Objective To investigate the effect of inhibiting the expression of Navl. 8 sodium channels by an antisense oligodeoxynudeotide(ODN) on visceral hypersensitivity. Methods The visceral hypersensitivity animal models induced by giving neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats colorectal distention(CRD) after postnatal days 8, 10 and 12. Animals were injected intrathecally either Navl. 8 antisense ODN (research group) or mismatch ODN (control group) twice a day for 3 days at the 8th week. After that, the expression of Navl. 8 in each group was examined by RT-PCR, and abdomiral withdrawal reflex(AWR) score and spinal c-Fos expression were evaluated to assess whether the intervention can relieve the visceral hypersensitivity. Results After intrathecal injection with the antisense ODN, the expression of Navl. 8 in each group decreased.AWR score and the number of c-Fos positive neurons in the spinal cord, especially in the area 1 and 3, decreased in the model group, while they did not change in the control group. Conclusions Interventing the expression of Nav1.8 may relieve the visceral hypersensitivity in this model of irritable bowel syndrome.

The pollution of surface water and ground water caused by pharmaceuticals and personal care products(PPCPs) can directly affect the quality of drinking water.The sources of PPCPs and the routes to the drinking water were introduced briefly in the present paper.The removal efficiency of PPCPs in different unit processes applied in drinking water treatment was discussed in detail,including clarify,oxidization-disinfection,advanced treatment and so on.The performances of drinking water treatment unit processes for PPCPs removal were evaluated simply.

Kinetics of municipal sewage degradation in Expanded Granular Sludge Bed (EGSB) and Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) reactors at 10℃ were investigated via continuous experimental equipments. The results indicated that the whole reaction process can be simulated by the first-order dynamic equation model. Dynamic parameters such as k, Vmax and Ks of UASB in hydrolysis acidification stage were 1.08 d-1, 2.8 d-1 and 372 mg/L comparing to those of 1.18 d-1, 3.5 d-1 and 112 mg/L in the methanogenesis stage respectively. The EGSB's k, Vmax and Ks were 2.91 d-1, 14.3 d-1 and 470 mg/L in the hydrolysis acidification stage comparing to those of 1.68 d-1, 6.6 d-1 and 103 mg/L in the methanogenesis stage respectively. Comparison of k values of the two stages in UASB and EGSB indicates that hydrolysis acidification stage is the controlling step for the whole reaction process of UASB, while methanogenesis stage is the controlling step in EGSB. Compared with UASB, municipal sewage treatment by EGSB at 10 ℃ can reach the same effluent requirement with lower retention time due to its effluent recirculation.

Objective To evaluate the application of sentinel lymph node biopsy in surgical operation for clinical stage N0 differentiated thyroid carcinoma.Methods One hundred and six patients who were diagnosed clinical stage N0 differentiated thyroid carcinoma in Department of Mammary Gland Thyroid Surgery of Qingdao Women and Children's Hospital between Jan.2012 and Jan.2013 were reviewed retrospectively.Carbon nanoparticles were used to trace sentinel lymph node in the surgery,the patients were divided into the dissection group (46 cases included 2 cases whose sentinel lymph nodes were not detected) and the non dissection group (60 cases) based on the rapid pathological results.The operation index,complications incidence and short-term outcomes were compared.Result The operative time,intraoperative blood loss and the faulty excision of parathyroid gland in dissection group is much higher than those in non dissection group (P ＜0.05).The incidence of provisionality hypoparathyroidism in dissection group is much higher than those in non dissection group (P ＜ 0.05).There were no permanent hypoparathyroidism and damage of laryngeal nerve in the two groups.Postoperative outpatient follow up was 30 months,no significant differences were seen in local regional recurrence rates(6.5％ vs 10％) between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).There were no distant metastasis occurred in the two groups.Conclusions Lymph node metastasis can be found by sentinel lymph node biopsy,it is helpful for us to decide whether dissect central lymph node or not.Carbon nanoparticles is safe,which is helpful to protect the parathyroid gland.

Objective:To clarify the effect of voltage-gated proton channel 1 (Hv1) on the migration and invasion of breast cancer cells. Methods:The protein expression of Hv1 was detected in human breast cancer cell lines with different metastatic abilities. SiRNA technique was used to down-regulate the expression of Hvl in breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells. Scratch and matrigel invasion methods were used to observe the effect of Hvl on the migration and invasion of breast cancer cells, and the relevant molecular mechanism was explored. Results:Hv1 was highly expressed in the highly metastatic breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231. Hvl was more highly expressed in MDA-MB-231 cells with higher metastatic ability. The SiRNA sequence target at Hvl inhibited Hvl expression. Scratch and matrigel invasion experiments showed that the migration and invasion of MDA-MB-231 cells were significantly attenuated when Hv1 was knocked down by siRNA targeting Hv1. Zymography experiment on matrix metalloproteinase indicated that the enzyme activities of MMP-2 markedly decreased. Conclusion:Hv1 promoted the migration and invasion ability of breast cancer cells.

