Objective To investigate the effects of H_2O_2 on growth and proliferation in CNE-2Z cells.Methods To identify the effects of H_2O_2 on the growth and proliferation in CNE-2Z cells,Cell growth curves,MTT assay and plate colony formation rate were used;Meanwhile,Cell cycle distribution,proliferation index and apoptosis analysis were performed by flow cytometry(FCM) in human NPC cells CNE-2Z in vitro,before and after the action of H_2O_2;the protein expressions of Egr-1,p53,p16,Cyclin D1 were detected by Western-Blotting analysis.Results There were no EGR-1 and P16 proteins expressions in CNE-2Z cells by Western-Blotting analysis before the action of H2O2;the growth and proliferation of CNE-2Z cells were inhibited significantly by H_2O_2 compared with the control cells,and the apoptosis cells were increased.The increased expressions of EGR-1,P53,and Cyclin D1 protein were also shown in CNE-2Z cells by means of Western-Blotting analysis after the action of H_2O_2;but no P16 protein expression;The expression of EGR-1 protein was significant correlation with P53 protein expression,but no significant correlation with Cyclin D1 protein expression.Conclusion There was no EGR-1 protein expression in CNE-2Z cells,and EGR-1 protein can be induced expression rapidly and transiently by H_2O_2,which probably have an important!role in the growth inhibition and apoptosis.The promotor of Egr-1 gene also can be induced activation by radiation(ROS,reactive oxygen species),there is an important application in therapy of NPC and other tumors.

Objective To investigate the expressions and effects of EGR-1, p53, p16, Cyclin D1 in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC). Methods Expressions of EGR-1, p53, p16, and Cyclin D1 protein in paraffin-embedded specimens of 29 chronic nasopharyngitis, 45 NPC and 24 lymph-node metastasis were studied by immunohistochemical method (SABC). Results The positive rates of EGR-1, p16, and Cyclin D1 protein expressions in chronic nasopharyngitis were 44.83 %(13/29), 89.66 %(26/29) and 24.14 %(7/29) respectively, but no p53 protein expression. In NPC, the positive expression rates of the four proteins were 22.22 %(10/45), 91.11 %(41/45), 53.33 %(24/45) and 66.67 %(30/45), with significant difference compared with chronic nasopharyngitis respectively; and in lymph nodes metastasis were 16.67 %(4/24), 79.17 %(19/24), 70.83 %(17/24) and 75.00 %(18/24) with significant difference compared with those of chronic nasopharyngitis and NPC respectively except for p16 protein. Spearman correlation analysis showed that there were no significant correlation between the expression of EGR-1 and p53, p16, Cyclin D1 respectively both in NPC and in lymph nodes metastasis. In NPC, the expression of p53 showed a positive correlation with the expression of p16; and in lymph nodes metastasis the expression of Cyclin D1 showed positive correlation with the expressions of p16 and p53. Conclusions The expression of EGR-1 protein was significantly decreased both in NPC and in lymph-node metastasis, which suggested that Egr-1 gene may be a tumor suppressor gene and have an important effect in the pathogenesis and the progression of NPC. The overexpression of p53 and Cyclin D1 also have an important role in NPC, but p16 probably have no biological significance in NPC.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of intraductal ultrasonography for the quality of biliary stricture.Methods Data of the patients who had received operation because of biliary stricture after IDUS examination from 2006 to 2010 were collected.IDUS results were compared with those of operation.Results There were 43 cases of malignant strictures and 6 benign strictures in total.The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value and diagnostic accuracy of intraductal uhrasonography for the quality of biliary stricture were 97.7％ ( 42/43 ),83.3％ ( 5/6 ),97.7％ ( 42/43 ),83.3％ (5/6) and 95.9％ (47/49),respectively,which were significantly higher than conventional imaging like ultrasound B,CT and MRCP.Twenty one cases in 32 were diagnosed as malignant biliary stricture with cytological brushing,with the diagnostic accuracy of 65.6％.All cases had been diagnosed by IDUS.Conclusion Intraductal ultrasonography is of high diagnostic value for biliary stricture.However,cytological brushing based on IDUS is of limited diagnostic value for malignant biliary stricture.

ObjectiveTo investigate the diagnostic value of single balloon enteroscopy (SBE) for obscure gastrointestinal bleeding.MethodsA total of 78 SBE procedures was conducted on 72 patients with obscure gastrointestinal bleeding,with 40 via oral route and 38 via anal route.The procedure time,insertion depth and rate of positive finding were recorded.ResultsFor 40 SBE procedures performed via oral route,the mean procedure time was 60 minutes ( 15-110 minutes),and the mean insertion depth was 195 cm at the distal end of Trentz ligament (30-240 cm).For 38 SBE procedures performed via anus,the mean procedure time was 75 minuets (30-120 minutes),and the mean insertion depth was 160 cm at the proximal end of ileocecal valve (50-200 cm ).The whole diagnostic yield of obscure gastrointestinal bleeding was 62.5％.ConclusionSBE is a safe and useful tool for the diagnosis of obscure gastrointestinal bleeding.

