Objective:To explore the infuence of calf spleen extractive injection combined with chemotherapy on immune function of the patients after colorectal carcinoma. Methods:Totally 128 cases of postoperative colorectal carcinoma patients were randomly di-vided into two groups with 64 ones in each. The control group only received FOLFOX 4 regimen, while the study group received calf spleen extractive injection additionally from the first day to the tenth day, 10ml, ivd, and 14-day was one cycle. After 4 weeks, im-mune function, peripheral blood leukocytes ( WBC) , hemoglobin ( Hb) and platelet ( Plt) in the two groups were compared, and the adverse reactions were evaluated as well. Results: After the treatment, CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 + and CD4/CD8 were increased in the study groups, and those in the study group were much higher than those in the control group (P<0. 05). After the treatment, there were no significant changes in WBC, Plt and Hb in the two groups (P>0. 05), while WBC and Plt in the study group were higher than those in the control group (P<0. 05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the study group was lower than that in the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion:Calf spleen extractive injection combined with chemotherapy not only can increase the immune func-tion, but also alleviate myelosuppression and gastrointestinal toxicity in the treatment of postoperative colorectal carcinoma patients.

0.05).Conclusion these results suggest that ?_2-AR 16、27 locus genetic polymorphism is not correlated with asthma.

Objective To investigate the changes of uveoscleral pathway by an I1 receptor agonist,moxonidine,and with pretreatment of antagonists topical administration,and to study the mechanism that moxonidine improves uveoscleral outflow.Methods Moxonidine was administered unilaterally and topically to rabbits and with pretreatment of the antagonists,namely,prazosin,yohimbine and efaroxan.FITC-BSA,a tracer agent,was injected into the anterior chamber after moxonidine treatment or with pretreatment of the antagonists.Frozen sections were undertaken at different time points between 2 to 10 h.Fluorescence intensity was observed in the sites of uveoscleral pathway in the sections by fluorescence microscopy.Results Bilateral fluorescence intensity treated with moxonidine was more intense than that with placebo,and the most intense regions of fluorescence were ciliary body and superchoroidal space.Fluorescence intensity by prazosin pretreatment was not significantly different compared to that by moxonidine,while yohimbine and efaroxan pretreatment decreased the intensity compared with moxonidine(P

AIM:To explore the protective effects of riboflavin on the kidney in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats.METHODS:Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:normal control group,diabetic model group and riboflavin-treated group.Diabetes was induced by a single injection of STZ (dissolved in 0.01 mol/L citrate buffer,pH 4.5,65 mg/kg,ip) in rats.The biochemical methods were used to measure the contents of urine protein and malondialdehyde in the kidney,and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in serum and renal tissues.Furthermore,the protein expression of TGF-?1 and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1) in renal cortex was detected by Western blotting.The morphological changes of renal tissue were observed under microscope.RESULTS:Compared to the diabetic model group,riboflavin significantly increased the activities of SOD and CAT (P

Objective To study the influence of postnatal high protein feeding on learning and memory abilities of preterm rats.Methods After weaning,the SD offspring were divided into 6 groups randomly according random digits table:preterm standard protein group (group A),term standard protein group (group B),preterm low protein group (group C),term low protein group (group D),preterm high protein group (group E),and term high protein group (group F),with 34 rats in each group.Starting from 22 days of age,the standard protein group,low-protein group and the high-protein group were respectively fed with a standard protein diet (containing 18％ protein),low-protein diet (containing 8％ protein) and a high-protein diet (containing 30％ protein) until the end of experiment.Within each group,the rats were respectively tested in 6 weeks and 8 weeks.Morris water maze task was performed to assess the learning and memory abilities of the premature rats.Results 1.Directional navigation experiments:(1) At the age of 6 weeks,the escape latencies to find the platform were shortened with increased training times for full-term rats.The escape latencies of the premature rats did not change significantly on the third and fourth day of the experiment.(2) At the age of 8 weeks,the escape latencies to find the platform were shortened with increased training time for all of the rats.2.Probe trial test:(1)At the age of 6 weeks,premature rats spent significantly less time in target quadrant than full-time rats.And the percent age of traveled distance in target quadrant of premature rats was significantly less than full term rats (P ＜ 0.05).(2) At the age of 8 weeks,group E [(68.48 ± 20.65) s] spent significantly greater time in target quadrant than group A and group C [group A(52.41 ± 11.24) s,group C (49.54 ± 11.04) s].And the percent age of traveled distance in target quadrant of group E [(36.56 ± 10.44) ％] were significantly higher than group A and group C [group A (29.83 ± 8.33) ％,group C (26.97 ± 5.41) ％] (P ＜ 0.05).(3) At the age of 8 weeks,group E spent time in target quadrant and the percent of traveled distance in target quadrant [(68.48 ± 20.65) s,(36.56 ±10.44)％] were higher than group F [(61.29 ± 16.27) s,(35.71 ±6.61)％],but there was no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions In the early growth and development process of the brain,premature birth may seriously affect early brain functions in rats,and the learning and cognitive abilities of the premature rats are worse than full-term rats.In the subsequent process of growth and development,after a long time of high protein nutritional intake,the learning and cognitive abilities of the premature rats can be restored and they can catch up with full-term rats.

