Objective To study the possible molecular mechanism of the damage of HepG2 cell line induced by low concentration of ethanol and ultraviolet irradiation. Methods Hepatoma cell line (HepG2) was exposed to low concentration of ethanol and ultraviolet irradiation, then the changes in cell cycle, the expression of p53 and p21, the correlation between expression of p53 and p21 and cell cycle were analyzed. Results The expression of p53 and p21 was greatly increased, and the cell cycle was found to be blocked at G_0-G_1/G_2-M after ultraviolet irradiation. The cell cycle block of G_2-M and the increased expression of p21 were observed when exposed to low concentration of ethanol, while the expression of p53 showed no significant changes. Cell apoptosis was increased when the cells were exposed to the both injury factors. Conclusion Low concentration of ethanol and ultraviolet irradiation can affect cell cycle and the process of cell apoptosis through activation of different molecular mechanism.

Objective To investigate the expression of ERBB3 protein,which encoded by ERBB3 gene,in gastric cancer(intestinal type and diffuse type)as well as the normal tissue,and to elucidate the possible role of ERBB3 gene in the progress of gastric cancer.Methods 65 samples of gastric cancer tissue(of which 43 samples were intestinal type and 22 were diffuse type,classified according to the Lauren patho-classification)and 65 samples of normal tissue(control group)were investigated immunohistochemically.The expression of ERBB3 in both control group and gastric cancer group was determined.Comparisons were made according to different pathological types and TNM clinical stages within and between groups.Results 7 of 65 samples(10.8%)in gastric cancer group were found to over-express the ERBB3 protein,while only 1 of 65 samples(1.6%)in control group was found to over-express the ERBB3 protein.Statistical differences(P

From 1993 to 1995,117 patients with breast masses were admitted to Ji Shun Tan Hospital. Among these patients,there were 69 cases of cancer and 48 benign lesions. Both were verified by operation and pathology. All of these cases were examined by infrared light scanning(ILS) and color doppler flow image(CDFI) before operation. The diagnostic accuracy rate increased from 62.4% to 86.3% by ILS with CDFI comparing with clinical palpation. The misdiagnostic rates of ILS with CDFI were of 4.3% on cancer and 6.3% on benign lesion. The reasons of misdiagnoses were analyzed in the paper.

Objective To investigate the different clinical behavior and the diagnosis and trearment of primary hyperparathyroidism(PHPT). Methods Clinical data of 53 patients with PHPT treated in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from May 1977 to April 2004 were collected and analyzed. Results 53 patients with PHPT were confirmed by operation and pathology. The majority of the patients were aged 20~50 years. There were more female than male patients. There were various clinical manifestations, and the duration of illness was (protracted). Many cases were misdiagnosed. There were bone pathologic changes of varying extent in all (patients), stones in urinary system plus bone pathology in 11 cases, serum level of calcium was raised in 51 patients(96.2%) and (parathyroid) hormone (PTH) was elevated in all examined 48 cases. Ultrasound, MIBI and CT were done before operation after 1991, and accurate preoperative localization diagnosis was (obtained). Minimally invasive (parathyroidectomy) (MIP) was successfully completed in 39 of 45 cases, and the primary operation cure rate was 97.4%. At postoperative follow-up of 10 months to 10 years, with the (exception) of 15 cases of severe bone deformity that had no obvious improvement, the other symptoms and signs were all relieved to varying (extents), the laboratory markers returned to normal, and there was no permanent hypoparathyroidism or (recurrent) nerve injury or other complications.Conclusions Early diagnosis of PHPT and effective early (treatment) by surgical removal of the pathologic lesion can alleviate the occurrence of severe bone changes and deformity. The preoperative combined use of imaging localization technique and overall assessment can improve the accuracy of diagnostic localization of the lesion.

Objective To summarize the experience on diagnosis and treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism(PHPT).Methods Clinical data of 91 PHPT patients treated in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from November 1992 to December 2008 were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among 91 PHPT cases,88 were diagnosed as parathyroid adenoma(96.7%),3 were diagnosed as parathyroid carcinoma (3.3%).Serum calcium and PTH levels increased in all cases.Main clinical manifestations were osteodynia and kidney stones.The accuracy rate of preoperative B-ultrasound.CT and ECT~(99m)Tc-MIBI on location was 83.5%(76/91),60.9%(14/23)and 98.6%(69/70)respectively.Parathyroidectomy was performed in all but one cases,in which parathyroid carcinoma was managed by ipsilateral hemithyroidectomy and modified neck dissection.The cure rate of primary operation was 97.8%(89/91).Ninety cases were followed-up from 8 months to 14 years postoperatively,87 cases with parathyroid adenoma achieved complete remission,2 with parathyroid carcinoma suffered from tumor recurrence and 1 died.Conclusion Patients with chronic bone diseases,repeatedly recurrent nephrolithiasis,peptic ulcer disease should be a suspect of PHPT.The routine examinations of serum calcium and phosphorus are to be conducted.UItrasonography and ECT~(99m)Tc-MIBI should be considered as the methods of first choice for preoperative localization.
