2.Mechanism of programmed cell death of renal proximal tubular cells induced by cisplation
Journal of Jilin University(Medicine Edition) 2006;0(04):-
Objective To study the signal pathway of apoptosis of renal proximal tubular cells (RPTC) caused by cisplatin for prevention of toxic effects of cisplatin on kidney. Methods pcDNA3.1/Hygromycin vector and pEGFP-C3 vector including Bcl-2(Bcl-acta,Bcl-cb5 and Bcl-nt) were co-transfected in RPTC.After treated with cisplatin, Bax was activated,cytochrom C release and apoptosis were analyzed with confocal microscope and immunofluoresence technique. Apoptotic cells stained with Hoechst33258 were also counted and statistically analyzed. Results The percent of cytochrom C release (35.74%) in Bcl-cb5 transfected group was higher than those in Bcl-nt group (18.7%) and Bcl-acta group(24.6%)(P
3.Advances in Neuroprotective Effects of Estrogen
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2008;16(5):365-369
Most epidemiological investigations and basic studies have demonstrated that estrogen has neuroprotective effects,and the application of estrogen in cerebrovascular disease has a positive attitude.However,large clinical trials of the application of estrogen have indicated that harms outweigh benefits,and even have the risks of stroke.This article reviews the related studies about the neuroprotective effects of estrogen from the positive and negative aspects.

To investigate the role of ERC,6 gene in the growth rate and antifungal susceptibility,Aspergillus fumigatus strain with extra copies of ERG6 gene was constructed.Open reading frame (ORF) of putative ERG6 gene was searched in A.fumigatus genome.A PCR fragment, ERG6 ORF sandwiched by its flanking sequences (about 1 kb respectively),was amplified and was then subcloned into vector pRG-AMA1- NotI to produce a recombinant plasmid pERG6,which was further transformed into uracil auxotroph A.fumigatus strain AF293.1 to produce the transformant AF-pERG6.In the same time,empty plasmid pRG-AMA1-NotI was also transformed into A.fumigatus strain AF293.1 to produce the transformant AF-empty as a control.Radial growth of the transformants was tested on minimal medium (MM) and YAG medi- um.Antifungal susceptibilities of these resahing transformants,AF-pERG6 and AF-empty,to the common antifungal agents were performed by using both disk diffusion and broth microdillution methods.A.fumigatus genome contains a ERG6 gene,of which the ORF size is 1 256 bp.Comparing to Candida albicans and Sacchromyces cerivisiae sterol methyltransferase,A.fumigatus Erg6p had 57% and 50% identity, and had 70% and 63% similarity in amino acid sequences,respectively.Radial growth of transformant AF-pERG6 was slower than that of transformant AF-empty.The antifungal susceptibilties of transformant AF-pERG6 to the antifungal drugs itraconazole,voriconazole,terbin- aline,amphotericin B,caspofungin and grisefolvin were same to that of transformant AF-empty.In A.fumigatus,extra copies of ERG6 gene have no effect on antifungal susceptibilities to itraconazole,voriconazole,terbinafine,amphotericin B,caspofungin and grisefolvin.Radial growth of A.fumigatus harboring extra copies of ERG6 gene becomes slower compared to the control.

Objective To determine the key points in surgical treatment of Mirizzi syndrome in the olderlys. Methods Clinical data of 12 cases of Mirizzi syndrome treated in our hospital from 1995 to 2004 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Only 6 cases were definitely diagnosed by ERCP and ultrasounography before operations. Three cases were treated with cholecystectomy, 7 cases with cholecystectomy and T-tube drainage of common bile duct, 2 cases with cholecystectomy and Roux-Y hepaticojejunostomy. Conclusions It is still difficult to diagnose Mirizzi syndrome preoperatively. Appropriate operative patterns should be selected according to different types of Mirizzi syndrome.No patient death during operations.The patients were followed 1-10 years, average was 3.2 years. No bile duct stricture was found.

Objective To observe the curative effect of Yiqi Congming Decoction on tinnitus and deafness. Methods From May 2015 to May 2017 in the first affiliated hospital of Tianjin university of traditional Chinese medicine 74 cases of tinnitus and deafness patients, all patients were diagnosed as tinnitus, deafness, and has been hearing examination, examination and imaging examination of tympanic membrane. All patients were treated with Yiqi Congming decoction, 2 weeks for a course of treatment, a total of 3 courses of treatment. The therapeutic effect of the patients was observed. Results After 3 courses of treatment, 44 cases were markedly effective (59.46%), effective in 22 cases (29.73%), ineffective in 8 cases (10.81%), and the total effective rate was 89.19%. At the same time, follow-up studies were conducted on patients with significant efficacy and no recurrence was observed. Conclusion The method of Yiqi Congming decoction has better curative effect in the treatment of tinnitus and deafness.

Objective To evaluate the value of preoperative spiral CT (SCT) scanning in the diagnosis and staging of middle-late stage rectal carcinoma. Methods The results of SCT scanning of 34 patients with middle-late stage rectal carcinomas were compared with the pathological examination results and the findings of surgical operation. Results SCT could display the manifestations of middle-late stage rectal carcinoma, such as rectal wall thickening, local tumor mass, tumor invasion of rectal circumference, narrow rectal cava, lymph node enlarging (diameter≥10mm) and tumor distant metastasis. According to Duke's staging, the overall accuracy of SCT staging was 70.6%, and for the stages B1, B2, C, and D the sensitivity was 83.3%, 50%, 66.7%, 78.5%, and the specificity was 62.5%, 44.4%, 57.1%, 100%, respectively. According to TNM staging, the overall accuracy of SCT was 73.5%, and for the stages T2, T3, T4 the sensitivity was 85.7%, 61.5%, 78.6%, and the specificity was 54.5%, 66.7%, 100%, respectively. Conclusion Preoperative SCT could display the invasive range of middle-late stage rectal carcinoma and the tumor lymph nodes metastasis, especially distant metastasis, and had a definite diagnostic value.
