Objective To explore the expression of beta 2 adrenergic receptors(?2-AR) in bone marrow cells and its significance and provide a scientific basis for the theory of hematopoietic regulation by nerve factors.Methods After bone marrow mononuclear cells were isolated from normal mouse bone marrow by the Ficoll density gradient centrifugation,the expressions of ?2-AR were studied by immunohistochemistry in bone marrow mononuclear cells,cultured bone marrow stromal cells,GM-CFUs,paraffin sections and smears of bone marrow.Mouse models of immune-mediated aplastic anemia(AA) were made by lymphocyte infusion.Mice were divided into 3 groups including animal model group,?2-AR antagonist (ICI 118551) group,and control group,and the expression of ?2-AR in bone marrow mononuclear cells at the 8 th day was detected by Western blotting.Results The positive expression of ?2-AR in cytoplasm or membrane of normal mouse bone marrow cells showed different brown by immunohistochemical staining.There were intensive positive expressions of ?2-AR in mononuclear cells(48%) and bone marrow stromal cells (68%),while progenitor cells only showed middle-positive(55%)or weak positive(45%),and other hematopoietic accessory cells were positive in varying degrees.The relative values of ?2-AR of bone marrow mononuclear cells in 3 groups were 1.03?0.31,1.72?0.29 and 1.41?0.35,respectively;the expression of ?2-AR in animal model group was more lower than that in control group(P

Objective To study the clinical effects on patients with brain metastases from lung cancer combined with Elemene Injection and radiotherapy. Method 86 patients with brain metastases from lung cancer were randomly divided into control group and treatment group, 43 cases in each group. Control group was given conventional radiotherapy treatment, while treatment group combined Elemene Injection with radiotherapy. Results Compared with control group, treatment group’s disease control effect was obviously better. Survival rates after treatment for six months, one year, three years were higher than control group, and the number of adverse reactions were lower. Serum MMP-2 and MMP-9 levels were significantly greater. Radiotherapy plan time and total time in hospital for treatment were significantly shorter. Conclusion The combination of Elemene Injection with radiotherapy treatment for patients with brain metastases from lung cancer is very obvious.

Objective To study the anti-neuroglioma effect of methyl-mercuric chloride(MMC) by observing the morphological changes of apoptotic neuroglioma cells induced with MMC in rats with brain neuroglioma.Methods The rat models of neuroglioma were established,and divided into two groups.The rats in experimental group were lavaged with MMC 1 week after injected with C6 glioma cells,10 mg?kg-1every day,the rats in control group were treated with sodium chloride at the same dose.24 d after inoculation all rats were sacrificed except natural death,the brain tissues were obtained,and the pathohistological changes were observed under light microscope and transmission electron microscope.Results The macropathological result showed that the tumor volume in experimental group was smaller than that in control group.Under light microscope,in experimental group the growth density of C6 ghioma cells was lower than that in control group,and the apoptotic cells with smaller volume and karyopyknosis were found.The result of transmission electron microscope showed that in experimental group,the glioma cells had some changes such as karyopyknosis,chromoplasm margination,nuclear fragmentation and vacuolar degeneration and so on.Conclusion MMC has inhibitory effect on the proliferation of C6 glioma in rats in vivo,its mechanism may be related to inducing the apoptosis of neuroglioma cells.

