Ischemia.reperfusion injury of the liver consists of two distinct phases.The early phase occurs within 2 to 4 hours after reperfusion,which may be mainly induced by the increased production of oxygen radical species.The late phase results from inflammatory responses at 6 hours or more after reperfusion,leading to the progression of liver damage.The mechanism of IRIof the liver is a complex and muhifactorial process.The review outlines the current progress in the understanding of hepatic IRI from microcirculation,cellular,andmolecular levels,respectively.

Glucocorticoid is the first choice for the treatment of nephrotic syndrome in children. But due to various reasons, nephrotic syndrome becomes hormone dependent or resistant, and progresses into refractory nephrotic syndrome in some children, which forces the clinician to constantly look for new immunosuppressants in order to alleviate the condition.,Rituximab injection (RTX) as a monoclonal antibody against CD20 has been widely used in the treatment of a variety of immune diseases in recent years. The use of RTX in refractory nephrotic syndrome in children, its main adverse effects and possible mechanisms was reviewed in this article.

Objective To investigate the symptoms of diarrhea and the behavior of medical treatment after diarrhea in 2013 in Tianjin City, and provid background information for the future population monitoring. Methods A stratified sam?pling method was used to investigate the symptoms, medical treatment and self medication behavior of 4028 residents in Tianjin. Results The number of people who had diarrhea in 2013 was 324, and the incidence rate of diarrhea was 8.04%. Diarrhea was mainly occurred in May-October (n=241, 74.38%). The incidence of diarrhea was the highest in 60-74 years old group, followed by 75-years old and 0-14 years old groups. The incidence of diarrhea was the lowest in 15-29 years old grouop. A total of 121 patients with diarrhea chose to go to hospital (47.08%), 78 patients chose to buy medicine for treat?ment (30.35%) and 58 patients did not do any disposal (22.57%). Among the patients with diarrhea, the highest proportion of patients chose to go to the first grade and the following medical institutions (68.59%, 83/121). There were 14.05%(17/121) and 17.36%(21/121) patients chose to go to the second and the third levels of medical institutions for the treatment. The av?erage cost for patients with diarrhea was 60 (20, 200) yuan. The purchasing expenditure median was 20 (11,50) yuan. The medical spending was more than the purchase of medicines (Z=2.412, P<0.05). The average cost of medical treatment was more higher in the second and the third levels of medical institutions than that of the first medical institution ( Z=50.709,P<0.05). The average cost of medical treatment was in turn increased for patients with diarrhea treated in Baodi county, Xiqing county, Hangu county and Heping county (Z=74.282,P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in medical expenses be?tween patients with different ages and patient with or without medical insurance. Conclusion There are high incidence of diarrhea in patients under 15 years old and patients over 60 years old. Residents suffering from diarrhea mainly choose their own medicine and the treatment in the first and following medical institutions.

Objective To investigate the effect of different composed combination of EGCG and cisplatin on human colon adenocarcinoma cell line SW620 and the related mechanisms. Methods SW620 cells at exponential phase were treated with cisplatin(5 mmol.L-1)and EGCG(0, 25, 50 and 100 mmol.L-1).Seventy hours after the cultivation, cell proliferation was detected with MTT;the percentage of apoptotic cells was determined by flow cytometry;expression levels of JAK2, p-JAK2, p-STAT3, STAT3, Bax, Bcl-2, cleavage-PARP, and cleavage-caspase3 were detected by Western blotting. Results The SW620 cell proliferation rate was(95±5)%,(67±5)%,(42±5)%(22±4)% and the apoptotic rat was 5%, 15%, 35%, 57%in the 0, 25,50, 100 mmol.L-1 EGCG groups, respectively.Moreover, EGCG up-regulated the expression of Bax, cleavage-PARP and cleavage-caspase3(P<0.05)and down-regulated the expression of p-JAK2, p-STAT3 and Bcl-2(P<0.05)in a dose-dependent manner, but had no influence on the expression of JAK2 and STAT3(P>0.05). Conclusion EGCG can promote cisplatin-induced apoptosis and proliferation inhibition of human colon adenocarcinoma cell lines of SW620 by suppressing JAK2/STAT3 gignaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the effects of IL-15 eukaryotic expression plasmid on the Ag-specific immune responses induced by HPV 16 E7 vaccine in mice.Methods An eukaryotic expression plasmid encoding IL-15 gene coding region was constructed and named as pcDNA3.1IL-15.Female BALB/c mice were injected intramuscularly with pcDNA3.1-IL-15 and HPV16 E7 gene vaccine.After the immunization,the concentration of serum IFN-? were tested.Single-cell suspensions of splenocytes were prepared from mice and were re-stimulated with HPV16 E7 protein.Then,the T cell proliferation assay was measured by the MTT method.Results The concentration of serum IFN-? in mice after co-injection with pcDNA3.1-IL-15 and pcDNA3.1-E7 was raised to 414.1pg/ml,which was significantly higher than that of mice co-injected with pcDNA3.1 and pcDNA3.1-E7 or mice injected with pcDNA3.1-E7 only(P

Hepatoblastoma (HB) is the most common malignant tumor of the liver in children,and it is most prevalent in children under 5 years old.The overall prognosis of childhood HB has been improved significantly due to multidisciplinary team approach consisting with surgical resection and combination chemotherapy.Nevertheless,the clinical outcomes of metastatic and relapsed HB remain to be poor.This paper makes a brief review on the pathogenesis,diagnosis and treatment of HB.

Biochemical markers of bone metabolism are some of the final product which are released into the blood during the process of bone resorption or bone formation.Accumulative evidence shows that biochemical markers of bone metabolism through enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) are more sensitive and specific than imaging examination.Moreover,biochemical markers of bone metabolism also display their superiorities on the early diagonosis,monitoring efficacy and prognosis evaluation in patients with bone metastases.Applications of biochemical markers of bone metabolism combined with imaging examination are more value for the early diagonosis,monitoring efficacy and prognosis evaluation in patients with bone metastases.
