The vertebral artery dissection may be associated with the structural abnormalities of vascular wall or enviromental factors.The symptoms are usually caused by the luminal stenosis or the formation of blood clot,including the pain in posterior neck or mastoid region with local neurological deficits.The diagnostic methods for vertebral artery dissection include digital subtraction angiogaphy,magnetic resonance imaging,CT angiograpby and color Doppler ultrasonography.Anticoagulation is the main treatment option for most patients with vertebral artery dissection.

Ring finger protein 43 (RNF43) is a ring-type E3 ubiquitin ligase.As a negative regulater of Wnt signaling pathway, RNF43 has an important anti-tumor effect.The mutation of RNF43 may cause abnormal activation of Wnt signaling pathway, and then promote invasion, metastasis and proliferation of tumor cell.In addition, the act of RNF43 protein in the Wnt signal pathway is expected to be a molecular target in the therapy of cancer.In recent years, with the gradual deepening of related research, the molecular structure of RNF43 protein and its mechanism of action with the Wnt pathway-related proteins have been gradually clear.In clinical, RNF43 protein analogs and related vaccine also show the important position in the therapy of cancer.

Objective To address the expression correlation of ribosome-related genes in rat regeneration liver(RL) and those in liver tumor at transcriptional level.Methods Genes involved in ribosome biogenesis,assembly and function,as well as their expression changes in liver tumor,were obtained by online data collection and literature review,and their expression profiles in rat regenerating liver were detected by Rat Genome 230 2.0 array.Expression similarities and differences of the above genes were analyzed using statistical methods. Results A total of 75 genes were found to be RL-related.In regenerated liver and liver tumor,the expressions of 18 genes increased and 6 genes decreased,and no significant expression changes were found in 51 genes in liver tumor.Conclusion The expression profiles of the ribosome-related genes in regenerated liver cells and liver tumor cells have both similarities and differences,and the former exhibit properties of more gradualness and complexity.

In addition, the mutation of RhoC gene was examined by polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformational polymorphism(PCR-SSCP)ResultsThe mRNA expression of RhoC in tumor tissue were higher than that in adjacent liver tissue,1.8?1.1 vs. 1.0?0.7( P

Objective To investigate the protective role of Ulinastatin UTI on gut barrier of septic rats. Methods Twenty-two SD rats were divided into three groups: sham laparatomy(S), cecal ligation and punture(CLP), and CLP plus UTI. Septic rat model was estabilished through CLP method. Fluorescence spectrometry was used to measure FITC-dextran concentration from bowel lumen to portal vein. Ultrastructure of intestinal mucosa was observed under transmission eletron microscope (TEM). Results Twenty-one hrs after CLP septic symptoms in CLP plus UTI group were milder than those in CLP group. Portal concentration of FITC-dextran in CLP group was higher than that of S group[S (1.22?0.21) ?g/ml vs. CLP (2.51?0.56) ?g/ml, P

Objective:To investigate the relationship of CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms and clopidogrel resistance in the patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease ( CAHD) accepted percutaneous coronary intervention ( PCI) in Chinese Han population from north Sichuan. Methods:The patients with CAHD undergoing PCI were recruited. The fluorescence in situ hybridization ( FISH) technology was used to detect the CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms in all the patients. According to the different genotypes, the patients were divided into different groups. The platelet maximum aggregation rate ( MAP) induced by ADP was detected before and after the administration of clopidogrel. Results:The 110 patients were divided into three groups:52(47. 3%) patients were divided into the fast metabolism group, 42(38. 1%) patients were in the moderate metabolism group and 16(14. 6%) patients were in the slow metab-olism group. Before the administration, there was no significant difference in the basic values of the platelet aggregation rate among the groups with various metabolism type (P=0. 873). In 24 hours after the administration of 300mg clopidogrel, there was notable differ-ence in the platelet aggregation rate (17. 74% ± 5. 87% vs 21. 44% ± 8. 71% vs 27. 05% ± 8. 83%, P=0. 044) and the decrease de-gree (20. 08% ± 5. 94% vs 18. 87% ± 4. 72% vs 11. 54% ± 2. 94%, P=0. 01) among the three groups. The moderate metabolism group and slow metabolism group had higher MAP with lower decrease degree than the fast metabolism group. Totally 21 patients (19. 1%)were with CR, and among them, 2 patients (3. 8%) were in the fast metabolism group,12 patients (28. 6%) in the moder-ate metabolism group and 7 ones (43. 8%) in the slow metabolism group, and the difference of CR distribution among the three groups was significant (P<0. 001). The moderate metabolism group and slow metabolism group were more likely to have clopidogrel resist-ance, especially the slow metabolism group. Conclusion: There is a certain relationship of CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms and clopi-dogrel resistance in the patients with CAHD accepted PCI in Chinese Han population from north Sichuan, and those with slow metabo-lism genotype are more likely to have clopidogrel resistance with reduced efficacy.

Objective To detect the expression and function of ZNRF3 in different kinds of thyroid cancer tissues and cells.Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of ZNRF3 protein in 35 cases of papillary thyroid carcinoma and 10 cases of poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma.The expressions of ZNRF3 gene in TPC-1 and 8505C were detected by RT-PCR,and the cell lines were derived from papillary thyroid carcinoma and poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma respectively.After silenced ZNRF3 gene expression with lentivirus,the proliferation ability of TPC-1 cells were detected with CCK-8,the invasion and metastasis ability of TPC-1 cells were detected with Transwell.Results According to results of immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR,the expressions of ZNRF3 in papillary thyroid carcinoma cells and tissues were higher than those in poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma cells and tissues,the differences were statistically significant (4.83±0.44 vs.3.13 ±0.59,t =2.20,P ＜0.05;1.01±0.06 vs.0.21±0.04,t =11.80,P＜0.01).After ZNRF3 geng silencing,according to the results of CCK8,the proliferation ability of TPC-1 cells was significantly enhanced in 72 h,the difference was statistically significant (0.96 ± 0.10 vs.0.64 ± 0.05,t =3.19,P ＜ 0.05);and according to the results of Transwell,the TPC-1 cell's invasion (0.12 ± 0.01 vs.0.09 ±0.00,t =5.48,P＜0.01) and migration (0.22 ±-0.01 vs.0.17 ±0.01,t =4.58,P ＜0.05) also increased,the differences were statistically significant.Conclusion The expression of ZNRF3 in papillary thyroid carcinoma is higher than that in poorly differentiated thyroid cancer.ZNRF3 is tumor suppressor gene in the thyroid tumors.

Objective To determine the association between weight gain induced by atypical antipsychotic and the polymorphisms of MC4R gene rs12970134.Methods 62 patients who had weight gain more than 7% of their pre -drug body weight were selected as study group,and 62 patients who had weight gain less than 7% of their pre -drug body weight were selected as control group.The polymorphism of MC4R gene rs12970134 was analyzed by using polymerase chain reaction and directly sequencing technology.Results There were no significant differences in the frequency of MC4R gene rs12970134 genotypes and alleles between the two groups(χ2 =0.648,P =0.723;χ2 =0.679,P =0.410).While after the treatment with atypical antipsychotic,the weight gain degree in patients with GG genotypes was less than patients with GA /AA genotypes[(22.18 ±0.33)kg/m2 vs.(23.53 ±0.58)kg/m2 ](t =-2.167,P =0.032).Conclusion The polymorphisms of MC4R gene rs12970134 maybe affect the weight gain degree in patients after treatment with antipsychotic.
