Objective To study the effect of lidocaine on the expression of CD11b/CD18 and MPO in lung injury after hemorrhagic shock in rats. Methods Eighty male Wistar rats weighing 230-270 g were randomly divided into 4 groups: sham operation group ( group Ⅰ, n = 8 ) received operation without shock, shock group ( group Ⅱ, n = 8 ) received hemorrhagic shock without resuscitation , normal saline treatment group (group Ⅲ, n = 32 ) received normal saline after shock, lidocaine treatment group ( group Ⅳ, n = 32 ) received lidocaine after shock. The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital sodium 40 mg? kg-1 . Hemorrhagic shock was induced by withdrawing blood from right femoral artery at the rate of 2.0 ml?kg-1? min-1 , MAP was maintained at 40 mm Hg for 60 min before resuscitation. Direct arterial MAP and HR were continuously monitored. Group Ⅳwas received lidoacaine at the beginning of resuscitation with a bonus dose 2.0 mg? kg-1 and then followed continuous infusion1.0mg?kg-1?h-1 for 2 h. Group III was received the same dose of normal saline. Flow cytometric analysis was used to assess the expression of CD11b/CD18 on leukocyte and the change of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in the lung was studied at the end of shock (groupⅡ ) and at 2,4, 8, 12 h after resuscitation (group Ⅲ, group Ⅳ) . The rats were sacrificed and the piece of lung was immediately removed for electron microscopic examination. Result In group Ⅲand group Ⅳ ,the expression of CD11b/CD18 on PMNs and MPO in lung were increased significantly compared with Group Ⅰ. Microscopic examination indicated the longer time of reperfusion ,the more serious injury of the lung. And in groupⅣ ,the changes of CD11b/CD18 and MPO were reduced as compared with group Ⅲ (P

Objective To investigate the social cognition and its correlation with social function for attenuated psychosis syndrome (APS). Methods From August, 2014 to December, 2015, 39 patients with APS were recruited as research group. Another 40 normal healthy persons with similar gender, ages, and education levels were selected as control group. The Faux Pas Recognition Test (FPR) and Yoni Task Test were used to evaluate the social cognition, and Social Disability Screening Schedule (SDSS) was used to evaluate the social function. The correlation between FPR, Yoni Task Test and SDSS in the research group was analyzed. Results In FPR test, the faux pas questions score, control questions score and total score of FPR were significantly lower in the research group than in the normal control group (t>2.378, P<0.01). In Yoni Task Test, the cognitive theory of mind total score (Cog), cognitive theory of mind first-level score (Cog1) and cog-nitive theory of mind second-level score (Cog2), and affective theory of mind total score (Aff), affective theory of mind first-level score (Aff1) and affective theory of mind second-level score (Aff2) were significantly lower in the research group than in the normal control group (t>2.341, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in control theory of mind total score (Phy), control theory of mind first-level score (Phy1) and control theory of mind second-level score (Phy2) between two groups (t<1.430, P>0.05). The SDSS total score was signifi-cantly higher in the research group than in the normal control group (t=13.032, P<0.001). In the research group, FPR's faux pas questions score and FPR's total score were negatively correlated with SDSS score (r>0.473, P<0.01); in Yoni task test, Cog's total score and factor scores, Aff's total score and factor scores were negatively correlated with SDSS score (r>0.448, P<0.01). Conclusion Social cognition func-tion in APS is impaired. It is associated with social dysfunction in APS.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of combining ultrasonic with three-dimensional imaging guided microwave ablation in treating large hepatocellular carcinoma.Method The clinical data of 262 patients with large unresectable liver cancer who were admitted to the Air Force General Hospital from Jan 2011 to Jun 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Of these patients,136 underwent transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE),and the remaining 126 patients underwent combined ultrasonic with three-dimensional imaging guided microwave ablation (MWA).The AFP levels,tumor ablation rate,postoperative complication rates and survival rates between the two groups were compared.Result There were significant differences in the AFP levels in the two groups before and after surgery (P ＜0.05),but no significant differences were found between the 2 groups (P ＞ 0.05).A significant difference was also observed on tumor ablation rate.In the MWA group,11 patients (8.73％) developed complications,while 21 patients (15.44％) in the TACE group developed complications,(P ＜ 0.05).The 3-month,9-month,1-year,2-year and 3-year survival rates were 99％,95％,81％,70％ and 57％ in the MWA group,and 98％,94％,63％,36％ and 28％ in the TACE group.There were significant differences in the 1-year,2-year and 3-year survival rates,but no significant difference were observed in the 3-month and 9-month survival rates.Conclnsion Combined ultrasonic with three-dimensional imaging guided microwave ablation increased the rate of tumor ablation and prolonged the survival time of patients with large hepatocellular carcinoma.

