Numerous studies showed that changes in serum pepsinogen( PG)and gastrin-17( G-17)levels can reflect histological condition of gastric mucosa,that can be served as serological biopsy of gastric fundic glandular mucosa. The decrease of serum PGⅠ level and PGⅠ/ PGⅡ ratio(PGR)as well as increase of G-17 denotes a high risk of gastric cancer. Helicobacter pylori(Hp)infection can cause chronic active gastritis,and the progress of inflammation can lead to atrophy and intestinal metaplasia of mucosa. This article reviewed the diagnostic value of serum PG,G-17 and Hp antibody for atrophic gastritis and gastric cancer.

Objective To use the enzyme linked immunosorbent (ELISA)to detect the hepatitis B virus (HBV)markers,and to perform the HBsAg quantitation and the HBV load detection for understanding the HBV carrying and viral replication situation when single HBcAb positive or both HBcAb and HBeAb positive.Methods The HBV markers HBsAg,HBsAb,HBeAg,HBeAb and HBcAb were detected with ELISA.1 098 cases of HBcAb positive,966 cases of both HBeAb and HBcAb positive and 832 cases of all HBV markers negative as control were selected and quantitatively re-detected HBsAg by using the chemiluminescence meth-od.The HBV load was detected by using the PCR method.Results Among 1 098 cases of single HBcAb positive,436 cases (39.7%)of HBsAg quantitation and 230 cases (20.9%)of PCR-DNA were detected out respectively;among 966 cases of both HBeAb and HBcAb positive,387 cases(40.1 %)of HBsAg quantitation and 212 cases(21.9%)of PCR-DNA were detected out re-spectively;among 832 cases of all HBV markers negative,6 case (0.7%)of HBsAg quantitation and 4 case (0.5%)of PCR-DNA were detected out respectively,there were statistically significantly differences among them (P < 0.05 ).Conclusion Adopting ELISA for detecting HBV markers,when single HBeAb positive or both HBcAb and HBeAb positive,HBsAg and the viral replica-tion are still be detected out,which needs to conduct further detection in order to avoid the medical risk due to the missed detection.

Objective To compare the pharmacokinetics difference of methotrexate ( MTX) alone or MTX combined with the decoction of Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae ( RSM) in rats, and to investigate the possible impact of RSM on the efficacy and pharmacokinetics of MTX after oral administration. Methods Sprague-Dawley rats were given MTX (7 mg/kg) alone or MTX together with RSM (3.085 g/kg) respectively. At different time points, blood was sampled from orbital venous plexus and then was precipitated by perchloric acid. The serum concentration of MTX was determined by using high performance liquid chromatography ( HPLC) method. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a reversed-phase Diamonsil C18 (2) column with the mobile phase of methanol-formic acid water solution (formic acid in volume fraction of 0.1%) in gradient elution. The column temperature was 27 ℃, flow rate was 1 mL/min, detection wavelength was 302 nm, and the injection volume was 10 μL. The results were analyzed by pharmacokinetic software DAS ( 2.1.1) by non-compartment model. Results The linearity of the calibration curve for MTX was good in the range of 0.097 6 ~ 12.5 mg/L, the detection limit was 0.097 6 mg/L and the recovery was in the range of 77.5% ~ 86.6%. Compared with MTX group, the peak-arriving time of MTX-RSM group was advanced, and the clearance of MTX was delayed. Area under concentration-time curve at 0-t (AUC(0-t)) was increased by 0.609 times, and AUC(0-∞) was increased by 0.786 times. Conclusion The decoction of RSM exerts an effect on promoting the absorption of MTX, delaying the clearance of MTX and enhancing the bioavailability of MTX in vivo.

OBJECTIVE To clarify the long-term toxicity to the respiratory system in a rat model of acute lung injury (ALI) induced by a single low-dose of perfluoroisobutylene(PFIB) inhalation expo?sure,and observe the possible beneficial effect of early intervention via Qingkailing(QKL) injection. METHODS Totally 224 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:normal control group in which air exposure was followed by a saline 10 mL · kg-1(ip),QKL control group in which QKL 10 mL · kg-1 was ip given after air exposure,PFIB exposure group in which rats were exposed to PFIB 280 mg·m-3 for 5 min only,and QKL treatment group in which QKL 10 mL·kg-1 was given ip at 1 h after PFIB exposure. Lung functions of rats were measured at 24 h,3,6,12,24,36 and 48 weeks after exposure. The arterial blood gas,lung coefficient,protein content in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF),hydroxy?proline(HYP) content in lung tissue and plasma,and other indicators were detected or analyzed. RESULTS Within 24 h after PFIB exposure,the lung coefficient and protein content in BALF were increased significantly(P<0.01),whereas the PaO2(P<0.01) and SaO2(P<0.05) indices in arterial blood decreased significantly in PFIB group compared with normal control. The inhalation time , exhalation time,tidal volume(TV),expired volume(EV)and relaxed time were reduced significantly (P<0.01). However,all the above indicators returned to normal in 3 weeks,but TV,EV and peak expiratory flow were significantly lower than in normal group at 48 weeks(P<0.05). HYP contents in lung tissues,compared with normal control(P<0.05),were reduced significantly within 24 h after PFIB exposure,increased significantly in 6 weeks(P<0.05),then returned to normal in 12 weeks. HYP contents in plasma increased significantly compared with normal control(P<0.05) within 24 h after PFIB exposure but returned to normal in 3 weeks. The protein contents in BALF of QKL treatment group were significantly lower than those in PFIB group(P<0.01) within 24 h after PFIB exposure. From 24 h to 24 weeks after PFIB exposure,changes of pulmonary functions were similar to those in PFIB group. At 48 weeks,TV and EV in QKL treatment group were more significantly increased than those in PFIB group(P<0.05). CONCLUSION Rats with ALI induced by a single low dose of PFIB exposure undergo compensatory repair except for pulmonary capacity and pulmonary ventilation functions. Early treatment with QKL reduces protein content of BALF and alleviates pulmonary edema,and has some beneficial effect on lung function recovery later.