Objective To investigate the effect of glucose supplement on AMPK activation in myocardium of exercised rats by measuring the myocardial AMPK activation and glycogen content after acute exercise training.Methods Rats were subjected to an acute endurance exercise and glucose supplement in varying doses and time points before and after exercise.The dynamic changes of myocardial AMPK activities was measured with Western blotting, changes of myocardial glycogen content were measured with Anthrone method.Results AMPK activation in myocardium of exercised rat was increased significantly throughout the exercise, and remained at a higher level 1 hour after acute exercise.However the level of AMPK activity was not significantly increased in exercised rat with glucose supplement.Glycogen content was not significantly changed after exercise.Rats subjected to lower dose glucose supplement did not show significant changes in glycogen content neither.But glycogen content was significantly increased in rats at 24 hours after exercise, subjected to higher dose of glucose supplement.Conclusions 1) Acute exercise induces a significant increase in AMPK activation in myocardium of exercised rats.Glucose supplement significantly inhibites the activation of AMPK induced by acute exercise.(2) Higher dose glucose supplement significantly increases glycogen content in the rat myocardium 24 h after exercise.

Objective To evaluate the safely and efficacy of therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and its related procedures in patients older than 85 years.Methods Data of patients older than 85 who underwent ERCP between 2004 and 2009 (group A, n =52) were reviewed and compared with those of patients aging 70-84 years (group B, n = 329).Results The rate of patients with underlying disorders of other systems in group A was significantly greater than that of group B (100.0% vs.77.5% , P < 0.05) , as well as the rate of multiple procedures to achieve stone clearance (42.3% vs.28.8% , P <0.05).There were no significant differences between 2 groups regarding the rates of complication (7.7% vs.4.9% ) and post-procedure mortality (1.9% vs.0.6% ).Conclusion Therapeutic ERCP and related procedures are safe and effective in patients aging over 85, and advanced age should not be regarded as the contraindication of the procedure.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of pancreatic duct stent in preventing post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) of difficult bile duct cannulation.Methods A total of 120 patients who underwent difficult bile duct cannulation during routine ERCP were randomized to receive pancreatic duct stent placement (S group) or not (NS group),and the incidence of PEP,hyperamylasemia and scores of abdominal pain were analyzed.Results There were 15 cases of hyperamylasemia and 5 cases of PEP occurred in S group,but no severe PEP was observed.The score of abdominal pain was (3.82 ± 1.48) in S group.There were 18cases of hyperamylasemia and 14 cases of PEP occurred,including 2 severe PEP in NS group.The score of abdominal pain was (7.48 ± 1.93) in NS group.There was no significant difference in the incidence of hyperamylasemia between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The incidence of PEP,severe PEP and the scores of abdominal pain were lower in the S group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Placement of pancreatic duct stent can reduce the PEP rate of difficult bile duct cannulation and relieve the abdominal pain.

Objective To assess feasibility and advantages of the improved endoscopic resection of duodenal major papillary.Methods A total of 56 cases were collected in Drum Tower Hospital from October 2007 to December 2012, which were diagnosed as duodenal major papillary adenoma or carcinoma in situ, where tumor didn't extend to the biliary or pancreatic duct by the endoscopic ultrasonography, intraductal ultrasonography or histology of biopsy specimens.The diameters of these adenoma ranged from 0.3 cm to 5.0 cm.Twenty-four lesions were resected by routine endoscopic method and 32 lesions were removed by modified endoscopic method.All patients underwent ERCP and biliary and/or pancreatic stents were placed.Results En bloc resection rate was significantly higher in modified group(87.5％ ,28/32) than that in routine group (60.9％, 14/23, P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in complete resection rates (93.8％ ,30/32 VS 87.0％, 20/23;P ＞0.05), or in the amount and difficulty of pancreaticobiliary stenting(P ＞ 0.05)between modified group and routine group.Short-term complication occurrence in modified group was lower than that of the routine group(15.6％ ,5/32 VS 41.6％, 10/24, P ＜ 0.05), but long-term complication occurrence showed no significant difference.There was no significant difference in recurrence rate between two groups[7.1％ (2/28) VS 15.0％ (3/20) ,P ＞0.05].Conclusion Endoscopic resection of duodenal major papillary adenoma with a modified method shows more therapeutic effect.
