SUMO (small ubiquitin-related modifier) is involved in the post-translational modifications of proteins,and this process is referred to as SUMOylation.SUMOylation plays an important role in the regulation of cellular activities such as strengthening the stability of the protein,nucleocytoplasmic transport,DNA repair,DNA replication,mitotic and meiotic chromosome behavior,et al.SUMOylation is a dynamic process and can be reversed by SUMO-specific proteases (SENP).Once the balance between SUMOylation and de-SUMOylation is broken,there will be an aberrant expression of SUMO or SENPs in cells to happen,which may lead to the tumor occturtrence.

With the improvement of survival outcome by modern surgical treatment,more and more attention has been paid to the postoperative quality of life.As known,the most related factor of postoperative quality of life is the pattern of digestive tract reconstruction.Current evidences indicate that Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy + jejunal pouch has some advantages in total gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy might be most suitable reconstruction in distal gastrectomy.Pylorns-preserving gastrectomy and proximal gastrectomy are only considered in early gastric cancer,i.e.predictive cTlcN0.Pylorus-preserving gastrectomy does not exactly superior to distal gastrectomy.Total gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy is superior to proximal gastrectomy with esophagogastrostomy.For unresectable lower tumor with gastric outlet obstruction,gastric cancer Devine exclusion + gastrojejunostomy might be better than simple gastrojejunostomy,while stent placement is safer and suitable for predictively short-term survival,poor performance status or senility patients.However,the current available evidences of reconstruction in gastric cancer surgery is still poor in quality and more high-quality large-scale multi-center randomized controlled trials are required to resolve the controversies.

Objective To evaluate the effect and safety of transobturator inside-out tension-free urethral suspension (TVT-O) as the surgical treatment on post-operational recurrence of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Methods Eleven women with SUI recurrence who underwent TVT-O were selected in the research. Their incontinence recurred from 1 months to 8 years after the previous surgical treatment.Results The operative time was (28 ±9) min, the bleeding volume was (15 ±5) ml. Postoperative complications: urinary retention in 1 case, vaginal erosion in 1 case. Follow-up was enforced for 6-36months, median time was 16 months. Grouts-Blaivas analogue scale:among the 11 patients, 9 patients were cured, 2 patients were improved. ICI-Q-SF score: preoperative 13-21 ( 15.36 ± 2.34) scores compared to postoperative 0-9 (1.46 ±3.27) scores (t =5.850,P ＜0.01 ). I-QOL score: preoperative 23.33-36.67(29.85 ± 4.74) scores compared to postoperative 66.67-100.00 (95.15 ± 10.12) scores (t = 17.753,P ＜0.01 ). PISQ-12 score of 10 patients: preoperative 16-25 (20.10 ± 3.07) scores compared to postoperative 11-20( 14.00 ± 2.83 ) scores (t = 11.600, P ＜ 0.01 ). Conclusion If conservative treatments fail, TVT-O is highly effective and safe for the postoperative recurrent SUI.

AIM: To study the effects of oxidized high-density lipoprotein (oxHDL) on the expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1) and intracellular free calcium concentration （［Ca2＋］i） level in cultured human umbilical venous endothelial cells(HUVECs). METHODS: The MCP-1 protein content in the medium of conditioned HUVEC was measured by ELISA, and the ICAM-1 on HUVECs was detected by indirect immunofluorescence, and ［Ca2＋］i was determined by Fluo-3/AM, the injury of cells was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).RESULTS: oxHDL could induce the expression of MCP-1 and ICAM-1 in HUVECs. In oxHDL group (HUVECs were incubated with 100 mg protein/L oxHDL for 24 h), the levels of MCP-1, ICAM-1 and ［Ca2＋］i increased by 160%, 60% and 70% respectively compared with the control group (P＜0.01). When HUVECs were incubated with 300 mg protein/L oxHDL for 24 h, cells were injured obviously. CONCLUSION: By inducing the expression of ICAM-1 and MCP-1 in endothelial cells, oxHDL may promote monocyte-endothelium adhesion and monocyte migration to intima, it may promote atherosclerosis as oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL).

To increase the identification of pharyngeal bursa invasive fungal disease with lower cranial nerve involvement, reduce the misdiagnosis and improve the awareness of invasive fungal disease. We report the clinical data of a case with lower cranial nerve involvement as the first manifestation and reviewed the related literature.

Objective:To study the preparation technology of ambroxol hydrochloride double-layer tablets and evaluate the drug re-lease in vitro. Methods:The best technology was screened by orthogonal design, and the drug release in vitro was evaluated by UV spectrophotometry. Results:The drug release in vitro was in accordance with the corresponding standard. Conclusion:The preparation technology is simple and the quality is stable for industrial production.

BACKGROUND:The research for mesenchymal stem cels in the treatment of liver cirrhosis has made great progress. However,t-test analysis is often misused in clinical practice. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the efficacy and safety of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cel therapy for liver cirrhosis by repeated measurement method. METHODS: A total of 27 patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis underwent conventional medical treatments, including liver protection treatment and symptomatic treatment. At 1 week after hospitalization, patients were given intravenous transplantation of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cels (passages 2-4), cel viability≥ 90%, stem cel counting≥ 2×107 cels, four times with an interval of 5-7 days. Analysis of variance based on repeated measurement data was performed to analyze the liver function changes at different time after umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cel transplantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The results of univariate repeated measurement showed that at 2 and 3 months after treatment, the serum albumin level was increased and the total bilirubin level in serum was decreased significantly (P < 0.05); at 3 months after treatment, the content of aspartate aminotransferase decreased, and the content of cholinesterase increased significantly (P < 0.05). No patient appeared to have liver and other organ tumors during the observation period. These findings indicate that umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cel transplantation is effective and safe in the treatment of liver cirrhosis, which can significantly improve patient's liver functions.

Defensin is a cysteine-rich, low molecular weight and cationic antimicrobial peptide. Human breast milk con-tains high level of defensin. The defensin in human breast milk can not only inhibit the growth of various pathogenic microorgan-isms, but also promote the development of infant immune system and reduce the incidence of infantile upper respiratory infection. Nowadays, the roles of defensin in breast milk is more recognized. This paper focuses on the molecular characteristics of human defensin, its antibacterial and antiviral roles, and the latest progress in defensin research.

Objective This article made an exploration on the feasibility of combined applica-tion of TBL with LBL in immunology experiment teaching, and analyzed teaching effectiveness of such combined model in order to find a new way of teaching reformation. Methods 2012 grade biophar-maceutical technology students were chosen in this research, one class as the experimental group(n=42), the other one as control group(n=42). In the experimental group, students were taught on a TBL+LBL combination model, while in the control group, students were taught only on LBL model. After the course was finished, effects of teaching were evaluated by questionnaire survey and compre-hensive ability evaluation. SPSS 18.0 software was used to do statistical analysis. Quantitative data and qualitative data were analyzed by t test and chi-square test respectively. P<0.05 means that difference is statistically significant. Results Above 90.0% of students in experiment group approved that TBL+LBL can improve the interest in learning , can enhance sense of teamwork , can help acquiring of knowledge and improving of individual comprehensive ability. Average score of comprehensive ability evaluation and percentage of students achieving good score in experimental group were higher than those in control group, the differences were statistically significant(t=2.020, P=0.049; χ2=6.372, P=0.012). Conclusion The TBL+LBL combination model can improve immunology experiment teach-ing quality, and is worth publicizing.
