AIM: To isolate peptides targeted binding and internalizing into glioblastoma cell line SWO-38. METHODS: Tumor cells were screened five rounds of whole cell screen through the Ph.D.-12 phage display library. The monoclone specific binding efficiency to the tumor cell was analyzed, and the DNA of phages were extracted, sequenced and translated to the sequences of amino acid. RESULTS: In the phage library after five rounds of screen , 10 of 13 monoclones had highly selective binding to SWO-38 cells. We found two repeated peptide sequences. CONCLUSION: Whole cell screening against tumor cells through random phage peptide library can obtain phage peptides with highly specific binding and internalizing ability. The peptides could be used as a therapy vector for tumor targeted delivery.

Objective To analyze the outcome of patients receiving intrauterine insemination with husband sperm,in order to evaluate the effect of relative factors on pregnancy rate after intrauterine insemination. Methods Ninety-eight infertile couples who received intrauterine insemination in the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from March 2013 to May 2014 were selected as our subjects and 181 cycles were included. The information including clinical factors including maternal age,infertile time,infertile causes, ovulation induction protocol,time of insemination and postwash total motitle sperm(TMS)and pregnancy rate were recorded. Results (1)Totally 26 patients received clinical pregnancies,and clinical pregnancy rate(CPR) was 14. 36% per cycle. With age increase pregnancy rate decreased( χ2 = 1. 654 9,P = 0. 647).(2)The pregnancy rate of the patients was the same within the infertile time( χ2 = 1. 588 5,P = 0. 662).(3)The pregnancy rate of the patients with secondary infertility was lower than that of the patients with primary infertility,but there was no significant difference(χ2 = 0. 923 3,P = 0. 337).(4)The pregnancy rate of ovulation induction cycles was lower than that of nature cycles,but there was no significant difference(χ2 = 2. 222 0,P= 0. 136).(5)Postwash TMS was showed the same trend(χ2 = 0. 643 4,P = 0. 422). Conclusion In terms of intrauterine insemination with husband sperm,age,infertile time,infertile types,ovulation induction protocol and posrwash TMS can affect pregnancy rate,and the effects of various factors should be considered comprehensively in the process of therapy.

Objective To observe the effects of modified Jianpi Yishen Decoction on urinary osteopontin (OPN) in calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis patients after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) or ureteroscope lithotomy (URL);To clarify the mechanism of modified Jianpi Yishen Decoction on the prevention of calcium oxalate kidney stones. Methods Totally 116 calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis patients were randomly divided into trial group (62 cases) and control group (54 cases). The trial group took modified Jianpi Yishen Decoction every other day, while the control group took potassium sodium hydrogen citrate granules three times a day. The concentrations of OPN, urinary calcium and urinary oxalic acid of the patients in the two groups were observed before treatment and 2 weeks and 4 weeks of treatment. Results The concentration of urinary OPN of 2 weeks and 4 weeks of the treatment in the trial group was significantly increased compared with before treatment (P<0.05), and the difference was statistically significant compared with the control group (P<0.05). The concentration of urinary OPN in the control group had no significant change after treatment (P>0.05). The differences in the concentrations of urinary calcium and urinary oxalic acid of the two groups between before and after treatment were not significant (P>0.05). Conclusion Modified Jianpi Yishen Decoction can effectively restrain the formation of the calcium oxalate stones by increasing the level of urinary OPN, which demonstrates effective prevention in the calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis patients after PCNL or URL.

The elderly are a special group, with their unique pathophysiology and disease characteristics.The measures and goals of diagnosis and treatment for the elderly are different from those for children, young and middle-aged people.Taking into consideration of the national and international literature, the insight from our long-term clinical practice and in-depth reflections, the authors have written this article as a reference for our colleagues in geriatric care.