Reduced radiosensitivity of lung cancer cells represents a pivotal obstacle in clinical oncology. The hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α plays a crucial role in radiosensitivity, but the detailed mechanisms remain elusive. A relationship has been suggested to exist between hypoxia and autophagy recently. In the current study, we studied the effect of hypoxia-induced autophagy on radioresistance in lung cancer cell lines. A549 and H1299 cells were cultured under normoxia or hypoxia, followed by irradiation at dosage ranging from 0 to 8 Gy. Clonogenic assay was performed to calculate surviving fraction. EGFP-LC3 plasmid was stably transfected into cells to monitor autophagic processes. Western blotting was used to evaluate the protein expression levels of HIF-1α, c-Jun, phosphorylated c-Jun, Beclin 1, LC3 and p62. The mRNA levels of Beclin 1 were detected by qRT-PCR. We found that under hypoxia, both A549 and H1299 cells were radio-resistant compared with normoxia. Hypoxia-induced elevated HIF-1α protein expression preferentially triggered autophagy, accompanied by LC3 induction, EGFP-LC3 puncta and p62 degradation. In the meantime, HIF-1α increased downstream c-Jun phosphorylation, which in turn upregulated Beclin 1 mRNA and protein expression. The upregulation of Beclin 1 expression, instead of HIF-1α, could be blocked by SP600125 (a specific inhibitor of c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase), followed by suppression of autophagy. Under hypoxia, combined treatment of irradiation and chloroquine (a potent autophagy inhibitor) significantly decreased the survival potential of lung cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. In conclusion, hypoxia-induced autophagy through evaluating Beclin1 expression may be considered as a target to reverse the radioresistance in cancer cells.

Objective To evaluate the effect of long-term microwave radiation on the expression of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor(NMDAR),brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) and related molecules in signal pathways in the hippocampus of rats.Methods Fifty male Wistar rats were exposed to microwave radiation at an average power density of 0,5,10,20 and 30 mW/cm2for 6 min/time,3 times/week,and for 6 weeks,which were sacrificed and the hippocampus was quickly removed at 14 d and 28 d after exposure.The changes in NMDAR (NR1,NR2A,NR2B),postsynaptic density protein(PSD)-95,cortactin,BDNF and tyrosine kinase receptor B (TrkB) in hippocampal neurons of each group were detected by Western blotting and image analysis techniques.Results Compared with the control group,the expressions of related proteins did not change significantly after microwave irradiation of 5 mW/cm2 at each time point.After 20 mW/cm2 microwave radiation,the expression of NR1 was increased at 14 and 28 d (P ＜0.05),the expression of NR2A was increased at 28 d (P ＜ 0.05),but the expression of NR2B was decreased at 14 and 28 d (P ＜ 0.05).At a average power density of 30 mW/cm2,the expressions of NR1,NR2A and PSD-95 and the expression of NR2B were decreased at 14 and 28 d(P ＜0.05),and cortactin,BDNF and TrkB were increased at 14 d after irradiation (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The effect of different dosages of long-term microwave radiation on the proteins of NMDAR and its signal pathway related molecules is different.Microwave radiation may affect the NMDAR of postsynaptic information transmission through the BDNF-TrkB signaling pathways,which might play an important role in the impediment of learning and memory function caused by microwave radiation.
