AIM: To investigate the effect of LY980503(a benflumetol derivative)on multidrug resistance of tumor cell line using DNA microarray. METHODS: Total RNA was extracted from multidrug resistant MCF/DOX cell line. cDNA microarray containing 320 cDNAs was used to detect the gene expression profile. RESULTS: 9 down-regulated genes and 1 up-regulated gene were identified after multidrug resistant MCF/DOX cells were treated with LY980503. CONCLUSION: LY980503 can effectively reverse the resistance of MCF/DOX to DOX in vitro by adjusting the expression of multi-genes.

Objective To study the correlation between the coagulation factor Ⅶ (F Ⅶ) and progressive hemorrhage after brain contusion in mice and provide the experimental evidence for the clinical application of recombinant human FⅦa.Methods Twelve male BALB/c mice were given liposomeencapsulated FⅦsiRNA via tail vein at doses of 1,3,5 and 10 mg/kg with 3 mice per dosage.The other 3 mice received equivalent volume of normal saline as controls.Two days after the injection,mice blood sampling was used to detect FⅦ mRNA expression in liver using real-time PCR,level of plasma FⅦ using ELISA method,and activity of plasma FⅦ using chromogenic substrate assay.The optimal dose at which F Ⅶ expression was inhibited was determined.Thirty BALB/c male mice were assigned to two groups (n =15 per group) according to the random number table:FⅦ-suppressing group,mice were injected with FⅦsiRNA at the optimal dose and control group,mice were injected with same volume of negative control vector.The model of brain contusion was established in both groups.Volume of hemorrhage following brain contusion was measured at 3,24 and 72 h postinjury,and hematoma volume at 24 and 48 h postinjury.Results Liposome-encapsulated siRNA delivery down-regulated FⅦ expression in the mouse liver.Level and activity of plasma FⅦ were also reduced significantly.The optimal siRNA dose was 3 mg/kg.At 3,24 and 72 h postinjury,relative volume of brain hemorrhage in FⅦ-suppressing group was 1.46 ± 0.10,1.82 ± 0.23 and 2.28 ± 0.15 respectively,significantly higher than that in control group (1.00 ± 0.25,1.20 ± 0.31 and 1.20 ± 0.22 respectively) (P ＜ 0.05).At 24 and 48 h postinju-ry,volume of hematoma in FⅦ-suppressing group was (6.7 ± 1.5)mm3 and (9.8 ± 1.0) mm3,significantly higher than that in control group [(5.2 ± 1.2) mm3 and (5.5 ± 1.5) mm3] (P ＜0.01).Conclusions Level of FⅦ in vivo relates closely to the progressive hemorrhage of brain contusion in mice.Administration of FⅦ is effective to reduce the incidence of progressive hemorrhage.

We studied the effect of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis prokaryotic ubiquitin-like protein-proteasome system on mono-resistant to rifampin resistance to M.tuberculosis.A resazurin-based assay was employed to evaluate minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and comparative research on mono-resistant to rifampin MTB with Pup,Dop,PafA,Mpa genes expression and deletion of the difference.Above testing strains,respectively,carbonyl cyanide chlorobenzene hydrazone (CCCP),reserpine (RP),verapamil (VP)and chlorpromazine (CPZ) were tested.We compared and analyzed the change of rifampicin MICs on the various strains.Compared with rifampin resistant MTB,overexpression of Pup,Dop,PafA and Mpa genes were able to make monorifampicin of M.tuberculosis to enhance resistance to rifampin.Deletion of Pup gene,Mpa gene,Dop gene,PafA gene significantly decreased the resistance to rifampicin alone MTB,and the P value was ＜0.05.Results indicated that 4 kinds of efflux pump inhibitors can reduce the degree of rifampin MIC in different strains.Through the factorial analysis,there were some interactions between MTB and PPS efflux pump inhibitors,and the P value was ＜0.05.MTB PPS has influence on mono-rifampin resistance to MTB and it may regulate the efflux pathway related protein to influence its resistance.

Objective:To study the curative effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with internal fixation with hollow screws on femoral neck fractures.Methods:The clinical data of 160 patients with femoral neck fracture were retrospectively analyzed who had been treated by internal fixation with hollow screws at Orthopedic Department Ⅲ, The Second Affiliated Hospital to Luohe Medical College from May 2012 to May 2018. According to whether PRP was used or not to assist their internal fixation, they were divided into a PRP group ( n=80) and a control group ( n=80). In the PRP group, there were 46 males and 34 females with an age of 52.3 years±7.6 years, and one case of type Ⅰ, 5 cases of type Ⅱ, 57 cases of type Ⅲ and 17 cases of type Ⅳ by the Garden classification. In the control group, there were 41 males and 39 females with an age of 50.6 years ± 7.3 years, and 2 cases of type Ⅰ, 7 cases of type Ⅱ, 51 cases of type Ⅲ and 20 cases of type Ⅳ by the Garden classification. The 2 groups were compared in terms of fracture healing time, nonunion, femoral head necrosis and Harris hip scores. Results:The 2 groups were comparable because their preoperative general data showed no significant differences ( P>0.05). The 160 patients obtained follow-up for 12 to 36 months. The PRP group showed significantly shorter fracture healing time (4.3 months ± 1.0 months), significantly lower incidences of nonunion [0% (0/80)] and avascular necrosis of femoral head [3.8% (3/80)] than the control group [7.3 months ± 1.3 months, 7.5% (6/80) and 15.0% (12/80), respectively] (all P< 0.05). The Harris scores at 6 and 12 months after operation for the PRP group (88.7±5.3 and 94.2±4.8) were significantly higher than those for the control group (81.4±4.6 and 84.2±5.2) (both P<0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of femoral neck fractures, compared with internal fixation with hollow screws alone, platelet rich plasma combined with internal fixation with hollow screws can significantly shorten fracture healing time, reduce incidence of avascular necrosis of the femoral head and improve functional recovery of the hip joint.