Objective To evaluate the difference between nodal and extra-nodal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in clinical-pathological feature and prognosis.Methods The clinical data of 134 cases of DLBCL patients were reviewed and analyzed.Results The DLBCL patients accounted for 52.14 % (134/257) of non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the same period and the extra-nodal DLBCL patients accounted for 69.4 %.The proportion of stage Ⅲ/Ⅳ disease in extra-nodal DLBCL and nodal DLBCL were 55.9 % (52/93) and 75.6 %(31/41),respectively.Elevated LDH was reported in 33.3 % (31/93) of extra-nodal DLBCL and 58.5 % (24/41)of nodal DLBCL Other clinical characteristics such as B symptoms,bulky disease,elevated ESR,ECOG scores and IPI scores were not significantly different between these two groups (all P > 0.05).No difference in the frequency of GCB and non-GCB subtypes was observed between extra-nodal and nodal DLBCL (P =0.623).The 3-year overall survival rates and 3-year progression free survival rates for extra-nodal and nodal DLBCL were 73.2 %,55.2 % (P =0.065) and 46.3 %,44.1% (P =0.748).Conclusions The morbidity of extranodal DLBCL is high.Primary extra-nodal DLBCL patients present early-stage disease and normal LDH more frequently than the nodal DLBCL,while no significant difference in the frequency of pathological subtypes and 3-year OS and PFS is observed between these two groups.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the epidermiology, clinicopathological features and prognosis of primary extra-nodal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (PE-NHL).
METHODSThe clinicopathological data of 151 patients diagnosed as PE-NHL in the First Affiliated Hospital of Jilin University between January 2007 and December 2011 were reviewed and analyzed.
RESULTSThe proportion of PE-NHL patients was 58.8% among all the non-Hodgkin's lymphoma cases, with the average age of 52 years, and the male/female ratio was 1.16:1. The most frequently involved site was the stomach (30.5%) followed by nose and sinuses (19.9%) and Waldeyer's ring (17.2%). The most common subtype was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (55.0%), followed by NK/T (18.5%) and extra-nodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) ( 13.2%). The distribution of clinical stages was as follows: stage I 20.5%, II 29.8%, III 29.1%, and IV 20.5%. Most nasal PE-NHL is in early stages, with a proportion of 76.7% in stages I & II. The 3-year overall survival rate was 73.2% and 3-year progression free survival rate was 46.6% in the PE-DLBCL patients. The International Prognosis Index (IPI) could be used to estimate the prognosis of PE-DLBCL well. Multivariate analysis showed that ESR and curative effect of the first treatment were independent prognostic factors for PE-DLBCL patients.
CONCLUSIONSThe incidence of PE-NHL is quite high, and the most common primary extra-nodal site is the gastro-intestinal tract and the most common subtype is diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Risk groups based on IPI can indicate the prognosis of PE-DLBCL to some extent, but only the ESR and curative effect of the first treatment are confirmed to be independent risk factors.

BACKGROUNDHelicobacter pylori (Hp) is a common and potentially curable cause of gastric mucosa lesion. This study investigated the relationship of Hp infection with histological changes in gastric mucosa and gastric cancer in Hp-positive patients compared with Hp-eradication patients followed up for ten years.
METHODSFrom an initial group of 1 006 adults, 552 Hp-positive subjects were randomly assigned to a treatment group (T; n = 276) or a placebo group (P; n = 276). In the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel trial, T group subjects received oral doses of omeprazole, amoxicillin and clarithromycin for 1 week; those in the P group received a placebo. One month after treatment ended, a 13C urea breath test was performed, and Hp was undetectable in 88.89% of the T group. All subjects were followed at 1, 5, 8, and 10 years after treatment, with endoscopy and biopsies for histological examination.
RESULTSGastric mucosa inflammation was significantly milder in the T group than that in the P group one year after Hp eradication and this persisted for 10 years. Glandular atrophy and intestinal metaplasia (IM) had deteriorated in both groups during ten years. However, the increased score of glandular atrophy at both the gastric antrum and corpus, and IM only at the gastric antrum, in the P group was more obvious than that in the T group. During the 10 years, 9 patients were diagnosed with gastric cancer (2 in the T group; 7 in the P group; P = 0.176). When mucosal atrophy was absent at the gastric antrum and corpus when entering the study, the incidence of gastric cancer in the P group (n = 6) was much higher than that in the T group (n = 0, P = 0.013).
CONCLUSIONSHp eradication may significantly diminish and help halt progression of gastric mucosal inflammation and delay the development of IM and atrophy gastritis. Hp eradication is helpful for reducing the risk for gastric cancer, especially in the early stage of Hp infection.
