Objective To investigate the inhibitory effects of hepatitis B virus (HBV) S gene-specific antisense locked nucleic acid (LNA) on HBV replication and expression in HepG_22.2.15 cells,and to screen the effective short sequence of LNA.Methods Four different lengths of short sequence of antisense locked nucleic acid which were complementary to the initiator of HBV S gene were designed,synthesized and transfected by cationic liposomes into HepG_22.2.15 cells.The HBsAg and HBV DNA of supematant was tested by enzyme linked immunoadsorbent assay(ELISA) and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR(FQ-PCR) at 24,48 and 72 hours after treatment.LNA's cyto-toxicity on cell was evaluated by MTT method.Results Four different lengths of short sequence of LNA inhibi-ted the expression of HBsAg and the replication of HBV DNA with the inhibition rates of 46.58%,54.38%,72.43% ,69.92% and 27.09% ,28.77% ,34.71% ,32.68% respectively after 72 hours.There's no obvious tox-icity on cell.Conclusion Antisense LNA that targeting at HBV S gene has strong inhibition on HBV in vitro,and the optimal length of LNA sequence might be in the range of 15 base to 25 base.It has a therapeutic potential in the treatment of patients infected with HBV.

Objective:To investigate the influence of combined application of histone deacetylase inhibitor(HDACi)MS-275 and 5-FU on the apoptosis and cycle arrest on human hepatoma cell line HepG2 and unclose the related mechanism.Methods:Divided all the cells into 4 groups:control group,MS-275 group,5-FU group and drug combination group.Flow cytometry(FCM)was used to examine the effects of 5-FU with MS-275 on the apoptosis and cell cycle of HepG2 cells.Bcl-2,Bax,CyclinD1 and P21 protein were determined by Western blot assay.Results:5-FU and MS-275 combination could inhibit HepG2 cell growth through G0-G1 arrest,and induce apoptosis,both time and dose dependently.The combination of two agents increased P21 protein levels and decreased Bcl-2,CyclinD1 protein levels.The levels of Bax protein were not changed.Conclusion:The combination of 5-FU and MS-275 can induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest,the effect might be associated with down-regulating expression of Cyclin D1 and Bcl-2 protein and upregulating the expression of P21 protein.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) for osteoporotic compression fracture of the upper thoracic spine.Methods The study enrolled 20 patients with osteoporotic compression fracture in 25 upper thoracic segments.The subjects (5 males and 15 females) aged at (71.0 ± 10.8) years (range, 57-89 years).Fracture occurred in 2 T1, 3 T2,5 T3 and 15 T4 segments.The subjects were submitted to puncture process via unilateral extrapedicular approach.Operation time, volume of infused bone cement, X-ray images and CT scan were recorded after operation.Visual analogue score (VAS), mobility score and Oswestry disability index (ODI) were assessed after operation.Results The procedure was successfully accomplished in all patients.Mean operation time was (39.7 ± 10.6)min.Infusion volume of bone cement was 2.0-6.0 ml [(3.3 ± 1.5)ml].Eighteen patients were available to the follow-up of 5.5-18 months [(7.6 ± 2.7) months].Three patients (15％) were associated with cement leakage into the epidural (n =1), paravertebral soft tissues (n =1) and disc (n =1) but remained asymptomatic.One patient (5％) had new fracture at the non-adjacent and non-operative segments within 15 days, and had no recurrence after PVP.No other serious complications such as rib fracture, pneumothorax, pulmonary embolism, vascular injury, spinal injury and infection were found.VAS, mobility score and ODI improved at 3 d, 1 month, 3 months and final follow-up compared to those at 1 d pre-operation (P ＜0.O1).Conclusions PVP is a safe and effective treatment for upper thoracic osteoporotic compression fracture, which is associated with few complications,reduced pain and improved mobility as well as quality of life.Rational surgical position and puncture approach are beneficial to a successful surgery.

AMOS-PCR and MLVA were carried out to identify the Brucella strains isolated in Fujian province, which were classified as B. melitensis biovar 2 or 3 by conventional microbiological tests. All these 3 isolates were identified to be B. melitensis by AMOS-PCR. The genetic patterns obtained by MLVA were queried in the Brucella 2007 database and clustered with B. melitensis strains. It is evident that these two molecular assays may be used as the assistant tools in the identification of Brucella strains.

