Objective To explore whether storage time and temperature influence the measurement of blood clotting functional parameter,in order to ensure accuracy of result.Methods 60 anticoagulated blood samples were selected.The levels of APTT,PT,TT and FIB were detected immediately after separated plasma,at 1 h,2h,and 4h after keeping at room temperature,at 4h,12h,24h after keeping at-4℃.Part of anticoagulated blood samples were separated plasma and detected 2h after keeping at room temperature.Results Compared to measurement for immediately separated plasma,APTT,PT,TT and FIB showed no differences for 1 h,2h after keeping at room temperature and 4h,12h,24h after keeping at-4℃.But the result for 4h after keeping at room temperature showed bad accuracy.Conclusion In the measurement of coagulation indices,after collecting blood sample,separating plasma should be conducted as soon as possible.The separated plasma should be measured within 2h after keeping at room temperature and 24h after keeping at-4℃.

Objective To investigate the myocardial injury induced by bile duct obstruction and the protective effects ulinastatin(UTI). Methods Dynamic observation of of the levels of malondialdyhyde(MDA) and superoxide dismutase(SOD) of myocardial tissues, and the levels of serum TBil, alkaline phosphatase(ALP), MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase(CK MB), endotoxin (ET), and tumor necrosis factor(TNF ?) in bile duct obstruction(BLD) rats and UIT treatment rats. The left ventricles of the rats were obtained for light and electronic microscopic observation . Immunohistochemical staining method of ABC used was to locate the expression and distribution of TNF ? in myocardial tissues. Results After ligation of the common bile duct, serum TBIL, ALP, CK MB, ET, TNF ? levels and myocardium MDA gradully increased, while SOD levels gradually decreased, and the expression of TNF ? in myocardium increased. As compared with BDL group at the same phase, in UIT group, serum TBIL, ALP, CK MB, ET, TNF? levels and myocardium MDA in UTI treated groups decreased, while myocardium SOD increased, and the expression of TNF ? in myocardium decreased.Myocardial injuries of bile duct obstruction were aggravated as time progressed, and there were less myocardial injuries in UTI treated groups than in BDL groups at the same stage as shown with light and electronic microscopic observation.Conclusions UTI can effectively protect the myocardium from ET,TNF ? and free radical injury in bile duct obstucion rats.

Objective To investigate the effects of different general anesthesia protocols on immune function in patients with oral malignant tumor. Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients undergoing elective radical operation for oral malignant tumor were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 20 each): group Ⅰ total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA); group Ⅱ combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia (IV-INH) and group Ⅱ inhalational anesthesia (INN). Anesthesia was induced and maintained with propofol and remifentanll in group Ⅰ; with sevoflurane,propofol and remifentanil in group Ⅱ and with sevoflurane and remifentanil in group Ⅲ. Peripheral venous blood samples were taken at 30 min before (To) and 1 h (T1), 3 h (T2 ) and 5 h (T3) after induction of anesthesia, the end of operation (T4 ) and at 24 h (T5 ), 48 h (T6 ) and 72 h (T7) after operation for determination of the percentages of T lymphocyte subsets (CD3+ , CD4+ , CD8+ , CD4+/CD8+ ratio). Natural killer (NK) cells (CD16+ ,CD56+ ) and B lymphocyte (CD19+ ) with flow cytometer. Results The percentages of CD3+ , CD4+ , NK cells, B lymphocyte and CD4+/CD8+ ratio were significantly decreased during and after operation at T1-5 in all groups and the percentges of CD3+ ,CD4+ ,NK cells and CD4+/CD3+ ratio were decreased at T6 in groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ as compared with the baseline values before anesthesia at To. The percentage of CD4+ cells and CD4+/CD8+ratio were significantly lower during anesthesia at T2,3,6 in group Ⅱ than in group Ⅰ . The percentages of CD4 +and NK cells and CD4+/CD8+ ratio were significantly higher after operation at T4,5 in group Ⅱ than in group Ⅲ.The percentages of CD3 + , CD4 + , NK cells and CD4 +/CD8 + ratio were significantly lower at T2-6 in group Ⅲthan in group Ⅰ . Conclusion TIVA with midazolam, propofol and remifentanil has less impact on immune function than inhalational and combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia in patients with oral malignant tumor under-going elective radical operation.

Objective To investigate the effect and possible mechanism of curcumin on the proliferation and apoptosis of cell strain of bladder carcinoma.Methods In curcumin group,T24 cells were treated with curcumin of 1,10,100 ?mol/L respectively,while no curcumin treatment in control group.The growth,apoptosis,AKT1 protein activity and mRNA level,caspase 3 content of T24 cells were observed by MTT,TUNEL,RT-PCR,immunoblot and image analysis technology 12,24 and 48 h after the commencement of curcumin treatment.Results In the curcumin group,the inhibition rate,apoptosis and the content of caspase 3 of T24 cells increased significantly.The activity of AKT1 protein decreased,but the mRNA level of AKT1 showed no changes.Conclusion Curcumin can inhibit the growth of T24 cells and induce the cell apoptosis,which mechanism is related to the inhibition of AKT1 signal pathway of T24 cells.

