Objective:To investigate the association of XPD rs13181 (codon751A/C, Lys751Gln), rs238406 (codon156C/A, Arg156Arg), XPC rs2279017 (i11C/A), and XRCC4 rs3734091 (codon247T/C, Ala247Ser) polymorphisms with colorectal cancer (CRC) susceptibility. Methods:A total of 338 patients with CRC who were treated at the Beijing Cancer Hospital from April 2013 to January 2016 (case group) and 315 healthy controls (control group) were genotyped using TaqMan technology. Results:The genotype GT and G alleles of XPD rs13181 increased the risk of CRC (GT>TT, adjusted OR=1.69, 95%CI=1.15-2.47, P=0.007;G>T, adjusted OR=1.77, 95%CI=1.19-2.64, P=0.005). The genotype GT and T alleles of XRCC4 rs3734091 increased the susceptibility of CRC (GT>GG, adjusted OR=9.02, 95%CI=5.61-14.50, P<0.001;T>G, adjusted OR=4.06, 95%CI=2.49-6.61, P<0.001). Analyses of XPD rs13181 and rs238406 indicated that the haplotype GT significantly decreased the risk of CRC (adjusted OR=0.39, 95%CI=0.18-0.85, P=0.018). Moreover, the combinations of the XPC rs2279017 G allele and the XRCC4 rs3734091 T allele (adjusted OR=28.43, 95%CI=6.85-117.95, P<0.001) and the XPD rs13181 G allele and the XRCC4 rs3734091 T allele (adjusted OR=10.24, 95%CI=4.69-22.35, P<0.001) exhibited significantly increased CRC risk. Conclusion:The polymorphisms of XPD rs13181 and XRCC4 rs3734091 increased the risk of CRC.

To examine the histological changes of diabetic rats' skin and the effects on the percutaneous absorption of hydrocortisone (HC, a glucocorticoid), male Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups: control group, diabetes one-week group (W1), two-week group (W2), three-week group (W3), and four-week group (W4), while each group contained 6 rats. Diabetes mellitus (DM) rat model was prepared with the method of streptozocin (STZ, 40 mg x kg(-1)) intraperitoneal injection. Abdominal skin was cut to carry out an in-vitro penetration experiment on an improved Franz diffusion cells, and phosphate buffer (PBS, pH 7.4) was used as receptor solution. The solution was analyzed with HPLC, and then the penetrating rate can be calculated. Meanwhile, rats' abdominal skins of different DM periods were HE stained and made into tissue slices to find if any histological changes occurred. The penetrating rate of control, W1, W2, W3, and W4 groups were 2.39 +/- 1.25, 3.22 +/- 1.72, 3.02 +/- 1.89, 3.63 +/- 2.02 and 5.00 +/- 3.36 microg x h(-1) x cm(-2), respectively. There was significant difference between the control and the W4 group (P < 0.05), but no significant differences were found between any other two groups (P > 0.05). The tissue slices showed that compared to the normal rats' skin, little change was observed in one-week DM rats' skin, but the skin of one-month DM rats' skin was observed thinner, and it became much thinner than that of rats with two-month diabetes, especially the epidermis. After making a rat into diabetic, the rats' skin goes through a pathological change, and this change is closely interrelated with the increase of the permeation of HC. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the dose while some drug was applied on the skin in case of diabetes mellitus.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have shown that a certain dose of acidic fibroblast growth factor can promote skeletal muscle satelite cel proliferationin vitro. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of transfection with acidic fibroblast growth factor by electroporation on growth, proliferation and differentiation of skeletal muscle satelite cels. METHODS: Skeletal muscle satelite cels were cultured and purified, and then transfected with plasmid pSectag-GFP-aFGF by electroporation. The expression of green fluorescent protein was observed under fluorescence microscope, and the transfection efficiency was calculated. After transfection, cel cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry to draw the growth curve of skeletal muscle satelite cels. Western blot assay was employed to measure protein level of acidic fibroblast growth factor. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Immunocytochemistry detection: The skeletal muscle satelite cels were positive for a-sarcomeric actin. (2) Transfection efficiency: At 12 hours after transfection with pSectag-aFGF, several cels showed green fluorescence, and the green fluorescent expression reached the peak at 72-96 hours after transfection with a positive rate of about 90%. (3) Cel cycle: After electrotransfection, the proportion of cels at S phase in the electroporation group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). (4) Cel growth curve: At 3 days after electrotransfection, the cels entered logarithmic growth phase but the proliferation slowed down at 5 days. (5) Differentiation capacity: There were fewer myotubes and aging cels in the electroporation group than the control group. (6) Western blot assay: Acidic fibroblast growth factor protein was highly expressed in the cels transfected with target gene detected by western blot assay. These findings indicate that by using electroporation method, acidic fibroblast growth factor can be transferred into skeletal muscle satelite cels and have a high-efficiency and long-term expression, which can promote the proliferation of skeletal muscle satelite cels and inhibit formation of myotubes.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic technique in the treatment of refractory adhesive intestinal obstruction. Methods In a retrospective matched?pair analysis, 68 patients of re?fractory adhesive intestinal obstruction whose relapsed more than 3 times were included in the research. All patients were treated with laparoscopic operation or continued follow?up observation after conservative treatment from Janu?ary 2011 to January 2016. The patients were divided into 2 groups, laparoscopic surgery (32 cases) and observation group (36 cases), to contrast the recurrence rate and safety of the two types of treatment. Results The recurrence rate of laparoscopic surgery group was significantly lower in the observation group (18.8%vs. 77.8%, P<0.05). Re?fractory adhesive intestinal obstruction is further divided into Mixed type, Patchy adhesion type and Cable Belt Com?pression type, in the laparoscopic surgery subgroup analysis, hybrid recurrence rate (66.7%, 4/6 cases) was signifi?cantly higher than that of patchy adhesion type (10.0%, 1/10 cases) and cord compression type (6.3%, 1/16 cases). Conclusion Laparoscopic operation is safe and feasible in the treatment of refractory adhesive intestinal obstruc?tion, and then it can effectively reduce the recurrence rate of refractory adhesive intestinal obstruction;the curative effect is closely related to the type of adhesion.