Objective To study the brain functional activation under speech stimulation in presbycusis pa‐tients using blood oxygenation level dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD - fMRI) .Methods Eighteen normal hearing young volunteers ,10 normal hearing elderly people and 10 presbycusis patients received fM ‐RI under auditory task .Experimental tasks included monosyllabic verbal stimulating at tone of 1 kHz and sound in‐tensity to 90 dB ± 3 dB(after ambient noise detector Smart Sensor AR844 measurement and calibration) randomly transmitted to left and right ear .Following block design ,each stimulus was repeated twice .The lateralization of brain activation analysis observed changes in hemispheric dominance cases (or ear advantage change) .We observed brain activation analysis and changes of hemispheric lateralization advantage (or ear advantages) .SPM5 software was used to deal with the original pictures in the off - line work station to get fictional maps ,volume and intensity of the acti‐vated brain regions of interest ,and calculate the laterality index (LI) .Results To young people ,regardless of left or right ear stimulation ,the contralateral (region of intrest ,ROI) activation volume and intensity significantly increased compared to ipsilateral ,appearing contralateral hemispheric dominance ,and laterality index were - 0 .58 (left ear stimulation) and 0 .37 (right ear stimulation) .Compared to young people ,elderly people with normal hearing and presbycusis contralateral hemisphere conduction advantage was significantly reduced under monaural stimulation ,and the laterality indexes were - 0 .24 ,0 .28 (the aged group) ,- 0 .18 ,0 .25 (presbycusis group) .Young people received the left and the right ear auditory task respectively ,and the ratio of the total volume of bilateral ROI activation was 1 :2 .06 ,appearing to the right ear advantage (left brain dominance) .While the aged and presbycusis group manifes‐ted as right ear advantage decreased (left ear advantage enhanced) ,whose the total volume ratio was 1 :1 .51 for the old normal subjects and 1 :1 .61 for the hearing impaired seniors .Conclusion Auditory verbal tasks activated brain regions in the superior temporal gyrus and middle temporal gyrus were most obvious .Aging may cause these brain regions to be activated weaker ,appearing to the trend of contralateral hemisphere .The aging and deafness lead to the cortical reorganization .This may be one of the reasons for the declined speech recognition .

