Childhood asthma is one of type Ⅰ allergic diseases,and IgE is indispensable factor in development of asthma.IgE-antigen crosslinking of hish affinity IgE receptor(FcεRⅠ)leads to degranulation of mast cell,leukotriene synthesis and cytokine production.As a re8ult.such changes will bring about inflammation of airway and spasm of airway smooth muscle.Recent researches suggest that Src tyresine kinase play a vital role in their combination.This review discusses the regulation and signaling trannduction of FcεR Ⅰ and the relationship between FcεRⅠ and asthma.

Objective To study the expression of RASSF1A gene in gastric cancer tissues and cell lines and to investigate its clinical roles. Methods Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the expression of RASSF1A gene in 39 cases of human gastric cancer tissues and 18 cases of normal human gastric tissues, and RT-PCR was used to examine the expression of RASSF1A mRNA in 4 gastric cancer cell lines, normal gastric cell lines GES-1 and positive control Hela cells. Correlations between expression of RASSF1A gene and clinicopathological characteristics of gastric cancer were also analyzed. Results All the normal gastric tissues (18 cases) were stained with anti-RASSF1A antibody, and significantly lower expression of RASSF1A was found in the 39 cases of gastric cancer tissues (P

OBJECTIVE: Intrafascial vaginal hystrectomy(IVH) is an intrafascial cylindriform enucleation of the cervix and supracervical amputation of the uterus through vagina, leaving the highly vascularized extrafascial cervical tissue and corresponding nerves intact. The supracervical amputation of the uterus through vagina and intrafascial cylindriform enucleation of cervix enable to perform an minimal invasive surgery and organ-preserving surgery. Pelvic floor support is maintained and sexual sensation is preserved. Physical stress to the patient is minimalized. Our purpose is to evaluate the outcomes of IVH. METHOD: 21 patients were performed IVH from January 1996 to July 1998. RESULT: The mean age was 43.4+7.2 years and the mean parity was 2.6+0.8. The mean operation time was 116.1+21.4 minutes and the mean postoperative hemoglobin change was 2.0+1.6gm/dL. The mean postoperative hopitalization time was 8.2 + 2.7days. CONCLUSION: The IVH is an operation technique for the patients who are sexually active and want to remain their uterus.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of mescenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation on Tourette syndrome(TS)model rats.MethodsStereotypies can be successfully induced in rats by intrastriatal microinfusion of TS sera.MSC suspension was bilaterally injected into the striatum.Survival and differentiation of transplanted MSC were tested through immunohistochemical analyses.ResultsFlow cytometry results demonstrated that the cells strongly expressed CD29(95.2％ ),CD105(97.2％ ),CD44(96.3％ ) and CD106 (94.1％).TS rats with MSC grafts exhibited significantly decreased stereotypic behaviors at 10 and 14 days(95.5 ±6.6,73.1 ± 6.5 vs.114.1 ± 6.0,108.0 ± 6.4).Immunohistochemistry analyses revealed survival of transplanted MSC and differentiation into neurons and astrocytes in the rat brain.ConclusionIntrastriatal transplantation of human MSC can provide therapeutic potential for TS.

Objective To investigate the effects of rubella virus R16 infection on heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and heat shock transcription factor 4 (HSF4) in the human embryonic lens epithelial cells in vitro. Methods The human embryonic lens epithelial cells were infected by rubella virus R16 for 3, 7 and 14 days respectively in vitro. Then the mRNA levels of HSP70 and HSF4 were measured by Real-time PCR assays, the HSP70 protein level was detected by Western blot assay, and the DNA sequence of HSF4 was also identified by DNA Sequencing. Results Both mRNA and protein levels of HSP70 were increased dramatically at 3 and 7 days after rubella virus R16 infection in vitro. But mRNA levels of HSF4 were decreased significantly. The DNA sequence of HSF4 had no change in the human embryonic lens epithelial cells at 14 d after rubella virus R16 infection. Conclusions Rubella virus R16 could directly induce the increased expression of HSP70 in the human embryonic lens epithelial cells infected by rubella virus R16 in vitro, which may prevent human embryonic lens epithelial cells from infecting with virus. The heat shock transcription factor may serve as a negative regulator at transcription level. However, the DNA sequence of HSF4 had no change in the human embryonic lens epithelial cells within 14 days after rubella virus R16 infection.

