AIM To investigate that Danhong Injection may decrease inflammation and oxidative stress response in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells (RPMCs) cultured with high glucose.METHODS The third passage of RPMCs were used for the experiment.After being incubated with DMEM for 24 hours,RPMCs were divided into normal control group,high glucose group (RPMCs were incubate with 100 mmol/L glucose for 12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h),Danhong Injection group (complete medium with 80 mL/L Danhong Injection for 48 h) and high glucose + Danhong Injection group (100 mmol/L high glucose with 40 mL/L,80 mL/L,160 mL/L Danhong Injection for 48 h respectively).The cell proliferation was detected by MTT method.The levels of interleukin-18 (IL-18),interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in culture fluid were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.The contents of malondialdehyde (MDA),superoxide dismutase (SOD),glutathione (GSH),in the culture fluid and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) were measured by kits.The expressions of Bcl-2,Bax,fibronectin (FN),endothelin-1 (EDN1) and haem oxygenase-1 (HMOX1) mRNA were detected by quantitative real-time PCR.The protein expressions of EDN1 and HMOX1 were measured by Western blot.RESULTS High glucose can significantly inhibit RPMCs' viability.High glucose can also up-regulate the expressions of IL-18,IL-6,TNF-α,ROS,MDA,Bax mRNA,FN mRNA,EDN1 mRNA and down-regulate the levels of SOD,GSH,Bcl-2 mRNA,HMOX1 mRNA in RPMCs.Treatment with Danhong Injection can effectively reverse aforementioned effect induced by high glucose.CONCLUSION Danhong Injection can reverse the inhibition of cell viability,the inflammation and oxidative stress response induced by high glucose in RPMCs,thus protect peritoneal membrane.

Objective To investigate the expression of CD44V6 in thyroid neoplasms and its significance. Methods The expression of CD44V6 in paraffin-embeded thyoid carcinoma tissue from 100 patients (50 with lymph node metastasis,50 without) and 20 patients with thyroid adenoma was measured by immunohistochemistry staining. Results Positive expression of CD44V6 in the group of thyoid carcinoma was 72%, significantly higher than the group of thyroid adenoma.Positive expression of CD44V6 in the group of thyoid carcinoma with lymph node involvement was 90%,significantly higher than the group of thyoid carcinoma without lymph node involvement.In patients with different pathological grade,different clinical stage and different survival time, the positive expression of CD44V6 was significantly different. Conclusions The results suggest that CD44V6 can be regarded as an valuable molecular markers to distinguish benign thyroid tumor from malignant tumor, to predict lymph node metastasis and prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effect of Dickkopf-1 (Dkk1) on vasculogenic mimicry (VM) formation and the relevant mechanism. Methods:CD34-PAS dual staining and immunohistochemical staining were used to detect and analyze the re-lationship between VM existence and Dkk1 expression in 217 human colon cancer tissue samples;three dimensional (3D) culture was used to detect the influence of Dkk1 on tube structure formation and on VE-cadherin expression;a subcutaneous mouse xenograft mod-el was made to further validate the inhibitory role of Dkk1 on VM formation in vivo. Results:VM-positive samples indicated a lower expression of Dkk1(P<0.05);colon cancer cells with Dkk1 overexpression exhibited a decreased ability to form tube-like structure and a decreased expression of VE-cadherin;Dkk1 inhibited the VM-formation abilities of human colorectal carcinoma cell line xenograft tu-mor tissue. Conclusion:Dkk1 inhibits the VM formation of colon cancer.

