Objective To evaluate operation and chemotherapy in patients with stage Ⅱ testicular seminoma. Methods Forty-four patients with stage Ⅱ testicular seminoma collected from February 1993 to August 2007 were treated with cisplatin-based chemotherapy with repeated course. The retroperitoneal lymph node in ten patients were resected and two patients operated after chemotherapy. Results Resected tissue in eight patients after chemotherapy were necrosis and fibrosis, two patients were viable cancer. All patients were followed up for two to eight years. Five year survival rate was stage ⅡA 100 %(11/11), stage ⅡB 91.67 % (22124), stage Ⅱc 77.78 %(7/9). Conclusion For raising survival rate and controlling disease development of the patients who suffered from stage Ⅱ testieular seminoma,the repeated courses of chemotherapy should be given as early as possible.

Objective To observe the granule tissue remodeling under neoepithelium in minitype pigs' full thickness dermal wounds and discuss the relation between the remodeling and possible ulcers or scars. Methods After the establishment of eight full-thickness dermal wound models with the diameter of 4 cm on the back of six minitype pigs, the specimens were collected from wound edge and wound center immediately, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 45 days, respectively after injury for HE staining, immunohistochemical staining and Van Gieson staining and then observed under light microscope to count the cell number, fibroblasts and vascular endothelial cells as well as evaluate the quantity and arrangement of collagens. Results The mean wound healing time was (29.3?1.8) days. After 9-25 days, the granule tissues in the wound center contained more cells, fibroblasts, collagen and vascular endothelial cells than those under neoepithelium of wound edge (P 0.01). Meanwhile, the collagen quantity and arrangement style of granule tissues under neoepithelium during wounds healing (12-30 days) assembled those under neoepithelium 15 days after wound healing. Conclusion Granule tissue remodeling exists during the healing of full thickness dermal wound.

Objective To explore the relationship between the protective effect of hydrogen sulfide (H2 S ) postconditioning against myocardial hypoxia-reoxygenation and the dynamics of actin. Methods Adult rat cardiomyocytes were isolated and the same hatch cells were divided into 4 groups (n =3):normal group (group N),hypoxia-reoxygenation group (group HR),ischemia postconditioning group (group IPTC)and H2 S postconditioning group (group S).The four groups were divided into two sub-groups with or without cytochalasin D (CyD).At the end of reoxygenation,F-actin/G-actin,intracellular calcium ion concentration (Ca2+ )and pH value were detected with laser scanning confocal microscopy, meanwhile the level of p-p38MAPK was detected with Western blot.Results The fluorescence intensity of F-actin/G-actin of group HR,group IPTC and group S were significantly higher than that of group N (P <0.05).The fluorescence intensity of Ca2+ of group HR was higher than that of group N,group IPTC and group S (P <0.05);The intensity of Ca2+ of all group with CyD treatment was higher than those without (P <0.05);The fluorescence intensity of pHi of group N and group HR with CyD treatment was higher than those without;The fluorescence intensity of pHi of group IPTC and group S was lower than those without;The flu-orescence intensity of pHi of group HR was lower than that of group N,group IPTC and group S (P <0.05), respectively;the pHi of group N and group HR sub-group with CyD treatment was higher than those without correspondingly (P <0.05),however,the pHi of IPTC and S sub-groups were lower than their corresponding groups (P <0.05).The level of p-p38MAPK in group HR was significantly higher than those of other groups (P <0.05);there was no difference among groups N,IPTC and S.Conclusion Hydrogen sulfide postcondi-tioning could promote F-actin to remodel and stabilize the cellular environment.Hypoxia-reoxygenation pro-motes the phosphorylation level of p38MAPK,which could be surpressed by H2 S postconditioning.
