The trypsin inhibitor is a kind of substance that can inhibit trypsin activity.It shares extensive physiological roles.The trypsin inhibitor not only inhibits the activities of many enzymes,but also has significant anti-cancer effects by suppressing cell invasion and promoting cell apoptosis.Wnt signaling pathway involves in the regulation of cell growth,proliferation and apoptosis.It also plays an important role in tumor development.This review focuses on the impacts of trypsin inhibitors on Wnt signaling pathway and tumor cell apoptosis.

Objective To discuss the value of serum thymidine kinase 1 and DNA ploidy for the diagnosis of patients with acute myeloid lecukemia.Methods Determined TK1 and DI in 20 healthy people,6 patients with benign proliferate in hematological system and 66 patients with acute myeloid lecukemia by chemiluminescence detection technique and flow cytometry.Nonparametric comparisons among three group were done by rank sum test.ROC curve was used to determine the AUC and the diagnosis value serum thymidine kinase 1 and DNA.Results As showed by peripheral blood results,the TK1 (x2 =36.877,P＜0.001) and DI (x2=4.040,P＜0.05) had statistically difference among healthy people group,patients with benign proliferate in hematological system group and AML group.The normal control group compared with the AML group,TK1 (Z=-6.073,P＜0.001)and DI (Z=-2.012,P =0.044) had statistically difference;The normal control group compared with the benign proliferate patients,TK1 (Z=-1.234,P =0.169) and DI (Z=-1.084,P =0.278) had no statistically difference.The benign proliferate patients and that with AML patients,TK1 (Z=2.177,P=0.036) had statistically difference,but DI (Z=-1.801,P=0.061) had no statistically difference.The TK1 and DI area under the ROC curve were 0.950 (P＜0.001) and 0.638 (P=0.063),best cut-off were 1.73 pmol/L and 0.98,sensitivity were 0.95,0.78,and specifity were 0.88,0.39.Conclusion Serum TK1 and DI is a important diagnostic marker of early for AML patients,TK1 have a better diagnostic performance than DI significantly.

This paper develops a type of x-ray unit which can produce x-ray image suitable for medical diagnosis. The unit is composed of a CCD image sensor with high sensitivity and high resolution, a digital image acquisition board, and a suit of computer software. The software can be applied as the doctor's workstation with the functions of patient register, image process and image management. Some styles of digital radiography technology are introduced briefly, and the principle of the x-ray unit as well as its hardware and software designs are presented particularly.

AIM: To identify proteins involved in insulin stimulation and the molecular mechanism of proliferation and migration in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). METHODS: A series of methods, including 2-D electrophoresis, PDQuest software analysis of 2-DE gels, peptide mass fingerprinting based on matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) and SWISS-PROT database searching, were used to separate and identify the differentially expressed proteins. The difference of some proteins was proved by Western blotting. Proliferation and migration of VSMCs treated with insulin were also observed. RESULTS: DNA synthesis were increased in VSMCs. ~3H-thymidine incorporation in VSMCs from SHR (14.40?0.85) was higher than that in VSMCs from WKY (9.21?0.93, P

