[Objective] To screen the anticancer fraction from extract of root of Adina rubella Hance.[Methods]To separate the water extract from root of Adina rubella Hance by different solvens,then determine their anticancer activities of the different extracts in vitro with MTT method.[Results]The ethylacetate extract strongly inhibited cell proliferation of LS174T,and showed significant dosage-dependent response while the butanol extract and the chloroform extract showed low anticancer activities in vitro.[Conclusion]The ethylacetate extract is the principal anticancer extract from root of Adina rubella Hance.

Object To study the chemical constituent and the bioactivity in the bark of Tsoongiodendron odorum Chun Methods By bioactive following method, the extracts of both EtOAc and n BuOH in the bark of T odorum were screened for in vitro anti tumor activity Results Five constituents were obtained Among them, three from EtOAc fraction belonged to germacranolides They were costunolide (Ⅰ), parthenolide (Ⅱ) and dihydroparthenolide (Ⅲ) The other two were from the fraction of n BuOH, one was an oxoaporphinoid alkaloid, liriodenine (Ⅳ), and the last was a furanone, 2, 3 dihydroxyl 2 methyl butylrolactone (Ⅴ) Conclusion All the above five compounds are found for the first time from this plant Compounds Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅳ, and Ⅴ show the cytotoxic activities against a variety of tumor cell strains, respectively

Objective To compare the clinical efficiency between laparoscopic and open complete mesocolic excision for right-sided colon cancer.Methods Between January 2011 and August 2012,a total of 134 patients with right-sided colon cancer who underwent CME at Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command were divided into laparoscopic (71) and open (63) groups.The intraoperative parameters,pathology,postoperative course and short-term outcomes were compared between groups.The chi-test and the student t test were used for statistics.Result There were no significant differences in the length of distal (P=0.427) and proximal margin (P=0.515),tumor diameter (P =0.440) and number of lymph nodes dissected (P =0.377).Postoperatively patients were followed for up to 12 months,no significant differences were found in local regional recurrence rates (4.2％ vs 1.6％) (P =0.622) and distal metastasis rates (5.6％ vs 3.2％) (P =0.684) between the two groups.The mean operative time (P =0.134) and postoperative complication rate (P =0.977) were similar.The mean intraoperative blood loss was less (P =0.000),bowel flatus passed earlier (P =0.000) and hospital stay shorter (P =0.000) in laparoscopic than that in open group.Conclusions Laparoscopic CME has the same oncologic clearance effects and short-term follow-up result compared with open CME for right-sided colon cancer,and laparoscopic CME is minimally invasive,less bleeding,less pain and quick recovery.

Objective To investigate the expression of integrin avβ3 in both of hepatic stellate cell (HSC)and fibrotic liver tissue,and to demonstrate whether integrin avβ3 is a phenotypical receptor of activated HSC.Methods HSC were isolated from Sprague-Dawley rats and activated by prolonged cultural.The rats were injected with 175 mg of thioacetamide twice a week for 12 weeks to induce liver fibosis.The expressions of avβ3 and a-SMA were identified by immunocytochemical staining.The expression of avβ3 in HSC,normal and fibrotic tissues were examined by real-time PCR and Western blot.Results The expression of avβ3 in activated HSC were up regulated and levels of mRNA and protein were increased to 18 and 5.2 folds on day 14 compared with day 1 and were also higher than control(t=2.39,P＜0.05;t=2.74,P＜0.05).The immunochemistry staining showed that integrin avβ3 was expressed on membrane of activated HSCs.The avβ3 and a-SMA were expressed in portal vein in normal liver,but were also expressed in portal and fibrotic.Conclusions The integrin avβ3 is up-regulated in activated HSC both in vitro and in vivo.It is a phenotypical receptor of activated HSC which involved in liver fibrosis.

Objective To analyze the incidence of cerebral vasospasm (CVS) in patients with traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage(t-SAH), time windows of CVS as well as the risk factors. Method A total of 98 patients,with t -SAH admitted from June 2007 to December 2008, were enrolled for this prospective study. The hemodynamics of middle cerebral artery (MCA) in these patients was monitored with trancranial Doppler (TCD) daily for 7 days after admission and on the 14th day of hospital stay. The incidence of cerebral vasospasm (CVS) in patients with traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (t-SAH) ,time windows of CVS as well as the risk factors were analyzed. Results Of them, 41 patients (41.8%) had CVS. The flow velocity of MCA in patients with GCS≤ 8 was significantly higher than that in patients with GCS≥9. Classified by t-SAH cumulative blood Hijdra method, 2(4.44%) of 45 patients(45.9%)with scores 6 or less,9 (29.0%)of 31 patients (37.8%) with scores 6～ 13,and 8 (36.4%) of 22 patients (20.0%)with scores 13 or more had CVS. Severe CVS occurred in 13 (35. 1% )of 37 surgical patients (37.8%), and local cerebral infarction occurred in four surgical patients after symptomatic treatment. The flow velocity of the MCA was significantly higher in surgical patients than that in non-surgical patients 3 days after admission. Conclusions The severity of original trauma, bleeding, location of t-SAH and operation are the major risk factors to lead to CVS in patients with t-SAH. Attention should he paid to those risk factors during the treatment of patients with t-SAH.

Objective To investigate the effect of antisense telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) on 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) induced proliferation and cell cycle of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs). Methods PASMCs were cultured and divided into four groups: control group (cultured in RPMI-1640 culture medium), 5-HT group (cultured in culture medium containing 5-HT), antisense oligonucleotide (ASODN) group (cultured in culture medium containing 5-HT and ASODN TERT), and sense oligonucleotide (SODN) group (cultured in culture medium containing 5-HT and SODN TERT). The apoptosis of PASMC was observed by fluorescence microscopy with Hoechst staining. Apoptosis and cell cycle was analyzed with flow cytometry. Expression of proliferated cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was determined by immunohistochemistry staining. Results Hoechst staining showed that apoptosis in 5-HT group (161?33) was significantly higher than that in control group (63?16, P
