Objective To study the protective effects of DADLE on pulmonary function in rats with sepsis and the mechanism.Methods Seventy-two SD rats were randomly divided into sham operated group(SO),septic group(SEP),and DADLEtreated group (DADLE).Sepsis model was induced by cecal ligation and puncture(CLP).In SO group,the abdomen was opened without any other treatment.In DADLE-treated group,DADLE(0.5 mg/ml) was administerd at a dose of 5 ml/kg by intravenous injection after CLP.Rats were sacrificed at the 2nd,6th and 10th h after CLP.Arterial blood was collected for blood gas analysis.The wet-to-dry lung weight ratio was measured,and the levels of TNF-a and IL-6 in blood were detected.The levels of MPO,MDA and ATP in lung tissue were determined.The pathologic changes of the lungs were examined under a light microscope.Results As compared with SEP group,PaCO_2,and PaO_2 were significantly increased(P<0.05),while the wet-to-dry ratio and levels of serum TNF-a and IL-6 were significantly reduced(P<0.05),and levels of MPO and MDA were significantly reduced(P<0.05) and content of ATP in lung tissue was significantly increased (P<0.05)in DADLE group.More severe pathological changes were found in SEP group than in DADLE group.Conclusion DADLE has pulmonary protective effects in rats with sepsis.

Objective To investigate the effect of hospice comprehensive nursing intervention on pain, anxiety and quality of life of patients with advanced liver cancer. Methods All 60 patients with advanced liver cancer were randomly divided into observation group(n=30) and control group(n=30). The patients in the observation group received hospice comprehensive nursing intervention and the patients in the control group received general nursing care. Pain degree,anxiety value and quality of life were observed 2 weeks after admission. Results Observation group had lighter pain degree,lower anxiety value and better quality of life than control group(P<0.05). Conclusion Comprehensive nursing in tervention could efficiently alleviate pain, anxiety and improve quality of life for patients with advanced liver cancer.

Objective To explore the effect of comprehensive nursing intervention on patients with hepatic metastasis from colorectal cancer treated with transhepatic arterial chemoemholization (TACE). Methods Sixty-eight patients diag-nosed as hepatic metastasis from colorectal cancer by biopsy were involved in this study. Patients were randomly divid-ed into observation group (n=34) and control group (n=34). All patients underwent TACE. Patients in the observation group received comprehensive nursing intervention and the patients in the control group received routine nursing care. Perioperative anxiety state and health status were observed. Results Observation group had significantly lower HAMD and HAMA scores(P<0.05) and better life quality (P<0.05) than control group. Conclusion Comprehensive nursing in-tervention is necessary for patients with hepatic metastasis from colorectal cancer treated with TACE.

Objective To explore the effect of prophylactic hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) on survival after curative resection in patients with primary pancreatic cancer. Methods A total of 106 patients with pancreatic cancer after pancreatectomy received 2 cycles of HAIC plus 4 cycles of systemic chemotherapy (HAIC) or 6 cycles of sys-temic chemotherapy alone (Control). Both the HAIC and systemic chemotherapy regimen consisted of 5-fluorouracil 1000 mg/m2 on day 1 and Gemcitabine 800 mg/m2 on day 1 and 8. The treatment was started on an average of 3 weeks after surgery and repeated every 4 weeks. The disease-free survival , overall survival and liver metastases-free survival were compared. Results Significant differences were found in 3-year overall survival (HAIC, 23.08 %; Control, 14.81%;P=0.0473) and liver metastases-free survival (HAIC, 80.77%;Control, 55.56%;P=0.0014). There was no significant difference in adverse effects between two groups. Conclusion HAIC effectively and safely prevented liver metastases and improved the prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer after pancreatectomy.

Objective To study the protective effect of δ opioid receptor agonist DADLE(D-Ala2-D-Leu5-enkephalin)on mitochondrial respiratory function in a rat model of sepsis. Methods Sixty SD rats were randomly divided in to sham operated group (SO), septic group (SEP), and DADLE group (DADLE), each of 20 cases. Sepsis model was produced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). In SO group,the abdomen was opened without any other treatment. In DADLE group, DADLE (0.5 mg/mL) was administer at a dose of 5 mL/kg by intra-peritoneal injection after CLP. All rats were sacrificed 8 hours after CLP. ALT and AST in blood were determined. Mitochondrial respiratory function was evaluated by the clark oxygen eletrode. The levels of ATP, ADP, AMP were determined by high performance liquid chromatogra phy (HPLC). Results RCR and ADP/O in DADLE group were much higher than that in SEP group (P<0.05). ATP in DADLE groups were much higher than SEP group (P<0.05), while ALT and AST of DADLE group were significantly lower than SEP group (P<0.05). Conclusion DADLE can protect mitochondrial respiratory function and improve the hepatocellular energy metabolism in sepsis.

To find a new preventive strategy for the infection of Schistosoma japonica, plasmid pIRES-Sj97-Sj14-Sj26 that contains fatty binding protein (Sj14), GST (Sj26) and paramyocin (Sj97) that are expressed on the membrane, was constructed. RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of Sj14 mRNA, Sj26 mRNA and Sj97 mRNA in the Hela cells, the indirect immunofluorescent test was employed for the detection of the expression of trans-membrane Sj26 after the plasmid was trans-fected into Hela cells. Fifty BALB/c mice were randomly divided into 5 groups and pIRES-Sj97-Sj14-Sj26 plasmid DNA, pIRES-Sj14-Sj26 plasmid DNA, plRES-Sj26 plasmid DNA,plRES blank vector and normal saline were respectively injected into the quadriceps muscles of thigh.Eight weeks after the immunization the mice were killed and significantly higher level of IgG was detected in the pIRES-Sj97-Sj14-Sj26 group as compared with the plRES blank vector, normal saline and pIRES-Sj26 groups (P<0.01) and the pIRES-Sj14-Sj26(P<0.05). Single splenocyte suspension was prepared to detected the level of IFN-γ by ELISA and the lymphocyte stimulating index (SI) by MTT SI was significantly higher of in the pIRES-Sj97-Sj14-Sj26 group than in other groups (P<0.01), while the IFN-γ, level was significantly higher the pIRES-Sj97-Sj14-Sj26 group than in pIRES blank vector and normal saline groups (P<0.01), but no significant differences were found when compared with pIRES-Sj14-Sj26 and pIRES-Sj26 groups. Flow cytometery showed that the percent-ages of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were much higher in the pIRES-Sj97-Sj14-Sj26 group (P<0.01,P<0.05). It was concluded that pIRES-Sj97-Sj14-Sj26 vaccine may induce stronger immune response in BALB/c mice.

Objective To evaluate the effects of preoperative regional intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy for patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC). Methods A total of 82 patients with clinical stage Ⅲ,Ⅳ gastric cancer received two cycles of neoadjuvant regional intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy (arterial infusion group, n=42) or neoadjuvant systemic chemotherapy (systemic chemotherapy group, n=40). The operation was administrated in 10 to 15 days before chemotherapy. All patients received 6 course of systemic chemotherapy after surgery. Chemotherapy toxicity and sur-vival rate were retrospectively analyzed. Results No significant difference was found in chemotherapy toxicity between two groups. The median survival period was 25.3 months in arterial infusion group and 19.1 months in systemic chemotherapy group. 3-year survival rate was 36.4% in arterial infusion group and 21.0% in systemic chemotherapy group respectively, there were significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion Preoperative regional intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy is well tolerated in advanced gastric cancer patients and could improve short-term survival.
