Objective To evaluate the role of necroptosis in hyperoxia-induced acute lung injury(ALI)in preadolescent rats.Methods A total of 72 clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 14 days,weighing 40-50 g,were divided into 3 groups(n＝24 each)by using a random number table method: control group(group C),hyperoxia-induced ALI group(group ALI)and hyperoxia-induced ALI and necrostatin-1 group(group ALI+N).The rats of group ALI+N was intraperitoneally injected with ne-crostatin-1 1.0 mg/kg once a day for 3 consecutive days.The rats were intraperitoneally injected with dime-thyl sulfoxide 0.2 ml/kg once a day for 3 consecutive days in C and ALI groups.The animals were sacrificed at 72 h after inhaling oxygen,and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)was collected for determination of interleukin-6(IL-6)and IL-8 concentrations(by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay),superoxide dis-mutase(SOD)activity(by xanthine oxidase method),and malondialdehyde(MDA)concentration(by thiobarbituric acid method).Lung tissues were taken for measurement of wet/dry weight ratio(W/D ratio)and for examination of the pathological changes(with a light microscope)and ultrastructure of lung tissues(with an electron microscope).The injured alveolus rate(IAR)was calculated.The expression of recep-tor-interacting protein kinase 1(RIPK1),RIPK3 and mixed-lineage kinase domain-like protein(MLKL)in lung tissues was detected by Western blot.Results Compared with group C,the concentrations of IL-6,IL-8 and MDA in BALF were significantly increased,the activity of SOD in BALF was decreased,the W/D ratio and IAR of lung tissues were increased,the expression of RIPK1,RIPK3 and MLKL in lung tis-sues was up-regulated(P＜0.05),and the pathological damage was accentuated in group ALI.Compared with group ALI,the concentrations of IL-6,IL-8 and MDA in BALF were significantly deceased,the ac-tivity of SOD in BALF was increased,the W/D ratio and IAR of lung tissues were decreased,the expres-sion of RIPK1,RIPK3 and MLKL in lung tissues was down-regulated(P＜0.05),and the pathological damage was significantly attenuated in group ALI+N.Conclusion Necroptosis is involved in the patho-physiological process of hyperoxia-induced ALI in preadolescent rats.

Objective: To evaluate the role of necroptosis in hyperoxia-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in preadolescent rats. Methods: A total of 72 clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 14 days, weighing 40-50 g, were divided into 3 groups (n=24 each) by using a random number table method: control group (group C), hyperoxia-induced ALI group (group ALI) and hyperoxia-induced ALI and necrostatin-1 group (group ALI+ N). The rats of group ALI+ N was intraperitoneally injected with necrostatin-1 1.0 mg/kg once a day for 3 consecutive days.The rats were intraperitoneally injected with dimethyl sulfoxide 0.2 ml/kg once a day for 3 consecutive days in C and ALI groups.The animals were sacrificed at 72 h after inhaling oxygen, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected for determination of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 concentrations (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity (by xanthine oxidase method), and malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration (by thiobarbituric acid method). Lung tissues were taken for measurement of wet/dry weight ratio (W/D ratio) and for examination of the pathological changes (with a light microscope) and ultrastructure of lung tissues (with an electron microscope). The injured alveolus rate (IAR) was calculated.The expression of receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), RIPK3 and mixed-lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) in lung tissues was detected by Western blot. Results: Compared with group C, the concentrations of IL-6, IL-8 and MDA in BALF were significantly increased, the activity of SOD in BALF was decreased, the W/D ratio and IAR of lung tissues were increased, the expression of RIPK1, RIPK3 and MLKL in lung tissues was up-regulated (P<0.05), and the pathological damage was accentuated in group ALI.Compared with group ALI, the concentrations of IL-6, IL-8 and MDA in BALF were significantly deceased, the activity of SOD in BALF was increased, the W/D ratio and IAR of lung tissues were decreased, the expression of RIPK1, RIPK3 and MLKL in lung tissues was down-regulated (P<0.05), and the pathological damage was significantly attenuated in group ALI+ N. Conclusion Necroptosis is involved in the pathophysiological process of hyperoxia-induced ALI in preadolescent rats.