Objective To study clinical effects of lavage treatment for inflammatory breast diseases guided by color Doppler sonography.Methods The lesions of 63 patients with inflammatory breast diseases (30 of breast abscess,20 of plasma cell mastitis,13 of breast chronic sinus)were positioned by color Doppler sonography.Surgical debridement and lavage catheter treatment were performed under general anesthesia.Results 54 patients were healed by first intention,and they were satisfied with their breast shapes.4cases of mammary abscess,3cases of plasma cell mastitis and 2 cases of breast chronic sinus had relapse within half a month.Conclusions Color Doppler sonography guided lavage treatment of inflammatory breast diseases is simple with significant healing effect,fast recovery speed,less recurrence and high cure rate.The operation had little pain to patients and small hidden postoperative scar.The breast shapes are nice-looking.

Objective To investigate the effects of Leptin on the base of anthropometry,densitometry,and biochemistry and reveal the role of Leptin in bone metabolism in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis (OP).Methods From January 2008 to January 2014,data of 82 postmenopausal females with or without OP were analyzed.They were randomized into two groups:OP (n=40) and conditional control group (CON) (n=42).The expression of Leptin receptors in osteoblasts was observed by immunohistochemistry.1 × 10 ng/ml,1 × 102 ng/ml,1 × 103 ng/ml,1× 104 ng/ml of Leptin were added respectively.Then the proliferation,differentiation and mineralization of osteoblasts were measure at 24 h,48 h and 96 h.The gene expressions of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) derived osteoblasts and adipocytes treated with Leptin were examined by quantitative analysis of Real time-PCR.Results The expression of Leptin receptors in osteoblasts was observed on plasma membranes and cytoplasm in the normal group and osteoporosis group.In osteoporosis group,different concentrations of Leptin enhanced cell proliferation,cell differentiation and cell mineralization.The growth rate of MTT and the concentration of ALP in the serum of were significantly increased with the effects of 1×10 ng/ml,1×102 ng/ml and 1×103 ng/ml of Leptin,and the action of 1×102 ng/ml Leptin was the most powerful with time dependence.Within 96 hours,the growth rate of osteoblasts increased gradually,and the concentration of ALP increased gradually in 3 weeks.The expression of RANKL/OPG in bone marrow BMSCs derived osteoblasts treated with Leptin were significantly increased.Conclusion Leptin receptor is present in osteoblasts,and Leptin affects biological behaviors of osteoblasts through receptors.The direct effect of Leptin may relate the expression of RANKL/OPG.Then,the balance between bone resorption and bone formation was broken and finally osteoporosis occurred.Lepin may promote osteogenesis and inhibit bone resorption in the differentiation of BMSCs.

Objective To understand the epidemiologic feature of human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV-3) in Shanghai,and to provide scientific evidence for formulating prevention and control measures in the future.Methods A total of 164 nasopharyngeal aspirates samples taken from children with acute respiratory infection (ARI) were collected from Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University and sent to Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center from June 2009 to June 2010.Samples were detected for HPIV-3 by reversed transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Full-length hemagglutininneuraminidase (HN) gene (1 719 bp) of five positive samples were sequenced for phylogenetic analysis.Comparison between two groups was evaluated by the precise chi-square test (two sided).Results Of 164 samples,70 samples were infected with parainfluenza virus,and HPIV-3 was detected positive in 23 samples with the positive rate of 32.86％.HPIV-3 infections were most common in spring and summer,and most of infections were mainly found in 13-36 month-old infants.Five Shanghai isolates and 36 reference sequences from different countries and areas were divided by HN gene-based phylogenetic tree into three clusters (A,B and C).Five Shanghai isolates and five Beijing isolates belonged to C3a group.The homologies of nucleotide and amino acid sequences between five Shanghai isolates and five Beijing isolates were 99.0％-99.5％ and 99.7％-100.0％,respectively.Conclusions HPIV-3 accounts for a high proportion in children with ARI in Shanghai.C3a group may be the main lineage of HPIV-3,which suggests that HPIV-3 may be of regionally correlation.

