Objective To analyse clinical characteristics and preventive methods of pregnancy-induced hypertensive severe pre-eclampsia with ascites.Methods 184 cases of patients with severe pre-eclampsia complicated with ascite were divided into two groups and the clinical characteristics were compared(severe pre-eclampsia complicated with ascite group,n=36;Severe pre-eclampsia group,n=148 cases).Results The average time of the termination of pregnancy was (34±4) weeks in severe pre-eclampsia complicated with ascites group,and (36±3) weeks in severe pre-eclampsia group (t=2.71,P＜0.01).There were 6 cases of intrauterine stillborn (16.67%),14 cases of neonatal mortality (38.89%);22 cases of premature labor (61.11%) in severe pre-eclampsia complicated with aacites group;There were 4 cases of intrauterine stillborn (2.7%);16 cases of neonatal mortality (10.81%);and 35 cases of premature labor (23.65%) in severe pre-eclampsia group (X~2=10.99,16.73,19.01,P＜0.001).There were differences in the total protein,albumin,white/ball ratio,lactic acid dehydregenase,serum creatinine,24-hour urinary protein between the two groups [total protein:(51.68±6.08) g/L vs (59.34±8.28)g/L,albumin:(24.32±4.06) g/L vs (32.16±5.63) g/L,white/ball ratio:(0.92±0.26) vs (1.16±0.26),lactic acid dehydrogenase:(495.87±312.56) U/L vs (323.81±185.00) U /L,serum creatinine:(131.62±95.34) μmol/L vs (91.52±86.83) μmol/L,24 h urinary protein(4.21±3.51)g/24 h vs (2.38±2.57)g/24h,t=6.17,8.77,5.50,4.79,2.72,3.98,P＜0.05 or ＜0.01].Conclusion Tbe condition of severe pre-eclampsia with ascites is extremely serious,so pregnancy should be timely terminated.The aacites can be dissipated after delivery.Early,systematic and regular prenatal care can prevent severe pre-eclampsia and complications in time.

Objective To study the effects of flavone compound α-NF on CYP1B1 gene in transplanted nude mice tumor with human paclitaxel resistance ovarian cancer cell. Methods Using 24 nude models of orthotopic transplantation of human ovarian cancer, they were divided randomly into four groups: control group, α-NF group, paclitaxel group and combined group. RT-PCR and Western blotting method were used to detect CYP1B1 mRNA and protein expression. Results There was no significant difference in CYP1B1 mRNA expression between α-NF group, combined group and control group(P >0.05). Compared with control group, CYP1B1 protein expression was distinctly lower in α-NF and combined group (P<0.01). Conclusion α-NF has no effect on CYPIB1 gene in mRNA level, whereas α-NF down-regnlate, CYP1B1 expression of transplanted A2780TS nude mice tumor in protein level, thus α-NF has the effect on reversing paclitaxel resistance of A2780TS cell.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the polymorphism of cytochrome P450 19 (CYP19) gene rs10046 and the risk of colon and rectal cancer.Methods Using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) to analyze gene polymorphism in CYP 19 gene rs10046 in 198 cases of colon and rectal cancer patients (case group) and 309 cases of healthy controls (control group).The genotype frequency and relative risk of CYP19 gene rs10046 between the two groups were compared and the relationship with the clinicopathological features of colorectal cancer was analyzed.Results In case group,the prevalence rates of CYP19 rs10046 genotypes C/C,C/T and T/T were 28.3％,44.4％ and 27.3％,respectively,and 17.2％,51.8％ and 31.1％ in the control group,respectively,with statistical significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with wild-type C/C,the susceptibility of colorectal cancer with the genotypes of C/T and T/T was decreased by 0.521 (95％ CI:0.330-0.822)and 0.532 (95 ％ CI:0.322-0.880) respectively.Moveover,in the non-smoking group,the risk of colorectal cancer with genotype T/T or C/T was decreased by 0.409 (95％ CI:0.210-0.798) compared with genotype C/C.The interaction was not exist in smoking group.Conclusions The polymorphism of CYP19 gene rs10046 is related to the susceptibility of colon and rectal cancer.The T/T,C/T genotype of CYP19 rs10046 decrease the risk of colon and rectal cancer,and which might be the protective factor of colon and rectal cancer.

Objective To analyze the relationships of high mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) with regulatory T cells (Treg), T helper 17 cells (Th17) and cytokine secrtion in peripheral blood of gravidas with preeclampsia(PE),and to investigate the mechanism of HMGB1 in regulating Th17/Treg ratio via receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE)-IL-6 pathway. Methods Forty gravi-das with mild(20 cases) and severe(20 cases) PE were recruited as experimental groups,20 heathy gravi-das in the third trimester of pregnancy were enrolled as control group. Concentrations of HMGB1,IL-6,IL-17 and TGF-β in peripheral blood of all subjects were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Real-time quantitative PCR(RT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of RAGE at mRNA lev-el in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs). The percentages of Treg and Th17 cells were determined by flow cytometry. RT-PCR was performed to analyze changes in the expression of RAGE,IL-6,Foxp3 and RORγt at mRNA level after the PBMCs isolated from 20 garvidas with PE were cultured in vitro and stimula-ted with recombinant human HMGB1 (rhHMGB1). Results The levels of HMGB1,IL-6,Th17 and IL-17 in peripheral blood of gravidas with PE were significantly higher than those in the normal pregnancy group. Moreover,HMGB1 level was positively correlated with IL-6 level and ratios of Th17/Treg and IL-17/TGF-β in preeclamptic pregancies. In vitro stimulation of PBMCs with rhHMGB1 significantly enhanced the expres-sion of RAGE,IL-6 and RORγt at mRNA level, but suppressed the expression of Foxp3 at mRNA level. Conclusion Enriched HMGB1 in plasma shifts the Th17/Treg balance towards Th17 dominance via the RAGE-IL-6 pathway, which exacerbates inflammation and participates in the onset of preeclampsia during pregnancy.