Cytochrome P450 (CYP46A1) is a central neuro-specific metabolic enzyme that converts cholesterol into 24-hydroxycholesterol. This metabolic process is the main mechanism of cholesterol elimination in brain and is closely related to the occurrence and development of neurodegenerative diseases. This review focuses on the relationship between CYP46A1 and neurodegenerative diseases, from the aspects of regulatory mechanism of CYP46A1 enzyme, the relationship between CYP46A1 and cognitive dysfunction, epileptic encephalopathy, and CYP46A1 enzyme activity modifiers (inhibitors and agonists) to illustrate the pivotal role of CYP46A1 in the development and prevention of neurodegenerative diseases in hope of providing new target and direction for the research and development of new drugs.

Objective:To investigate the safety of minimally invasive liver resection for resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) complicated with portal hypertension.Methods:The propensity score matching and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 807 patients with resectable HCC who underwent minimally invasive liver resection in 8 medical centers, including Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Affiliated with the Zhejiang University School of Medicine et al, from June 2011 to November 2022 were collected. There were 670 males and 137 females, aged 58(50,66)years. Of the 807 patients, 173 cases with portal hypertension were divided into the portal hypertension group, and 634 cases without portal hypertension were divided into the non-portal hypertension group. Observation indicators: (1) propensity score matching and comparison of general data of patients between the two groups after matching; (2) intraoperative and post-operative situations; (3) subgroup analysis. Propensity score matching was done by the 1:1 nearest neighbor matching method, with the caliper setting as 0.001. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the rank sum test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was constructed using the non-parameter rank sun test. Results:(1) Propensity score matching and comparison of general data of patients between the two groups after matching. Of the 807 patients, 268 cases were successfully matched, including 134 cases in the portal hypertension group and 134 cases in the non-portal hypertension group. The elimination of the tumor diameter and robot-assisted surgery confounding bias ensured comparability between the two groups after propensity score matching. (2) Intraoperative and postoperative situations. The occlusion time of porta hepatis, cases with intraoperative blood transfusion, cases with postoperative complication, cases with complication >Ⅱ grade of Clavien-Dindo classification, cases of Clavien-Dindo classification as Ⅰ grade, Ⅱ grade, Ⅲ grade, Ⅳ grade, cases with liver related complication were 27.0(15.0,43.0)minutes, 33, 55, 15, 13, 29, 14, 1, 37 in the portal hypertension group, versus 35.0(22.0,60.0)minutes, 17, 25, 5, 14, 9, 4, 1, 13 in the non-portal hypertension group, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( Z=-2.15, χ2=6.30, 16.39, 4.38, 20.72, 14.16, P<0.05). (3) Subgroup analysis. Results of subgroups analysis showed that in cases with major live resection, the operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, duration of postoperative hospital stay were 243.5(174.6,296.3)minutes, 200.0(150.0,600.0)mL, 7.5(6.0,13.0)days in the portal hypertension group, versus 270.0(180.0,314.5)minutes, 200.0 (75.0,450.0)mL, 7.0(5.5,10.0)days in the non-portal hypertension group, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( Z=-0.54, -1.73, -0.92, P>0.05). In cases with non-major live resection, the operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, duration of postoperative hospital stay were 170.0(120.0,227.5)minutes, 100.0(50.0,200.0)mL, 8.0(5.0,10.0)days in the portal hypertension group, versus 170.0(120.0,227.5)minutes, 100.0(50.0,200.0)mL, 7.0(5.5,9.0)days in the non-portal hypertension group, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( Z=-1.39, -0.10, 1.05, P>0.05). In cases with anatomical liver resection, the operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, duration of postoperative hospital stay were 210.0(150.0,285.0)minutes, 150.0(50.0,200.0)mL, 8.0(6.0,9.3)days in the portal hypertension group, versus 225.5(146.3,306.8)minutes, 100.0(50.0,250.0)mL, 7.0(6.0,9.0)days in the non-portal hypertension group, showing no significant difference in the above indica-tors between the two groups ( Z=-0.75, -0.26, -0.91, P>0.05). In cases with non-anatomical liver resection, the operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, duration of postoperative hospital stay were 173.5(120.0,231.5)minutes, 175.0(50.0,300.0)mL, 7.0(5.0,11.0)days in the portal hyper-tension group, versus 186.0(123.0,262.5)minutes, 100.0(50.0,200.0)mL, 7.0(5.0,9.5)days in the non-portal hypertension group, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( Z=-0.97, -1.12, -0.98, P>0.05). Conclusion:Minimally invasive liver resection or even major liver resection is safe and feasible for screened HCC patients complicated with portal hyper-tension, but attention should be paid to the prevention and treatment of postoperative complications.

Objective:To investigate the influence of curative-intent resection with textbook outcomes of liver surgery (TOLS) on long-term prognosis of gallbladder carcinoma (GBC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 824 patients with GBC in the national multicenter database of Biliary Surgery Group of Elite Group of Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery, who were admitted to 15 medical centers from January 2014 to January 2021, were collected. There were 285 males and 539 females, aged (62±11)years. According to the evalua-tion criteria of TOLS, patients were divided into those who achieved TOLS and those who did not achieve TOLS. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and com-parison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data were conduc-ted using the Mann-Whitney U test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rate and draw survival curve, and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. The COX stepwise regression model with backward Wald method was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Results:(1) Achievement of TOLS. Of the 824 patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC, there were 510 cases achieving TOLS and 314 cases not achieving TOLS. (2) Follow-up. Of the 824 patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC, after excluding 112 deaths within 90 days after discharge, 712 cases were included for the survival analysis.
