apoptosis ratio.The expression of Bcl-2 protein in each group was analyzed by immunocytochemical method.Results:The inhibitive effect of 5-Fu plus Mannan Peptide was significantly stronger than that of Mannan Peptide alone,in a time-and dose-dependent manner. Cells were treated with medicine for 48 hours.Compared with cells in the control group and 5-Fu group,the percentage of cells in G_0/G_1 stage and the apoptosis ratio in the combination group were increased(P<0.01).In immunocytochemical analysis,the combination of Mannan Peptide and 5-Fu could significantly decrease Bcl-2 protein level(P<0.01).Conclusion:The combination of Mannan Peptide and 5-Fu can synergistically suppress the proliferation and induce apoptosis of human hepatoma HepG2 cells.The mechanism might be associated with down-regulation of Bcl-2 protein expression.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanisms of the Berberine on the human breast adenocarci-noma cell line MCF-7 . Methods MTT method was used to evaluate the proliferation effect of MCF-7 and the per-centage of apoptotic cells were determined by flow cytometric analysis. The expressions of JAK2, p-JAK2, p-STAT3, STAT3, Bax, Bcl-2, Cleavage-PARP and Cleavage-Caspase3 were detected by Western blotting. Results The results showed that BBR treatment decreased the activation of JAK2/STAT3 signal pathway and up-regulated the expression of Bax, Caspase3 and PARP activation with the decrease of the expression of Bcl-2. Wherefore, ex-pression of the constitutively active form of STAT3 could attenuate the effect of BBR on the MCF-7 cell. Conclusion Berberine can induces apoptosis and proliferation inhibition of breast adenocarcinoma cell lines of MCF-7 through inhibition of the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

HCV-related decompensated cirrhos,hypersplenism,thrombocytopenia,which not only affect the standard antiviral therapy,fail to achieve the sustained virological response(SVR),but also increase the risk of infection and bleeding.The only successful option is liver transplantation (LT),but the recurrence of HCV after LT remains to be resolved.The patients of HCV genotype 2 are suitable for splenectomy and antiviral therapy following splenectomy,which can achieved a higher SVR and reversed cirrhosis.As an effective alternative to splenectomy,the partial splenic embolization (PSE) can improve the changes of portal hemodynamics and reduce the sequelae of portal hypertension.The appearance of direct antiviral drugs (DAAs)has bring hope for those with decompensated cirrhos and whom IFN is contraindicated or tolerated poorly,those who are waiting for LT or with recurrence of hepatitis C after LT.The treatment of patients with decompensated cirrhos is as follows.

Objective To explore the corresponding relationship between isolated Q waves in lead Ⅲ on the electrocardiography(ECG) and echocardiographie segmental diagnosis of myocardial infarction(MI).Methods The shape magnitude of Q waves of 27 patients with MI and the relationship with eehocardiographie features were investigated. Results Twenty-four patients with inferior wall myocardial infarction had close relationship with isolated Q waves in lead Ⅲ on the ECG. Conclusions There is definite corresponding relation between isolated Q waves in lead Ⅲ and inferior wall myocardial infarction.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of zinc finger gene 217 (ZNF217) in human papillary thyroid carcinoma.Methods The expressions of ZNF217 mRNA and protein were detected by quantitative realtime PCR and Western blot in papillary thyroid carcinoma tissues (n =20) and adjacent normal tissues (n =20),and the data were analyzed.Results The expressions of ZNF217 mRNA and protein in papillary thyroid carcinoma were significantly higher than those in adjacent normal tissues (96.72 ± 44.19 vs 4.86 ±3.55,0.994 ± 0.172 vs 0.195 ± 0.061,both P＜0.01),being higher in the papillary thyroid carcinoma with capsule invasion compared with that without capsule invasion (P＜0.01).The expressions of ZNF217 mRNA and protein in papillary thyroid carcinoma were not related to gender,age,tumor size,TNM stage or lymph node metastasis (all P＞0.05).Conclusions The overexpression of ZNF217 may be associated with the oncogenesis and progress of papillary thyroid carcinoma and capsule invasion,and thus is expected to become a new target for prevention and treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Objective To explore the pulsed wave Doppler (PWD) manifestations of acute experimental incomplete testicular torsion. Methods Eight healthy dogs were surgically modeled to obtain unilateral acute testis torsion from 180° to 630°, respectively. The peak systole velocity (PSV) and resistance index (RI) of intratesticular artery, capsular artery and arteria spermatica interna were measured with PWD before torsion, 2 h, 4 h and 6 h after torsion. Testes were examined pathologically after the experiment. Results PSV and RI of capsular artery and intratesticular artery decreased gradually with the extension of torsional time (P<0.05). PSV and RI of superior, torsional and inferior segments of arteria spermatica interna varied greatly and showed no strong regularity (P＞0.05) . The pathological results of testes showed no distinct changes or just mild interstitial hyperemia and edema. Conclusion The decrease of PSV and RI of capsular artery and intratesticular artery, especially RI have referential value in the judgement of acute experimental incomplete testicular torsion, whereas changes of PSV and RI of superior, torsional and inferior segments of arteria spermatica interna are not reliable.
