microRNAs (miRNAs)are endogenous non-coding RNAs,which play important roles in the regulation of gene terms.miRNAs affect almost every physiological process of the body,and many diseases are related to the disorders of miRNAs.Current studies show that the abnormal expressions of miRNAs are closely relate to the tumorigenesis,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of gastric cancer.So miRNAs can be used as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for the gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the myocardial protective effects of rosuvastatin in patients with unstable angina pectoris undergoing coronary stent implantation.Methods Patients (90 cases) with unstable angina pectoris undergoing coronary stent implantation in No.215 Hospital of Shanxi Nuclear Industry from January 2014 to May 2016 were divided into observation group and control group,45 cases in each group.Patients in the observation group were treated with rosuvastatin,and patients in the control group were treated with atorvastatin.The levels of CK-MB,cTnⅠ,h-FABP,hs-CRP,TNF-α,INF-γ,IL-6,IL-10,and IL-18 were compared between two groups.Adverse drug reaction and major adverse cardiac events of two groups were recorded.Results After 24 h operation,the levels of CK-MB,cTnⅠ,hs-CRP,TNF-α,INF-γ,IL-10,and IL-18 of two group were significantly higher than those before operation (P ＜ 0.05),and those in observation group were significantly lower than control group (P ＜ 0.05).There was no difference in h-FABP between two groups before and after operation (P ＜ 0.05).The level of IL-6 in the observation group after operation was higher than that before operation,but the difference was not significant (P ＜ 0.05);The level of IL-6 in the control group was significantly higher than that before operation and that of observation group (P ＜0.05);The rates of drug adverse reactions and major adverse cardiac events were similar in two groups.Conclusion Compared with same doseatorvastatin,the effects of rosuvastatin in muscle damage and inflammatory response are better,and do not increase adverse reactions.

[Objective]To observe the degradation process of PDLLA in the intervertebral fusion.[Method]Twenty goats were divided into 4 groups as experimental group,and their L_(3~4)intervertebal spaces were implanted with PDLLA cage containing pieces of graft bone.Animals were sacrificed at 4,8,12,16 wks and specimens were taken for observation of the degradation process and bone fusion by gross observation and electronic microscope.Another 12 goats were used as normal fusion control group.Their L_(3~4)space were grafted with bone block for fusion.[Result]The degradation rate was non-lineal.In the early stage of fusion,the main degradation and decrease of molecular weight was shown at the superficial decomposition.With the proceeding of fusion and degradation,as the kydrolyzation speeding-up,internal decomposition by self-catalyse resulted into the collapse and total disassemble of the PDLLA.The PDLLA cage maintained its shape in the early stage and its biomechanical strength decrease in late stage but was still enough to keep the structure from collapse,till the fusion was achieved in the bone implant area.[Conclusion]The velocity of degradation of PDLLA is slower than the speed of bone regeneration of bone fusion,so the PDLLA cage could provide sufficient support during the process of intervertebal fusion and is a suitable choice of degradative material for cage in the intervertebal fusion.

Objective To observe the role of vascular endothelium growth factor (VEGF) in promoting vascular reconstruction and bone repair in the necrotic region of femoral head in rabbits. Methods The femoral head necrosis model was made by liquid nitrogen frozen. The necrotic femoral head was transfected by adenovirus human VEGF121 (Ad-hVEGF121) to observe the bone formation in subchondral necrotic region by means of histological method, measure BMD value by SPA-2 analyser and measure bone trabecular morphology by image analysis. Results Revascularization level, bone formation rate, bone quality and quantity and mineralization level in subchondral necrotic region of gene transfection group were significantly higher than the control groups that had more subchondral bone resorption compared with gene transfection group. Conclusions VEGF may have effect in promoting bone formation and revascularization in subchondral necrotic region of femoral head, indirectly protecting the necrotic bone trabecula from being absorbed and avoiding descending of subchondral mechanics function.

Objective:To test the validity of the computer-added measure system in pre-clinical practice training of root canal treatment with resin transparent tooth models.Methods:Two groups of students prepared resin transparent tooth models in three ways.Transparent root canal preparation was conducted by the first group, blind root canal preparation and blind followed by transparent preparation were conducted by the second group. Resin transparent tooth models were scanned frontally and laterally before and after the preparation. The computer-added measure system was used to evaluate the effect of instrumentation. The data was analyzed by SPSS 10.0 software.Results:It was helpful to understand the change of root canal shape and the problems in instrumentation by using the computer-added measure system with resin transparent tooth models in pre-clinical practice training. The transparent preparation resulted in lower frequency of the preparation defects(P

Objective To estimate the effects of nasal continuous positive airway pressure(nCPAP)therapy on patients with OSAS in prethrombotic state.Methods One group of 30 patients with OSAS who were diagnosed from Sep.2003 to Sep.2005,one healthy control group of 30 cases.Blood samples were taken from people in the supine position in the morning immediately after overnight polysomnography and nCPAP theraphy(only in OSAS group).Results Compared with the normal controls,the level of the molecular marker GMP-140 increased in the blood of patients with OSAS,the levels of APTT,AT-Ⅲ decreased,and the level of t-PA decreased as well.The level of PAI increased.Compared with the healthy controls,datum indicated statistical differences between the two groups.Datum of the patients with OSAS were improved after nCPAP therapy:AHI decreased from 63.21?23.23 to 0.56?0.84;the nocturnal lowest of SaO_2 increased from 0.68?0.07 to 0.90?0.02;GMP-140 and PAI decreased to (17.07?7.97)% and (95.83?5.91)% respectively;AT-Ⅲ and t-PA increased to(95.20?6.67)% and (5.45?1.61)?g respectively.Conclusion Prethrombotic state is present in patients with OSAS.nCPAP therapy can decrease OSAS-related thrombotic complications.

Objective To study the effects of tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?) on hypermetabolism of skeletal muscle protein in rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) and explore the mechanisms. Methods Forty-five SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group,COPD group and COPD +TNF-? group(n=15).Rat COPD models were established by passive cigarette smoking in COPD group and COPD +TNF-? group.After dissecting and isolating the extensor digitorium longus(EDL) muscles,the EDL muscles were either cultured with media containing 10 ug/L recombinant rat TNF-? or without TNF-?.The subsequent changes in ubiquitin mRNA and protein levels were determined by real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot,respectively. Results The expressions of ubiquitin mRNA and protein of COPD group and COPD+TNF-? group were higher than those of normal contro1 group(P