Objective To look for and confirm the downstream regulated gene of microRNA (miRNA)-148a in pancreatic cancer cell line.Methods The target gene regulated by miRNA-148a was predicted through bio-informatics analysis.The plasmid containing desired gene and with luciferase 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) reporter was constructed.Pancreatic cancer cells BXPC-3 were transfected with analogs and inhibitors of miRNA-148a by liposomes.The activity of luciferase was measured to determine whether miRNA-148a directly connected with desired gene.The expression level of miRNA-148a was changed in BXPC-3 cells,and the changes of target gene v-verb-b2 erythroblastic leukemia viral oncogene homolog 3 (awian) (ErbB3) expression were detected by Western blot at protein level.The data were analyzed by one way ANOVA.Results There was a conservative binding site of ErbB3 with miRNA-148a detected by bio-informatics analysis,miRNA-148a directly combined with ErbB3 and the activity of luciferase decreased to (25.00+47.00) ％ of the negative control (F=4.66,P＜ 0.01).After miRNA-148a overexpression,the gray value of ErbB3 expression in BXPC-3 cells decreased to (26.16±4.69)％ of control group (F=6.563,P＜0.05).Conclusion miRNA-148a directly targeted and regulated the expression of ErbB3 in pancreatic cancer cell line BXPC-3.

Objective To establish a method for isolating and culturing fibroblasts from cirrhotic liver in vitro,observe the biological characteristics of fibroblasts.Methods Human fibroblasts from cirrhotic liver were isolated and cultured by adhering to the culture plastic.The morphologic and growth characteristics of the acquired cells were observed by microscopy imaging and cell counting.The expression of FSP-1 and Vimentin of fibroblasts was detected through immunofluorescence and western blotting.Results The tissue blocks were well-adherent to the culture plastic within 2 hours.Hepatocyte-like cells were observed surrounding the blocks within about 1 week,and spindle-shaped fibroblasts were observed within about 2 weeks.After a series of passage,the attached cells became proliferated quickly.The growth curves of the passage 3,4 and 5 were quite similar.The result of immunofluorescence showed the expression of FSP1 and Vimentin was positive.The positive rate was respectively (90.6 ± 1.0) ％ and (91.2-± 4.1) ％.Conclusions Human fibroblasts from cirrhotic liver can be cultured successfully through adherent property.The method for isolation and culture of fibroblasts from cirrhotic liver is convenient,efficient,stable and cultured cells remain naive biological characteristics.

Objective To investigate the circulating microRNAs carrier in pancreatic cancer.Methods Pancreatic cancer cell lines SW1990 and BxPC3 were routinely cultured and serum of 6 patients with pancreatic cancer and 6 healthy subjects (control group) were collected.Serum and pancreatic cancer cell line supernatant microvesicles (MV) were obtained by gradient centrifugation.The expression of Ago2,CD63 was detected by Western blotting,the expression of microRNA in microvesicle section and microvesicle-free section in serum was detected by using quantitative PCR method.Results The supernatant MV of pancreatic cancer cell lines expressed Ago2,CD63 protein,and these MV carried different microRNAs in different cell lines.In the serum of pancreatic cancer and control group,miR-20a,miR-21,miR-24,miR-25,miR-191,miR-483-5p were detected,but the quantity was relatively higher in MV section,and the expression of microRNAs in pancreatic cancer's MV was inconsistent with that of control group.The expression of miR-20a,miR-24,miR-191 in pancreatic cancer group was (2.93 ± 0.29),(2.73 ± 0.46),(2.39 ± 0.51) times as much as those in control group,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (F =75.97,25.80,12.94,P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01).Conclusions The main circulating microRNAs carrier in pancreatic cancer is microvesicle.

Objective To compare the protective effect of double dose trimetazidine versus standard dose in patients with unstable angina and received PCI. Methods From September 2014 to June 2015,150 unstable angina pectoris patients who underwent PCI in our hospital were enrolled in this study. All the patients were randomized into two groups:the study group (patients given trimetazidine 40 mg tid 24 hours before operation) and the control group (patients given trimetazidine 20 mg tid 24 hours before operation). All patients received standard secondary prevention therapies of coronary heart disease. Comparison in the rates of angina pectoris attacks, ECG changes after PCI, levels of cardiac troponin I ( cTnI), myoglobin (Mb), creatine kinase isoenzyme ( CK-MB) and hs-CRP before and 12 hours after PCI was investigated between the 2 groups. Results Baseline data were comparable in the 2 groups. Rates of adverse drug reaction were lower in the control group, but the difference was not statistically significant (6. 7% vs. 2. 7% , P = 0. 439). There was no statistical difference between the two groups before PCI in terms of levels of cTNI and hs-CRP but was significantly lowered in the study group after PCI as compared to the control (both P < 0. 05 after PCI). The levels of CK-MB and Mb in the study group were lower than those in the control group after PCI, but the difference was not statistically significant. The rates of angina pectoris attacks and the changes in ST-T were less in the study group as compared to the control group without statistical significance. Conclusions Unstable angina pectoris patients receiving double dose of trimetazidine before PCI may enhance myocardial protection and reduce PCI related myocardial injury.
