Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of compound glycyrrhizin on alcoholic hepatitis.Methods A total of 65 patients with alcoholic hepatitis were assigned to group A(30 cases) treated with abstinence of alcohol,physical exercise and adjusted diet, and group B(35 cases) treated with compound glycyrrhizin together with the treatment given to group A. Before and after receiving three 4-week treatment periods, all the patients had their liver function tested and received examination of ultrasonic weave type B. Results Group B had significantly alleviated clinical symptoms, and ACT,A ST, GGT in blood serum are significantly lower than group A(P＜0.05).Examination of ultrasonic wave type B on the liver shows significant amelioration and disappearance of symptoms of fatty liver. Conclusion Compound glycyrrhizin can significantly ameliorate the clinical symptoms and improve the liver function of the patients.

Objective To explore the correlation between serum cytokines and the depression degree in the patients with colorec-tal cancer.Methods 9 6 cases of colorectal cancer were selected and divided into 2 groups according to the patients health question-naire(PHQ-9):the depression group (52 cases)and the non-depression group (44 cases),and 40 healthy cases were recruited as the control.Serum interleukin-2 (IL-2),soluble interleukin-2 receptor (SIL-2R)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELSIA).The detection results were compared among various groups.And the correlation be-tween the expression of various cytokines and the depression degree was analyzed by the Pearson′s correlation coefficient.Results The levels of IL-2,SIL-2R and TNF-αhad statistical differences among 3 groups (P<0.05);no statistical difference in the TNF-αexpression was noted between the depression and the non-depression groups (P>0.05),but which in these two groups was higher than that in healthy group (P<0.05);the IL-2 level in the depression group was significantly lower than that in the non-depression group(P<0.05);the SIL-2 R level in the depression group was obviously higher than that in the non-depression group (P<0.05), moreover,which in these two groups was higher than that in the healthy group (P<0.05).By correlation analysis,the depression degree in the patients with colorectal cancer was negatively correlated with the IL-2 level (r=-0.259,P<0.05)and positively correlated with the SIL-2R level(r=0.412,P<0.05).Conclusion The levels of IL-2 and SIL-2R have certain correlation with the depression degree in the patients with colorectal cancer,it is speculated that the above cytokines may play a mediating role in the pathogenesis process of depression in the colorectal cancer patients.

Aim To observe the effect of pinacidil ischemic postconditioning on rat ventricular myocytes during ischemia/reperfusion.Methods Rat acute myocardical anoxia-reperfusion model was used.The cardiac function and electrophysiological properties were surveyed by isolated perfusion and patch-clamp technique,respectively.Results  Compared with those in the control groups,these results demonstrated that anoxia-reperfusion groups in rats could increase PSP and-dp/dtmax markedly while LVDP,+dp/dtmax and HR decreased slightly.Significant difference was found in A/R group;while pinacidil group showed the better recovery of cardiac function after ischemia/reperfusion. using patch-clamp technique,significant difference was found in pinacidil group,including increasing mean open time and conductance value.Conclusion Ischemic postconditioning by Pinacidil(PCOS of KATP)exerts an cardioprotection effect on acute myocardial anoxia-reperfusion injury.

Objective To evaluate the effect of the opioid switch from morphine to sufentanil on the expression of μ-opioid receptors in the midbrain periaqueductal gray (PAG) of rats.Methods Forty healthy male Wistar rats,aged 8 weeks,weighing 250-290 g,were randomly assigned into 5 groups (n=8 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),7 day sufentanil group (group S),7 day morphine group (group M),14 day morphine group (group MM),and 14 day alternate administration of morphine and sufentanil group (group MS).Normal saline 2 ml/kg,sufentanil 0.01 mg/kg and morphine 10 mg/kg were injected subcutaneously in the cervical region twice a day for 7 consecutive days in C,S and M groups,respectively.In group MM,morphine 10 mg/kg was injected subcutaneously in the cervical region twice a day for 14 consecutive days.In group MS,morphine 10 mg/kg was injected subcutaneously in the cervical region twice a day for 7 consecutive days (1st-7th days),and sufentanil 0.01 mg/kg was then injected subcutaneously in the cervical region twice a day for 7 consecutive days (8th-14th days).The tail flick latency (TFL) to a thermal nociceptive stimulus was measured at 15 and 30 min after the initial administration every day.After the last administration,the rats were sacrificed,and the midbrain PAG was isolated for determination of the expression of the μ-opioid receptor and μ-opioid receptor mRNA using Western blot and real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction,respectively.Results Compared with group C,the TFL was significantly prolonged on 1st-6th days after the beginning of administration in M,MM and MS groups,the TFL was significantly prolonged on 1st-7th days after the beginning of administration in group S,and the expression of the μ-opioid receptor and μ-opioid receptor mRNA in the midbrain PAG was significantly down-regulated in M,MM and MS groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group MM,the TFL was significantly prolonged on 8th-14th days after the beginning of administration,and the expression of the μ-opioid receptor and μ-opioid receptor mRNA in the midbrain PAG was significantly up-regulated in group MS (P＜0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which the opioid switch from morphine to sufentanil reduces morphine tolerance is related to enhanced activity of μ-opioid receptors in the midbrain PAG of rats.

Objective To investigate the expressions and significance of cyclinD1 in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Methods The published studies were searched in the Cochrane Library,Embase,PubMed,CNKI,VIP,Wanfang and CBM databas-es,the quality of the included studies was assessed.Revman5.0.1 software was adopted to test for heterogeneity of the selected re-search literature and analyze the correlation of cyclinD1 and OSCC by calculating OR and 95%CI .Results A total of 31 case-con-trol studies were included in the study,the case group (OSCC group)was 1 604 cases and the control group was 864 cases (inclu-ding normal oral mucosa tissue 452 cases and precancerous lesions 412 cases).The Meta analysis of results showed that the expres-sion of CyclinD1 in oral squamous cell carcinoma was significantly higher than normal tissue[OR (95%CI )at 11.92 (6.71 -21.18)].CyclinD1 was related to differentiated degree,lymph node metastasis and clinical stage of OSCC positively(P <0.05),but was not related to age and gender (P >0.05).Conclusion According to the current relevant research,the over expression of cy-clinD1 is closely related to occurrence and development of OSCC,which might be valuable for the early diagnosis,treatment,and prognosis of OSCC.
