Background and purpose:Inlfammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are a group of chronic intestinal diseases, including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD). This study identified differentially expressed miRNAs in UC, CD and colitis-associated colorectal cancers (CAC) to explore their potential as novel molecular biomarkers. Methods:Tissue samples were taken from 13 UC patients, 3 CD patients, 12 CAC patients, and 8 age-and gender-matched healthy controls. The miRNA expressions were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTFQ-PCR) assay. Known targets of deregulated miRNAs were utilized using miRWalk 2.0 database, and subsequent bioinformatics analysis of these target genes was performed by DAVID software (GO-analysis, KEGG-analysis and BIOCARTA-analysis). Results:The data showed that miR-146a, miR-27a, miR-29a, miR-20a and miR-21 were upregulated in UC, CD and CAC tissues compared with normal control. Moreover, the target genes of these miRNAs were enriched in several key signal transduction pathways including cancer-related pathway and immu-nity-associated pathway. Conclusion:miR-146a, miR-27a, miR-29a, miR-20a and miR-21 may play important roles in the switching from IBD to CAC.

BACKGROUND: Using color Doppler ultrasonography, renal graft size, appearance, structure, and blood flow distribution can be observed. Through the use of blood flow display technique, blood flow perfusion of renal graft can be accurately observed to assist diagnosis and differential diagnosis of complications following renal transplantation. OBJECTIVE: To observe the hemodynamic characteristics during different periods of acute renal transplant rejection, summarize its specific manifestations through analyzing different reaction of two dimensional and color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) during renal transplantation in order to get valuable index on acute rejection of renal transplantation.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Comparative observation was performed at the Jinan University and First Hospital of Shenzhen University between January 2003 and January 2007.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 299 patients undergoing renal transplantation were divided into normal allograft group (n=236) and acute rejection group (n=63) according to renal allograft function.METHODS: The systolic peak flow rate, end-diastolic flow rate, mean flow rate, pulsatility index and resistance index of main renal artery and arcuate artery in patients of two groups were compared. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Renal allograft arterial inner diameter and hemodynamics of two groups.RESULTS: Compared with normal allograft group, the blood flow perfusion was reduced at acute rejection, which could not reach cortex margin, blood velocity was decreased at the diastolic phase, pulsatility index and resistance index were increased (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Color Doppler ultrasound, as a convenient, economical and noninvasive technique, provides the reliable evidences for the renal artery pulsatility index and resistance index in clinic, and also is valuable for the acute rejection early diagnosis of renal allograft.

Objective To investigate the seroepidemiology of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in adult men who have sex with men (MSM) in Chongqing area. Methods Nonprobability sampling method was used to test EB-CA-IgG, EB-NA-IgG and EB-VCA-IgM in the sera of 1082 MSMs from the clinical trials of HIV/AIDS treatments in Chongqing area from 2012 to 2015, and 1059 healthy individuals by means of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The results were analyzed by Chi-square test. The difference was considered statistically significant when P<0.05. Results The 1082 MSM included 130 HIV positive and 952 HIV negative subjects. The prevalence of prior EBV infection was 92.6% in total MSM population, 88.5% in HIV-positive MSM, and 93.2% in HIV-negative MSM. The prevalence in total MSM and HIV negative MSM was significantly higher than that in control group (89.9%). Prior EBV infection was not?found?in?0.5%?of?the?total?MSM,?0.8%?of?HIV?positive?MSM?and?0.4%?of?HIV?negative?MSM,?all?significantly?lower?than?that?of control group (5.0%) (P<0.05).?Finally,?the?rate?of?EBV?reactivation?in?HIV?positive?MSM?(10.0%)?was?significantly?higher?than?that in control group (3.8%) and in HIV negative MSM group(4.1%) (P<0.005). Conclusions EBV infection is highly prevalent in MSM, higher than that in the general population. The rate of EBV reactivation in HIV negative MSM is similar to that in general population. The rate of seroepidemiology-based EBV reactivation is significantly higher in HIV positive MSM, which may be associated with the immunocompromised status post HIV infection.

