Objective To investigate the effects of polysaccharide from Sargassum fusiforme on blood-lipid and antioxidation ability in hyperlipemia rats.Methods The hyperlipemia rats as the experimental animal were established by feeding with fat-rich forage,meanwhile the rats were ig SFPS at doses of 0.4、0.8、1.6g?kg-1for 4wk.The levels of blood-lipid and the indices of antioxidation ability which include the total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),lipid peroxidation(LPO),malonaldehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD) and glutathion peroxidase(GSH-Px) were determined.Results and Conclusion SFPS could significantly reduce the contents of TC,TG,LDL-C,LPO and MDA.In the mean time,SFPS increased the content of HDL-C and enhanced the activities of SOD and GSH-Px.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression characteristics of Caspase-8 in gastric carcinoma tissues and its correlation with clinical pathological features.Methods The mRNA and protein of Caspase-8 in gastric carcinoma and its surrounding tissues were detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry,respectively.ResultsThe Caspase-8 mRNA in gastric carcinoma tissues was obviously lower than that in its surrounding ones (0.154±0.065 vs 0.394±0.107,t =14.04,P ＜0.01),which was correlated with lymph node metastasis,tumor stage,differentiation grade (P＜0.01).The Caspase-8 protein in gastric carcinoma tissues was also significantly lower than that in its surrounding ones (31.48％ vs 85.19％,x2 =32.04,P ＜ 0.01),which was correlated with tumor stage,differentiation grade (P＜0.05).ConclusionsCaspase-8 is low-expressed in gastric carcinoma,which may play an important role in the occurrence and progression of gastric carcinoma.

Objective To analyze the disposition characteristic of LGT fingerprints and the related fingerprints for advanced gastric carcinoma patients when the LGT fingerprints changing. Methods SELDI and CM10 protein chip was used to detect the serum protein fingerprints of 81 cased of advanced gastric cancer patients. After 1 year follow-up, all the patients were detected by SELDI again. According to the expression condition of LGT fingerprints, the patients were divided into 4 groups: A group(LGT changing from negative to positive) 25 cases, B group (LGT changing from positive to negative) 15 cases, C group (LGT fingerprints keeping negative) 29 cases and D group (LGT fingerprints keeping positive) 12 cases. The influencing factor should be rejected. And the remaining fingerprints were LGT fingerprints' subtypes and therelated fingerprints. The different proteomic fingerprints were analyzed by Biomarker Wizard 3.1 Software.Results After rejecting the influencing fingerprints, the up-regulation fingerprints in A group were 11473, 11821, 11664, 11409, 11552 and 11947 (M/Z), and no down-regulation fingerprints. In B group, 3264 was upregulation, and 6523, 11509, 11669, 11413, 11351 and 6483 were down-regulation. In C and D group, there was not statistically differential protein fingerprint. Conclusion M/Z up-regulating fingerprints including 11473, 11821, 11664, 11409, 11552 and 11947 can be regarded as the subtype of LGT when it changing from negative to positive; down-regulating including 11509, 11669, 11413 and 11351 can be regarded as the subtype of LGT when it changing from positive to negative; 3264 up-regulating and 6523 and 6483 downregulating can be regarded as the related fingerprints when LGT changing from positive to negative; and when LGT keeping negative or positive in patients with advanced gastric cancer, there was no differential protein fingerprints.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the perioperative prophylactic utilization of antibiotics in cataract patients in ophthalmology department of our hospital.METHODS:100 cases of cataract surgery in 2009 were randomly collected from our hospital.Category of antibiotics,administration time point,medication time,wound healing and drug costs in hospitalization period were analyzed statistically and the rationality of above indexes was evaluated.RESULTS:100 cases all received prophylactic antimicrobials by local and systematic administration in the perioperative period(100%).Drugs for systematic administration contained Levofloxacin(n=67,67%),Cefuroxime sodium for injection(n=25,25%),Clindamycin phosphate injection(n=2,2%) and Ceftazidime for injection(n=6,6%).63 cases were only given drugs 30 min before operation(63%);12 cases were given medicine 30 min before operation and within 24 h after operation(12%);above situation accounted for 75%.25 cases were given medicine before operation and within 24 h after operation(25%),in which the average medication duration was 2.5 days and the longest was 4 days.CONCLUSION:The irrational use of drugs in our hospital manifests inappropriate selection and too long use of antibiotics after operation.The interference of perioperative prophylactic utilization of antibiotics should be reinforced and it is urgent to intensify consciousness of physicians about rational use of antibiotics in perioperative period.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effective mechanism and side effects of thalidomide to multiple myeloma (MM).

METHODSTen cases of MM were studied, of which 3 were previously untreated and 7 refractory or relapsed. Bone marrow microvascular density (MVD) was detected by factor-VIII related antigen and CD(34) immunohistological staining and serum concentration of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) before and after treatment was determined by ELISA. The initial dosage of thalidomide was 100 approximately 200 mg/d with a weekly escalation of 50 mg/d to 450 approximately 650 mg/d. The therapeutic effectiveness is classified into partial remission, improvement and uneffective according to the decrease of serum M protein and bone marrow myeloma cells. Anemia, renal function and blood electrolytes were also observed.

RESULTSBefore treatment, MVD was 73.32 +/- 28.80 and 32.30 +/- 12.50 in MM and control group, respectively, (P < 0.01). MVD in MM group decreased to 56.12 +/- 19.34 after treatment, and was of significant difference (P < 0.05) as compared to the pretreatment value. However, there was still a significant difference as compared to control (56.12 +/- 19.34 vs 32.30 +/- 12.50, P < 0.01). The concentration of VEGF significantly decreased after treatment [from (178.23 +/- 26.56) ng/L to (78.48 +/- 19.98) ng/L, P < 0.01)]. The total effective rate was 70%. There were no serious side effects.

CONCLUSIONMVD and VEGF concentration were decreased obviously by thalidomide treatment. The dosage of 450 approximately 650 mg/d might be effective in refractory or initial MM.
