Objective To investigate the CT features of pulmonary sarcoidosis.Methods Ninety patients with histologically proved pulmonary sarcoidosis were retrospectively studied by using CT scans and clinical recording.Results The main CT findings of pulmonary sarcoidosis were nodules which were seen in 69 cases(76.7%),and the nodules mostly distributed around the bronchovascular bundle(n=37, 41.1%).Other abnormalities included consolidation(n=31,34.4%),ground-grass(n=39,43.3 %), thickening of bronchovascular bundle(n=30,33.3%),interlobular septal lines(n=58,64.4%), fibrosis(n=17,18.9%)including bronchial distortion(n=8,8.9%),linear shadow(n=5,5.6%), and honeycombing shadow(n=4,4.4%),air-trapping(n=3,5.3%),bronchial straitness(n=8, 8.9%),pleural thickening(n=42,46.7%),and hilar and mediastinal adenopathy(n=76,84.4%). Two or more abnormal findings co-existed in 83 cases.The pulmonary lesions co-existed with hilar and mediastinal adenopathy in 76 cases.The nodules(n=25),consolidation(n=9),ground-grass(n=11), thickening of bronehovascular bundle(n=10)were improved after therapy.Ten cases of the interlobular septal(10/22),0 of bronchial distortion(0/4),1 case of diffuse linear(1/3),and 0 case of honeycombing(0/2)were improved.Conclusion CT manifestations of pulmonary sarcoidosis are varied, but has some specific radiographic features.A correct diagnosis can be made.combined with hilar and mediastinal adenopathy.

Objective To study the relationship among apoptosis,NF-KB activation and uPA expres- sion in human colon carcinoma cell line HCTll6 induced by 5-fluorouracil,and to observe the effect of in- hibiting activity of NF-KB by PDTC on apoptosis as well as expression of uPA.Methods Cell apoptosis was analysed by Annexin V-FITC.Fluctuation of NF-KB and uPA was detected by semi-quantitative immuno- histochemistry.Results 5-fluorouracil could induce apoptosis and activate NF-KB.PDTC could significantly increase the apoptosis and suppress the activation of NF-KB induced by 5-fluorouracil.There was a positive correlation between the changes of uPA and NF-KB.Conclusion 5-fluorouracil could induce apoptosis,ac- tivate NF-KB and up-regulate expression of uPA of HCT116 cells.The mechanism of enhanced apoptosis by PDTC may be related to suppressing activation of NF-?B and down-regulating expression of uPA.

Objective To design and synthesize compounds with protein tyrosine kinase(PTK)inhibitory activity with L029 as the lead compound. Methods L029 derivatives were designed and synthesized from L029 by reduction and/or substitution with the 3-dimethylamino-1-propyl,methyl acetate,methyl propionate in its active H and other sites. PTK activity was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). The inhibitory rate was calculated to screen out the compounds with PTK inhibitory activity. Re-sults Five target compounds were synthesized and their structures were confirmed by 1H NMR and MS. Three compounds T2,T3 and T5 were screened out with strong PTK inhibitory activity. Conclusion The synthetic routes of the target compounds are simple with mild reaction condition,and 3 compounds show strong inhibitory activity by ELISA. These results can provide reference for the further design and synthesis of this kind of molecules.

Objective To design and synthesize novel 2-indolone derivatives as the c-Met kinase inhibitors. Methods With c-Met kinase inhibitor SU11274 as lead compound,a series of 2-indolone derivatives were designed according to the concept of bioiso-sterism. Then the target compounds(10a-10r)were synthesized from 2-indolone through 5-chlorosulfonation with chlorosulfonic acid, sulfonamidation with intermediate 3,condensation with 6a-6h,7a-7h and 4a-4b,respectively. Their inhibitory activity against c-Met and proliferation of MCF-7 cells were evaluated. Results and Conclusion The designed compounds were successfully prepared and their structures were confirmed by 1H NMR and ESI-MS. Some compounds had certain inhibitory activity against c-Met and prolif-eration of MCF-7 cells. An initial structure-activity relationship analysis of these compounds was performed to provide useful informa-tion for further optimization of their structures.

BACKGROUNDSuccessful lung transplantation has been limited by the scarcity of donors. Brain death (BD) donors are major source of lung transplantation. Whereas BD process induces acute lung injury and aggravates lung ischemia reperfusion injury. Carbon monoxide (CO) inhalation at 50-500 parts per million (ppm) can ameliorate lung injury in several models. We examined in rats whether CO inhalation in BD donor would show favorable effects on lung grafts.
METHODSRats were randomly divided into 4 groups. In sham group, donor rats received insertion of a balloon catheter into the cranial cavity, but the balloon was not inflated. In BD-only group, donor rats were ventilated with 40% oxygen after BD confirmation. In BD+CO250 and BD+CO500 groups, donor rats inhaled, after BD confirmation, 250 ppm or 500 ppm CO for 120 minutes prior to lung procurement, and orthotopic lung transplantation was performed. The rats were sacrificed 120 minutes after the lung transplantation by exsanguination, and their blood and lung graft samples were obtained. A total of 8 rats fulfilling the criteria were included in each group.
RESULTSThe inhalation decreased the severity of lung injury in grafts from BD donors checked by histological examination. CO pretreatment reversed the aggravation of PaO2/FiO2 in recipients from BD donors. The CO inhalation down-regulated pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha, IL-6) along with the increase of anti-inflammatory cytokine (IL-10) in recipient serum, and inhibited the activity of myeloperoxidase in grafts tissue. The inhalation significantly decreased cell apoptosis in lung grafts, inhibiting mRNA and protein expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and caspase-3 in lung grafts. Further, the inhalation activated phosphorylation of p38 expression and inhibited phosphorylation of anti-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) expression in lung grafts. The effects of CO at 500 ppm were greater than those at 250 ppm.
CONCLUSIONSCO exerts potent protective effects on lung grafts from BD donor, exhibiting anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptosis functions by modulating the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal transduction.

OBJECTIVETo explicate the spinal nerve source of the rabbit penis cutaneous sensation.
METHODSTwelve adult male rabbits were randomly divided into two groups of equal number. While mechanical stimuli were given to the penis by different von Frey hairs, single fiber activities were recorded in vivo in the left (Group A) and right (Group B) S1-S4 spinal nerves, respectively. The mechanical threshold, adaptability and conduction velocity of the fibers were analyzed.
RESULTSWhen the ipsilateral penis was mechanically stimulated, discharges were detected in S2 and S3 spinal nerve fibers, but not in S1 and S4. The discharge fibers were 39.67 +/- 3.14 (S2) and 21.00 +/- 2.19 (S3) in the left spinal nerve and 40.00 +/- 3.16 (S2) and 19.67 +/- 2.58 (S3) in the right. There was no obvious difference between the numbers of the left spinal nerves and the right ones (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe rabbit penis cutaneous sensation originates from S2 and S3 spinal nerves.

Objective To study the psychological and psychosomatic status of children with pectus exca vatum and the significance of orthotherapy. Method Eighty-seven patients and 87 healthy children were interviewed with the Achenba ch Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL),the symptom Checklist (SCL-90)and the psycho logical and psychosomatic status checklist contrived. Results The children with pectus excavatum showed higher frequency in interpersonal sens itivity, depression,anxiety,obsession compulsion and also more mental difficul ties than those of control group.The differences between the patients and health y children were significant statistically.Conclusions The psychological and psychosomatic status of children with pectus excavatum are worse than those of healthy children,so it is reasonable to perform an operati on earlier for improvement of physiological, psychological ,social aspects in ch ildren with pectus excavatum.
