The abnormal changes of tumor suppressor genes such as deletion mutant,transcription inactivation or silence on human chromosome 3p (pter) are considered as a key step which is closely related to the tumorigenesis of several kinds of cancers,especially clear cell renal cell carcinoma,one kind of renal cancer.And on this basis,it has been confirmed that the deletion and downregulation of multiple 3p genes such as VHL,RASSF1A,SEMA3B,SETD2,PBRM1,NPRL2 and so on,play a vital important role in the tumorigenesis and development of clear cell renal cell carcinoma.And they provide a further way to explain the molecular mechanism of the tumorigenesis of kidney cancer.However,when the regulatory pathway and mechanism research of some genes are known to us,the other genes,especially those newly founded,which are still not clear and need to be further investigated.

BACKGROUND: The functional gene fragments integrate into gene vector, which is then transfacted into target cells or joint cavity, through the transgenic target cells continue to secrete a large number of functional gene product, local therapeutic concentrations could be maintained within a long period of time, thus repairing articular cartilage injury. OBJECTIVE: To transfect rabbit articular chondrocytes using recombinant retroviral vector-mediated transforming growth factor-βl (TGFβ_1) in vitro, and to observe its expression and its effect on biological characters of chondrocytes. METHODS: Rabbit chondrocytas were isolated by use of trypsin digestion method. Vector was PLNCX_2 Hind Ⅲ/Not Ⅰ doubly digested and dephosphorylated, connected with some multiple cloning sites and RFP gene following pDsRed_2 double digestion, to build PLNCX_2-RFP. TGFβ_1 gene was amplified from the PGEMT-TGF and connected with PLNCX_2-RFP following double digestion, to build PLNCX_2-TGFβ_1-RFP. Subsequent to packaging retroviral vector, viral supernatant titer was detected. The cultured and transfected chondrocytes in rabbit knee joint were divided into 3 groups: control group (without any transfection), transfected PLNCX_2 group and transfected PLNCX_2-TGFβ_1-RFP group, continued screening 2 weeks to observe the cellular changes. Cell supematant transfected stably were collected for detecting the effect of gene transfection on the chondrocytes with NO detection kit, ELISA assay was applied to determine human TGFβ_1 expression in cell culture supernatant. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The recombinant gene PLNCX_2-TGFβ_1-RFP was identified correct sequence by the enzyme digestion sequencing TGFβ_1 and RFP, which showed that the eukaryotic expression vector PLNCX_2-TGFβ_1-RFP had been successfully built as expectation. They were then transfected into packaging calls and cultured, the virus titer was defined as 1×10~6 CFU. Following stable transfection of cartilage cells, red fluorescence can be observed, proving successful transfection. After continuous screening 2 weeks, the scattered adherent calls formed positive clones, and gradually diffusely integrated, cell clusters appeared with common dual cores, the calls proliferated actively. NO concentration in the transfected PLNCX_2-TGFβ_1-RFP group was higher than that of transfected PLNCX_2 group (P < 0.05), no difference was significant between control group and transfected PLNCX_2 group. The control group and the group transfected PLNCX_2 showed no TGFβ_1 expression, while TGFβ_1 concentration was (28.08±3.73) ng/L in the transfected PLNCX_2-TGFβ_1-RFP group. PLNCX_2 ratroviral vector-mediated human TGFβ_1 can be effectively transfected into rabbit knee joint cartilage cells and obtain stable expression, while the transfected cartilage calls proliferate actively.

To give the considerations on the syndrome differentiation and acupuncture treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy, generalize its pathogenesis and summarize treatment rules, this paper reviews and analyzed 52 articles on acupuncture treatment in recent years. It is believed that diabetic peripheral neuropathy is rooted from qi-yin deficiency and presented with blood stasis and collateral obstruction; many organs are affected, the liver, kidney,spleen and stomach in particular; the treatment principle concentrates on unblocking collaterals and regulating organs; treatment centers on limb acupoints, Back-Shu point and Front-Mu point;acupuncture treatment should be adopted early as possible and its clinical efficacy is rather good.

OBJECTIVETo study the therapeutic efficacy of manipulative reduction and percutaneous pin fixation for the treatment of severely displaced distal tibial fractures in children.

METHODSFrom May 2009 to December 2012,56 children with severely displaced distal tibial fractures were analyzed, who had been treated with manipulative reduction and percutaneous pin fixation. Preoperative fractures were confirmed as severely displaced fractures by X-ray apparatus. There were 33 boys and 23 girls,ranging in age from 3 to 14 years, with an average of 10.1 years. All the fractures were closed without vascular or nerve injuries. According to the bone fracture type, under C-arm fluoroscopy, functional reduction was achieved by manipulative reduction. The fractures were fixed with percutaneous pins. Postoperative X-ray confirmed the functional reduction. Follow-up indexes were recorded: intra-operative and postoperative complications,postoperative radiographic examination, lower extremity length and range of ankle motion. Ankle score system of Teeny was used to evaluate ankle function.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 3 to 46 months, with an average duration of 19.4 months. According to the Teeny score standard, 35 patients got an excellent result, 7 good and 3 fair. Pin track reaction was found in 4 cases. The X-ray showed all the fractures healed without shortening deformity or epiphyseal arrest at early stage. All the patients could participate in the normal physical activities, having a normal range of motion and excellent strength of the ankle joint.

CONCLUSIONThe method of manipulative reduction and percutaneous pin fixation is a safe and convenient treatment for severely displaced distal tibial fractures in children. It has several advantages as follow: micro-trauma, tiny tissue damage, firm fixation, and the patients can exercise the function of ankle early, suggesting that it is an effective treatment method.

OBJECTIVETo compare efficacy of unilateral external fixators and locking compression plates in treating type C fractures of the distal radius.

METHODSFrom January 2009 to June 2010, 76 patients with distal radius fracture were treated with LCP and external fixators, 54 patients were followed up. Among them, 29 cases were male and 25 cases were female with an average age of 45.31 (ranged, 24 to 68) years old. There were 29 patients in LCP group. According to AO classification, 8 cases were type C1, 7 cases were type C2 and 14 cases were type C3. There were 25 cases in external fixators group. According to AO classification, 6 cases were type C1, 8 cases were type C2 and 11 cases were type C3. Radial height, volar tilt and radial inclination were compared, advanced Gartland-Werley scoring were used to assessed wrist joint function after 6 and 12 months' following up.

RESULTSTwo cases were suffered from nail infection in external fixators group. Fifty-four patients were followed up from 12 to 24 months with an average of 21.3 months. Radial height was (9.60 +/- 0.72) mm, volar tilt was (9.55 +/- 0.80) degrees and radial inclination was (21.40 +/- 0.78) degrees in LCP group,while those were (9.40 +/- 0.70) mm, (9.47 +/- 0.71) degrees and (21.20 +/- 0.73) degrees in external fixtors group, and with no statistical significance (P>0.05). Advanced Gartland-Werley score after 6 months' following up was 3.31 +/- 1.17 in LCP group, 5.56 +/- 1.58 in external fixtors group, and with significant difference (t=-5.99,P<0.05); after 12 months' following up, advanced Gartland-Werley score was respectively 2.66 +/- 1.01 and 3.08 +/- 1.00, but with no statistical meaning (t=-1.55, P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONLCP and external fixtors can receive good curative effects in treating type C distal radius fracture, and LCP can obtain obviously short-term efficacy, while there is no significant difference between two groups in long-term results. For serious distal radius comminuted fracture which unable to plate internal fixation, external fixators is a better choice.
