Objective To explore the influencing factors of daunorubicin (DNR) induced apoptosis in Jurkat cells of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Methods Jurkat cells were treated with different concentrations of DNR(0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5 and 1 μg/mL)or pretreated with N-acetylcysteine (NAC). Cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay, cell apoptosis was observed by Hoechst/PI, reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and apoptosis were determined by flow cytometry, and the expression of survivin, bax, bcl-2 and bcl-xl mRNA was examined by RT-PCR. Results DNR siguificantly inhibited the proliferation of Jurkat cells. After treatment with 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1 μg/mL DNR and pretreated with NAC for 24 h, ROS levels were (7.98±0.55)%, (8.88±0.86)%, (9.46±0.98)%, (17.48±2.98)%, (24.46±2.43)% and (11.59±1.29)%, respectively, and cell apoptosis rates were (11.41±1.44)%, (34.96±3.32)%, (45.58± 3.12)%, (84.19±2.65)%, (87.93±1.74)% and (80.47±0.63)%, respectively. After pretreatment with NAC, the levels of ROS were siguifieantly inhibited (P < 0.01). There was no significant difference in apoptosis rates between treatment with 0.5μg/mL DNR and pretreatment with NAC(P>0.05). The expression of bax mRNA was down regulated and the expression of survivin, bcl-2 and bcl-xl was up regulated (P < 0.05). Conclusion DNR can induce apoptosis of Jurkat cells. ROS may participate in the DNR induced Jurkat cell apoptosis, and apoptosis-related gene bax, bcl-2, bcl-xl and survivin may interact with ROS in the regulation of DNR induced Jurkat cell apoptosis.

AlM:To evaluate the effect of intralamellar cryolysis of cornea with amniotic membrane transplantation on painful bullous keratopathy ( PBK) .?METHODS: Randomly selected 156 cases ( 156 eyes ) with PBK who underwent surgery of intralamellar cryolysis of cornea with amniotic membrane transplantation. Followed up with 2 ~ 3mo, the symptoms of eye pain, corneal epithelial blisters, foreign body sensation and postoperative complications were observed.?RESULTS:Pain symptoms disappeared in all patients, and corneal epithelial blisters disappeared in 130 cases (83. 3%). All agonizing pain symptoms disappeared, but patients had occasional foreign - body sensation, occasional corneal epithelial blisters in 24 cases ( 15. 4%) . Two weeks after surgery, corneal stroma dissolved, 2 cases ( 1. 3%) of them were cured by conjunctival flap cover.?CONCLUSlON:The operation of intralamellar cryolysis of cornea with amniotic membrane transplantation can relieve the pain in 98. 7% of PBK patients and simple therapy for treating PBK. Hence, it's be worth to advocate for relieve the pain of patients.

Objective To develop and charaterize a series of Poloxamer-and Carbopol-based in situ gel for ophthalmic use as to enhance the ability of drug to retain in eyes and delay drug release.Methods The gel was prepared using Poloxamer 407/188 and Carbopol 974P as gelling agent and viscosity enhancer,respectively.Rheological characteristics were evaluated and behaviour of drug release in vitro was investigated by modified Franz diffusion cells.Results The rheological study indicated that the gel was physically entangled polymer solutions at 20 ℃ and then converted into a network structure with secondary bonds at 35 ℃.The gel released the drug molecules slowly in 4 h.The best fit model was Higuchi matrix model(r=0.992 3).Formulations consisting of Poloxamer 188 and Carbopol 974P were proved to be able to decrease the drug release speed efficiently.The impact on elastic modulus G" of the gel caused by those two were different.Conclusion An in situ gel with suitable sol-gel transition temperature and satisfactory release pattern could be achieved by adjusting the ratio of Poloxamer 407 to Poloxamer 188.The developed formulations have the ability to prolong the ocular residence time,which suggests it may be a new durg delivery system with bright future.

Pemphigus is a severe chronic autoimmune mucocutaneous bullous disease. Glucocorticoids are considered as the first line of treatment for this disease. Dysfunctional uterine bleeding is also observed as a result of hypothalamic-pituitary-ovary axis dysfunction. This study reported one female patient with pemphigus vulgaris complicated with dysfunctional uterine bleeding upon systemic glucocorticoid usage. Before this disease was diagnosed, the patient experienced normal menstruation. The mechanism of dysfunctional uterine bleeding triggered by glucocorticoids is elucidated on the basis of case studies and literature review.

Objective:To establish the reference range of red blood cell parameters within 24 hours after birth of premature infants with different gestational ages and genders.Methods:According to the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria, a retrospective analysis was performed in premature infants who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2019. These newborns were delivered in the obstetrics department of our hospital or came from other parts of Jilin Province. All of their radial artery blood were collected within 24 hours after birth. According to the blood examination results, we analyzed reference range of red blood cell parameters of these premature infants.Results:With the increase of gestational age, the number of RBC, HGB, HCT, MCHC gradually increases and the number of MCV, MCH gradually decreases. There are differences in some red blood cell parameters of premature infants with 34 week≤gestational age<37 week between different genders. Compared with boys, the number of RBC, HGB, HCT and MCV in girls were higher. The number of RBC in premature infants with 23 week≤gestational age<28 week and 28 week ≤ gestion age<34 week are 2.58×10 12-5.45×10 12/L and 2.97×10 12-5.86×10 12/L respectively. In the group of premature infants with 34 week ≤gestion age<37 week, the number of RBC in boys is 3.38×10 12-5.83×10 12/L, while the number of RBC in girls is 3.18-5.89×10 12/L. There're no difference in RDW among preterm infants with different gestational ages and genders, which is 14.8%-20.6%. Conclusions:The study established the reference range of red blood cell parameters of 23 w≤gestational age<37 w premature infants within 24 hours after the birth and explored the differences in red blood cell parameters of premature infants with different gestational ages and genders.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and clinical value of combined clonidine and sleep-deprivation induced seizures for ictal brain SPECT imaging in patients with epilepsy. Methods Fiftytwo epilepsy patients were given oral clonidine plus sleep-deprivation to induce seizures with video-electroencephalogram (VEEG) monitoring. Forty-seven patients were selected as control group, whose seizures were induced by sleep-deprivation only. 99Tcm-ethylcysteinate dimer (ECD) was injected within 30 s since a clinical sign and/or a typical EEG discharge of epilepsy was recognized. Brain SPECT was performed 30 min after 99TcmECD injection. X2-test was performed by using software SPSS 10. 0. Results One to two hrs after oral intake of clonidine plus sleep-deprivation, 75% (39/52) patients were induced seizures, including 92.3% (36/39) with subclinical seizures and 7.7% (3/39) with clinical seizures. Ictal brain SPECT localized the lesions with high uptake of 99Tcm-ECD in 37 (94.9%) patients. In control group, 38.3% ( 18/47) were induced epileptic seizures, including 77.8% (14/18) with subclinical seizures and 22.2% (4/18) with clinical seizures. The induction rate of epileptic seizures in clonidine plus sleep-deprivation group was significantly higher than that of control group (X2 = 13.614, P < 0.01 ). However, there was no significant difference in clinical seizures between the two groups (X2 = 1.253, P > 0.05 ). Conclusions The combination of oral intake of clonidine and sleep-deprivation could increase the induction rate of epileptic seizures and it is effective for epilepsy SPECT imaging.
