Objective To detect the genes differentially expressed in sepsis-injured lungs and discover new genetic targets for management of sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI) and evaluate the role of cDNA microarray in the study of molecular pathogenesis of sepsis. Methods In a murine model of polymicrobial sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP), the gene expression patterns of the lungs of the animals in sepsis group and control group (Sham-operation ) were screened at 6 h and 12 h after CLP by using a commercially available cDNA microarray chips containing 2 201 cDNA clones. The cDNA of differentially expressed unique genes were sorted and analyzed. Results Of the 2 201 cDNA clones on the chip, 80 known unique genes had significant differential expression at 6 and/or 12 h after CLP as compared with those of mice in control group. 40 of the 80 genes were up-regulated and 40 down-regulated and they were related with a range of genetic functions, such as cell defence or immune/inflammatory reaction, acute-phase reaction or heat-shock reaction, redox regulation, cytoskeleton, cell apoptosis, cell signaling and cell metabolism etc. By functional analysis of these differentially expressed genes, some unique genes or expression patterns were interpreted in the context of septic ALI process and warrant further investigation. Conclusion cDNA microarray technique provides a powerful new tool for detecting differentially expressed genes and analyzing gene expression patterns in sepsis-injured tissues. Further study using this technique may yield great insight into the molecular pathologic mechanism of sepsis and discern new targets for therapeutic interventions.

Objective To investigate the dynamic changes and clinical significanes of TNF?α,IL?1,IL?10 and HMGB?1 in patients with tuberculosis. Methods Fifty?nine patients with active tuberculosis were enrolled in this study. The patients received the standard chemotherapy and the curative effect of the patient was evaluat ed according to the outcome classification in our country. The peripheral blood serum from the patients during the treatment and 12 healthy volunteers were collected. The concentrations of serum TNF?α,IL?1,IL?10 and HMGB?1 were detected by ELISA tests. Results Significant decreases of the concentrations of serum TNF?α,IL?1 and HMGB?1 were shown in patients from the initial treatment,to retreatment and extra?pulmonary tuberculosis (P<0.01),and the serum IL?10 was increased significantly (P<0.01) along with the chemotherapy and improvement of the disease. At the beginning of the treatment ,the levels of 4 kinds of inflammatory factors had no significant differences between the completed and uncompleted treatment patients (P>0.05). At the end of the treatment , the levels of serum TNF?α,IL?1 and HMGB?1 of the uncompleted treatment group were significantly higher than the normal levels (P<0.01) ,but the level of IL?10 was significantly lower than the normal level (P<0.01). Conclusion The dynamic testing of the inflammatory cytokines contributes to evaluation and judgement of the curative effect and the condition of patients with the active tuberculosis.

[Objective]To investigate the outcomes of cementless metasul metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty.[Method]Metasul metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty of 30 hips in 25 patients was performed from August 2003 to December 2005.There were 11 males and 14 females with an average age of 47 years(28-72 years).Harris hip scores were determined before surgery and at the last follow-up examination.Standardized radiographs were obtained to evaluate component conditions.Blood samples were taken to determine serum chromium levels with use of atomic absorption spectrometry.[Result]Twenty-three patients(28 hips)were followed up with a mean period of 3.6 years(2.5-4.8 years).The mean Harris hip score improved from 49.5(17-78)points preoperatively to 93.4(55-99)points at the time of final follow-up.Twenty-two hips(85%)had an excellent result.Radiolucent lines were found in 3 hips.Focal femoral osteolysis was seen only in one patient.Sciatic nerve was injured in one case,which showed rehabilitation after 2.5 years.One hip had periprothetic infection because of diabetes 4 years after operation.There was no measurable wear by X-rays.No dislocation or fracture was found.The median serum chromium concentration was 0.082 ?g/mL(0.020～0.140 ?g/mL).No patient was diagnosed with renal insufficiency or hematologic malignancy during the study period.[Conclusion]The outcomes of Metasul metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty are satisfactory.However,additional follow-up is necessary to determine any possible long-term deleterious effects.

