1.Quantitative Analysis of E-Cadherin Expression and Clinicopathologic Evaluation in Lung Cancer
Journal of China Medical University 2001;30(1):46-47,50
Objective:Our aim was to evaluate the relationship of E-cadherin(EC) expression with the biological behavior of lung cancer.Methods:The EC expression and the cellular DNA ploidy were measured using flow cytometry and immunofluorescence methods in 39 cases of primary non-small cell lung cancer. Systemic pathological examination were performed for all cases.Results:The EC expression significantly reduced in all cases of lung cancer.Fluorescene index(FI) of EC expression was (0.90±0.10) in normal lung tissue, (0.49±0.09) in squamous cell lung cancer,(0.63±0.08) in adenocarcinoma.The expression of EC in squamous lung cancer greatly decreased in poor differentiation and with lymph node metastasis (P<0.01).In squamous cell lung cancer,the expression of EC was lower in uneuploid cancer than that in diploid cancer (P<0.05).The expression of E-Cadherin in squamous cell lung cancer reduced more in TNM Ⅲ than in TNM Ⅰ,Ⅱ.Conclusion:The expression of EC decreased in poor differentiation squamous cell lung cancer with lymph node metastasis. In lung adenoma, the decrease in the expression of EC has no relatoin with the TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, and DNA ploidy.

The present investigation was undertaken to evaluate the role of the Chinese fruit juice in blocking nitrosamine formation in vitro.A model system simulated the conditions (pH 3.3, 37℃) known, to exist in the stomach, was used in the experiments. Different amount of nitrite and aminopyrine was incubated with Chinese fruit juice or vitamin C solution or buffer solution for 1 hr. 0.1 ml samples were taken and then subjected to the Ames mutagenicity test. The tester strain TA100 of Salmonella typhi-murium was employed for the detection of mutagenicity due to the N-nitro-samine formed from sodium nitrite and aminopyrine. Test samples and bacteria with or without S-9 mixed with molten top agar and poured onto the minimal agar plates. After incubation, the sample, that gave at least a 2-fold increase in induced revertants, compared to spontaneous revertants, was considered to have mutagenic activity.It showed that the concentration of the precursors was at or above 5 mg/ ml with S-9 and without juice. the samples exhibited mutagenic activity. It suggested that the nitrosamine was formed in this system. While the incorporation of Chinese fruit juice was found to inhibit the formation of nitrosamine at 5mg/ml and 8mg/ml. The cultures did not show mutagenic activity. The induced revertant colonies per plate was 252 ? 4.2. The Chin esefruit juice is more effective than that of vitamin C, the induced revertant colonies per plate was 445 ? 81.2, which shows mutagenic. The difference between the cultures of Chinese fruit juice and vitamin C is significant (P

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of recombinant human epidermal growth factor(rhEGF) combined with lipoic acid in the treatment of diabetic foot. METHODS:A total of 68 patients with diabetic foot were randomly divid-ed into observation group and control group with 34 cases in each group. Both groups were given conventional therapy and Lipolic acid injection 0.6 ml added into Sodium chloride injection 250 ml. ivgtt(protecting form light),qd;observation group was additionally giv-en rhEGF for external use 1 ml and vaseline on the wounds,gauze dressing,qd. Treatment course of 2 groups lasted for 7 d. Clinical efficacy,ulcer area,the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax were compared between 2 groups as well as the occurrence of ADR. RESULTS:The total effective rate of observation group(94.1%)was significantly higher than that of control group(67.6%),with statistical sig-nificance (P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in ulcer area,the levels of Bcl-2 and Bax between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treatment,ulcer area decreased significantly, the level of Bcl-2 increased significantly in 2 groups,while the level of Bax decreased significantly;the improvement of observation group was more significant than that of control group,with statis-tical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLU-SIONS:rhEGF combined with lipoic acid is effective for diabetic foot with good safety.

Magnetic induction method aims at the noninvasive detection of liver iron overload by measuring the hepatic magnetic susceptibility. To solve the difficulty that eddy current effects interfere with the measurement of magnetic susceptibility, we proposed an improved coil system based on the static field magnetization principle in this study. We used a direct current excitation to eliminate the eddy current effect, and a rotary receiver coil to get the induced voltage. The magnetic field for a cylindrical object due to the magnetization effect was calculated and the relative change of maximum induced voltage was derived. The correlation between magnetic susceptibility of object and maximum magnetic flux, maximum induced voltage and relative change of maximum induced voltage of the receiver coil were obtained by simulation experiments, and the results were compared with those of the theory calculation. The contrast shows that the simulation results fit the theory results well, which proves our method can eliminate the eddy current effect effectively.

Objective To investigate the relevant factors for fungal infection following pancreatoduodenectomy and offer the theoretical foundation for preventing the emergence of complications after operation. Methods Medical records from 562 consecutive patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy in this hospital from 1995 to 2005 were retrospectively reviewed by using single factor and non-condition Logistic regression analyse. Results ①Seventy-eight patients (13.9%) developed invasive fungal infection. The most frequently isolated fungal were Candida albicans accounted for 67.0%, and followed by Candida glabrata, Candida papasilosis and Candida tropicalis and gastrointestinal tract was the most common infection site, followed by respiratory tract, abdominal cavity. ②Fungal infection occurred significantly more often in patients with the length of time in parenteral nutrition, antibiotic use or abdominal cavity complications. Conclusion The most common infection site and isolated fungal associated with pancreatoduodenectomy were gastrointestinal tract and Candida albicans. Abdominal cavity complications such as pancreatic fistula, biliary fistula and abdominal infection and extended use parenteral nutrition and antibiotic are the most important factors leading to invasive fungal infection after pancreatoduodenctomy. Eliminating the various risk factors will decrease the incidence of fungal infection.

Objective To investigate the expressions of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) and relationships of these expressions with the clinicopathology in breast cancer patients aged 70 years old and over. Methods The expressions of ER, PR and HER-2 were detected by immunohistochemical staining from 124 elderly breast cancer patients, and the relationships of these expressions with pathological classification, tumor size, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage were analyzed. Results Among 124 patients, the positive expression rate of ER and PR was 75.0% (93/124) and 71.0% (88/124),respectively. They were not associated with pathological classification, tumor size, lymph node metastasis or TNM stage (all P>0. 05). The positive expression rate of Her-2(+++) and Her-2 (++) was 11.3% (14/124) and 24.2% (30/124), respectively. And the expression of Her-2 was significantly associated with tumor size, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage (P<0. 05) but not with pathological classification (P>0. 05). Conclusions The positive expressions of ER and PR are not correlated with the clinicopathology in elderly breast cancer patients. Her-2 overexpression is positively associated with tumor size, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage.