Objective To study the mechanism of overexpression of retinoic acid receptor alpha( RARα)in attenuating renal interstitial fibrosis(RIP)in rats. Methods Porty 6_week_old male SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:sham operation group,model group,negative control group and transfection group,with 10 rats in each group. Rats in model group were separated and double ligated with left ureter;rats in sham operation group were not li_gated with ureter;rats in transfection group and negative control group were transfected with adeno_associated virus and negative control virus carrying RARα gene on the basis of model group,respectively. All rats were sacrificed 2 weeks later. Left kidney tissues were taken for pathological examination and RIP index was calculated. The expression of colla_genⅣ(Col_Ⅳ)and fibronectin(PN)in renal tissue was detected by using immunohistochemistry. The expressions of RARα,prohibitin(DHB)and transforming growth factor_beta 1(TGP_β1)in renal tissue were detected by using real_time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction( RT _qDCR)and Western blot.

Objective To explore the effect of overexpression of retinoic acid receptor α(RARα)on epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition(EMT)induced by hypoxia in renal tubular epithelial cells(NRK-52E).Methods The RARα lentivirus vector and negative control lentivirus vector were synthetised.The NRK-52E cells were divided into 4 groups:the normal control group,the hypoxia model group,the transfection group and the negative control group.Puro-mycin(2 mg/L)was added in transfection group and negative control group for screening after gene interference for 72 h.Then the 2 groups were subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation,but the normal control group had no treatment. The change of cellular morphology was observed by using light microscope;the mRNA and protein expressions of RARα, E-cadherin,α -smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)in NRK-52E cells were detected by adopting reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)and Western blot after hypoxia for 48 h.Results (1)Light microscope re-vealed that cells in both hypoxia model group and negative control group cells became atrophic and elongated,which were consistent with the morphology of myofibroblasts.But cells in transfection group cells were cubic,forming an epi-thelial monolayer.(2)Compared with the normal control group,the mRNA and protein expressions of RARα and E-cadherin in hypoxia model group were dramatically reduced(mRNA:0.58 ± 0.12 vs.1.00 ± 0.00,0.11 ± 0.00 vs. 1.00 ± 0.00,t= -0.63,767.30,all P<0.05;protein:0.63 ± 0.12 vs.1.62 ± 0.16,0.44 ± 0.22 vs.1.27 ± 0.08,t=8.61,6.19,all P<0.05),but the mRNA and protein expressions of α-SMA were higher(3.47 ± 0.83 vs.1.00 ± 0.00,1.39 ± 0.16 vs.0.64 ± 0.10,t= -5.01,-6.91,all P<0.05).(3)The mRNA and protein expressions of RARα and E-cadherin in the transfection group were significantly increased,compared with hypoxia model group(mRNA:4.69 ± 1.34 vs.0.58 ± 0.12,0.23 ± 0.00 vs.0.11 ± 0.00,q=9.13,25.48,all P<0.05;protein:1.39 ± 0.19 vs. 0.63 ± 0.12,0.87 ± 0.09 vs.0.44 ± 0.22,q=7.92,4.30,all P<0.05)and negative control group(mRNA:4.69 ± 1.34 vs.0.55 ± 0.21,0.23 ± 0.00 vs.0.12 ± 0.01,q=9.20,23.35,all P<0.05;protein:1.39 ± 0.19 vs.0.65 ±0.18,0.87 ± 0.09 vs.0.39 ± 0.21,q=7.71,4.80,all P<0.05).Conversely,the mRNA and protein levels of α-SMA were obviously lower in transfection group(1.52 ± 0.34 vs.3.47 ± 0.83,4.05 ± 0.81,0.82 ± 0.13 vs.1.39 ± 0.10,1.17 ± 0.10,q=4.88,6.33,7.50,4.61,all P<0.05).The difference in mRNA and protein expressions of RARα,E-cadherin,α-SMA between the hypoxia group and the negative control group had no statistical significance (all P>0.05).Conclusion Overexpression of RARα could alleviate EMT of renal tubular epithelial cells induced by hypoxia.