[Objective]To discuss the cementless revision for postoperative infection after hip arthroplasty.[Methods]From November 1997 to December 2006,7 patients(7 hips) with infection after hip arthroplasty were treated,including 3 males and 4 females,with a mean age of 58 years(36～73 years).In the 7 hips,4 hips underwent a revision of total hip arthroplasty,2 hips only received new acetabular components and 1 hip underwent stem revision.One-stage revision was performed in 4 cases,two-stage revision was performed in 3 cases.Consecutive radiographs were compared to evaluate component conditions.Harris hip scores were determined before surgery and at the final follow-up examination.The erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein were detected.[Results]All patients were followed up with a mean period of 3.6 years(1.5～10.6 years).The mean Harris hip score improved from 35(18-63) points preoperatively to 89(60～99) points at the time of final follow-up.No re-infection was found.Femoral component exsertion was found in 1 patient but without any symptom.Pain of hip joint disappeared in 5 cases,and 2 patients had mild pain when walking long distance.At the time of final follow-up,5 patients still had slight limp.Heterotopic ossification developed in 1 hip.The mean polyethylene liner wear was 0.08 mm per year at final follow-up.Deep vein phlebothrombosis and nerve injury were not found.[Conclusion]It is possible to have satisfactory clinical outcome by one-stage or two-stage revision using cementless prothesis for postoperative infection after total hip arthroplasty.Whether the original prothesis can be saved when fixed tightly with femur or acetabular bone needs more experiences to confirm.

[Objective]To evaluate the clinical and radiographic results of revision hip arthroplasty with cementless prothesis.[Method]Revision hip arthroplasty of 41 hips in 36 patients was performed from November 1997 to August 2007 using cementless prothesis.In the 41 hips,29 hips underwent a revision total hip arthroplasty,8 hips underwent new acetabular components,and 4 hips underwent stem revision.Consecutive radiographs were compared to evaluate component conditions.The value of AAOS and Paprosky classification was used.Harris hip scores(HHSs)were determined before surgery and at the most recent follow-up examination.The Kaplan-Meier survivorship analysis was used to estimate the probability of survival of the prothesis.[Result]Twenty-two patients(26 hips)were available for complete clinical and radiographic analysis.The mean follow-up period was 4.6 years(range,1-11 years).The mean preoperative Harris hip score of 38(range,11-76)points improved to 88(range,60-99)points at the time of final follow-up.The pain and function socre improved from 16.9 and 17.3 points to 40.4 and 39.9 points,respectively.All patients had moderate to severe limp before revision.At the time of final follow-up,8 patients still had slight limp and 4 patients had moderate limp.Twenty-one hips(75%)had an excellent result.A 1mm width radiolucent line was found in 1 femoral component without any symptom.Osteolysis and migration were seen in 4 hips(3 in acetabular and 1 in femoral component),which needed re-revision(12.5% failure).Heterotopic ossification developed in 8 hips(31%).The mean polyethylene liner wear was 0.27 mm(range,0.02-0.87 mm)in all and 0.08 mm(range,0-0.25 mm)per year.The wear rate was only correlated with changes of abduction angle of the acetabulum.The coincidence of bone defect classification in AAOS is better than Paprosky.Kaplan-Meier survivorship at 4.6 years was 89% with repeat revision for any reason as the end point and 81% with repeat revision or radiographic loosening as the end point.[Conclusion]Cementless prothesis appears to be a good alternative to other revision systems in revision total hip arthroplasty.Careful intraoperative evaluation of bone deficiency are needed to choose an appropriate prothesis in order to obtain a good outcome.

[Objective]To evaluate the midterm clinical and radiographic results of revision hip arthroplasty by acetabular reinforcement ring (ARR) with impaction bone grafting. [Methods]Revision hip arthroplasty by ARR with impaction bone grafting of 8 hips was performed from May 2001 to December 2006. There were 5 males and 3 females with an average age of 53 years (range, 36~70 years).The mean BMI was 20 (range, 15~28). The mean interval between the primary arthroplasty and revision was 5 to 20 years (mean 6.7 years). The causes for revision were infective loosing in 2 and aseptic loosening in 6. In the 8 hips, 6 hips underwent a revision total hip arthroplasty, 2 hips received replacement of the acetabular component. Consecutive radiographs were compared to evaluate component conditions and the influence of bone deficiency to fix the prothesis was analyzed. Harris hip scores (HHSs) were determined before surgery and at the most recent follow-up examination. The Kaplan-Meier survivorship analysis was used to estimate the probability of survival of the prothesis.[Results]Seven hips were available for complete clinical and radiographic analysis. One patient died for myocardial infarction. The mean follow-up period was 4.5 years (range, 1.5~7.1 years).The mean preoperative Harris hip score of 30(range, 20~64) points improved to 88 (range, 74~94) points at the time of final follow-up, the pain and function socre improved from 13.8 and 11.5 to 40.3 and 39.9 respectively. All patients had severe limp before revision. At the time of final follow-up, 5 patients still had slight limp and 1 patients had moderate limp.Five hips had an excellent result. Infective osteolysis and migration were seen in 2 hips, which need re-revision. Heterotopic ossification developed in 2 hips . Kaplan-Meier survivorship at 4.5 years was 63% with repeat revision or radiographic loosening.[Conclusion]ARR with impaction bone grafting is an effective approach to treat massive acetabular bone defect in revision hip arthroplasty, the midterm result is acceptable, but any possible reason for infection must be monitored.

