Objective: To reconstruct a substractive complementary deoxyribornucleic acid (cDNA) library of genes sensitive to mechanical stretch in human osteoblast like cells.Methods: Mechanical stretch at 12 cycles per minute was applied to human osteoblast like cells Saos-2 and the deformation of the stretched cells was 12%. Twelve hours after loading, mRNAs were isolated from both stretched and unstretched cells. Substractive cDNA library of the genes sensitive to stretch was constructed with the technique based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and substractive hybridization. Primary sequencing of clones in the library was carried out. Results: A substractive cDNA library of genes sensitive to stretch was constructed with a capacity of about 200 clones. According to the results of sequencing, most genes in the library were related to the mechanical stimulation. One novel gene fragment was obtained. Conclusion: The method used in the experiment is effective in cloning genes sensitive to mechanical stretch.

6. Norepinephrine increases risk of breast cancer in depressed women
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2019;35(10):1381-1387
Aim To explore the effects of depression on tumors, as well as its molecular mechanisms. Methods The chronic unpredictable mild stress model (CUMS) was constructed. Tumor was inoculated after behavioral test, and the differences in serum norepinephrine and tumor volume between groups were detected. Breast cancer cells were stimulated by administration and invasion, migration, proliferation and cell cycle distribution were detected. Western blot and immunofluorescence were utilized to detect cell surface receptors and intracellular signaling pathways. Results Depression up-regulated the level of norepinephrine (N E) and increased the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK, resulting in increased malignancy of breast cancer cells. Conclusions Depression may increase the malignancy of breast cancer through norepinephrine-induced p38 MAPK signaling pathway, thus increasing the malignant degree of breast cancer.

[Objective] To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Buxin Huoluo Capsule (BHC) for coronary heart disease (CHD) and to explore its anti-lipid-peroxidation mechanism. [Methods] One hundred and seventy-five cases of CHD were treated with BHC and 121 cases with isosorbide dinitrate (ID) . Effects of BHC on angina pectoris, electrocardiograph, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and lipid peroxides (LPO) level were observed. [Results] In BHC group, the total effective rate in relieving angina pectoris was 88.0 % and that in improving electrocardiogram was 80.0 % , the difference being not significant as compared with ID group. As for the reduction of frequency of angina pectoris and the decrease of dosage of nitroglycerin, BHC were superior to ID. Furthermore, BHC decreased LPO level and increased SOD activity, the difference being significant (P

Cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMVR) is the most frequently encountered ocular opportunistic infection in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). In the absence of accurate diagnosis and effective treatment, CMVR can cause different degree of ocular injury and even blindness in AIDS patients. Therefore, the early diagnosis and timely treatment of CMVR is particularly important. This article aims to review the progress in research on the clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment drugs of CMVR.

BACKGROUND: Breast augmentation with polyacrylamide hydrogel injection has been used nearly for a decade in some Chinese medical therapy units. More patients need to be removing injections or a second augmentation due to complications. More attention should be paid for possibility of complications concomitant with breast malignant tumor. OBJECTIVE: Two cases of breast invasive duct carcinoma diagnosed after removing injection were analyzed retrospectively in order to increase the importance of detection rate of breast malignant tumor. METHODS: Two cases in all 41 assembled patients which were removed polyacrylamide hydrogel injections from 82 breasts were diagnosed with invasive carcinoma. The characteristics of medical history, physical diagnosis, image diagnosis and pathological examination were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The detection rate of breast malignant tumor should arise more attention in patients requiring removal of polyacrylamide hydrogel injection. The following aspects should be emphasized such as the comprehensive analysis for the results of physical diagnosis and image diagnosis, tumor-free operation with more samples from suspicious nodules and frozen pathological examination. The principles of cancer surgery should be followed in pathological diagnosed cases in case of iatrogenic metastasis and spread of breast malignant tumor.

Objective To determine the feasibility, safety and techniques of transumbilical single-port laparoscopic liver cyst fenestration. Methods From November 2009 to June 2010, four cases of transumbilical single-port laparoscopic liver cyst fenestration were completed through three adjacent 5 mm trocars around the umbilicus. Normal 5 mm laparoscopic instruments and a 5 mm 30° laparoscope were utilized, and the procedures were similar to conventional multi-port laparoscopic liver cyst fenestration. Results All operations were completed successfully, with no conversion to laparotomy or the multi-port laparoscopic procedure. The mean operation time was 38 minutes (25-70 minutes). All patients were discharged at postoperative days 1-3, and no complications or cyst recurrence occurred during hospitalization and follow-up. Conclusions Transumbilical single-port laparoscopic liver cyst fenestration is safe and feasible. It has the advantages of less pain, cosmetic incision and quick recovery, but is technique-demanding.
