Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of autologous granular fat graft applied for penile lengthening and augmentation.Methods After all the superficial ligment and 1/3-2/ 3 part of the deep suspensory-ligament had been cut off for penile lengthening,local pedicaled fasciaadipose flap was designed to fill the depression,the pre-centrifuged autologous granular fat was injected into the space beneath Buck's fascia for penile augmentation.Normal length,pulling penis length,diameter,circumference and complications were evaluated.Results 34 cases were performed and followed up for 3-18 months,both ideal length and diameter increase of penis were achieved.The differences of nomal length,pulling-length,the diameter and circumference were (2.8±0.1) cm,(2.1±0.2) cm,(0.9 ± 0.1) cm,(2.8 ± 0.1) cm,respectively.The common complications included poor wound healing in 4 cases,preputial edema and subcutaneous scleroma in 8 cases for 3 months.Conclusions Autologous granular fat graft for penile augmentation during the lengthening surgery is a reliable and effective method and easy procedure.Detail processing can decrease the complications.

This study is to investigate the effects of paeoniflorin on cerebral blood flow and the balance of PGI2/TXA2 of rats with focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. A total of 72 SD rats (3) were randomly divided into 6 groups: sham operation group, cerebral ischemia-reperfusion model group (I/R gourp), low (10 mg.kg-1), middle (20 mg.kg-1) and high (40 mg.kg-1) doses of paeoniflorin groups and nimrnodipine group. Focal cerebral ischemia in rats was made by inserting a monofilament suture into internal carotid artery for 90 min and then reperfused for 24 h. The effects of paeoniflorin on neurological deficit scores and the infarction volume of brain were detected. Relative regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) was continuously monitored over ischemic hemispheres by laser-Doppler flowmetry (LDF). The expression of COX-2 in hippocampal CAl region was estimated by immunohistochemistry and the contents of prostacyclin I2 (PGI2), thromboxane A2 (TXA2), and ratio of PGIJ2/TXA2 in serum were measured by ELISA kits. Paeoniflorin significantly ameliorated neurological scores, reduced the infarction volume, and increased regional cerebral blood flow relative to the I/R group. In addition, paeoniflorin could inhibit COX-2 expression and the release of TXA2 and prevent the downregulation of PGI2 induced by I/R injury. The neuroprotective effects of paeoniflorin against focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion rats might be attributed to improve the supply of injured hemisphere blood flow and adjust the balance between PGI2/TXA2.

Objective To explore the relationship between the Stathmin gene expression in breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231, MCF-7 and the biological behaviours such as cell growth,adhesion and invasion,and provide experimental basis of breast cancer metastasis for further study.Methods Used RT-PCR and Western Blot methods to detect the Stathmin gene expres-sion levels in MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells,and in the mean while to test the MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cell growth,adhe-sion,invasion ability by CCK-8 cell proliferation experiments,cell adhesion experiments,cell invasion experiments,then, analyed the relationship of Stathmin gene expression and cell growth,adhesion,invasion ability.Results Over-expression levels of Stathmin gene were observed both in the MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells (F=10.173,P<0.05),and furthermore, the expression levels of Stathmin gene in MDA-MB-231 cells was higher than in MCF-7 cells (t=4.562,P<0.05).While, the growth,adhesion and invasion ability of the MDA-MB-231 cells was higher than that of MCF-7 cells(P<0.05).Conclu-sion The higher level of Stathmin gene expression,the stronger breast cancer cells had ability of growth,invasion,and ad-hesive.The Stathmin gene expression levels was closely correlated with breast cancer cell invasive.

Objective To explore the methods and clinical value of transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) in detecting rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST) with head scanning probe.Methods A total of 12 patients had the ultrasonic examination through the rectum with the head scanning probe.Preoperative ultrasonic findings were compared with the pathological results.Results Of the 12 patients,the patients were divided into three groups,including 3 cases with low-degree severity,6 cases with moderate-degree severity and 6 cases with high-degree severity.The lymph node metastasis was not found near intestines.Rectal GIST appeared as a hypoechoic mass with clear limit、regular form and expanded growth under TRUS.The CDFI showed abundant flow in the tumor and TRUS had an overall accuracy rate of 75.0%(9/12)in the diagnosis of rectal GIST.The accuracy of TRUS in the staging diagnosis of rectal GIST was 83.3%(10/12).Conclusion The TRUS with the head scanning probe is of great value for pre-operative diagnosis and staging of rectal GIST.Rectal water window and felicitous check-up technique can enhance the accuracy of TRUS.

Objective To establish a rapid and convenient method for determination of genomic DNA methylation in cells.Methods Five standard substances (dC, mdC, dA, dT and dG) were separated by high-performance capillary electrophoresis.Bare fused-silica capillary was used and eletrophoresis buffer was 48 mmol/L NaHCO3 with 60 mmol/L SDS, pH 9.6.The temperature of separation was controlled at 25 ℃ and a voltage of 20 kV was applied.The separation of the mixture was performed at a wavelength of 256 nm with UV-Vis detection and injection time was 5 seconds at 0.7 psi.Under optimal condition,genomic DNA methylation in methotrexate drug-resistant A549 cells was detected.Results The optimal condition was made by adjusting SDS concentration(40, 60, 80 mmol/L), pH value of running buffer(9.4,9.6, 9.8), voltage(15, 17, 19, 20, 22 kV), injection time(5, 10, 15, 20, 30 s) and capillary temperature(15, 20, 25, 30 ℃).The method for determination of genomic DNA methylation in cells was established.Five substances were completely separated by high-performance capillary electrophoresis in 10 mins.Intra-day coefficient of variation was less than 0.2% and inter-day coefficient of variation was less than 2%.The minimal detection limit was 2 μmol/L.Percentage of mdC in A549 parent cells was (4.80 ±0.52) %.Percentage of mdC in 15, 30, 40 μmol/L methotrexate drug-resistant A549 cells were (4.20±0.44) %, ( 3.70 ± 0.36 ) %, (3.10±0.35 ) %, respectively.Conclusions Genomic DNA methylation can be quantificated by high-performance capillary electrophoresis efficiently, rapidly, conveniently and sensitively.Genomic DNA methylation in methotrexate drug resistance cells decreases significantly.
