Objective To investigate the correlation between the combination of smoking with CYP2E1-RsaⅠ and GSTT1 genes polymorphisms and pancreatic cancer. Methods The genetic polymorphisms of CYP2E1-RsaⅠ and GSTT1 were analyzed by polymorphism-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique in peripheral blood leukocytes of 150 pancreatic cancer cases and 150 non-cancer controls. Results The frequency of CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1) and GSTT1(-) was 38.7% and 69.3% in pancreatic cancer cases and 20.7% and 44.7% in healthy controls, respectively. Statistical tests showed significant differences in the frequencies between the two groups (χ~2=15.75, P<0.01; χ~2=18.62, P<0.01). The risk of pancreatic cancer patients with CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1) was significantly higher than that of controls (OR=3.19, 95% CI=2.53-4.26). The individuals who carried with GSTT1(-) had a higher risk of pancreatic cancer (OR=2.85, 95% CI=1.92-4.64). Combined analysis of the polymorphisms showed that the percentage of CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1)/GSTT1(-) in pancreatic cancer and control groups was 30.7% and 6.7%, respectively (χ~2= 42.39, P<0.01). People who carried with CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1)/GSTT1(-) had a higher risk of pancreatic cancer (OR=16.63, 95% CI=8.94-22.01). The smoking ratewas significantly higher in the case group than in the control group (OR=2.74, 95% CI=1.32-4.58, P<0.01), and statistical analysis suggested an interaction between smoking and CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1) or GSTT1(-) genotypes polymorphisms which increased the risk of pancreatic cancer (OR=8.84, 95% CI=5. 51-11.62; OR=20.40, 95% CI=4.98-29.53). Conclusion CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1) and GSTT1(-) are the risk factors in pancreatic cancer. Smoking is also related to the susceptibility to pancreatic cancer. There may be a synergetic interaction among CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1) and GSTT1(-) and smoking on the elevated susceptibility of pancreatic cancer.

Objective To investigate the association between syncope and transient suppression of sinoatrial node in patients with preexcitation syndrome and paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT).Methods Twelve patients (male 8,female 4;age range:19-49 years) were enrolled due to WPW(Wolff-Parkinson-White) syndrome and syncope when the tachycardia terminated.The function of sinoatrial node was evaluated with clinical electrophysiologic study,and then radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) or antitachycardia pacemaker were optimized for the patients with a follow-up of 2 to 5 years.Results Electrocardiographic features of the 12 patients were: ventricular preexcitation (type A in 7 and type B in 5) and long pause when tachycardias ended up.Electrophysiologic study revealed the function of sinoatrial node was normal.Four patients received antitachycardia pacing therapy,5 underwent RFCA,and 3 received both.The 2 to 5 years follow-up found no relapse of PSVT associated syncope.Conclusion Transient suppression of sinoatrial node might explain the mechanism of syncope with preexcitation and PSVT.However,the reason why such a small group of patients differ from the majority of preexcited cases in clinical course remains to be unsettled.The first choice of prevention and treatment for these patients should be eliminating PSVT.Conventional pacemaker implantation for preventing syncope seems to be unnecessary.

Objective To approach the capacity of erythrocyte regulating IL-8 in patients with primary hepatocarcinoma (PHC) by a new experimental system of hemaimmune. Methods 0.2ml suspension of cancer cells (S180: 5?10~6/ml) or NS were added into 0.2ml anticoagulant suspension of whole blood cells or leukocytes and 0.3ml plasma, then incubated for 1 h at 37℃. The content of IL-8 was determined by ELISA. Results In the patients with PHC, the IL-8 levels (pg/ml) in experimental and control groups of whole blood cells, and in experimental and control groups of leukocytes were 376.35?243.96, 353.64?271.92, 461.27?277.11 and 424.97?278.93, respectively; while in the normal human, they were 11.36?6.93, 4.98?4.35, 29.41?30.66 and 20.77?24.20, respectively. In the patients with PHC, the activation rates of cancer cells in the experimental groups of both whole blood cell and leukocyte were 0.22?0.24 and 0.25?0.53, respectively; while in normal human, they were 2.49?2.33 and 0.75?0.21, respectively. In the patients with PHC, the IL-8 adsorption rate of erythrocyte in both experimental and control groups of whole blood cell were 0.22?0.18 and 0.17?0.33, respectively; while in normal human, they were 1.18?2.29 and 0.86?0.49, respectively. The IL-8 activated rates of erythrocyte in the patients with PHC was much lower than in the normal human (P

Objective To research the spatiotemporal pattern of N-cadherin expression during development of rat cardiomyocytes and age-related changes of N-cadherin expression. Methods Using immunohistochemical method,myocardial N-cadherins distribution was investigated in fetal rat and postnatal development(1 postnatal day to old rat),and quantitied by HIPAS-1000 computerized image analytical instrument. Results The expression of N-cadherin was located in myocardium of atrial and ventricule and septum interventriculare and papillary muscles.The N-cadherin immunolabeling was found in myocyte membranes and within cytoplasm in fetal rat heart.From neonatal to infant rat,the pattern of N-cadherin immunolabeling changed progressively,from being dispersed over the entire cell surface as in the fetal to the transverse terminals of the myocytes,toward the distribution within the intercalated disk.From young to old rat heart,the typical N-cadherin was located in transversely orientated intercalated disk.The percentage of N-cadherin immune postive area in rat ventricular myocardium showed a progressively changement with age.Conclusion The present paper demonstrated that the N-cadherin expression exists progressively with ages and the changing pattern of N-cadherin is closely related with development of the intercalated disk in rat myocardium.The mechanical coupling provided by adherens junctions is essential for the stable cell-cell contact.