Objective To investigate the movement and its influencing factors of the space-occup ying pancreatic lesions and provide a reference for the safe margin between CTV and PTV in accurate radio therapy.Methods Gold fiducials were implanted into the lesions of 16 pancreatic carcinoma patients by percutaneous punctures under B-uhrasonographic guidance.The movements of these markers were measured under the X-ray simulator system in the x,y and z axial directions,respectively.The relevant influencing fac tors were analyzed.Results The motion amplitudes of pancreatic lesions were 0.1-0.3 (mean 0.16 ± 0.06) cm,0.1-0.4 (mean 0.25 ±0.12) em and 0.5-1.6 (mean 0.88±0.24) cm in the x,y and z axi al directions,respectively.The movements were not associated with the height,weight,age,tumor location or tumor size.Conclusions The motion of the space-occupying pancreatic lesions is mainly influenced by the respiration,especially with the maximal amplitude in the z axial direction.Therefore,the motion in the z axial direction should be given more consideration when determining the PTV margin.

Objective To investigate the change of quality of life and urodynamics after the enterocystoplasty combined with clean intermittent self-catheterisation (CISC) in nonparalytic spinal cord dysfunction (NSCD) patients with neurogenic underactive bladder by the Medical Outcomes study 36-item short-form general health survey (SF-36). Methods The quality of life of 72 NSCD patients with NUB were measured by SF-36 questionnaire, who had been taken enterocystoplasty combined with CISC or only CISC according to urodynamic results. In total, 58(81% ) patients were successfully followed for one year by SF-36 questionnaire and urodynamic examination, including 30 men (mean age 27±5 year) and 28 women (mean age 26±4 year). The normal volunteers without lower urinary tract symptom were set as control group, including 20 men (mean age 28 ± 4 year) and 20 women (mean age 29±4 year). Results At the follow-up, physical role, vitality and social function of men and women were 55±14 and 45±15, 76±19 and 74±15, 52±19 and 59±13 respectively, significantly higher than those before the treatment (35 ± 10 and 32 ±11, 27 ± 18 and 33 ± 17, 40 ±12 and 34 ±15). The bladder compliance and maximum cystometric capacity were (320 ± 44 ) ml and ( 338 ±50)ml,(55±15)cm H2O and (60±17)cm H2O respectively, also significantly higher than those before the treatment (131±30ml and 140±35ml,5±3 cm H2O and 6±4 cm H2O). However, detrusor leakage point pressures were (6±2)cm H2O and (6±3)cm H2O respectively, significantly lower than those before the treatment (28 ±9 cm H2 O and 25 ± 6 cm H2O). Except for physical function and bodily pain, the all domains of quality of life in both men and women patients were significantly lower than those in control group. Only 17 % of men and 7 % of women believed "their health is better than that one year ago". There was no significant difference in the remission rate between men and women (89% vs 76%) in the patients with RUUTD before treatment. Conclusions It is suggested that urodynamic parameters are significantly improved. Many domains of quality of life were not improved and the reduced quality of life still occurred in NSCD patients with NUB using enterocystoplasty and CISC.

BACKGROUND: Iliac bones are common habitant parts in metastatic tumor of bone, and the affiliate cortex is easy to be penetrated into soft tissue blots. The irregular iliac shape and its complex surrounding tissues create the difficulties in puncture operations and cement perfusion.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical outcomes of CT-guided versus DSA-guided puncture combined with bone cement perfusion for metastatic tumor to the ilium.METHODS: Sixty-four patients with metastatic tumor to the ilium udergoing bone cement perfusion were enrolled, and then divided into control and experimental groups (n=32 per group), followed by treated with DSA-guided percutaneous injection of bone cement, and CT-guided puncture, respectively. Subsequently, the diffuse distribution of bone cement was observed using CT. The success rate, leakage rate, Visual Analogue Scale scores and Oswestry Disability Index were compared between two groups.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) All patients received the surgery successfully, and bone cement leakage happened in two cases of control group and one case of experimental group. (1) The Visual Analog Scale and Oswestry Disability Index scores in the two groups were significantly better than those before treatment (P < 0.05), and the scores showed no significant differences between two groups (P > 0.05). (3) No difference was found in the pain relief and functional recovery between two groups. (4) To conclude, CT-guided treatment can achieve satisfactory outcomes for metastatic tumor to the ilium by bone cement infusion in appropriate time.