Objective To study the changes of diamine oxidase (DAO )and intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP)levels in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy treated with selective brain hypothermia.Methods Collect a sample of 60newborns with moderate and severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy who were hospitalized in the NICU of Matemal and Child Health Care Hospital of Baoding from June 2013to December 2014.The 60newborns were divided into two groups randomly:hypothermia group(n=30)and conventional treatment group(n=30).Selected 30cases hospitalized at the same period, except the related to the ischemia hypoxia and gastrointestinal dysfunction disease as the control group.The levels of serum levels of DAO and I-FABP were measured by ELISA on admission and 7days after treat-ment,respectively.And the score of gastrointestinal dysfunction were compared.Results Neither the levels of DAO and I-FABP in hypothermia group and conventional treatment group had statistical differences on ad-mission[DAO:(15.77±2.04)U/ml,(15.81±1.85)U/ml,P﹥0.05;I-FABP:(310.01±46.43)ng/L, (301.12±38.61)ng/L,P﹥0.05],but were higher than that in the control group [(7.65±0.74)U/ml, (51.65±6.91)ng/L].Seven days after treatment,both the levels of DAO and I-FABP of hypothermia group and conventional treatment group decreased [DAO:(7.88±1.87)U/ml,(12.51±1.53)U/ml;I-FABP:(59.16±6.17)ng/L,(121.31±21.54)ng/L],meanwhile,the variation of hypothermia group was more significant(P﹤0.05).The correlation of the plasma DAO and I-FABP levels and the score of gas-trointestinal dysfunction was significantly (r1=0.831,r2=0.827,P ﹤0.01).Conclusion Hypothermia treatment could effectively reduce the levels of DAO and I-FABP,thus improve the gastrointestinal function in some extent.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of intraoperative hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion (CHPP) on advanced gastric carcinoma. Methods: Sixty patients with advanced gastric carcinoma were divided into the control group and the treatment group. All patients underwent radical gastrectomy and D2 node dissection. Patients in the treatment group received CHPP when surgical resection was completed. Patients in the control group underwent resection of gastric carcinoma without CHPP. Chemotherapy was administered with FOLFOX4 regimen intravenously for 12 cycles in both groups at 4 weeks after surgery. The serum Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and CA19-9 were measured in patients with advanced gastric cancer before and after resection of tumor. Survival and recurrence in both groups were analyzed and compared. Results: The mean levels of the expression of CEA and CA19-9 in the peripheral blood of the 60 patients were significantly higher than the upper limits of normal (55.89±22.25μg/L vs 0～5μg/L; 125.35±61.78 U/mL vs 0～39U/mL P< 0.01). There were no significant differences in the mean levels of the expression of CEA and CA19-9 in the peripheral blood between the treatment group and the control group (54.67±22.95μg/L vs 56.09±22.15μg/L; 126.16±62.45 U/mL vs 123.35±60.88 U/mL,P>0.05). The serum CEA and CA19-9 levels were significantly decreased at 7 days after treatment in the treatment group (7.58±3.21 μg/L, 31.35±13.47 U/mL, P<0.01). The levels of these two tumor markers were decreased unremarkably at 7 days after treatment in the control group (37. 68±20.59μg/L, 98.23±36.28 U/mL, P>0.05). The serum CEA and CA19-9 levels were decreased significantly in both groups at 30 days after surgery (P<0.05). One-year survival and recurrence rates were 83.3% and 10% in the treatment group and 80% and 13.3% in the control group, with no significant differences between the two groups (P>0.05). Three-year survival and recurrence rates were 63.3% and 20% in the treatment group and 40% and 40% in the control group, with a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion: Surgical resection combined with CHPP can significantly decrease the serum CEA and CA19-9 levels. Intraoperative CHPP for patients with advanced gastric carcinoma is helpful for preventing peritoneal metastasis and recurrence and can prolong survival time.

Objective Aim to explore the effect of hyperglycemia on the expression of glucose transporter 1 (GLUT-1)in rats at the acute phase of traumatic brain injury.Methods Adult male SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: normal control group, traumatic brain injury group and insulin treated group.The blood glucose concentration of the rats was measured before and after injury.The expression of GLUT-1 gene and protein in the injured and uninjured cortex was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and western-blot.The apoptosis in the injured and uninjured cortex were detected by TUNEL staining.Results The blood glucose concentration increased markedly in traumatic brain injury group.The expression of GLUT-1 gene and protein in the injured cortex decreased in both the traumatic brain injury group and the insulin treated group.In contrast, the expression of GLUT-1 gene and protein significantly increased at 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h after injury in the insulin treated group compared with control(P＜0.01).The number of apoptotic cells in the insulin treated group were significantly larger than that in the traumatic brain injury group at each time point(P＜0.01).However, The number of apoptotic cell death remained unchange in the uninjured cortex in each group(P＞0.05).Conclusions The hyperglycemia after traumatic brain injury may increase the apoptotic cells in the injured brain through decreasing the expression of GLUT-1.

Objecfive To explore the value of endoscopic uhrasonography(EUS)in diagnosis and preoperative assessment of esophageal cancer.Methods A total of 57 patients with esophageal cancer were examined by EUS.The image features,depth of invasion and lymph node metastasis obtained by EUS were analyzed and compared with postoperative outcomes.Results Esophageal cancer was characterized as an irregular hypoeehoic mass with partial or total destruction of normal esophageal wall structure under EUS.Compared with post-operative pathological findings,the consistent rates of EUS diagnosis in depth of invasion,T staging,and N staging were 84.2%(48/57),87.7%(50/57)and 84.2%(48/57),respectively.Conclusion EUS exhibited high diagnostic accuracy in T staging of esophageal cancer,which is valuable in managements and prognosis of esophageal cancer.