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc-dependent endopeptidases, which as a group can degrade essentially all extracellular matrix components. The proteolytic property of the MMPs is important during wound healing to remove debris and facilitate cell migration. Targeting towards the decreased MMPs activities is a new treatment strategy for healing chronic wounds. Salvia miltiorrhiza is a popular Chinese herb that could promote chronic ulcers healing for topical use. Salvianolic acid B (Sal B) is the most abundant bioactive component in Salvia miltiorrhiza. The research was designed to explore the inhibitory effects of Sal B on MMP-1, MMP-2 and MMP-9 activities.

Objective To investigate the effect of Shenmai injection on purine content in rat cerebral cortex in order to provide a theoretical basis concerning its brain protective mechanism. Methods Sixteen Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into two groups:normal saline control group and Shenmai injection group, with 8 rats in each group. Shenmai injection 15 mL/kg was injected intraperitoneally into the rats in Shenmai injection group, while in the normal saline group, an equal volume of normal saline was intraperitoneally injected. After the injection for 24 hours, the rats were sacrificed, and the cerebral cortex was removed on ice, homogenized and its supernatant was extracted;then high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to detect adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP), adenosine monophosphate (AMP), adenosine and inosine contents in the supernatant of cerebral cortex. Results Compared with normal saline control group, ATP, ADP, AMP, adenosine and creatinine content in the cerebral cortex of Shenmai injection group were significantly higher, the differences being statistically significant [ATP (ng/L): 31.62±5.12 vs. 20.25±4.53, ADP (ng/L): 37.04±6.72 vs. 25.12±7.35, AMP (ng/L): 87.82±20.37 vs. 33.23±10.34, adenosine (ng/L): 2.82±0.15 vs. 1.12±0.61, creatinine (ng/L): 11.72±1.05 vs. 6.05±2.55, P < 0.05 or P<0.01]. Conclusion Shenmai injection can elevate ATP, ADP, AMP, adenosine and creatinine contents in the cerebral cortex of rats, possibly that is the theoretical basis for brain protective mechanism of Shenmai injection.

ObjectiveTo investigate the diagnosis and treatment of adrenocorticotropin-independent macronodular adrenal hyperplasia (AIMAH). MethodsThe clinical data of 14 cases of AIMAH from August 1972 to July 2010 were retrospectively analyzed.The cases included 5 males and 9 females with a mean age of 45 (range 26 to 58 ) years.Ten patients demonstrated typical Cushing's syndrome (CS) and 4 patients presented with weight gain,hypertension or diabetes mellitus without any signs of CS.The circadian rhythm of serum cortisol was abnormal.Low and high dose dexamethasone suppression tests failed to suppress cortisol secretion.CT scan showed bilateral enlargement of the adrenal glands with multiple macronodules.All patients underwent open surgery,including 5 cases of unilateral adrenalectomy,6 cases of adrenalectomy combined with contralateral subtotal adrenalectomy and 3 cases of bilateral adrenalectomy.ResultsIt was established by pathological examination that all patients had bilateral adrenal macronodular or adenomatoid hyperplasia.During the mean follow-up of 69 months (range 12 to 120 months),the clinical symptoms of CS disappeared after surgery in all cases.The 5 patients who received unilateral adrenalectomy had urinary free cortisol and serum cortisol within normal ranges and no further enlargement of the contralateral gland was noticed.Among the 3 patients who received bilateral adrenalectomy,1 case died of adrenal crisis on day seven post-operation.The remaining 2 cases presented with adrenal insufficiency but returned to normal after glucocorticoid replacement therapy.Nelson's syndrome was not observed in the other patients.ConclusionsAIMAH has unique endocrinological and pathological features,presenting as an independent etiology of CS.Unilateral adrenalectomy appears to be an effective and safe alternative treatment for AIMAH and long-term remission can be achieved.Bilateral adrenalectomy or unilateral adrenalectomy combined with contralateral subtotal adrenalectomy may be performed if the symptoms have not improved or recurred after unilateral adrenalectomy.
