Objective:To understand outcome of heroin addicts after abstinence and analyze the factors related to relapse. Methods:A follow-up of 149 heroin addicts in a correction camp was carried out at 6th months after their discharge. Demographic characteristics, clinical features, addiction severity and psychiatric comorbidity were compared between those who relapsed and those who remained abstinent. Results: 22.8% of the subjects were abstinent, 46.3% relapsed, 29.5% in probation or in treatment,1.3% died. Relapse was related to the presence of drug addiction in family members, lack of abstinence intention, antisocial personality disorder, lack of rehabilitation therapy, intravenous heroin use and ASI scores in heroin abuse, composite family/social and legal factors. Conclusion:The outcome of heroin dependence after correction was poor. Relapse was related to family environment, abstinence intention, the heroin addiction severity,antisocial personality disorder.

Objective　To summarize and analyze human rabies epidemic situation in the last five years in China and to explore the possible factors causing the rising of epidemics to provide reference for the prevention and control of rabies in the future. Methods　Collecting and analyzing data of rabies epidemics in the last five years in whole nation. Results　Human rabies is continuing going up in the last five years in China with an increase of 44.65%, 1.74% and 45.93% in 1997, 1998, 1999. Human rabies incidence was also seen an increase from 0.013　4/100 000 in 1996 to 0.027　08/100 000 in 1999. The provinces of rabies increase were mainly located in south China. Among them, Jiangsu province reported 40 human cases in 1999, which increased 207.69% than the corresponding period in 1998. The cases in these high epidemic provinces took up 75% of the whole nation's cases. Number of reported rabies case was also rising. Conclusion　Facts as increasing number of dog raising, having not been injected with rabies vaccine and antirabies serum timely or full course after exposure, unstrictly controlling the quality of rabies vaccine as well as lacking good cooperation in different official department on rabies control might serve as factors responsible for the recurrent increase of human rabies.

Objective To express and purify recombinant protease with thrombolysis activity of Perinereis aibuhitensis Grube and study on its characterization.Methods pMAL-PPA was in- troduced into E.coli DH5?to construct engineering bacteria and overexpression of the prote- ase of fused with maltose binding protein(MBP-PPA)was achieved with IPTG induction. The fusion protein was purified by affinity chromatography on amylose-resin column fol- lowed by chromatography on a DEAE-sepharose FF column.PPA cut with Factor Xa was assayed using casein plates supplied with plasminogen.Results Engineering bacteria express- ing maltose binding protein-thrombolytic protease of P.aibuhitensis were constructed and overexpression of MBP-PPA was achieved with IPTG induction.A recombinant fusion pro- tein of 51kD was purified,and PPA cut down from the fusion protein had a plasminogen-acti- rating activity.The protease showed a good thermal stability with an optimal pH of 8.0. This enzyme was also relatively stable in a pH range of 6.0～9.0 and still active after stored in organic solvents for 20d.Conclusion PPA was verified as a plasminogen activator,and might be a new thrombolytic medicine in the future.

Objective To investigate the effect of cetuximab (C225) on the radiosensitivity of colorectal cancer cells CL187 and underlying mechanism.Methods Cell survival was detected by colony forming assay.The levels of apoptosis and cell cycle distribution were determined by flow cytometer.The mitotic ratio was measured by Wright' s-Giemsa mixed coloring method.The protein levels of Bax and Bcl2 were detected by Western blot.Results The sensitizing enhancement ratio of C225 was approximately 1.4.C225 treatment and 125I seed radiation induced G1 cell cycle arrest individually.C225 increased the radiation-induced apoptosis (t =6.6,P ＜ 0.05) and cellular Bax/Bcl-2 ratio (t =9.4,P ＜ 0.05),but did not increase radiation-induced G1 arrest.In addition,there was no difference in mitotic index among different groups.Conclusions C225 sensitizes CL187 to 125I seed irradiation,which might be related with increase of radiation-induced apoptosis.

Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics of 15 cases of Poland's syndrome and to explore the suitable treatment strategies. Methods A retrospective study of 15 adult patients with Poland's syndrome was conducted and the related literature was reviewed. According to the development of pectoralis muscles and breast, chest deformities were classified into 2 grades: mild and severe. Mild form was limited to absence of partial pectoralis major muscle, with variable hypoplasia of other minor components (such as the size of breast and the size and position of the nipple-areola complex), leading to a mild chest wall asymmetry. Severe form was characterized by absence or severe hypoplasia of the pectoralis major muscle and mammary gland with an evident chest wall asymmetry. Combined with gender, adult patients were divided into 4 types: female mild, female severe, male mild, and male severe. Each type had its own treatment strategies based on its anatomic features: silicone implant insertion for female mild type;latissimus dorsi muscular flap transposition and silicone implant insertion for female severe type;fat injection for male mild type;latissimus dorsi muscular flap transposition for male severe type of the patients. From 2003 to 2008, 15 adult cases were admitted to our ward, aged from 16 to 34 years.The case number of each type was 6, 6, 2 and 1, respectively. One severe female patients rejected any surgical interventions;the others were all treated as the above. Results Follow-up periods ranged from 6 months to 4 years. This series had got satisfactory results with good breast symmetry and natural texture. All the latissimus dorsi muscular flaps survived well. No postoperative complications, such as implant capsular contracture or implant displacement, were observed. Conclusion The manifestations of Poland's syndrome are extremely varied. This classification method is simple but useful, which could effectively direct the individualized treatment for the complete and adequate rehabilitation. Latissimus dorsi muscular flap, pedicled or free transplanted, pulsing silicone implant in females, are the first choices for severe chest deformations of this syndrome.