Background: Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is a precancerous lesion of gastric cancer.The diagnostic value of serum gastrin-17 (G-17) level for CAG differs substantioulsy, and Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection may play an important role.Aims: To explore the effect of Hp infection on serum G-17 level, and the diagnostic value of serum G-17 level for CAG under different Hp infection status.Methods: A total of 204 patients with chronic non-atrophic gastritis and 81 patients with CAG from May 2014 to May 2015 at the three different hospitals were enrolled.Gastroscopy was performed, fasting serum G-17 level, postprandial serum G-17 level and Hp-IgG antibody were determined by ELISA.Results: Fasting serum G-17 level was significantly increased in Hp positive group than in Hp negative group (P=0.001), and postprandial serum G-17 level was significantly decreased in CAG group than in non-atrophy group (P=0.002).AUC of fasting serum G-17 level for diagnosing Hp positive and negative CAG were 0.634 (95% CI: 0.537-0.732) and 0.576 (95% CI: 0.478-0.675), respectively, the accuracy were 62.6% and 54.9%, respectively.AUC of postprandial serum G-17 level for diagnosing Hp positive and negative CAG were 0.675 (95% CI: 0.581-0.769) and 0.595 (95% CI: 0.495-0.694), respectively, the accuracy were 61.8% and 53.1%, respectively.Conclusions: Hp infection has impact on serum G-17 level, as a result, the diagnostic value of G-17 level for CAG is different for patients with and without Hp infection.Diagnostic values of fast and postprandial serum G-17 for Hp positive CAG are higher than Hp negative CAG.

Objective To investigate the application value of the ultrasonic elastic tissue dispersion quantitative analysis technique in different stages of subacute thyroiditis (SAT).Methods One hundred and forty-four SAT lesions detected from 81 patients were enrolled in the patient group.They were further divided into three subgroups,including acute group (group Ⅰ),medium group (group Ⅱ) and recovery group (group Ⅲ).Another 59 healthy volunteers were collected as control group.All the participants accepted conventional ultrasound and elastographic examinations.Eleven parameters were obtained by the tissue dispersion quantitative analysis software.These parameters were compared between groups and among subgroups by ANOVA.The correlation between all the parameters and the course of SAT were analyzed by Spearman and Multiple linear regression methods.Results Between groups and among subgroups,the complexity (COMP) and correlation (CORR) were not statistically different(all P ＞0.05).Differences of kurtosis (KURT) and angular secon moment (ASM) among the three subgroups were not significant (all P ＞0.05).Differences between groups and among subgroups were significantly different among the value of all the other seven indexes (all P ＜0.01).Moreover,they were all correlated with the clinical staging,with the highest coefficient in area ration of low-strain region (％ AREA)(r =-0.881).Regression model was constructed and only ％ AREA was selected into the regression equation.ROC curves were constructed to estimate the clinic value of ％ AREA in staging patients of SAT,the areas under ROC curves were0.986(group Ⅰ vs group Ⅱ-Ⅲ) and 0.988 (group Ⅰ-Ⅱ vs group Ⅲ[) for ％AREA,respectively.Conclusions The tissue dispersion quantitative analysis technique is helpful in estimating the stiffness of thyroid in patients with SAT.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM: To investigate the influence of advanced glycosylation end products-modified bovine serum albumin (AGE-BSA) on mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), urokinase-type plasminogen activator re-ceptor ( uPAR) , and cell mobility in the podocytes, and to further explore the probable relationship.METHODS: The conditionally immortalized mouse podocyte cell line was cultured in vitro.MTT assay and immunofluorescence were used to analyze the cell viability and cytoskeleton of the podocytes treated with the stimuli and intervention agents.The activity of mTORC1 and the expression level of uPAR in normal podocytes and podocytes treated with control BSA or AGE-BSA were detected by Western blotting.The migration ability of the podocytes was determined by would-healing assay.Rapamycin was added to inhibit the activity of mTORC1 along with the addition of AGE-BSA to observe the changes of uPAR and the motility of podocytes.RESULTS:No significant difference of the cell viability or cytoskeleton in the podocytes treated with the stimuli and intervention agents was observed.AGE-BSA up-regulated the activity of mTORC1 and the expression of uPAR, and induced the high mobility of the podocytes.Rapamycin obviously reduced the high expression level of uPAR and the increase in the migration ability of podocytes caused by AGE-BSA treatment.CONCLUSION: AGE-BSA might cause the high migration of podocytes through the mTORC1/uPAR signaling pathway.
