Objective To investigate the efficacy of ventral bladder mucosa onlay graft urethroplasty for the management of panurethral stricture.Methods From August of 2005 to July of 2013,11 cases of panurethral stricture were treated by ventral bladder mucosa onlay graft urethroplasty.The median age of the patients was 53 years (22-72 year),The median stricture length was 15 cm (12-18 cm).The patient was placed in the lithotomy position,Penile urethra was exposed by circumcoronal incision and degloving of skin,Bulbar urethra was exposed by inverted Y-shaped perineal incision.The strictured urethral segment was then opened ventrally in the midline up to at least 1 cm proximally into the healthy urethra.An appropriate size bladder mucosa graft was harvested,and was quilted to the splited urethra edge,the graft width was 1.5-2.0 cm.Two F10 fenestrated silicone catheters were left as urethral stents,a suprapupic cystostomy tube was left.The urethral stent was removed 4 weeks postoperatively.Follow-up was performed every 3 months for the first year,and annually thereafter.Success was defined as normal voiding with a maximum flow rates ≥ 15 ml/s,and the patients required no further instrumentation,including dilation or urethrotomy.Results The mean follow-up was 18 months (range,9-36 months),the overall success rate was 10/11.One patient developed urethral meatus stenosis 3 months postoperatively,and was managed by meatal dilatation.Conclusion Ventral bladder mucosa onlay graft urethroplasty can be used for the management of panurethral stricture,Bladder mucosa is an alternative substitution for complex urethral reconstruction.

Aim To investigate the effect of plumbagin on invasion and apoptosis of human hepatocellular car-cinoma ( HepG2 ) . Methods HepG2 cells were cul-tured in vitro with different concentrations of plumba-gin, then cell proliferation was observed by MTT as-say; cell invasion was observed by transwell invasion assay; cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry, and the protein expression of Bax, Bcl-2 was detected by immunocytochemistry. Results MTT results showed that plumbagin could significantly inhibit cell proliferation compared with the control group, and in a dose-dependent manner ( P <0. 05 ) . Transwell inva-sion assay showed that cell invasion was significantly decreased with increasing concentrations of plumbagin ( P < 0. 01 ) . Flow cytometry showed that apoptosis rate was significantly higher in 4 , 8 μmol · L-1 group of plumbagin compared with that of the control group ( P<0. 01 ) . Immunocytochemistry showed that, with the increasing concentration of plumbagin, Bax protein expression increased, Bcl-2 protein expression was de-creased, both in a dose-dependent manner ( P <0. 01 ) . Conclusion Plumbagin can inhibit HepG2 cell proliferation and accelerate apoptosis of HepG2 cells, but also has the ability to inhibit HepG2 cell in-vasion.

Objective To evaluate the role of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway in paclitaxel-induced apoptosis in hippocampal neurons of rats, and the relationship with nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway.Methods The primarily cultured hippocampal neurons were seeded in 96-well plate at a density of 1×106 cells/ml (200 μl/hole) , and were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=8 each) using a random number table: control group (C group), paclitaxel group (P group), JNK inhibitor SP600125 group (S group), and SP600125 + paclitaxel group (S+P group).Paclitaxel 2 ml (1 μmol/L) was added to group P.SP600125 2 ml (10 μmol/L) was added to group S.In group S+P, SP600125 2 ml (10 μmol/L) was added, the cell were then incubated for 1 h, and then paclitaxel 2 ml (1 μmol/L) was added.The cells were then incubated for 24 h.At 24 h of incubation, the apoptosis in hippocampal neurons was detected by flow cytometry, and the expression of NF-κB p65 was measured by Western blot.The apoptosis rate was calculated.Results Compared with group C, the apoptosis rate was significantly increased, and the expression of NF-κB p65 was up-regulated in P and S+P groups, and the apoptosis rate was significantly decreased, and the expression of NF-κB p65 was down-regulated in group S (P＜0.05).Compared with group P, the apoptosis rate was significantly decreased, and the expression of NF-κB p65 was down-regulated in group S+P (P＜0.05).Conclusion JNK signaling pathway mediates paclitaxel-induced apoptosis in hippocampal neurons of rats, and the mechanism is likely related to inhibition of NF-κB pathway activation.

Objective To observe the expressions of interferon gamma (IFN-γ) and IFN-γ-inducible protein 10 (IP-10) at different stages of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection,and to investigate the relationship between IP-10 with hepatic inflammation activity and hepatitis aggravation.Methods Fifteen chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients,15 asymptomatic HBV carriers (AsC) and 15 chronic severe hepatitis B (CSHB) patients were enrolled in the study from January 2010 to December 2011 in the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University.The liver samples were collected by percutaneous needle biopsy or from liver transplantation.The IFN-γ and IP-10 mRNA expressions were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR).Localization and hemi-quantitative analysis of IFN-γand IP-10 proteins were performed by immunohistochemistry staining.Concentrations of serum IFN-γ and IP-10 were quantified by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).HBV markers and liver function were also evaluated for each patient.Results Serum IFN-y and IP-10 concentrations increased significantly in CHB [(415.27±145.52) ng/L and (6.98± 1.12) ng/L,respectively] and CSHB [(658.33 ± 213.52) ng/L and (10.78 ± 1.19) ng/L,respectively] patients compared with AsC [(142.09 ± 47.64) ng/L and (2.4 7 ± 0.60) ng/L,respectively] patients,and were highest in CSHB patients (F=43.48,256.98 ;both P＜0.05).Meanwhile,intrahepatic IFN-γ and IP-10 mRNA and protein expressions paralleled with IFN-γ and IP-10 concentrations in the serum,which was highest in CSHB patients,followed by CHB and AsC patients (F＝693.85,210.21,433.05,214.46; all P＜0.05).Furthermore,Spearman linear correlation analysis showed that serum IP-10 level was positively correlated with both hepatic inflammation activity and serum IFN-γ concentration in CHB and CSHB patients (r =0.76 and r 0.77,respectively;both P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions IP-10,one important immunologic marker of regulating anti HBV activation,indicates progression from immune tolerance phase to immune clearance phase.Furthermore,it may affect the degree of inflammation and hepatitis aggravation.
