Objective:To explore the apoptosis inducing effect of matrine on C6 glioma cells and the related mechanisms.Methods:MTT assay was used to examine the inhibition of C6 glioma cell line by matrine at various concentrations and the IC50 was calculated.Inverted microscope and TEM(transmission electron microscope) were employed to observe the morphological alterations of C6 glioma cells after exposure to matrine;FCM(Flow cytometry) was used to detect the apoptosis rate of C6 glioma cells;and real-time PCR was used to examine the differential expression of related genes.ICC and Western blotting was used to detect the expression of caspase-3.Results:MTT showed that the cell inhibition effect of matrine increased with its concentration(0.1-1.0 mg/ml)(P

Objective To investigate the effect of esophageal variceal ligation (EVL) on portal hypertensive gastropathy (PHG). Methods Gastroscopic examinations were performed both before and after the EVL in 37 cases of PHG. Results The severity of PHG was correlated with the liver functions, and the morbidity of PHG was higher in cases of Child C (100%, 9/9) than in cases of Child A (60%, 12/20) or Child B (80%, 16/20) ( ? 2=18 452,P =0 001). PHG could be exasperated by the application of EVL, but no statistical significance was seen ( ? 2=3 512,P =0 173). On re-examination of gastroscopy 6~12 months later, no relapse or re-bleeding of esophageal varices or gastric mucosa hemorrhage occurred. Conclusions The worse the liver functions, the higher is the incidence of PHG. EVL treatment creates a tendency to aggravating PHG.

BACKGROUND:Bone turnover markers are the products in the blood or urine in the process of bone reconstruction, which can be used to evaluate bone resorption and bone formation rate, thereby indicating potential bone diseases. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the effect of exercise on the levels of bone turnover markers in the blood and urine samples. METHODS:Databases of PubMed and Wangfang were retrieved with key words of“bone formation, bone resorption, alkaline phosphotase, osteocalcin PICP, PINP, hydroxyproline, pyridinoline, tartrate resistant acid phosphatase”by screening titles and abstracts to search papers related to exercise effects on the biological markers of bone formation. Final y, 48 papers were discussed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The effect of exercise on bone turnover refers to the influence on bone formation and bone resorption. Exercise enhances or inhibits the activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, and accelerates or delays bone reconstruction by promoting or inhibiting the growth of osteoblasts and osteoclasts. In recent years, exercise exhibits more and more influence on the bone. Bone turnover markers compared with bone mineral density show changes earlier. By measuring the levels of bone turnover markers in blood and urine samples, it help us to understand the metabolism of bone tissue, to evaluate bone metabolic state, osteoporosis diagnosis classification, predicting of fracture risk, to observe the curative effect of drug treatment, and to diagnosis the metabolic bone differential disease.

Objective: To evaluate the pharmacodynamic of clematis. Methods: 1) The relaxation of isolated ileum muscle of guinea pig by clematic was tested. The antagonism of clematis on histamine or Ach induced ileum muscle contraction was tested also. 2) By using the model of turning of trunk, the pain releasing effect of clematis was evaluated. 3) The experiments about anti-inflammation action of clematis were carried out in two models. Results: Clematis relaxed the ileum muscle. It also antagonized the contraction of the muscle caused by histamine and Ach. A single intrapeditional administration of clematis to Kun-Ming mice significantly prolonged the latency and reduced the writhe number at the turning of trunk model; clematis dose-dependently inhibited the mouse ear swelling caused by xylol. It also had anti-inflammation effect at the other model. The results demonstrated that clematis could release the pain, suppress the inflammation and smooth muscle contraction.

Objective To analyze lesion patterns of lacunae-sized infarctions in the perforating arterial territory in terms of shape and determine whether the lesion patterns associate with their prognosis. Methods We consecutively included patients with confirmed lacunae-sized acute ischemic infarcts in the penetrating arterial territories on diffu?sion-weighted imaging(DWI)from Guangxi stroke center between June 2012 to September 2013. Based on diffu?sion-weighted MRI, the shape of ischemic infarcts were divided into oval or conglomerated beads shape. Demographics, risk factors and NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score at admission and discharge, Ranking score after three months and stroke mechanisms were analyzed. Results Among 189 patients, the conglomerated beads shape and oval shape of infarcts were detected in 69(36.5%)and 120(63.5%)patients, respectively. There were not difference between these two groups in de?mographics, risk factors and NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score at admission. However, the maximal diameter of the lesion was significantly larger in the conglomerated beads shape group than in the oval shape (13.8±2.3 mm vs. 10.6±3.2 mm, P=0.006). Early neurologic deterioration was also more commonly detected in the conglomerated beads shape group than in the oval shape group (24.6% vs. 5.0%,P=0.009). Early neurologic rehabilitation was slower in the conglomerated beads shape group than in the oval shape group(30.5% vs. 10.8%,P=0.018). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the conglomerated beads shape was significantly associated with early neurologic deterioration (OR=7.55, 95%CI:1.73~33.25,P=0.010) and was negatively related to early neurologic rehabilitation(OR=5.75, 95%CI:1.53~28.70,P=0.030). Conclusions The conglomerated beads shape of lacunae infarction is significantly associated with ear?ly neurologic deterioration and is negatively related to early neurologic rehabilitation.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinicopathologic characteristics of primary salivary gland-type lung carcinomas, and the immunophenotypic value of TTF-1, Napsin A and Ki-67 in their differential diagnosis.

METHODSTotally 48 special type lung cancer surgical removal specimens were collected in China-Japan Friendship Hospital during September 2009 to December 2014. A panel of immunohistochemical markers (TTF-1, Napsin A, Ki-67, CK5/6, CK7 and p63) were conducted on these specimens.

RESULTSThe 48 cases of special type lung cancer included 25 cases of primary salivary gland-type lung carcinoma (18 cases of adenoid cystic carcinoma and 7 cases of mucoepidermoid carcinoma), 5 cases pulmonary adenocarcinoma with mucoepidermoid carcinoma-like or adenoid cystic carcinoma-like structure, and 18 cases of pulmonary adenosquamous carcinoma. Compared with pulmonary adenocarcinoma with mucoepidermoid carcinoma-like or adenoid cystic carcinoma-like structure and pulmonary adenosquamous carcinoma, primary salivary gland-type lung carcinomas have special characteristics in median age, sex, location, tumor size, LN involvement and pleura invasion, with negative TTF-1 and Napsin A expression as well as lower Ki-67 index detected by immunohistochemistry. Primary salivary gland-type lung carcinomas usually have an indolent behavior.

CONCLUSIONSPrimary salivary gland-type lung carcinomas are low-aggressive entities. The origins of primary salivary gland-type lung carcinomas were different from that of pulmonary adenocarcinoma with mucoepidermoid carcinoma-like or adenoid cystic carcinoma-like structure and pulmonary adenosquamous carcinoma. Negative TTF-1 and Napsin A expression as well as Ki-67 index lower than 20% have special value for primary salivary gland-type lung carcinomas in their differential diagnosis.
