Purpose:To investigate the relationship between the expression of NF?B family proteins in ovarian cancer cell lines with chemotherapy resistance of ovarian cell lines. Methods:First, 13 ovarian cancer cell lines were cultured, and then protein was extracted separately from cytoplasm and nucleus. Using Western blotting and MTT chemosensitive testing, the relationship between the expression of NF?B family proteins in ovarian cancer cell lines with chemotherapy resistance of ovarian cell was observed.Results:It was found that the expression of positive rate of P65, P50 and IKB in cytoplasm was 76.9%, 81.8% and 84.6% respectively, and the significant positive expression of P65 and P50 was also found in the nucleus, with a rate of 15.3%, 45.5% respectively. In OV MZ 5 and OV MZ 2774, the expression of P65 was positive and their IC 50 reached a significant value. Conclusions:It was concluded that P50 and P65 affected the growth and development of ovarian cancer cells with the effect of P50 being more obvious. P65 had a close relationship with the chemotherapy resistance of ovarian cancer cells, and thus P65 could be expected to be a new marker in the observation of prognosis.

Respiratory diseases are common in the elderly and often the main causes of death among this population. In addition, it is expected that chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, lower respiratory tract infections, lung cancer, and pulmonary tuberculosis will be listed in the top ten diseases in 2020. Therefore, screening, diagnosis and management of respiratory diseases should be strengthened among the elderly; meanwhile, studies on geriatric respiratory medicine should be further enhanced.

Objective To evaluate the outcomes of open reduction and internal fixation of complex tibial plateau fractures with improved three combined approaches.Methods In the period from July 2014 to February 2016,7 complex tibial plateau fractures underwent surgical treatment.These patients included 5 male and 2 female,aged from 24 to 68 years old (average,39.7± 15.3 years).According to Schatzker classification,they were all of type V.And all of type 41B-3.1 by AO/OTA classification.All these fractures were exposed and reduction via three combined approaches.First let the patients lied in lateral prone position,expose the anterolateral and the posterolateral of the tibia1 plateau,and fix the fractures of the posterior in the posterolateral approach,then fix the fractures of the lateral in the anterolateral approach.Then turn the patients to supine position,fix the fractures of the medial in the anteromedial incision.All patients received regular reexamination.The knee function was evaluated at the final follow-up using The Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score,the activity of the knee was evaluated by Lysholm score,and the stability of the knee was checked by Lachmantest and Pivot-shift test.The tibial plateau angle,the posterior slope angle and Rasmussen X-ray score were assessed on the X-ray films.Results The average time of operation is (3.3±0.9) h,and the hemorrhage volume in operation was (341± 106) ml for the 7 patients.The wounds of 6 patients healed by (11.8± 1.3) days,while the wound of the rest one of them occurred fat liquefaction after operation who is very fat (BMI ＞ 30) and suffered from diabetes.His wound healed by 21 days.These patients obtained follow-ups of 8 to 14 months (average,11.4±2.8 months).The average full weight-bearing time was 2-3 months (average,2.5±0.4 months).The fractures healed after 8 to 16 weeks (average,11.1 ±2.8 weeks).No displacement of the fractures or breakage of the implants occurred in our series.Nobody has activity limitation of the knee or pain because of the implant,and no never symptoms were noted postoperatively,so we would not take out the implant for these patients.The mean HSS score was 93.1±4.8 (range,from 85 to 100) at the final follow-up,and the excellent rate is 100％.The Lysholm score was 97.1±3.6 (range,from 90 to 100) at the final follow-up.The Lachman test and the Pivot-shift test were negative in our patients,and the mean knee flexion was 128.6±12.8°(range,from 105°to 140°).The fractures were all anatomical reduction by the X-ray after operation,and there had being no displacement of the fractures or breakage of the implants occurred during the follow-up period.The mean posterior slope angle was 8.29±2.87° (range,from 4 °to 12°),which was 8.71±2.63° (range,from 5 °to 14°) 6months after operation.The mean tibial plateau angle was 86.00± 1.41° (range,from 84 °to 88°),which was 86.43± 1.62° (range,from 84 °to 89°) 6 months after operation.The mean Rasmussen X-ray score was 16.86±1.57 (range,from 14 to 18),which was 16.57±1.51 (range,from 14 to 18) 6 months after operation,and the excellent rate are 100％.Conclusion For the complex tibial plateau fractures which simultaneous involved the medial,the lateral and the posterior,the improved three combined approaches showed the advantages of the convenient operation,the satisfactory results of reduction and fixation,and the less trauma and secondary damage,and could be worth for clinic.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of protective effect of Xuebijing injection on vascular endothelial cells in rats with heat stress.Methods Ninety Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into control, model and Xuebijing injection treatment groups, 30 rats in each group. Heat stress model was reproduced by placing rats in constant temperature box at 40℃, 60% relative humidity for 1 hour, Xuebijing injection group was treated by intraperitoneal injection of Xuebijing 2.5 g/kg, while the control and model groups were treated by intraperitoneal injection of normal saline 2 mL/kg, once a day only in 1 day for both groups. After model establishment, the rectum temperature, heart rate and the mean arterial pressure(MAP) were recorded at 2, 6, 12 hours in each group. At the same time, the rat abdominal aortic blood was collected and serum was separated, the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was used to determine the aortic serum levels of lipopolysaccharide(LPS), nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB) and p53, and the prothrombin time(PT), activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT) and D-dimer of venous blood were detected by automatic blood coagulation analyzer(ACLTOP).Results Compared with those in control group, the rectum temperature, heart rate, LPS, NF-κB, p53, PT, APTT, D-dimer were significantly increased, and MAP was obviously decreased in model group(P<0.05 orP<0.01). Compared with model group, the above indexes were improved significantly in Xuebijing injection treatment group at 2 hours〔rectum temperature(℃): 38.02±0.22 vs. 39.32±0.33, heart rate(bpm): 507±14 vs. 562±35, MAP(mmHg, 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa): 98±6 vs. 87±13, LPS(ng/L): 0.65±0.03 vs. 0.82±0.05, NF-κB(ng/L): 1.10±0.04 vs. 1.33±0.05, p53(ng/L): 1.33±0.03 vs. 1.73±0.02, PT(s):15.47±1.03 vs. 20.28±2.01, APTT(s): 40.26±2.46 vs. 47.46±3.51, D-dimer(μg/L): 238.54±8.32 vs. 323.12±8.14,P<0.05 orP<0.01〕.Conclusion Xuebijing injection can correct the disorders of blood PT, APTT, D-dimer via decreasing the secretion of the levels of NF-κB, p53 from vascular endothelial cells in rats with heat stress, thus the integrity of the vascular endothelium can be protected, and LPS entering into the blood stream can be inhibited.