Purpose To explore the biological significance of BCL-6 and ZEB2 in invasion,metastasis and prognosis of breast cancer.Methods The expressions of BCL-6,ZEB2 protein and mRNA were detected respectively in 228 cases of breast cancer and 80 cases of breast benign lesions by immunohistochemical SP two-step staining and situ hybridization.Result The expression levels of BCL-6,ZEB2 protein and mRNA in breast cancer tissues were significantly higher than in breast benign lesions (P ＜ 0.05).The expressions of BCL-6 was positively correlated with tumor size,lymphatic metastasis,histological grade,TNM staging and HER-2 expression (P ＜ 0.05).The expressions of ZEB2 was positively correlated with tumor size,lymphatic metastasis,TNM staging and HER-2 expression (P ＜ 0.05).The overall survival and relapse-free survival of BCL-6 and ZEB2 positive expression were significantly less than the negative expression (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The BCL-6 and ZEB2 are closely correlated with the evolution process of breast cancer,which may become important means for monitoring and warning the metastasis,invasion,and prognosis of breast cancer.

OBJECTIVE:To study chemical compounds of Monoraphidium dybowskii,and to investigate the in vitro antibacte-rial and antioxidant activities of isolated compounds. METHODS:The ethanol extract of M. dybowskii were extracted with aether petrolei,ethyl acetate and n-butyl alcohol. The ethyl acetate extract was separated from M. dybowskii and chemical components were analyzed by sillica gel column chromatogram,HPLC and GC-MS. Their structures were identified according to physicochemi-cal properties and NMR. MIC of 4 isolated compounds to Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Candida albicans,Bacillus subtilis and Esche-richia coli were determined by resazurin disc test. Free radical scavenging rate(concluated by IC50)and reducing capacity were mea-sured by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-diazanyl (DPPH) and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay. RESULTS:Compounds 1-6 were obtained from E4 and E5 segments of ethyl acetate extract of M. dybowskii,and their structures were identified as stigmas-terol,diisonoyladipate,indole-3-carboxylic acid,(+)-epiloliolide,(-)-loliolide,5-hydroxy-3,4-dimethy-5-pentyl-2(5H)-furanone. MIC of compounds 3-6 were 10-500 μg/mL,and IC50 ranged 22.02-71.01 μg/mL;FRAP ranged (62.04 ± 5.36)-(281.22 ± 8.3) μmol/L. CONCLUSIONS:M. dybowskii contains multiple lipid and alkanoic acid,and possesses certain in vitro antibacterial and antioxidant activities.

Objective To investigate the effect of C225 on DNA repair and molecular pathways in CL187 colorectal cancer cells after irradiated by 125Ⅰ radioactive seeds.Methods In the experiment involved were four groups:control group,100 nmol/L C225 treatment group,125Ⅰ radioactive seeds continuous low-dose rate irradiation group and C225 combined with 125Ⅰ radioactive seeds continuous lowdose rate irradiation group.Cells were collected at 48 h after 4 Gy irradiation,and γH2AX foci/cell and γH2AX foci positive cells were counted with immunofluorescence.At the same time,DNA repair proteins were detected by Western blot.Cells were lyzed immediately after 4 Gy irradiation,and changs in EGFR downstream signaling molecules were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with 125Ⅰ seeds irradiated cells,cells treated with C225 and 125Ⅰ seeds irradiation showed more γH2AX foci per cell (t =8.0,P =0.05),and more γH2AX foci positive cells (t =6.8,P ＜ 0.05) and less expression of Ku70 (t =6.6,P ＜ 0.05) and DNA-PKcs (t =5.6,P ＜ 0.05).Combined with 125Ⅰ-CLDR irradiation,C225 reduced cellular EGFR level(t =4.9,P ＜0.05) and inhibited the activation of Akt(t =5.5,P ＜0.05).Conclusions In the condition of 125Ⅰ seeds irradiation,C225 reduced the expression of Ku70 and DNA-PKcs,inhibited the activation of Akt and attenuated the DNA damage repair capacity in CL187 colorectal cancer cells.
