Tianjin Medical Journal 2015;(8):929-931
Objective To investigate the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (Ki67) in hepatitis B virus (HBV) related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissue and its correlation with clinicopathological parameters of HBV related HCC. Methods HBV-related HCC patients (n=134) were divided according to Ki67 index (the percentage of Ki67-posi?tive cells) into Ki67 index<10%group (negative group, n=30) and Ki67 index≥10%group(positive group, n=104). The cor?relation of Ki67 index with age, gender, glypican 3 (GPC3), histological grade, BCLC (Barcelona Clinic liver cancer) staging, portal involvement, AFP (AFP), liver function related child-pugh classification data were calculated in both groups. Ki 67 in?dex is set according to the interval score to assess the relationship between Ki67 score and BCLC classification. Results (1) SP staining showed, Ki67 present a trend of increase from normal liver tissue to well-differentiated to medium differentiat?ed tissue to poorly differentiated tissues intensity. (2) In positive group, Ki67 index was correlated with BCLC staging, portal metastasis, histological grade, GPC3 and AFP (P<0.05);By contrast, in negative group, Ki67 index was not correlated with any clinical parameter (P>0.05). (3) Ki67 score increases with the progress of BCLC classification. Conclusion In Ki67 positive group, Ki67 index combined with GPC3, histological grade, BCLC staging, portal involvement, AFP and liver func?tion child-pugh classification can assess the severity of the patients with HCC, which is expected to become an important in?dicator for the HBV-related HCC early diagnosis.

Objective To evaluate the effects of propofol on TREM-1 expression in THP-1 cells stimulated by lipo-polysaccharide (LPS). Methods Cells were divided into 7 groups: (1) control group; (2) LPS group that was exposed to LPS in final concentration of 100μg/L;(3) Progroup that was incubated with 100μmol/L propofol;(4-7) groups combined 100μg/L LPS with propofol at different dose of 12.5μmol/L (P1 group), 25μmol/L (P2 group), 50μmol/L (P3 group), 100μmol/L (P4 group) respectively. After 16 hours of incubation, the TNF-α concentration in supernatants were measured by ELISA. TREM-1 expression were examined by FACS and TREM-1 mRNA were detected using qRT-PCR. Results TREM-1 on THP-1 increased significantly in group P3 and group P4 compared with LPS group (P<0.05). The concentra-tions of TNF-αin P3 and P4 (P<0.05) decreased substantially in supernatant compared with LPS group. TREM-1 mRNA transcription level in group LPS rise considerably (P < 0.05) compared to that in control group, and it dropped greatly in group P4 (P <0.05) compared with that in group LPS. Conclusion Propofol could enhance TREM-1 expression on sur-face of THP-1 stimulated by LPS. Propofol reduces TNF-αlevel in culture supernatant. And propofol may restrain TREM-1 mRNA expression.

BACKGROUND:Stem cel transplantation has a certain effect in the treatment pulmonary arterial hypertension.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s transplantation on the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension and to discuss the mechanism.
METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were in vitro cultured, purified and amplified by density gradient centrifugation method, and labeled with the fluorescent dye for preparation. Pulmonary arterial hypertension model was established by subcutaneous injection of monocrotaline. One week after modeling, the rats were randomly divided into three groups. Rats in the stem cel transplantation group and pulmonary arterial hypertension group received subcutaneous injection of monocrotaline to establish the pulmonary arterial hypertension model. One week later, the rats in the stem cel transplantation group received sublingual vein injection of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel solution, the rats in the pulmonary arterial hypertension group were injected with the culture medium without stem cel s, and the rats in the control group were injected with the normal saline in the same dose.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 2 weeks after transplantation, compared with the mesenchymal-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension rats, the hemodynamic parameters and the ratio of right ventricular/body weight of the rats in the stem cel transplantation group were significantly improved (P<0.05);the degree of pulmonary vascular remodeling was significantly reduced (P<0.05). Fluorescence microscope observation showed that the transplanted bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s could alive at least 2 weeks in the stem cel transplantation group, and part of the stem cel s could differentiate into pulmonary vascular endothelial cel s. The results show that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel transplantation can significantly improve the pulmonary vascular and right ventricular structural impairments in the rats with mesenchymal-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension.

AIM: To observe the neovascularization process with no intervention in rat allogenic penetrating keratoplasty. METHODS: Allogenic penetrating keratoplasties were successfully performed in 34 female SPF SD rats with no intervention after operations. Corneal neovascularization(CNV) process was noted on day 4, 7, 15 and 30 with operating microscope. The vascular area surface was calculated using the formula C/12×3.14×[r2-(r-I)2].RESULTS: CNV was noted in 29 out of 34 rats (85%). Firstly, the new vessels distributed around the cornea like a brush then gradually extended towards the center. The vessels were distorted and massive with branched tails, they continued growing to reticulated veins in peak time then gradually atrophied. The average neovascularization area (SE) on day 4, 7, 15 and 30 was 11.8±3.5mm2, 18.5±4.0mm2,14.4±4.3mm2 and 6.0±1.8mm2 respectively and 12.7±1.9mm2 in total. The average percentage that new vessels accounting the whole cornea area(SE) was 30.8%±8.7%, 65.3%±12.8%, 59.4%±14.5%,36.2%±10.9% and 48.7%±6.4% in total.CONCLUSION: In rat allogenic penetrating keratoplasties without intervention, CNV presented on day 4 and reached the maximum area on day 7. Then the vessels gradually atrophied, about 50% of the maximum area still remained on day 30.

Using RT-PCR, we can detect measles virus hemagglutinin gene (H gene) of 635bp length directly from measles vaccine strain Shanghai-191, Edmonston strain, nasopharyngeal aspirates and throat swabs of the measles patients. The primers of RT-PCR based on H gene sequence of measles virus did not give the same products from rubella virus and influenza viruses (A1, A3, B). By second PCR amplification, the minimum quantity of measles virus required to give a positive signal was<0.01TCID50. Since the IgM antibody positive rate in early stage of measles patients is always low, the specificity and sensitivity of RT-PCR method may help diagnosing measles cases.