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features of oral melanotic neuroectodermal tumor of infancy (MNTI). Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the clinical and pathological data of 13 cases of oral MNTI treated in Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology from 1980 to 2007. Results: The age of patients ranged from 2 to 7 months old. Nine lesions occurred in the maxilla, 3 in the mandible and 1 in the cheek. The most common symptom of the disease was swelling. Five tumors were found purple-reddish or blue-blackish. The neoplasm grew rapidly. Only 1 case was diagnosed as MNTI and 3 cases were diagnosed as malignant tumor before biopsy. Two of 9 cases with follow-up information recurred in one month after surgery and 1 case dead of the tumor. One case with remnants of tumor did not recur after 19 years postoperatively. Conclusion: Oral MNTIs appear to occur in certain locations and people of certain age. Special attention should be paid to the color of the tumor during intra-oral examination. This tumor grew rapidly and invasively and the patients require close follow-up within the first 6 months postoperatively. The pathologic differential diagnosis of MNTI should include other pe-diatric "small round cell" neoplasms. Conservative excision is the preferred treatment choice.

Objective: To investigate the inhibitory effect of survivin antisense oligonucleotide (ASODN) on the expression of survivin gene and proliferation of human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line SMMC-7721. Methods: The 20 mer antisense oligonucleotide (ASODN) targeted to the promoter region of survivin mRNA was designed and synthesized. The expression of survivin gene in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line SMMC-7721 was blocked by means of ASODN transfection mediated by DOTAP liposomal reagent. The changes of survivin protein and mRNA expression after transfection were as-sessd by Western blot and in situ hybridization, respectively. The apoptotic rate was detected by flow cytometer. The changes of cell adherent rate, cell growth activity, and the inhibitory rate of cell growth were also studied. Results: The expression of survivin protein and mRNA were decreased markedly after survivin ASODN transfection. Meanwhile, the cell adherent rate also decreased markedly while the apoptotic rate increased markedly. Conclusions: Transfection of ASODN targeted to the promotor region of survivin mRNA by DOTAP liposomal transfection reagent could down-regulated the expression of survivin protein and mRNA significantly in 7721 cell line and inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells. Survivin could be an important target in the therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of the peripheral blood monocyte human leukocyte antigen-DR (mHLA-DR) for assessment of degree of severity and the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods A case-control study was conducted. Eighty-six AP patients admitted to Shandong Liaocheng People's Hospital from June 2014 to May 2015 were enrolled. Patients were classified into four groups [mild (n = 33), moderate (n = 25), severe (n = 16), critical (n = 12)] according to the disease classification. Eighty healthy persons subjected to physical examination center of our hospital at the same time were served as controls. Acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) scores in patients were estimated. Flow cytometry was used to measure the expression of the peripheral blood mHLA-DR, and the Pearson method was used to analyze the relationship between the level of mHLA-DR and the APACHE Ⅱ score. The receiver-operating characteristic curve (ROC) was plotted, and then the clinical value of the peripheral blood mHLA-DR was analyzed for the diagnostic value in AP patients. Results The expression of the mHLA-DR in patients with AP was significantly lower than that of healthy control group [(63.7±18.6)% vs. (86.4±8.3)%, t = 5.319, P < 0.001]. The expression levels of the mHLA-DR in mild group, moderate group, severe group, and critical group were (79.6±6.5)%, (66.4±9.4)%, (49.9±8.1)%, (32.5±12.0)%, respectively, and the APACHE Ⅱ score were 4.67±1.99, 5.88±2.05, 9.06±2.62, 12.33±3.96, respectively. Pair wise comparisons were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The HLA-DR expression level in the peripheral blood of patients with AP was negatively correlated with the APACHE Ⅱ score (r = -0.695, P < 0.001). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of mHLA-DR expression in peripheral blood for AP was 0.894 [95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.847-0.941, P < 0.001], and the cut-off point was 84.40%, with the sensitivity of 75.0%, the specificity of 90.7%, and the accuracy rate of 83.1%. The AUC of mHLA-DR expression for mild AP was 0.938 (95%CI = 0.889-0.987, P < 0.001), and the cut-off point was 72.70%, with the sensitivity of 87.9%, the specificity of 88.7%, and the accuracy rate of 88.4%. The AUC of mHLA-DR expression for severe and critical AP was 0.943 (95%CI = 0.881-1.005, P < 0.001), and the cut-off point was 57.85%, with the sensitivity of 84.0%, the specificity of 96.4%, and the accuracy rate of 90.6%. Conclusions The expression levels of the peripheral blood mHLA-DR in AP patients can reflect the degree of disease, and contribute to the diagnosis of AP. The value of mHLA-DR may be used as a new biological indicator in the diagnosis and assessment for the severity of AP.
