3.Retrospective analysis on neuroradiological features of central neurocytoma
Journal of Third Military Medical University 1984;0(01):-
Objective To evaluate the neuroradiological features of intraventricular central neurocytoma in ten patients.Methods Ten patients with central neurocytoma were imaged using contrast-enhanced and non-enhanced MRI scans,including 4 were also scanned with non-enhanced CT.The imaging data were studied with regard to location,size,margin,signal intensity,enhancement characteristics and presence of calcifications.Clinical data(i.e.presenting signs and symptoms,physical findings and medical history) were collected and histopathological and immunohistochemical studies were performed.Results There were 4 male,6 female in our group.All lesions were located in the lateral ventricles.Three tumors were confined to the left side,three to the right side and four involved both lateral ventricles.The growth of central neurocytoma was of close spatial relation to the septum pellucidum.In MRI,most of the cases showed a heterogeneous hypointensity on T1WI and hyperintensity on T2WI or FLAIR with a well-defined margin.The presence of cystic components,necroses and calcifications had been the cause of these internal heterogeneities.After intravenous administration of gadolinium(Gd-DTPA) all tumors showed a heterogeneous enhancement.CT provided additional information by distinguishing intratumoral calcifications in all four evaluated cases.Conclusion Central neurocytoma should be considered when young patients with lesions in the lateral ventricle,which contain calcifications and show some enhancement.This is especially applicable for tumors involving both lateral ventricles with symmetrical growth around the center of septum pellucidum or for unilateral ventricular tumors with a wide base attachment to the septum pellucidum.
4.The relationship between homocysteine and cerebral infaction in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Tianjin Medical Journal 2016;44(7):902-905
Objective To explore the correlation between serum homocysteine (Hcy) level and diabetes mellitus combined with cerebral infarction (DMCI) in patients. Methods A total of 144 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were selected and divided into two groups, patients without cerebral infaction (group A, n=64) and patients with cerebral infaction (group B, n=80). Thirty healthy people were used as control group (group C). The serum Hcy level was detected by enzymatic cycling assay in three groups. The serum levels of cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride cholesterol (TG) were detected by enzymatic determination. The serum levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were detected by homogeneous phase method. The serum level of creatinine (Cr) was detected by creatine oxidase method. The level of uric acid (UA) was detected by urinary enzyme peroxidase coupling method. Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) was detected by high performance liquid chromatography. The carotid artery intima media thickness (IMT) was examined by color Doppler ultrasound, and patients were divided into mild and no stenosis group, moderate stenosis group and severe stenosis group according to the
results. The levels of Hcy were compared between all groups. The correlation of Hcy level and other indicators was analyzed. Results The levels of Hcy and HbA1c were group C

6.Effect of ursodesoxycholic acid on JAK/STAT3/COX-2 signal pathway in human hepatocellular carcinoma cells
Cancer Research and Clinic 2013;25(8):552-554
Objective To investigate the effect of ursodesoxycholic acid (UDCA) on JAK/STAT3/ COX-2 signal pathway in human hepatocellular carcinoma cells and the underlying mechanism of its antitumor effect.Methods In order to obtain the optimal concentration and time of UDCA,MTT assay was used to detect anti-proliferative activities of UDCA on SMMC-7721 cells induced by IL-6 in vitro.Cells were divided into control group,IL-6 group,AG490 (JAK2 inhibitor) group and UDCA group.The protein expressions of STAT3,p-STAT3 and COX-2 were measured by Western blot.Results MTT assay showed UDCA had obvious anti-proliferative activities on SMMC-7721 cells.The optimized concentrations were 50,100,200 μg/ml,the optimized culture time was 48 h.Western blot results showed that the expression of p-STAT3 and COX-2 were remarkably increased in IL-6 group than that in control group.There was no difference of STAT3 expression between the two groups.Compared with IL-6 group,the protein level of COX-2 was decreased in AG490 and UDCA groups,so was the expression of p-STAT3.But there was no change on STAT3 expression in AG490 and UDCA groups.Conclusion UDCA may decrease the proliferation of SMMC-7721 cells via inhibiting phosphorylation of STAT3 and down-regulating COX-2 exprcssion.
7.Experimental Study of the Apoptosis Inducing Effect of Histamin-indomethacin on Lewis Lung Cancer in Mice
Journal of China Medical University 2010;(6):435-438
Objective To study the apoptosis-inducing effect of histamin-indomethacin(his-IN)on Lewis lung cancer cell in mice.Methods The suspension of tumor cells from Lewis lung cancer mice was inoculated into the left axilla of Kunming mice.When the tumor grew to 1 cm in diameter,the mice were divided into 5 groups and received corresponding treatment:3.0 mg/kg indomethacin(IN)group,3.5 mg/kg IN group,3.0 mg/kg his-IN group,3.5 mg/kg his-IN group,and saline control group.Ten days later,the therapeutic effects were evaluated by the tumor inhibitory rate,the apoptotic peak and rate of tumor cells were measured by flow-cytometry(FCM),and tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α)level was estimated by radio-immunity method.Results TNF-α level,the tumor inhibitory rate and the apoptosis rate of his-IN group and IN group were significantly higher than those of the control group,and those of 3.5 mg/kg his-IN group was the highest.In the groups of his-IN or IN treatment,an apoptotic peak was found before G0/G1 phase,and the peak in his-IN group appeared earlier than IN group.Conclusion IN and his-IN could resist the growth of the tumor and promote cell apoptosis of Lewis lung cancer in mice.
8.Discussion on Clinical Experiences of Professor Zhang Yonghong in the Treatment of Advanced Lung Cancer
World Science and Technology-Modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2013;(3):617-619
Professor Zhang Yonghong thinks that the deficiency of lung qi always exists in advanced lung cancer cases. Pathogen infection, phlegm and blood stasis are key factors to the occurrence and development of lung cancer. Clinical treatment in advanced lung cancer should emphasize on the benefiting of qi and supplementing the lung as well as reducing phlegm, removing blood stasis and disintoxication. Attention should be paid to both syndrome differentiation and disease differentiation with the combination of strengthening the body resistance and eliminating evil factors according to different stages of lung cancer.
