Objective To investigate the correlations between plasma levels of carnitine(CT),free fat acid(FFA) and insulin resisitance in children with simple obesity.Methods Fifty-six children diagnosed with simple obesity were enrolled as study group(obesity group),36 healthy children as control group.The concentration of plasma level of insulin was measured by radioimmunoassay(RIA),CT was measured by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC),FFA and triglyceride(TG) were measured by enzymatic-colorimetric assay.Body mass index(BMI) and waist to hip ratio(WHR) were caculated.Insulin sensitivity index (InSI) and insulin resistance index (InRI) were cacula-ted by homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR).SPSS 13.0 software was used to analyze the data.Results The concentration of CT in plasma was (43.67?12.75) ?mol/L in obesity group,(58.31?21.25) ?mol/L in control group,respectively.There was a significant difference between 2 groups (t=2.566 P

In order to study the pathogenesis of HPVl1 and seek for a therapeutic approach of the disease caused by HPV1l. The HPVl1/E2 644bp was amplified by PCR with HPVll plasmid DNA. pGEM-T Easy was used as vector and a clone pTV-644 was obtained.The inserted DNA sequencing was carried out after selecting and identification. According to the hammerhead structure described by Symon's, the possible secondery cleavage sites on HPVll/E2 mRNA were analyzed and the secondery structure of substrate was predicted by computer and ribozyme, excluding analogous sequence of substrate combined with ribozyme were found in the mRNA.The hammerhead ribozyme of RZ2777 against HPV1l/E2 mRNA was seleted to carry out cleavage reaction in vitro. Results of the experiment showed that 644bp substrate derived from HPVll/E2 can be cleavaed site-specifically by ribozyme in vitro. The cleavage activity showed over 85% by choosing the optimun reaction condition, which was not affected by two cis-ribozymes on both 3′-and 5′-ends released by self cleavage,but two flan-king sequences of target RNA influenced the cleavage activity. Results demonstrated that the ribozyme will become a highly effective and specific therapy against HPVll infection.

Gastric bronchogenic cysts （GBCs） is uncommon with atypical clinical features. It is difficult to diagnose by preoperative imaging examinations. Therefore , postoperative histopatho-logical examination is regarded as the golden bacteria in ultimate diagnosis. The treatment of GBCs：ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration and endoscopic mucosal resection is only used for small GBCs with intra-cavity growth pattern. However , GBCs with extra-cavity growth pattern is featured with deeply anatomical position , large size , and prone on attaching to vital blood vessels and organs , which makes laparoscopic resection is the first choice in treatment. The authors introduce the diagnosis and treatment of a case of GBCs attaching to lesser curvature , in order to provide references for clinical diagnosis of GBCs.

Background The tissue-engineered cornea is becoming the hot spot in the ophthalmologic field,while the research of corneal substitute is in the ascendant,because it is more similar to the corneal morpha and easy to survive in vivo.Objective This study was to investigate the biocompatibility of recombinant human type-Ⅲ collagen/poly9 ( 3-( methacryloylamino ) propyl dimethyl ( 3-sulfopropyl ) ammonium hydroxide ) ( PMPDSAH ) interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) (RHC-Ⅲ/PMPDSAH IPN) hydrogel as a tissue-engineered cornea in rabbit eye and its feasibility as the corneal substitute.Methods One hundred and eight rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group( 90 rabbits) and normal control group ( 3 rabbits),and 15 rabbits ( 30 eyes ) used as the donor corneas.RHC-Ⅲ/PMPDSAH IPN,NGF PMPDSAH IPN and corneal grafts were lamellarly transplanted into the right eyes in RHC-Ⅲ/PMPDSAH IPN group,NGF PMPDSAH IPN group and allograft group respectively.The corneal transparency and neovascularization were examined and scored under the slim lamp and compared among three groups using Kraskal-Wallis H test.The corneal epithelization time was observed and compared among these three groups using one way analysis of variance and LSD-t test.The histological examination of corneas was performed at the 3rd day,1st and 2nd week,1 st,3rd and 6th month after the surgery.The immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of K3 in cornea at the 6th month.Results The grafts were well attached in RHC-Ⅲ/PMPDSAH IPN group,NGF PMPDSAH IPN group and allograft group,and no rejection reaction was found throughout 6-month following up.Compared with normal control group,no significant differences were found in the scores of corneal opacification and neovescularization in these three groups (x2 =4.34,P =0.23 ;x2 =2.60,P =0.46 ) at the 6th month.NGF PMPDSAH IPN group achieved reepithelialization in (4.97±0.63) days and was obviously shorted than that in RHC-Ⅲ/PMPDSAH IPN group and allograft group ( t =11.97,P =0.00; t =5.80,P =0.00).The re-epithelialization time in RHC-Ⅲ/PMPDSAH IPN was (6.86±0.71) days,and that of allograft group was (5.87±0.43 ) days,showing a significant difference ( t =6.32,P =0.00).Hematoxylin-eosin staining results demonstrated that implanted materials integrated into the host corneal tissue well and support corneal epithelialization.Part of the material degraded at the 2nd week and degraded completely 1 month later.Regular alignment and distribution of collagen fibers were seen in the regenerated cornea and were similar to those of the normal stroma in 6 months.Immunohistochemistry showed the positive expression of keratin-3 in corneal epithelial cells.Conclusions RHC-Ⅲ/PMPDSAH IPN has a good biocompatibility without toxicity to corneal tissue.Furthermore,NGF can promote the corneal wound-healing and re-epithelialization.The material can be used as safe and reliable corneal substitute after improving the mechanical strength.

Objective To study the possibility of medication treatment in Alport′s syndrome(AS).Methods Two boys with AS,received cyclosporin A(CyA) in combination with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor(ACEI) or only ACEI,which lasted 22 months and 20 months,respectively.Results After the treatments with the medication,there was obvious effectiveness in the 2 patients with relieved symptom and almost normal serum standard,especially the permanent and obvious recession of proteinuria.There was no side effects of medication during the treatment.Conclusion Patients with AS can be treated with CyA and ACEI,with symptomatic recession,as well as suspend the progression of pathology of kidney.

With the deepening of research in recent years, tumor metabolic reprogramming has gradually become the focus of research, and targeting tumor cell metabolism has also become a new means of tumor therapy. The metabolic process affects almost all the physiological processes of the organism, and lipid metabolism is an important part of the metabolic process. Studies have shown that changes in lipid uptake, storage and fatty acid synthesis and decomposition have occurred in a variety of tumors. Abnormal lipid metabolism will promote the rapid proliferation of tumors. Abnormal expression of a variety of key metabolic enzymes in the process of lipid metabolism is the key to tumor progression. The purpose of this paper is to explain the metabolic regulation of lipid metabolism and related metabolic enzymes in hematological tumors, and to provide ideas for the treatment of hematological tumors.
