Objective To observe the influence of swimming training on the expression of nerve growth factor (NGF) and neurotrophins-3 (NT-3) in rats with cerebral infarction,and to explore the underlying neuroprotection mechanism of exercise training on cerebral infarction.Methods Forty-five healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a sham-operation group,a control group and a training group,with 15 rats in each group.Each group was further divided into a 3-day,7-day and 14-day subgroups,which amounts to 9 groups.To establish animal model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats,the intraluminal thread method was applied to cause left middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) for 2 h before reperfusion.The rats of the training group were given swimming training for 10 min,once daily,while those of the sham-operation and control groups were not given any training.Neurological deficits were assessed using Bederson scores.The expression of NGF mRNA and NT-3 mRNA in the ischemiareperfusion pallium was examined using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results The rats of the sham-operation group showed no neurological deficits.At the same time points,the average Bederson scores of the training group were significantly lower than the control group,but significantly higher than the sham group.Moreover,the 14 d training group had the lowest Bederson score (1.20 ±0.45),compared to the value 3 and 7 days after modeling.The expression of NGF mRNA and NT-3 mRNA of ischemic cerebral cortex in the training group was significantly improved when compared to the sham-operation group or the control group.On day 14,the expression of the NGF mRNA (0.66 ± 0.07),and the NT-3 mRNA (0.79 ± 0.06),were significantly higher than those on day 3 and 7.Conclusions Swimming training could increase the expressions of NGF mRNA and NT-3 mRNA in the ischemic cerebral cortex.It might be one of the key mechanisms that exercise training could promote the recovery of damaged neurological function in rats with cerebral infarction.

Objective To evaluate short-term curative effect of endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Methods Twelve cases of infra-renal abdominal aortic aneurysms were checked. Results The av-erage bleeding in the operation was 245 millimeter, the avenage hospitalization time was 8.6 days, and the average abrosia time was 1.5 days. White blood cell, hemoglobin, thrombocyte, hepatic function, and renal function were in the normal limits. Prothrombin time and activated partial thromboplastin time were post-poned after operation, and recovered normally within one week. Complications of operations were as follows:1 case of pulmonary infection, 2 cases of abdominal distention, and 1 case of intraoperafive endoleak. The former two kinds of complications alleviated after conventional treatment, and the latter disappeared naturally after 3 months. Conclusion Endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair is safe, mini-invasive, and has little disturbance for body internal environment.

Objective To investigate effect of peripheral blood miR-21 expression on the clinicopathological features of gastric cancer before and after gastric surgery.Methods The peripheral blood was collected on the operative day and postoperative 7 d in 42 patients with primary gastric cancer surgery.The real-tine quantitative PCR was adopted to detect the relative expression of miR-21 in plasma with U6 as an internal reference gene.Results The plasma miR-21 expression level after gastric cancer operation was significantly down-regulated compared with before operation(P <0.01),the overall relative expression level was dropped by an average of 18.2 times;and it was found that the postoperative miR-21 expression in the patients with the tumor family history was up-regulated,the postoperative plasma miR-21 expression in the patients without the tumor family history was decreased by 22 times compared with before operation(P <0.05);the experimental results also fund that as the patient′s differentiation degree was changed from high to low,the lymph node metastasis rate was gradually increased,while postoperative average miR-21 expression was changed from low to high,showing the relative expression times of miR-21 were distributed in the four differentiated zones of high,middle,middle-low and low,which showed the correlation with the distribution of the lymph node metastasis rate in these four differentiation zones.Conclusion The peripheral blood MiR-21 detection has the clinical significance to early auxiliary diagnosis and the judgement of postoperative malignant degree.

Objective　 To investigate the polymorphisms of CYP1A1 and GSTM1 genes as well as their separate and combined effects on individual susceptibility to lung cancer. Methods　 This study was conducted in Jiangsu Province. In the matched 106 pairs of patients with lung cancer and non-cancer control persons,genomic DNA were prepared from peripheral blood samples.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the characteristics of germline mutations of adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene in pedigrees affected with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP).

METHODSGenomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples from members of the 13 FAP pedigrees. Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) was used to detect large fragment deletions of the APC gene. Subsequently, potential mutation was screened from all exons of the APC gene with PCR amplification and direct sequencing.

RESULTSGermline mutations have been identified in 5 FAP pedigrees, which included c.3184_3187delCAAA, c.5432C>T, c.3925_3928delAAAA and c.3925_3929del AAAAG(in two pedigrees). Small deletional mutations were found primarily in the area of AAAAG tandem repeat sequences.

CONCLUSIONC.3925_3929 located in AAAAG tandem repeats is probably the hot spot for APC gene mutations, which are mostly deletional mutations, especially the 5 bp base deletion at codon 1309.

Objective To study the clinical events and risk factors of in stent restenosis (ISR) during the ＞1 year follow-up period after vertebral artery stenting.Methods Forty-six patients with 48 stents implanted from the Shaoxing No.2 Hospital between January 2010 and October 2016were divided into ISR group (n=8) and ISR-free group (n=38) or clinical events group (n=8)and clinical events-free group (n=38).The influencing factors for their long-term clinical outcome were analyzed after vertebral artery stenting.Results The mean stenosis length was (7.7 ± 4.6mm,the stenosis severity was 80.7％±14.2％,and the residual stenosis was 3.0％±8.4％ before stenting.The mean angiographic follow-up time was 31.6±20.8 months,during which ISR occurred in 8 patients (17.4％).The mean clinical follow-up time was 53.8±27.0 months,during which clinical events occurred in 8 patients (17.4％).Survival analysis showed that ISR usually occurred in the first 20 months and no clinical events occurred in 23 patiemts (50.0％) after vertebral artery stenting.The stenosis was significantly longer in ISR group than in ISR-free group (6.00±2.00 mm vs 2.76±4.14 mm,P=0.003).The diameter of stents was significantly shorter in clinical events group than in clinical events-free group (3.53±0.93 mm vs 4.18±0.67 mm,P=0.024).Conclusion The long-term clinical follow-up outcome is associated with the length and diameter of stents in patients after vertebral artery stenting.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are one of the most important classes of anticancer therapeutics. Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2), which is highly expressed in many types of aggressive cancers including breast and ovarian cancer, has been approved as an ideal target for ADCs. Lidamycin (LDM), developed by Institute of Medicinal Biotechnology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, is an enediyne-containing antibiotic with potent anti-tumor activity. LDM is a promising payload for ADCs. In the present research, using a special site-directed conjugating technology, we made a novel ADC (607-LDM) with a drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) of 2 and composed of the anti-HER2 antibody 607 and LDM. The new ADC exhibited potent antitumor activity against human ovarian cancer SKOV3 and breast cancer BT-474 cells. It also induced apoptosis and G2/M arrest. In nude mice with SKOV3 xenografts and a tumor volume of 150-200 mm³, a single intravenous injection 607-LDM at 1 mg·kg^-1 induced tumor growth inhibition of 72.4%, which was significant compared to either LDM (50.6%) or antibody (30.2%) treatment alone, or both in combination (50.1%, P < 0.05). All animal experiments were performed in accord with National Regulations and approved by the Animal Experiments Ethical Committee of College of Institute of Medicinal Biotechnology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. The novel ADC designed in this study, 607-LDM, is a promising candidate for the treatment of HER2-positive cancers.
