Objective To study the mechanism of spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods Articles have been reviewed to find out the theory of spontaneous rupture of HCC.Results Researchful results suggested that the injury of small arteries was usually followed in patients of spontaneous rupture of HCC.In this review,the immune complex,which composed of hepatitis B virus e antigen,complement C1q and immunoglobulins,was found deposited in the elastic membrane of arteries.Likely as a result of immune complex deposition,vascular injury occurs mainly in the small arteries where the deposition of immune complex was present.The small arteries in which immune complex deposited are readily injuried and cause hemorrhage and rupture of HCC during vascular load increase. Conclusion We would conclude that immune complex deposition in vessel wall led to the small arteries injury may be the factor involved in the pathogenesis of spontaneous ruptured HCC.

A gas chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry coupled with solid phase microextraction method ( SPME-GC/QQQ) was developed for the determination of chlorinated anilines ( CAs) residues in soil. The multi-reaction monitoring ( MRM ) parameters were optimized. The SPME conditions such as amount of soil sample, volume of added water, extraction temperature and absorption time were investigated. Optimum SPME conditions including 8 g of soil sample, 4 mL of water, 80℃ of extraction temperature and 40 min of absorption time were employed in the experiment. Method detection limits were within the range of 1-10 pg/g, while linearities were within the range of 5-1000 pg/g. Under the optimized conditions, the soil samples spiked with 200 pg/g targets were determined with recoveries of 96. 8%-144. 2%and relative standard deviations of 13 . 4%-27 . 8% ( n=5 ) . The proposed method combines simplicity and rapidity of SPME and high selectivity of MRM. It is especially suitable for the quick screening and determination of trace amounts of chlorinated anilines residues in soil.

Objective To study the relationship between the changes of ten elemental contents in serum and schizophrenia.Methods Calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), aluminum (Al), arsenic (As), selenium (Se), copper (Cu), lead (Pb), manganese (Mn) in serum in the of schizophrenic patients and normal subjects are measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer and inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer, compared the content of elements between the schizophrenia and normal.Results There were significant differences ( P<0.05) in other elements between two groups except lead.The contents of Ca,Fe,Mg,Zn,As,Se,Cu in the patients with schizophrenia were significantly lower than those in control, while Al, Mn were significantly higher than those in control.Most of elements in serum between case and control groups were correlated (P<0.05).Some of element ratios which have physiological significance were significant statistically (P<0.05), such as: Ca/Mg, Ca/Fe and so on.Conclusion These findings suggest that the patients with schizophrenia might have an abnormal elemental metabolism.Given the relationship among the elements, the element ratios are more valuable in reflecting the relationship between schizophrenia and elements.

Objective To observe apoptosis and proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells and to explore the mechanism of protective effects of rhubarb monomers on intestinal epithelial cells in septic rats.Methods Eighty male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (230-250 g) under anesthesia and sedation were subjected to cecal ligation and perforation (CLP).After surgical preparation,rats were randomly (ramdom number) divided into 8 groups (n =10 each):a sham group (A) [normal saline (NS) gavage];a sepsis group (B) (NS gavage);group C (ip dexamethasone 0.5 mg/kg immediately after CLP) (C);and rhubarb monomer 100 mg/kg in NS treated groups including:rhein group (D),emodin group (E),3,8-dihydroxy-1-methyl-anthraquinone-2-carboxylic acid group (F),1-O-caffeoyl-2-(4-hydroxy-O-cinnamoyl)-D-glucose group (G),and 3,8-dihydroxy-1-methyl-anthraquione group (H).Animals were sacrificed 24 hrs after treatment.Intestinal histopathology,apoptosis (TUNEL) and proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells (proliferating cell nuclear antigen,PCNA) were measured.Multiple comparisons were carried out with one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA).Results Histopathology revealed injury to the intestinal mucosal villi induced by sepsis in group B compared with group A.The injury was significantly ameliorated in groups C,D,E,F,G,and H compared with group B.The apoptosis index in group B was significantly higher than that in group A (P ＜ 0.05) and the apoptosis index in groups C,D,E,F,G,and H was significantly lower than that in group B (P ＜ 0.05).The PCNA positive index in group B was significantly lower than that in group A (P ＜ 0.05),but was significantly higher in groups C,D,E,F,G,and H than that in group B (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Rhubarb monomers can promote the proliferation of mucosal cells and prevent apoptosis of intestinal mucosal cells.In addition,rhubarb monomers may play a role in protecting the intestinal barrier function.

Objectives 99mTc-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) SPECT imaging technology was used to observe the condition of tumor cell in-taking imaging agent in the C57BL/6J mice Lewis lung cancer model before and after using Ginsenoside Rg3 (short for Rg3).We aimd so as to discuss the feasibility of using this method to evaluate tumor multidrug resistance (MDR) status.Methods Mice Lewis lung cancer models were randomly divided into Rg3 group and the control group.After applying Rg3,semi-quantitative analysis was made on 99mTc-MIBI SPECT imaging and region of interest (ROI) to observe the multidrug resistance state of tumor and then the results were compared with the detection results of flow cytometry.Results The tumor intake ratio (T/N) difference between the control group and the Rg3 group in imaging,imaging before applying Rg3 and imaging after applying Rg3 were separately 15,60 and 120 min.The differences were statistical significant (P ＜ 0.01).The eliminate indexes (WR) of the control group and Rg3 group were positively related to P-gp protein expression positive cells detected by flow cytometry (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions 99mTc-MIBI imaging is negatively related to P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expression in mice Lewis lung cancer cells,which can clearly show the multidrug resistance state of tumors and dynamically monitor the effect of Rg3 on multidrug resistance reversion of mice Lewis lung cancer.

Objective To explore the in vivo killing effects of nanosecond pulsed electric fields on mouse breast cancer in tumor bearing BALB/c mice. Methods Twenty four BALB/c mice models with subcutaneous EMT-6 breast cancer were prepared and divided into experimental group and control group (n=12). In experimental group, the mice were treated by the pulsed electric fields with peak voltage of 700 V/cm, rise times of 57 ns, durations of 70μs and duty ratio of 50%on the tumor tissue with two parallel electrodes under anaesthesia. One hundred pulses were given and the energy was just 9.75 J with effective action period of 7 ms. Tumor volume, animal weight and histopathologic changes after 1, 3, 5 and 7 d were observed after irreversible electroporation. Results The tumor volume in experimental group increased more slowly than that in control group, especially at the 1-3 d after treatment with a standstill. Histopathological examination results showed that the tumor tissue had obvious coagulation necrosis and tissue edema after electrical stimulation treatment, and mass vacuole like structure appeared in tumor tissue from the third day after treatment and vascular injury occurred at the early stage. Conclusions In the given field conditions, steep pulsed electric field has inhibitory effect on tumor growth. In order to achieve more ideal tumor therapy effect, further studies on steep pulse dose are needed.