Objective:To analyze the lympho-vascular space invasion (LVSI) in different molecular subtypes of the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) molecular subtypes of endometrial cancer (EC) and to evaluate the prognostic value of LVSI in EC patients with different molecular subtypes.Methods:A total of 258 patients diagnosed EC undergoing surgery in Peking University People′s Hospital from January 2016 to June 2022 were analyzed retrospectively. Among 258 patients, 14 cases were classified as POLE-ultramutated subtype, 43 as high-microsatellite instability (MSI-H) subtype, 155 as copy-number low (CNL) subtype, and 46 as copy-number high (CNH) subtype. Fifty-four patients were positive for LVSI, while 203 tested negative.Results:(1) The incidence of LVSI was found to be highest in the CNH subtype (32.6%,15/46), followed by the MSI-H subtype (27.9%, 12/43), the CNL subtype (16.9%, 26/154), and the POLE-ultramutated subtype (1/14), with statistically significant differences ( χ2=7.79, P=0.044). (2) Staging and deep myometrial invasion were higher in the LVSI positive group than those in the LVSI negative group (all P<0.05), except for the POLE-ultramutated subtype. The grade, lymph node metastasis, and the expression of nuclear antigen associated with cell proliferation (Ki-67) were significantly higher in LVSI positive patients than those in LVSI negative EC patients with both MSI-H and CNL subtypes (all P<0.05). In CNL subtypes patients, LVSI was also associated with age, histology subtype,and progesterone receptor (PR; all P<0.05). (3) Of the 257 EC patients, 25 cases recurred during the follow-up period, with a recurrence rate of 9.7% (25/257); among them, the recurrence rate of LVSI positive patients was 22.2% (12/54), which was significantly higher than those with LVSI negative (6.4%, 13/203; χ2=12.15, P<0.001). During the follow-up period, none of the 14 patients with POLE-ultramutated had recurrence; among CNL patients, the recurrence rate was 19.2% (5/26) in LVSI positive patients, which was significantly higher than that in LVSI negative ones (5.5%, 7/128; χ2=3.94, P=0.047); where as no difference were found in both MSI-H [recurrence rates in LVSI positive and negative patients were 2/12 and 9.7% (3/31), respectively] and CNH subtype [recurrence rates between LVSI positive and negative patients were 5/15 and 9.7% (3/31), respectively] EC patients (both P>0.05). After log-rank test, the 3-year recurrence free survival (RFS) rate were significantly lower in LVSI positive patients from CNL subtype and CNH subtype than those in LVSI negative patients (CNL: 80.8% vs 94.5%; CNH: 66.7% vs 90.3%; both P<0.05). (4) Lymph node metastasis ( HR=6.93, 95% CI: 1.15-41.65; P=0.034) had a significant effect on the 3-year RFS rate of EC patients with MSI-H subtype. Multivariate analysis revealed that PR expression ( HR=0.04, 95% CI: 0.01-0.14; P<0.001) was significantly associated with the 3-year RFS rate of CNL subtype patients. Conclusions:LVSI has the highest positivity rate in CNH subtype, followed by MSI-H subtype, CNL subtype, and the lowest positivity rate in POLE-ultramutated subtype. LVSI is significantly associated with poor prognosis in CNL subtype patients and may affect the prognosis of CNH subtype patients. However, LVSI is not an independent risk factor for recurrence across all four TCGA molecular subtypes.

Objective To explore the characteristics of trunk muscle activity in persons with Parkinson's disease (PD) in search of better treatments for abnormal posture.Methods Ninety persons with PD of different severity and 8 normal controls were studied using surface electromyography (sEMG).A sixteen-lead sEMG instrument was used to collect sEMG amplitudes from the bilateral thoracic erector spinae,lumbar erector spinae,external oblique and rectus abdominis muscles when the subjects were lying,standing and walking.Results Compared with the control group,a significant increase was observed in the sEMG amplitude of the lumbar erector spinal muscle [(18.56±14.57) μV] and rectus abdominis muscles [(24.00±18.80)μV] of the PD group when lying.Significant relative increases in (P＜0.05),of the external oblique muscles were observed [(27.87± 11.49)μV] when standing (P＜0.05),and in the thoracic erector spinae muscle [(58.74±29.69)μV] and external oblique muscles [(59.01± 25.20) μV] increased when walking (P＜0.05).Compared with the control group,the sEMG activity of the external oblique muscles was significantly elevated in PD patients at Hoehn and Yahr stage 1 to 1.5 when walking.One or more of the trunk muscle groups showed significantly greater activity in the PD patients in Hoehn and Yahr stage 2 or 3 in all three positions.Conclusions The sEMG activities of the extensor and flexor muscles increase simultaneously in PD patients.More trunk muscles are involved in PD patients with higher H-Y grades.These findings provide a neurophysiological basis for the customizaton of rehabilitation therapy for patients with Parkinson's disease and for the precise selection of muscles for botulinum toxin injection.