Objective To study the effect of 5-lipoxygenase(5-LOX) inhibitor nordihyroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) combined the selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor Celecoxib on the apoptosis of human colon carcinoma cell line HT-29. Methods Different concentration of NDGA and Celecoxib combinations were used to process cancer cell, and thiazolyl blue tetrazlium bromide (MTT) and phase contrast microscope and Annexin V/PI fluorescence staining and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were used to study the proliferation inhibited effect and apoptosis induced effect caused by combination of NDGA combined Celecoxib. Results MTT results showed that the viability of NDGA group, Celecoxib group and the group of NDGA combined Celecoxib (0.432±0.024,0.425±0.013,0.303±0.014 vs 0.693±0.018,t＝18.79,25.75,37.64,P＜0.01) was obviously lower than control group. The group of NDGA combined Celecoxib was significantly lower than NDGA group or Celecoxib group (t＝10.21, 14.14,P＜0.01). Under inverted phase contrast microscope, cell morphology significantly changed, and the group of NDGA combined Celecoxib changed most obviously. Apoptosis was observed by laser scanning confocal microscope (LSM) after NDGA and Celecoxib were used to process the HT-29. RT-PCR showed that up-regulation of Caspase-3 after treatment, and the combination of two drugs increased the most. Conclusions NDGA combined Celecoxib inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis in human colon carcinoma cell line HT-29, and combined therapy had better effect than that of any drug used separate-ly. The mechanism may be associated with up-regulation of Caspase-3.

Objective To investigate the serotypes of human enterovirus B ( HEV-B) species cau-sing hand, foot and mouth disease ( HFMD) and to analyze the genetic characteristics of VP1 region in cox-sackievirus B2 ( CVB2 ) and coxsackievirus B5 ( CVB5 ) strains circulating in Anyang area during 2011 to 2015. Methods Real-time RT-PCR and semi-nested RT-PCR were performed to identify coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16), enterovirus 71 (EV71) and other serotypes of enterovirus in order to obtain the complete etiologic composition of HFMD. The numbers of HEV-B serotypes and the percentages of specimens positive for every serotype in all enterovirus-positive specimens were calculated. As CVB2 and CVB5 were the pre-dominant serotypes of HEV-B species, five pairs of primers targeting the VP1 regions of CVB2 and CVB5 were designed to obtain the complete nucleotide sequences of CVB2 and CVB5 VP1 regions. The phylogenet-ic trees were constructed based on the VP1 sequences obtained in this study and those submitted to GenBank by using MEGA7. 0 and BioEdit7. 2. The selection pressures on VP1 regions of CVB2 and CVB5 strains cir-culating in China in recent years were evaluated with the online program of DataMonkey. Results A total of 57 specimens that belonged to 14 serotypes of HEV-B species were detected in Anyang area from 2011 to 2015. The 14 serotypes of HEV-B species accounted for 56% of all serotypes of enterovirus and the speci-mens positive for HEV-B species accounted for 3. 06% of all enterovirus-positive specimens. The HFMD ca-ses caused by most of the HEV-B serotypes were sporadic cases. Small outbreaks of HFMD could also be caused by some serotypes of HEV-B such as CVB2 and CVB5. The complete sequences of VP1 region were obtained from 8 CVB2 strains and 9 CVB5 strains. The phylogenetic trees based on the VP1 sequences dem-onstrated that the CVB2 strains were classified into four genotypes ( A-D) . The mean evolutionary distances between different genotypes ranged from 0. 191 to 0. 208 and the similarities in nucleotide sequences ranged from 79. 7% to 85. 8%. The CVB5 strains were classified into 6 genotypes (A-F). The mean evolutionary distances and the similarities in nucleotide sequences between different genotypes of CVB5 strains ranged from 0. 170 to 0. 285 and 76. 0% to 86. 8%, respectively. Strains of different genotypes varied significantly in the residues on positons 157 and 263 in the VP1 region of CVB2 strains and on positions 75, 90 and 95 in the VP1 region of CVB5 strains. All of the CVB2 strains isolated in Anyang area belonged to D genotype and located intensively in one lineage. The CVB5 strains circulated in Anyang area belonged to F genotype and located in two lineages. The selection pressures on CVB2 strains of D genotype and CVB5 strains of F geno-type circulating in China in recent years were 0. 037 and 0. 036, respectively. Six positively selected amino acid sites were found in the VP1 region of CVB5 strains, but no positively selected amino acid site was found in the VP1 region of CVB2 strains. Conclusion HEV-B species was an essential component of the etiologic spectrum of HFMD in Anyang area during 2011 to 2015, of which CVB5 and CVB2 were the predominant se-rotypes. The VP1 region of CVB5 was more complex and active than that of CVB2 over the course of evolution.
