Chinese Journal of Clinical and Experimental Pathology 2015;(1):48-51
Purpose To study the expression of zeb-1 and c-jun in gastric cancer and its influence of occurrence and development of tumor. Methods The expression zeb-1, c-jun and E-cadherin were assessed in 100 specimens of gastric cancer and their tissue adja-cent to cancer by immunohistochemistry. Results The positive rates of zeb-1,c-jun and E-cadherin expression in gastric cancer were 81%, 70%, 35%, and in tissue adjacent to cancer were 17%, 25%, 100%. The expression of zeb-1 and c-jun in gastric cancer were higher than those in their tissue adjacent to cancer (P<0. 05). zeb-1 expression was closely correlated with the degree of tumor differentiation, depth of invasion, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage (P<0. 05), which were not correlated with patient s age, sex and tumor size. c-jun expression was closely correlated with the degree of tumor differentiation (P<0. 05), which were not correlated with other pathological features. The expression of zeb-1 was negatively correlated with the expression of E-cadherin and was positively correlated with the expression of c-jun in gastric cancer. Patients with high expression of zeb-1 and c-jun had lower five-year survival rate than patients with negative expression. Conclusion zeb-1 and c-jun are closely correlated with occurrence and development of gastric cancer. They can be a index of judging prognosis of gastric cancer.

Objective To report the experience in diagnosing gastroenteric tuberculosis under en-doscopies, and arose enough attention to avoid missed or mis-diagnosis. Methods Biopsy is taken when lesions, such as gastroenteric mucosal protrusions, nodule, erythema and ulcer are found under endoscopies. Results In 7 cases studied, 2 of them are the gastric tuberculosis (1 ulceration, 1 proliferation) , the rest, colonic tuberculosis (4 proliferation and 1 mixed). Distribution of lesions: gastric antrum 2, each one in terminal ileum, ileocecal valve, terminal ileum plus ileocecum, terminal ileum plus pan colon, and ascending colon. Endoscopic diagnosis: colonic tuberculosis with infiltrative tuberculosis in both lungs 1; colonic malignant tumors 2, mucosal protrusions and ulcerative lesions with undefined nature 4. Caseous necrotic granu-lomas are found in all cases on pathological examination. Conclusion The various appearances of gastroenteral tuberculosis under endoscopies are hard in differentiating from those of colonic carcer, inflammatory bowel diseases ( Crohn' s disease etc. ) , gastric benign or malignant ulceration. The definite diagnosis of gastroenteral tuberculosis is greatly depended on pathological results.

Objective To elucidate the effect of ischemic preconditioning(IPC)on regional fluidity of myocardial cell membrane during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods Seventy-five felines were randomized into three groups: Group A (CPB group,n =25),in which CPB was conducted without aortic cross-clamping (ACC);Group B (IR group,n =25),with 60min ACC followed by 60min reperfusion,and cardioplegia used during period of ACC;Group C (IPC group,n =25),with protocol similar to that of group B except for three-cycle IPC applied before ACC. Electron spin resonance (ESR) technique was employed to monitor membrane regional fluidity of cardiomyocyte during CPB in all groups. Results Regional fluidity of myocardial cell membrane kept unchanged in CPB group and markedly decreased during ACC and reperfusion periods in IR group. Though the regional fluidity of myocardial cell membrane during ACC and reperfusion periods in IPC group was slightly decreased compared to CPB group,it was significantly higher than that in IR group. Conlusion IPC can protect myocardial cells from ischemia and reperfusion injury by maintaining the fluidity of myocardial membrane during CPB.