Objective To explore the feasibility of immediate breast reconstruction with subpectoral implantation of silicon gel prosthesis after nipple-areola complex (NAC) sparing modified radical mastectomy. Methods A total of 28 patients of 0,I,II stage breast cancer were implanted with silicon gel prosthesis immediately after they underwent skin-sparing modified radical mastectomy. NAC conservation depended on frozen section result. Results NAC of all the 28 patients were conserved. During 2-18 months (median15 months) follow-up, bilateral breasts were symmetrical and in good appearance with a 96.5% excellent rate. No local recurrence, distant metastasis or obvious complications occurred. Conclusions Immediate breast reconstruction with subpectoral implantation of silicon gel prosthesis after NAC sparing modified radical mastectomy is proven to be an effective and safe method with the advantage of good appearance and shorter recovery time in early-stage breast cancer.

Objective To detect the expression of Cytokeratin 19 (CK19) and human mammaglobin (hMAM) mRNA in the peripheral blood of breast cancer patients dynamically and to evaluate its clinical significance.Methods The expression of CK19 and hMAM mRNA was evaluated by real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcriptase pelymerase chain reaction in the peripheral blood of 40 breast cancer patients and 10 healthy volunteers.Results The expression of CK19 and hMAM in the peripheral blood of 40 breast cancer patients were higher than healthy donors.The positive expression rate of CK19 and hMAM was descending tendency during treatment.The different staging expression rate had no differences between before treatment and during treatment,but after treatment the expression rate had remarkably differences (CK19:P=0.044;hMAM:P=0.005).If the expression of CK19 and hMAM was continual positive,the rate of recurrence and metastasis would be higher (P＜0.001).Coneluslons Real-time fluorescent quantitative RT-PCR may detect the expression of CK19 and hMAM in the peripheral blood of breast cancer patients,and it is a sensitive and specific technique.The resuits suggest a possible use of this approach for evaluating prognosis,monitoring recurrence.

The ORF sequence of glycosyltransferase gene BcUGT1 cloned from Bupleurum chinense DC. was analyzed and its three dimentional structure was predicted. Using qRT-PCR method, the expression characteristics of BcUGT1 after methyl jasmonate (MeJA) induction and in different plant tissues were investigated. The results showed that BcUGT1 may be involved in saikosaponin biosynthesis in B. chinense. Thereafter, the recombinant vectors of BcUGT1 were constructed for its expression in E. coli. The target protein was successfully expressed and purified. In the present study, three vectors, pRSET-A, pET-28a (+) and pET-30a (+), and three isolates of E. coli, BL21 (DE3) plysS, BL21A1 and BL21-CodonPlus (DE3)-RIPL were used under different induction conditions, such as different concentrations and during times of inducers (L-arabinose and IPTG) and different inducing temperatures. The results showed that in the condition of 0.5 or 1 mmol x L(-1) IPTG, 16 degrees C, 20 h, target protein expressed in BL21-CodonPlus (DE3)-RIPL with pET-28a (+) or pET-30a (+) as vector. Using PrepEase His-tagged protein purification kit, the target protein was purified. The present work will be helpful for follow-up bio-function analysis of BcUGT1.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of exogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) on β-site APP cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE-1) and β-amyloid peptide (Aβ) metabolism in primary culture of neurons under high-glucose condition.

METHODSThe cortical neurons in primary culture under normal and high glucose (60 mmol/L) conditions for 24 h were exposed to 25, 50 and 100 µmol/L NaHS. Aβ1-42 concentration in the cell culture was measured by ELISA, and BACE-1 mRNA and protein levels were detected by fluorescent quantitative real-time PCR and Western blotting, respectively.

RESULTSCompared with the neurons cultured in normal glucose, the neurons exposed to high glucose showed significantly increased Aβ1-42 concentration and BACE-1 mRNA and protein expressions (P<0.05). Exposure to 25, 50 and 100 µmol/L NaHS significantly decreased Aβ1-42 concentration and BACE-1 mRNA and protein expressions in the high-glucose cell culture (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONNeurons exposed to high glucose exhibit increased Aβ1-42 levels and BACE-1 mRNA and protein expressions, which can be concentration-dependently decreased by NaHS.