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the treatment of rectal laterally spreading tumors (LSTs) .Methods:The clinical data of 20 patients with LSTs ,who were admitted in Jiangyin Tradi‐tional Chinese Medicine Hospital from September 2012 to September 2014 ,were retrospectively analyzed .According to the su‐perficial morphology of rectal mucosa ,the subtypes of LSTs were determined by endoscopy .Tumor size and morphological characteristics ,pathological features and operation time of ESD were counted .Furthermore ,postoperative complications and recurrence were followed up and statistically analyzed .Results:There were 8 (40% ) cases of LST granular type and 12 (60% ) cases of LST nongranular type .There were 18 cases of adenomas associated with low grade neoplasia and 2 (10% ) cases of high grade intraepithelial neoplasia .There were 7 cases of tubulovillous adenoma and 13 cases of tubular adenoma .The mean diameter of lesions was (33 .9 ± 11 .5) mm .The enbloc resection rate was 100% and the average time of ESD operations was (40 ± 15) min .The postoperative bleeding rate was 10% (2/20) and no perforation occurred .The mean follow‐up period was 12 .6 months ,during which no recurrence was found .Conclusions:With high enbloc resection rate and low complication rate ,ESD is a safe and efficacious treatment for rectal LSTs ,especially for the lesions larger than 2 cm which have higher potential of malignancy .

Next day after modeling， blank group and model group were given constant volume of normal temperature water intragastrically； administration group was given relevant solution 2 mL/100 g intragastrically， q12 h， 4 times in total. After last medication， urine contents of 17-OHCS， CAs substances （A， NE， DA） and serum contents of ACTH and D-β-H were determined by ELISA. RESULTS： Compared with blank group， the contents of 17-OHCS， A， NE and DA in urine， the contents of ACTH and D-β-H in serum were decreased significantly in model group （P＜0.01）. Compared with model group， the contents of 17-OHCS （Fuzi lizhong pills group， cimetidine group， gaoshidi， gaoshigao， dashigao， hongshigao， caoshigao and yishigao groups， ethyl acetate part groups of 5 medicinal materials， dazhenggao， hongzhenggao， caozhenggao and yizhenggao groups， gaoshuigao， dashuigao and hongshuigao groups）， A （Fuzi lizhong pills group， cimetidine group， gaoshigao， dashigao， hongshidi， hongshigao， caoshidi， caoshigao and yishigao groups， ethyl acetate part groups of 5 medicinal materials， gaozhenggao， dazhenggao， hongzhengdi， hongzhenggao， caozhenggao and yizhenggao groups， hongshuigao group）， NE （Fuzi lizhong pills group， cimetidine group， petroleum ether part， ethyl acetate part and n-butanol part groups of 5 medicinal materials， gaoshuigao， dashuigao and hongshuigao groups）， DA [Fuzi lizhong pills group， cimetidine group， petroleum ether part （except for gaoshidi group） and ethyl acetate part groups of 5 medicinal materials， gaozhenggao， dazhenggao， hongzhenggao， caozhenggao and yizhenggao groups， hongshuigao group] in urine， serum contents of ACTH [Fuzi lizhong pills group， petroleum ether part （except for gaoshidi， dashidi and caoshidi groups） and ethyl acetate part （except for dayidi and hongyidi groups） groups of 5 medicinal materials， hongzhenggao group， dashuigao group]， and D-β-H [Fuzi lizhong pills group， gaoshigao， dashigao， hongshidi， hongshigao and yishigao groups， ethyl acetate part groups of 5 medicinal materials （except for dayidi， hongyidi and yiyidi groups）， dazhenggao and hongzhenggao groups， hongshuigao group] were increased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The contents of 17-OHCS and D-β-H in dashigao group， the contents of ACTH and D-β-H in caoshigao group and the contents of D-β-H in gaoshigao and yishigao groups were significantly lower than hongshigao group. The contents of DA in gaoyigao， caoyigao and yiyigao groups as well as the contents of D-β-H in gaoyigao， hongyigao， caoyigao and yiyigao groups were significantly lower than dayigao group； the contents of DA in gaoyigao and caoyigao groups were significantly lower than hongyigao group， the contents of ACTH in gaoyigao， dayigao， caoyigao and yiyigao groups were significantly higher than hongyigao group.