Objective To investigate the corneal posterior surface topography characteristics of keratoconus at early stages applying the Pentacam anterior segment analysis system. Methods The present study included 43 eyes of 43 patients with keratoconus at the subclinical stage (group A), 40 eyes of 40 suspected keratoconus patients (group B), and 143 normal eyes of 143 controls (group C). Based on an examination of the Pentacam anterior segment analysis system of each subject, a series of data, including the posterior surface refractive power, the posterior surface elevation were collected. The differences among the three groups, the correlation among indices, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were analyzed. Results The mean values of the posterior surface maximum refractive power in 3 groups were -6.2 D, Q=0.5;-5.6 D, Q=0.3;and -5.5 D, Q=0.3, respectively. The mean values of the posterior surface maximum elevation were 23 μm, Q=14;11 μm, Q=8.5;and 7 μm, Q=6, respectively. The posterior surface maximum refractive power and maximum elevation among three groups were statistically different. The area under ROC (AUR) of posterior maximum refractive power and the AUR of posterior maximum elevation were greater than that of other indices in the diagnosis of early keratoconus. Conclusions Based on the results from the Pentacam anterior segment analysis system, the changes of the posterior surface refractive power and elevation are important characteristics of early keratoconus.

Chronic pancreatitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the pancreas,whichcan lead to irreversible damage to the morphology and function of the pancreas ultimately.So the early diagnosis and treatment for chronic pancreatitis are very important.And the differentiation between mass-forming chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer is also a difficult problem in clinic.MRI as a noninvasive and nonradiative examination with excellent soft tissue resolution,is very valuable for the diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis.And the combination of functional MRI and conventional MRI is very helpful for the differentiation between pancreatic carcinoma and mass-forming chronic pancreatitis,which is of great significance to the clinical management.The application and progresses of function MRI in the diagnosis and identification of chronic pancrea titis were reviewed in this article.

Aim To observe the effects of Rh2 on the hemodynamics and electrophysiological parameters in anesthetic rats. Methods The changes of hemodynamics and electrophysiological parameters in anesthetic rats were tested after administration with Rh2, such as SAP, DAP, MAP, LVSP, LVDP, LVEDP, ?dp/dt_ max,HR,RRP and ERP. Results Rh2 increased SAP,DAP,MAP,LVSP,?dp/dt_ max with the decrease of LVEDP. It had no distinct effects on HR, ECG, RRP and ERP. Conclusion Rh2 has the effects of increasing SAP,DAP and MAP in anesthetic rats and has no influence on HR, ECG and cardiac ventricle electrophysiological parameter, suggesting that the effect of increasing blood pressure could be related to the increases of peripheral resistance.

Objective To explore the value of hysteroscopy in diagnostic curettage, the incidence of complications and preventive measures in senile women. Methods One hundred and thirteen senile patients who underwent hysteroscopy from January 2002 to December 2007 were recruited in the study, and one hundred and fifty-seven non senile patients were selected as control group. All the patients were operated with diagnostic curettage and hysteroseopy. The success rate of hysteroscopy operation, the incidence of complications and control effect were recorded and compared between two groups. Results The success rate of hysteroscopy operation was 88. 5% (100/113) in the senile group and 100% (157/157) in the non senile group, and there was significant differenee(P <0. 01). The incidence of complications was higher in the senile women group than that in the non senile women group (P< 0. 01). In senile group, the accuracy of diagnostic curettage and hysteroscopy was higher than diagnostic curettage alone, and the success rate was 95.5% (64/67)in estrogen group and 69.6%(32/46) in blank control group (P<0. 01) ,which indicated that estrogen was positively related with the success rate of operation. Compared with misoprostol, estradiol-pretreatment operation was safer and had higher success rate. Conclusions It is safe and feasible to perform hysteroscopy and diagnostic curettage for older women, though it has higher incidence of complications and lower success rate compared with non senile women. Hysteroscopy and diagnostic curettage are more accurate than diagnostic curettage alone, and it is a good choice to apply estradiol before operation.

Oleic acid was injected intravenously into 29 dogs to induce the experimental 'Respiratory Distress Syndrome'. The chest x-ray manifestations of RDS were observed and analyzed. Correlating the x-ray findings with the findings of patho-anatomical examination, which was done on the killed dogs, the authors tried to investigate the pathogenesis of RDS. Meanwhile the diameter of the first branch of either inferior pulmonary artery was measured to determine the variations of the contractions of the pulmonary arteries.Finally the therapeutic effect of anisodamine and dexamethasone was compared. It seemed that the effect of the former was better than that of the latter from our preliminary trial.
