Objective To Study the expression and clinical meaning of nm23-H1,c-Met and survivin protein in gastric carcinoma tissue.Methods Expression of nm23-H1,c-Met and survivin protein in 50 paraffin block samples of gastric carcinoma were detected by S-P immunohistochemistry technology.The relationship of expression to tumor differentiation degree,infiltration depth,lymph node metastasis,TNM stage,tumor metastasis and reeidivation were analyzed.Results The positive expression rates of nm23-H1,c-Met and survivin protein were 46%,72% and 80%,low nm23-H1 protein expression and high c-Met protein expression correlated tightly with TNM stage and lymph node metastasis of gastric carcinoma,high survivin protein expression correlated tightly with differentiation degree,TNM stage and lymph node metastasis of gastric carcinoma,there was a inverse correlation between nm23-H1 protein expression and survivin,but a direct correlation between c-Met and survivin.Conclusions Low nm23-H1 protein expression and high c-Met and survivin expression has important guidance significance of making a early diagnosis and judging prognosis.Selective gene therapy guided by these may be helpful.

Objective To investigate the effect of hydrogen sulfide postconditioning on the systolic function of left ventricle during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (IR) in rats. Methods Part Ⅰ Adult male SD rats weighing 200-250 g were anesthetized with pentobarbital 40 mg/kg and heparin 250 U/kg. Their hearts were excised and perfused in a Langendorff apparatus with K-H solution saturated with 95% O2-5% CO2 at 37 ℃. Forty isolated rat hearts were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n = 8 each) after 20 min of equilibration: control group (group C); IR group; sodium hydrosulfide 1,10, 100 μmol/L postconditioning group (group SP1, SP10, SP100 ).In group Cthe hearts were perfused continuously for another 100 min. In group IR, the hearts were reperfused for 60 min after 40 min ischemia induced by 10 ml/kg ST. Thomas solution. In group SP1 , SP10 and SP100 the hearts were perfused with K-H solution containing sodium hydrosulfide 1, 10, 100 μmol/L for 2 min before reperfusion.LVDP and ± dp/dtmax were recorded at the end of equilibration and reperfusion. Part Ⅱ Cardiomyocytes were isolated from the male SD rats (weighing 200-250 g) and then cultured in CO2 incubator for 4 h. Sixty-four dishes of cultured myocytes were randomly divided into 4 groups( n = 16 each): control group (group C), hypoxia/reoxygenation group (group HR), hydrogen sulfide postconditioning group (group SP) and hypoxia postconditioning group (group HP). Group C were cultured continuously for 2 h. Group HR, SP and HP were exposed to 1 h hypoxia (95%N2-5%CO2 ) followed by 1 h reoxygenation. In group SP 10 μmol/L sodium hydrosulfide was added and the myocytes were then incubated for 2 min before reoxygenation. In group HP the cultured myocytes were expased to 3 min reoxygenation followed by 3 min hypoxia for 3 times before the 1 h reoxygenation. Mitochondrial membrane potential and F-actin expression were determined. Results Part Ⅰ Compared with group C, LVDP and ± dp/dtmax were significantly decreased at the end of reperfusion in group IR (P < 0.05), while no significant difference was found in group SP1 , SP10 and SP100(P >0.05). Compared with group IR, LVDP and ± dp/dtmax were significantly increased in group SP ( P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in LVDP and ± dp/dtmax among group SP1, SP10 and SP100(P >0.05). Part H Compared with group C, the mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly decreased in group HR and HP, and the expression of F-actin was significantly up-regulated in group HR, SP and HP ( P < 0.05). Compared with group HR, the mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly increased and the expression of F-actin up-regulated in group SP and HP ( P < 0.05 ). There were no significant difference in the mitochondrial membrane potential and expression of F-actin between group SP and HP ( P >0.05).Conclusion Hydrogen sulfide postconditioning can improve left ventricular systolic function during IR in rats by stabilizing mitochondrial membrane potential and promoting aggregation of F-actin.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate part mechanisms of Th cell differentiation, and to observe the interference effect of Qingxin-II Recipe in the chronic stage of viral myocarditis (VMC), so as to provide some experimental evidences for illuminating the pathogenesis of VMC and treatment mechanisms of Qingxin-II Recipe. METHODS: According to 20%-40% death rate of experiment in advance, 100 BALB/c male mice (4 weeks old and weighing 12-15 g) were used. Twenty mice were randomly assigned to normal control group, and the other 80 mice were intraperitoneally injected with 0.1 ml normal saline containing coxsackie virus B3 at the 1st, 4th and 28th day (the virus densities were 1:2000, 1:1000 and 1:500 respectively) to induce chronic VMC. At the 42nd day, the surviving mice were randomly divided into untreated group and treatment group, with 20 mice in each group. Mice in the treatment group were orally administered with 0.2 ml Qingxin-II Recipe every day, while mice in the normal control group and the untreated group were administered with 0.2 ml normal saline. All the mice were sacrificed after 45 days, and the sera, heart and spleen cells were collected. Then the myocardial pathological changes were observed by using a light microscope, and the levels of IL-4, IL-10 and IFN-gamma in serum were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). And the Th cell differentiation was observed by flow cytometry. RESULTS: No obvious myocardial pathological changes were observed in mice of the normal control group. Myocardial pathological changes in the treatment group were slighter than those in the untreated group. The difference of serum IL-10 level between the normal control group and the untreated group showed no significance (P>0.05), and the levels of IFN-gamma and IL-4 of the untreated group were higher than those of the normal control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). There was no statistical difference in IL-10 level between the treatment group and the untreated group (P>0.05), while the serum levels of IL-4 and IFN-gamma of the treatment group were lower than those of the untreated group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). There was no significant difference of the Th1 cell responder between the treatment group and the untreated group (P>0.05), while the Th2 cell responder was inhibited significantly in the treatment group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Qingxin-II Recipe can restore the balance of Thl and Th2 cells through inhibiting the reaction of Th2.