Objective To study the effect of curcumin on the radiosensitivity of the human papillary thyroid cancer cell line TPC?1, to investigate the signaling pathway probably targeted by curcumin, and to provide new insights for the development of radiosensitizers for thyroid cancer. Methods The human papillary thyroid cancer cell line TPC?1 was treated with curcumin and radioactive iodine. CCK?8 assay, colony formation assay, and flow cytometry were used to evaluate cell proliferation, colony formation ability, and cell apoptosis, respectively. Western blot was used to measure the expression of p50, p65, and apoptosis?related proteins, Bcl?2 and Bax. Cell proliferation, colony formation ability, and cell apoptosis were determined again after the activity of the NF?κB signaling pathway was blocked by a NF?κB signaling pathway inhibitor PDTC. Results After treatment with curcumin and radioactive iodine, the human papillary thyroid cancer TPC?1 cells had reduced cell proliferation and colony formation, an elevated apoptosis rate, downregulated expression of anti?apoptotic Bcl?2, and upregulated expression of pro?apoptotic Bax in a dose?dependent manner. These results indicated that curcumin enhanced the radiosensitivity of TPC?1 cells. Curcumin inhibited the activation of the NF?κB signaling pathway in the TPC?1 cells treated with radioactive iodine. When the activity of the NF?κB pathway was blocked by PDTC, cell proliferation and colony formation were reduced and the apoptosis rate was increased, indicating an enhanced radiosensitivity of TPC?1 cells. Conclusions Curcumin is likely to target the NF?κB signaling pathway. It regulates the radiosensitivity of thyroid cancer cells by inhibiting the activity of the NF?κB signaling pathway.

Objective To retrospectively study the risk factors of aortic arch calcificationand its influence on the survival prognosis of maintenance peritoneal dialysis patients. Methods One hundred seventy-seven cases of maintenance peritoneal dialysis patients were enrolled, including 66 cases of aortic arch calcification cases. Their general dialysis data were collected for the evaluation of dialysis adequacy and residual renal function, and their chest X-rays were recorded to assess the degree of aortic arch calcification. The two variables Logistics regression was used to analyze independent risk factors of aortic arch calcification; Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to analyze the influence on prognosis of dialysis patients; and multivariate COX regression was employed to analyze independent risk factors of death in dialysis patients. Results Among the 177 selected cases of peritoneal dialysis patients, 66 cases (37.29%) presented with aortic arch calcification. Elevated serum phosphorus was an independent risk factor of aortic arch calcification (OR=54.69 ,95%CI:10.01-298.65, P<0.01). The probability of survival in patients with mild and moderate (severe) calcification of aortic arch was less than those without calcification. Moderate (severe) calcification of aortic arch was the independent risk factor of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease mortality, whose hazard ratios in patients with calcification were 3.779 times and 5.636 times of those in patients without calcification respectively. Conclusions Hyperphosphatemia is an independent risk factor promoting the development of calcification of aortic arch. The probability of survival in patients with mild and moderate (severe) calcification of aortic arch is less than those without calcification; moderate (severe) calcification of aortic arch is the independent risk factor of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease mortality.
